The oAmerican Way
THE PROFIT MOTIVE
By GEORGE PECK
Too many Americans believe was forced to obtain sustenance
that the'attack on our American
Capitalistic System, which for no
good reason we apologetically
have come to call the Free En
ierprise System, is a threat only
.ue businessman.
It IS a threat to the business
man the abolition of the Amer
ican Capitalistic System would
destroy him but such annihila
tion would also take away the
cherished liberties of every man,
woman and child in the nation,
irrespective of creed, race or sta
tion in life. The Bill of Rights
would go out the window and our
heralded Constitution would be
but a scrap of paper.
The anti-business, anti-capital
istic proponents decry the profit
motive. Some of them go so far
as to quote Scripture on the re
lation of property ownership and
the common good, and suggest
that if the profit motive were re
moved, great masses of people
would benefit.
The Very Rev. Charles E. McAl
lister, Dean of the Cathedral of
St. John the Evangelist, Spokane,
Wash., takes sharp issue with
this. He states that socialism, the
system that proposes to do away
with private profit, has shown
itself in many respects inconsist
ent with Christian teachings,
during Lent of this year, he yeliv
ered a sermon on the subject,
tive." I pass on to you the clos
ing words of that stirring sermon.
"Christianity and the Profit Mo-
From here on it Is Dean McAllis
ter speaking:
There were two bands of pil
grims who came to America, both
as far as we can ascertain, of
equal character and ability. One
landed on a West Indies island,
where everything was easy and
comfortable, and it was never
heard of afterwards, as far as
exercising any influence on hu
manity was concerned. The other
landed on an inhospitable shore,
was met by savage Indians, and
I f-rxr tnn fprtilp land.
xiviii a jiuiic
These latter furnished the spirit
ual and economic foundations of
our nation and democracy. They
were Christians. They were capa.
ble of sacrifice. They were work
ers. They believed in reward for
honest toil and they had no use
for the parasite who refused to
work, but wanted to live on the
profits of other men's labor.
We can never inspire youth to
great endeavor if we encourage
them in the thought that life con
sists of getting something for
nothing, by whatever means, fair
or foul.
It is certainly not social justice
to take away the earnings of the
industrious and the efficient, and
give them to the lazy and incom
petent. It is certainly not Chris
tian, for under such a system
Thou shall love thy neighbor as
thyself" is forgotten. But instead,
we have "Love thyself, it makes
no difference what happens to
thy neighbor."
Everyone of us is called to do
needful work. That work is re
warded so that every honest man
who is not physically handicap
ped can pay his own way. Of
course, there are inequalities in
our economic system. There are
evils that need to be corrected.
Management, labor, and govern
ment are all guilty iii varying
degrees of these evils.
The profit motive exists In the
spiritual realm. We live up to a
certain moral code that there
may be a little heaven here on
earth as well as hereafter. Just
because there has been, abuse of
the exercise of the profit motive
is not reason for us to sacrifice
the freedom to work, to live, and
to help others. Let us correct the
abuses, but at the same time, we
might well remember the words
of Studdert Kennedy when he
said, "We must be careful not to
throw the baby out with the
bathwater."

