The purpose of this week is to remind the whole public of the moral obligation to be kind to animals. In many cases the Humane Society is an enforcing agency. We do, and may make arrests wherever we find anyone flagrantly abusing or mistreating animals and the mere fact that the person owns the animal won't help him escape conviction in a court of law, either. Usually, though, we let off an offender with a reprimand the first time. We're trying to edu cate, not to punish. But where there is repeated cruelty, or in flagrant cases, we go the limit we prosecute. In our book, cruel ty is cruelty and suffering is suffering . . . and we see no rea son why a person guilty' of cruel ty toward a defenseless animal is any less a criminal than if TYPEWRITERS ADDING MACHINES STEEL FILES CHAIRS DESKS NEW AND USED Wt repair all makes Typewriters, Adding Machinal ALL WORK GUARANTEED MEDFORD OFFICE EQUIPMENT COMPANY 41 1 Grape St. Phone 2-4100 The VINING REPERTORY LITHIA Theatre, Athland On Stage 8:30 p.m. TOMORROW!

The resolution followed by about a week of joint meeting of the chamber's aviation com mittee with that of the Klamath County Chamber of Commerce. In the resolution, the cham ber's board pointed out that Med ford and Klamath Falls are both trading centers, doing a retail trade sales business of some $60, 000,000 or more each per year, both are distant from metropoli tan trade areas, and that the economy of the area requires frequent travel and mail and telephone communications. Community of Interest There is a great community of interest between the two areas, the resolution points out, but the Cascade mountains sepa rate them, and aside from bus or auto travel over a narrow, hazardous road, the only method of transportation between the two is by air. "The need for fast passenger he had committed it against his fellow man. Our organization like all other members of the American Hu mane association, of which there are over 600 fn the United States, are bound together by one common tie . . . to protect them, to make their lot an easier one. So, let's all be kind this week, and every week. Mrs. S. W. Richardson, Secretary-Manager Human Society Medford, Ore. M.T. Aid is Appreciated To the Editor: The Medford Ministerial Association wishes to express its appreciation for your cooperation with the churches of the city and for your demon strated interest in the spiritual and moral welfare of the com- mnnitv. Your contributions In behalf of the Religion in American Life Program through display adver tising are significantly effective. We feel singularly blessed in hav ing a local press which offers such friendly and complete cov erage of religious news. As the only newspaper In the community, the influence and responsibility of the Medford Mail Tribune is difficult to over emphasize. We are gratified at the way the Tribune is discharg ing this important obligation to the citizens of Medford. Robert J. Cox, secretary Medford Ministerial Association, He Is for Taft To the Editor: I am an "old man" who has had many trou bles, that never come to pass. Too often we build huge mountains in life's pathway.to find the "hi way" is level and reasonable. Looking back to the records, I am amazed that people would hear the call of organized union leaders, of which most cannot speak the English language clear. Let me give you some figures straight from the records: Back in the early twenties, Henry Ford paid an average wage of $5 per day. At that time you could buy a Ford automobile for $475. Today, union leaders tell their members, "Look what we done for you, we got you $14 a day wages." Now, let us look at the record: The price of a Ford today is $2,200, which requires 156 work ing days at $14 a day to pur chase. I would like to ask the good union laborer "who cheated you out of that 61 days of hard labor?" Yes, you, Mr. Labor, have al lowed "fee" to the man who has swindled, cheated and de ceived you out of your own hard labor. Let me go farther: "Business" is like an "old woman," and I nave had a lot of experience with her. In closing I would like to add this: Labor should be proud someone who has brains enough to handle money, might create employment for him or her. Let us vote for Taft, we know him. Tom M.
