If tDo senate should cite Hopson
ho would be eubject to Instant ar

the United States, and to ft possible

Committee members said they had
an air-tight caae of contempt against
Hopson except for one possible point
that the courts might hold he

one congressional committee, while
already under the Jurisdiction ol
another.
After the committee's report was
read to the senate, It was tempo
rarily laid aside, but Black refused
to let It be postponed until tomor

Democratic leader, conferred In a
cloakroom as the senate proceeded
with the tax debate.

Saw House in Two
So Loan Firm May
Take Possession
OKLAHOMA CITY, Aug. 14,
( AP) Carpenters today sawed a
house In two so a loan firm might
take possession of half of It under
i mortgage foreclosure that entail
ed complications.
The house was built on parts of
two adjoining lots, one of which
was mortgaged.
When the loan company tried to
foreclose, Mrs. Fern Chadwlck, the
owner, moved her posacsBlons Into
the purt of the house built on the
other lot.
nlshed SO men. The Douglas county
men are transported from Roseburg
to Mcdford by officials of the Ump
qua National Forst and are sent
from Medford by trucks, furnished
by the blister rust control, to camps
located In Douglas county In the
vicinity of Diamond lake. The entire
quota of men has not been sent to
date due to the fact that full camp
facilities are not yet available. The
quota will be filled aa rapidly
the camps can accommodate the
men.
Today's figures show the quota to
be short from 70 to 100 men and
It la believed this number can be
furnished. The original order from
the forest service was for 20 men
and this order has been filled. All of
the new work Is under the new
WPA relief set-up and all men must
be from relief rolls. Wages are from
93ft to $50 and meals. Fruit picking
will start nct week and no short
age of workers Is expected.
These figures are released from
the national re-employment service,
a branch of the United States de
partment of labor. Lewis Ulrlch Is
manager, with offices In the city
hall at Medford.

At the regular weekly meeting of
the Active club at Hotel Medford last
night, Actlvlnns Glen Fabrlck and
Bill McAllister reported on a trip
recently taken to Klamath Falls In
the Interests of establishing an Act
ive branch In that city. They stated
that the young men of that city wero
receptive to the plan.
Since a new custom has been In
itiated by the Active club of dis
pensing with All business matters at
one meeting each month, last night's
meeting was purely an entertaining
one, with the feature amusement be
ing a halfnour of music furnished
by the Pino Cone orchestra, a novelty
well received by the members.
Charles Clay, an employe of the
Timber Products company, and Ken
MHUtien, formerly a member of the
Anhland Active club, now living In
Medtord, wore guests.

ture not found In any other pear.
This tho can tiers realize," he stated,
"but they also realize that by with
holding offers until It Is too late lor
the fast ripening fruit to be packed
for the fresh fruit market, they can
force the grower Into a disastrously
low price bracket."
One of tho men at the meeting
today, familiar with the federal loan
situation, stated on his personal guar
antee that the government would be
willing to subscribe from 75 to 80
per cent of the total money required.
The Jackson County Chamber of
Commerce has extended an offer of
100 per cent cooperation In the
matter, as have all of the otlirr
growers contacted, who were not at
the meeting. A local banker Is act
ing In an advisory capacity.
The cannery would be mutually
owned by the growers themselves,
placing them In so advantageous a
position that they would never again
be forced to meet the canners prices,
Loveretto pointed out. The canned
pears could be held for the best mar
kets, and could be picked at the best
time of year.
Have Thousands
There were 14,500 tons of Bart
letts harvested in the valley last
year, and the estimate for the prcs'
cut seaKon will exceed that by 600
tons. This would net the growers In
this vicinity a saving of thousands
of dollars, and bring to Medford
new Industry which would take its
place as one of the most profitable
In bo u thorn Oregon.
The cannery would b built pri
marily for the pear canning.' Lever
otto stated, but a system would prob
ably be worked out whereby other
produce could bo put up.
The man to Investigate the Port
land canning situation will be sel
ected and sent north sometime next
week. It was learned.
