To be called "Westwood," the newest Antony-Mclntyre project to be handled in conjunction with the sales force of Rogue Valley Land company, will rise on a 2 fi acre tract purchased from E. H. Niedermeyer Just across Ross lane from the West Side school. It is in the midst of an old and stately residential area in the foot foothills at the southern edge of the Rogue valley, and the builders say they will con form to the pattern of leisurely Good Weather Is Employment Spur Good weather conditions spur red the seasonal increase in em ployment in Jackson county dur ing May, according to the latest report of John J. Patton, man ager of the Medford office of the state employment service. He said there were a few shortages in some skilled and semi-skilled occupations with particular needs felt for saw yers, edgermen and trlmmcrmen as the sawmills increased pro duction. In spite of steady migration into the area, the number of un employed decreased. Patlon said. At the end of the month, unemployment in the county was estimated at 975, including 200 women and 250 veterans. That was 30 per cent le5s than one month ago and 15 per cent les?t han at the end of May. 1949. Claims Down The number of unemployment compensation claims is down here to 12 per cent of last win ter s nigh point, and Patton re ported that one-third of the pres ent claims are being filed against otner states for former residents. The local office expects no labor shortage in agriculture this season, but the high level of construction activity started dur ing May possibly will create a shortage of building tradesmen later in the year, it is believed. No such shortage has occurred yet, however. Job placements made through the local office were about 50 per cent greater In May than In April, according to Patton.

Setbacks, type and size of buildings, and the total number of homes for the full tract are all restricted to assure what Claude and Robert Mcln- tyre and Paul Antony call "pro tection against any and all value- destroying influences. The tract has been subdivided into four bloc!" each with six homesites measuring 195 by 200 feet. The first well Tn Westwood has been drilled and the build' ers say they are assured an abundance of water. Two Firms The building and sales com bine here consists of Robert Mc Intyre and his father, Claude Mclntvre. as Rogue Valley Land company, and Robert Mclntyre and Paul Antony as Antony-Mc-Intyre builders. It is the same business arrangement responst ble for the Lakewood Village homes on McAnrirews road, built according to individual specifica tions and also restricted. Antony and the Mclntyres say the need and demand for higher cost homes like the Westwood tvDe is becoming more and more evident, occasioned by local de sires and the growing influx of retired families into me valley seeking quiet living away from large population centers. They point out that they are interested in the entire development of the area and are determined to make Westwood an asset to the already select nature of west side resi dences.
