The morning session opened at 10 o'clock with Mrs. Alice Olsen Maxwell, general field represen tative of western Oregon, lead ing the discussion, "Red Cross Services to the Civilian Popula tion." Davis Talks This was followed by the topic, "Red Cross- Services to the Armed Forces,'! led by Jos eph A. Laux, field director of the American Red Cross sta tioned at Camp White, Medford. Highlight of the session was the address given by Olin W. Davis, assistant national direc tor, Washington D. C, who spoke following luncheon in the Pelican party room where more than SO persons gathered. Davis announced that the staggering sum of $125,000,000 would be next year's goal of the Red Cross, largest single goal ever set by the organization. Of this amount $60,000,000 will be used In service to the armed forces. The figure also includes chapter budgets, Davis said. Plasma Program Davis used a typical American soldier to illustrate the services of the Red Cross in war time. He stressed the needs of the surgical dressings project in which Klam ath women have become vitally interested, and said that 275, 000,000 dressings would be need ed this coming year. Another phase which interest ed listeners was Davis' statement in regard to blood plasma. The director of fund raising used the recent Boston fire as an example of life saving where blood plas ma was available, and said that by July 1, 1943, two and one half million pints of blood would be needed to serve this coun try's armed forces. Campaign Discussed Tribute was paid by Davis to various agencies of the Red Cross and he urged that home service programs be carried out at all times. : The war fund campaign was discussed by Anne Carter, case work supervisor, disaster service in the Pacific area, and the pro gram ended with the war fund publicity.

Morse is in Denver aiding to set up one of the' 12 regional boards planned by the WLB. , "The public also is tired of economic pressure to settle dis putes between labor and indus try,' he said. "These regional boards seem to be the best way of answering this public de mand." Morse added that the new boards would speed action on labor-industry disputes and place such matters in the hands- of board members who are familiar with local conditions. He predicted the regional la bor set-up would continue to operate after the war. Courthouse Records .. THURSDAY Decree ' Dorothy Gretchen Reed versus Louis Benford Reed. Divorce granted.

The National Foundation for Infantile Paralysis made grants and appropriations totaling SI, 152,191.17 during its last fiscal year. One of the outstanding pieces of work it has done dur ing the last year was to author ize a large grant to the Univer sity of Minnesota to help spon sor the work of Sister Kenny. As a result of her work there she has proven to the medical profession that her method of treatment was a definite forward step and also assisted in training many nurses and doctors in her method so that knowledge of how to apply them may reach the entire country. Many other universities and hospitals over the country have received gen erous grants to assist In re search and treatment. The foundation was organ ized on January 3, 1938, under the laws of the state of New York. It is a non-profit mem bership corporation. It has no connection with any other or ganizations except its own local chapters and the committee for the celebration of the President's birthday which is its fund-raising agency. Some confusion has arisen in the minds of the public as to the relationship between Georgia Warm . Springs foundation, founded in 1927, and the Na tional Foundation for Infantile Paralysis Inc., organized in 1938. These, two foundations are en tirely separate and distinct. The former one conducts an institu tion for the treatment of chil dren and adults who are suffer ing from the after-effects of in fantile paralysis. . The National Foundation for Infantile Paralysis attacks . the whole problem through virus re search, after-effects research, epidemic study and aid, and edu cation. Since . 1937, Georgia Warm Springs foundation has re ceived no part of the proceeds of any birthday celebration. The Klamath Falls committee is sponsoring a dance at the Klamath Falls armory on Satur day, January 30, to aid in the fund campaign. If you do not at tend; the' dance, we hope you will nevertheless send in your dollar, or dollars, officials said today.

