slogan of their 7,000-mile Indian
tour. ,
Referring to Western ' denud
ations of his anti-British and
anti-American remarks on the
tour, Khrushchev said he would
"go on saying" that colonial re
gimes are a "blot" regardless of
"hatred" in the bourgeois press.
Bulganin, in a brief address
after his co-tourist spoke, said
they had a "wonderful trip." He
said the enthusiasm that greeted
them in Asia reflected friendship
and cooperation which will be
"an important fact for peace
which no one can ignore."

Council Calls Two Public
Hearings; Several Other
Items Given Consideration
The Medford city council last
night called public hearings on
two proposals recommended by
the planning commission.. Both
hearings will be held Feb. 7.
One is on vacation of a north
south alley in the Edwards Place
addition, and the other is on a
change of zone from multiple
family to commercial for prop
erty north of the YMCA.' Both
requests were recommended by
the planning commission last
summer following public hear
ings. The recommendations were
accepted by the council, but no
action was taken.
Grants Set-Back
The council adopted an ordi-
nance granting t a set-back
change on a piece of property in
Eastwood subdivision after a
public hearing at which there
was no opposition. The set-back
change was requested for con
struction of a car-port and was
recommended by the planning
commission.
Another ordinance authorized
assessments for a sanitary sewer
line along Oregon ave. from
Keene Way dr. to Oregon Ter
race. The cost will be S3.65 per
front foot, compared to engi
neer's estimates of S5.04. City
Manager Robert Duff said the
difference in actual cost and en
gineer's estimates was because
of relocation of the line.
The Oregon ave. sewer proj
ect was accepted with another
ordinance, as was the Eastwood
Capital ave. sanitary sewer line.
Assessment Ordinance
An assessment ordinance for
paving Park st. between West
Jackson and West Second sts.
also was adopted. Based on lin
eal foot basis, cost will be $6.44
per front foot, compared to
$6.39 estimated by city engi
neers. The council also adopted an
ordinance authorizing prepara
tions of plans and specifica
tions of a sanitary sewer area
south of Capital ave. between
Sunrise ave. and Valley View
dr.
The council tabled an ordi
nance authorizing preparation
of plans and specifications for a
sanitary trunk sewer, southeast,
of Medford. Members of the
council believed action should
be deferred until after an an
nexation election in the area
Jan. 16. The council will meet
Jan. 17 to canvass ballots and
councilmen believed considera
tion should be given a sanitary
sewer then if residents approve
annexation.
Retirement Compensation
Authorization was given for
revision to public employees re
tirement system to provide cov
erage for policemen and fire
men who retire at the age of
60 and before 65 when social se
curity becomes available. Duff
pointed out that under the pres
ent system, a policeman or fire
man may retire at 60, but can
not collect retirement compen
sation until 65.
Duff was authorized to sign
proof of loss regarding an ad
justment of $70 from insurance
companies for covering half the
cost of repairing the roof of the
Boy Scout building in Haw
thorne park. The roof was dam
aged by hail about two years
ago, but was not discovered un
til construction was started on
the annex to Girl Scout quarters
in the building, Duff said.
The council granted conver
sion of a private hangar lease
at the airport to Bartholomew,
Collins and Skinner. The ar
rangement is one in which the
city charges land rental fees for
private hangars.
Rental Space Granted
Rental space was also grant
ed Avis Rent-A-Car system in
the airport terminal. The lease
is effective Jan. 1. and will ex
pire Dec. 1, 1960. Terms are $60
per month the first two years,
S65 per month the third year,
$70 per month the fourth year,
and $75 per month the fifth
year.
The council authorized instal
lation of a stop sign at Leland
st. and Stewart ave. to conform
with other intersections along
Stewart ave. Leland st. is in the
Wilson Park addition just south
of Columbus ave.
City Attorney Frank Farrell
was instructed to prepare an or
dinance calling a public hearing
on a change of zone of the Marrs
Gibbons property at the corner
of Clark st. and McAndrews rd.
The planning commission recom
mendation was accepted.
The request was submitted to
change the section from two

Accept Recommendations
A planning commission recom
mendation "that the facilities of
the City of Medford be made
available only to those areas
that are within the corporate
limits of the City of Medford"
was accepted and placed on file.
No action was taken.
Duff reported that city-owned
property at the corner of 10th
and Washington sts. was zoned
for two family residences and in
the opinion of Farrell could not
be used to house the Jackson
county disaster car. Farrell said
the association which owns and
maintains the car, is not consid
ered a public organization, al
though the purpose of the car is
public.
Duff said the city owns a lot
on Beatty st., which is zoned for
light industrial uses, and which
could serve to house the car. Of
ficials of the association indicat
ed they would consider the
property:
The association requested
housing facilities for the car,
which is practically furnished.
