PXGE EIGHT MEDFORD MAIL TRIBUXE, MEDFORD. OREGON, SUNDAY, NOVEMBER 17, 1933. F BY 28 F CRATER LK. AREA CRATER LAKE NATIONAL PARK, Nov. 16. (Spl.) A review of the 1936 forent fire season In Crater Lake national park reveals a marked effi ciency In present-day flge-flghtlng methods. Although 28 fires occurred In the Crn tor Lake area, only four acres were burned. Including a mini mum amount of timber. Records, compiled by Chief Ranger J, Carlisle Croch, show that 26 of the 36 blazes were caused by lightning, two by debris burning and one by a smoker. Indicating that Nature In her electrical moods was the main enemy of the forest lands. The fires were widely distributed over the 350 square miles of the park and empha sised the importance of the motor way or fire-road system threading the area providing accessibility to all parts of the park by motor, which otherwise could have been reached only by foot. The chief ranger's figures reveal that 307 miles of motorways and trails were traveled to reach the dlf? ferent fires. Of this total IBS miles were over motorways ut an average speed of 20 miles per hour and 22 miles by foot at an average of slightly over one mile per hour. Thus fire fighters were enabled to reach the scenes of the different blazes In the shortest time possible and to extin guish the flames while they were still In Incipient stages. A few years ago before the construction of the motor ways, the story would have been far different fires would have covered acres before they could have been reached, park officials pointed out. ' The Crater Lake national park ran ger staff has been especially trained n fire fighting as a protective meas ure for the many thousands of acres of virgin timber In the park. The efficiency of the rangers Is reflected In the results of last summer, offi cials emphasized. . t BROWN HELD FOR Bert Brown, 04, woodcutter on the Weybrlght ranch In Jas-kson ville, was bound over to the grand Jury by Justice of the Peace W.

This Is the view of Representative Olenn O. Taylor who was back at his deputy United States marshal's office in federal building here yes terday after attending the special session of the legislature that ap proved a compromise measure for the erection of the new capltol on the old site. "Personally, I should have Hkeo additional ground," Mr. Taylor said, "but It Is generally overlooked that the measure provides for trhe old site plus any gifts of land that might be made. "Wilson park, which la owned by the city of Salem, Is Immediately to the vest of the capltol site and It la possible that this land, com prising about six acres, may be given to the state by the city. The capltol site would then have about 13 acres." The house, Mr. Taylor said, nan to choose between the old site and Candalarla heights, no other choice being presented to it. The house, he stated, was opposed to the heights location because of its re moteness and the cost of improving and modernizing It. Obituary Mrs. EUii C. Brown. Mrs. Ella C.

"The provision of the conatl tutlon requiring that expenditures should be only in accordance with appropriations actually made by law should .be obeyed. And they should be made for specific purposes." 6. "The budget should be bal anced, not by taxes, but by reduc tion of follies." 7. "The futile purchase of for eign silver should be stopped." 8.

"The administration should give and keep a, pledge to the country that there will be no furth er Juggling of the currency and no further experiments with credit Inflation." 11. "Confidence In the validity or promises of the government should be restored." "Economic security, social secur ity, or any other security cannot be found without first restoring these primary policies of govern ment." Hoover asserted. Turning to the course of mone tary affairs under the Roosevelt administration, the former president said : "The dose of lnflatli now In jected Into our- national blood stream by the new deal Is already three or four times as great as that of 1927.

"Should these controls fall, this democracy will not survive the shock." , Bare The Good Mr. Hoover titled his address "The expenditures Imposed upon the peo ple by the new economic planning. Its consequences, and some remedies It requires." He said at the outset that he was not criticizing all that has been done In Washington and that "whatever Is good should be continued." He noted that opponents of the economic planning were divided Into two groups. One. he said, feels that such a catch-word cloaks "that Incarnate passion for power, the Insidious end of which Is the de struction of liberty and the rise of the regimented state.
