Independence. 1 think, had more effect on the recent election than the factors cited by Marlow. Our present system of political structure has made parties more than useless, I believe.

TEXT: MATTHEW :l-15 Chapters 4. 6 ind 7 of Matthew are commonly called "The Beati tudes," and are i part of our Lord's first sermon on the Mount, i They actually reveil the principles of the kingdom. Jesus herein is setting up spirit ual ictivities and exercises for those who would develop in the wonderful realm of the spiritual. Chapter 8 not only describes these spiritual exercises, but also pre sents the manner in which we ire lo participate in them. The exer cises described ire ilms giving, prayer, and fasting. Certainly the practice of these is of good advan tage for all who would enter inlo the kingdom the spiritual realm. However, to gain the best re sults, we are admonished by the I.ord to exercise in pnvati or secrecy. Our alms-giving is to be I per sonil sicnfice unseen by men. Our priyer ministry is to be in the quiet of our closet, unheird by men. Our fisting n to be with I glad rountanance unnoticed bv men. Why this procedure? There I is only one answer. These spiritual exercises involve a relationship with our l ord, and as the lover of our soul. He desires to share these ! and no one else. I Undoubtedly the most outstand ing spiritual exercise in Chapter 6 is that of prayer. The Word of God gives exceeding great and precious promises to those who will exer cise therein. This passage con tains the lord's Praver It is to us a pattern for praver. It is not to be our only praver. It is. as it were, giving to ui the proper at tude. procedure, spirit, position, ind practice when we pray. It is an assured pittern for true inter cession. It is thus we develop in proper proportion in our spiritual life. Rev. Arthur Hoenisch Pastor Hucrest Church Present Day Missiles Powered To Pass Moon MILWAUKEE.

Child Guidance Clinic Review Is RecemMi-ended To The Editor After having read your editorial in the Novem ber 28 issue of The News-Review, I have come to the conclusion that you have undoubtedly received er roneous information as lo the pur pose of the Childhood Guidance Clinic. The philosophy underlying its use and operation, is to identi fy and provide treatment meas ures for extreme cases of emotion al disturbed and maladjusted chil dren. These children are needy in ihe sense that they need help now if they are to lead normal, adult lives. They are needy because now there is no place in the county where they can be taken for help for a complete program if treat ment. Children have been referred to our late clinic from families of varying economic status ranging from well-to-do. to the poor. Such an operation cannot properly be classified as socialistic unless it competes with private enterprise. To my knowledge, we have no one in the county who is engaged in private practice in the fields of psychiatry, psychology, or psvehi alric social work. The Child Guid ance Clinic for Douglas County was not set up for the use of the indigent. It was set up for the use of all children who are extreme cases since there is no treatment available in the county elsewhere for such children. j A finding of psychological re search is that basic personality traits and the mechanisms by which individuals cope with their maladjustments are formed during I heir first lew years of lile. Thus our Child Guidance Clinic reached children at an age when diagnosis and trealment could be of greatest effect. At this point. I would indi cate to you that our schools are not prepared to cope with extreme cases of maladjustment. They are an integral part of the treaiment as outlined by the clinic. Certain ly our society spends huge stuns to incarcerate maladjusted adults who have been unable to cope with their environment in a free so ciety. Probably few of these in dividuals had any effective help based upon scientific understand- ing and treatment when they were children. The child of today is a man of tomorrow. In terms of broken lives, in the cost to society Child Guidance Clinic 1 Purpose Is Explained To The Editor: With increasing reports of delinquency and mental disturbances in children, a pro gressive community must do its ut most to meet the ilua:ion. Doug las County is indeed fortunate in having trained ind able personnel available and willing to serve on the Child Guidance Clinic. There is definite need for such a clinic here, and to halt its activities aft er its establishment and successful operation for one year is difficult lo understand. I am glad to find tliat lha county court did, in fad, have a reason for this action. In the light of re cent election resul'j which show the defeat of measures leading to higher taxes, it was perhaps logic al to the court to cut an item which would involve growing costs to Douglas County. But it seems to me that a little more Considera-. tion on the part of the county court members would hive revealed in important factor. Some of these children who an helped by the clinic an very likely the ones who would eventually necessitate our support (at much greater cost) in correctional or mental institutions. How much better to try to prevent such results with a clinic operating at a cost still verv low for the help it gives. It is still my strong feeling that the members of the county court would be icting in the best interests of the people who elected them hy reconsider ing their decision and allowing the clinic to renew its viluable work.

