The annual tax budget session waa
held Wed. with conelderable oratori
cal fervor, directed at the elusive
nesa of the dollar. Economy waa
urged, and efficiency demanded, with
great gusto. Several asked "what will
become of the country?" Nobody
knew, but It seemed to be In the air
It would make It aomehow. There
waa no demand for economy on the
roads. The lsst application waa not

Carpenter that In their present cor
rugated condition, the asvlng Is not
worth the loss In Jarred looee false

the Applegat spoke briefly for 30
minutes, and his remarks Indicated

last year, or the year before. Kelvin
Hogan took a awlne at a power lawn
mower for the cthse lawn. He thought
thla was giving the "Machine Age"
another halt-nelson on the workers.
Mr. Hogan waa asked If his antipathy
for mschlnea was strong enough for
him to furnish the power to mow
the cthse lawn. He did not answer,
either In the negative or affirma
tive. It waa feared that the mention
of the word "power" might bring
out some unkind remarks about
Oopco, but Ace Hubbard resumed

Why This Misrepresentation?
WE can't believe many people are deceived by the campaign
of misrepresentation against the sewage disposal bond
issue. It is one of the feeblest and most transparent attempts to
hoodwink the voters we have seen for many a moon.
Here are a few of the things being passed around via the
grapevine by those who for some MYSTERIOUS reason wish to
see the bonds defeated:
That this is a vote for a $100,000 bond issue.
That this $100,000 is in addition to another $100,000 already
voted.
That if the bonds carry, $25,000 will have to be paid some big
eastern interest for patent rights.
That a vote for the bonds means a vote to increase taxes
increase water rates, put another $100,000 on the city's already
large bonded indebtedness.
That the sewage disposal plant isn't needed, all that is
needed is to divert surplus drinking water from the city reser
voir to Bear creek, etc., etc., etc.
Not one of these statements is true, and most of them have
absolutely no basis whatever in fact.
DT three to one the people of Medford voted for one sewage
disposal bond issue. But because of technical flaws in that
measure, and certain objections on the part of the state board of
health, a vote on a revised proposal had to be secured. Such
action invalidates the first bond issue entirely.
The present sewage disposal bond issue is for $100,000, and
this is all that is, has been or will be voted for this purpose. Of
this amount only $78,000 of the bonds will be issued however
for the government has agreed to donate $22,000 in cash. If
the city should be able to sell these bonds to some private bond
house, so the government would not have to take them over,
the PWA will increase this cash donation to $26,000.
If the bonds carry no $25,000 patent rights will have to be
paid. If a certain type .of disposal is selected, a maximum
amount for patent rights will be $3000. This low charge has
already been agreed upon by the holders of the patent.
VOTING the bonds will not increase city taxes a dime nor will
the water rates be raised.. The bonds will be paid back by a
6 diversion of PRESENT water revenues to a proper sinking
fund. Whether the bonds are voted or defeated the tax levy
and the water rates will remain the same.
The only difference voting this improvement will make, will
be a slight reduction in the SPEED of the water debt retire
ment. Thanks to the favorable financial condition of the munici
pal water department, this can be done, without serious incon
venience of any SORT, to ANYONE,
Medford has a fine water system and during the winter a
considerable surplus, but if all the water available were turned
into Bear creek, sanitary engineers agree, it would not be suf
ficient to properly dilute the sewage of the city. Moreover to
construct a line for such diversion would cost the city 20 or "30
thousand dollars. During the summer, when there is no water
surplus, such a make-shift would be completely useless, and at
the very time when contamination and danger of an epidemic is
grestest. Such a procedure would be nothing short of criminal
folly.
AS before stated this sewage disposal plant is sorely needed
to protect the health of the city, improve the sanitary con
dition not only of Bear creek but Rogue river; improve fishing
and thus stimulate tourist travel, and in many ways make Med
ford a better place in which to live. .It will supply a needed
payroll during the winter, and distribute from $22,000 to $26,000
in cash, in this community as an outright gift, when it will be
greatly needed.
There is EVERYTHING to be said in favor of the proposal
and NOTHING against. Don't be deluded by the political pro
paganda against the measure. Look up the facts, Mr. and Mrs.
Voter, for YOURSELF. Go into the matter thoroughly from
all angles.
For if you know the true situation, you will vote for the
bonds in your own self interest, and for the betterment of your
city and its people.

A Fine Idea, but-
A. C. BOTCH makes an interesting suggestion in another
column of today's paper. He favors a United States of
the world, to include a union of the British empire and the
United States, with a common capital at "Washington, D. C., or
Toronto.
In his title, we fear, Mr. Burch takes in too much territory.
A union of the English speaking peoples could hardly be termed
a United States of the WORLD. Nor do we believe such a
union would be practical, or at this stage of the game, even
possible.
So we would drop the "world' idea and also drop the idea
of merging these two great nations into one.
a
OUT as the world is rushing toward an abyss of war and socisl
confusion, we would, AND DO, strongly favor an adoption
of the central idea, which would be the STRONGEST POS
SIBLE ALLIANCE between Great Britain and the United
States, for the essential purpose of promoting world peace and
preventing war.
a
FUNDAMENTALLY the two countries have identical pur-
poses and ideals. They talk the same language both liter
ally and figuratively. They are not looking for mnre lands to
conquer, they are devoted to liberty and to peace.
If such an alliance were to be affected, no one nation or com
bination of nations, could successfully oppose it. These two
countries would have a combined army and navy, that would
render its international authority supreme. When it gave orders
to any other country those orders would be obeyed.
At the present moment with such a combination realized
Japan would at once abandon all idea of competing on the sea.
Any nation threatening war in Europe could be brought to time,
by an Anglo-American ultimatum, of not more than 100 words.
In fact nothing would do more for world salvation, the estab
lishment of world security and peace, than such an alliance.
But while to us the wisdom of such action is perfectly plain,
with HUMAN NATURE WHAT IT IS-AND SUPER
NATIONALISM ALSO i appears to us ALMOST an impos
sible task to bring it about;
germs In milk, Is bringing the milk to
a boll for one minute only, then cool

min O than la parboiling (pasteuris

boll the milk for one minute If she
wishes to make sure It will be safe
no matter what the source of the
milk.
Some vendors attempt to make the
Ignorant customer believe pasteuriz
ing somehow Improves the quality or
value of milk. On the contrary, It
lowers both. But pasteurization Is
Indispensable to make low grade milk

warn readers to beware of doctors or
