MAIL TRIBUNE Registration Despite earlier lack candidates, it now appears that Uregon s primary campaign will generate considerable heat before the ballot marking, come May the growth in interest is found in the comprehensive efforts being made by both parties and other groups to boost registration. p 0VERN0R McKAY has designated March 27 to April 1 as Registration Week, and is urging upon all people of the state to see to it that their vot ing right is protected. I JNI0N LABOR interests have launched what the Oregon Teamster, official mouthpiece of Joint Council No. 37 of Oregon Teamsters, describes as "the biggest registration drive in Oregon's history a campaign to register virtually every eligible voter in the state. "Non-partisan registration leagues have been formed on county and state-wide levels with organ ized labor groups, AFL, CIO and independent.unions supporting and in most cases, spearheading the cam paigns," says the union paper. Labor, it is stated, is particularly interested in getting out full voting strength for action on the re apportionment issue which it is hoped to place on the November ballot, through i N JACKSON COUNTY in the May primary, especially since both parties have full tickets with at least two hot contests prom ised on the Republican side. Voters have until April 18 to register. fc.ur. Wings for Mercy Mercy Flights, Inc.. of Jackson county, sent its large white airplane to the North Bend airport Wed nesday afternoon to pick up a patient who needed fast transportation and who was unable to sit up and trav el by conventional means. THE PILOTS, Medford fliers who donate their time when flying this airplane, explained that Mercy Flights is a no-profit, volunteer organization and that the plane was purchased by contributions from Jack son county school children, service clubs and other interested people. The plane cost $3100. It is to be used for emer gency missions only and must not compete with com mercial services. The operating cost, actual gasoline and oil, is figured at $12 per hour. If a patient cannot pay this sum, he rides free. For the trip outside Jack son county a charge of $35 per hour is made, all paid to the owner organization. Even mechanics who work on the plane donate their time, and free storage is m-ovided at the Medford airoort. The plane has a stretcher and seat for an attend ant in addition to room for the pilots. ess fOOS AND CURRY counties are even more isolat ed than Jackson county, and could well use a service such as this.

S. C. Extension Service Wet Weather Good For Planting Shrubbery This wet weather isn't help ing our gardens any for getting early crops, but it is very good weather for setting out shrubs Many of our recently built homes are not landscaped at all, and there is room for improvement in landscaping many of our old er homes. Much of this lack) of yard beautification Is due to lack of confidence on the part of the home owner that he knows just how to proceed. We are starting a landscap ing project next week which we hope will be helpful to home owners in helping them decide how to lay out their yards and use shrubs to best advantage. This project will consist of the actual landscaping of five homes in different sections of the coun ty. At the lime these grounds are landscaped, a public meeting will be held and everyone Inter ested is invited to come. Of course, the people whose places we landscape will benefit the most, but by doing it this way we felt that the rest of you would not only have the benefit of a short discussion on princi pals of landscaping, but you could watch the work being done. Another advantage is that after you have Jeft the meeting, If you want to check up on just what was done, you can always drive back by the home and take another look at the landscaping lay out. In order to give you the best help possible, we have arranged with the college to have pro fessor I, B. Solberg come down and landscape these yards. Mr. Solberg was a commercial land scape architect for years until re cently when he retired from business and took a teaching job at the college. There are two principal rea sons for holding these demonstra tions. One is to stimulate interest in the improvement of home landscaping, and the other is to make available reliable in formation as to how to proceed. If this program is a sucess, then in another year we may repeat it using different homes and dif ferent locations. It Is hoped that after a period of years a very material im provement in the annearanee of yards will take place. Well groomed yards add a lot to the satisfaction of living, and when we live In a place which has as i much natural beauty as the Rogue Valley, we should do our part to improve our own grounds. The five homes selected are the Ira Burns home which Is located on the Old Crater Lake highway about two miles out of Medford Just beyond the Brook- hurst Orchard. This Is one of the homes In the new subdivision out there and has very little landscaping done as yet. We will meet there next Tuesday at 1:30 p.m. On Wednesday at 1:30 p.m. we will meet at the H. A. Wil ham home which is four miles beyond Brownsboro by the old school house. On Thursday we move over to Gold Hill and will meet at 1:30 p.m. at the Fred Hasse plRce. The Hasses live on the Lower River road just across the Rogue River from Gold Hill. On Friday morning at 10 30 we will meet at the James Rasmus sen home in Valleyvlcw. Friday afternoon we will meet at a home in the Ashland area. This home has not been selected as et. Din we wiii nave an an- ; nouncement of it later. These homes have nil heen ' selected by a committee from that community and they should represent the homes In that nrea.

