TWO MEDFORD (OREGON) MAIL TRIBUNE Thursday. March 3. 1955 Professor To Speak On Trade Dr. John M. Swarthout, na tionally known head of the po litical science department of Ore gon State college, -will be guest speaker at a luncheon of Med ford League of Women Voters Saturday, March 5, in the Med ford Hotel at 12:30 p.m. Final arrangements for this general meeting were made at the League's monthly board meeting held in the office of the county school superintendent yesterday.

The Medford league, one of 450 local leagues throughout the United States who have helped in making this nation-wide sur vey, has been seeking out infor mation on who benefits from expanding United States trade with other nations and who gets hurt from expanding trade in this community. When the1 na tional league's work is com pleted, about 300 separate sur veys will have been carried out. They will differ in scope and content but, insofar as is known, the total effort will constitute the greatest attempt made to date to determine the effects of foreign trade on our individual communities. In addition to such informa tion, the League also hopes to provide a collection of opinions of interested persons and groups as to how particular problems concerned with trade could be solved. Mrs. H. P. Bosworth gave a resume of the work done to date by the league's committee on meat inspection legislation to wards achieving the passage of Oregon HB 99, which concerns meat inspection on a state wide basis.

O- goody, she exclaimed to the governor of Trinidad, "I'm so glad you have a steel band." Besides the neckline contro versy, there was an unusual number of "sensations." There were reports before the tour started that she would not shake hands with persons in the islands, but a sharp announce ment from Clarence House, her home, said she would "of course" shake hands. 1 In fact she shook hands with as many people .as possible, and would have been glad to even more opportunities of meeting people. Now, it is said, her ambition is a trip to the United States. CALENDAR Tour Ended for Princess; British Express Approva By ROBERT MUSEL United Press Correspondent " "London-(U.R) Princess "Mar garet comes home from her West Indian tour today. This is what London is saying: 1. She carried off her duties as royal ambassador magnifi cently. The British liked the way she fought against the for mality which sometimes con fines the royal family and the fact she stopped her car to re ceive flowers or chat with by standers when possible. 2. . The low-neckline gowns, she wore were all right. The Princess trotted out some daring for royalty necklines, but a London newspaper which asked its readers what they thought about them reported that 75 per cent were in favor of theni. 3. Does she still love 40-year-old Group Capt. Peter Town send, who suddenly left the royal household to become air attache at Brussels when their romance was reported two years ago? - Birthday Approaching The subject is timeiy because the princess already is six months past 24 years old and only six' more months away from a date that looms larger with every passing day August 21, her birthday. Then she can, if she wishes, announce her in tention to marry without the ap proval of, her sister, the Queen. Only an act of Parliament can stop it. Townsend is divorced and the Queen, as head of the Church of England, cannot approve her sister's marriage to him. Since Margaret has no really close friends, there is no one to whom she has confided the present state of her feelings to ward Townsend. Court circles hopefully believe the romance is dead but an important Buck ingham Palace source, asked for an opinion today, confided: "If you find out, tell me." But regardless either of spec ulation over her romance or controversy over Jier low neck lines, the princess also had fun on her trip. She Had Fun She rode tb3 Rio Grande Rap ids in Jamaica, sang in her bath, played the piano and almost joined the Calypso dancers.

On the farm, in industry and at home, power de mands will continue to double with each decade. COPCO is meeting this challenge with its building program. In 1954 $12,196,058 were spent for additions and improvements to our electrical properties, bringing to a total of $94,753,318 the amount invested in additional generating capacity and other service facilities since the end of World War II. At Klamath Falls a $1,474,464 substation began operations -and a new system load dispatching center ' was completed near Medford. Transmission and . distribution lines were considerably extended all through the Copco system, and surveys contin ued to be made in connection with the proposed Klamath and McCloud River developments. In 1955 an estimated $10,000,000 will be spent on further expansion. As a part of the year's construction program, Lemolo No. 1 hydro plant on the upper North Umpqua River will be completed. In addition, work will continue on Lemolo No. 2 and on other hydroelectric projects. You have a stake in the Pacific Northwest. With its rich natural resources, it is one of our last frontiers.
