MAIL TRIBUNE
A "Package" Program
One of these days and it should be soon the
finance committee of the Medford city council will
come up with its findings on how to finance a major
development program for Medford.
Preliminary estimates indicated that it will cost
more than $2,000,000. Common sense shows that it
is badly needed. A review of recent trends in taxation,
and of the reaction by taxpayers, forecasts that it will
have to be thoroughly sold to the voters of Medford.
'THE present thinking about the "package" program
involves three elements.
1. An arterial street program, to cost approxi
mately $1,656,000. This will provide more ways' of
getting from one side of town to another, widen the
streets which carry the most traffic to 'permit more
rapid and smoother flow of automobiles, provide a
more nearly integrated system of traffic signals, and
generally make life easier (and less expensive in wear
and tear, gasoline costs, and tempers) for the
motorist.
2. A storm sewer program, to cost approximately
$380,000. The need for this is pretty obvious to any
one who has looked around Medford during periods
of wet weather. It's a lot more obvious to residents
who have high water in their basements and yards
every winter.
3. An off -street parking program, to cost approxi
mately $600,000. Without this, the arterial street pro
gram would be, at least in part, self-defeating, for
without more "terminal facilities" (as the experts
call downtown parking lots and spaces) what good
would it do to make it easier to get downtown in an
automobile?
THERE is a probability that a fourth component, a
1 $112,900 program to enlarge and expand certain
overloaded segments of the
tem, will be included.
Totaling these, if all projects are included at these
first estimates, we arrive at the figure of $2,748,000.
Over a 10-year period it works out to $274,890 per
year. This is a hefty sum of
third and one-half of the total budget ior iy5b-5.
Would the voters of Medford cast their ballots in
favor of increasing their
don t know.
W'HAT we do know is that it would be a wise idea
fr molro euro that Trio omnnnfs ncVprl mo as small
as they can be and still do the necessary job. Medford
residents have shown, time and again, that when a
reasonable request is made for tax money to perform
a necessary function, they are willing to pay the bill.
If it can be demonstrated that each of these items
is reasonable and necessary, we believe they will
again show that willingness.
If there is a question about one or more of the
items, that question might well cause all of them
to be defeated. That is the disadvantage of a "pack
age" program. But the "package" approach, on the
other hand, has the advantage of clarity and speed
a way to solve four pressing problems at one time.
A S WE see it, the package method should be tried,
for all the improvements in it are badly needed,
as any realistic appraisal will indicate.
Members of the council and of the citizens' budget
committee, who reviewed 'the plans put forward for
off-street parking, are a bit dubious about that
$600,000 item, and fear that resistance to it' might
damage the chances for overall success for all. We
think they may be underrating the common sense of
Medford voters, most of whom are motorists and who
are aware that better parking facilities are needed
badly and soon.
A T THE same time, we have long felt that the down
town business and professional people who have
"carried the ball" for a parking program have a
heavier responsibility for leadership in this field than
other elements within the city, for it is they who will
benefit most directly and most immediately al
though the benefits will, of course, ultimately be
shared by all.
If the $600,000 parking item is too big a chunk
for the city fathers to swallow, we would like to see
explored the idea of a combination program, with a
portion of the cost borne by the bond issue, and the
rest by previously-suggested contributions by down
town businessmen and property owners, through in
creased and readjusted business license contributions,
and a commercial property license contribution.
The program as a whole is important if Medford
is to continue its progress and growth. E.A.

The Fourth of July fireworks show at the high
school stadium last Wednesday night was one of the
best events of its kind we've ever seen.
. The police and fire departments jumped into the
fun with both feet (particularly the red-underwear-clad
firemen who looked to be having as much fun
as anyone). E. M. Tucker's display of old-time cars
was fascinating. The handling of the fireworks was
expert and, commendably, done with an eye toward
safety.
THE YMCA and its organizations are to be com
mended for the show, which thrilled both the older
spectators who haven't seen such a show in years
and the younger ones, who never have seen one.
As one father said aftenvard, "Well, they're going
to HAVE to make it an annual event now. The kids
won't let 'em stop with one."
That a show like this can be combined with such
a worthy cause as helping keep the YMCA summer
camp on a sound basis is a good omen. E.A. '

