Clo.li time lot ni Late to Clas SU) Au u (i o Get All The Facts rilS paper is interested only in the FAGTS regarding the city bond election on Wednesday, For we are certain if the people have the facts, ALL the facts they will from the standpoint of plain self interest vote for these bonds. Certainly as we see it only those who don't understand the proposal, haven't all the facts, could vote against them. ' . For it is something unusual in our municipal life to have an opportunity to have on outside source, in' this case the federal government, contribute nearly $60,000 in bard cash to give us a greatly needed civic improvement. ' Not often in the past has Medford had the pleasure of being offered such an amount of money, on a silver platter. And if advantage is not taken of this offer three days hence, it will be gone forever, or at least as far as the present pump prim ing program is concerned. . . ON Friday we corrected the false report that if this $711,500 bond issue is authorized, it imposes a tax without limita tion, or will be in any sense different from any of the other general obligation bonds, of the city. We trust therefore no one will go to the polls on Wednesday and vote against the bonds under this misapprehension. These bonds if passed, will obligate the city for the $73,500 with interest only, and when that amount is paid, the entire, issue will be wiped out. In no essential do these bonds differ from any other general obligation bonds. NOW we are informed that if this bond issue is authorized, such authorization will not cancel the two-mill tax levy formerly imposed for this road reconstruction, and therefore, the circulators of this second "alarum" intimate that this levy WILL be imposed, even though the bond issue is authorized. There is no more truth in this, than in the other canard. Obviously the two-mill levy could not be repealed or SHOULD not be, until the bond issue has been authorized. For if the bond issue should be voted down, and the two mill levy repealed at the same time, no funds would be availuble to carry on to completion the paving program which has already started. . Mayor Furnas and the members of the City Council have publicly gone on rejord, and the resolution to that effect spread upon the minutes, that if this bond issue is authorized, the two-mill levy will be repealed, at the earliest possible moment. Certainly no sane person can believe, that this pledge will not be carried out. The members of the council and the Mayor in fact, were as loath as any tax payers could be, to increase the bonded in debtedness of Medford by one .thin dime, but they decideil, and decided correctly, that such an opportunity as the now federal pump priming program offered, should not be pussed by, that really they had NO RIGHT to deny the people the opportunity to secure this gift of nearly $60,000, if they ,o desired. ' IF the people of Medford don't waut this gift, it will certainly A be perfectly OUeh with the members of the city government as it will be with this newspaper. It is a matter for the people to decide, and the people only. But they should decide it in the light of ALL the facts,' with a clear understanding of EVERYTHING) involved, and not under sueh misapprehensions and vine," is trying to produce at the 11th hour.

Well it shouldn't. But is it any more interference for a President to urge the people to vote a certain way in 4 BYE election, than in a REGULAR election! And if the latter is not improper interference, why should the former bef In both cases whether the President is running for re-election, or members of the congress are, he is saying what he wishes the people would do, but also certainly in both instances tho people arc freo to go to the polls and do as they darn please ! A S to the views of George Washington, we have always liked what President Woodrow Wilson told the members of the Virginia Bar association in 1897 long before he was President and long before the "father of his country," was politically res urrected to become the chief opponent of the League of Nations. Here it is: "Our fathers chose government to suit their ctrcumstancea not to suit their ancestors, and we must follow the same good rule."

