Medford Policy Draws Praise In Talk Portland -flJPD- The Leeis- lative Interim Committee on Local Government has recom mended legislation that will give local units of government one more chance to cooper ate," State Rep. Edward Whe- lan (D-Portland) said Friday. In a speech to the City club here, the committee chairman said local taxing districts have grown into an almost intoler able hodge-podge. He said city dwellers, especially in Port land, are paying an unfair share of service costs in fringe areas. Medford has taken the right course by refusing to provide any services outside the city limits, Whelan contended. 1 One proposed lnw would prohibit incorporation of any new cities within six miles of present city of 5,000 or more people and within three miles of a smaller incorporated city. Whelan said such a law would prevent the device of incor- porating to escape annexation.
