Cars Collide at
Church St. Corner

At 7:10 last evening carload OF
Medford boys in an auto cn route out
to Ashland high school to play basket
ball with the Ashland second team,
and George Barron in his Stanley
steamer, collided at the corner OF
Church and Main streets. The boys
we're coasting down the hill with the
car out of gear, and despite the fact
that it was dusk did not have their
lights lit. Mr.. Barron, oil the other
hand, was in the wrong AS regards
right Of way, and so the blame was
evenly divided. Barron was turning
I'D Church street and hit the back of
the Medford car an old model Chalm-
ers, throwing it completely around
No one was hurt but both cars were
damaged considerably. Barron's car
had both front wheels, the tenders,
lights and spring broken while the
other car had the rear wheel and
side smashed in.
The Medford car is owned by A. w.
Walker and was driven by his son
Clark. With him were Melvin Wal
lace. Kern Caldwell, John Whipple,
Gardner Gould and Laurene and John
Frees.

(COntlnueQ from Pdge One.)
Under the present schedule some
trainmen run more than 100 miles
in less than eight hours. 1t is pos
sible that such men will be paid on
straight eight-hour basis, with no
allowance for their excess mileage.
The law really would prove a hard
ship to them.
1t is apparent, too, that the mana
gers soon will attempt readjust-
ment of their schedules so that most
of the runs will be limited to eight
hours. They figure that they can
speed up their trains sufficiently to
do this.
With the constant extension of the
double-track systems on the big
trunk lines it will not be difficult
to put a 10-hour train over the road
in eight hours.
In fact. it is possible that the one
effect of the law will be to induce
the railroads to double track parts
of their lines for that very purpose.
/ BY many other devices the rail
roads will attempt to bring the run
ming time of their trains within the
actual eight-hour limit. This doubt
less will be disappointing to some of
the men who had hoped to gain sub
stantial wage increases by continu-
ing to work 10 hours or more and
getting paid overtime for all in ex-
cess of eight hours.
It is apparent, though, that a great
many trainmen were in absolute good
faith in their campaign for an eight
hour day, as they say it is merely a
part of the general movement 20
make the eight-hour principle of uni
versal application.
The wage increase sustained dates
back to January 1, when the Adam
son act was made effective. Rail-
roads have been keeping account of
trainmen's wages due for prompt pay
ment upon Mondays decision. The
temporary wage increases are effec-
tive under the law until the Goethals'
commission reports, while the future
wage scales under permanent eight
hour day standard will await either
private or congressional action after
the report

Medford Sun: All hopes of set

day, when three of the stars of the
Medford team, Williamson, Jones and
Olmstead, left with the aviation
squad. With these men out, the
team has disbanded for the year, and
the title is in doubt. Roseburg
claims the honor upon the grounds
that the locals played none of the
teams in the Willamette valley. The
fact, however, remains that Medford

games, but AYERS that these two loss

Governor Urges
Militia Enlistment
Proclamation.

Whereas, loyalty and patriotism
are virtues which every true Ameri-
can is proud to possess and glad to
express; and
Whereas, 1t is plainly evident that
the existing military resources of our
government are totally inadequate for
the proper protection Of the country;
and
Whereas, we, as G. nation, are op-
posed to the maintenance of large
standing army and infinitely prefer
voluntary military service to compul-
sorry organization; and
Whereas, our best opportunity for
voluntary patriotic service is offered
by the National Guard, which today
stands in sore need Of upbuilding If
it is adequately to meet the require
ments which may be placed upon it;
and
Whereas, l believe that spirit Of
patriotism not surmpassed in fervor
or intensity at any time in our ma
tional history, lives in the hearts Of
the people of this great statc of Ore
gon, which only awaits the call for an
expression,
Now, therefore, /, James Witty
combe, as governor of the state of
Oregon, suggest that the need of the
National Guard for recruits offers
worthy opportunity for the display of
practical patriotism, and urge young
men to fulfill the obligations of our
national citizenship by rallying to the
flag, thus setting an example worthy
of our best traditions and indicative
of their certain continuance;
And | further proclaim the week
beginning March 25, 1917, as "Patri.
otto Week" for the state, to be devot-
ed to the sober consideration of pres
ent day patriotism and urge that all
officers of the Oregon National Guard
make special effort to recruit their
companies to full capacity by the end
CT that time.
In testimony whereof, have here
unto set my hand and caused the seal
of the state of Oregon to be hereunto
affixed this 21st day of March, 1917.

Governor

Before the arrest two police wo-
