SISKIYOU HIGHWAY DEDICATION CEREMONIES
SERVED AN IMPORTANT PURPOSE!
Formal opening of the new Siskiyou mountain
highway Tuesday, although not attended by a great
many individuals from southern Oregon, was an
important occasion.
“Why waste a lot of time and words over the
thing?” was the query of stay-at-homes, who missed
the pnint 'me dedication ceremonies were not import
ant in themselves but tne purpose they served was
important to all of us, for the primary value of the
occasion was its ability to tell the world that at long
last the mountain bottleneck has been completely
eliminated and no longer will motorists have to twist
and turn their way over a tortuous road.
The great amount of publicity attendant upon the
opening program will be of inestimable value in re
claiming the heavy tourist travel through this area
which belongs here, and the large part in this effort
played by the Ashland Chamber of Commerce—both
in promoting and carrying out the idea—should re
ceive the grateful appreciation of all of us.

THE DIES COMMITTEE CARRIES ON
WITH ITS PUBLICITY’ HUNT!
When Representative Martin Dies, chairman of the
Dies committee investigating subversive activities in
the United States, accused the Federal Bureau of
Investigation of inefficiency and use of outmoded
methods, the ambitious Texan weakened his own case.
Newspaper readers will not soon forget the elab
orate and politically inspired anti-administration
charges hurled by the Dies committee, which sought
to maintain a front-page position through a long series
of sensational and uncorroborated accusations. There
seemed to have been a noticeable coincidence between
Dies’ anti-subversive vehemence and pending authori
zation of additional funds for the committee’s
continuance.
Although most Americans are deeply concerned
over evidence of sabotage and other subversive activ
ities on the part of foreign nations, Dies’ policy of
yelling “Wolf!” at opportune moments (timed so as to
gain maximum attention in the press and radio)
somewhat defeats its own purpose. For many will
suspect—and perhaps rightly—that the congressman
has become enamored of his importance and is prosti
tuting current dislike for dictator nations.
Already the committee chairman is slurring the
nation’s secret police—the G-Men—and bragging
about how much better he is doing the work of saving
America. Either Dies is overwhelmed by his own
importance or he deliberately is sabotaging public
opinion for political gain.
We still have unshaken confidence in the ability
of the FBI to cope with subversives and sabotage in
America without the self-appraised assistance of
Martin Dies and his publicity-hungry stooges, who
once accused Shirley Temple of being a dangerous
communist!

DRAFT EVADERS DESERVE THE SCORN
WITH WHICH THEY ARE REGARDED!
Conscientious objectors—for the most part stu
dents of religion or men of the cloth—are cropping
into the news for refusing to register for conscription.
Though their actions can be explained, the draft
evaders do not endear themselves to their fellow
citizens.
Religious or conscientious objection to will of the
majority goes deep into human relationships. For the
man who refuses to bear arms for his country passes
on the burden of protecting America—and of protect
ing the objector’s religious freedom—to those who are
able to synchronize their religious beliefs with their
patriotism, their scruples with their obligations.
A man must suffer great mental confusion if he is
