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. Americans possess the

greatest single block of power
upon earth and must learn to use
it for peace, Haycox declared.
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

BLAZE DESTROYS"
3 BUILDINGS AT
CAMP PRESCOTT
Fire about 2:50 yesterday
afternoon completely destroyed
the mess hall, kitchen and store
room at Camp Prcscott, located
about three miles east of here.
A former CCC'camp, it was be
ing used to house Mexican Na
tional agricultural workers. The
blaze apparently started in an oil
cook stove.
The chemical truck from the
Medford fire department was
taken to the scene and, with fire
fighting equipment from the
forest service, prevented the
flames from spreading to other
buildings.
A considerable quantity of
sugar, meats and other supplies
was destroyed, it was reported.
Mrs. LeRoy Ness, a clerk at
the camp, was commended by
firemen for her thoughtfulness
in moving two trucks from
garage, which was in the path of
the flames, to safety.
FRYING PAN USED TO
SMASH ASHLAND CABIN
The sheriff's office Investigat
ing vandalism which wrecked
the High cabin In the Siskiyou
foothills near Ashland, reports a
frying pan was used by the in
vaders to smash mirrors, win
dows and furniture. The bat
tered utensil was found in the
yard. There are no clues to the
identity of the vandals. They left
the interior of the cabin a shambles.
Similar treatment to cabins in
the Prospect and Eagle Point
areas have been reported to
authorities the past two weeks.
In each case, as far as deter
mined, nothing was stolen.

ber of additional persons who