I Insurance Man States Beck Said Worth Over Million TACO.MA (API - A Los An geles insurance executive testified Friday that former Teamsters Union President Dave Beck com puted his net worth in 1951 as over a million dollars, plus $100, OiK) in government bonds. A M. Burke, official of the Oc cidental Life Insurance Co. of Cal ifornia, told a federal district court jury that the figure of $1. 052.71565 was used in computa tions which led to the approval of a SKI7.0O0 loan to the Seattle labor leader Beck is being tried on charges of evading $240,000 in income taxes in 1950-53. The $1,052.715 65 figure was ar rived at, Burke said, through fi nancial statements and records submitted by Beck in applying for the loan. The net worth figure did not include. Burke said, some $100000 in government bonds or considerable insurance In applying for the loan. Burke conunued. Beck listed his liabili ties as a $2.14 000 unsecured note held by the Seattle First National Bank. Paid Back Part o Lin Beck repaid about $115 (ssl nf the loan in three years, the in surance executive said The amounts were about $27. "oo m 1951, $59 2"0 in 1952 ind $28 3u0 in 1353 ind some money still re muns to be paid on li. Asst U S Atty. John S Oben our asked Burke if he had ever been advised thit Beck owed money to my Teamsters group. ' Not to my recollection," Burke said. ' In making subsequent loans." Obenour continued, "was any ref erence ever made to anv Labili ties to the Teamsters Union'" "Not to my recollection," Burke answered. The defense has contended that thl inr reave in Beck's net worth over the 19.W-53 period for whir to keep many of the maladjusted it public expense, many in vari ous institutions, the cost of I local Child Guidance Clinic is not ex cessive and is good insurance for the future. It is not i cure-ill. but is in effective vehicle for helping to prevent juvenile delinquency. The financial aid to the county from federal and state govern ments is in the form of a stimu lative grant. A grant of this kind provides most of the money for operation during the first few years of operation. However, each year the state and federal funds are gradually with-drawn so as to allow the local governmental unit an increasing opportunity to make budget prov isions. Most of us who favor keeping the government close to the people, believi in lh principles of stimulative grants. Such grants get a program slirted to help solve i problem, but gives increasing responsibility to the lo cal level for maintenance ind op eration. Eor move information on Child Guidance Clinics, I would refer you to Dr. Mary Soules, Douglas County Health Officer. I hope that this letter will be the h;isis for clarifying to you the work c-f the Child Guidance Clinic as it was operated in Douglas County. Kenneth F. Barneburg Co. School Supt. Roseburg. Ore. E I c 2 r Resident Gives Advice To Young Folks To The Editor I am an old man and I have learned a few things that I want to pass on. Per haps they will benefit other peo ple. I read what i man wrote after he had been drowned then brought to. He said there was no pain, that it was pleasant. I, too, have been drowned. I was scared. I thought of a lot of mean things I had done However, there was no pain until I was being brought to. Then the pain was terrible. It felt as if my lunc.s were being torn to pieces as the. hot water ran from my mouth. When I stacked hay in Klamath County many years ago, a lot of hay went into stacks and barns. Some barns were burned. Many people thought it was ihe work of enemies. The truth was that it was because of their own carelessness. When they went to dinner, they left their water jugs, which they had placed in the shade while working. The sun moved around and shone on the lug while they were gone. That stalled the fire. Most of them used wine jugs. The hot sun shining on i glass jug for a few minutes will siart a fire. 1 had learned that fact. I always took my jug with me. I also learned that a cougar would not jump nn a person who kept a match li i dark night. A cougar followed close to me for a half mile one dark night. Thank goodness. I had a lot of parlor matches. The cougar leap ed on the tent pole as I went in the tent. He dashed avvav as I came out with i lighted limp ind my cocked carbine, which I could use with one hand. My four-year-old daughter felt in the irrigation ditch and was wash ed under a bridge where she caught i stringer with one hand The water was up to the top of the stringer. Her six-year-old sis ter, after watching a while, went back to the house and told her mother. Our daughter was under water all of five minu'es. My wife brought her to hy holding lier hy the feet, head down, and shaking her up and down to force the wa ter from her lunc.s. She is grown now, but still re members how she suffered when the water left her lungs, ilthough she says there was no pain while being drowned. If this is published it may save lives ind property. E.
