Your Help Is Needed
'T'HB drive for Community Chest funds here has figuratively
"bogged down" on the home stretch. Chest officials are
alarmed for, unless a new impetus be given to. the campaign,
the essential, smooth-working programs of the six participating
agencies will be seriously impaired. ' 4 '
They are putting the facts squnrely np to citizens of Medford
and Jackson county in the hope that those who have not already
contributed, and those who can afford to, in a more generous
degree, will put their shoulders to the wheel . and put this
worthy project over, as it mast be put over, if some of our
deserving citizens are not to suffer.
Twenty thousand dollars was the quota set for the ensuing
year. In the judgment of conservative Medford business men
who prepared the chest budget, this sum was deemed the
necessary minimum for the continuation of the chest program.
At the present time subscriptions total only $15,600.
IT IS NOT ENOUGH I
see
"THOSE who haTe made a study of Medford ' Community
Chest financial set-up and the problems of individual, par
ticipating agencies, frankly admit that the present program may
be oontinucd however on a restricted basis if the $18,000 mark
can be reached. This would require a pro-rata cut in the
budgets of all participating organizations, with corresponding
curtailment of the valuable work of each.
So there are the cards face up on the table!
A minimum of $2400 MUST be secured at once. Here is
an inescapable COMMUNITY OBLIGATION. No person who
can afford to contribute should "be content in taking a FREE
RIDE on the other fellow's generosity."
PACH of the chest's member agencies is performing distinct
services in the field of family welfare and health, and in
the important work of advancing the cause of Youth. As
pointed out in this column before, the activities of these agen
cies are essentially OURS ; the federal government can not and
will NOT assume them.
This fact was stressed by President Roosevelt in his recent
nation-wide radio broadcast which formally opened the 1938
Mobilization for Human Needs.
The chief executive pointed out that the government has
accepted increased responsibility for social welfare, but insisted
the need for private charitable cooperation "is just as great
as before, because government help was intended to improve
the old conditions and if local help and private help decrease
today, we will nullify the improvement and return to just
where we were before."
That's true in Medford. Medford generosity has never
failed before! With the present need so great, it MUST not
fail in this emergency! H. G.
Dr. Townsend Is Right
THERE is one measure on the ballot this year which should
lift dtinwoH nnrlpr. Thnf ia tllfl niPDHlirA known flfi t.hA fliti'ellK
Retirement Annuity bill, designed to pay older people up to
$100 per month from the procoeds of a multiple transaction tax.
Passing o'er the fact we now have a state pension system for
the older people, and we also have the federal social- security
measures, if the benefits of these are inadequate, the sensible
thing to do is extend them, not resort to duplication and in
crease the general confusion, by new and entirely untried
legislation, '
But, disregarding these obvious and valid objections, (here
is one that should in itself be conclusive, and make the negative
decision practically unanimous,
The transaction tux is the basic principle of the Townsend
program, and yet, Dr. Townsond opposes this measure and has
publicly urged his followers to vote against it.
Certainly if Dr. Townsend and his followers don't favor this
retirement annuity measure, based upon the essential principle
of their own proposal, why should ANYONE favor it!
AND Dr. Townsend's argument against it, is a couvineiug one.
Rrinflv it ia t Ilia i
A pension fund raised by a transaction or sales tax, to be
satisfactory must be universal,-that is national in scope. If
it isn't, if it is confined, as this proposal is, within the boun
daries of a state, it can't fail but work a great hardship upon
that state, give an unfair business advantage to its competitors.

IS THIS PERSECUTION?
Lib
In backwoodi hamlet in Penn
sylvania lives a ' man who doesn't
believe In vaccination. The man re
fused to have his young eon vac
cinated. When
the son tried to
enter the public
school In hi dis

fused to admit
the child to
school.
You know th
way the racket
Is worked. Un
der a sort of re
clprocatlng stat
ute or law the
authorities then had the man where
they could put the screws on him.
They arrested him for falling to keep
his child In school! The man took
It on the chin, refused to paya fine,
went to Jail for five days.
That rigmarole has been worked
many times in the past year or so
and the man has spent more than
year in Jail rather than give In
that Is. to anyone else than the boy
sponsible for the sorry Joke, and still
they have accomplished absolutely
nothing for the benefit of the community.
Not even the most brazen medical
politician, health commissioner or
sanitary officer can cite a Just' or
adequate reason for such persecu
tion of a citizen. . No intelligent or
honest physician can maintain that
It matters one little damn whether
that man's boy Is vaccinated or not.
that Is, to anyone else than the boy
and his parent or guardian. If .all
the children who are admitted to
school are vaccinated, if all teachers,
school janitors and others who visit
the school are vaccinated, what la
there to worry about, even if some
one with smallpox should come to
school and expose everybody? Noth
ing at all, If we are sincere in our
belief and teaching about smallpox
and vaccination. We believe that
vaccination protects one against
smallpox. If we are properly vac
cinated ourselves, surely we are not
concerned about coming in contact
with anyone who has not been vac
cinated, or even with anyone who Is
actually coming down with or ill of
sort of travesty.
That the health authorities of the
particular community where this
wretched persecution Is carried on.
do acquiesce In the shameful per-1
formance is hard to believe. Are
they, the medical and health author
Ities In Pennsylvania, so subservient
to the politicians and the crooks that
they haven't the decency or honor
to speak out and lend the weight
of their authority, to the reform of
the vicious laws that permit that
sortof travesty?-
I have received several appeals from
persons associated with the defense
of the man under persecution they
asked me to volunteer to testify.
But these appeals have been mixed
up with other propaganda of which
I do not and cannot approve, so I
have not responded to the appeals.
If the medical profession and the
sanitary profession desire to retain
the confidence and good-will 'of the
American public we can ill afford
to perpetrate any such tricks as these
Pennsylvania authorities are perpe
trating in the name of public welfare.

