Credit Controls On Housing May Be Partially Cut Washington (U.B A respon sible official declares it is "possible, but not probable" that the government will relax credit controls on houses. The Federal Reserve Board is considering modifications in its Regulation X, which sets terms for home-buying, and a decision is due within the next few weeks. The board last week sus pended its regulation W, which restricted installment buying of cars, TV sets and home appli ances. Board officials predict that Regulation X will not be re moved altogether, as was Regu lation W. Officials at the Hous ing and Home Finance adminis tration, which must agree on any change in Regulation X, are not even considering complete removal. Some Reserve Board officials are known to feel the present 50 per cent down payment require ment on higher priced houses Is too stiff. They favor a maximum requirement of one-third down. The building industry wants Regulation X removed entirely. f f f Tf ?f f ff f f f nnnninininiin : SMtNOTIMI II PARTY TIMII Tim to put ow color nd .' new flavor into evryday and pirif rtcipes with Crciceat Spicei, FliTon, Sprinx.

CRESCENT SPICES FLAVORS MAPLEINE 1 Medford Safety Council Explains Signal Operation The Medford Safety council this week issued the following explanation of the traffic sig nal system at the intersection of East Main street and River side avenue, in an attempt to clarify its proper operation: Many people going through Medford probably have the strange, "Am doing right?" feeling that many Medfordites do when they approach the In tersection at Main street and Riverside avenue. Actually, the signals there are a directional mechanism which, if studied for few minutes, will become clear. The main thought to keep in mind is, follow the light appear ing at the head of the lane of traffic in which you are travel ling. Going Cast on Main street in the left hand lane you will notice when the light at the head of the left lane of traffic is green it is pointing for a left hand turn. This is the only leg al direction in which to go when you are in the left lane of traf fic. This left lane is not for through traffic, even though the signal is green the arrow is still pointing left and any course of traffic other than a left hand turn Is illegal. Through Lan On the other hand, going east on Main Street and approaching the signal in the right hand lane of traffic you will notice the sig nal is aimed to direct through traffic. This is the one and only lane of traffic eastbound auth orized for through traffic. The reason Is that where there have been two lanes of traffic before, they are now merged in to one lane. Therefore, it is rea sonable that only one lane' of east bound traffic should b e through traffic. When there is only one lane of traffic, with two automobiles both heading for that lane, there is bound to be trouble, possibly resulting in a minor accident ' which the Safety council of Medford is try ing to prevent by this explana tion of the. traffic signals. Convention Delegate Candidates Luncheon Held by GOP Women Climaxing a series of meetings! hower. Lausmann said that while Business entered Two break and enter complaints were filed Monday at the city police office'. Doug Hinesley's Union service station, 618 East Main street, was entered by break ing the front door glass, and an adding machine was dropped outside the building and left, police said. A small amount of money was left undisturbed. The Medford Bargain house, 442 North Fir street, was enter ed on Saturday by forcing the office door. Nothing of value was missing, according to police. Improved The condition of Mrs. Lillian Clark, 528 Pearl street, who suffered a fractured hip and arm in a fall May 3, is improved, friends said today. She now may have visitors, they added. at which candidates were given an opportunity to state their views, Jackson County Republi can Women heard candiBates for delegate to the national conven tion speak at a luncheon meeting Monday noon at the Jackson ho tel. Mrs Ben Stafford, chairman, presided and Mrs. Stephen G. Nye introduced the candidates. Robert Elliott, Medford, chair man of the Oregon Republican Central committee and candidate for delegate-at-large was first on the program and began by speak ing of the great interest being shown in the coming elections. He said the pre-primary regis tration was the greatest in the history of the state and gave figures on the comparative Re publican and Democratic regis trations. Praises Workers He praised Jackson county party workers, saying "they have done a good job." Speaking of his own candi dacy, Elliott reviewed his party activities and said that it was important to elect delegates who would be influential convention workers and who would not just merely cast a bollot. He pointed out that because of his state chairmanship, he had not aligned himself closely with any of the candidates. William McAllister, Medford attorney and another candidate for delcgate-at-large, pointed out that he is chairman of the las- enhower for president commit tee" in Jackson county and said he had given the local campaign as much time and strength as possible Points Out Petitioners McAllister reviewed in some detail the difference between the "declaration" and "petition candidates and pointed out that the latter are not bound to vote for the presidential candidate named in the primary by the people. Because of the large number of delegates-at-large candidates and because six of the 51 would be free, if elected, to vote for Taft, McAllister urged his listen ers to vote for the 10 candidates announced as the preferred list from Oregon Eisenhower head quarters, instead of "scattering the vote. Mrs. Hallic Huntington, Eu gene, candidate for delegate from the fourth congressional district, said she was "dedicated to the task of putting a Repub lican in the White House" and added -that she would "support the people s choice. Mrs. Hunt ington paid tribute to the work which Mrs. Bereth P. Hopkins has done for the party in Jack son county and said "I wish ev ery county in the state had a Mrs. Hopkins." Filed by Declaration Pointing out that he had filed by declaration, and would be bound to vote at first for the party's choice as indicated in the primary, A. R.

Mrs. Estelle O. Morris, Albany, a fourth congressional district candidate, said "I have .a great stake in this country" and add ed that she was the mother of six children and has IS grand children which "I want to have as much as I had, and perhaps more. Mrs. Morrison declared that she considered the conven tion "a very serious business" and added that under the pres ent administration, "We know where we've been but not where we're going." Mrs. Morrison is a former national committeewom- an from Wisconsin. Eugene A. Springer, Roseburg, another fourth c6ngressional dis trict candidate, said, "I want a man who can be elected, but in my heart I favor Taft." Admit ting that Senator Taft does not have the "glamour or uniform" of Eisenhower, Springer said he would have liked the general better if he had been willing to discard his uniform and "come home and make an honest cam paign." He declared that the same wing of the party which had favored Wendell Willkie and Gov. Thomas Dewey now favor ed Eisenhower, and pointed out that this group had not been able to elect candidates in the past. Springer closed by saying he didn't want a man whose for eign policy was going to be the same as the present administra tion. Cites Responsibility Last to speak among fourth congressional district candidates was Mrs. Hopkins, chairman of the Jackson County Republican Central committee and a Med- for resident. Mrs. Hopkins began by saying she had a deep sense of responsibility to "my son and other young people of America," "and continued, "If I didn't do what I could to change the trend which is carrying this country to destruction, I would be be traying a trust." Mrs. Hopkins declared "ther are many fine men in the Repub lican party there is no indispen sable man, and I want the party to nominate a man who can be elected and adopt a platform which we intend to carry out. We should remamber that we are not electing a man to be head of the party, but a man to be president of the United States." She gave figures on the num ber of Republican, Democrat and independent voters and stressed that the party should pick a candidate who will be able to attract the independent vote as well as Democrats. Voters Should Think Mrs. Hopkins closed by say ing 6ho would support the man named by the voters in the pri mary and added "voters should think a lot before they vote; study all the men, don't just trust the opinion of your news paper or your neighbor. In closing the meeting, Mrs. Nye asked Elliott to comment on voting for electors and Elliott said "in my opinion it makes ab solutely no difference which electors we vote for." Mrs. Nye called the attention of the audience to the coming school election in the Medford district, and urged everyone to vote Jack T. Walker, 2415 Lyman avenue, a prominent used car salesman in Medford for a num ber of years, has announced the opening of his own used car lot here. Previously he has been as sociated with Crater Lake Mot or company and until last week with the Cooksey Motor comp any. His lot Is located at 400 East Jackson street, back of the Med ford armory.
