AGED 61 ' SEEN BY Country Treading Path of Rome and Greece, Klam ath Publisher Tells Rotar ians Happy Ending Seen Speaking before more than 100 Med ford and Grants Pass Rotarians and their ladles at St. Marks parish hall last night. Prank Jenkins, Klam ath Palls newspaper publisher, de clared that "we mutt reassert the powers we have been shoving off onto one man or America will end In dictatorship." Analyzing the new trends In busi ness, government, finance and labor, Jenkins said, "Por four years we nave been Increasing the powers in the hands of one man; for four years we have been drifting toward one-man government. We are tread ing the path that Rome and Greece trod In ancient days, and that Italy, Germany and Russia trod In recent years." Sees Final Turn. Closing bis address, which held the large crowd spellbound for the better part of an hour, Jenkins stated that It was his belief, however, that at the last minute "our funda mental strength of fibre and com mon sense will reassert Itself and we will gradually cure the unsound things we are doing." J Speaking of finance, Jenkins said that America, four years ago, em barked upon the greatest campaign of spending In the history of the world. The theory, be stated, was to -"take It from those who have and give it to those who haven't because the latter are better spenders. ' Row ever, he said, wealth and progress arise out of human labor; that un less - we earn our money by labor, business cannot be helped by the spending of that money because we aren't creating. Like Shot In Arm. He likened our tremendous spend ing campaign to a shot In the arm: that when the effect wore off we needed another shot, in this case, more money being spent. He stated the trend was very definite toward Inflation If we continue to spend what We don't earn. Jenkins paid special tribute to the saving man, declaring that only by saving money, be It 110 a month or 10,000, with which to purchase machinery and other production ne-! cessltlea, could we progress and make this a better country In which to live. "Taxation must follow spending." Jenkins stated. "Spending, followed by that Inevitable taxation, robs the man who thinks he la benefited by It. In the long run, It Is the man who draws the pay check that pays the taxes." Labor Too' PowerfuL Jenkins declared that labor, today, lias altogether too much power, but that capital and the employer had only Itself to blame. Por years, he said, the "boss" treated hie employes like they weren't human. Now, he aid, the balance of power has swung to the other side. He stated that he believed that out of the present laoor chaos, "employers will loam how to treat their employes like human beings Instead of commodities and .will share their prosperity with them, fts well as their hardships." , In conclusion, Jenkins said that If the relationship between employer end employe becomes more kindly, these chaotic years have not been in vain. . , The Rev. B. 8. Bart 1 run was master of ceremonies at the bauquet, troduclng Jenkins and the visiting Grants Pass Rotarlans. Mary Ann Gates and Clarence Smith snng three songs, accompanied by LUlle BUen burg. They were "Into the Dawn TVlth You," "Love Me Tonight." and "Because You're You." The songs were extremoly well received. ' Following the banquet, the gather ing enjoyed dancing and cards. Smooth Tires Are Dangerous During Wet Weather Claim . Wet weather always brings an In creasing number of auto accidents, many of them caused by smooth tires, according to Sam Jennings of the Sam Jennings Tire Co.. who has announced ft special trade in tire sale to encourage motorists to Play safe. "During this tire sale motorist can ave double by getting rash for their old tires and on the low sale price of Pink Safety-Plight tires," Jennings said. "The Pink Safety-Plight tire had all the features required by the motoring public today new .m 'proved non-skid tread, the finest quality tire structure known to the Industry. But the surprising part ol It," Mr. Jennings a Id, "la that with theso greater safety features built Into the tire and with more costlier jnaterlnl umxI In building It, the cost of mileage to the motoring pub lie has shown a marked decrease."
