Cass Roseburg math marsh area The proposal was outlined in a speech before veterans and con servationists here. McKay, form er governor of Oregon and former secretary of the Interior Depart ment, also called for operation of the Fish and Wildlife Service un der a new bureau within the In terior Department; for delay in construction of Pclton Dam until the question of a stale license for the project is settled; and for ex pansion of nationa park facia lis. McKay told of studies under way on termination of federal con trol over the Klamath Reserva tion and said: "1 believe that the eventual answer to disposal of Klamath Indian forests probably lies in purchase of the reserva tion, or at least its timber lands. by the federal government for sustained yield operation. Other wise piecemeal sale could not, in my opinion, insure continuous sustained yield practices." He also suggested that the 70,-OOd-acre Klamath marsh be used for a water fowl refuge. On the controversy over con struction of Pelton Dam on the Deschutes River in Central Ore gon, McKay said he had always Deen a strong advocate of slates rights. He said, "There is a serious question of whether Pelton Dam should be built without the issu ance of a slate license. If there were a legal and proper way in which construction could be de layed until issuance of a state li cense, 1 would favor such action. McKay also reviewed his ac tions in the field of conservation as governor and secretary of the interior. and Richard Oilman Secretary Nadcn. who has been directing the summer program here during the last two weeks, asked that boys leaving for camp Sunday bring their lunches. He said the bus would arrive at camp shortly atter lunch. FOR BACK-TO-SCHOOL . CLOTHES Sportswear Shop Exclusivt Lady's Sportswear IN I. E. CASS AVE. - PH.

Y.WI- A cau tions crew of safecrackers has come up with a new burglar's aid a telephone alarm system from lookout to bank vault. The thieves, working under cov er of night, successfully demon strated the modern communica tion setup over the weekend. They looted the l.ynbrook branch of the Meadowbrook National Bank of an estimated $100,000 in cash and an undetermined amount in checks. Police said the burglars first leaped from a Long Island Rail Road trcslle lo the roof of a one story building next to the bank. Then, using a ladder, they climbed to the roof of the bank's two-story annex. From there they ducked in to the main building through a third-floor window. The thieves strung communica tions wire all the way from a look out point on the railroad trestle right up to the steel door of the bank's night depository. Appar ently there were telephone sets on each end of the line. The lookout could observe any vehicle or pedestrian near the bank and flash a warning in an instant to the gang inside. The burglars burned open the depository with an acetylene torch. They hauled out the cash and checks that depositors had left there Friday. ' The bank's alarm system failed to ring. 6 How far back do we want to go to arrive at what the famous Negro spiritual refers to as "that old time religion"? We in the Episcopal Church believe that the place to start is not at the Reformation or at any other intermediate spot in Christianity's almost 2,000 year history. The place to begin is at the religion of the primitive church as laid down by our Lord, His Apostles and the early Church Fathers. ' The Apostles' Creed refers to it as "The Holy Catholic Church" the original Chris, tian Church, united, undivided, with a single faith, a single practice. As we study church history, it seems to us that the Episcopal Church and its nationally independent associates in the world-wide com. munion of Anglicans (whose faith and prac tice stem from the very ancient Church of Kngland) have retained closest allegiance to the faith and practice of the early church. . We hold that everything necessary to sal vation is to be found in Holy Scripture, and that the Church was founded by our Lord. We also hold that the Church compiled the Holy Bible as a living record of God's will for us, and that our worship of God should be done with beauty and with the congrega tion actively taking part.
