MEDFOUD MAIL TRIBUNE. MEDFOliD, OREGON, FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 29, 1933. PAGE ELEVhIN T I AIKIY PHILIPPINE ISLES ( Contlnuea From Page One.) The thrilled onlcoKcra of many rao8, cheered when the Philippine constabulary band struck up vhe na tive and United States national an thems. Total flying time for the trip was 60 houra, 4 minute, or four minutes over the time specified in the Pan American Airways airmail charter. Captain Mustek had the Clipper over Manila in plenty of time to put her down within the scheduled period he had planned to land exactly on the minute but the sudd?n appear ance of numerous small rift on the bey cavwed him to a-ct cautiously. Eleven-Hour Flight. Eleven hours. 25 minutes befon the arrival, the Clipper skimmed off Apra harbor, Guam Island. 1700 miles east of here. It was the atin of the only leg of the Callfornii-to-the-Philippines trip that was uncharted. The flight was apparently as easy as the earlier stages of the crossing. Last Friday afternoon, the four- motored craft soared away from Its western base at Alameda, in S.in Fran rsen bav. for Honolulu Following schedules with precision, she dropped In on Honolulu. 2408 miles away, then hopped 1323 miles to Midway Island 1191 miles to woke island, 1536 milea to Guam and the last 1700 miles here.

Where once the Interlude between late September and the middle of February was almost denuded of nde. quate grazing and even simple re wird. the sponsors of the Florida win ter circuit now plan an Intensive De cember series of four clo.wly locked tournaments with aggregate prize money of $19,000. Moreover, for those who have been seized with malignant financial arth ritis at the prospective outlay for transportation prevailing In the past, r.ew arrangement have been made for special golfers' trains at substen. tlally reduced fares.

" -. c....,o.....w t .... . , -1 I, , ; By PAUL GALLON. (Copyright, 1935, by Paul Ma lion) WASHINGTON. Nov. 39. What Is going on behind the red draperies of the new supreme .court bench these days Is a matter of con siderable a o 1 1 o voce concern to all who are close to the third branch of the government. This branch operates neces sarily In private. Its delayed tech nical Judgments are the only solid clues to Its activity. Thus far U L MALI.ON this session, the cues point clearly to an unusual clash of opinions among the men who are sitting In Judgment on the biggest part of the new deal. A check of the first seventeen de cisions made this session shows dis agreement among the Jurists In ten. This Is a sharply unusual percent age. In any ordinary run of seven teen decisions, no more than three or four dissents will generally be found. When the technical order was is sued the other day In the AAA rice tax case, three Justices, classed as liberals, registered dissent. This dis sension was amazing to the Inside legal crowd. Court orders are gen erally Issued as a matter of tech nical routine. Only rarely is there open discord. If the Justices cannot agree about a court order, some safety measures may be In order for the coming de cisions on the new deal. Fancy Interpreters are Jumping to the conclusion that the six-to-threc rice order hints at a new division Inside the court. The line-up dis closed Chief Justine Hughes and Justice Roberts In the company of the four so-called conservative jus tices, leaving the three so-called lib erals on the short end of the bench. It Is probably a air but haphar ard guesa to phopecy a six-to-three decision agaJnst much pending new deal legislation, but not because of the rice decision. The split tn the court there was not on the consti tution but on the technical ques tion of whether the rice millers should pay their tax to the govern ment before the courts decide their BUits. All the lower courts have im pounded processing taxes. The lower court In the rice case refused to. The supreme court merely applied the general rule to the rice growers. But In doing It, the court ignored a provision of the AAA act requir ing processing tax payers to pay first and aue later for recovery. To that has been a leader. It has The Beer extent, the court held a provision of the AAA act temporarily invalid until It could reach a final decision. More than a suspicion exists that the new deal lawyers are doing little to hasten decisions by the supreme court In pending cases. In fact, there seems to be a studied tendency among them to move deliberately un til congress reconvenes. Whether delay ts their purpose. It Is. at least, the result of their ac tions. No decisions will be ready in any important new deal case until after congress assembles in January. The idea apparently Is that, with congress' at hand, substitute legis lation can be pushed through In a hurry to meet court rulings. A liberal newsman noticed Justice McReynolda lunching at a nearby table In the new supreme court caf eteria the other day. The liberal be gan talking in a loud voice about what he thought the court should do. Thj Justice could have heard the subtle heckling If he had been a block farther away, but he gave no sign of notice. The liberal was un doubtedly wasting his breath. Certain new deal atiuineys nave been disappointed to note how hale and hearty comparatively nil the Jus tices are now. as winter approached tn yenra past, one or two Jurists us ually have fallen ill. (The average age Is 70). So far this year, only one rumor of illness has been heard. When court attaches checked It up a few days ago. they found that the Jurist In point was that moment out on a golf course. The only practical effect of the rice order is that no one will now pay processing taxes. At least no one will whose tax amounts to more than the fee required to hire a law yer to file suit. That will not make much Immed iate difference. Few were paying any way. Up to last Tuesday, the treas ury had collected only $9,000,000 In processing taxes this month, com pared with $58,000,000 In the same period last November. So far this year, it has collected only 1 8 per cent of what it collected last year. This may be the most important angle of the pending AAA case. The treasury will be In a hole financially tf the supreme court refunds all the Impounded taxes, which new amount to at least $175,000,000. The movie critic of a national monthly magazine was employed by Dr. Tugwell's rural resettlement ad ministration some weeks ago. He was to write a movie of resettlement work. An office was provided for him here. Until lately, the doorman had seen the critic only once. He came In. looked his office over, took the next train back for New York.

A survey showed that 18 percent trucks and 20 percent passenger cars pass stop signs at speeds between 3 and 15 miles per hour, only 4 5 per cent went faster than 15 while nearly 7 percent of the passenger cars did A distinct ratio was found between cars exercised at stop crossings and the destiny of trafiic and visibility. ROGUE VALLEY PEARS ARE WELL RECEIVED IN THE CANAL ZONE Medford Cornice pears have found favor with officials of the Panama Canal Zone and Indications are that a new market for the fruit has been found. A short time ago American Fruit Growers, Inc., sent sample boxes of the pears to A. W. Goulet, general manager of the commissary division of the Panama Rnilroad. United States government company which operates large general stores in the Canal Zone, and to J. H. K. Humphrey, aslstant quartermaster. Today Gordon R. Green, manager of American Fruit Growers, received letters from the two officials saying they and their associates had sampled the Blue Gqpso pears and found them surprisingly delicious and succulent. Both wrote highly of the quality of the fruit. "I feel certain that If our trade could get to know the fine qualities of this fruit, there would be demand for It in the Canal Zone, Mr. Goulet wrote. "They were without doubt the most luscious pears I have over tast ed." With this auspicious start, efforts will be made to establish the Canal Zone as a large market for tiic valley fruit.
