Newspaper Page TextMEDFORD MAIL TRIBUNE. MEDFORD. OREGON. FRIDAY, JANUARY 16, 1942. PAGE FTVI DEMOCRACY SAFE O WHEN CHRISTIAN, PASTOR STATES In a recent message Rev. Fred M. Weatherford, pastor of the local Church of the Nazarene, said In part as follows: "Every country, in recent years, that adopted the totalitar ian form of government such as Fascism, Communism, and Naz ism, sprang from a national breakdown of the Christian faith. Having gone into spiritual bankruptcy, a crusade against God and salvation by faith is the present harvest. This is paganism. "Our forefathers were instru mental in making God the throne of human life. Christian democ racy will prevail in America if this inheritance is perpetuated. But, to continue our mode of life with an ever widening gap in departing from God we will become increasingly pagan, and eventually find ourselves taking the form of one of our European enemies. "Democracy Is the child of Christianity. The logical Infer ence is, therefore, if and when Christianity ceases to prevail in the hearts of our people, democ racy will cease. It is up to the public today, by iU patronage, to help the church re-Christianize civilization. God is seeking to reveal Himself through a spir itualized church. In the midst of a decaying world. "The world has gone out of gear with God. This sets man j adrift to revolve in a world of his own fashioning. Such an ex perience sets him agog in time, and his self-evolved air castle is I due to crack up, on the bar of eternal justice, when his fuel of life has been exhausted. "Light from the Bible does not confront us with a theory of dest iny, merely, but with spiritual crisis that makes destiny. If man is both willing to sanction and do the will of God he will be happy in the pursuit and termi nation of life in such a course. The doing of His will is the crisis point, at which the unity of man with God breaks through the confusion of things and emerges with an understanding of eter nal light and life." Adv.

News By Frank Jenkins THERE'S a lull in the shooting tnriav fWednpcriav). A al ways, when the shooting lulls, talk rises. That is perfectly normal. Shooting and talking have worked together in war as far back as the records go. MAVY Secretary Knox, talking ' to the reporters at his press conference, says: "These stories of internal un rest in Germany are SPURIOUS and are being deliberately spread to take the edge off America's war effort." He adds: "German withdrawals In Rus sia should not be regarded as a sign of a German debacle. There has been hasty retirement, but I don't believe there Is a German rout in Russia." fti the other side of the fence, "usually reliable inform ants" In Europe say today that German reverses on the Russian front have upset the whole axis apple cart. Germany, they add, wants des perately to get the Italian fleet through the Dardanelles to smack the Russian fleet in the Black sea, but Turkey, Impress ed by Russian successes, is sit ting tight as the guardian of the gate. Travelers from France and elsewhere in Europe report that the nazl forces moved recently into France and to the Spanish frontier are battle battered troops from the eastern front and are replacing fresh troops which are being moved to the Russian and Bulgarian fronts. yAKE your choice. This writer has an idea the truth lies somewhere between the skepticism voiced by Knox and the wishful thinking arising out of Hitler's definite failure to smash Russia this winter. GERMANY has had a hard jolt in Russia, but Is FAR FROM LICKED. Napoleon got a harder jolt In Russia than Hitler has got, com ing out with only a shattered remnant of the veteran army he went in with. But he left his demoralized army inside the Russian border, hastened back to Paris, put down an incipient revolution, raised a new army, hastened back across the Rhine and fought for nearly two years, winning most of the actual bat tles, before being finally finish ed off and sent into exile. The thing that finished Napo leon off was superiority in num bers and equipment on the part of his enemies, so that wherever he turned he faced TOO MANY MEN AND GUNS. That is what will finish Hitler. On the home front, we have a new deal a war production board that supplants the old supply priorities and allocations board. Donald M. Nelson, former mail order house man, is to be its chairman and FDR an nounces that his decision as to questions of procurement and production will be FINAL. IVHEN your business faces an " emergency, you hire the best man you can lay hands on and tell him to go ahead and get results. That is what the U. S. Is doing. Nelson is the man, and ap parently he's being told to go ahead and get results. IN our part of World War 1. Bernard M. Baruch was the man. He and his war industries board did their job so well that in his memoirs Field Marshal von Hindenburg acknowledged grudgingly: "They (Baruch and his war industries board) UNDERSTOOD WAR." NELSON says: Our goal is to substitute 'too much, too soon' for too little, too late.' " He adds: "We're going to build so many planes and tanks that after this is all over those of us who had anything to do with it are going to be criticized because we BUILT TOO MUCH." THEY will, too. We yell for a superman, and when the emergency is safely past we put our superman in the pan and fry him to a crisp. That's the way of democracies. It's an INFINITELY BETTER way than saying: "Yes, Mister" to PERMANENT dictators. LEND LEASE COIN 10 LATIN LANDS Washington, Jan. 16 (P) Costa Rica, now building it! first army, was allotted $550,000 of lend-lease funds today to buy arms. In another step to strengthen central American defenses, the public works administration ap proved a $20,000,000 'oan to Honduras, Nicaragua, Guatema la, El Salvador and Costa Rica to help build the vlt?l Pan American Highway. RADIO QUIZ AND REQUEST PROGRAM Enemy Spies Might Use As Means To Relay Vital Data. Washington, Jan. 16. Regulations to keep enemy spies from broadcasting military data i to lurking submarines oi secret stations over impromptu radio programs were issued today by the office of censorship. Censorship Director Byron Price called on broadcasters to ban certain types of quiz and request programs and conduct forums and audience Interviews with caution. In response to specific In quiry, the censorship office explained informally that such programs as Vox Pop, Dr. I. Q Take It Or Leave It, and Double Or Nothing could be continued The broadcasting Industry, the office said, has abandoned the "man-in-the-street" and Informal types of quiz. It was asked that no telephone or telegraph requests for musi cal numbers be accepted during the war, and that no given request be given at the request ed time. Request was made that "all audience-participation type quiz programs originating from re mote points, either by wire, transscriptlon or short wave, be discontinued" with certain qual ifications. It was noted that any program permitting the public access to an open microphone "Is dangerous and should be carefully supervised" and that generally speaking "a'ny quiz program originating remotely, The danger teaton It here.
