CASE
off the
GAMBLER
Heavy gambling debts faced Jack Doe. He decided
to mortgage his home. Not wanting his wife to know
about his gambling, he persuaded another woman to
sign the mortgage as his wife.
Later, Mrs. Doe learned of the mortgage and proved
the forgery. The lender, in this case, had had the
title to the mortgaged property insured. The title
insurance company took an assignment of the mortgage
and worked out a settlement with Jack Doe and his
wife. Without title insurance, the lender would have
suffered a serious financial loss.

Along Entire Coast
'Soon As Possible'
San Francisco, Feb. 22 (U.R)
Two air force generals said to
day an air raid warning and air
craft spotting system will go in
to effect "as soon as possible"
for the entire Pacific Coast area.
Maj. Gen. Hugo P. Rush, com

fense force, and his deputy, Gen.
William M. Morgan, said the
states had been asked to recruit
volunteers for the systems.
Volunteers Needed
Rush said that 20,000-25,000
volunteers would be needed to
man California stations alone.
He emphasized that an air de
fense system is "already in be
ing" and is becoming "more
active day by day."
Plans already underway call
for establishment of two separ
ate systems, one is an aircraft
spotting and identification sys
tem and the other a civil air
raid warning service.
The command has asked a
budget of $180,000 for the oper
ation of the program.
To Establish Stations
Spotting stations will be estab
lished about eight miles apart

$6 MiSiion Collected
In Taxes By Oregon
along the length of the coast, the
officers said. These stations will
feed their reports to seven filter
stations.
Filter stations will be located
in Portland, Spokane, Seattle,
two in Oakland, Cal., and two
in southern California. Their job
will be to coordinate reports
from the spotters and pass the
information to the air force.
For the air raid warning sys
tem, key point centers will be
established, Rush said, to which
air defense command centers
will pass any information indi
cating an air attack.
Up To State Heads
It will be up to state authori
ties. Rush continued, to handle
further dissemination of the
alert from the key centers to
other points.
The air raid warning centers.
It is expected, will be manned
"24 hours a day, seven days a
week indefinitely."
Would be Sneak Attack
The spotting system will be
placed on a standby basis after
its organization has been com
pleted, personnel trained, and
practice exercises held.
In emphasizing the importance
of the projected system, Morgan
said "If we have another war it
will be a sneak attack. If the
system is inoperative as much as
a half hour, we do not have a
defense system."
Rush said the observers would
act as a supplement to a radar
warning net already partially
completed.
Rush revealed that planes of
his command have already
flown armed missions, but said
the situation "changes from time
to time."

Seed Allotments
01 Talent Alfalfa
Slated Thursday
The apportioning committee of
the Talent alfalfa growers in the
county will meet in the county
agent's office Thursday to make
allotments of the tag end of
4,220 pounds of the rare seed to
local ranchers. It is expected
that this may be the last year
controlled allotments will have
to be made, since the harvest of
the next season's crop of seed
should be sufficient to make
quantities available for any
grower who wants it.
Last year 3,435 pounds of cer
tified seed were distributed to
27 growers here. Developed at
the Southern Oregon branch ex
periment station to meet local
conditions, the first minute quan
titles of seed were carefully ra
tioned to qualified farmers in
1948. Succeeding season's har
vests have made increasing
amounts available and have also
helped to establish the remark
able superiority of the new
strain over most other varitles.
Small Amounts Tried
County Agent W. B. Tucker
says small quantities, for trial
only, have been sent to county
agents and experiment stations
in every major alfalfa produc
ing district in the country and
that the fame of Talent is be
coming more and more wide
spread. He forecasts a great ex
pansion in the growth of Talent
alfalfa in southern Oregon for
commercial seed purposes.
Production of certified Tal
ent seed has been reserved ex
clusively for local private grow
ers. Certain commercial seed
firms are reported to have of
fered S3 a pound for existing
seed stocks so that it could be
produced and marketed under a
brand name. The offer was de
clined and the seed apportioned
equitably to ranchers with the
ability to produce maximum
