Chamber Comm'tee Favors
Completion of Three Projects
The Medford Chamber of
Commerce highway commit
tee has asked the board of di
rectors to go on record favor
ing completion of three proj
ects in Medford which were
recommended' in 1951.
In a review of the commit
tee's activities during the
past year, C. A. Hubbard,
chairman, said the 1951 rec
ommendations were review
ed. Most of the 13 projects
which the group recommend
ed have been completed, he
said, but three remain which
should be completed in the
near future.
They are (1) extending
Highland dr. through to con
nect with Barnett rd., (2) pro
jecting Melrose st. across rail
road tracks to a line with Bar
nett rd.. and (3) continuing
West 10th st. across the rail
road tracks either by an un
derpass or overpass, which
ever is the most feasible.
The group also recommend
ed that a new committee be
appointed to make a further
study on streets which should
be extended in Medford.
At a recent meeting of the
committee, it was the "unani
mous opinion" that there is
need for a valley cross road
between the Voorhies area on
Highway 99 and the North
Phoenix rd. It was pointed out
constructed, there would be
possibility of establishing
such a route and the county
court should now take action.
According to Hubbard, such
a route would diffuse traffic
congestion conflicting with
the freeway flow at the Bar
nett interchange. The estab
lishment of a road at this
time would necessitate a free
way overpass and thus assure
a convenient cross- road
throughway to accommodate
future growth, the committee
contended.
Hubbard noted several
projects in which the high
way committee has engaged
itself over the past several
years. Many of these have not
been completed, but prelimi
nary work has been under
taken. On the Medford-Crater lake
route, the committee has ad
vocated the realignment of
the Flounce rock section of
the Crater Lake highway.
Several sharp points between
Trail and the Flounce Rock
grade were "cut off," as sug
gested by the committee. An
other contract will be let in
December to eliminate more
of these dangerous points.
To prepare for heavy' sur
facing of the Diamond Lake
highway, armor plating has
been partially completed this
year, and another contract lor
that once the freeway wasa new section is planned by
the bureau of public roads for
resurfacing.
According to the committee,
in about two or three years
if work is continued at the
present rate, the base of the
Diamond lake highway will
be completed all the way to
permit commercial traffic and
winter usage.
Also noted was the con
struction on the new route
from Lake of the Woods to
Klamath Falls. It is expected
that this route will be opened
within two years.
Construction also has been
started on the freeway
through Medford with the
contract being let from. Seven
Oaks to Jackson st. A con
tract is to be let in March for
the elevated section of the
freeway from Jackson st. to
12th st.
A contract also is expected
to be let to eliminate the traf
fic congestions originating
where the present Crater
Lake hlghwny and Crater
Lake ave. are closely parallel
north of Delta Waters rd.
Proper merging lanes and a
left-turn lane will be in
stalled. Gerald Latham, chamber
president, commended Hub
mard and the committee for
an "excellent" job this year,
and for the effectiveness of
the committee for the past
several years.
YES! We have to have ACTION on these late model A-l Used

Social Security Meets Needs of Farm People
Farm-City Week is a na-lone-third less credit for work old age or survivors benefits: Also avail
tionwide observance calling
attention to the common goals
and common needs ot farm
and city people.
In keeping with the observ
ance, Edward B. Jacobson,
district manager of the Med
ford social security office,
pointed out that social secur
ity is designed to meet the
needs of both farm and city
people.
"It wasn't always this way,"
he said. "In the beginning,
only industrial and commer
cial workers were covered by
the program. Later, self-employed
people's earnings start
ed counting toward social se
curity. At the same time, some
farm employees were also
covered. In 1955, self-employed
farmers were covered for
the first time. Now, the pro
gram is the same for farm
and non-farm people."
Additional Changes
Jacobson went on to say
that this year additional
changes were made in the so
cial security law, and it is
now better than ever. Under
the new law, botli farm and
city people will be a little
more secure, a little safer from
want because of the retire
ment, death, or disability of
the breadwinner, Jacobson
noted.
Paying the cost of this pro
gram by contributions from
their earnings, employees, and
their employers, and self
employed persons lakes care
of tomorrow's worries today.
Under the new law, many
people can now qualify for
benefits who previously could
not. This is so because the
amount of work required was
reduced. Now, approximately
under social security is need'
cd to permit the payment of
benefits on a worker's account.
Jacobson urged that any
one who has ever been denied
because of insufficient social
security credit again get in
touch with his office to see
whether he might now be eli
gible for benefits.
liable at the local
social security office is a frca
booklet explaining the recent
changes in the law. Copies
may be obtained by contact
ing the local office.
