PAPER SOUGHT TO
FILL SECOND CAR
BY TUESDAY NIGHT
Robert Duff, salvage chair
man, said today enough waste
paper bad been collected to fill
a freight car which will leave
Medford Monday. Duff called at
tention to the fact the waste
paper drive does not end until
Tuesday night and urged Med
ford residents to contribute all
waste paper possible to fill the
second car. Paper which can yet
be collected in the city, together
with what collectors hope to get
In rural areas, is hoped to be
sufficient to fill the second car,
Duff said.
All city schools will receive
waste paper from 8 a. m. to 5
p. m. and Roosevelt school will
remain open in the evenings
from 7 to 9 to accept collections.
Duff said the salvage commit
tee will be unable to accept
paper after Tuesday because
they have no place in which to
store it. Those unable to get
their paper in by Tuesday are
asked to hold it for a future
drive.
Ashland is sending a separate
car, it was stated.
TRUCiURlER
UPSET AT TOLO
A truck carrying a load of
paper and pulling a flat bed
trailer on which were three
crated airplane motors turned
over Saturday afternoon on the
second turn above Tolo bridge,
according to state police.
The truck, operated by Charles
O. Urquhart, 37, Los Angeles,
was headed south when a front
brake on the trailer apparently
locked, pulling the truck and
trailer into a ditch. As Urquhart
was attempting to get on the
hgihway the trailer upset pulling
the truck over, the report said.
The trailer finally came to a stop
upside down in the middle of the
highway while the truck was
on its side, headed north, police
said,
William D. Cronln, 30, also
from Los Angeles, was alseep in
the sleeping compartment of the
truck at the time of the accident.
Neither man was injured, accord
ing to police report.

TO TELL VOTERS
OF PEACE PLANS
As a result cf the visit to
Medford last week of Mrs. Ralph
Rasmussen, president of the Ore
gon League of Women Voters,
plans have been laid by the local
league to inform interested per
sons on the proposals of the
Dumbarton Oaks conference for
a United Nations Organization,
officers stated yesterday.
League members are also In
formed that the state and na
tional leagues are asking sup
port for the Maloney-Monroney
house resolution No. 54, which
would set up a committee to
study reorganization of congress,
and that the leagues will again
oppose the equal rights amend
ment in the belief that economic
equality cannot be attained by
legislation. Mrs. Rasmussen and
local officers ask that league
members write their congress
man on these matters.
A discussion group on the
Dumbarton Oaks plan is being
formed and will have its first
meeting Thursday afternoon at 3
o'clock at the home of Mrs. O. A.
Eden, 211 Ccnessee street. The
group will have Mrs. Melvin
Hogan as leader and is open to
league members and others in
terested. "The entire league feels that
the Dumbarton Oaks proposal
gives the group a 'second chance'
to further the idea that there
must be some sore of interna
tional organization to help keep
peace," Mrs Justin Smith, local
president, stated today, "since
one of the first projects of the
group was promotion of this
self-same idea. The state depart
ment has now adopted officially
an idea for which the league has
worked for 23 years.
Mrs. Rasmussen outlined the
Dumbarton Oaks plan at a meet
ing here Tuesday and met with
the league board Wednesday
noon and afternoon to lay plans
for the informative campaign
here. Wednesday morning she
met with Mrs. Walter Inch, edu
cation chairman; Mrs. L. G. Ly
man, social welfare chairman;
Mrs. H. D. Byington, member
ship chairman; Mrs. Dolph
Phipps, organization head. .

you hunted around for a lit

you wanted to write some,
body a note, and there just
wasn't any paper to be

That would be an even more
awkward situation if what you
wanted to write was a message
for reinforcements to get the

you were and help hold off that

are just across the meadow,

Until you arrive in an active
zone, you've simply no idea how
many tons of paper are needed
to get to an army all-the stuff
it needs . . . and there are about
700,000 things our Army needs
right now, and will keep on
needing till they march into
Berlin and Tokyo. It's not just
the ammunition, it's everything
else a soldier wants at one time
or another, in battle or after.
K and C rations are paper
boxed, so is the new U ration

Africa, containing practically
everything you'd . find in any

of continuous line plunges at

were piles of paper cartons and