Wild Ducks
Grain; Wildlife Laws Enacted
Washington (CQ) Congress
has formally invited wild ducks
to peck away at its mountain of
surplus grain.
The invitation is in the form
of a bill passed by both the
House and Senate. It received
the President's signature July 3
to become official.
The only obstacle in sight is
from the ducks themselves. Will
they turn their bills up at the
grain nobody else wants and
keep right on eating farmers'
crops during their North and
South migrations?
The Fish and Wildlife Service
plans to find out as soon as the
bill becomes law. The Service
will spread grain along migra
tory routes, especially in wild
life refuges, in hopes of decoy
ing the ducks to dine there in
stead of in farmers' fields.
Other Wildlife Laws
In other wildlife legislation
important but not likely to
swing the election Congress so
far this session:
Declared all-out war on the
sea lamprey that has been de
stroying trout and whitefish in
the Great Lakes by the ton.
Agreed to spend almost a mil
lion dollars to encourage trout
and bass to breed in captivity.
Passed a bill to let Eskimos
sell walrus tusk in the raw in
stead of requiring them to carve
it up into ivory trinkets first.
Agreed to build dams to make
sure that Georgia's Okefenokee
swamp stays wet enough to pre
vent fires there.
Serious Purposes
Despite the off-beat nature of
the bills, they have serious pur
poses behind them.
Millions of dollars ride on the
success or failure of the bill to
feed wildfowl surplus grain and
the one to wipe out the sea lam
prey, for instance.
Wildlife Service officials say
that migrating ducks and geese
have become a tremendous pest
to farms along migratory routes,
especially in California. By the
thousands they flock down on
the fertile fields of the Sacra
mento, Imperial and San Joa
quin valleys, finding growing
gram and vegetables so tasty
that they stay for weeks instead
of continuing their flight to na
tural habitats.
Under the bill sent to the
President June 26, any com
munity bothered by the migra
tory towl could get grain
through the Secretary of Inte
rior, from the Commodity Credit
Corp. to use as a decoy. The
Wildlife Service intends to su
pervise the program to guard
againt duck baiting, putting out
gram to get ducks within shoot
ing distance. The feeding experi
ment would last three years.
Lamprey War
President Eisenhower .m a d e
the lamprey war official June 4
by signing into law the bill au
thorizing it. The chief weapons
will be electrocution devices
and lamprey poisons.
The lamprey, sometimes call
ed a vampire eel, is native to the
ocean. It is an 18-inch eel-like
creature that first struck in
Lake Ontario, presumably by
swimming in from the ocean via
the St. Lawrence river.
Shortly , after the Welland
canal by passing Niagara Falls
was opened, the lamprey pro
ceeded upstream into Lake Erie
and then to Lake Huron.
Fish and Wildlife Service sta
tistics show that the lamprey ate
up 870 tons of lake trout in Lake
Huron alone between 1935 and
1951. One lamprey eats between
20 and 40 pounds of fish in his
18 months of adulthood.
Adjournment Seen
July 28 by
United Press correspond
ents around the world look
ahead at the news that will
make the headlines.
Getaway Day
Congressional leaders aren't
saying it publicly or officially.
But they've privately set their
sights on the week end of July
28 at the adjournment target
date. Some members still say
the session can be wound up by
July 15 or 20. But most of those
close to the realities feel they
still need another three weeks
and are planning accordingly.
Atomic Outpost
American intelligence may
deny it. But London insiders say
that at least two United States
Air Force Lockheed U2 jet
planes are operating in Britain.
The U2 is on the secret list. But
it's known to be a big flying lab
oratory. It can't break the sound
barrier. .What it can do is fly to
extremely high altitudes, above
60,000 feet. What are the U2s
up to in Britain? Taking read
ings, they say, on the radioactive
content of the air atomic out
post duty. Russian atomic mush
room clouds are their soup.
Trouble for the Reds
American observers in For
mosa predict a series of local up
risings in Red China soon. Intel
ligence reports from the Communist-ruled
mainland say that
rumblings of discontent among
the ill-fed masses are growing
louder. No big scale revolt is
possible now. But spontaneous
To Peck at
In 1945, the lamprey reached
the most inland of the Great
Lakes, Lake Superior. Natural
ists theorize that the lamprey
got through the locks of the Soo
canal by attaching itself to the
ships sailing through them.
Prolific Breeder
With each female lamprey lay
ing 61,500 eggs the one time in
her life she spawns, the locust
proportions will wipe out the
$10 million a year fishing indus
try enjoyed in the lakes unless
checked. The law authorized a
two-front attack by the U.S. and
Canada on the lamprey and co
ordination of fish research for
the lakes. The U.S. expects to
pay $1.8 million just to fight
the lamprey in the next three
years.
Electrical fences will be
strung across the streams the
lamprey swims up to spawn. A
warning tickle of electricity will
cause other fish to bypass the
fence, but the boneless lamprey
will swim into it and be electro
cuted. The Fish and Wildlife
Service has spent about $1.7
million experimenting with elec
trocution and other weapons
since 1949.
But the Service is even more
optimistic about a chemical
which has been developed after
5,000 tries. It seeps into the mud
where the lamprey larvae devel
op for five years and kills them
without hurting other water life.
Hatchery Appropriations
In an opposite approach, Con
gress passed and the President
signed into law two bills to
build fish hatcheries, one in the
Pisgah National forest in North
Carolina and another near Miles
City, Mont.
The Pisgah hatchery is esti
mated to cost $375,000, with
$96,000 of the amount going for
homes for the trout and $50,000
for homes for the men to take
care of them. The legislation
was requested in order to keep
the number of fish ahead of the
fishermen in the 1,200 miles of
park streams.
The Miles City hatchery
would be used to breed 10 mil
lion fish a year, mostly northern
and walleye pike, bass, blue
gills and catfish. The fish would
be stocked in farm ponds with
out charge in Montana, Idaho,
Oregon, Washington, California
and parts of North Dakota and
Wyoming. '
Walruses
Another wildlife bill passed
would amend the 1941 Walrus
Protection act by permitting
Alaskan Eskimos to sell walrus
tusks and hides. It would allow
also non-natives of Alaska to
shoot more than the current
one-walrus-a-year limit, provid
ing he hunted with a paid na
tive guide.
Current law permits natives
to shoot only the walruses they
need for food and clothing. The
ivory tusks from the shot ani
mals can be exported from Alas
ka after they have been carved
into trinkets, but no other part
of the animal can be sold
The bill is designed to give
the native economy a lift. A ma
ture walrus tusk is worth about
$100 in the raw state and the
hide about $120. Assistant Sec
retary of Interior Wesley A.
D'Ewart told Congress that lim
its on the amount of hides that
could be exported would protect
the walruses from widespread
slaughter.
Okefenokee Swamp
. A bill to keep the Okefenokee
National Wildlife refuge in
Georgia wet awaits Senate ac
tion before it can be sent to the
President. It would authorize
dams to control the water level
Congress
outbreaks by villagers and peas
ants are likely.
Air Safety
Look for the Airline Pilots
association to step up its demand
for restoration of the govern
ments old Air Safety Board as
the result of the Grand Canyon
disaster. The ASB was an inde
pendent three-man group that
used to investigate air acci
dents. President Franklin D.
Roosevelt abolished it in 1940
and turned its functions over to
the Civil Aeronautics board. The
pilots always have felt that the
CAB, which makes safety rules,
ought not to investigate acci
dents which might be due to its
own faulty regulations.
Steel Strike Echo
The steel strike has set auto
mobile men to intensified study
of a possible substitute for steel
as the basic passenger car mate
rial. But they agree it's a mat
ter for the far future. None is in
sight now.

