The city council voted last night to Issue another block of $10,000 of the S80.000 issue of bonds authorized by the voters at a special election last Jan uary 17 to enlarge and improve the municipal airport and to par for incidentals thereto. Of the authorized total of SBO.oou, a block of $40,000 has already been issued, leaving, after the sale of the new block, $10,000 unissued. Reporting tor the airport com mittee, of which he is chairman, J. C. Collins said that it had been deemed advisable to ac quire and the city had acquired more lands than was originally intended to be procured from the proceeds of the first Instal ment of the bond issue sold and that. In order to expedite the airport work, it has been nec essary for the city to provide machinery and equipment and incur other expenses not con templated in connection with " the present project. In view of .this and the need to continue such additional expenditures, the committee recommended sale of the additional $10,000 block of the airport bonds. The council adopted a lengthy ordinance on milk control in order. It was explained, to bring the city's ordinance up to date with the model of the U. S. pub lic health service. It was explained by City At torney Frank P. Farrell that for the time being reference to bot tle caps had been omitted from the milk control ordinance be cause there was a present a con troversy on the subject between the state milk control board and distributors. (Pending is ruling by the board on the appeal of the Sni der Dairy & Produce company from the board's order that an additional cent a quart must be charged for the new "lip-seal" bottle cap Introduced a short time ago by the company.) Mr. Farrell said the council did not want to become Involved In the controversy. After the board has made Its ruling, he suUed, a provision on bottle caps would be Inserted in the ordinance In accordance with the ruling. The council also adopted an ordinance on food handling in anticipation of the establishment of the proposed army can tonment here. It was explained that present Inspection service would continue until the camp was authorized.

Martin told a gathering of local service clubs Tuesday. The distinguished re tired olftcer and former govern or of Oregon addressed the luncheon-meeting of the Rotary club at the Hotel Medford, the luncheon being also attended by members of other service groups. America will find important lessons in the advice of two great countrymen, George Wash ington and Abraham Lincoln, General Martin reminded his audience. Washington's solemn admonition that "to be prepared lor war is the best way to pre serve peace" should never be forgotten, he said. In this pre sent national emergency Lin coln s timely warning that a house divided agninst Itself can not stand" was also quoted by the speaker. "This is no time for political Dickering a democracy must discipline itself" General Martin emphasized In pleading for the support of the administration during the existing crisis. Pacificism, In vogi.e after the first World war, has been a con tributing factor in bringing about the present chaotic condi tion throughout the world, in General Martin's opinion. Treaties and pacts of post-war were chiefly reviewed, the speaker saying many of which lulled most of the world into an attitude of false security Rightly America walked out of the League of Nations after launching It because there was no adequate means of enforcing decisions, he declared. General Martin pointed out that no conference of nations can succeed whers "the voice of weakness is equal to the voice of strength." Mankind has not progressed to a state when this is possible, he added. History has shown thre Is no peaceful way to expand territory and add colonies, he stressed. "When nations become rich, soft and flabby, virile people move in," General Martin re minded his audience, adding that Rome, Egypt, Greece, Baby lon nations throughout history have proved this point. The current fall of France was cited as an immediate and glaring ex ample of this. The France of 1814 and the France of 1940 were compared by General Martin. During the first World war. 800.000 French men lost their lives in the glori ous defense of Verdun, he re called. Since that time France has grown soft political dis unity, tabor strife, class warfare and pressure groups seeking power have contributed to this startling change within a brief quarter-century, he asserted. General Martin shouted an emphatic warning of the dangets of these destructive ele ments in America. A so-called "war tpirit" must be created here If this country is to meet the crisis at hand effectively he counselled. Politics must ad journ, he said, and any man who preaches class hatred must be branded . an enemy of the nation. "Intelligence has not discov ered a substitute for war" Gen eral Martin told his listeners. "Because war is immoral,- the forces of right will eventually triumph." The widely-discussed matter of army morale was reviewed by the speaker. Men In the service must not be babied and pampered they must be made tough and hard to become fitted for the possible task of defend ing this nation, he said. In concluding his address, General Martin paid a high tri bute to General Marshall, head of America's fighting forces, and compared this military leader with Grant, Lee and Jackson. He voiced approval of Medford as the site for an army camp and recalled his experiences as commander of the great World war cantonment at Rockford, 111., in pointing cut the contri butions an army contingent here would make to the lite and pros perity of this area General Martin was intro duced by Dr. C.
