PAGE SIX MEDFORD MAIL TRIBUNE, MEDFORD. OREGON, FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 17, 193b. REGISTRY CHECK AT STATEBORDER Economy Move Causes Abandoning Oft Criticized Annoyance for Autoists Sacramento, Nov. 17. fP) All border checking stations have been ordered closed by the department ol motor vehicles "in line with a drastic economy program necessitated by depart ment budget reductions," Di rector Howard R. Philbrick an nounced. The stations affected are at Dunsmuir, Truckee, Daggett, Yermo, Blythe and Yuma. Those affected are the state vehicle department stations which check on the registration of incoming and outgoing auto mobiles after inspection by de partment of agriculture agents. An estimnted saving to tax payers of $75,000 a year, Phil- brick said, "in the department's opinion justifies abandonment of the expensive and frequently- criticized service which some tourists consider an annoyance." Conference Slated At the same time, Philbrick said a conference of California, Oregon, Washington and pos sibly Arizona and New Mexico officials will be held at Salem, Ore., Nov. 27 to discuss motor vehicle reciprocity regulations. He said the chief problem has developed between Oregon and California following an opinion by Attorney General Earl War ren that Oregon's procedure does not accord full reciprocity to Californians operating north of the border in commercial ve hicles. Warren will represent California at the conference. Salem, Nov. 17. (ff) State officials will confer here Novem ber 27 with California officials over proposed, reciprocal ar rangements regarding motor ve hicles.

Participating in the confer ence will be Snell, Superinten dent of State Police Charles P. Pray, Attorney General I. H. Van Winkle, Attorney General Earl Warren of .California, and Howard Philbrick, director of motor vehicles in California. .

UP) Assert ing hi6h school students "know more about cheers than chores," Roger Babson, investment spec ialist, charged today the school system in the United States was "primarily responsible for at least 7,000,000 of the 10,000,0011 unemployed" in the nation. Business men. he declared in a prepared address before the New England Association of School Superintendents, "are forced to cease to employ the young men and women emerg ing from a broken-down organi zation which has been despoiled by political raiders." Ten Factors Listed Babson listed 10 factors which he said contributed to unem ployment, but added "the big reason is that young people are being graduated from our schools today as goods are being sold to department stores. Po litically minded school commit tees are giving these children not what untrained . children need but what misled parents think they want them to have. "I insist that the growth of our country, which was so marked previous to 1930, was largely the result of the school system preceding 1915. Con- trarywisei that the poor stock which has graduated since 1930 has largely been due to the de cline since 1915-' in character of school committees." Trail Trail, Nov. 17.

Nov. 17 UP) Re tail sales turnover remained at substantially high levels this week despite a slight contraction in volume from the previous week, Dun & Bradstreet said to day in a weekly survey. "Activu turnover was f ha red by practically all departments." the agency said, "although wear ing apparel, particularly wo men's coats and furs was out standing in most cities." The increase above last year was placed at 8 to 16 per cent. "As a rule, however," the sur vey said, "buying in agricultural areas appeared more cautious than in September, whon farm prices were moving up rapidly, and industrial sections seemed to be improving their relative position. "A number of stores opened Christmas departments during the week and gift merchandise began to move in promising quantities. Purchasing was re ported to be largely in the more expensive brackets."

He believes that these practices of the little bosses have been detrimental to labor as a whole, and prompted by the little bosses for their per sonal gain and not for the good of the members of their unions.

This conclusion was one of the factors satisfying the new deal ers th;:t they are on the right track in launching the present and pending prosecutions. i the engineers made an exhaustive study U.S0O pages) of the Columbia river and Its tributaries.

The "spies" are union members who, In some In stances, have been sfrald to protest In union halls. All over the land there will be Indictments and trials with a view to exterminating the labor racketeers. To bring peace and prosperity to lsbor, Mr. Roosevelt knows there Is more than one way to kill a cat. NEGOTIATIONS are said to be practically completed for the biological survey to purchnae 14.000 acres of the "O O Ranch" In Harney county, Oregon, and thereby extend the Malheur bird refuge. The "Double O" was one of two ranches (the other "Belle A"), owned and operated by the late BUI Hanley, pioneer cattle ktng of central Oregon, who died In Pendleton on the day that the Round Up held a special celebration in his honor. On the "Double O" are warm springs which never freeze, one of the reasons why the biological survey wants the home ranch of the picturesque character. among dealers in building sup plies. Everyone at a listening post in the national capital is aware that Mr. Roosevelt himself is GUESSES based on the army engi neers' report Indicate that the 1940 census should give Washington a population of 2.283,131; Oregon a population of 1.430.779.
