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.

Who pays the wages?
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.