ON A CLEAR DAY, a mag
nificent scene is spread before
the eyes of residents of north'
west Oregon and southwest
Washington.
With only a quarter-turn of
the head they can thrill to the
grandeur of three mighty
guardians of the Columbia Mt.
Hood, Mt. Adams and Mt. St.
Helens. Each stands by itself in
a splendid isolation that gives
this trio a distinction over even
higher mountains that come in
groups and bunches.
Mt. Hood, whose 11,345-foot
elevation makes it the middle
height mountain of the three,
is far ahead of the other two in
development as a recreation
area.
The famed Mt. Hood Loop
highway goes half around the
mountain at the 3000 to 4000
foot level, and permits reason
ably close automobile in
spection of upper levels almost
completely around the m o u n -tain.
While familiarity has
dulled the edge of wonder for
many local residents, these far
rocky reaches with glacier fin
gers clutching high are a never
failing source of amazement
and awe to those new in the
region.
Climbing Routes Vary
Mt. Hood also is an intimate
host to mountain climbers, of
fering routes to the peak that
are kind to the novice as well
as those to test the daring of
the most skillful climbers.
Skiing is the most popular
attraction of Mt. Hood, and a
modern ski lift takes skiers
high on the mountainside for
the beginning of the matchless
Magic Mile swoop down to Tim
berline lodge.
Timberline lodge at the
6000-foot level is headquar
ters for the Mt. Hood play
ground, and its accessibility
has been enhanced recently by
construction of the world's
largest and longest passenger
carrying aerial tramway.
The 36-passenger cars are
boarded at a point on State
Highway 50 near Government
Camp. A 3.1-mile ride through
a vertical distance of 2135 feet
gives a 20-minute breathtaking
view of tree and crag from a
vantage point previously un
available. The northward traveler on
the Mt. Hood Loop highway
takes a last over-the-shoulder
look at Mt. Hood and turns his
eyes ahead to Mt. Adams. This,
in the Indian legend, is the
other of the battling braves
whom the Great Spirit turned
into mountains as punishment
for brawling.
Hmwr -"J , . -I . v j

Mt. Adams rules primitive, unspoiled wilderness. T51
pheasants, quail and
Even then, the legend goes,
the bitter enemies continued
their feud, spewing flames and
rocks at each other until they
destroyed the natural rock
bridge across the Columbia,
where their "truly fair" tended
the ever-burning fire. She be
came Mt. St. Helens.
Mt. Adams. 12,307 feet, is the
more austere and forbidding of
these two old warriors standing
as sentinels over the mighty
river that carries their melting
snow waters to the sea. But
Adams is a white-blanketed,
dour-faced old Indian only to
those who approach without a
feeling for the primitive, an ap
preciation of nature unspoiled,
a realization that here is a
piece of the Old West that will
be a long time in completely
passing away. Mt. Adams is
that big.
K. u. Langfieid, tne u. s.
forest service district ranger at
Guler, points to more than 50
established camp grounds, and
other outdoor facilities, to show
that the forest service appre
ciates the potentialities of the
area.
In this area of the Gifford
Pinchot national forest there
are an abundance of streams
and lakes, where as always
the best fishing awaits those
willing to work to get at it.
The same goes for hunting on
the mountain, which abounds
in deer, bear, cougar, ducks,
.ejarsae.

grouse.
There is a popular ski run
at Trout lake also good fishing
here, and easily accessible but
skiing has not been developed
here as at Mt. Hood.
Mt. St. Helens is a 9671-foot
ice cream cone peak as viewed
from Portland. Closer to popu
lation centers than is Mt
Adams, it lies somewhere be
tween Adams and Hood for de
velopment as a vacation play
ground. Road Well Maintained '
Here, only a 105-mlIe drive 0
from Portland, is one of thej.
most enticing vacation spots of
the Pacific Northwest. The 46
mile state highway from Castle
Rock, Wash., to the lake is well
maintained.
There are two resorts on the
banks of the lake. For those
who want the facility of easy
come-and-go, and something of
modern conveniences, there is -Mt.
St. Helens lodge, situated
right where the highway first
approaches the lake, and just
below the point where water
flows from Spirit lake to form
the north fork of the Toutle
river. ,
Lovers of the primitive and
they are many may travel a
mile farther along a forest serv
ice road until they find a tele
phone in a small shelter fast
ened to a tree. Here they may
call Jack Nelson's Harmony
Falls, across the lake, and they
will be picked up by a motor
launch, only means of trans
portation between this resort
and the outside world.
Visitors at Harmony falls
build a wood fire in the morn
ing and use water taken by
bucket from Harmony Falls
creek for drinking and bathing.
They rough it with a capital
'R.'
But they get a maximum of
peace and quiet, in the giant
firs that tower above the near
by cliff from which Harmony
falls itself sends down a 200
foot cascade of clear, cold
water.
The falls' daytime roar turns
to a nighttime lullaby after a
zestful day on the lake, or hik
ing along forest trails.
