Millenium Warning Given by Evangelist v Describing history as a drama in which the entire world is the stage and every member of the human family an actor, Evan gelist Harold E. Metcalf told a capacity crowd in the Bible aud itorium, 910 South Central, Sun day night that the long-looked for time of peace will be ex perienced by those only who en list with Christ before he comes on his triumphal tour. He declared that the opinion held by many that the world's conversion would usher in the millenium was refute! by the Bible, which, he said, shows that the nearer the end of the world approaches, the more wicked, un believing and God-defying the world will become. Using visual aids, Mr. Metcalf told his audience that there would be only two classes, those who believe the devil, and those who have faith in Christ's writ ten guarantee of an eternity of peace, happiness and security.

MAIL TRIBUNE Editorial Correspondence San Franciaco, March 28 As went all-out for isolationism in No "yes-buts." He threw away his 1 frounce gloves and went after the United Nations, the Marshall Plan, economic and military aid to Europe and all the rest of the enlightened collective-security plan with bare knuckles. WHY did the Senator from tion in VS. News & World Report play down his isolationism al most to the vanishing point, and even sanction war with Russia (in case of attack); while in Wisconsin he returned to his pre-cam-paign proposal of national "selfishness" letting Europe fight her own battles, and Uncle Sam shrewdly husband his resources for a rainy dayT , The answer is simple. Ever since World War I Wisconsin has been known as the leading isolationist state in the country. The large foreign population there, particularly of German origin, has been consistently and militantly such a stand will bring him votes. ine having in the White House at such a critical time, as this, a man who would descend to such cheap demagoguery as that? a e Senator Wayne florae has come and gone. We would have liked to have seen him but he was in too much of a rush, giving a speech and holding one press conference, at hours and places that couldn't be adjusted to Ye Editor's schedule. According to "The Chronicle" our junior Senator said he is strong FOR Eisenhower and strongly AGAINST Taft Morse thinks if the former gets the GOP nomination he will be elected by the greatest plurality ever given an American President, while if the GOP politicians gang up at Chicago and prevent this, the ion of this department Wayne as usual is 100 right ASSUMING, of course, that the same politicians nominate the Senator from Ohio. We are not so sure if Governor Warren should be chosen as a compromise GOP candidate. The more we learn regarding War ren the better we like him. (It's a small matter but we do wish he would stop calling his attractive daughter "Honey Bear," just as we wish H.S.T. would stop calling HIS attractive daughter "Baby.") e e e e However, with a Daddie's "BABY" in the White House, it would not be quite so incongruous to have a "Honey-BEAR" there. The A.A.A. box-fight tournament formerly the "Golden Gloves" ended last night with as fine a program of the art of self defense and concentrated MAYHEM as your correspondent has ever had the privilege of witnessing. There were 19 final matches, each of three rounds and 99 of them, touch-and-go, punch-and-counter-punch, slam-and-be-slammed from the first gong to the last Ira Blue one of our favorite sports announcers was one of the judges (the best looking and best dressed one, incidentally) and he plugged the show over the air as something no true box-fight fan should miss. Ira was right. Instead of having to fork up $50 moreover for a ring-side seat the maximum was $3! The one outstanding contribution of this performance was the absence of professionalism the genuine amateur spirit which in sports, is as Ty Cobb recently remarked, the "sine qua non." When the amateur spirit goes the life-blood of sport goes. The boys did not get money, they got medals (if they won) and a probable free trip to Boston. (Only the more promising will be on the final team, however.) How these lads did work for that free trip and the medal they were in there literally willing to die for dear old Rutgers all the time. Some that failed just couldn't keep back the tears. Some that won couldn't repress a war dance to the dressing rooms. (Where is Mac L. now? Hope he still reads the M.T. wherever he is.) ee.ee There was, however, one surprising and depressing factor the poor physical condition