ASHLAND AIRPORT Plans are in the
air for development of the Ashland airport.
Extension of the runway an additional 500
feet and widening It 50 feet are possible de
velopments. The present runway is 2,670
feet long and 50 feet wide. Acquisition of
land is the major problem in developing the
facility. Sumner Parker, of Ashland, owns
and operates the airport, in the center of the

Increase in Savings Reported
New York-An upsurge in
savings has been noted in
Jackson county.
Residents have been put
ting an unusually large pro
portion of their available cash
into bank deposits and into
other forms of savings In the
last two years.
The upsurge is noted in fig
ures released by the Federal
Reserve system In lis bien
nial report. It lists amounts
on deposits in Jackson coun
ty, as well as in every other
county in the United States,
as of June 15, 1960, approxi
mately the beginning of the
current fiscal year.
The combined eteposils in
Jackson county's savings and
commercial banks came to
$64,347,300.

(checking accounts) of individ
uals, partnerships and corpo
rations as well as certain gov
ernmental and interbank de
posits. The savings portion of it
amounted to $22,846,300, ac
cording to the Federal Re
serve report. That compares
with a savings volume of $21,
283,000 in Jackson county
banks when the previous sur
vey was made, two years be
fore. It represents a growtli In
bank savings in the county of
7.3 per cent in the period.
Rise is Greater
The rise in the Mcdfurd
area was greater than in most
parts of the Pacific states,
where it. averaged 5.8 per
cent. In the stale of Oregon it
was 6 per cent.
The commerce department
estimates that Americans
were setting aside in some
form of savings about 8.2
cents out of every dollar of
after-tax income they receiv
ed during the third quarter of
1960. That was the highest
rate of saving since the 1958
recession, it says.
What is the effect on the
economy of this cautious atti
tude on the part of consum
ers? The analysts see both
good and bad in it.
Reducing Debts
They point out that the
people who are stashing away
money in the bank are also
engaged in reducing their out
standing debt. They will be in
a better position, as a result,
to buy that new car or that
new refrigerator when the re
cession ends. However, at (he
present time, their cautious
spending is cutting into re
tall volume.
On the plus side is the fact
that the more money that Is
put away in banks, savings
and loan associations and oth
er financial institutions the
more there will be available
for mortgages and for other
capital investments needed for
business growth.
Seminar Set lor
Organized Labor
Klamath Falls - A seminar
for organized labor on the sub
ject of the Labor-Management
Reporting and Disclosure Act
of 1959 the Landrum-Griffin
law-will be held March 8 on
the Oregon Technical Insti
tute campus here.
Winston D. Purvine, direc
tor of Oregon Technical Insti
tute, said labor groups have
indicated they will assist with
arrangements in cosponsoring
the seminar.
The seminar will be con
ducted by two U. S. depart-
Ashland - The Ashland
Chamber of Commerce has
gone on record as supporting
many proposed projects in
and around the city.
It is supporting possible de
velopment of a boating re
gatta on Emigrant lake; de
velopment of a Mt. Ashland
ski resort, and is urging de
velopment of picnic areas in
the vicinity.
The chamber is also sup
porting development of the
Ashland aifport into what
President Archie Fries Jr., I
terms "a first class small plane '
port." j
Originally the chamber in- j
vestigated possible develop
ment of the present airport
into an installation that could
accommodate large passenger
planes. However, Fries said
the federal aeronautics admin
istration advised against such
a Dlan because of comnlica-
tions presented by mountain-
ous terrain on one side of the
city.
FAA Recommendation
Fries then said the FAA
had recommended extending
the present runway an addi
tional 500 feet for develop
ment into a first class small
airport. The runway would be
widened an additional 50 feet,
he said.
Fries' report was presented
in January, Since that time,
the chamber airport commit
tee has been busily investi
gating what can be done with
the present facility.
It is owned by Sumner Par
ker. He has an agreement with
the city whereby they pro
vide a limited amount of
maintenance of the runway.
On occasion, gravel is hauled
in. . .
Parker operates the airport.
He lives about three minutes
away on a farm.- He has been
flying since 1927, and likes
to tell of taking flying lessons
in 1927 from Tex Rankin,
world champion stunt flier of
many years ago. Parker
bought his first plane in 1929,
and flew it off of a hay field,
now the Ashland airport.
Hangar Constructed
He had a hangar construct
ed a short distance, from his
house. In 1951 the present
runway was installed by Par
ker. Crushed rock had been
donated earlier by Earl Lin
ingcr. -
There are four hangars at
the airport currently. Parker
owns two and private individ
uals owh the other twoi The
runway is 2,670 feet long,
and 50 feet wide. ;
Parker is enthusiastic about-
developing the airport. The
one stumbling Slock .to run
way expansion is land. It will
be virtually impossible to ex
tend the south end. Dead In
dian rd. is a few feet from
the end of the runway. Par
ker doesn't own land on the
north end.
Used as Home Base
Parker says there are 11 or
12 planes presently using the
airport as a home base. He
points out that this number
could increase if facilities
were improved. He also is op
timistic about the use the air
port would receive during
times that the Medford air
port is fogged in. People com
ing to the Shakespearean fes
tival also might use the air
port, he says.
Ashland is in the center of
present and potential recrea
tion areas. Emigrant lake res
ervoir is a short distance away '
and Mt. Ashland will be close j
if a ski resort is developed j
there.
Response Fantastic j
This is what has attracted j
the chamber of commerce's
interest. Whitland Locke,
chairman of the chamber air
port committee, says response
to the idea of developing the
airport has been fantastic.
The Oregon Pilots association
has endorsed the plan, accord
ing to Locke.
He says the state board of
aeronautics has offered to
help In any way possible.
Locke has visions of a combi-1
nation airport and motor ho-'
tel being constructed near the
site. He says the new Highway
99 freeway may be near the
airport.
The chamber is hopeful the ,
airport can be developed.
Sumner Parker is hopeful it
can be developed. Whether or
not it will remains to be seen.
