explaining that a group of
18 had met to consider the present
Southern Oregon Civic Music asso

It was a live organization nnd then
waa dormant for four years. The
great interest being shown recently
haa resulted in the present organi

Civic Music association started from
an ideal of a Chicago woman 17
years ago and of It wide spread
until today more than 200 cities of
the United States secure their art
ists under this plan. St. Paul, Dallas,
Tex., Palm Beach, Winston, S. C,
Tacoma and Spokane are a few cities
he mentioned who operate under the
clvto music association program.

tickets will be sold after that time
and none will be available at the
bo office for Individual perform
ances. Adult membership Is $A and

title the holder to at leaat three
performance of famous artists and
perhaps more, depending on the
outcome of the enrollment this
week.
. As soon as the enrollment Is com
pleted, the Medford committee will
know exactly how much money can
be spent for concerts thla winter
arid wiu meet to make the selection.
Team captains and workers are to
report on Wednesday and again Fri

leadership of Mrs. Esther Church

ering that the faculty, students and
townspeople of Ashland were back

association that the students might
actually aee and hear the great art
ists they have como to know through
the radio, motion pictures, etc. She
suggested that those who are able.

dents who otherwise would be un

waa hurrying to Khabarovsk. Siberia,
to execute a "sweeping reformation'
of the trartS'Balknl forr.
Dispatches to the newspaper from
Vladivostok said Voroshlloff s "report
to the Kremlin regarding the
strength of the far eastern army
was expected finally to determine
the decision In Moscow."
The same source said the Soviet
Union hud extended the term of
service for soldiers In Siberia snd
wss rushing others Into the area as
"railway employees."
a dispatch to the newspaper
amm from Moscow said the Soviets
were fanning antl-Japanlsm by slo
gans and resolutions.
Japan's military forces are a mix
ture of men from both the active
and reserve lists. Military experts
said "Japsn Is avoiding the German
mistake In the World war of killing
off the best troops first.'."
Hence Japan Is using men of 35
to 40 along with the first liners who
are 20 and 23 years old." they said.
But Tokyo's forces along the
Manchoukuo frontier were reported
practically 100 percent from the
active rolla. They had the best war
equipment available.
Reliable Soviet sources expressed
belief that one of the principal
reasons why Japan had not declared
way on China was a possibility that
the Chinese -Russian non -aggression
pact contains a secret rider provld-
Ing for Soviet military assistance.

Formal certification of the In
sanity proceedings against Earl H
Fehl, former county Judge, filed last
Saturday by Fred C. Kelly, from the
county court to the circuit court,
was made yesterday by County Judge
EflH a. Day. The motion sets forth
that Judge Day, by reason of pro
ceedings filed by Fehl against him
Is disqualified to hear the case.
Similar action Is expected to be
takpn by Circuit Judge H. D. Norton,
and the state supreme court asked
to assign a new Judge for the
case.
Filing of the insanity charge
against Fehl will probably mean
postponement of the civil action of
H. Von Schmalz of Bums and George
A. Rhoten of Sot em, attorneys, aulng
Corlnthia E. Stnlley for $3,332.33 for
legal services rendered for Fehl. A
motion filed by Fehl to disqualify
Judge E. B. Ashurat of Klamath
county, assigned to hear the case, Is
also pending.
County authorities said today steps
were underway to speed the Insanity
hearing.
Fehl Is confined In a separate
ward In -the county Jail and does
not mingle with the other prisoner.

During the day. about 50.000 Chi

police struggled to handle distracted
Chinese throngs.
rhlnea Reek Safety.
After the Chinese army retreated
from Ha western sector and the Jap
anese forces started taking over the
territory, tens of thousands of Chi
enese refugees were sandwiched be
tween the two forces. They rushed
to the borders of the International
areas, begging admittance.
Although Mayor O. K. Yul was vlr-
tually without a city to govern, he
said his office would function as
usual from the French concession,
and added that he had no thought
of running away.
His Jurisdiction extended only over
a small area of the Nantao quarter.
American and foreign military ob
servers ssld the principal lesson of
the . Shanghai war waa that poorly
equipped but numerically superior
forces had little chance against a
smaller, well-mechanized and well-
organized army.
As in the Italian conquest of Ethi
opia, the airplane played a decisive
part In Shanghai operations. Jap
anese also used numbers of tanks,
armored cars, heavy guns and war
ships. Flesh Against Steel.
"It was largely a case of flesh
against steel," said one American of
ficer. "It was a miracle how China's
nondescript army held out so long
against the highly mechanized forces
of Japan."
Approximately 6,000 Chinese sol
diers, cut off on all sides by advanc
ing Japanese, took up positions In the
Nantao area adjolnlnlg the French
concession. Barricading themselves.
600 of the Isolated troops declared
they would hold out to the death
against invading Japanese.
They converted rows of Chinese
shacks facing the boundary of the
French concession Into veritable fort
resses and said only bombs or fire
would force them out. If the de
tachment were attacked from the
went or south. Japanese would be
forced to fire Into the French con
cession.