of so many of the contestants. With the desire to win so intense this was hard to understand. Why did so few of the boys cut out cigarets and seriously train? Our guess is 99 of those who did, won, and poor condition was the main cause of the defeats. Is it true as army records indicate that American youth is deteriorating physically. Let us hope and pray not, for when physical deterioration starts, moral deterioration is not far behind and vice versa! If "Mr. Republican" can't get the Maine delegation, just what can he get outside of those colored boys in the Solid South that can be bought? He might win (by the aid of McCarthyism) in Wiscon sin, and still be a hopeless "Also Ran" before the Chicago conven tion opens. Just how dumb will the voters of Wisconsin prove to be? How many will vote for Taf t's isolationism on the assumption that such a theory of national selfishness and cowardice will be to their self-interest? Once again Mr. Republican maintains we can recall all Ameri can troops from Europe, rely solely on our navy and air force and still keep the Russians the other side of the iron curtain. WHAT WITH? Any grade school student of history could pulverize this sort of specious argument in a 100-word thesis. What happened in Korea when we had complete control of the air and sea? The U.S-A. suffered one of the most complete and humiliating defeats in its history. Without U.S. ground troop aid no country or countries in Europe could stop the Russian march to the English channel for a minute much less throw it back. And nothing is more certain than this: Once assured that the Taf t program would be carried out, the Kremlin would do what it has always done when weakness present ed the opportunity MARCH IN FIFTH COLUMN TAKE OVER! Ask the people of Czechoslovakia, Poland, Finland, Lithuania, Esthonia, Bulgaria and Rumania what they think of such a policy? It is incredible that any American statesman or any sane American adult for that matter could seriously advance any such suicidal policy with the facts of lif e and history what they are. Presumably the voters of Wisconsin dont want another world war, the people of America certainly don't. But could ANY program more surely guarantee It than this notice to the world, that the United States in case of a Russian attack, would refuse to raise a hand to stop it, EXCEPT via naval and air support? Imagine wriat the cynical and shrewd old boys in the Politburo are saying to themselves as they read this sort of prospectus by the leader of one of the two major political parties in the United States and a man who is still confident that this sort of cheap poltroonery will land him a free room-and-bath in the White House! (With a third World War on their hands where would the people of Wisconsin file those political promises of world peace and re duced taxes, of March 1952?) Three days ago it was 83 in the shade. This morning, the sun is still shining, but the mercury only a short time ago was only ten degrees above freezing. No wonder the clothing stores around the bay do a land-office business. Those who dress according to the weather instead of the calendar and most people do surely have to have a varied assortment in their wardrobes, all the way from cotton cords to red flannels from shorts to mint;. Much amused to observe the scare-head banners on the morn ing papers with the shocking and even more SURPRISING an nouncement that a killer whale hit hnnt in turr, 4k. .w - shores of Petaluma.

Matter of Fact THE FRIGHTENED PROFESSIONALS Washington One more dis aster to the candidacy of Sen. Robert A. Taft, like the major setbacks in New Hampshire, Minnesota and New Jersey, and the political base on which Taft stands is likely to turn into quicksand. This political base has consisted, of course, of the support of the orthodox Repub lican regulars nationally, and of the key organization men in the states. And this base is by no means made of solid rock, and never has been. The great majority of the Re publican regulars whose support is absolutely essential to Taft have been a good deal more cautious than is generally real ized. A check in Taft's own spe cial bailiwick, the United States Senate, shows how very care ful those generally identified as Taft men have in fact been. Consider the following list of names: Senators Butler, Cain, Case, Condon, Dworshak, Ecton, Hickenlooper, Jenner, Kem, Ma lone, Martin, Mundt, Seaton, Welker, Williams and Young. Surely the political and ideologi cal leader of these men is Sen. Taft, and they might