The high court held, in an opinion written by Justice Wal ter L. Tooze: " "If the Legislature, in the ex ercise of the police power, may fix minimum prices to be charged by barbers, it may, by the same token, fix minimum prices; it could also fix prices for personal services rendered in other trades, occupations and professions." The case came before the Su preme Court on appeal of the State Board of Barber Exam iners in its suit against Earl La Forge. La Forge, a Multno mah county barber, had chal lenged validity of the act on grounds it deprived him of a property right without due pro ces of law, in violation of the 14th amendment to the federal constitution. La Forge won out in the Multnomah county circuit court of Judge James W. Craw ford and the high court opinion affirms the trial court.

There : has been a growing awareness of a need for some such service among several groups, members report, and Dr. Sprang was asked here to discuss plans and possibilities of such a clinic. Facilities for guidance of chil dren in Jackson county are grossly and completely inade quate, Dr. Sprang stated, and he pointed out that at present the only such service is the trav eling clinic offered by the Uni versity of Oregon medical school and the State Board of Health twice a year. The con tinuation of even this is doubt ful, he added. Hope for Clime It is the hope of many that a community guidance clinic might be established in the county through the joint efforts of all agencies, a spokesman said today. Dr. Sprang pointed out that the cost of psychiatric treatment for children on a private family basis is nearly prohibitive, but that through community-wide efforts, such services could be within the reach of all. He em phasized that he did not feel a community should depend upon state or federal help, but that such a program should be mo tivated within the community. As an example he told of the clinic now established in Kelso, Wash., where a small donation and the interest of a labor un ion was the starting point. Steps Told The first step in organizing such a clinic, he stated, is to get all interested groups and individuals together, outline a definite program, appoint a rep resentative board to control poli cies, work out fmancing and then employ a psychiatric so cial worker. After this much has j been worked out, he then rec ommended employment of a psychiatrist on a part-time ba sis and later a trained psychol ogist. He stated such a clinic would air roughly four groups of chil dren those with disorders of in telligence (distortions of the ability to learn), those physical ly handicapped, those emotion ally disturbed and those with specific disabilities such as reading and writing in reverse, Tells of Services Outlining psychiatric guid ance clinics available in the state other than private sources, Dr. Sprang told of the Oregon Psychiatric Services for Chil dren, directed by Dr. Charles Bradley, a nationally known au- Renovation Slated On Medford Hotel Renovation of the front of the Medford hotel building is ex pected to commence Friday, Manager Harry Watson has an nounced. .
