PSGE EIGHT MEDFORD MAIL TRIBTJyE, atEDFOKD. OREGON, TUESDAY. JANUARY 28, 1936 OF JEWS RECALLS OF Leaders Hope German Brothers May Have Equa Success Similarity Be tween 2 Events Striking Br Hal Boyle Associated Press Staff Writer ST. LOUIS, Jan. 28. OP) The pro posed mass exodus of Jews from Hit ler's Germany recalled to Jewish leaden today the 40-year pilgrimage of their prophet Moaes who led his bondage-worn band many weary leagues to the promised land. They hoped without benefit of miracles for equal success, The parallel to the Biblical saga Is striking. Prominent Jews, here for an International conference on Jewish charities, emphasised the similarity between the pending migration of 100,000 or mora young Jews and the epic march made by the snow-beard' ed sage who guided hts enslaved peo ple to freedom from Pharoah's op presslon. Took Four Decades It took Moses and his followers, fed by heaven-showered manna, four decades to reaoh the land of milk and honey, after fleeing from Egypt. If It takes philanthropic Jewa In England and America who must pro. vide their own manna that long to arrange the removal of their breth ren In Germany, their cause will be lost, said Sir Herbert Samuel, former British high commissioner to Pales tine. "Nazi decrees are breaking the spir it and starving the bodies of the young Jews," he declared. "Many of the older Jews can live off their sav ings for a time, but the young peo ple, forbidden to work at their trades and professions, have no recourse- except death. They must be rehablll tated, at once, In another land If they are to be saved." 1 Pales'. i no Destination Curiously, the destination of moat of the refugees will be a section of that land toward which their fore fathers struggled In that ancient trek of centuries ago Palestine. No longer a land of "milk and, honey, modern Palestine, rapidly be coming Industrial teed, Is expected to provide an outlet for the full range of Jewish economic and cultural tal ent. . However, the main Jordan la yet to be crossed the 10.000.000 fund, to be raised by contributions In Amer ica and England, with which to fin ance the exodus. -4- TOPSEND ADDRESS xptakfca. of ODOT5- ft l?B Viij -r Ji If '42 i OF Spider Wehber Jess Wolf spends hi, spare mo. rnents poking around In dusty cor-1 nera studying spider webs, for ha 1, official spider web maker for the mov ies.

By Byron Price (Chief of Buresu, Tha Associated Press, Washington) Th, band-wagon progress of soldier bonus legislation represents one ' of tnose strange political turnings which even the polltlclana themselves find It difficult to explain. ror yeara no cause seemed more hopeless. Those who advocated the bonus, and those who would benefit directly by It, formed only a small percentage of tha entire citizenship of tha country. Tha movement faced not only a atone wall of executive opposition at Wsshlngton, but a dls couraglng tangle of outside Infiu. snces elsewhere. Tha circumstances all were against Ht. The country plainly waa tired not only of tha World war and Its con. sequences, but of all war and all thlnga martial. Times were hard, tsx payers were beset by increasing wor ries, and much of the natural sym pathy and public spirit of American Ufa waa washed out in renewed clsss antagonism and desperate individual struggle for existence. i Pour successive Presidents Vetoed bonus bills In words of emphatic protest. Organized business, alwaya a formidable political foe, threw Its full force against the proposed legis lation, and many of tha ablest and most respected men In national life condemned It aa unwise and unjust, In the face of all thla, victory perches on the bannera of the bonus bloc. Why? What has happened? Patient Effort Tha anawer la that In politics, elsewhere, there Is no substitute for that patient, persistent effort, which takes no account of momentary de feat, Is not distracted by offers of compromise, but keeps Its eyes for ever on one objective. Those who set out a decsde and a half ago for payment of the bonus never have faltered for an Instant. At every set-back they have taken what they could get, and resolved to try again for the longer haul when opportunity should offer. Demands for bonus payment whether they came ftom few or many became over the years almost an inevitable part o! the dally life of members of congress. They persisted like the ticking of tha clock, or the steady drip ol water against a stons. To many they became not only tlreaome, but a eource of worry. While aoma of tha wisest. In their reflective moments, felt that "the aoldter vote' was a myth that It never had been and never would be delivered bodily at the polls they began to weaken and to long for tha day when the constant reiteration would cease. Remarkably aoon after the payment bill failed last session tha Impression spread over Cspltol Hill that 1036 would see enactment. It waa plain that tha rank and file of congres sional opposition, and soma of Its leaders, had had enough. rolltlral Reasoning It teatifled to the political sagacity of the bonua advocatea that they con centrated so much of their pressure at the one point where actlpn could ba taken In congress rather than scattering It Ineffectively among the voters generally. What tha country at large may think about the bonus remslns in dispute. That opposition senstors and representatives have been converted need not mesn that those leglslstors think there hss been a chsnga of sentiment In their home precincts, or that a majority there favors payment. The politics! question Is a much Bachelors and Spinsters Should Foot Age Pension Bill A rgues Sociologist CHICAGO, Jan. 38. (AP) Pro fessor Frank O. Dickinson, aoclolo (1st, recommended today that taxes to meet old aga pension costs be levied on bachelors, spinsters snd childless married couples. Originator of a mathematical sys tem of rating college teams. Prof. Dickinson, of the University of Hit nols,. advanced his theory in a talk prepared for delivery before a lunch eon meeting of tha Union League club. Sociology, he sstd, recognises that no generation repays the cost of Its rearing to the parents who labored, worried and economized, but that this debt is discharged as each gen eration rears another group of children. 'Those adults who furnish no off spring dodge, avoid and refuse psy- ment for their own conception, birth snd rearing," he said. "If they refuse voluntarily to pay their debt to so ciety the state should tax them to pay the cost of old age ssslstance. "Adults without proeeny should bear thla burden! That Is social se curity with social Justice." Prof. Dickinson said ha had no definite plan of taxation to propose. but suggested that tha Federal Social Security act ba changed to provide for revenue through a tax on Incomes of the unwed and childless. Ha said ha favored th Income tax for three reasons: "1. It cannot be easily shifted back upon other citizens. "3. It is better than a poll tax be cause It la related to tha ability to pay. "8. A parent with one offspring could Da given aoma exemption! parent with two children larger ex emption, and a parent of mora than two children complete exemption. The bachelor and the bachelor girl," he said, "enjoy an unearned Increment lu our schema of dtstrlbu tlon of lncoms; they enjoy an equal ehare of tha fruits of income but do not ahoulder tha burden of perpetu ating the race. If we must make definite contractual provisions for old sge ssslstance, let the burden of it fall upon adnlta without progeny." narrower one than that. Many a con gress member, up for re-election, might have put It to himself In this fsshlon. "Suppose only a minority In my district does favor the bonus: what of it? The campaign will be fought mainly on other issues. Might not ths friendship of even a restricted group of bonus advocates be suffi cient in November to turn a delicate balance between the parties, and mssn the difference between defeat and victory?" For that tla the way practical poli tics works.

Using aa his test, Col. 1:25-28. the said In part: "Jesus Christ Is the central figure of the biblical record. He Is the foun tain head of the gospel mystery in rectifying and rehabilitating the spir itual structure of man. He U the only sin emancipator. Ha is the world's magnanimous philanthropic supernatural genius. "He said "I am come that they might have life."
