Industry Hope Said TI T 1 1I mercnanr marine Harbors Congress Hears Projects Lose "out . to Defense -Toledo, Ore., July 20-(Jt)-- The hope of American industry end. Indeed, ; of American pros perity, rests on the American mer chant marine, Ueait Jonrson. gen eral manager of the C. D. Johnson Lumber corporation lre, told the northwest riTers and har bor congress Friday. "Ocean shipping" he described M "a primary essentia to Ameri can business which most race tne crisis of an economic war in troubled world. If we do not bring the American merchant marine out of the doldrums, foreijtn in- - dustry and commerce ineritably will bring disaster to American business and our standard of 11t- ln. "Importance of the derelop- ment of rivers and harbors to fa cilitate the shipping Ufa lines of industry should be a keystone in our national defense program.' V. A. Davis, president of the port of Camas-Washougal. Wash. Invited the congress to hold Its 1941 convention there. Rivers and harbors projects will decrease in the coming year "because of the move to spend all available money for national defense purposes. Major C. R. Moore of Portland, district army engineer, said. Projects essential to the navy will receive consider ation, he said. "Oregon is now the top state In the nation's lumber industry,' Moore said,' "and her rivers and harbors are becoming increasing ly important in transportation of logs and manufactured products. The need for adequate water transportation in Oregon' was nev er greater. The disrlc army ttenglneer said Oregon's Willamette valley has increased its logging operations more than any other northwest section. The passage of logs through the Oregon City locks last year was 17 times greater than ever before, he explained. 3000 at Conference OREGON CITT, July lS-CflV Three thousand persons attended the annual Oregon conference of Seventh Day Adventista at Glad stone park Friday.

The Indian cemetery- at the original Lee mission was on the knoll a few rods southeast of the marker. Collectors, for -years, found beads and other Indian rel ics there.

They went In the spirit of their Master, testifying by their death the reality of their faith in the Eternal, Invisible One who had promised to keep what they had committed to Him Wonderful record they left for those '"who follow In their train!" The writer agrees with the edi torial that the earth will probably not strike a meteor and be broken to pieces, as the lady in her dis may was almost ready to wish But, just as certain as that the Bible Is God's Word to the world there is a day coming, "a day of the Lord ' that shall come "as a thief in the night" "(to those who are not expecting it.") When "the heavens shall pass away with la great noise, and the elements shall melt with fervent heat, the earth also and the works that are therein shall be burned up." Peter 3:10. It is very evident from the context that this is not sym- bollc language but a plain state- Peter says in a preceding verse that the heavens and the earth . . are reserved unto fire' against the day of Judgment and predl tlon of ungodly men. Verse nine tells us that "the Lord is not slack concerning his promise ... but is long suffer ing to us ward, not willing that any snouid perish, but that all should come to repentance There are numerous texts pur port. In these heartbreaking days, it is fitting that we turn to the Book of books and read and pon der upon the words of Rev. 11:18, 'And the nations were angry and thy wrath to come and the tlme of the dead, that they should be Judged.-. . . and shouldst destroy them which destroy the earth." jrtwHiws w hese ) An w It. s-ik ., vro-. r . the gntii men and tQe Pica 'men and the chief captains, and the mlhfv mfin anl avofw fiaa man n,d them9elTes la the dens and in w -n-t- r , mAnnxin.- Bnt Lld to tae mountains and rocks. m .- -it-. .v throne ftnd rrom tDe of the 9 Lamb; for the great day or his Urathis COme: and who shall be anir,,, .ir. . n.. lu worthy to esCape all 1 tblngs that to pass, and to stand before the Son of Man." Thera Is an added admonition In. the 1 4th verse, "take heed to your selves, lest at any time your hearts be orerehanged with sur feiting and drmnkeness, and cares of this life and so that day come upon .yoa unawares. The first record we hare of man's desire is found in Gen. 3:8. When Adam and Eve had d la- obeyed 5 their- God and Creator they went and hid .themselves from the presence of the Lord. But then, as ever, there was no escape from God and the Lord God called unto -Adam, "Where art thon??!" - Jonah was another who ' at tempted to run away: from God and daty, but ' was unsuccesafuL It la , certain that no man can scape God bat there to an escape provided by Him for those who "suffer i according to the will of God" and commit the keeping of their souls to Him In well doing, as unto a faithful Creator. Peter To these are given "exceeding Sre&t and "precious promiseM that they, may escape the pollu tions of the world through the knowledge -of the -Lord tend EaT- lor Jesus Christ, f 2 Peter 1:20.) xne tate or this world' is por trayed in the Scriptures. The tide ot battle will not alwars ebb and flow, while wars "wax aad. wane." He that sitteUi- Don the throue tn , hearen ha . said -iienoia mate aU things new," And he that OTcrcometh shall herit all thing: and I will be his God, and he shall be my son, Rev. 31:5 and 8. But the son does not become an overcomer by "dodging respon sibility" or "in hiding out when the season of testing comes. But, he overcomes by "drawing on re serves of strength to meet reali ties and fronting bravely the day's ordeals." And, these "reserves "of strength' are to be found . in the Eternal Word of God. I would most sincerely agree I wnn our Editor that there is "a religion of Work and Hope," and also, praise God, there is a "Re ligion of Escape" for that "one who never turned his back but marched breast forward." But that escape is not found In a Brahman retreat. v. ZULA MYER SIMPSON. Dallas, Oregon. FROM WILDERNESS TO WONDERLAXD From wilderness to wonderland. This great Northwest has grown; The land the pioneers had j planned, To settle as their own. They felled the trees, and blaxed the trail. O'er mountains white with snow. They crossed huge streams in wagons frail One hundred years ago. No signs to guide them as today No roofs to shelter their brave band. Each day they pressed along the way Until they reached this western land, They built their homes of log and shake They hewed and rlred by hand; They worked and sacrificed to make. For us, this wonderland. Where Indian trails wound o'er the hills, Our highways wend their way; They forded streams and surging rills. Where bridges span today. wnere antelope and deer once played. Great fields of grain now stand. With fruits and gardens that have made This western wonderland. : United ..let us celebrate, Our first Centennial year; Throughout the breadth of this great State Let voices ring with cheer. Sing praises to our pioneers, Whose work was brave grand. i and That led us from the, wilderness Into this wonderland.

But doe this mean Willkle is, In the bag? Far from it, in my opinion. Reason Is on the side of the republicans this time, hut emo tions are still with the third term party. There are millions of people today whose, emotional self-interest has. completely sold them on Roosevelt: 'beyond . the ability of reason to challenge. He could do anything, and - they would still vote tor him, because they believe he personally Is re sponsible for their old age secur ity, their farm checks, public work, their union or Just simply because they think he 1 for the poor man, and they are still poor. If Willkle is going to crack this blind faith, he must reach down below the white collar mid dle classes. Today I do not ' be lieve Willkle is widely known or understood among the voters. They have . not yet . become ac quainted with - him. He. cannot depend on intelligence' to do the Job. He cannot reach them with reason alone. He must make an emotional appeal, a wide,' deep and stirring national crusade to establish himself as an authentic champion of the great majority.