be expect ed to be out on the firing lines, doing battle for their hero. Not a single one of these Taft col leagues is publicly committed to support of the Taft candidacy, although almost all of them would certainly like to see him nominated. Even Sen. Joseph McCarthy has conspicuously failed to return Sen. Taft's pub lic embrace. WHAT is true of the Taft minded men in the Senate is just as true of the key organi zation regulars in the states. If anything, indeed, they have been more cautious. An occas ional professional, like Henry Zweifel, of Texas, or John E. Jackson, of Louisiana, is pub licly committed to Taft, just as an occasional senator, like Homer Capehart, of Indiana, and Everett Dirksen, of Illinois, has made the leap. But the great majority of the organization men have carefully left themselves an escape hatch, however much they may favor Taft in private. Moreover, a certain tentative groping towards the escape hatch has very recently become noticeable. Pennsylvania's Ma son Owlett, for example, of the famous Grundy-Owlett machine, and Michigan's shrewd National Committeeman, - Arthur . Sum merfield, have both been con sidered strongly Taft-minded, especially the former. Now they are reported in "friendly con tact" with the Eisenhower forces. And this groping for the escape hatch is certainly going on elsewhere. . A couple of . months before the New Hampshire primary Time magazine published a state-by-state report of the com parative strength of Taft and Eisenhower. In its current issue, "Newsweek" does the same thing. The two reports make some interesting contrasts in a number of states. For example: ALABAMA. Time": Taft has eight or ten." "Newsweek": "Eisenhower has at least nine of the state's eleven votes. He may get all eleven." GEORGIA. "Time": "National Committeemen Harry Sommers has made the jump for Taft." Newsweek": "It s now probable that Taft won't get more than one or two of the seventeen delegates, with Eisenhower get ting the rest" e e TLLINOIS. Time": "All Taft" A "Newsweek": "Now it's prob able that pro-Ike delegates will be elected in three districts." MONTANA. Time": Taft will get the Montana delegation unless there is a dramatic move for Die." "Newsweek": "It's likely that five will be for Ike, three for Taft" SOUTH CAROLINA. Time": "All Taft" ; "Newsweek": How the state votes will depend on which group (pro-Taft or pro- Eisenhower) the courts recog nize." VIRGINIA. Tim t": Taft Cy Poland Co) r Stewart A bee claims the state. . . ." "News week": Virginia "probably will vote for whoever seems most likely to win." And so on. What this means, of course, is that the profession als are getting nervous, espe cially in the south, where being for the winner is all important. Any loud noise like the noise of Taft falling flat on his face in Nebraska or Wisconsin could flush the professionals in a covey, like so many fright ened quail, in the direction of Eisenhower. This is, of course, precisely the objective of the Eisenhower forces, who might also flush the covey by pulling off a grand slam, by publicly capturing a. couple of key states like Pennsylvania and Michi gan. Here it must be said, of course, that Taft still holds the bulk of the professionals and organization men , nervous though they may be, and that he still holds the lead in com mitted or half-committed dele gates. He is certainly not to be counted out this early in the game. But it is at least true that he has lost his room for maneuver. In New Hampshire, Minnesota and New Jersey he took three long steps backward. He cannot afford any more such setbacks. Now he can only move forward, if he is to move at all. (Copyright, 1952, New York Herald Tribune, Inc.) Alaska Narcotics Situation Claimed Horrible by Police Anchorage, Alaska (U.R) Anchorage Police Chief T. H. Miller says the narcotics situa tion in Alaska is "horrible." He attributed the "rampant growth" of the trade to neglect of Alaska law enforcements by officials in Washington, D. C. "I asked the American Legion post here Friday to help me in getting some action," he said. "Outside of Anchorage narcotics peddlers and criminals are oper ating at will. It s a horrible sit uation." Washington "Unconcerned' Miller complained that Wash- l n g t o n "seems unconcerned" about the Alaska narcotics prob lem. He said he had sent a letter to the treasury department urg ing that additional federal agents be sent to the territory, "but nothing was done." - There now is only one federal narcotics agent in the entire ter ritory, he said. . End Asked to Enlisted Men Used as Servants Washington CU.R) House in vestigators demanded Monday that the armed forces stop using enlisted men as domestic ser vants. They also said admirals and generals should not be allowed to move 12 tons of personal goods at government expense when being transferred. ' Chairman Herbert C. Bonner, D.