PAGE EIGHT MEDFORD MAIL TRIBUNE. MEDFORD, OREGON, TUESDAY, MARCH 10, 1942. DAGILHTOPIC Episcopal Bishop Speaker Kiwanis Meet 'We Must Be Strong,' Is Advice. The Right Rev. Benjamin D. Dagwell of Portland, Episcopal bishop of Oregon, delivered an Inspiring address on "Civilian Problems In the Present War" to the weekly luncheon-meeting of Kiwanis in the Hotel Medford Monday noon. "We are fighting the battle of the centuries," the bishop declared, "and the first way in which we at home can help our boys now in the conflict is by keeping our heads and keeping our mouths shut." Speaking of the army canton ment being constructed near Medford, and of the problems it will bring, the bishop said. "The lives of many Medford people will undoubtedly be In convenienced, yet in spite of all the sacrifices you may have to make they are insignificant com pared to the great losses suffered by other peoples In this war." Must Be Strong The morale of the home peo ple must be strengthened, Bish op Dagwell emphasized. "We need to be strong, not soft, and like our armed forces we must be brave and refuse to be crushed by defeats. Instead, they must make us hard and tough." The bishop said: "We are amateurs in this military game. We are a peace-loving people and have engaged in peace movements for many years. Also, we have Indulged in a great deal of wishful thinking, and now we are impatient be cause we can't immediately thwart all aggression. "But," he said, "we can't ex pect in few days or months to make up for our attitude of the past." He expressed the ut most confidence In General Mar shall and Admiral Stark, and in the United Nations' ultimate victory. Church Role Told The bishop spoke briefly on the important part the churches were playing in building up the morale of over 1.000.000 sold iers stationed in the country's cantonments, and said it was the plan of the Medford Epla- copai cnurcn to provide a place for local cantonment soldiers to obtain companionship and the "home touch." The bishop was introduced by x.. i nomas, u. E. rrancis, president of the club, presided, FIX WATER RATE WITH METERS AT J1.75JINIMUM (Ooctlnusd mm Pare cm) ment." at was etat.H . i. meeting recently that revenue from the army camp would run " ou,uuu to 970,000 a year). The board cleared im mi- conception in the minds of some persons when it stated definitely that no chars wmtiri to the individual customer for unier installation. "The history of metering shows that the first month's bill on a meter is abnormally large ircvauw uie consumer does not realize to what .vi.nt UMiH.t.. inconsequential leaks really mount to in gallonage in momn," the board said, "Un fortunately, also, in Medford's case ine meters cannot be in- siaiica Dcfore June at which time water usage becomes large. The commission hopes that cus tomers will not wait until then to begin conservinu u.i.. mM eliminating waste and that they win ucar in mind that bills in the first few months, because of large summer consumption of water, are certain to be the largest of the year but will be offset during the remainder of the year so that average bills are calculated to be lower than at present tor at least 50 per cent of the consumers."

This charge will still be collected by the water department but will be entirely divorced from the water rates. "The water commission be lieves that the meter rate is vir tually reduction in water charges and wishes to point out that this will be the third such reduction since 1935," the board's statement said. "On August 1, 1935, the water rate was reduced 8 per cent to per mit the sewage disposal charge and on January 1, 1940, a re duction of approximately 25 per cent was made on the minimum charge for commercial meter ac counts." Comparison of rate, the board said, shows that in Grants Pass consumers would pay (2.95 a month for 17,500 gallons of water while in Eugene they would pay $2.22 as compared with the Medford rate of S1.75.
