MEDFORD MAIL TRIBUNE. MEDFORD. OREGON, FRIDAY, APRIL 24, 1942. PAGE NINE I News Behind The News By Paul MalloD (OooUoiMd Prom tmf On) te., on through the farm com modity list. The political advantages of all this primary part of the plan, from the administration standpoint, lie in the fact that it Is not proposed actually to freeze wages or farm prices themselves, but to get at them Indirectly. There are other political as pects. In the discussion stage is an idea of confiscating all big wages above k certain amount, say 123.000 or $50,000. It would not bring in much revenue, but it would be popular with the labor and farm groups. Another feature of the plan would confiscate all profits above 6 percent beyond all exist- OIlFittilonidRnlnl Ctart t- fun 0nam 04 Hymm Iftfl feet PrMchlnv KMED 8:00 ft. m.

Another thing: It seems now that when Price Fixer Leon Henderson and Vice President Wallace surrendered to Treas ury Secretary Marcentt- thor was an understanding that the voluntary metnoa of raising money for the war would be continued beyond a few months only If it works, that is, only for a trial period. Henderson and Wallace ap parently were content to wait. Morgenthau intends to fool them by making it work. WILLKIE ran away with the publicity honors of the com promise adopted by the Repub lican national committee at Chi cago, but the opposition claimed a majority of the committee. The senate cloakroom is com forting itself with the informa tion that Mr. Willkie had only 15 committeemen at an advance meeting in New York. He had more than that bare one-sixth of the 86 committeemen at Chi cago, but the Washington boys think Taft would have won on a showdown by about S3 to 33. Where Willkie stole the show was not In the voting, but in the advance planning. He pulled no surprise on the senators. Return Showing A ? Gene Tierney.

But it was just not ( od pa triotism, politics or sense from either his standpoint or theirs to start a row, as Willkie well knew. Thus he had his oppo nents in a position where they were willing to give more than he did in a resolution pledging only post-war leadership of the world for the purposes of liberty and opposition to warfare. In this conflict, both Willkie and Taft were running like lead horses for 1944, and this was the most important asrject of the matter. The resolution was written for the purpose of the coming congressional elections in which each Individual candidate will run on his own platform any way. The 1944 presidential nominating convention will de termine the policy of that race. And where was Mr. Dewey in the conflict nowhere in siaht. He has not shown up yet, but certainly will when he runs for governor of New York state next fall.

Our country now needs train ed men more than ever before in her history. Whether we face defeat or victory depends upon those whom we delegate to rep resent us. We have a war to win. We must unitedly put forth every atom of our ability to aid with our every resource and with our lives, if need be, to attain that end. Hoping to be able to help in all matters for the preservation of our country. I am, GEO. W. DUNN. School Crossings To the editor: This is my first attempt at writing to a local newspaper but there is some thing apparently lacking in Medford which is, or should be, of major concern to parents of younger children attending grade schools. For the first time in many years I find myself living in a small city which has absolutely no protection whatever for school children who find it necessary to cross heavily trav eled streets on their way to and from school, other than a sign reading "school crossing" and a couple of whit stripes painted on the pavement. I question whether one could drive, from Vancouver, B. C, to Los An geles without finding adequate protection for the school kids in the majority of towns and cities, either in the form of local police, school-boy patrols or state patrols, during to and from school periods. I have noted many times that even our smal ler neighboring city of Ashland has school-boy patrols. Many mornii.gs while driving my seven-year-old to school I have noticed school kids dart ing in and out of traffic in order to get across Crater Lake avenue-en route to Roosevelt school and although Medford has to my knowledge a remarkable record on this accident question how long will it continue with traffic conditions as they now are? Would it be impossible for the local police to take time off dur ing these to and from scnool periods and patrol these school crossings? We rave about over-time parking, we rave about traffic congestion in the business dis trict, and about one-way traffic. Why not a little raving about school kids safety? Do you think this is a worh-while issue? Or is it? R. D. McMASTER 818 Bennett street.

I want to thank the people for the courteous tolerance and helpful support tendered me during all the time I have tried ot serve. Time is inexorable in its allot ment of vim and vigor to mere men; and it always limits the activities of the individual in this mundane vale of "blood, sweat and tears" to a reasonable term. Having long since passed the Biblical allotment of three score and ten years, I felt it not only prudent for me but an obli gation to leave the work incum bent upon the office of state senator to a younger and abler person. It has been my good fortune to have served with earnest, competent and able representa tives from this district We have had but one purpose in view and that purpose was to serve to the best of our ability.