IMMUNITY AOAIN In Prance there are 3.000 deaths annually from diphtheria and about 30,000 cases of the disease annually. For years It has been obliga tory tor French soldiers to be Im munized against diphtheria with toxoid,- which Is called anatoxlu In France. Not long ago the lower house of the French legislature pass ed a bill extend ing . such com pulsory Immunization (it Is Inaccur ate to call It vaccination) to all children during the second or third year. Early In June of this year the French senate passed a similar b(U, so that Immunisation against diph theria is now compulsory in France. Parents or guardians are made re sponsible for having all children Im munized. No child can be admitted to school without a certificate show ing that this law has been compiled with. On publication of the new law In early June notice was given that all children up to the age of 14 who had not been Immunized must be Immunized as soon as possible. ' The immunization! with toxoid will be carried out entirely at gov ernment expense. The French gov ernment regards this as an econom ical policy, believing that the outlay will be amply compensated by & marked reduction In the present sick rate of 30,000 cases a year and the death rate of 3,000 cases a year from diphtheria. They do some things better abroad It never occurs to the United States government or to the Domin ion government or to tho various state or ' provincial governments to assume all the cost ot producing vac cine, antitoxin, Pasteur virus, toxin antitoxin or toxoid and all the cost of protecting citizens with these agents. In thU country we prefer to go at It In Romo complicated, furtive, Indirect v;ay, which will give petty politicians opportunity for a bit of legitimate graft and a chance to vent their spite on a few citizens who happen to resent assault or perhaps people who do not believe in such practices. We put one law or ordin ance on the books which makes it obligatory to send children to school; bit of history and geography. The Dardanelles perhaps five miles wide and 120 long connects the mpq Iterranean with the Sea of Mar mora and then the Bonphorua less than a mile wide and 18 miles long leads east to the Black sea, Istanbul Is built at the meeting of the Mar mora and the Bosphorus. Europo and Asia are separated by that very thin line of cobalt blue water. The ruf fians of the Crusades, especially from Eastern Europe what today is Po land, Germany and the Danubian countries mounted their horses, whistled to their wives, dogs and re tainers and started walking to the Holy Sepulchre at Jerusalem. The city of Constantino was on their way so they stopped there much to the annoyance of the emperor of the Eastern Roman Empire. In order to get rid of these unwelcome guests he ferried them across the narrow strip of water, knowing full well that the cllmato and the Araba would take care of the problem. The fourth crusade was diverted from Palestine by the Merchants of Venice In order to help collect a debt and took and sacked Constantinople. However, tnai waa not the end of the Christian City for It continued to flourish as the center of Ore ex and western culture until 1453 when It fell to the Turk and has been the center of eastern culture, torture, re ligion and wealth until a decade &o. THERE aro very few ruins hers. The pttlaces and mosques are begin ning to go the way of Athens and Rome but the disintegration is Just commencing. If we glance Ins'de the old palace what do we find? Court yards of many sizes and shapes hem med In by dreary buildings. Here the kitchens where 800 cooks lnbored a thousand sheep were slaughtered and consumed every day. Through a gate way And Into rooms where In stacks. In cabinets and covering the walls and ceilings are over one hundred thousand plates and platters of china from China. Not the China that Bridget breaks but the china that Aunt Lizzie kept In the corner cabi net to gaze at. All brought on the backs of slaves, of camels, or donkeys, thousands of miles over deserts and mountain passes and whits water rivers. "Hurry hurry don't waste your time on Ming China." What Is here? The dagger of Salo din. Inlaid with Jewels of which the most prominent are six emeralds the size and shape of a hen'a egg cut lengthwise. The Jewels on this 10 Inch throat slitter are valued at two million English pounds. This Is only unique because of its erstwhile own ership not because of its gems. There are eight large rooms here filled with gold and Jewels as ornaments for every occasion. Forehead plumes for the horses of the sultans, guard -studded with diamonds and pearls. Crowns snd necklaces for the sultans. Yards of eloth woven from pure gc'.d thread. Thrones covered to the last millimetre with pearls, diamonds snd gold embossed needle work so line that even a painter's came) hair brush could not paint It finer. If the English fleet had sailed up the Sea ,f Marmora the loot mtshl -.ave paid the war debts.

