And this streamlined beauty takes on the field with more than six dozen "firsts", all proved by 100,000 of the roughest, toughest test miles a group of facts-minded engineers could devise!

Sixth and North Grape Medford Wednesday, February 6, 1957 I His Own proposed legislation states the federal money snouia go to tne I ' " ' w it ; t0 sch'00i districts to be used as needed for salaries, mainten ance, books or new facilities. This eliminates any possibility of federal control." GOP Bill 'Too Little' Morse described as "too little and too late" the program for federal aid proposed recently by the Eisenhower administra tion, and pointed out that in its first two years, the administra tion ignored the school crisis from the standpoint of federal help. "When the White House fi nally did call for federal aid for school construction," Morse said, "most of the money was earmarked for purchase of school bond issues. This pro gram would not help the aver age district, which has its big gest problem in raising money for repayment of bond issues, not in finding a market for them." "Furthermore," he added, "a disproportionate share of the money needed to educate Amer ican boys and girls would have gone to banking institutions in the form of interest." Of the new administration plan to provide funds for school construction, Morse described as "unnecessary and undesirable" the requirement that states match the federal money with their own funds, also earmark ed exclusively for construction purposes. He pledged to push for elimination of the rule. Speed Said Needed "This requirement means," Morse said, "that a state already raising as much as it can will not get federal help. And if any new money is raised it will all go for construction, to the ne glect of teachers' salaries, books, equipment and other equally urgent needs." The Senator emphasized the need for speed in dealing with the school crisis. He pointed out that in the postwar years, many American youngsters have been attending "overcrowded, under staffed schools, sometimes on a part-time basis." "We will never know what they have lost in earning pow er because of this handicap, or the JbomJb The handsome husky you see a lot of the low-price jobs, this three" owners!

Iraq Prince Talks With Eisenhower , Washington :U.R) A sec ond member of Arab royally, Crown Prince Abdul Illah of Iraq, Tuesday began a round of discussions with President Eis enhower and other U.S. offic ials on the Eisenhower doctrine for protecting the Middle East from Communism. Illah, a power behind the throne in his country, was sched uled to confer with Mr. Eisen hower this morning, with Dep uty Defense Secretary Reuben B. Robertson at lunch and with Secretary of State John Foster Dulles in the afternoon. In addition to discussing the overall Middle East situation, the prince will ask for increas ed U.S. military and perhaps more economic aid for his na tion. Among other things, Iraq is reported to want American jet planes. what losses their communities have suffered because their ca pacities were not fully develop ed," Morse concluded. "Passage; of an adequate school aid bill must be the foremost domestic goal of this Congress." of "firsts" and art eye-popping right here has the boat still rocking ... newcomer is making big-time buyers hi&ft&fff P&ntfac Phone Water Main Project Approved by Council The Medford city council last night passed a resolution for construction of a water main on Marie st. from Saling ave. to Jackson st. The main will extend on Jack son st. from Marie st. to Mad ison place, and on Madison place from Jackson st. to the alley be tween Jackson st. and Queen Anne ave. The council called a public hearing March 5 on construction of a trunk water main on South Grape st. from Monroe st. to a point 826 north of there. Paving Projects Ordinances also were adopted assessing property owners on Ashland ave. from Ninth to 11th sts. and on Broad st. from Clark to East Jackson st. for paving projects. Property owners on Ashland ave. from 9th to 11th sts. will be assessed $7.33 per front foot. Engineer's estimate was $7.46. Cost of the project was S11.490, 29, and the engineer's estimate was $11,379.50. Assessment for property own ers on Broad st. from Clark to East Jackson sts. will be $6.91 per front foot. Engineer's esti mate was $7. Total cost of the project was S14.263.79 and the engineer's estimate was $12,460. An ordinance was passed pro viding hat planes of the Med ford air service for crop dusting operations, when loaded and op erated from an airport more than 40 air line miles from the Medford airport, be excluded the two per cent gross receipt pay ment under the air service lease. Radius Changed The radius was changed from 50 miles to 40 