Now Is the time to plan for
the leisure that comes with the
winter evenings. What do jou
most wish to know? What places
of the present or the past seem
most interesting? Which per
sonalities seem most inspiring or
dramatic?
The Jackson county library is
suggesting a new use of the li
brary's book collection during
the winter montns, especially
for residents of the county who
may not have easy access to the
central branch at Medford.
Home libraries of la to 25 books
will be loaned for periods of
two months for the use of indi
viduals and home groups, with
out the former necessity of ad
ministering such book collec
tions for the whole community.
There will be no restrictions ex
cept, as always, for safe return
of the books to the library and
compensation for real loss and
damage.
Selection of the books for the
home collections will be adapted
as much as possible to the pref
erences and tile purposes of the
persons who are to use them.

Word also was received from
Miss Harriet Long, state librar
ian, that the state library Is
ready to proceed with reading
courses for the winter. She says:
"I think no service we have ever
offered has been so much ap
preciated By individuals." These
are not stereotyped, previously
made up sequences of oooks on
conventional subjects but, In
stead, are made up as each re
quest is received and sets the as
pect of the individual project
Applications for the reading
courses may be had at the Med
ford public library.
The home collections offered
by the Jackson county library
constitute an additional service
to the public. The service is
intended primarily for residents
of areas who do not have easy
access to the library. The policy
of maintaining depots will be
continued.
NO COUNTY TAX BOOST
SEEN IN COMING YEAR
There will be no increase in
the tax levy for Jackson county
next year, County Assessor J.
B. Coleman said today, inasmuch
as the 1940 budget is practically
the same as last year, showing
only $124.70 increase. Not until
after the public hearing on the
budget, and its certification by
the budget committee will the
budget be extended on the rolls,
and the levies made.

ator Rufus C. Holman (R., Ore.)
returned from Washington to
day with a prediction that con
gress would adjourn as soon as
neutrality legislation was com
pleted. Holman said he stayed long
enough to vote against repeal of
the arm's embargo, which the
senate passed by an overwhelm
ing majority, but was ready to
return by plane if his presence
was necessary.
His colleague, Senator Charles
McNary (R Ora.), who said last
Thursday he would permit his
name to go before the Republi
can national convention as a
presidential candidate, Holman
described as one of the most
popular and best informed men

BERGDOLL TO GET
. Washington, Oct. 30 CAP)
G r o v e r Cleveland Bergdoll,
serving a sentence in a military
prison, soon will get back $300,
000 of an estate which the gov
ernment guarded 20 years for
him.
Attorney General Murphy has
ordered the convicted draft
evader of World war days be
given more than half the $535,
540 worth of property seized
when he fled to Germany in
1920.
To get the money, Bergdoll
had to consent to the govern
ment's keeping, temporarily at
least, 20 per cent of his prop
erty. This might be used to
satisfy awards to Americans
damaged by German activity
during the war.