This la a favorite pastime of crooked politicians In America medical and, lay. No Intelligent medical man can get around the fundamental fact that. If vaccination affords the protection we believe It does, no one who la vac cinated has anything to fear from one who Is not vaccinated, In any circumstances. Therefore people who believe In vaccination have no ground for Imposing their belief upon people who for any reason do not wish to be vaccinated. QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS Rabbles In Man Our hygiene class discussed sub ject of rabies and Pasteur treatment Instructor was surprised when I said modern medical opinion doubted even existence of rabies In man. Can you give me references to scientific evidence, experimental or clinical data bearing on the question? (B. J. P.) Answer Until someone discovers a germ or other cause of rabies, there can be no scientific proof of such a disease. I can only give my earnest conviction that rabies does not occur in manj I bellove the cause of death In some cases the health department oracle designates as rabies Is actu ally tetanus, (lock Jaw) which gains entrance through the bite or scratch Just as that or any other Infection may gain entrance through any wound, scratch or puncture. But my opinion Is shared by few physicians, I fear; you will find the great ma jority of physicians still believe in human rabies even in so-called Pas teur treatment (homeopathic doses of the spinal cord of an animal pre sumably dead of rabies). Fruit Acids What acids are In strawberries, peaches, apricots, plus, cherries, pine apples, prunes, nectarines, cranber ries? (M. H.) Answer Citric, tartaric, malic acids all readily oxidized In the body, into carbon dioxide ' and alkaline bases. Cranberries, plums and prunes contain some benzoic acid, not oxi dized. Ed Note .

Beverly Hills, Calif. vorlto and hundreds of women who were collected from all over the east for their grace snd beauty to act as entertainers and personal servants. Here the ruler felt comparatively safe although he knew that his life de pended upon an ever watchfulness. His food came from the kitchens sealed In the containers with the cartouch of the head cook. He opened It and fed some to his dogs. If they ate, then to his white eunuchs and only then he ate. His least suspicion was translated Into the bastinado, the sack thrown Into the sea or the strangling cord. Also If he wanted to add to his collection he simply blotted out the unlucky owners. Many of the finest mosques were third and fourth century Christian churches. Santa Sophia la a good example. Once a church with a dome almost 300 feet from the floor and large enough to accommodate 30,000 worshippers contained some of the very best mosaics In the world. Huge holy pictures of Christ, the Virgin and many scenes from Christ's life on the domes and walls. These were all covered with yellow plaster and the Mohammedan symbols painted. Thus for centuries the pictures made with tiny colored stones and cubes of golden glass were covered. Only now are they being cleaned and restored. PRESIDENT Ataturk (Kemal Pasha the Dictator to us) has moved his capital to Angora In order to get away from the Intrigue of Europe and Asia. He haa abolished thefz, the veil, the Turkish dress, has struck a hard blow at religion, has raised the level of women, has substituted our alphabet for the -eld compllcsted Persian characters, has backed educa tion and sanitation. He was living in his palace on the Bosphorus when we were In Istanbul and his yacht which he recently purchased from an Amer ican lady for four million dollars, was moored Just abaft our beam. The parts of the eastern Mediter ranean which we have seen are poor. It Is a constant source of amazement how the great cities of the past could have existed. The only answer seems to depend upon a different climate from what we have here now.

The latter are in charge of the chauf feur who is said to know more about what we have seen than anyone else aboard. Perhaps that Is because he chatters lees than most. There Is really no point to this story except that one would naturally not expect a couple of Scottles to be on a month's cruise. But, after all perhaps they are Just as logical as most of the two-legged trippers. We had a brief glance Into the Black sea yesterday afternoon 'and that marked our furthest point east. Now we are pointed homeward and in due course will arrive. I find that Medford pears are not unknown and that the various Christmas boxes of Cornice bring Joy to the palate of many who have followed this trail of Odyssus. . . f Comment on the Day's News By FRANK JENKINS COMMANDER FRANK HAWKS, world-famous speed filer whe haa dared death In a hundred spec tacular ways, loses his life in a rela tively simple crash fouling some wires as he was taking off after a trial spin to test a new ship. He bad retired from speed flying to encer commercial aviation. Life's like that. We take long chances, and get away with thein, only to be upset by some simple er ror of Judgment. The point Is that LITTLE .things as well as big ones, are Important. NEWPORT'S dead whale problem Is solved, an Albany rendering company coming to the rescue and converting the carcass Into fertili7r. Thus what threatened to De a men ace Is turned Into a benefit. That's American Ingenuity for you, Taking what appears to be a handi cap and turning It into an advan tage. NOTE, please, that private enter prise, and not government help, got Newport out of its whale trou ble, and It didn't cost the taxpayers a cent. Not only that, but somebody stands to make an honest profit out of the Job, and when somebody mokes an honest profit It's pretty sure to lead to a Job for somebody else. THERE'S always something new In the world, and now it's the golfathon. The golfathon was Invent ed by a Chicago broker, who played 144 holes In one day. His record was promptly beaten by a 150-pound housewife, who pMven 1S4 holes In a day and as she dusted off her hands end called It quits re marked: "It's easier than housework, at that." SOUNDS nutty, doesn't It? But. In comparison with a lot of th nutty things that are being dene In this old world, it's wiser than Solo mon ever dreamed of In his day. If Hitler and Mussolini and th! Japanese military autocrats could work off their surplus energies in a golfathon, instead of starting warn and destroying wealth and killing people, this would be a better world.

