I Increased pollution of the river by industrial wastes has ; been noted recently, according I to Abel. The movement, which began at lllahe and in the Gold Beach area, has now spread throughout the Rogue basin. The petitioners also are ask ing that existing laws be strengthened, and that a reg ulation be placed on the re leasing of backed up sand and silt by the dams on the Rogue. The petitioners have been assured by Robert . Duncan, speaker of the Oregon House of Representatives, that if the petitions are in Salem before ttip nnPnino nt tho .lannaru ! session thp tnatlpr will hp brought before the House. Causes of Muddiness Muddiness of the river ap pears to be due partly to the Bear creek road work and partly to some cleanup prac tices at Jackson county stor age lakes, Abe' said. He added that the stream pollution affected many fish ing resort owners, whose cli entele is primarily of the ad vance reservation class. These owners have suffered econom ic losses when forced to make refunds or cancel reservations because the water has become too muddy for fishing. Speaking for the Grants Pass city filtration plant, Abel said that the condition of the river has made it necessary to increase chemical use by two thirds over the normal amount in order to maintain the purity standard in the city water system. Petitions are available in sporting goods stores in both Jackson and Josephine coun ties. Anyone eligible to buy an adult fishing license is eli gible to sign, including out-of-state fishermen.

MEDFORD Illness of Pope Stirs Speculation Over Successor Rome lUPIl - The recent ill j ness of Pope John XXI11 has ; stirred speculation over his possible successor. The Pope is 81 years old and suffering from stomach trouble and anemia. His own words undoubtedly helped raise questions of who will take his place when he told a public audience: "One year is not a long time. 1 may not be here, but it I'm not, there certainly will be another pope." He was talking on that oc casion about the work of the Ecumenical Council, whose first session ended Dec. 11 with plans to reconvene next September. Even were the Pontiff not known to be ill there would be a certain amount of pecu lation about a successor. There always is, at the Vatican. Usually Wrong If precedent is to be ac cepted, the speculation is usu ally wrong. When Pius XII died in 1958 there was no one who guessed his succes sor would be Angelo Giuseppe Roncalli, the rotund, jovial patriarch of Venice ho now calls himself John. The only certainty in the naming of a new po is that the members of the Sacred College ot Cardinals - num bering 85 at present - will elect him at a secret conclave. There are a few other "rules'' handed down by tradition, but they can be broken at any time. The longest standing "rule" is that a pope be Italian. There has not been a non Italian pontiff since Hadrian VI of Utrerht. Holli id, who reigned from Jan. 9, 1522, to - Giv. , truly Precious Gift ... Buy . V 'fetf T5E MAIL TRIBUNE. MEDFORD, Sept. 14, 1523. And even then' the Romans objected so ve-1 hentently against not having j one of their own as pope that they rioted in the streets in ! protest, stoning the cardinals j who elected Hadrian. Centers Around Four i Current speculation on who I might be the next pope cen ters around four men. They are: - Giovanni Battista Car dinal Montini, the 65-year-old "liberal" archbishop of Milan. - - Peter Gregory Cardinal Agagianian, the Armenian born head of the Sacred Con gregation for the Propagatio ie Faiom. - Giovanni Cardinal Ur bani, 61-year-old patriarch of Venice. - Giaconio Cardinal Ler caro, the popular, Communist battling archbishop of Bo logna. Cardinal Montini is regard ed as the "favorite." Pope John has made it clear unof ficially that he would like Montini to be his successor. However, this has no certain influence when ttie doors to the frescoed Sistine Chapel close on the conclave and the cardinals get down to the business of voting for the next pontiff.
