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.

Local Woman
Guest Speaker
At Grants Pass
Mrs. Justin Smith, resident of
this city, was guest speaker at
a meeting of the Grants Pass
Business and Professional Wom
en's club Tuesday at the Red
woods hotel. Her topic was
Challenge to the Americas.
Mrs. Smith outlined the prob
lems which face -the American
delegates at the Pan-American
congress being held at Rio de
Janeiro this week. She also
touched on the political and
economic status of the Central
and South American countries,
pointing out in many instances
where political relations could
be improved with the increased
trade that the presont situation
will necessitate.
Although most South Amer
ican governments are organized
as republics the speaker stated
that several countries lean to
the Axis because ready markets
are fostered for South American
products which are closed to the
United States by tariff. The
speaker felt that .iemand for
South American products in this
country would strengthen a
"good neighbor" po'icy.

In The "
Day's
. 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.

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. You can be in the front
