Following the suggestions made by H. C. Kaltenborn to a nation-wide audience Sunday, the Medford Kiwanis club at its Monday noon luncheon meet ing drafted a telegram for each of Oregon's five legislators in Washington, D. C, asking that they sponsor immediate legisla- lation designed to place the country on an all-out war foot ing. The telegrams were dispatch ed to Washington yesterday af ternoon, and the Kiwanis club plans to seek the cooperation of other local service clubs and or ganizations in flooding the na tional capital with similar mes sages. Sent to Senators Charles L. McNary and Rufus C. Holman, and Representatives James W. Mott, Walter M. Pierce and Ho mer D. Angell, the telegrams read as follows: "As our representative In con gress, we ask that you sponsor immediate legislation for dura tion of the war. "First, to control prices of all commodities, including farm products, in order to eliminate further inflation. "Second, to control compen sation of all classes of workers, suspend payments for all over time and permit unlimited hours of work. "Third, to make strikes in all industries unlawful. "Fourth, to limit all industry to fair return on investment. "Fifth, to eliminate all non- war essential governmental ac tivities, bureaus and agencies. "Sixth, to disregard all pres sure groups and sponsor only legislation designed to win the war. "We are not apathetic to the seriousness of the war. This is the wish of 100 per cent of the members of the Medford Ki wanis club." Support of the Rotary club in the campaign was enlisted at its noon luncheon-meeting to day. Rotarian Leonard B. May field read a copy of the tele gram, and after meeting with instant approval the matter was referred to a meeting of the di rectors tonight. Otto J. Frohnmayer, spokes man for the Kiwanis club, ex plained that the plan tied in with legislation introduced in the house yesterday limiting profits of war contracts to a maximum of six per cent, and suspending federal statutes pre scribing maximum hours of work. The Kiwanis club, he said, is calling on all clubs, organiza tions and individuals in favor of such legislation as asked in the telegrams, to write or wire their congressmen immediately. Virtually all industrial dia monds are obtained as a by pro duct of mining for gem stones.

HOLDUPS FOILED BY NONCHALANCE OF STORE OWNER Two young men, attempting a hold-up at the Beverage Shop. 124 South Central, last night, were apparently foiled by the I nonchalance of the proprietor. Horace Turpin. According to Turpin's report, the two men came up to the counter as he started toward the back of his shop. One of them, dark complexioned, with revolver, said, "hold-up," as Turpin returned, "let's have It." Turpin went on about his work, saying, "Help yourself." The men then turned and left without bothering anything. The gun wielder vyas de scribed by Turpin as not over 21, dark and smooth shaven. He appeared to be about five feet, six inches tall and to weigh about 140 pounds. He had a southern drawl and was de scribed as good looking. His companion, approximate ly the same size, was blond and had a pock-marked face. He was wearing a blue sweater. Confirmation of Turpin') story came from Murray's Maid Kite, where, an employee said. men answering the descriptions tyad been shortly before the time they appeared at the Bev erage Shop.
