MEDFORD MATT; TRIBUNE. fEDFORD, OREGON, FRIDAY, MAY 10. 1935. PAGE OXE MOSCOW (UP) Faced by an acute shortage of doctors to carry out Its public health program, the Soviet government has decided to pay the physicians higher salaries and to make the medical field more attrac tive. By a decree of the Council of Peo ple's Commissars and the Central Committee of the Communist Party, the average monthly Income of doc tors has been raised from about 350 to 450 roubles. This places them on the same financial plane with engl j neera and other professional men. ! Under the new decree doctors' sal-' aries also will vary with their experi ence. In the past physicians in the various categories of medicine re ceived the same salary regardless of age and length of service In the pro fession. Naturally this led to dissat isfaction among the older doctors who felt It unfair that a youthful graduate of a medical school should be paid as much as a mature physi cian of many years experience. Doctors employed In the extreme north or In other regions, where liv ing Is uncomfortable, or hazardous, will receive especially high salaries from the government. The Income that doctors receive from the government may be supple mented somewhat by fees received In private practice. However, the work, required from medical men by gov ernment hospitals and Institutions leaves them little time to treat those wealthier patients able to pay for personal visits. At this time there are In Russia proper some 44.000 physicians as com pared with 13.000 In 1913, the year before the World War. Some 70.000 students are now enrolled In medical universities. Despite the growth of the profession, however, there Is still an acute shortage of physicians far less than the Soviet government needs to carry out Its public health program which Is bringing medical aid to remote communities which In past years had few If any doctors and hospitals. 4 and strawberry crops having ban J harvested, Mils section la preparing now to harvest another crop of frogs. This town Is the county seat of of the wild frog industry. As many as 40 barrels of froglegs have been shipped from here In a single week. The best output for a month was 103 barrels. Reports Indicate that an unusually dry season has cut down on the sup ply of "hoppers." but there will be plenty to attract the hunters and make It worth their while at a time when they are not otherwise engaged. Hunters are paid cash for the frogs and prfces usually range from 10 to 15 cents a pound, gross. OF TO WAUCHTJLA. Pla.

He was unable to adjust the instrument when he reached the hospital. The Indicator spun craiily. Omberg had stopped near some ashcans. He' sifted the ashes and found the radium. 1 0-YEAR TRIAL PROVES FRIENDS WERE WRONG BELMONT, Mass. (UP) Friends told John C. Fohn, Boston manufac turer, that flowers wouldn't grow if he built his conservatory on the north side of his home here. That was 10 years ago. Today everything from lemon trees to cactus plants thrive In his "north side" conservatory, and he la famed in this section -as a grower of fine flowers. Though his goli score Is ususlly In the lower 80s, hq doesn't play much nowadays, preferring to devote his time to his other hobby. t Bowy Is Cross-Eyed DAVIS, Cal. (UP) Visitors to the University of California experimental dairy at the College of Agriculture here rub their eyes when they see one placid bossy. She Is perfectly cross-eyed. Those who watch her for a few minutes as she chews her cud take a quick run for a mirror to see if they are cross-eyed, too. IS FOR SOIL BLOWING NORMAW, Okta. (UP) Dust storms which cover the mid western states are caused by improper use of land, according to Dr. Paul B. Sears, professor of botany at the University of Oklahoma. "The situation frankly Is a cause for alarm. Farmers In this area must take their choice of starvation, or proper utilization of land," Dr. Sears s&ld. . j Stripping the uplands of vegetation by plowing and by excessive grazing during the last decade has made the dust storms almost Inevitable, Dr. Sears said. "The pressing need at present ts to keep the upland country covered at all times with some kind of vegeta tion, and drop this dream of cultiva tion of row crops everywhere." Nature's process of forming a spon gy, water-holding top . soil required centuries and In many regions this top soil has been almost entirely de stroyed by wind and rain aggravated by plowing and overloading the graz ing lands. Dr. Sears explained. "In Caddo County, in western Ok lahoma, as much soli has been re moved by the combined action of wind and water In the past 40 years aa In the 1.000 years preceding yie settlement of the country. This sit uation Is duplicated elsewhere." Dr. Sears explained that the top soli, which varies from two to four feet in depth, Is easily removed after the land has been plowed or after the grass has been cut short by graz ing. Underneath, he added, is the hard sub soil which will absorb very little rain. These dust storms are especially violent In the spring because the land has then been cleared of vege tation in preparation for planting. Much of the dust which occasion ally blankets Oklahoma and other states Is from the lava deposits In Wyoming, Dr. Sears said. One crater near Laramie, Wyo.. Is 10 miles long, one and one-half miles wide, and ap proximately 150 feet deep. There are several ranches In the bottom. Dr. Sears cited this as an extreme case of the power of the wind to remove the soil. 180 In Air, Fined for .V CLEVELAND (UP) Wharton Larned, who, as a commercial airline passenger pilot, drives planes 180 miles an hour and faster, was fined $10 and costs In police court here for driving his automobile 50 miles per hour.
