MEDFORD MAIL TRIBUNE. MEDFQTTO. OREGON. THURSDAY. AUGUST 1. 1940. PAGE SEVEN k 4 Mayor Urges Citizens to Join In Tribute to Sugar Industry Mayor Charles C. Furnas to day proclaimed August 2 to 17 as "Oregon Sugar Tine," and urged recognition and sup port by Medford citizens of the rapidly growing beet sugar In dustry of Oregon. The Amalgamated Sugar com pany plant at Nyssa, described as the nation s newest beet su gar factory, began its operations In the fall of 1938, it was point ed out by David W. Evans, of Stevens and Wallis, the firm's public relations counsel. Last year it produced 728,000 100-pound bags of sugar, and this year will produce between 900,000 and 1,000,000 due to a larger beet acreage and better crop, he said. With 18,250 acres in the area now growing beets, the factory this year will have a payroll of $300,000. In addition, benefits from the new industry will be reflected in the Medford area through the new beet seed industry. Where formerly Germany was depended on chiefly for it, the Oregon seed will go for farms in Idaho, Utah and California, as well as eastern Oregon, Evans said. Mayor Furnas' proclamation follows: "It is well recognized that the future industrial growth of Oregon is dependent upon the encouragement of all phases of agriculture throughout the state. "Likewise, this industrial subject to chanee MBS S IS. 8: CES 4:55. Friday: Europe, 6:30: WJZ-NBC 8: NBC 8. i change NBC 4 a. m , 9:45 WABC-CBS 8:15.

"Further recognizing the fact that idle prairie lands under the Vale-Owyhee project have become productive and the growing of sugar beets In this area is now a successful and profitable farm endeavor. "Therefore, the citizens of Medford extend hearty best wishes to the growers of sugar beets in this new important agricultural area and commend the Amalgamated Sugar com pany for this company's fore sight and enterprise in estab lishing one of America's most modern sugar factories at Nys sa. This two-and-one-half mil lion dollar plant, manufactur ing Oregon's own "White Satin Sugar" will contribute substan tially to the wealth of this state, thus: "I hereby proclaim for Med ford a two-week period from August 2 to August 17 as "Ore gon Sugar Time" arid urge the citizens of this community to join with Governor Sprague and other communities of this state in acknowledging the part which the new sugar industry is playing in the progress and prosperity of Oregon. "CHARLES C. FURNAS, "Mayor of Medford." Cupid Fails to Capitalize On Conscription Expectancy By United Press. The possible Imminence of military conscription has failed to stampede the American male into marriage as it did in the spring of 1917, a United Press survey indicated today. Marriage license bureaus throughout the nation reported few gains in applications either since January 1 or since con gress began considering a con scription bill which would re quire millions of eligible bach elors between 21 and 31 to re port for military training for one year. Married men would be exempt. The volume of licenses issued during June this year was the greatest of any month this year in at least 42 states, but li cense clerks thought that was only- because it was June. In some states it was attributed to a desire to avoid newly imposed physical examination require ments for applications struck Robert on the head. Both boys tumbled 40 feet to the bottom of the cliff. It could not be determined definitely but authorities thought that the rock inflicted the fatal injury. Condition of the Hilkey boy was reported much improved today. He is under treatment at the Osteopathic hospital. He suffered multiple lacerations. contusions and abrasions and shock. He is the son of Mr. and Mrs. Oliver Hilkey, Butte Falls. Funeral services for the Schnurr youth will be held at 1:30 p. m. tomorrow in the Perl chapel. Burial will take place in the Butte Falls cemetery. Ko- Registrar James A. Burke of bert .was the son of Mrs. Edward Boston said 115 licenses were issued at his office on July 29 to set a new day's record. It was 13 more than were issued in April, 1917. He said 99 of the men were of draft age and raid a few made inquiries about "time allowances" to avoid con scription. New Orleans reported an in crease of 85 licenses during July or since conscription has been debated in congress but bureau officials said the gain was not abnormal. Other minor gains this month were noted at San Francisco, in several Iowa counties and Milwaukee, Wis. Cook of Butte Falls. SKULL FRACTURE CAUSED DEATH OF BUTTE FALLS BOY Robert E. Schnurr, the 18-year-old Butte Falls boy fatally injured in a cliff accident in the remote Blue canyon region Tuesday afternoon, died of a basal skull fracture, the cor oner's office stated today after a post mortem examination had been made. With his brother, Roy, and Leonard Hilkey, 16, also of, Butte Falls, the Schnurr youth was climbing a cliff when thei accident occurred. A large rock, which gave way under Leon-i ard's weight, crashed down and I H. W. WHILLOCK TO HIGH NAVAL RANK Word has been received here of the appointment of H. W.
