FAIRS EXPECTED TO BE RESUMED A county fair in Jackson county was a possibility today when it was announced that the army was about to evacuate the fairgrounds at the south edge of the city limits. The county has not had a major fair since 1932, according to R. G. Fowler, county agent and executive chairman of the fair board. At that time the Civilian Conserva tion Corps took over the fair grounds, after which the army set up installations. There is considerable work which must be done on the build ings before they will be in con dition for another fair, Fowler said. All plans for repairing of the buildings have been com pleted and are in the hands of army engineers in Portland, who will direct the work, according to Fowler. Streets Improved Streets and bridges of the grounds have been greatly im proved under army occupation, the chairman stated. The half mile track needs some repairing and surfacing, he added. Para-mutual betting on horse racing also has entered into the picture , according to Fowler. Since the last fair was held here, the state has legalized para mutual betting which has been adopted by most county fairs in the state, he said. Whether or not this will be done here re mains upon a decision of the county court and the fair board. The county court is expected to name a new fair board in about two weeks, after which more detailed plans for resump tion of the fairs will be discussed. t iiM.iii:.k'jiit;ui.rai:Jf.g m MMl I 111 I !!

Men and women who work for wages get their pay checks from the company. Where does the company get its money? Obviously, from the sale of its products. In other words, from other men and women who buy what workers make. Most of what the customer pays goes for wages, directly and indirectly. uorkers ask too much for their services, the prices of the products they make get too high. Fewer customers are able to buy. he result is fewer sales and fewer jobs. For the sake of employes, just as much as for the sake of investors, management must keep in mind the fact that the customer pays the wages. Thus, in the long run sales and jobs grow from a proper balance between wages and prices.