German Officials Making Joke Of American Purification Desires By Lyle C. WlUon United Press Correspondent Stuttgart, Germany, Mar. 20 (U.R) There is a political scan dal in this beautiful Swabian country where German officials are making a joke of American desires to purify and punish some of Hitler's old nazis. Responsible officials believe similar conditions exist in oth er areas. The situation is not good, and at first glance it looks very bad. But the showdown on issues now raised will not be had soon. Not Making Martyrs American authorities are more likely to take it easy for a bit rather than crack down sharply on balky German officials. They are not making martyrs of them. High policy seems to be to rier- mit German officialdom some leewa y on the denazification question here for the time being, in expectation that they will lose out badly In the end. Explanations why a drastic crackdown might do more harm than good are persuasive. But many Germans on the snot here do wish American authorities would move in hard and fast on the local German state govern ment. "Denazification has become a farce in Wuerttemberg-Baden," one German earnestly assured me. "This is a disagreeable pic ture of democracy, is it not?" another suggested. Wuerttemberg-Baden is one of the four states comprising the American zone of Germany. British, French and American occupation authorities on Sept. 21, 1949, relinquished much of their direct control of western Germany, German officials and the German people. That was under a new occupation statute designed to move western Ger many rapidly toward democratic self government. Aimed at Press Control Thereafter many German state officials here and elsewhere be gan feeling out the situation to see how far the Americans would let them go. Return of commun ications facilities to German ad ministration in the American zone shortly was followed by devious efforts apparently aimed ultimately at press control. This would have been achieved variously by license systems or by pooling communications fa cilities, so the government ac tually would be in a position to eliminate or fatally to delay news dispatches intended for cir culation to the German press. Here in Stuttgart, capital city of Wucrttemberg - Baden, state minister President Reinhold Maier decided to use his new political freedom and power "to get over the unpopular denazi fication as soon as possible." Denazification is the process by which occupation authori ties required Germany to deal with Hitler's old nazis. German courts considered in dividual cases, excused many thousand as mere "followers" of the nazi party and wholly exon erated others. For those deeply implicated In nazi policies and brutalities there were fines, re vocation of civil rights and seiz ure of properties, according to the degree of guilt. Ministry Dissolved Less than a fortnight after the new occupation statute be came effective. State President Maier dissolved the Wuerttemberg-Baden ministry of political liberation, which had been re sponsible to the state legislature for denizification. By Jan. 1. 1950. Maier and his deputy, Karl Strode, had signed ia.500 nazi pardons. It is charg ed now that all pardon signatures by Stroele were illegal because the law reposes that responsibil ity only in the state president. In mid-October the storm be gan to break, with complaints to Stroele that pardons or re ductions of penalties were for sale by other government offi cials. An outraged former nazi Who had been unnhle tn hnv his way out of trouble in that i way finally appealed to Amer ican authorities. His name was Ernest Stockinger. Maj. Gen. Charles P. Gross is the senior American official in Wucrttemberg - Baden. Gross movcd fast vigorously with to the state police to investigate MocKinger s charges, Th r.irmn .,i -..- .v,- The German press and even the public became aroused as evi dence piled up of wholesale cor ruption. But Maier would not act. Instead, he abused Grow in a , public statement. i uaiKHiK mi-. American with unwarranted in tcrference In German affairs. Investigating Natis He said he was investigating a family group of nazis who had banded together to destroy dem- Maier rejected all suggestions that his deputy, Stroele. he su.v pended pending investigation, or otherwise dealt with. The Americans pressed for more action. Prosecutor General Richard Schmid issued an order forbidding Hoffmeister to give any more information either to GIVE NOW! PENNEY'S the press or to American officials in Stuttgart. But he had turned up so much already that indictments could not be avoided. In a single haul Hoffmeister obtained 500 docu ments involving bribery of the personnel of German denazifica tion