IIOHT MEDFORD MAIL TRIBUNE Wdnidar- Jun. 2T, 1943 PEACE DEPENDS ON U. S., RUSSIA, Portland Author Tells Rotary Meeting Next War Will Destroy Civilization. "History ia filled with in stances of nations which went to war one time too often" said Ernest Haycox, Portland, well known author of western novels, speaking Tuesday at a combined meeting of Rotary and Klwanls clubs of Med(ord. Speaking on "The Price of Peace," Haycox declared that unless this country "rises to Us destiny" and works for peace with the same force and intensity that its people are now using for this war, the next war will destroy civilization. The novelist stated that the ' coming peace depends upon the United States and Russia and If we are to recover from this war and not be destroyed by the next we must learn to trust our allies, to adopt a foreign policy and stick to it and to be ready ' at all times, and see to it that the world knows we are ready, to use force to unhold our prin ciples.

Europe Going Ahead Haycox declared that because in the past the United States made commitments during wars and then backed out of them dur ing peace, Europe "while hoping to work with us, is going ahead with its own plans in case we sten aside. "It is our money, our indus trial machine, our men, which won this war." the speaker said, "And having buried our men In every land we now begin to say we have no business in those lands. We cannot fling our power into war and then draw back and remain idle while the world prepares for another war. "If men say that faith is much too flimsy, a thing upon which to construct a durable peace, we may answer that when faith is re-enforced by the knowledge that we must believe in each other or die, then we have faith which is stout enough to stand all kinds of shocks and disappointments and minor quar rels. Must Balance Cost "We must balance the cost of war against the cost of peace and come to some conclusions as to what we can afford to give, or not to give for the sake of peace If we want peace, we must sweat for It. Peace is not made by dele gates. ' Peace is made by the entire people of a country. It is made only when those people have a tremendous consistent and continuous desire for it and are willing to work for it." The author said that this coun try must not grow angry and suspicious during the tedious ne gotiations for peace and with draw in disgust as we did after the last war, but "take our half loaf when the full loaf is not to be had." First Problem Met In conclusion Haycox said "The first of our problem, this war, we have met and history shall never be able to say that we did less than was expected of us. We must now take this power which is American and these principles and apply them to the struggle for peace, If we fail to do it there will come a day when future generations will say 'those were small, blind people who threw away the des tiny of a country. " Prolonged applause followed the writer's talk. He was intro duced by E. S. Philips, president of the Rotary club which had in vited him to appear, with Ki- wanians as guests for the meet ing. Preceding the talk Haycox was given an honorary life mem bership in the Sheriff's Mounted 3 RATION SAVE YOUR TIRES WITH 7(re$fone Factory-Method RECAPPING .. 6.70 Ftm Impaction!
