torest, th pathfinder, the aeeker of
gold. But lait by the pioneer home
maker.
"When th first great migration
crowed the Oregon trail, there was no
one west of the Mississippi, with au
thority to algn a legal paper. But
when It came to determining who
would dominate the new country,
what flag would protect th new
aettlera, the Stars and Stripe were
flown."
Answering the queatlon of "Why
Did America Win?" Prof. Vlnlng ald:
"There were atnlwert men In Canada.
Scotchmen. Englishmen. But the
ambition of those men was commer
cial gain. It waa not the lure of
gold alone that brought th migra
tion from th Atlantic ahore. In th
covered wagon them waa the pio
neer mother. That la your answer.
"With her ahe brought religion,
music and the love of horn life. In
many wagons, burled In their native
dirt, young fruit tree were carried.
When their root found life In the
Oregon soil, so did liberty."
So today, Mr. Vlnlng decle-ed. It is
not sufficient for the National Re
covery Administration to complete Its
cod. The aplrlt of the plonew, who
shared his laat crust of bread, -nust
be aroused again In the American
people, before th nation can suc
ceed. "Th figure in th Whit House la
that of a great humanitarian. But
unless labor learns to yield Instead
of strike. Unless capital learns to
yield Instead of Increasing gains, then
all efforts of that heroic soul will
be for nauglu."
The pioneers, their sons and dau
ghters, grandsons and granddaugh
ters, were welcomed to Ashland today
by Commissioner Ralph Billings, re
tiring prealdent of th Southern Ore
gon Pioneers. He waa assisted aa
host by Mrs. Fred Wagner, vice-president.

years, waa read by John B. Griffin,

Following th morning's program