Democrats Ponder
Man To Deliver
Keynote Address
Chicago U.R) Top Demo
crats huddle today to decide who
will deliver the keynote address
at the national convention Aug.
13.
At least nine party leaders
were under consideration for the
duty. The final selection was to
be made at an afternoon meeting
of the convention and arrange
ments committee called to order
by Democratic Chairman Paul
Butler.
Most likely candidates for the
job appeared to be Sen. Henry
M. Jackson (Wash.) and Sen.
Robert S. Kerr (Okla.). Both
were said to be acceptable to
the groups supporting New York
Gov. Averell Harriman and Sen.
Estes Kefauver for the president
ial nomination.
Other Possibilities
Other men seen as the possible
keynoter were Sen. John F. Ken
nedy of Massachusetts, Sen. Hu
bert H. Humphrey of Minnesota
and Gov. Frank C. Clement of
Tennessee. All three are back
ing Adlai E. Stevenson's bid for
the nomination.
Also mentioned for the key-
noting assignment were Govs.
Edmund S. Muskie of Maine,
George Douglas of Illinois and
Rep. John McCormack, House
majority leader, of Massachu
setts.
This was expected to be the
final meeting of the arrange
ments committee before the con
vention gets underway at the
international amphitheater.
Sen. Morse Raps
School Bill Defeat
Portland (U.R) Sen. Wayne
Morse flew back to Washington
Saturday but not before firing a
parting shot at the coalition of
Representatives that killed the
school aid bill in congress last
week.
"The defeat in the House of
Representatives of the school
construction bill is a blow to the
children of America and is also
a great disservice to the security
of our country," Morse said.
He added that it is of vital im
portance to this country to keep
ahead of Russia in "brainpower,1
something "many people who are
opposed to federal aid to educa
tion do not seem to understand."
"I shall support President Ei
senhower to the limit on this
issue," Morse said. "In fact, I
hope he will urge Congress to re
main in session if necessary be
yond its planned adjournment
date until it passes the best pos
sible education bill."
Sen. Morse had spem a week
in Oregon, vacationing and con
ferring with his campaign lead
ers.
Uphill Fight Seen
On Postal Rise Bill
Washington (U.R) The
Eisenhower administration today
faced a tough fight to get its
$430 million annual boost in
postal rates through the senate.
The house passed the bill Fri
day night after a hot, partisan
fight.
. With congress expected to ad

