County Judge, Council Head
Speak for Republican Women
Jackson County Republican Women elected officers 'yesterday
and heard talks by John Snider, chairman of the city council and
County Judge Rodney Keating on local level government. Mrs.
Stephen G. Nye was re-elected to serve a second twc-year.term as
president.
Serving with Mrs. Nye will be
Mrs. Robert J. Keeney, first vice-
president; Mrs. Wayne Stine,
second vice-president; Mrs. Roy
Rickard, third , vice - president;
Mrs. W. J. Moreland, secretary,
and Mrs. John- Pletsch, treas
urer.
Mr. Snider spoke briefly of
Medf ord's . new city manager
system of government and said
it will work "if we let the city
manager manage." The speaker
pointed out that numerous func
tions going on inside the. city
are controlled by either, county
or state laws and officers, such
as sanitation laws and the sale
of liquor. v .
The city has to plan continual
ly for the future, he said, point
ing out that it is estimated Med-
ford's population will be 40,000
by 1970. He urged citizens not
to ally themselves with small
pressure groups seeking some
thing for the good of only ' a
few, but to be tolerant, offer
only constructive criticism and
keep themselves informed on
city government.
Mr. Snider pointed out that
there has liever been a woman
member of the city council and
said he felt that women should
"accept their responsibilities in
this field. ' In answer to a ques
tion, he said that the term of the
city manager is indefinite.
Judge Keating pointed out
that the county judge no longer
has any judicial power, as in the
past. The judge is now the chair
man of the county court, com
posed of two . county commis
sioners and. the judge, and. the
function of this group is to man
age the county's business.
He discused finances : briefly
and said "if our taxes are up,
it's you .who are raising them."
The judge said all departments
of the county were working
well together, that much new
needed equipment has been pur
chased for the various offices
and that "we are proud of our
road ' department and our out
standing county engineer."
The judge also praised' the
county public health-, depart
ment, pointing out it is rated at
the top among such departments
in the nation. He added that he
felt this was generally not
known by Jackson county resi
dents and that the. public rela
tions of the department should
be improved in ; order that this
fact would be known to all. .
Mrs. 'O. A. Eden, member of
the city planning commission,
spoke concerning the proposal
of the state highway department
to build a freeway which would
follow the course of Bear-creek
through the city. . She pointed
out. that many believe this
would detract materially from
the beauty and use of Haw
thorne park . and the parking
area near the Scout house, even
though the proposed - freeway
would be elevated, and said that
for many years it had been the
plan of citizens to use the creek
bank area for parks' as far south
as the Girl Scout day camp
ground. .
She urged citizens to inform

themselves concerning' this and
other proposed routes and com
municate their opinions to city
officials, j j

proposed by-law changes for the
group which will be voted on at
the next session. Mrs. Nye pre
sided." ' ': .. , '
Nutrition Topic

Medford Women

for a meeting of Medford Wom
an's Christian Temperance un

Community club. Her topic was
"Modern Nutritional Trends."
Mrs. Massie, active in the
Natural Food association of
southern Oregon, and a board
member for the national NFA,
stated that the way to better
health is through better foods.
She declared that whole wheat is
one of the most important foods,
since it contains large amounts
of valuable nutrients.
' The . speaker declared that the
remarkable stamina of the peo
ple of Russia and Germany is
due to the fact that they eat
bread made from whole grain
flours. v:
Mrs. Massie answered ques
tions concerning insecticides,
and cited reports of eminent
medical men to show that traces
of DDT can now be found in
the tissues of both -men and
domestic animals. Mrs. Mable
Houck introduced the speaker.

way to Health" was shown. This
movie, was made under the guid
ance ; of : Dr. -Tred D. Millter,

Work-Saving Mechanisms
Planned for New Kitchens
By ELIZABETH TOOMEY
United Press Correspondent
New York (UJ!) A friendly,
talkative fellow nam e d-Leroy
Kief er is around these days bear
ing g lad tidings for women.
Kiefer is a man of vision. He
envisions things that will make
life simpler for housewives.
: Better yet, he is in a positionl
to . turn wisniui tmnxing into
honest-to-goodness gadgets. ,He
took time out from 'supervising
the workmen who are setting up
the "Kitchen of Tomorrow" .to
chat sensibly about future work
saving wonders. .''.
''Almost everything has been
thought of before by someone,'
he said. "But maybe their timing
was wrong or t h e y didn't go
about it right". .; '
He said that even a new kitch
en stove with burners that flip
over when not in use . is based
on an old idea. : ' . .
Motor ama ' J - Z T '-V'
j : "Much the same mechanism
went into retractable headlights
back in 1939," said Kiefer, who
is director of product and ex
hibit d e s i g n for the General
Motors styling section. The'Frig
idaire "Kitchen of Tomorrow" is
part of their Motorama opening
here later this week.
. "What happens, when junior
pushes the 7 button to flip the
burners while you're cooking
dinner and dumps the string
beans into the machinery?" an
inquisitive bystander asked.
"We thought of that," Kiefer
said patiently. "Even the slight
weight of an empty pan trips a
gadget which keeps the burner
from turning." . v ;
The -kitchen looks like some
kind of pink and plum-colored
executive suite, with ; a desk at
one side where the housewife
plans her menus and can answer
the telephone without touching
it. All she does is wave her hand
over the phone and an electronic
proximity switch flips over; so
she can begin her conversation.
The refrigerator doors slide
up and down with the pressure
of a forefinger . and the glass
oven door slides down like an
automobile window at the touch
of a. button. .
Reason For Everything .:.
There are sensible reasons be

Kiefer said, even the recipe dial
which works like a small movie
screen to project microfilmed re-:

i "Instead of huvSn a (vmirKnnirT