WINDOW GLASS We sell window glass and will replace your broken windows reasonably Trowbridge Cab inet Works. as Security for a Quick Cash L oan a Man About Manhattan By GfcOKUE TICK KB NEW ORLEANS As state director of the Federal Writers' Project, Lyle Saxon Isn't making as much money as he would be If he were sitting at a desk on his place nesr Mel rose plantation, pounding out fiction, but ho is having a lot of fun and accom ' pushing some thing that will benefit his ca reer in the long run as well as p e r f or mtng a chore of indutl able merit for the . people of feEOX&E TUCKtA Louisiana. Lyle la writing four books, the first of which is already on the market, and under his hand are some 85 as sistants doing research, compiling data on early Louisiana history and In general accumulating a fund of material that has never before been available to the public. Saxon's first book is the "New Or leans City Guide," a magnificent piece of work that begins with the days of LaSatle and ends with pres ent New Orleans. His second, well underway, is a guide to Louisiana, doing for the state as a whole what the first has done for this city. A. third will deal with folklore In Louisiana, and the fourth takes up the history of tbf Negro from the time he was chained in the hold of slave ships to the pres ent day. This represents exhaustive research and, as Saxon tells you, "All of my previous books took so long that of ten I was months on end doing re search before the actual writing go', underway, With 'LaFitte the Pirate, for Instance, I was a whole year ac cumulating data before a line was set down on paper." But when Lyle was writing that book, and "Fabulous New Orleans," and "Father Mississippi," to name n few, he was doing all the work him self. Now he has a staff of 85 doing the heavy chores. He thinks the con siderable sum In money sacrificed by this assignment wil amply be repaid him when this accumulated data comes under his hand. Lyle Saxon Is an amiable, easy- go tng, big, gray-haired, 46-year-old fel low with a talent for conversation and a fine appreclattcn of were wolves, ghosts, witches, eccentric? and pirates. He makes his home at the St. Charles hotel and counts among his friends William Faulkner. Carl Cramer and his wife (the former Betty Black of New Orleans), Sher wood Anderson Roark Bradford, aiul many others. As for his private work, now intrr rupted by the writers' project, he has on hand a half-completed novnl which deals with the career of a Southern family from the days of re construction to the present. His most recent book was "Children of Strang ers," based on the rather delicate subject of people who believe they are whltts but aren't. As for pleas ant surprises, there have been two within the year, things that pleased htm very much. One was when Cecil B. DeMllle bought his baok "LaFttU the Pirate" and made It into "The Buccaneer." The second was when Pare Lorena produced the film "Thr River," and then told everybody tbat of all books written on the Mississip pi, the two which seemed most au thoritative to him were "Life On th. Mississippi" by Mark Twain, and "Fa ther Mississippi" by Lyle Saxon. Phone 543 We'll haul away your refuse. City Sanitary Service. STARTS TODAY - I 1 1 isan i V r v II A A ADDED SHORTS I;-; '-"-Maw.
