SO UTHERN OREGON M IN E R , TH U R SD AY , M A Y in unison and from memory A Place of Refuge ' ed the lines he was reuding. Inciden- By Ruth Taylor u "Only the mind eunnot be sent into exile." Though Ovid wrote that c e n t u m . ago, like .ill truthN it is ugeless. Aguin and uguin in the history of our nution, it hus been proven to us. Wave after wave of exiles from the strife, the hutreds, the discriminations and the persecu­ tions of overcluttered Europe, have helped to settle and to build the nution which we hold to be the finest on earth. Those who have come recently we cull "refugees". However, this phrase wrongly sets them apart. Perhaps some umong them are but refuge-seekers. Perhaps the minds of some the still overseas in their erstwhile homes. But these are but a few among the great numbers who come here in the same spirit as our own ances­ tors - because America is the lund of promise, the land where a man might still be free before his conscience and his God. Their bodies may have gone into exile, but their minds have enriched the country to which they have come. Expressive of these Americans by choice, Earl Hurrison, former­ ly United States Commissioner of Immigration und Naturalization, once told a story which so im­ pressed me that I want to repeat it here: "A few weeks ago a leading attorney in one of our lurge cities was addressing a group of for­ eign-born petitioners who were about to be sworn in as Ameri­ can citizens. The speaker opened his address by saying that he was going to read several lines from the Preamble to the Constitution. As soon as he started, almost the entire group of petitiqpers - more than two hundred strong - recit- ' tully, the man who reported the incident said that the speaker wus about the only one in that room who had to read that part of the Preamble." In commenting on his story, Mr. Harrison continued. "The duys of unrestricted immigration arc probably gone forever. But in the light of our history and the fine record made here by those who have come from other lands, we will undoubtedly keep our gates reasonably open. From the humanitarian point of view, we cannot do therwise; from the point of self interest, new immi­ To the People o f this Com m unity How long will the war with Japan last? Everybody has an answer to this question but our best advice is n o t to base your bond buying on whether you think it w ill ta k e w e e k s or years to win In the Pa­ cific. T h e best w ar conduct is always to be on an all- out war ef­ fort basis. General Douglas C. M acA rthur gave you the tipofl on what to expect before your relatives and friends take over a wrecked Tokyo. In the Philippine cam ­ paign only 185 Japanese sur­ rendered in a slaughter which cost them 308,180 men. Buy bonds in the 7th W ar Loan with a spirit of an Am erican in combat. Give It to the Japs full force and with all your weapons. That's the way to do your part in the vital, mighty 7th w a r Loan. Now—all together. T H E E D IT O R grants would be giving our coun­ try the strength that the infusion of new blood always brings to it, geared to the necessity of fight­ ing for a democratic way of life; new Americans, who, thanks to the colossal stupidity of the Nazi regime are rapidly enrichening our nation with the fruits of their skills and their brains. There can be no doubt about the goals these people share in common with the rest of our population." "Only the mind cannot be sent into exile.” Let us rejoice that throughout our history America has been the refuge of the best from all nations and from all peo­ ples.