courts. Prices paid for soft treatment varied up to a bit more than $4,000. There is no suggestion that Stroele took money. But he evi dently was a key man In the deal-softly-with-the-nazis policy of his superior, Maier. While the Americans kept the pressure on, the investigation was going high, wide and hand some in Wuerttemberg-Baden. But Maier took a chance, dur ing the recent absence of high Commissioner John J. McCloy in the United States, and or dered the investigation ended. Three Germans have been In dicted and another shortly will be. But the indicted men were released from jail this week. The inquiry has come to a dead stop. State Police Eager The state police are eager to proceed. Maier's decision to end the investigation before it was half finished may have been made because Chief Hoffmeister was beginning to fire away at Maier. The little policeman proposed that the immunity from investi gation enjoyed by Maier and two others as members of the state legislature be waived or lifted so he can ask some questions. The request was ignored. Hoffmeister wanted to ask Maier, among other things, about alleged irregularities in In the Day's By FRANK JENKINS Back in Ohio, the other day. a woman sent a $15 check to the county treasurer along with a letter explaining that years ago she had gypped the county out of that much and now wants to ease her conscience. When he took the check to the bank, the treasurer was in formed there wasn't sufficient money in the lady's account to cover it. ? ? ? T t I wouldn't know. About the only explanation I can think of is that a lot of us have that kind of consciences. THIS-screwball-world note: At Corcoran, down the line in California, the other day, an unemployed farm laborer looked over his cupboard and found it as bare as Mother Hubbard's. So he took his trusty shotgun, went out in the weeds and popped off a cottontail rabbit, brought it home, cooked it and fed it to his hungry wife and child. He was haled Into court and sentenced to 50 days in jail for shooting a rabbit out of season. He pleaded guilty, but explained that he did it to get food for his family. Whereupon the judge re leased him from jail, but made it plain that he'll have to pay a fine of $2 for each day of his sentence, or a total of ?100. ? ? ? ? ? I suppose such things just hap pen. IN OUR states, we haven't been doing too well in the way of enforcement of anti-gambling laws. So. a while back, a meet ing of good citizens was held in Washington under the sponsor ship of the attorney-general of the United State and an outfit called the Conference of Law En forcement was organized. Its object is to put crimp in gambling syndicates operating coast-to-coast and to accomplish this the law-enforcement agen cies of the federal government would be called in. It sounds ! like a good idea. These big-time j gamblers skip across state lines i and in doing so twiddle their I fingers at state law-enforcement j people.

Germans here say that all Germany will be watching to see whether McCloy will compel Maier's government to reopen the inquiry. McCloy li back here now. But it Is not so simple as that. McCloy must avoid any pressure on the Germans which could be twisted by thb alert German communists into propaganda against the western powers. At the same time he does not want the Germans to get the idea that they can ignore lawlessness merely because they do not like the law against which it is com mitted. Not Regarded as Closed McCloy's spokesman told the United Press today that the high commissioner certainly is not going to reard the case as closed and that he had not been aware that the investigations had been ended. Gen.' Gross evidently would like to see the investigation pressed. "Give me a couple more scan dals like this one and the people and press will be sufficiently awakened so that we will have some real democracy her e," Gross told me. But he knows, too, that Maier'i attack on him found wide pope) ular support and that the state firesident will make political cap tal and a lot of votes out of it in next November election. The state police and other in terested Germans frankly say they are disappointed because American officials have failed to compel a full inquiry. News The government people aren't bothered by state lines. THEN somebody got scared. How about the Saturday night poker game at Joe's house? Will the federals clamp down on it like the judge down at Cor coran clamped down on poor Joe Doakes who went out and shot a rabbit to make some rabbit stew to feed his hungry wife and child? Again I wouldn't know. This is getting to be a compli cated world, and the problem of law enforcement becomes more intricate and difficult as the days pass.
