REFLECTS RETURN
OF BETTER TIES
Hot every city on ths coast can
boast the excellent laundry service
to be had in Med ford. Among lead
ers In this field la the Mcdford Do
mestic Laundry, which has just com
pleted its year-end survey of busi
ness done during 1034.
The report Is encouraging, both to
the company, and to the many peo
ple affected, tn that It indicates a
trend upward In general business
conditions.
The company, which employes 23
people In the service department
alone, shows a 1934 pay-roll of $16,
000, over $300 per week. This is a
twelve and a half per cent Increase
over the year before.
The laundry was founded In 1907.
and was taken over in 1918 by the
late Glen R. Fa brick. Upon the death
of his father. Glen L. Fabrlck took
lip the position of president, the ca
pacity in which he now serves.
All the steam for the plant is gen
erated in the company's own boiler,

trifugal force, and from there It goes
directly to the lroners.
Such pieces as shirts and dresses
are ironed on special machines, there
being a different machine for each
process. The finer parts are finished
by hand. As a special accommoda
tion, the entire work will be done by
hand upon request.
One machine, which $10,000 has a
eapactty of seven sheets a minute.
This machine also does other flat
work. Another machine, the only one
of Its kind In southern Oregon,
brushes the nap of wool blankets
back to Its best condition, making
the blankets look like new.
. The laundry, according to Fab
rick, "has no special machine to tear
buttons off, or rip collars." In fact,
he said, they have remarkably few ac
cidents, considering the tremendous
volume of the plant.
Of the many people employed, sev
eral have been with the company for
longer than 10 years, all of the ma
chine operators being experts in their
line.
Out-ranking all others in point of
service, however, is Lester Warden,
the washerman, who has been with
the company since 1911, continuous
ly except for two and a half years
when he saw service in Frnnce dur
ing the World war.
An interesting feature is the fact
that the laundry used to receive over
two barrels of men's detachable col
lars to clean and starch a day, and
now that number has fallen off so
rapidly that today they receive less
than thirty.
In order to assure each person that
lie will receive the correct pieces
when his order Is returned, an In
tricate system is employed, making
use of numbered pins, nets, and
Identification numbers. Very few
pieces have ever been lost, Fabrlck
said.
The laundry is one of Medford's
largest tax-payers, the machinery
alone being valued at between $50,
000 and $60,000.

IS GREAT SUCCESS
The Veterans of Foreign Wars Gold
Chevron ball New Year's eve in the
two halls of the Oriental Gardens,
was both a social antf financial suc
cess. Tickets were sold to six hun
dred couples. The veterans expressed
thanks to the people of Jackson
county for the!;- iioUu-.se. Both
halls were flllert to capacity.
The financial success of the dance
makes it pOMible for the Veterans"
of Foreign Wars to give their annual
Christmas tree again next year, with
out calling on the merchants foe aid,
and also will assist in their veterans
relief program, for this coming year.
on Monday, each party called organ
lzatlon meetings for today.
The work of organizing was not
without its potential fireworks. The !
323 house" Democrats had to choose
a floor leader from among eight can
didates, all promising to stay In the
fight till the end.
The speakership, howevcr. was a
foregone conclusion, with Representa
tive John W. Byrns of Tennessee
slated to be nominated today and
elected tomorrow.
Other meetings today were mostly
formalities. Senate Democrats agreed
to rename Senator Robinson of Ar
kansas as their leader: senate Re
publicans were behind Senator Mc
Nary of Oregon for that Job In their
purty. The 102 house Republicans
were expected to renominate Repre-
sentaitve Bertrand H. Snell of Ne
York as their floor leader.
Would Change Utiles
After how Democrats chose their
leader, another contested issue was
in atore. Democratic leaders, seeking
to protect the administration pro
gram from any revolt, put on a broad
campaign for a change in rules so
that 218 members instead of 145
would have to sign a petition to
force a vote on a bill which lacked
administration approval.
There was opposition, especially
among some middle and far western-
j crs who in the past have hit at what
they termed attempts at "gag rule."
Supporters of the 218 rule, who
said It would pass, declared It was
not directed at the bonus. Repre
sentative Byrns and other chiefs, con
ceding the bonus will pans the house
the first time. Intend to bring it up
as promptly as possible so that no
charge of delay can be made.
me 21B rule, it was indicated, was
aimed primarily at- inflationary moves
lacking adminlttratlon approval. Dem
ocratlc leaders hoped the caucus
would approve the change so It could
be put thro jjh th?" house tomorrow.
or Friday. They also intended to re
dure Republican membership on cer
tain important committees.

