FEBRUARY 12, 1963 Taylor Tells Roundtable What "In the past 40 years in downtown Medford, the only stores I can think of that haven't changed their location at least once are Mann's De partment store Rrd "ubP"""1' Hardware store," the chair man of the Mayor's Greater Medford Development com mittee said Monday. Speaking to the Medford Newspaper Strike Far From Settled New York (UPD New York publishers said Monday night settlement of the 67-day-old newspaper strike through the normal processes of collective bargaining may not be pos sible. In a statement issued hours after Monday's lB's hour ne gotiating session at City Hall proved fruitless, the publish ers said "a long lest of eco nomic strength" might be in the offing. Both the publishers and the striking printers union conceded they were discour aged. Mayor Robert F. Wag ner said "substantial differ ences" still separate the dis putants. The mayor dismissed the negotiators until further no tice, directing them to give him reports by today "at the latest" so he could determine his next move. ''fi'ipr'-'f Chamber of Commerce Round table luncheon at North's Chuck Wagon, Bob Taylor Epidemic of Flu In East, Midwest Washington (UPll The Pub lic Health Service said Mon day a "small scale epidemic" of Asian flu has struck at least 10 states along the east ern seaboard and in the mid west. A spokesman said the serv ice did not consider the epi demic a "really serious one" compared with the 1957 and 1000 outbreaks but it would probably spread across the country before it runs its course. The service said, however, that the United States has been lucky because the out break arrived about six weeks later than had been expected. The spokesman said the out break arrived in mid-January "and it usually peters out pretty fast in March." The spokesman said there has been "no spectacular gen eral rise" in the number of verified cases of the so-called Asian strain of influenza but said "there's a lot of sickness. There's, no doubt about that." Health officials in Portland said no Asian flu virus has been isolated in Oregon, V MM chanel no. 5 for the purse Perfume at her fingertips with the most treasured name in fragrances.

MEDFOHD cited a long list of the firms in the core area that have engaged in a "constant shuttle from one place to another." He mentioned more than 20 different business locations and the changes that have taken place there. "If some one 40 years ago had said these changes would take place, who would have be lieved him?" Taylor asked. The speaker reviewed the past to establish one point: If these changes have taken place, it is logical to expect that there will be many changes in the future, too. Taylor urged his audience to accept the necessity of change and to prepare for it. "We have one advantage our predecessors didn't have," he said. "We recognize that' the city will grow. We have a chance to develop a master plan so that the changes we want can be accomplished." Investment Banker Succumbs at Portland Portland - (UPll - George Mc Faul, 66, an investment bank er who was president of the Oregon Association of the Amateur Athletic Union (AAU) in 1951, died Sunday at his home. McFaul was active in Boy Scout work. Survivors include the wid ow, Ada, and a son, George McFaul Jr. TO YOUR VALENTINE FROM YOU AND MANN'S... MAIL TRIBUNE, MEDFCRD. OREGON Development Committee Plans He said the first thing his committee plans to do is to make a survey of the firms in the downtown area in an effort to answer several ques tions: What businesses plan to stay where they are? What buildings are own ed by non-Mcdford residents? When Leases Expire When do the leases expire on certain downtown build ings? Are the owners willing to remodel to accommodate present or future tenants? (Taylor said there were two buildings in the heart of the downtown district with a ter mite problem. When the prop erty owner was told of the termites, he refused to do any thing about it, the speaker stated.) After the committee has analyzed its collected data, Taylor said he felt a profes sional consultant should be hired to advise and guide the group in its efforts to rejuve nate the downtown business district. "Our job would then be to inform the public of what needed to be done,' he said. Criticizes Attitude Taylor criticized the atti tude of some downtown busi nessmen. "They spend their time looking for grcene" pas tures," he said, "instead of working to improve the place where they are." i.

The newly appointed chair man, a long-time Portland res ident, has been featured in many national magazines as a writer, but is probably best known for her two recent books, '"I Hate to Cook Book" and "I Hate to Housekeep Book." The Easter seal sale will be held March 7 to April 14. Returns from the sale of Easter seals are used to fi nance all of the society's op erations, including the Chil dren's hospital school in Fu gene; Camp Easter seal on the Oregon coast, the state's only summer camp for the exclu sive use of crippled children and young adults and two mobile therapy clinics, which lake physical therapy to areas of the state where it is not now available. 1.00 pr. ft . business climate unless the employers first train their employees in the basic tech niques of salesmanship. Taylor stressed that one of the most important aspects of good selling is courteous treatment of the customer. "What the salesman does to the customer," he said, "is what the customer thinks you - the employer - are." He told the Roundtable the downtown businessman should not worry about competing with shopping centers; they should make the shopping cen ters worry about competing with them.
