The emergency authoriza tion bill was sent to the White House despite a drafting flaw in one part of the measure which read "Section 9" in stead of "Section 3." The Sen ate by a 38-30 vote refused to correct the flaw because this would have endangered final passage. It also blocked other efforts to alter the bill. Any change would have returned the measure to the House where it might have died in the ad journment rush. Jobi Said Inadequate Republicans charged the bill would give President Ken nedy a political slush fund and claimed it would not provide nearly enough jobs to cure the nation's unemployment prob lem. ' In an unusual move, the Senate went on record as agreeing that the bill should be "administered on a basis that will be free of any par tisan favoritism" by any gov ernment agency. The proposal was made by Sen. Robert S. Kerr (D-Okla.), manager of the bill, despite a protest by Senate! Democratic whip Hubert H. Humphrey, Minn., that there was nothing to indicate the Democrats had handled such programs to their own advantage. Funds Matched Locally The bill would authorize federal outlays, to be matched locally, for a variety of civil projects in areas of substan tial joblessness. More than 1,065 economically distressed areas in all 50 states would be eligible. The bill merely authorizes the outlays, however, Con gress must approve a separate appropriation bill providing the actual cash. Kennedy originally asked for standby authority to spend up to SI billion on works projects through backdoor financing, without further authorization from Congress.

'The primary mission of the city police department is to bring the finest law enforce ment possible to the citizens of Medford," Chief of Police Charles P. Champlin said Mon day. Speaking to a luncheon meeting of the Chamber of Commerce Roundtable, Cham plin outlined the organization and operation of the police de partment which he heads. He distributed an organiza tion chart to the Roundtable members, showing that the de partment, with a total com plement of 46 persons, is di vided into three divisions: pa trol, services and detective. The duty of the patrol divi sion is to handle all traffic, personnel and training, war rants, juvenile and investiga tion work. In order to have officers on duty at any hour of the day or night, the divi sion is divided into three pla toons, each commanded by a lieutenant. The first platoon, with duty hours from midnight to 8 a.m., is composed of nine officers; the second platoon, which works from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m., has a complement of 11 offi cers, two of whom are respon sible for parking meter en forcement; and the third pla toon, with a force of 10 offi cers, is on duty from 4 p.m. until midnight. Services Division The services division, head ed by a lieutenant in charge of 10 other persons, is respon sible for the police station, equipment, complaints, rec ords, identification, the city jail, communications and mis cellaneous properties. Investigation of major crimes and vice in Medford is the responsibility of the de tective division, which is staffed by one lieutenant and three plain-clothes detectives. All division heads are di rectly responsible to the Estimated 279,875 Saw Oregon Fair Sale'm-OJPD-This year's Ore gon Slate Fair drew an esti mated 279,875 people, fair of ficials said at the close of the show Saturday night. The estimated attendance last year was 313,000. While the rest of the fair suffered, attendance and bet ting at the fair's eight-day horse racing meet set new marks. The races drew 24.612 this year and the mutuel ma chines handled $1,090,624, the highest ever recorded in an eight-day meet here. Last year's figures were $1,036,522 with an attendance of 16,418. Earlier Saturday. Fair Man ager Howard Maple said he may seek a television person ality who appeals to children to head the stage show next year. No figures were avail able Saturday, but Maple said attendance was sagging badly at this year's revue, head lined by Gordon MacRae. The revue was held in the new Armory-Auditorium at the fairgrounds this year, in stead of on a stage on the racetrack infield, as in previ ous years. Paula H. - We are invaded by grandparents. Mrs. L. H. - Our grandchil dren are lucky to have us around. Paula H. - Tom and I have been married ten years and have four children, including a 7-month-old baby. It hap pens that the grandparents, bless all four of them, live nearby. This means that one or several of them turn up at our home every day. While we appreciate having such young, willing and able parents, we lament our lost privacy. Up to two years ago we lived quietly in a small factory-town. But now our home feels like Grand Central Station. We have little to say about who comes and goes. And the children are all mixed up and spoiled. Why can't they find some other interest in life besides us? If we can't work out some sort of visiting etiquette, there'll be a big blowup with them. Either they'll leave us alone or we'll move to Alaska! e Mrs. L.H. - I'll speak for all four of us. Tom and Paula grew up in this neighborhood and the families are close friends. To hear my daughter-in-law's complaint comes as something of a shock. She was glad to have my husband and me around dur ing her last confinement. Her own parents were upstate visiting their other daughter. And she and Tom have never had to pay a penny for baby sitters. They come and go like teenagers, thanks to our help. We try to make things easy. Paula's mother brings a ready cooked dinner over every few days. I handle the mending. And the grandpas are drawn to those darling kids like nails to magnets. Naturally they bring along toys and treats, or take the boys to the movies. That's not spoiling them. It's loving, and how can chil dren get too much love? Th Council: Grandparents can be one of life's greatest blessings to a child. Often they account for the fine shape in which he emerges from chil- hood, despite handicaps which might floor the grandparent- less. But too much of any thing, however well-meaning, can be oppressive. What the Hi, junior and senior, need is a set ot "ground rules" for fair play between the generations. One round-table session of blunt talk would help, although a skilled outsider - someone like the family clergyman or a guidance counselor ought to be present to sort out the constructive ideas from the lazy, sentimental ones. Random dropping-in will be stopped. Visits will be spaced and timed, and - to keep ex citement and distraction to a minimum - limited to one set of grandparents at a time. The older folks will be reminded that Tom's and Paula's chil dren are not playthings for their idle moments. They must cast about for other di versions to fill their lives. Above all, these young par ents must be respected, de ferred to and recognized as the ones In charge of the chil dren. It Is lo them that the children, as well as the grand parents, must turn for de cisions on family treats, out ing: lucky stars for the treasure of so much love on tap. And many whose parents have passed on, or are not so in terested and available, will envy this pair - and their children - this unusual jack pot of affection. (Copyright 1962.

