    Brownell Urges
That Rotary Not
Lose Simple Goals
A ple to keep Rotary simple
and not to lose the fundamental
goals of the half-century old or
ganization was voiced by Rotary
District Governqr Ambrose
Brownell of Milwaukie, Ore., in
a luncheon address here Tues
day. Speaking at the Jackson hotel,
the head of district 154 cited the
growth of the Rotary movement
in recent years, now extending
through much of the world with
450,000 members in 10,000 clubs.
Brownell arrived Monday to
confer wtih C. Weldon Kline,
president of the Medford Rotary
club, William Caldwell, secre
tary and other officials of the
local organization. Tuesday night
he met with directors and com
mittee chairmen at the Rogue
Valley Country club.
Elements of Danger
There is an element of danger
in bigness, the district governor
told Rotarians. That is true in
fraternal organizations as in gov
ernment and business. It is essen
tial that the ideas of Rotary
founder Paul Harris a half cen
tury ago be kept alive and not
lost in a sea of red tape and or
ganizational details.
The charge that America has
contributed nothing new to the
culture of the world might be
answered by citing the growth
of such organizations as Rotary
International. It would be inter
esting to speculate upon the
course world affairs might have
taken if such an order as Rotary,
dedicated to fellowship, under
standing and world peace, had
been established in Europe a cen
tury and a half ago, Brownell
said.
Discussing the1 world peace ef
forts of Rotary with club offi
cials here, Brownell pointed out
that Rotary International has
spent more than $2,000,000 dol
lars in recent years to advance
its foreign student fellowship
programs. Since 1947, when the
exchange student program was
initiated, 834 fellowships have
been awarded to students in 61
countries. The Medford Rotary
club will participate in the pro
gram this year.
MULTIPLE SHEEP
Elizabethtown, 111. (U.PJ
.A flock of sheep belonging to
Mr. and Mrs. Val Smith, who live
near here, had a big increase
this spring. It produced 23 sets
of twins and two sets of triplets.

Problem Facing j
Prefab Industry
Champaign.Ill. (U.R) Despite
the need for good low-cost hous
ing, the prefabricated home in
dustry cannot become a major
one until it solves internal prob
lems and overcomes outside op
position, according to a Neb
raska economist.
The views were expressed by
Prof. Campbell R. McConnell of
the University of Nebraska in a
recent University of Illinois
publication.
Within the industry, McCon
nell wrote, there has been failure
to take full advantage of mass
production methods.
"A survey of 44 prefabricators
reveals wide variation in the de
gree of actual factory fabrication
ranging from upwards of 90 per
cent down to 30 per cent of con
struction," he pointed out.
McConnell cited competition
from conventional builders, prob
lems of financing prefabricated
homes, opposition of labor
unions, antiquated building
codes and public skepticism as
hampering development.
Twelve large-scale prefabrica
tors, reporting -on their season
ality of production, indicated
wider seasonal changes than the
average for all types of home
construction.
Construction time on a pro
posed site for half the prefab
ricated houses is at least 36 days.
Slowness in completing financial
arrangements is often a cause for
delay.
"Despite all the difficulties,
the industry may have a bright
future, especially with a more
than occasional helping hand
from government," McConnell
concluded.
Maybe .cense Applicant
Was Only Poor Speller
Camden, N. J. Ol.EU Folks
at the municipal clerk's office
here still haven't decided wheth
er a tavern owner, who recently
applied for renewal of his li
cense, was a poor speller or a
hopeless egoist. On the line
where he must answer the ques
tion of whether he ever had
been cited for violation of the
state liquor laws, the applicant
noted he once had been closed
for 20 days for "immortal acts."
