PAGE TWO MEDFORD MAIL TRIBUNE. MEDFORD. OREGON, TUESDAY. JUNE 25. 1940. RUE SANDWICH E) Murray Bell, owner of Mur ry' Maid-Rite, located at the corner of South Central and Bth itreetj, atated today that work men have completed the remod eling and expansion of hli sand wich shop. The expansion program has enabled the shop to double the counter space as well at install modern new fountain, Bell said. The shop will feature In ad dition to the poular food and fountain service, a drive-in tray service with ample parking pro vided for both drive-in and In side patrons, it was learned. Mr. Bell came to Medford six years ago from Newton, la., and opened the first Maid-Rite shop at (th and Crape streets, later disposing of It and opened Murray's Maid-Rite at its pres ent location. ST AT LAMM LUMBER CO EXPLAINED BY WORKER - Unsanitary living conditions and the method of operation of a company-owned store were al leged by J. O. McCulloch today as the reasons why employes of the Lamm Lumber company at Yanuay, 73 miles northeast of Klamath Falls, were out on strike. Mr. McCulloch, member of the publicity committee of the strikers, stated that the crew called strike vote "when the company failed to bring living and sanitary conditions In the camp up to standard and to state requirements," and that the com pany, in turn, pulled the crew off, shut down operations and labeled the action a lockout. "In order to get away from the profiteering in (he company's store, a supply department on the no-profit basis was set up behind the picket lines," Mr. Mc Culloch explained. He added that merchandise is brought In and distributed among the peo ple at cost. Mr. McCulloch said that 45 families and 80 or 90 bunkhouse men resided In the camp, many of them from Medford.

A T noon Monday (Pacific Coast time) the French en voys have been ordered to sign with Italy. They have already signed with Germany. The dis patches tell us that six hours after signing with Italy firing will cease. So ends a new chapter In the book of history. IT Isn't really new chapter only an old, old one, rewrit ten according to the old world standard pattern. France is stripped and hu miliated, made to bear the cost of the conqueror's occupation and administration, disarmed. compelled to be a passive en emy of her former comrade-ln-a r m a. Hereafter, Frenchmen must take orders from foreign conquerors. The result, as inevitable as the rising and the setting of the sun, will be a new fanning of the embers of hatred to be followed sooner or later by a new outbreak of the ever-more-terrible flames of war. HOW can you avoid saying to vnnrlf- "T.p' H t m n A America, to the last man, If need be, but KEEP OUT of this evir.rpriirrlnir aM wniM cycle of hatred and conquest and vengeance, to be followed quests and NEW vengeance." THE terms, according to sec- this Is written, call for surren der or Internment of the French fleet. There is still the possibility that the old recipe for rabbit soup may apply: "First catch your rabbit." A MEMBER of the French government at Bordeaux explains In today's (Monday's) dispatches his country's reasons for capitulating to Germany. The reasons seem to be the same as Godoy's for not con tinuing his fight with Joe Louis. pONGRESS. recessing for the Republican national conven tion, leaves behind a bill fot $14,039,970,627 to operate the U. S. government next year. The situation has so changed In recent weeks that hereafter those who protest against spend ing will be branded unpatriotic, but at least we can demand that boondoggling be done away with and the money be spent EFFICIENTLY for sound gov ernment and national defense. PARAPHRASING" Plnckney's immortal statement, the Re publicans might well make this the financial plank of their plat form: "Billions for defense, but not one cent for boondoggling." DRUNK DRIVER GIVEN 3C DAYS, $100 FINE Craig Mac Cooper of tho Tabla Rock district, charged with driving an automobile while under the Influence of In toxicating liquor, entered a plea of guilty and was sentenced 10 serve 30 days in the county Jail, fined $100 and his driver's license was ordered revoked for a year, by Justice Coleman today. Commitment was deferred upon payment of the fine and costs, and the court granted 30 days in which to make pay ments. Rattlln' Good Story St. Augustine. Fla. (JP) E. C. Creech of St. Augustine drove his automobile over a rattle snake on the highway and then got out to see if he had killed it. The automobile wheel, Creech said, not only killed the snaka but had made it cough up a dime, dated 1913. Biographer Dies Portland, June 2S. W) Mrs. Minnie Roof Dre. 73, author of the George H. Himes biography "from oxcart to airplane," and prominent northwest writer, died yesterday. Maid - Rite & Burner Co. DISPUTE DELAYS (OobUdum from n Om.) was imperilled by those who would make the government and nation tools to be manipulated by one man at the head of an unelected oolitical bureaucracy Martin asserted that "a steady drift toward governmental ab solutism both at home and abroad" must be checked this year, and declared the purpose of his party f convention to be "to rally all patriots In cru sade for Americanism." Even before the first thin stream of delegates had begun to move into the big convention hall, Willkie told delegates of ni native Indiana in a break fast talk that he was not "dis couraging other candidacies," but on the contrary thought they were "all fine men." Gang Up On Willkie Leaders of the forces of Sen ator Taft and Dewey simulta neously were tightening their lines against inroads by the tousle-haired utility man. Though a "stop-Willkie" move ment had been dumped Into the convention, no open alliance of the opposing forces to achieve that purpose was disclosed. In a press conference, J, Rus sell Sprague, the New Yorker's manager, said he was standing by his prediction of 400 Dewey votes on the first ballot and forecast an increase of "at least SO" on the second. Sprague agreed there had been some "fluctuations" in delegate line ups. Willkie used the occasion of the Indiana talk to say "the utility issue" had been raised against him and added: "Surely the Republican party will not want to engage in the new deal custom of raising class distinctions. I have been inves tigated by every new deal agen cy. If you can find any suc cesful accusation against me, I want you to be against me." Governor Harold E. Stassen. of Minnesota, in his keynote address last night told the crowded convention hall that these times call for a frank approach to problems If democ racy is to live. Unity Needed 'We must have a united peo ple with each citizen willing to make sacrifices and ready to stand shoulder to shoulder in the interests of national de fense," he said. The audience gave loud ap plause when he termed the cab inet nomination of Henry L. Stimson and Frank Knox, prom inent Republicans, "a politically timed appointment on the eve of this convention" and one by which "the president made an eleventh hour confession of tailure in his national defense administration." Stassen criticised President Roosevelt's proposal for compul sory national training, along with a wide variety of new deal actions. When he asked if the nation dare continue for the next four years under such leadership, the crowd roared back: "No." 41 OW THEY" STAND American League W. L. PC.