-N.C, of a House executive expenditures subcommittee call ed on the House military appro priations subcommittee to cut military funds by 10 per cent to eliminate "doo-daddles and du plication." Bonner, whose group has been investigating military spending for more than 18 months, made his plea before a secret session of the appropriations group last Friday. Dogs of Eagle Point Ordered Restricted Eagle Point City Recorder Sam F. Coy today called atten tion of dog owners to the city ordinance which requires ' all dogs being kept on leash or tm the owner's premises during the period from April 1 to July L n the Day's Hem By FRANK JENKINS S Ho! Hum! The news, as this is written, it strictly that kind of news. KOREA, for instance: In Washington, Vfce-Ad-miral Cassady tells the . House Appropriations committee that naval aviation is doing more shooting in Korea THAN IT DID IN THE OFFICIAL WAR AGAINST JAPAN. He adds: " "So far to Korea we've fired about half as much ammunition, dropped two-thirds as many bombs and fired MORE rockets than we did in the entire Pacific war from 1941 through 1945. . . . Up to now in Korea, 309 navy planes have been lost to enemy action, all but one to ground fire." WE COULD take another war, if one was forced on us. But heaven preserve us from another police action.' P LITICS: Governor Stevenson of Il linois tells a reporter four rea sons why he doesn't want to run for president (on the Democratic ticket): 1. He can't let down the men who have joined him in his state of Illinois administration. 2. He doesn't want to go through the struggle of deciding whether to seek, another job. 3. His work as governor of Illinois is not yet finished. 4. His withdrawal from the Illinois primary (for governor) would - cause complete chaos among the people supporting him. i TN THE interest of complete candor he should have added: "But I'll TAKE the presiden tial nomination if it's handed to me on a platter." piTHICS: Up in Tacoma a young woman (age 26) heaved a rock through a tavern window and made off with EIGHT STEAKS. Hauled in by the cops, she ex plained that she took the steaks because she was hungry. SO WAS HER DOG, she added. I SUPPOSE it never occurred to her to GET A JOB (wash ing dishes or something) and pay for the steaks. Such is the modern world. Work is about the last thing we think of. T AW enforcement: The federal government sold a Portland building for merly owned by two Oregon SLOT MACHINE OPERATORS who are now serving federal prison terms for TAX FRAUD. . . . The government says they owed $997,000 IN FEDERAL TAXES. TN OREGON, we forbid gam- bling in every possible way starting with the state consti tution and going on down through state law and munic ipal ordinances. But we LOOK THE OTHER WAY while a couple of slot ma chine racketeers take from the people so much gambling money that their FEDERAL TAXES ALONE run up to nearly a mil lion dollars. IT SEEMS to me it's about time for Oregon to become an honest woman either stop gam bling or legalize it 'C'CONOMICs! In Corvallis Paul V. Maris, former director of the Oregon Extension service, outlines at a banquet five general objectives for rural leaders: 1. Understand world-wide re lationships. - - . 2. Know what it means to feed the world's ever-increasing population. 3. Realize that concepts must be continually changed to meet changing conditions. - 4. Have greater consideration for the community and social aspects of rural life. 5. Consider the changes forced on us by having achieved a con siderable degree of agricultural maturity. TIE SHOULD have added one more: Realize that there is no such thing as something for nothing. If we accept subsidies from gov ernment, WE'LL HAVE TO GIVE UP SOME OF OUR LIB ERTIES. February Traffic Accidents increase Chicago (U.R) The National Safety Council has announced that traffic accidents took an up ward turn in February, killing 12 per cent more persons than during the corresponding month last year. Automobile accidents took 2, 530 lives this February as com pared with 2,260 for the same month in 1951, the council said. Even if February lasted its usual 28 days there would still have been an increase of eight per cent, the safety council said.