administration faced an uphill
fight to pBCvent the measure
from dying in a Senate Post Of
fice committee pigeonhole. Com
mittee Chairman Olin D. John
ston (D-SC) is a strong oppon
ent of the postal increase.
In the house, the bill had the

fe&. MIDNIGHT
In The Day's
Our air force chief of staff
General Nathan Twining has just
returned from an eight-day visit
to Russia where he seems to
have been given an unusually
good look at the Russian air
power.
He reported to President 'Eis
enhower, and following his con
ference with the President he
told newsmen that in his opin
ion we are ahead of the Russians
now in the QUALITY of our air
power,, and should be able to
stay ahead of them.
He added: "It is possible, of
course, that Russia might sur
pass us in air power by 1960 IF
WE DON'T KEEP MOVING."
pRESUMABLY we will keep
V moving. With world condi
tions what they are it is incon
ceivable that we should stand
still. That would be like sitting
your porch and sipping a
lemonade and reading the fun
nies while a flood was roaring
down the valley toward your
home.)
THE dispatches this morning
say it seems unlikely that ad
ministration critics will be silenc
ed by General Twining's opinion
that all in all we are doing pretty
well.
One of these critics is Sen.
Henry Jackson of the state of
Washington, who is a member of
senate subcommittee that is
digging into the subject of rela
tive air strength of the United
States and Russia. He says he
has some pointed questions to
ask when General Twining ap
pears before this senate group.
I
THINK it would be a good idea
for us ordinary voters to keep
our fingers carefully crossed on
this air strength business until
after the first week of this com
ing November.
It is a highly explosive politi
cal issue, with the Democratic
strategists seeking to make it
appear that the Eisenhower ad
ministration is deliberately en
dangering our country's future
in order to save a little tax
money. ;
That was the political idea
back of the recent addition of
somewhat more than a billion
dollars to the administration's
estimate of the funds needed for
keeping our air power up to par
in the present fiscal year.

exactly what the .Democratic
politicians are doing now.
That's politics for you.
T'D LIKE to offer a little more
advice to non-political readers
of the news.
Keep your fingers crossed on
this federal aid to the school
business that is stirring up such
a ruckus in Washington these
days. It also is heavily loaded
with politics.
It appears that because of poli
tical maneuvering (such as the
controversial amendment deny
ing federal school aid to states
which permit classroom segrega
tion) the school aid bill is dead
for the present. If so, it is fortu
nate. Federal aid to the schools
a dangerous experiment in
any event, and it is doubly dan
gerous when the purpose back
of it is the garnering of racially
conscious votes.

As it happened, there was

Up From Death
GEO. N. TAXLOR
Christ, the Son of God, created
all things and without Him was
nothing made that was made
John 1:3. In due
time man was
created and
created free
from sin. And
he was warned
that if he sin
ned, he must
surely die. Yet
he sinned in the
face of that
warning and he
died. So death
passed upon all men. For Adam,
our first parent sinned and died
and from that day all have sin
ned and died. But God so loved
all men that He sent Christ, the
treasure of his heart, to take
