To the Editor:
I am surprised that the Associated
Press took seriously the diatribe by
Governor Martin about a letter which
Is alleged to have come from the
Umatilla Townsend club, or one of
its members. It Is. however. Just on
a par with the efforts being made
to discredit the plan. It reminds mc
of the story of the old lawyer's ad
vice1 to the young one.
"If the evidence 1 In your favor
and the law la against you, pound
on the evidence and forget the law.
If the law la In your favor and the
evidence Is against you. pound on
the law and forget the evidence. If
both the law and the evidence are
against you pound on the table and
abuse the opposing lawyer."
The avidity with which Governor
Martin enjoys pounding the table
and abusing the other lawyer is at
least enlightening.

j CouNt to Crater Lake
j To the Editor:
I I am not tn the habit of writing
communications to a newspaper, so
If I show no particular knack for
! It please excuse the mistake. How
1 ever I do have an iden I want to
I get before you and. if you believe
J that It Is practicable, before your
readers.
f Some time ago an uncle of mine
1 paid me a visit here and upon read
i Ing of the proposed dredging of the
' bay at Crescent City he remarked
that it would be much more prac
ticable to develop a highway straight
from the Redwood highway to Crater
Lake. I have thought a great deal
about the matter, and I woud:r If he
i wasn't right. He was a very success
' ful man and held a place of high es
teem among the citizens of his own
city (El Paso, Tex.)
So without further ado I will give
you the Idea that was worked out. I
think it would be a good Idea if the
rond would leave the const hlchway
at Eureka, Cal., and go as atrnlcht to
Crater Lake as possible. There Is.
according to my map, nn improved
rond, at present from Westchpcc.
Cal., to Thompson Creek and there
Is an Improved road of course from
Ruch to Medford. Now why can't we
connect Ruch with Thompson Creek
nnd Westchpec with Eureka and Im
prove the rond and have a satisfac
tory highway from Eureka to Crater
Lake? If then you want a tunnel
through the Sisklyous. why not bring
U. S. No. 99 over to Thompson Creek
and bring both highways through a
tunnel? I don't know how practi
cable the Idea is. but I do want to
sugiest such a highway ( Redwoods
to Crater Lake) to the people here
because I believe that It would be a
big help to Medford. I havo only
lived here a couple of years, but I
have made it my home and I want
to see it improve every wny possible.
Thanking you for considering my
suggestion, I remain

NATION'S MENACE
PASTORS WARNING'! J-
Speaking last night from the topic
"America's Most Devitalizing Men
ace," Fred M. Weatherford, pastor
evangelist, at the Church of the
N'azarene, said In part.
"Within the past ten years five
International historians were asked
the question: Will our civilization
survive? The reply of Sir William
Flinders Petrie of vnlverslty col
lege, London, Is as follows: 'If the
power of knowledge Increases more
thnn moral restraint, as It seems to
do, then knowledge will be used
selfishly for destruction. All recent
discoveries and Inventions are large
ly applied to the deterioration of
character at present.'
"Wo are too familiar with the
cause of the dilemna in which we
find ourselves, to demand much
of our time; suffice it to say that
the magnitude of mechanized In
dustry, with mal-adjusted Interna
tional trade, and an Inconslsent in
ternational monetlzatlon standard
drve us into a pocket and we find
ourselves in a maze of disaster and
wart.
"What does the future hold In
store? Where Is the Moses to break
theHrall through the wilderness?
Mnny have said President Franklin
D. Roosevelt. Truly he haa made
commendable strides in prescribing
nnd administering to an Incapaci
tated and collapsed patient, but 1
would have greater faith In Roose
velt If I were more certain thai
hla prescriptions came from the
same sources from which came the
Commandments from Moaea.
'.'The committee of 500 appointed
for research concerning changing
social conditions submitted a report
thnt warns of a woeful and devasta
ting invasion.
"Communism Is the hydro-headed
monster that seeks to overthrow the
world. It calls for the rulershlp of
an iron-handed dictator. Second,
communism makes the government
the pool and dispensary of all
wealth. Third, communism means
human enslavement, consequently
the nbolltlcn of freedom. Fourth.
It means the dismantling of the
home structure. Fifth, it means the
absolute denial of God and the de
struction of all sacred Institutions, j
"Back of such a demoralizing In
flux Is a preponderance of sin. Sin-
hntred In the human heart Is
chnrgeable for all malicious and
hurtful disturbance to society. What :
we call crime In Jurlsproduce, graft
tn politics, greed In commerce, and
lust In society, are all contrlbutlve
factors to what John the Baptist
called tho sin of the world." '
