Newspaper Page TextPAGE TWO MEDFORD MAIL TRIBUNE, MEDFORD, OREGON, WEDNESDAY, OCTOBER 25, 1939. IS INSTALLED IN I11MJCE CAR Prowl Auto Is Linked With State Broadcast System In Fight Against Crime. ' Medford took a long stride forward in its war against crime when a short-wave radio receiv ing set was installed Monday In one of the two city police prowl cars, thus linking city authori ties and equipment with the short-wave radio system being used by the state police, state highway department and other law enforcement agencies. The receiving set, one of two purchased by the city, was In stalled by Frank Rogers, build ing and light inspector, and was checked by Dave Rces, radio technician. A set will be in stalled In the other prowl car after the first of the year, police said. The receiving set operates on the same wave length as those In state police patrol cars. Mes sages are broadcast from state police headquarters in city hall and are sent over the air through the transmitter station north of Medford, which is con nected with state police office by telephone wire. Regular Call Number The city police prowl car has a regular call number, the same as state police vehicles, and will receive the same messages. Installation of the sets In prowl cars will greatly aid In law enforcement duties of the city police, it was explained. In stead of prowl cars being forced to report to the station when the night police light is flashed, they will receive the informa tion directly from the station via the short wave radio, speed ing up action on hurried calls.

(AP) Steady buying brought about a quiet rally in the' stock market today and leading issues were boosted fractions to around 2 points. Heaviest transactions were at the opening and during the morning when steels, rails and alrcrafts were favored. Later the motors and automobiles acces sories enjoyed a run. There was some profit taking around the ICAN L TALKS 10 ROTARY Niel R. Allen, Grants Pass at torney and state commander of the American Legion, discussed the legion's attitude on neutral ity at the Tuesday luncheon meeting of Medford Rotary club. A number of Grants Pass Rotarl ans made the journey here to hear Allen's address. In his introductory remarks, the speaker pointed out that World war veterans are dying at the rate of 117 a day, yet the American Legion, with a million members, has the highest mem bership in the past five years. "The American Legion has a unique sales campaign that of selling the Importance of neu trality on one hand, and selling the need for more adequate na tional defense on the other," Allen said. "We cannot be neu tral as individuals but we can maintain peace as a nation," he emphasized. Mr. Allen told of the task of the legion's committee, at the recent national convention, to decide upon a resolution that would express the organization's attitude upon the present neu trality question. One thing this resolution insisted upon was that congress remain In session dur ing these critical days as this nation is entitled to its entire governmental force on the job to make decisions when prob lems arise. "Oceans have shrunk and need for sufficient armed force to maintain national defense is imperative," Allen said in conclusion. PLANE SCHEDULES TO CHANGE HERE ON NOVEMBER 1 Autumn schedule of United Air Lines effective November 1 was announced today by Max C. Henne, company manager here.
