Josephine Court Favors New Road Grants Pass The Jo sephine county court last week passed a resolution di rected to the state highway department asking the com mission to recommend a road from Selma to Gold Beach be made a part of the fed eral forest highway system. The road has been pro posed by the forest service from Selma in the Illinois valley to Gold Beach by way of the Illinois and Rogue riv er canyons and the town of Agness. The resolution pointed out that a natural water grade exists on the route from Gold Beach on Highway 101 up stream along the Rogue river to Agness, thence up the Illi nois river to Selma on the Redwood highway. The road would serve as an access road to milllions of board feet of timber, for fire protection and harvest and would serve to open up min ing as well as desirable re creation areas and a facility for national defense. The Curry county court re cently passed a similar reso lution, which also pointed out that Curry country is practic ally without roads except for Highway 101. The proposal is the same as one made by Rep. Charles O. Porter, which has received some recogni tion by forest service officials. SAVE CASH & CARRY PABCO 3-tab roofing $8.90 sq.

MEDFORD FUEL SP 3-2111 Publisher Says '58 Good Business Year Roseburg Roch Bradshaw, publisher of Crow's Lumber Digest, said Friday the gen eral public is likely to upset the business forecasters' apple cart in 1958, boosting lumber and housing. to higher levels than most economists expect. Bradshaw spoke at a meet ing of the-Umpqua chapter, Society of American Forest ers. 1 He said public highway building will be stepped up, and the defense budget will be boosted sharply, both of which will stimulate all busi ness. He added that public excitement over the Russian situation could easily "gener ate something like a war psy chology, and this could lead the people to go on a buying binge through fear of short ages." Bradshaw . urged that rein ventories of public timber be speeded up so the industry and people will know the real extent of the basic resource on which northwest business and jobs depend. lone Man Named Moro County Judge Heppner, Ore.

Congress Is Aim Of GOP Campaign Washington (IP) Presi dent Eisenhower will lead the Republican party tonight in the official kickoff of an uphill GOP campaign to re capture control of Congress. Starting his sixth year in the White House, the Presi dent will speak from a dinner at Chicago, Vice President Richard M. Nixon from New York, and other party big wigs at cities throughout the country. The occasion will be the fifth anniversary of Mr. Ei senhower's first inauguration. The purpose will be to raise money for the 1958 campaign in which all 435 house seats and 32 of the 96 senate seats will be at stake. With the presidency not at stake this year, Republican chances of winning control of congress look even more bleak than in 1956. Present lineups show 232 Democrats, 197 Republicans and six vacancies in the House, and 49 Democrats, 46 Republicans and one vacancy in the Senate, the latter caused today by the death of Matthew M. Neely (D-W. Va.). Historically, the party hold ing the White House normal ly loses seats in elections like thjs one in the middle of a presidential term. Usually realistic Democrats are predicting pickups rang ing from healthy gains to landslide victories. Pvt.

Monday, January 20, 19S8 MEDFORD (OREGON) MAIL TRIBUNE SEVEN Railroad Relief Needed Florida Senator Says Washington OPi Sen, George A. Smathers (D-Fla.), says Congress must grant some relief to the nation's hard-hit railroads and "the time for constructive action is now." A Senate commerce sub committee headed by Smath ers was in recess Saturday after hearing a score of rail road officials testify during the ptst week on the "deter iorating railroad situation." Before recessing the hear ings Friday, Smathers said the testimony indicated that the railways, once the back bont of American transporta tion, "have lost all of their pre-eminence, some of their importance, and most, if not all, of their profits." "Attention by the congress looking toward relief of at least some of the pressures and restrictions of the rail roads is imperative," Smath ers said. Apparently Wall Street be lieved the Senate hearings meant something would be done. On the New York Stock market this week, rail stocks registered their widest gain in more than two years. Postmaster General Arthur E. Summerfield struck back at testimony that inadequate mail payments contributed to the railroads' financial woes. He wrote Smathers that "the real causes of declining mail payments have been the abandonment of lines by the railroads, and excessive rates which have forced the trans fer of mail to trucks."
