TAOE FOFRTFTST MEDFORD MAIL TRIBUNE. MEDFORD. OREGON, FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 17, 1939. CALLED 5TH ERA IN AUJ I w Los Angeles, Cnl. (U.P) Tho present war is one of five majnr periods in history since man first began knocking his neigh bor around witli a club, .acord ing to Dr. Constantino T'anun zio. professor of sociology at the University of California. Dr. Panunzio, author of "Mk- lor Social Institutions." lists these five major war periods: 1. Ancient times when war was a part of the daily routine. 2. The era of the Ftonwn Empire, when there was a par tial realization that war should be controlled. Home unified the western Vorld and created a 200-year peace. 3. The rise of Christianity and Mohammedanism, which di rectly contributed to warlike ai-, tivitios for scvrral centuries in spite of sporadic efforts of kings and pope to suppress war. 4. The close of the 15th cen tury to the beginning of the world war, during which the rise of Protestantism and the clash of imperial ambitions brought several centuries of war. 5. The beginning of the World war to the present time, which has included the Ethio pian and Albanian conquest:, the Far Eastern conflict and the expansion of German Nazism. Pantinzio finds that the pres ent war period is characterized by two phenomena. "Whereas during previous per iods," he states, "the will of the personal monarch or of a small ruling clique was sufficient to plunge countries into war, today the declaration of war with most countries rests with the people. "The second phenomenon con sists in the growing employment of propaganda by the govern ments as a means of forming the sentiments, opinions und preju dices of the people into compli ance with the aims of the rulers." t flOR ' Meteorological Report DAILY FUNERAL Funeral services for James F.

FIR. AI Hyde Park, N. Y., Nov. 18. (j)President Roosevelt laugh ed long and loudly today when reporters told him there had been considerable speculation about what he meant when, in laying the cornerstone for the Jefferson memorial in Washing ton Wednesday, he said he hoped by January, 1941. to be able to return for the dedication of the memorial itself. Slapping a hand on his knee at a press conference, the chief executive chortled that he had made the remark deliberately, but he still did not amplify it. There had been numerous at tempts to analyze his statement about January, 1941, to see whether it would throw any light on the third term issue. The president's present tenn expires January 20, 1941. The memorial will be dedicated the same month, but Mr. Roosevelt did not indicate Wednesday whether he hoped to return for that ceremony before or after January 20, or as a government official or private citizen.
