Churches Must
Alter Courses,
Sprague Advises
Churches must alter their
courses if they are to administer
to man's needs today, Ex-Governor
Charles A. Sprague told Meth
odists here Thursday night.
Sprague, speaking on "T h e
Church in the Changing World,"
addressed a congregation follow
ing a banquet in the Methodist
Church.
The speaker, presently editor of
the Oregon Statesman, told the
group the church, like other insti
tutions, has to adapt to changing
world conditions. t
Man today is frustrated and In
search of spiritual peace, Sprague
said, and it is the duty of the
church to provide him some meas
ure of courage with which to meet
life's threats.
But, the speaker explained,
churches cannot administer to
man's spiritual wants if they cling
to old tenets and beliefs.
He emphasized this point by ex
plaining that religion must be re
vised and interpreted to fill the
psychological needs of man as they
arise today.
The lack of this adaptation can
mean trouble, Sprague said.
"If the church doesn't satisfy
man's spiritual hungering, he will
look for something else. Frequent
ly this leads to mental disorders,"
he explained
Remedy Offered
Turning to the relationship of
churches and the world at large,
Sprague saw a remedy in what
he termed the "social gospel."
By this he meant the rehabilita
tion of persons in the lower eco
nomic strata by providing them
with financial aid and guideposts
of Christian principles.
As examples, Sprague cited the
work being done in tenement
slums, the work of missionaries
and the aid being extended peo
ples in oppressed areas.
Such assistance, tne speaker
said, could in large part reduce
the frustration plaguing people to
day by raising their economic
standards.
There are also problems to be
met on the local scene, Sprague
explained.
Today, Roseburg present, a
challenge, the editor said, and
church groups should meet it with
responsibility.
Increased population and Indus
trial growth present problems that
will have to be met, he noted. But,
as on the larger scene, church
groups can assist in their remedy
only if they alter their routine.
Deliquency Laid
By Dist. Atty.
To Home Laxity
Solution of the Juvenile delin
quency problem is basically edu
cation with the parents, in the
opinion of District Attorney Rob
ert G. Davis, who spoke before the
Lions Club Thursday night.
A visit to the homes of most de
linquents will usually illustrate
why those children are delinquents.
He referred to broken homes,
drunken fathers, or mothers who
are forced to work to provide
for their families and unable to
ci.re for their children as contrib
uting factors toward delinquents.
As a case in point he discussed
briefly the Vernon John Gosso
case. Gosso, at 24, has been com
mitted to the Oregon State Peni
tentiary for life, and is not eligible
for parole. If he lives tho normal
life expectancy, he will be a ward
of the state until he is 65 years
of ae.
Gosso, said Davis has no real
home. His father and mother were
separated. His father had been in
and out of the penitentiary from
the tine Vernon was a small
child. At 11 ,ir 12 years, he was
stealing bicycles in wholesale lots
and selling the parts. He was in
and out of tho Woodburn training
school, and later in and out of pri
son, until he was a finished crim
inal product at the age of 24.
Practically every delinquency
case can be laid at the doorstep
of the parents, according to the
district attorney. Youth centers
and youth organizations usually
provide an outlet only for those
boys and girls who are going
straight anyway. We can't expect
schools in six hours to do what
parents can't do the remainder
of the day.
We should stop thinking what the
kids are doing and start determin
ing what parents are doing, Davis
said.
Remedial Action Begun
On the problem of what to do
about it, Davis said that a com
mittee on juvenile delinquency is
being started in Roseburg, with
its aim to make a correlated ef
fort of all organizations inter
ested in youth welfaie.
He said County Judge Carl Hill
has volunteered to be the chair
man, that he will work on the
committee, and that representa
tives from the churches, service
clubs, medical society and a psy
chiatrist at the Veterans Hospital
are desired on the committee.
Davis stated he did not wish
to give the impression that we
have a bunch of Al Capones in
Douglas County, but that the prob
lem is a serious one.