Some 159 cases were invest igated by the department last month, as compared with 108 in August 1961 and 99 dur ing August 1960. Most of the increase was due to a jump in the number of thefts in the city last month, most of them under S50 in value. There were 62 cases of such thefts in August 1961, while the figure rose to 93 last month. "The unusual increase is primarily due to the influx of transients into the area during this time of yeof," Chief of Police Charles P. Champlin said. "Such violations as shop lifting always increase in the fall." A total of 3,055 miscellan eous offenses, ranging from forgery to parking violations, were also investigated by the department. Several of these categories also showed some increase over the same month last year, the report showed. Among the categories which indicated a decrease was violations for drunken ness. There were 59 arrests last month as compared with 67 in August 1961. Some 77 vehicle accidents were reported last month, in which 15 persons were in jured. No fatalities were re corded. About 2.202 parking meter tickets were issued dur ing the month, as compared with 3,674 for August 1961. Under the traffic citation category, the report showed that violation of basic rule led all other violations, with 106 being issued. Failure to stop at a sign or signal fol lowed with 72 citations. Contract Awarded To Build Camp Site Donald Schofield, Medford district manager for the bu reau of land management, an nounced today that the con irant for construction of RLM's Surveyor recreation site was awarded to Asphalt Paving company, Klamath Falls. The low bid was $7,000. Schofield said this is one of several recreation develop ments already built or plan ned for construction in the Medford district as a part of the bureau of land manage ment recreational program. The Surveyor site is the first one to be constructed in the eastern portion of the district. Construction will in clude one-half mile of road and several spaces for tenting and trailer parking, Schofield said. 1 The site is at the foot of Surveyor Peak, about midway on the Keno road which con nects the Dead Indian and Greensorings highways, he said.

"There is only one di rection it can go," the speaker said, "and that is upwards." $12.71 Per Capita Budget - Champlin admitted the budget total seemed high, but he pointed out that - estimat ing a population in Medford of 26,000 - it breaks down to about $12.71 per capita. This places Medford in the lower middle category nationally, he said, noting that some cities run as high as $22 per capita i and some as low as $9. Champlin added that 50 cents of the Medford per capi ta cost is expended in the nan- them with meals and medical care. Total budget item for this aspect of the department's operation is $13,000. In a discussion period after his talk, Champlin admitted that the turnover in depart- quiremcnls, the recruit then idling of prisoners, providing undergoes a numoer oi train ing programs to develop and increase his efficiency. In ad dition to certain study work, Champlin stressed, the recruit is given training in first aid, fire-arms and other aspects of t h e departments operation. He is also enrolled in an an nual two-weeks police train ing school at Carnp Withy- combe during September which five Medford officers are currently attending. A 15 -minute, in-service training program is continu ously carried on each morn ing, and six times a year, the entire department participates in fire-arm practice at the de partment's firing range in the vicinity of White City. All per sonnel are encouraged to en roll in night adult education classes, with such courses as public speaking and photogra phy receiving particular em phasis. While the department Is "constantly alert to economy," Champlin said, the current fis cal budget is $330,567, and is ment personnel has increased in recent years. He attributed the fact to the pay scale. Salary Scale "Our presem salaries are simply not adequate to attract and hold the kind of personnel we want and must have," ha said. Top pay for a patrolman with three years experience is $450 a month, an increase ot $30 over last year's salary. But, Champlin said he had sought to have the pay in creased to $490 a month in this year's budget, and that the current salary is a com promise figure. Champlin said, however, ha "was satisfied" with the cali bre of personnel he has been able to hire recently. "I'm amazed that we ara able to do as well as we do with what we have to offer In terms of salary," he said.