SAVE UP TO 50 ON 'FINEST FURS "fun for the Woman by a Woman" 719 MAIN LOHGX TAXATION CITY ELECTRIC SYSTEMS EYED By PAUL W. HARVEY Jr. SALEM, Jan. 28 (P) Lane county s senate and house acie cations announced today they are introducing a bill in tho house to force municipal- elec tric systems to pay property taxes on the same basis as privately-owned systems. The bill would have its prin cipal effect on the city of Eu gene, which operates the largest municipally owned system In the state and whose electric rates are among the nation s lowest . It also would affect Forest Grove, McMinnvllle, Cascade Locks, Canby and Monmouth, all of which operate their own pow er systems. Equitable Tax Rep. Earl Hill, Cushman, speaking in behalf of the Lane county delegation, said: "We believe In equitable taxes on all property. In order to be fair, all property should con tribute to the cost of govern ment. Peoples utility districts, rural electrification projects and private companies all contribute their share, so we feel that the city systems also should." Hill said that inasmuch as one of the main arguments against municipal ownership is that city systems don't pay their share of the tax burden, cities can squelch this argument ' by paying their share. The bill to make corporation income taxes, apply to utilities, which Governor Snell hopes will enable old age pension increases to $40 monthly, exempts mu nicipal systems, but applies to Milk Bill Tabled Snell's legal adviser, Wllber Henderson, said he believes it is unconstitutional -to levy any tax against municipal systems. - Sen. Thomas R. Mahoney, Portland, had the senate table his bill to transfer the functions of the milk control board to the department of agriculture. Gov ernor Snell is for the bill, but Mahoney now plans to introduce a new bill which would abolish milk control entirely. SALEM, Jan. 28 '(P) Still seeking information to enable it to draft a comprehensive tax program, the house taxation and revenue committee turned its at tention today to Governor Snell's prorosal to create a reserve fund out of surplus tax revenues. The fund would be used eith er for war emergencies, or to reduce property taxes after the war. The committee last night Products company in Lebanon and AFL employes, centering on the laying off of 225 workers, which the union said was done arbitrarily and the company contended was caused by a short age of logs . . .

Flshor assert that Gov ernor Snell's plan to levy the corporation income tax against public utilities would not raise enough revenua to raise the aver age old ago pension payment to $40 a month. Such a tax, which Snell said would be sufficient to pay the larger pensions, would raise only $500,000 a year. SALEM, Jan. 28 () Sen, W. H. Strayor, Baker democrat and dean of tho legislature, said today he is drafting two bills to cancel state Income tax col lections on incomes earned in 1043 and 1044, and to repeal the measure passed by tho voters last November, to give surplus In come tax revenues to schools. Straycr said that Income tax surpluses which will have ac cumulated this year probably would be sufficient to enuble the state to operate for two more years. Straycr termed tho school sur plus bill a "fraud on tho people," asserting it was misrepresented to them. ' SALEM, Jan. '28 () A bill to Increase the minimum salaries of teachers from $85 a month to $1332 for a school year was introduced in the house today on behalf of the Oregon Stato Teachers association. SALEM, Jan. 28 (IP) The house passed and sent to tho senate today a memorial peti tioning congress to provide reim bursement to counties for funds lost through removal of land from tax rolls by federal pur chase. . GAS RATION BOOKS Gasoline ration books are not transferred with tho sale of an automobile, the state OPA re minded motorists today. Within five days after the sale of an automobile, the seller must turn his gasoline ration book in to his local war price and ra tioning board. However, the tire inspection record is to remain In the car after its sale. OPA fuel rationing . officials also reminded motorists' today to endorse number 4 coupons with license number of their car and the state in which the vehicle is registered. Many service sta tions report that motorists are failing to endorse these coupons in advance. This equipment is a precautionary, measure to safe guard the use of gasoline ration books in the case of loss or theft, it was explained. , It will be nice if Insurance companies would base rotes on the idea that vou'r nnlv n nM as you feel. ief At Last For Your Cough nronmitlttlnn mIIbva nmmnfltf ti cause It goes right to the seal of the trouble to help loosen and expel to soothe and heal raw. tender, in. flamed bronchial mucous mem n ran on Tall Ttnnx .(.. n a bottle of Creomulslon with the un- ucrnuuiuinK you must wee ine way it milrltlV Clllot tha nnnnh nn .. to have your money back.
