Patterned after policies now in force in Medford. Klamath! Falls and other southern Oregon cities, the plan would require all solicitors to secure the ap-j proval of a secret committee of, the Chamber of Commerce be fore launching their activities. Dean Pieper, chamber sccre. tary. was instructed to put the' plan into effect. Information on solicitors who make a practice of "working a circuit of cities! will be inter-changed with cham-j bers which have adopted the project. ! C. M. Litwiller. president of the chamber, lauded the move1 and urged co-operation on, the part of the merchants in assur ing its success. He added that if the businessmen get behind the action it will result in a no ticeable decrease in the number of solicitors and promoters who attempt to "high-pressure" busi ness men. The directors also recommend that G. M. Green, chairman o( the highway committee, consult with officials towards endorse ment of the Tiller-Trail road project. Funds for this highway, are provided through the for estry department, it was stated. It is expected that Green and; other chamber members will bcl present at the coming meeting . and will present the Ashland: stand at that time. TAKE FIMGERPRINTS OF ASHLAND ARTILLERYMEN GET MENTION IN U.P. PUBLICATION i . Ashland. Sept. 12. Spl .t Mass fingerprinting of the enlist-! ed personnel of Battery B-249th! Coast Artillery leaving this month for Fort Stevens. has: been completed in conjunction with the local police department. Captain H. B. Bcntley said to day. Prior to its induction into ied eral service, the enlisted person nel of the outfit was "printed" only for state records but the Army demands prints on its own forms and in accordance 'with its own regulations, Captain Bcntley said. Two former Medford news paper reporters who now are United Press bureau managers are singled out for comment in the news gathering association's current monthly bulletin. They are Richard C. Applegate, Salem bureau manager, and Arthur L. Schoeni, bureau manager at Olympia. Wash Describing United Press cov erage of Sen. Charles L. Mc Nary's acceptance speech at Sa lem, the bulletin says: "For speedy distribution, United Press operated a special leased wire from the fairgrounds to the San Francisco U P. bureau, kept the coverage of Salem Man ager Richard C. Applegate and Portland Manager J. F. Gale moving at top speed." The bulletin fc.so tells of the widespread newspaper use of coverage which Schoeni orga nized for reporting the maneu vers in the Puget Sound area by the regular army and the national guard. The bulletin says: "Biggest thrill for Schoeni was when two 'enemy' war planes mistook his observation plane for a foe and 'attacked.' Schoeni unlimbered his big prss camera and methodically shot 12 pictures of the 'attackers' power-diving on his plane. "Biggest disappointment came in the darkroom where he dis covered he'd forgotten to 11 the slide from the camera, h;..l 12 blank negatives." WILLI TO GIVE Military usee of flai er.

Willkie told report ers yesterday third term issue involved "not alone the contin uation of Franklin D. Roosevelt but of a group and a line of force that should be broken." Seated with Frank Gannett, Rochester (N.
