Illinois Valley News, Thursday, January 19, 1939 OFF IN THE CORNER WITH PHIL SNORT Dear Ed: This letter is going to have for its subject—“HATE.” More than any other thing hate stands su preme in the destruction of life upon this earth; tribes hate tribes, races hate races, nations hate na tions and class hates class. Hate breeds war, destroys property, murders the innocent, destruction and waste in its paths. I have placed hate at the head of Wild Life destruction and I expect to prove it before I am through with T exaco Gas, Oil, Greases ILLINOIS VALLEY MOTOR CO. G. A. Hicks, Prop. American Legion Dance SATURDAY JANUARY 21 “Spot Dance” With Prizes Bennett’s Orchestra I American Legion Hall I Cave Junction 1 ............................................................ 0 these letters. All the way across this United states are thre£ great armies of hate. “The upper class, the mid dle class' and the lower class.” The “upper” class hates the mid dle class; the middle class hates the upper class and lower class; the lower class hates both the up per and middle classes; the rich disdain and look down upon the poor; the poor hate and envy the rich and try to emulate them; The employer looks at the em ployee with hate; the employee looks at his employer with hate; the city hates the country and the country hates the cities; organ ized industrial hate prevails throughout the land and it seems that hate is everywhere and in everything. There is not a community in the world that does not have and hold its social classes. We have them in the Illinois Valley. Our “best" society would not be taken notice of in Grants Pass’ “best” society. The Grants Pass high so cial society would not be tolerat ed by the Portland uppers. Port land would be given the high-hat in Chicago. And Chicago could not get a peek-in in New York, Boston or Washington. The Aris tocracy of England knows none of the American herd—So what? All the lakes in the United States are being gobbled up by the wealthy “sportsmen.” Club hous es are established on all the im portant ones and are only acces sible to those who are financially able to patronize them. No won der the common herd hates them. If a poor devil wants a duck, snipe or fish, and manages to get them, why, he is a poacher; if caught he is persecuted for trespass or theft. The poor hate all these owners of fish and game “pre serves;” this hate causes him to take in any way, and what he can not take he proceeds to destroy , so the privileged sportsman can not get them. This is all for this time. More next week. ------------ o------------ “A Poor Married Man” Delights Audience | EXPERT REPAIRS i Last Saturday night, the play “A Poor Married Man” was given j MURPHY HICKS [ at the Deer Creek Grange hall to I ILLINOIS VALLEY GARAGE! a capacity audience.