FLEMINGTON. N. J., Jan. 3. ( AP)
Sitting a few feet from the father!
of the baby he Is accused of murder
ing, Bruno Richard Hauptmann, stol
id, morose carpenter, began tiie or-1
deal of trial for his life today, and !
heard accepted Jurors say they had
no prejudice against capital punish
ment. He stared straight ahead through
the questioning of veniremen, paying
little heed to Col. Sharles A. Und
berg seated nearby at the prosecution
table. Mrs. Lindbergh, the bereaved
mother was not present.
Wife In Court
Another woman, almost lost In the
back of the room among a Jamming
crowd, listened with intense interest.
She was Mrs. Anna Hauptmann. wire
of the Bronx carpenter and mother
of his own Infant son, Mannfrled.
At the noon recess 22 veniremen
had been questioned, four accepted
and sworn.
The questioning and selecting went
forward with unexpected speed. It
began almost immediately after Jus
tice Thomas W. Trenchard
opened his court at iu:09 a, m. in
the most Important and dramatic
trial of recent years.
A machinist will be foreman of the
Jury. He is Charles Walton, Sr.
Pamphlet .Moot Point
"Criminal File No. 23 10" was a
moot point in the questioning of pros
pective Jurors. This pamphlet, satir
izing the Lindbergh case and thinly
veiling the names and circumstances.
was widely distributed in Hunterdon
county. Most of the veniremen ac
knowledged they had read the piece,
but none would say that it had any
thing to da with the forming of an
opinion, If he had formed one.
The selected Jurors were forbidden
to talk to anyone. To their guards
Justice Trenchard said:
'Se that they read nothing the
case and hear no rualo biouUcats.
The opening of the far-noted trial
today presented boom-town scenes as
700 reporters, wire men and others
descended upon the busily engaged
but calm, 2700 Inhabitants of the
village.
Many IHsnppnlntrd
Seventy of the townfolk were tn a
line whose head pressed against the
court house door before the opening.
Many of them were disappointed, for
they could not be Jammed into the
tiny space allotted for the trial. Some
said: "We won't pay our taxes."
At eaBt one girl o'rered to pay
, the sheriff mone for standing room.
An a;ed man. though he waited In
line, refused to admit any interest!
in the trial.
"It makes me no money," he aver
red. Another said he only erne (from
40 miles away) to "look k. the pub
lic." Colonel Lindbergh watched the
prospective Jurors with deep interest,
noted each of them as they reacted
to state of defense questions. At all
times his fat urea were calm. Now
and again he cupped nla chin in his
hands. He was not observed In any
studied glnnces toward Hauptmann,
whose chair vus less than four yani
away and against the same courtroom
rail.
Defense Accused
At one point in the morning's pro
ceedings the defense was accused of
trylyg to attract "unwarranted sym
pathy." This was when C. Llovd
Fisher of the defense staff aked
prospective Jurtn if the presence of
so many troopers in uniform would
influence him. Justice Trenchard
also thought the question "unjusti-l
fled."
Hauptmann was heavily guarded
when he was brought Into the court
room, but no manacles bound his
hands. He was dre.Pd in a neat gray
suit. So was Colonel Lindbergh, who
strode In a few minutes later and
pasod directly in front of the pris
oner. J v st ice Trenchard. gTey-halred and

unhesltant rulings. He quickly put
down any Inclination on the part or
the crowd to laugh or audibly demonstrate.
