PAGE SIX MEDFORD MAIL TRIBUNE. MEDFORD. OREGON, FRIDAY, APRIL 17, 1942. - . PASS STRIVES E TO CANTONMENT Merchants Ask Council To ; Help Subsidized Service ' Held Well Worth Cost. Following on the heeit of the withdrawal by the Rogue Valley Transit company of its bus serv ice between Grants Pass and Camp White because of lack of ! patronage. Grants Pass mer chants have requested the coun cil to approve the establishment of a bus service to the canton ment, with a 40 cent round-trip fare, in order that Grants Pass can ask for designation as a defense area. Ted Paulus and Don Mc Gregor, representing the mer- chants, told the council Wednes day night at Grants Pass busi ness men had been seriously affected by government prior ities and that unless the city could be Included in the defense area "the shelves In the stores will look like Mother Hubbard's ' cupboard." Worth Subsidising It was explained that even If . the bus service didn't pay It would be worth while for mer ' chants of Grants Pass to sub 'aldtze it, and that the present : plan was to finance the opera- ton by popular subscription and purchase a school bus or similar 'vehicle to be run on a coopera tive basis. i .The council took no definite action on the matter but encour aged the move by the merchants and asked to be ktpt Informed of developments. A government requirement before a town can be designated as a defense housing area Is .that It must have round-trip bus service to the nearby cantonment at rate not to exceed 40 cents. The Rogue Valley Transit com , pany's Grants Pass-Camp White service did not meet this re quirement Ashland, now being served by ithe Rogue Valley Transit com pany between there and Camp White, Is stiU seeking a reduc tion In the round-trip fare from 65 to 40 cents in order that a defense housing area designation 'tnay be forthcoming.