Comment
on the
Day's News
By FRANK JENKINS
IF you are Interested In the subject
of gambling, either for or against,
you should study carefully three
measures that will .be on the Oregon
ballot at the November election. '
Two of the measures (306-309 and
310-311) are intended to TIGHTEN
the present law AGAINST gambling.
The third, a constitutional amend
ment (324-325), is designed to LOOS
EN THE RESTRICTIONS by legal Ic
ing certain forms of gambling.
YOU will remember, doubtless, that
there is haziness in Oregon law
regarding slot machines, dart gatr s,
pin-ball games, etc., which - are al
leged to possess an alement of skill.
This haziness Is materially increased
by a statute enacted by a recent Ore
gon legislature.
1 The purpose of Noi. 308-300 and
310-311 Is to remove this haziness
and make easier and surer the en
forcement of laws against gambling.
No. 310-311 specifically repeals the
confusing law passed by the legisla
ture the law under which Jlot ma
chines and similar gambling devices
ran wild a while back.
The

" (Continued from Page One )
HE constitutional amendment
at ' (324-336 legalizes certain lotter
ies and other forms of gsmbltng and
authorizes the state to license them.
It holds out the bait of added rev
enue for aid age pensions. It talks a
lot about "strict regulation and con
trol with proper safeguards for
youth," but Its result; If adopted, will
be to throw Oregon more or less wide
open to the gamblera.

T is plain to see how true this would be in Oregon, if by any
chance this ill considered measure should ho adopted.
Two of our basic industries are fruit and lumber. In both,
Oregon has to compete with Washington and California.
No one knows precisely how much a cumulative transaction
tax in this state would raise the price of domestic commodities,
but that it would have to raise them MATERIALLY is beyond
question.
And of course, there would be no similar tax lexied on the
lumber and fruit of Washington and California.
As a result our two neighboring stotes could undersell us in
this country and abroad. It is scarcely an exaggeration to say,
that if this halfbaked bill SHOULD pass, it would put both
of these basio industries out of business, and if not repealed,,
bankrupt the state.
NOW if this were ouly the opinion of the business and bank
ing interests the conservative interests of this state,
there might be some question, in the minds of those who are
"pension-conscious."
But when it is ALSO the opinion of Dr. Townsend, the father
of the transaction tax pension plan, how CAN there he any
doubt, reasonable or otherwise!
As we see it there can't he. The negative vote on this
measure should be unanimous.

promising conservative, he ran for
lieutenant-governor in 1936, and, in
spite of a good record and consider
able popularity, he was badly beaten
by a no-account opponent.
That, and the simultaneous victory
of young Senator Henry Cabot Lodge,
whom no one could call uncompro
mising, constituted the lesson by
which Lev and Dick Saltonstall pro
fited. During their pre-primary cam
paign, they examined their situation,
decided that without new methods
the nomination would be easy but
the election impossible, and promptly
joined forces with Cabot Lodge.
Lodge, for all his name, ia probably
the most completely practical Repub
lican, politician in the country. If
any exception ahould be made, It
must be for Lodge's official secretary
and personal nestor, Uncle Tom
White, who served Calvin Coolidge as
a political expert and returned from
retirement to serve Lodge in the same
capacity. Uncle Tom, a genial and
profane individual who prefers' to
work behind the scenes, received his
most accurate tribute from an ad
mirer who exclaimed, "Why, he can
think of thousands of things, nice
things, clean things, beautiful things
that get you everything and cost you
nothing.'
Uncle Tom became the Saltonstall
idea man. Sometime before, he had
quietly managed the capture of the
mayoralty of Newton, stronghold of
the leading Republican extremist,
Sinclair Weeks, for his own extremely
just-folksy candidate, Edward Childs.
His first step was to make Chlids take
the silk-stocking curse off Saltonstall,
in a speech proclaiming that "what
ever his name may be, Lev Saltonstall
not only haa a south Boston face; he
also haa a south Boston heart."
Then Lodge, the Saltonstalls and
Uncle Tom stage-managed a remark
able Republican convention, at which
amid scenes of strange enthusiasm
the Townsend) te candidate for gov
ernor promised his support on the
public platform, while Lodge made a
speech scarcely mentioning the New
JJeai or curley, but giving Saltonstall
credit for ail the social legislation in
sight. After that, It haa been Uncle
Tom's kind of campaign, brutally
practical, replete with appeals to spe
cial Interest groups and, above all.
calculated to convince the voters
simply that they'll be happier with
Saltonstall in the governor's chair.
If Saltonstall wins, he and his back
ers have plans to reconvert to Re
publicanism scores of thousands of
different sorts of people now seem
ingly lost to the party forever. In
fact, by compromising when necessary
they hope to make their party a
regular election-winner.
This state may be on the eastern
seaboard, and out of the main politi
cal current of the country. But,
in view or what the new men are
doing here, every Republican should
remember the example of Calvin
Coolidge, and "have faith in Massa
chusetts." -
