CLOSES SEPT. 30
Termination of the national
hosiery collection program has
been announced by the salvage
branch of the war production
board. The campaign, carried on
for the past several months to
collect old nylon and silk hosi
ery, will close Sept. 30.
Though collections continue to
be remarkably high, salvage
headquarters advise that the ac
tion is being taken because the
proportion of silk and nylon be
ing returned is on a declining
scale, due largely to the fact
that little or no hosiery of this
type is being manufactured.
, Mrs. W. Alex Kuehlthau, salv
age chairman, urges women hav
ing any old silk or nylon hosiery
to turn it in at any of the Med
ford department stores within
the next few days. These stores
have been serving as collection
depots.
Roderick Finney, executive
secretary of the Oregon salvage
committee, states that resoonse
by the public in this salvage
drive resulted in the amazing
total of 2,300,307 pounds of silk
and nylon hosiery being collect
ed. Closing time for Sunday Too Lata

VOTERS LEAGUE
TO AID FORMING
FOREIGN POLICY
Decision to assist in a nation
wide program being mapped by
the National League of Women
Voters to promote education
along the lines of foreign policy
and international co-operation
was made by the board of the
Jackson County League at a
meeting Saturday afternoon.
The local campaign will start
about the middle of October.
"The purpose of the national
campaign," states a national
league officer, "is to organize
an army of 50,000 recruits to
talk to people, to make them
aware that there Is no way out
of wars, no hope of establishing
peace and well being here In
our country except by the es
tablishment of a sound foreign
policy and to help them realize
that such a policy can be estab
lished only when there is a
great public demand for it.
Wise Choice Needed
"People must be educated to
see the need of world coopera
tion and to make a wise choice
when the time for decision
comes. We must not forget that
the United States Is an empire
with wide possessions, that the
United States has always had
alliances, and that the country is
not economically self-sufficient
To carry on the campaign the
county league will be divided in
to groups, made up of both
members and non-members, and
these women will be instructed
and will each pass on this infor
mation in ber daily contacts
with friends and neighbors.
Fifteen women attended the
meeting Saturday which was
held at the home of-the presi
dent, Mrs. Leonard Carpenter,
Veritas Orchards.