miles excluding crop dusting operations from the Cave Junction and the Klamath Falls airports. The council granted a new 10 year lease to Rogue Flying Serv ice, Inc., effective Jan. 1, 1957, to Dec. 31, 1966. Annual ground rental by the flying service will be $666.86, or one cent per square foot per year. The lease directs the flying service to administer "tie down fees" instead of the city. Tie down fees will be one dollar per """5 price tag! -0- 2-5241 day or S10 per month. The fly ing service will pay the city 50 per cent of the gross amount re ceived. Mercy Flight planes will not be obligated to pay fees, since the planes are seldom on flying service property. Connection Fee The council authorized the water commission to collect a connection fee in lieu of an as sessment on water mains in stalled and owned by the city. City manager Robert Duff was directed to prepare a report on a request by Central Point to permit residents in the Table Rock Four Corners area to con nect with the Medford service sewer. A request from Consolidated FreighOways, 703 North Central ave., Medford, for a 20-foot ex tension to its 18 foot driveway on Jackson st. opposite Front st. was approved. The council approved a recom mendation of the city traffic de partment prohibiting parking along the north side of East Main st. for 130 feet west of the west line of Geneva st. providing for a left turn lane at Cottage st. Duff said the change will re lieve congestion and speed up Main st. traffic. A public hearing was called March 5 to consider constructing a sanitary sewer for four resi dents at the end of Fran quette ave. They previously petitioned the council for the service. City officials noted that por tion of Franquette ave. is near the proposed route of the High way 99 Hawthorne park free way as recently outlined by the state highway department. Councilman Stanley Jones said even if the council approves the sewer construction there, it would not necessarily mean the council. also will approve the proposed Bear Creek-Hawthorne park freeway. The council has not yet taken a position with re gard to the location of the free way. The council also adopted a re vised "closing out sale" ordi nance. City Attorney E. R. Ba shaw said the municipal court judge declared the old ordinance unconstitutional in its delega tion of legislative power during a recent court case. The city attorney said the re vised ordinance meets the ob jection of unconstitutionality and also is "administratively practical" where the previous cne was not. At the request of Councilman Don Hansen an amendment was added stating a "closing out sale" could not be continued at another location if the "sale" peri.ut had expired at one loca tion. The council awarded a con tract to M. C. Lininger and Sons, Medford, for the construction of 1,780-feet of eight-inch sewer line for the new $400,000 Med ford armory, now nearing com pletion. The bid was $4,787.75. There were four other higher bidders. The bid will not be effective until the city receives approval from the state military depart ment and until a check is re ceived from the department for the amount of the bid price. Duff said an Oregon National Guard official has indicated to him a check will be mailed to Medford soon. The military de partment authorized the city to contract for the work. The line will extend from the Medford armory site to a con nection with the South Bear creek sanitary district's trunk sewer lines. A petition from several prop erty owners along Barnett rd. requesting rezoning of the area to class III (limited commerical) was referred to the planning commision. Seizure of Cars 01 Drunks Proposed Salem (U.R) A measure to authorize a judge to impound the motor vehicle owned by anyone coonvicted of driving while drunk or under the in fluence of narcotics was intro duced in the Senate yesterday by Sen. Jean Lewis of Portland. The measure would authorize a judge to impound such a ve hicle for not more than 90 days for the first conviction or more than one year for'the second or subsequent convictions. Sen. Lewis said that the su spension of driver's license has not always proved effective in curbing drunken driving. She said several offenders have been found to be driving at a time when their licenses were su spended. Another Senate measure in troduced yesterday,,by Sen. An drew J. Naterlin of Newport, would increase the size of the State Highway Commission from three members to five. Under terms of the measure, not more than two of the mem bers would be from any one congressional district in Oregon. Under present law, there are three members, not more than one of who shall be from any one congressional district. WATCH WARDS 117 S. CENTRAL TONIGHT 5 to 9 Specials !
