Subdivision Problems Subject Of Irrigation Board Meeting Subdivision problems re lated to irrigation consumed most of the Medfuid Irriga tion district board's time at yesterday afternoon's special meeting. After approximately three hours' discussion with repre sentatives of the Leever Whalin subdivision on Mur phy rd. near the Rogue Val ley Country club golf course the board was no closer to solution of a drainage chan nel problem. Solutions Offered The major questions were who will maintain the chan nel and who will assume lia bility for property damage done if the channel should greyhound GETS YOU PORTLAND ' " iy" l-l'f'q jJsiS U I !

Solutions offered by the board were platting by metes and bounds. The boundaries would be established by natural or ar tificial monuments as distin guished from beginning at a fixed starting point and run ning by compass directions. Or, the subdividers could agree to pay the cost of any suit brought against the dis trict in case of channel flood ing providing the district could prove its operations are not at fault. Subdividers and Realtors Don Whalin and Bill Leevcr said the new channel financed no extra fare. For example: Chicago, III. $58.30 New York, N.Y $84.10 212 No. Bartlert 772-2202 emorial Daw BUS SERVICE by their company should be deep enough and fairly easy to maintain to prevent easy flooding. Responsibility for channel maintenance has not been agreed to, however. MID Attorney Philip B. Lowry ad vised that the district's rights might not apply to the new channel since it is man made. Another solution o f I e red was to leave out the 10 lots down channel which could be flooded. Have Been Notified Director Paul Culbertson said the Jackson county plan ning commission and subdi viders in the area have been notified of the district s posi tion on drainage channels. The subdividers agreed to a three-foot easement, prefer ably across the back of the lots, to give access to irriga tion if the landowners want to make the connection. Director Gene Cameron said he felt the new channel was deep enough and the up per section of it clean enough so the district's liability would not be too great. The too restrictive covenant drawn up with the subdividers start ed the whole problem, he re marked. The same problems have been discussed at length during four meetings and were not settled when the subdividers left last night. Some observers feci the problem arose when one di rector signed the subdivision plat outside of an official board meeting with the er roneous understanding the city of Medford would main tain the channel. However, city officials assert this is against an established policy. Would Not Sign Plat MID Board Chairman Al bert Hueners informed Man ville Heiscl, attorney for sub divider Edward Stevens the board would not sign another plat for the Hacienda sub division in Phoenix until Ste vens agrees to install a $400 water meter. Heiscl argued that Stevens has already laid irrigation pipe to provide water for residents of the original plat as agreed to earlier. Earlier the board had re fused to sign the new plat until Stevens had installed the pipe. However, Heiscl late yesterday afternoon talked only to Hueners. He is sched uled for an appearance at the June meeting since the board's busy agenda prevented his ap pearance this time. Earlier in the meeting, Cul bertson said a resolution as part of the Oct. 9, 1959, board minutes require the district to provide water on a con tinuous flow basis and the subdivider is required to establish a meter so it can be determined there is an equitable distribution of water among all water users, it was pointed out. u p I t i '1 i -r V MEDFORD Dennis the Menace M10M, COULD IVe'RB HFED OBITUARIES WILLA R.

OREGON Russia Dismisses Deputy Minister on Corruption Charges Moscow - 1UPD - The dismis-, bers, identified as Karnaukov sal of First Deputy Minister and Kudryatscv, "showed Dmitry D. Korolyev from the Russian Republic Ministry of Trade on charges of corrup tion and participation in sex parties was disclosed today. The newspaper "Soviet Trade" also reported the ar rest of another ministry of ficial, Isai Fliorent, chief of the economic department, and the dismissal of his accom plice, Konslantin Kozlovsky, the ministry's party secretary.

Sought Trad Job The Soviet news agency Tass reported last July 25 the execution of 16 persons, in cluding the former section chief of the Soviet Finance Ministry K. T. Degtyarev, for bribery and embezzlement. "Soviet Trade" claimed the latest affair centered around Korolyev's attempts to secure a trade job for an alleged big time embezzler, Joseph Klcm pert. K I e m p c r t's name was brough up in January by the newspaper "Trud" for amass ing large sums of money and acquiring a "mansion" in one of the old quarters of Moscow called the Arbat. Two Show Firmness "Soviet Trade" claimed that Korolyev, Fliorent and Koz lovsky all had tried to exert influence on various trade of ficials in the Russian republic but were refused on grounds that Klempert, a historian by profession, was not qualified to hold down a trade job.

Federal mediators sched uled meetings here between employers and two big unions, Lumber and Sawmill Work ers and the International Woodworkers of America.
