Study of Ordinance
Relating to Fences
Continued by Group
A committee appointed by
Mayor John Snider to study the
city sign ordinance in relation
to the type of fence used by new
car dealers said it would con
tinue its study before council ac
tion Is recommended.
The study started recently
when Medford Motors started
constructing a fence similar to
other car dealers in Medford.
The company was found to be
violating a recently enacted
amendment to the building code.
The amendment makes fences
constructed prior to the amejd
ment legal but prohibits con
struction of such a fence.
In city council action last
night, the council authorized
Mayor Snider and City Recorder
Darell Huson to use facsimile
signatures. This brings the city's
use of such signatures in line
with the bank requirements.
Assessment Ordinances
Jwo assessment ordinances
were adopted by the council.
Ira D. Phipps recently sold two
sections of land on Barnett rd.
and council action was needed
to transfer assessments for water
mains to new property owners,
according to the city attorney.
Plans were adopted for street
improvement on Corona ave., to
Grand ave. and to Morrow rd.
This is part f the development
for a new elementary school in
district 549C between Grand
ave. and Morrow rd.
Action on purchasing six po
lice cars and one administration
car was postponed until Dec. 19.
City Manner Robert A. Duff
said more tudy is necessary be
fore a recommendation is made.
Several beverage license re
newals were Approved.
Bus Loading Zone
Duff reported on the bus load
ing zone on South Front st. He
said merchants between Seventh
and Eighth sts. had been con
tacted and voiced no objection- to
the zone, which was established
on a temporary basis. Since no
complains have been received
by the traffic engineer, the zone
will remain until conditions
justify its removal, he added.
The council also approved
three 30-foot driveways for a
Shell Oil station planned at
Second st. and Central ave. The
company requested two 35-foot
driveways on one side but the
council felt the 30-foot drives
would permit an additional park
ing space needed in the area.
A loading zone request was
granted American Laundry on
South Central ave. between
Seventh and Eighth sts. The
zone will take up one parking
space and have a time limit of
about five minutes.

U.S. Said Holding Up on Satellite
To Produce Arsenal of Missiles
Washington (W The United
States is holding back on any
big "jump into space" until it
has produced f an adequate
arsenal of long-range ballistic
missiles.
Deputy Assistant Defense Sec
retary William M. Holaday said
flatly this country has the
"hardware" presumably bal
listic missiles to launch large
earth satellites any time it
wanted.
But the missiles director
emphasized this would have to
take a back seat to the stock
piling of long-range missiles.
Holaday told a meeting of the
American Rocket Society in
New York Thursday night that
right now "satellites are not as
military useful as a working
dependable ballistic m i s s ile
weapon system would be."
First the Missiles
"When we are assured of an
adequate intermediate range velopments
ballistic missile capability and
an intercontinental ballistic mis
sile system with the necessary
support equipment and stock
pile of missiles, then we intend
to jump into space.
"To do so beforehand would
be like trying to lock the front
door and to let the back door
stay open," he said.
The United States failed in an
attempt today to fire a six-inch
test satellite into a globe-circling
orbit. The Soviet lAion pre
sumably with the aid of ballistic
missile power has sent up a
1,120-pound Sputnik.
Sen. Henry M. Jackson (D
Wash.) accused the Defense De
partment of handing the Rus
sians another propaganda vic
tory by its "stupidity" in an
nouncing the hour by hour fail
ure Wednesday to launch the
first American "moon."
In other missile-satellite de-
George S. Trimble, vice
president of the Martin Co.
which built the satellite-launching
Vanguard rocket, predicted
the first attempt to orbit a U.S.
satellite would fail.
Democratic National Chair
man Paul M. Butler said the
Truman administration produced
all of the 11 operational missiles
now in this country's arsenal.
He said the "failures" in the U.S.
missile program rest with Presi
dent Eisenhower.
Rear Adm. Hyman G. Rick
over urged speedy construction
of a fleet of "underwater satel
lites" atom-powered subma
rines capable of launching bal
listic missiles while surfaced or
submerged. He said the Russians
have a sub fleet five time as
large as this country.
GERMANS SEEK AGREEMENT
Bonn, Germany dpi West
German authorities have sub
mitted new proposals to seven
NATO powers in. an attempt to
conclude a status of forces agree
ment which has been in negotia
tion for more than two years, a
foreign ministry spokesman said
today. The spokesman said the
proposals were givfri tft am
bassadors of the United Slates,
Britain, France, Canada, Bel
gium, Denmark and The Nether
lands. He said the proUfcsals were
intended to speed conclusion of
an agreement which will regu
late the legal and financial posi
tion of NATO troops stationed
on German soil.

East Awaits Relief
From Snow and Cold;
Northwest Gets Rain
By UNITED PRESS
Relief was in sight today for
the East, still reeling from the
one-two punch of a violent snow
storm and a cold wave.
A vast mass of warm moist
air surging upward from the
Gulf area penetrated as far north
as the upper Great Lakes early
today, shedding warmth in its
path to the Atlantic Coast.
Temperatures Rise
The welcome invasion caused
temperatures in its direct path
to go up as much as 25 degrees,
and in some areas completely
prevented nighttime cooling.. To
the east, where only Thursday
cold records had been set in the
aftermath of Wednesday's snow
storm, a warming trend was al
ready discernible.
More than a foot of snow was
dumped by the storm at various

as Georgia and Alabama.
As of Thursday night, frigid
temperatures extended from the
southern states well into New
England, and the mercury drop
ped into the teens in parts of
Pennsylvania.
A new mass of cold air, how
ever, crossed over the Canadian
border causing 10-20 degree tem

parts of the Dakotas, as it fol

Scattered snow flurries occur

Heaviest snowfall amounts were
recorded at Craig, Colo., where
between three and four inches
fell, and about one inch fell in
Salt Lake City, Utah, and parts
of Wyoming and Idaho.
Light rain fell early today
along the Pacific Coast in Wash

French Leader Seeks
To Head Oil Crisis
Paris (IP) Premier Felix
Gaillard called political leaders
into another emergency confer
ence today to try to stop warring
socialists and conservatives from
torpedoing his month-old govern
ment. Gaillard, a Radical-Socialist,
staved off an immediate crisis at
a four-hour session Thursday
night but his broad-based coali
tion cabinet still was badly split
over fiscal policies.
The Socialists have threatened
to pull their four ministers out
of the government unless Gail
lard reverses some of his price
control measures and agrees to
a substantial boost in civil ser
vice salaries.
Conservatives have warned
that they will refuse to accept
the additional taxes1 that prob
ably would be needed to meet
the Socialist demands.
'Strip for Action
Air Officer Urges
Chicago (LP An Air Force
intelligence officer has urged
that all dependents be shipped
home from U.S. Strategic Air
Command bases overseas to let
Russia know "we are stripped
for action."
Frederick Ayer Jr., special as
sistant for intelligence to the Air
Force secretary, told newsmen
Thursday the removal of depend
ents also would eliminate the
cost of such overseas facilities as
schools and hospitals for air
men's wives and children.
Ayer labelled as a "lot of bull"
Nikita Khrushchev's statement
that missiles have made museum
pieces of airplanes.
"If Khrushchev could convince
us to scrap SAC," Ayer said,
"Russia would have accomplish
ed half its battle."
Air Force To Close

Harold Backman, controller
for the Tumpane Company, said
the company informed some 250
employees last spring that the
plant would be "phased out" by
the first of next year. Employ
ment at the station has been de
creased steadily since 1953 when
more than 700 civilians worked
handling storage of Air Force
