o G O TWELVE MEDFORD (OREGON) MAIL TRIBOTTE fondly, 9tcmbi I, 19S7 GOLD HILL City Considers Proposal o By MRS. CLYDE KELL Gold Hill The Gold Hill city council this week took under consideration proposals from two garbage disposal agencies to handle garbage collection in Gold Hill. Proposals were submitted by Pat's Sanitary Service of Grants Pass and City Sanitary Service company, Medford. No action was taken until additional legal study has been made by City Attorney Miss Noreen Kelly. The proposals were submitted after the planning commission approved a council plan to enter an agreement with a collection agency for garbage removal in Gold Hill. The council also pro posed to close the present city dump as soon as possible, ac cording to H. D. Force. The commission also favored having residents pay necessary costs for garbage diposal service. The council plans to have at the Jan. 6, 1958, meeting an ordinance covering the garbage collection plan, ' according to Ferd Jones, city recorder.

Back payments of compensa tion for service-connected disa bilities may be made to one of three different dates, S. T.

Brannock said retroactive pay ments are determined by three different sets of circumstances based on the date of application: 1. If the veteran files applica tion within a year from the date of his release from active service and if VA finds his service-connected disability was severe enough at separation to be com pensable, payment may be made retroactive to the day following his release. . 2. If the veteran files applica tion within a year from the date of his release, but his disability was not severe enough at release to be compensable, payments may not be made for periods earlier than the date the evi dence shows the disability be came severe enough to be com pensable. 3. If the veteran files his ap plication later than one year af ter release, payments may be made retroactive to the date of filing. Brannock said this does not mean there is a time limit for filing.

Tree Cutting Along Roads Prohibited Salem Persons who are be ginning to think about going in search of the family Christmas tree armed with axes are cau tioned by State Highway Engi neer W. C. Williams to look else where than on highway rights of way. The state highway department has an - ambitious landscaping program aimed at maintaining roadside beauty both by preserv ing natural growth and by plant ing and cultivating trees and shrubs. In addition to beautifying the highways, trees and shrubs often perform essential safety func tions by reducing headlight glare, acting as barriers and de lineating the edge of the highway. "Most DeODle conseipntinnclv refrain from doing anything to damage our roadsides," Wil liams said, "but the thoughtless acts of a few persons wanting Christmas trees can destroy years of growth which can be replaced only by replanting." State law prohibits cutting of trees and shrubs on right of way.
