Communications Disquieting 1 To the Editor: Last month an Illuminating mee aage waa brought to Oregon by Mr. Patmont, a Protestant Chrlatlan mln later and lecturer on the menace of communism. With calm, dispassion ate delivery, he emphasized and Ulua trated many significant facta that have a pertinent beari:i upon the political crisis of this perloa. The flrat two evenings were given to the discussion of communism and bolshevlam. being Illustrated by pho tographs recently taken by himself, that were as convincing aa they ware nlnvahla Of RmMn hlfMMl himself and avowedly not antl-Semetlo In hla convictions, yet ne warned an Aryan nrilsnM .hat.

On the acreen and over the air. we do not get tho plcturea that reveal th. hikii.h ancletv In Soviet Russia, but Mr. Patmont presented scenes Ol persecuLea wiiimhb, the noglected, the dead and the dy- Inn nf nr.Mnt.rl.V Hll..lfl. He Impreased his audience with tha fact that America, while aufferlng h umr.f. ri.nMuinn In her hlatorv. la yet a happy, comfortable place In which to live, compared witn tvuasia under the rule ot Stalin and hla Marxian prlnolplea of government. One scene of Russian youth, revealed a vaat throng of well-fed and clothed children, lifting their clenched flata to heaven, aa they formally denied Qod. The guilt of thla enforced rit ual rests upon their communlat teachers, and. though we may be sufficiently Chrlat-llka to aay "Fath mr fnraiva them for thev know not what they do," yet we must aa true Christians ana American dare to face the facta and no longer niH. nup henri. tn the ahlftlnu aanda of Indifference or Ignorance.

Juhoaos, Comment on the Day s News By FRANK JF.NKIN3 lHARLET HORTON came to tha southern Oregon country with hla parenta about 1670: he belm then Juat a ohlld. They settled In Poe valley, across thu mountalna and Just north of tha California Una. The Indiana were restleaa and men. aclng, so their flrat Job after build- ing a cabin waa to erect a stockade around It. THIS atockade was built according tO the Dattem rnmmnn -M the Wast that la, by aharpenlng logs to a point and driving them Into tha ground aide by side so aa to mate a wall. The stockade wis built clear around the house, and the bam wag Just outside It. On thla stockade, they did a rather fancy Job, digging a ditch around It and filling the ditch with water. The ditch thua served the purposes of a moat, like those surrounding the me. dleval castles. The purpose of the moat waa to check attackers who might try to scale the walla. The walla of the stockade wer pierced at atrateglo points by nar row portholes through which tha de fenders could thrust thlr guns. THE Modoc war broke out only a little more than two years after the Hortona arrived, and thla atock ade became a refuge for the neigh borhood. At the outbreak of the disturbance. aa Charley recalls It, the government distributed to the settlera a aupply or old "needle" guns, along with am- ; munition for them, and these mine were placed In rack around th walla, boxes ox ammunition wer broken open and everything waa placed In readlneaa for defense. A it happened, no Indiana came Into Poe valley, but the atockade wa nevertheless a great comfort. , 4 DRIVINO through peaceful Poe val ley today. It's hard to reallm tne tension that existed there back In the early 70a, with no one know ing .when riding band of Indiana might appear. But it Isn't particularly hard to Imagine th thrill young Charley Horton must have been getting out of It all. He wa too young to real lie the danger, but Juat the right age to soak up all the excitement. His eyes light up yet when he tell of It. THE8H old "needle" gun were con verted muzzle-loaders. They had hinged breech-block, with a catch at the side, and thla breech-block: lifted up alter the gun wa fired for the ejection of the empty ahell. A long firing pin ran diagonally down through the breech-block, and It was from this that they took the name "needle" gun. Th cartridge waa about half a long again aa grown person's finger, and tha bullet wa a big, husky slug that did thing to whatever It bit. When fired, It made noise like a young cannon. THE war ended. The Modoc were returned to th reservation. The excitement died down. But th gov. ernment failed to pick up all these old gun. For which, ot course, th kids were duly grateful. Cleaning one of these old musket on day, long after the Indian ex citement had subsided, young Char ley stuck a rag in It, along with the ramrod (which wa heavy steel af. fair) and all hi (ffort couldn't get It out. So he did what every other kid would have done under the cir cumstance he prepared to ahoot it out. But he waa cautious. Be extracted th bullet from a cartridge, shoved th cartridge Into th chamber, and then braced the butt against tree, pointing th muzzle up toward a hill behind th house. After that, he tied a string to th trigger, cocked th gun, retired 10 or IS feet and gav a yank, . " CAN hear yet th roar that old 1 gun mad when it went off," he alad to thla writer yesterday. "It sounded louder than a big Sliit. AsO up on th aide ot th hill that old steel ramrod kicked up a dust Ilka a band of horses. "But It dldnt bust th barrel, or van bulge it. and we cleaned th gun out and went on using It."
