BERKELEY SEWER
PROJECT ORDERED
BY CITY COUNCIL
Construction of a sewer on Berke
ley Way was approved by the Medford
council at a meeting In city hall last
night. City Attorney Prank P. Parrell
was Instructed to prepare the papers
necessary to proceed with the project.
Several property owners objected to
construction of the sewer unless as
sessments would be made under the i
Bancroft plan whereby payments !
could be spread over a period of ten 1
years. If the project cannot be ac
complished under the Bancroft plan,
assessments would have to be paid
Immediately In a lump sum. It was
explained. In view of the objections
the council voted to construct the
sewer under the Bancroft act If pos
sible. The cost was estimated at 12.
750. The council voted to withhold fore
closure proceedings on Court street
lots owned by H. O. Wortman and B.
E. Gore pending an inquiry by the
finance and streets and roads com
mittees. It was contended that there
had been an understanding not to
assess the property for a water main.
Sale of a lot of 50 by 130 feet on
East Main street near Academy place
to W. M. Hammett for 8450 waa ap
proved by the council.
The council voted to accept (122.91
In full settlement of an assessment
against property owned at King and
10th streets by the Gold Ray Invest
ment company in order to terminate
a dispute between the city and the
company.
Work on the sewage disposal plant

the council was informed.
AT PUBLIC MEET

and the emergency fund should he
reduced.
Mr. Iverson's protest cited the ris
ing taxes on homes owned by hlm
elf. County Judge Earl B. - Day ex
plained that "the budget committee
' had done its very best to cut every
thing to the bone," and that they
wete handicapped in previous years
by the 80,000 trial expense Imposed
as a result of the Banks-Pehl tur
moil. Fehl Action Cited.
"Mr. Fehl claimed he cut the
county expenses, and out of defer
ence to him the budget committee
reduced appropriations heavily at
his suggestion." said Judge Day.
"The result waa a terrific mlx-up,
with deficits showing In many county
offices. The last two budget com
mittees have materially cleared this
up."
The appropriation of the county
health fund was also criticized. C.
B. Gates, Jn deiense of the fund,
said:
"I am as heavy a tax payer as
there is in this room, but I don't
want a cent cut that will hinder
help to those In need of health
care."
Gates also said thej; "these are
strenuous times for all of us. but
times are getting better and will
work out of It. We are headed that
way now."
Henry End era, Jr., of Ashland,
made a motion at the conclusion
of the hearing that the budget com
mittee be extended a vote of thanks
for their efforts. Enders said he had
served on a budget committee re
cently and realized the amount of
time and thought expended.
Approval Aked.
W. H. McNatr of Ashland made
a motion that the budget be ap
proved, and that the budget com'
mittee be thanked for the work.
Upon certification of the budget
it win be turned over to the assessor
for fixing of the tax levy.
J. R. McCoy of Ashland, at the
start of the hearing, stated that the
budget committee had earnestly
striven to make a budget that was
fair and conservative and compre-
henalve. He stated there waa no Item
that had not been deeply considered
and was not absolutely necessary.
Besides McCoy, the appointive
members of the budget committee
were Merrill B. Chase. Table Rock,
orchardist, and H. A. Thlerolf, Med
ford, lumberman, who acted with
the county court as the budget
committee.

Famous Comedian Thought
Act Was Poor Until He
Was Told by Trouper
Gave Charity Big Sum
Will Rogers was unused to the ways
of show business when he first ap
peared in New York with his act.
Bob Albright, vaudeville singer and
native Oklahoma, told a story of
Rogers effort to get a raise from
Arthur Hammerstetn. for whom he
was appearing.
Rogers had been held over for three
successive weeks. His act was going
over big. But Will was disappointed
each week as he watched the remain
der of the ahow move on to another
theater.
"What's the matter with my act?"
he queried. "Don't they think I'm
good enough to go with the rest of
the show?"
Wants $10 More.
Albright, sn old trouper, instantly
saw that his fellow statesman was
new In the show business.
"How long you been here?" he
asked.
"Four weeks." said Rogers unhap
pily. "If they held me over for only one
week, they'd have to give me a raise,"
Albright advised.
That encouraged Rogers. He ap
proached Hammersteln. "The people
seem to like my little act." he told
the impressarlo. "Don't you reckon
you could pay me a little more mon
ey?" "That's what every actor thinks,"
Hammersteln told him, "but how
much do you think you ought to
have?"
"Would $10 a week be too much?"
Rogers replied.
"The story Is true," Rogers said In
ster years, "but I've learned better
since."
Don tit ps ST.0,000.
Not so very long ago Rogers re
ceived 50.000 for the first seven
broadcasts for a nationally advertised
product over a nation-wide network.
Notwithstanding the fact that at
the same time he borrowed UOO.dOO
from a bank in Los Angeles to make
a last payment on his ranch, he gave
the $50,000 to charity ha?f to the

expressed fear the grain would be
