SAFETY EFFORTS TO BE STRESSED Citing the death of a Medford woman last evening as a grim example of loss of life which need never have happened, George Davis, county chairman of the accident prevention com mittee of the Red Cross, stated today that January had been designated as "accident preven tion month." Davis, ambulance driver for the Perl Funeral Home, said Mrs. Stella Willis tolu him shortly before she died of frightful burns last evening that nhe had poured kerosene Into the kitchen stove, an act which the prevention commit tee warns against repeatedly. Davis states that 18 instruc tors are now ready to instruct accident prevention classes and that these will be organized all during January, both in schools and through other channels. Additional instructors will be added to the group later, the chairman said. Specific information about the classes will be released from time to time, Davis said. r Closed Monday We Will be Closed Monday, Dec. J I st fcfl for Inventory ftl Monarch Seed & Feed Co.

Rivcrjide Phone 2882 i-HI'l m mi PACKAGE WAITS Still working on the problem of undeliverable Christmas packages, Postmaster Frank De- Souza again turned to the Tri bune today in an effort to find the correct addressee or senders of a parcel evidently mailed in Medford. The package, from which the address was com pletely torn, contains Christmas gifts from "Herb and Sue, Den- nie and Terry" to "Pop and Mom." DcSouza said. The postmaster said that about 40 persons who failed to receive packages which they expected have called at the post office during the past two days in an effort to identify unde liverable mail. Yesterday he delivered a pound of butter to the correct owner after the ad dressee learned of the package through a Mail Tribune story. Red Tape Tangles Surplus Property Offered Veterans Washington, Dec. 28 (U.R)- Rep. Jack Z. Anderson, R., Calif., said today that "the so called veterans' preference for surplus government property is a snare and a delusion." "A lot of previously able bodied former servicemen will soon join the ranks of the am putees," he said in a statement, "having run their feet off in a hopeless search for non-existent surpluses." Anderson said that only $1, 500,000,000 of an estimated to tal of $100,000,000,000 worth of surplus property has been actu ally sold so far. He asked: "Where in heaven's name is the rest of it?' He released a letter from a California constituent who said that the disposal of surplus farm goods in California consti tutes "the damndest tangle of red tape and inefficiency I have ever seen." E. E. Lind to Head J'Ville Chamber Jacksonville, Dec. 28 H. E. Lind will head the chamber of commerce here as president for the six months period ending June 30, 1946.
