County Judge Day. and Commissioners Perry and Billings, arose in turn, and said they had paid their own way to the fair. County Engineer Paul Rynning explained part of the fund would be used to se cure federal legislation seeking money for highway improve ments, and the rest as the coun ty's share of the newly formed Pacific Highway Association, for the purpose of securing more tourist travel, and improve ments. Hood explained he want ed to know the facts, so he could refute the rumor. Henry Conger inquired about the allotment for stock inspec tion and thought as long as a fed eral inspector was stationed in the county, this was unneces sary. County Agent Robert G. Fowler explained the purposes, and County Judge Day said the time the government inspector would be available was proble matical, so the fund was neces sary. Alford Defends Item Former County Commissioner George Alford of Fern Valley was present and defended the budgeting of $600 for expenses of the county court in work con nected with sale of county lands. He declared it was a good investment, and good business, as viewed from his own experi ence as a county court member. The hearing was harmonious throughout, with Henry G. En- ders, of Ashland, acting as chair man. Other committee members present beside the county court were W. H. Young of . Eagle Point, and Leonard Carpenter of Medford. There were only 30 people present at the session, including six women, and a small boy, with his father. U. S. MAY STRETCH SUBMARINE NETS Washington, Nov. 24. (IP) Congressional sources said today that the navy may ask congress for funds to equip some of the nation's major harbors, particu larly those used by the fleet, with the latest type of anti-submarine nets. Well-informed persons said naval officials have learned the British have developed a new type of anti-submarine net so far superior to anything in the United States that consideration was being given to seeking about $40,000,000 to provide similar protection for American harbors. The new British net was de scribed as being composed of three-inch steel bars in a mesh small enough to stop torpedoes as well as submarines. IT E PUZZLES POLICE Eugene, Ore., Nov. 24. Wt Investigators are awaiting further study today of the char red body of Thorvald Peterson, lone chicken rancher whose re mains were found in his flam ing home seven miles south of here yesterday morning, before deciding whether his death was suicide or could be layed to foul play. The remains of the middle-aged man are being sent to Portland for an analysis today. A burned automatic pistol was found beneath Peterson's head. Three' other rifles were found in the ruins. Authorities are also baffled by the fact that five buildings, widely sep arated on a half acre plot of ground, were leveled by fires. The flaming buildings were dis covered by a passing woman I motorist. Moscow, Nov. 24 i.V) Soviet Russian newspapers, pressing attacks against Finland, today reported growing difficulties and dissension in Finland over the government's refusal to come to terms with Moscow. Dispatches datclined Helsinki. Finland, and Tallinn, Estonia, again accused Finnish leaders of wanting to go to war with the U.S.S.R. against the wishes of the Finnish people. (Finnish Premier Almo K. Cajnnder in a speech last night declared Finland had gone as far as possilble toward meeting Russian territorial demands and that "no war of nerves or econo mic pressure will make Finland bow down." (He represented Finland as ready to resume negotiations at any time but only on a "basis not implying a violation of her vital interests.")
