Registration Urged
M That Residents
Can Vote May 18
With the deadline for voter
registration only two week
away, the leaders of the two po
litical parties in Jackson county
joined today in urging all resi
dents who are not registered to
vote to do so immediately.
; Mrs. Bereth Hopkins, chair
man of the county Republican
central committee, and Mrs.
Mary G. Kelly, chairman of the
Democratic committee, each
pointed out that there are a num
ber of residents who would be
eligible to vote except that they
are not registered.
Deadline Nearing
; The primary election falls on
May 16 this year, and the dead
line for registration is April 15,
two weeks from today.
, Mrs. Kelly and Mrs. Hopkins
also suggested that it would be
helpful if employers would join
in encouraging voter registration
and would give their employees
time off to register, if necessary.
At the same time, William Mc
Allister, chairman of the Med
io rd Eisenhower for President
Committee, pointed out that
there are undoubtedly many
Eisenhower admirers who would
like to aid the general's candi
dacy by voting for him. . They
will have to be registered Repub
licans to do so, he said.
And Mrs. Kelly was equally
emphatic in pointing out that
both Sen. Estes Kefauver and
Gov. Adlai Stevenson will be on
the primary election Democratic
ballot.
Captains Named
Fire captains in the two Med
ford fire stations have been des
ignated as official voter regis
trars, it was reported by County
Clerk George Carter, and will be
able to accept registrations in the
evenings when other registrars
will be unavailable. Another
registrar, Col. Ben Stafford, will
have a downtown registration
desk at Barker's Men's store,
Carter said. - ,
Mrs. Hopnins, who has made
study of registration trends in
the county, estimated la3t week
that there are 8,000 or more po
tential voters in the county who
have failed to register as a mem
ber of either party.
She said that there are approx
imately 27,000 persons register
ed out of a population of about
57,000, leaving 30,000 unregis
tered. There are 16,500 youngs
ters between 4 and 19 listed in
the school census, about 1,000 be-

SPEEDING NOT NEW
Parkersburg, W. Va. (U.FD
A check of local stautes showed
that the problem of speeders
didn't start with the machine

$1 fine against ""anyone who
shall gallop any horse, mare or
gelding within the limits of the
corporation."

POLICE OBLIGE
Fort Worth, Tex. 0J.R The
longer a shivering 54-year-old
man talked, the more confused
he got about the robbery he was
trying to report to police. Fi
nally, he asked officers to let
him stay in jail until he could
"warm up" and get Jiis story
straight. Police acommodated
with the warmest cell in the
house, an da charge of drunkenness.

Secret Papers Found;
April Fool Prankster
Believed Responsible
London (U.PJ Police re
ported Tuesday that atomic
papers marked "top secret"
were found in a suburban
street by two schoolboys, but a
spokesman for the supply min
istry said they apparently
were the work of an April
fool prankster.
The papers also were lab
elled "Harwell" the name of
Britain's principal nuclear re
search establishment.
County's Barbers
Study 5-Day Week
Jackson county barbers are
discussing the possibility of
adopting a five-day week, it was
reported here today by Cecil
McDonald, president of the Jack
son County Babers union
Barbers in - Klamath county
recently voted to adopt a five
day week beginning April 7.
McDonald said he believes a ma
jority of barbers here favor such
a plan.
Where barbershops have
adopted the shorter week, the
extra day off has been Monday,
allowing a long week-end. Mc
Donald said about 75 to 80 per
cent of Oregon shops are now
on this schedule. A majority of
those in California and many
in Washington are also said to
be on the short week.
Barbers favoring the change
say it would eliminate many
idle hours during week-days.
