WASHINGTON, July 1. If there
weren't any Hyde Park, the president
would probably have Invented one
this week-end. He was Just about
Boy-Scouted out of town.
With some 30.000 youngsters In
.aborts encamped by the pellucid Po
tomac, about every county In the
country has been heard from up at
1600 Pennsylvania avenue. If the
president had had 25 hours a day,
ha probably could have used them
all Inspecting this or that or taking
part in something or other at the
huge tent city or along the line of
march.
He had to get In line or get out.
"I Just bad a very nice talk with
the president," satd the senator, "and
he assured me they were going to
take care of that reclamation propo
altlon."
The cynic snickered. "Chalk up
another vote for the court bill, boys,"
he shouted and retired behind a sprig
of mint.
"Well." said the senator, "noth
ing was said about the court, but,
you know, I'd sort of like to keep
my Job here In Washington. So 1
decided to let the other boys be the
statesmen. I'm Just going to look
after the folks back home the beat
I can."
Speaking of Boy Scouts and speak

one of the Inconsistencies that
arises to meet tha eye Is the fact
their big party la called a Jamboree
which Webster indelicately defines

The growing ahape fo labor casts
a new shadow over government. Gov

treasury are continually being raided

Now that the demand for labor
specialists has been greatly Increased,
thanks to tha national labor rela

be the next to suffer.

TOKYO. July 1. (AP) Japanese
reports said tonight that five more
soviet gunboats had appeared today
at Sennufu Island In the Amur river,
where an alleged soviet "invasion"
has led to an armed clash between
the Russian river craft and Japanese
Manchoukuoan border artillery.
These advices, together with con
tinued soviet occupation of the
Island and what Japanese sources
said was Moscow's failure to reply
to Tokvo's protests on the "Inva

The cabinet has declared that only
the evacuation of Sennufu Island
and other disputed border territory
by soviet armed forces can bring a
peaceful solution to the crisis.
As It stands now. both Russia and
JSan consider the other aggressor.
Dispatches from Moscow to the
newspaper Asaht, meanwhile, said
the Japanese ambaassdor there made
a passionate plea for peace to soviet
officials, regardless of the technical
question of ownership of the Amur
islands.

LEAD HALF YEAR
Indications that Medford was well
on the way to enjoying Ha huskiest
building boom In yeara were revealed
today by City Building Inspector
Prank Rogers when he released con
struction cost figures for the flrat six
month period of 1937.
Total stated cost of permits Issued
for tho construction of residences,
business buildings and other projects
amounted to $174,359 during the i
first half of thla year, a gain of ap
proximately 73 per cent over the
same period In 1036 when permits
having a stated cost of a 10 1.533 were
Issued.
Of that total, 101.600 was for the
construction of now residences, 30.
700 for the construction of business
buildings, (33,904 for re purs and al
terations on business buildings, and
$0,115 for repairs and alterations on
residences. Mr. Rogers pointed out
that the coft of the 37 new residences
for the first six months of this year
was almost as much as the entire
coat of all construction over the
same six months laat year.
Juno of thla year ahowed a value
of $34,704 In permits as compared
with $21,005 In June, 1930. May of
this year has bo far proved the best
month, with permit issued having a
stated construction cost of 141.030.
Commenting on the tremendous in
crease in construction of new resi
dences, Mr. Rogers said that it proved
people were getting ck to "home
building," which has been slight for
many years.
"They are building new homes In
stead of repairing and remodeling old
ones,' he said. Cost of new home
construction waa about 1100 per cent
greater than money expended for re-
moledlng and repairing during the
six-month period.
Another Indication of the excellent
condition of bulsness In Medford at
present was revealed when the build
ing superintendent, quoting from
government reports, stated that
building In general over the United
Statea waa up 30 per cent over laat
year, as compared to this city's In
crease of 73 per cent, more than twice
the national gain. Building In the
Pacific northwest was up 33 per cent,
he quoted, making Med ford 'a figure
look all tne more encouraging.
Mr. Rogers explained tho fact that
remodeling and repairing of bualneaa
buildings waa 11 per cent greater than
construction cost of new buildings
by saying that the business district
and firms were definitely established.
and the trend was toward modern
Irtng and keeping up to date Instead
of erecting new buildings. .