Truman's Retirement May I ncrease Chance For Party Harmony By LYLE C WILSON Washington (U.PJ The great political organization Franklin D. Roosevelt created and willed to Harry S. Truman was leader- less Monday and dividing for bitter North-South conflict over party policies- Platform principles seemed to outweigh personalities in the first confusion following Presi dent Truman s announcement that he would retire. Better Harmony Seen But some Democrats including men of the South hope and be lieve Mr. Truman's retirement offered a better chance for even tual party harmony than had existed before. The president withheld en dorsement of a Democrat to suc ceed him. Mr. Truman's choice, how ever, was reported to be 52-year-old Gov. Adlai E. Stevenson of Illinois. A White House official stated that to be a fact. The president himself made no hint of his choice when he revealed Saturday night that he would not run again. Stevenson Silent Stevenson told the United Press that "I can't discuss what has transpired" between him and the president. He said he had not talked to Mr. Truman since his retirement announce ment, but that other Democratic leaders had brought consider able pressure on me to run." He insisted that the only poli tical job he "seeks" is reelection as governor. Asked directly whether he would accept the nomination. if it were offered to him, he replied that "I'll have On The Side (Distributed by Kinj If I were dead, and in my place Some fresher youth designed To warm you with new fires and grace Those arms I left behind: Fortune and good looks you might find And greater men than I: But my true resolved mind They never shall come nigh. For I not for an hour did love. Or for a day desire. But with my soul had from above Thus endless, holy fire. Vanghaa. Am still active in trying to assemble a greater number of songs for a Father's Day medley. The complaint as to the scarcity of father songs in comparison to the plentitude-of mother songs has long been voiced. However, nobody seems to do much about it. Incidentally, when John Mc Cormack was in his heyday he invited his father and mother to attend a concert he was giving in Dublin. John's singing of "Mother Machree" was the hit of the occasion. After the con cert John's father said to him: "Have you no father songs to sing?" At the next concert which his father and mother attended John sang that touching ballad titled "A Father's Early Love." Timing a Kiss How munch shorter is the kiss a man gives his sister, his aunt or his cousin than the one he bestows upon his sweetheart? How long must a kiss last to be accurately described as "passion ate"? This question came up in a recent divorce case. A husband who spied on his wife saw her kissing another man. He testified the kiss lasted thirty seconds. The judge said a kiss lating that long could rightly be decribed as "a passionate embrace.' How long did that goodbye kiss you gave your wife this, morning last? It's none of my business but you had better watch out. Your wife may start clocking your kisses to check whether or not your love is growing cold. Argument As to whether whisky is young or old, the average drinker can not determine by the taste. He goes by the label. That's what one group of distillers of Scotch whisky claimed. They practical ly proved their point by a test participated in by some eminent British drinkers. Much to the surprise of these drinkers .they found themselves unable to dis tinguish between young and old 1 A 1 X. 4r i ( X). CONGER - MORRIS - Funeral Directors Ambulance Service -West Main at Sixth Medford Member National Selected Morticians by Invitation to cross that bridge when I come to it" Friends believe Vice President Alben W. Barkley will become a candidate. One of them said Barkley probably would an nounce his decision early this week. He thought it would be yes. Barkley is 74 years old. Three United States senators Kefauver of Tennessee, Russell of Georgia and Kerr of Oklaho ma already were avowed can didates when Mr. Truman an nounced he would quit. Their campaigns quickened instantly. Favorite sons and other candi dacies were popping up like spring's tulips. Republicans took the Truman news with mixed emotions. Some agreed with Sen. Robert A. Taft that Mr. Truman would be the Democrat's strongest can didate. Others speculated on a weakening of the Southern Dem ocratic rebellion with Mr. Tru man going to the showers. Some Eisenhower-for-president men believe Southern Democratic discontent could make votes for Ike. Means Little to Congress Mr. T r u m a n's retirement meant little so far as this session of congress was concerned. His general domestic program was stymied, anyway. Congress planned to deal with must ap propriations and foreign busi ness before scattering to cam paign. From the deep South came warning that Mr. Truman's re tirement was not enough. The 1952 Democratic platform must also acknowledge state's rights if bitter party strife is to be avoided . By f. V. Durling Feat u ret Wdicate, tnc) whisky. The discussion was in spired by the fact that the Scotch Distillers Association op poses the export of any whisky less than three years old. The Independent Distillers Associa tion of Great Britain urges the export of younger liquor, claim ing drinkers, especially those in the United States of America wouldn't know the difference. So They Say The lucky numbers of Aquar ius (January 20-February 18) people are three and four. Lucky day is Wednesday. However, if you are an Aquarian and you go out to Jamaica on a Wednesday and play three and four, in the daily double and lose, don't blame me. Blame the stargazers. Scorpio (October 23-November 21) people are often fortunate in inheriting wealth and property. But if they want to live long to enjoy it they should avoid highly seasoned foods and alcoholic liq uors. A Libra (September 23-Oc-tober 22) woman is usually hap py when married to a man born under Leo, Saggitarius, Aquarius or Gemini. But never complete ly so unless her husband earns more than $10,000 a year and she doesn't have to do any house work. A Libra woman would rather have a maid than a tele vision set. A Cancer (June 21 July 22) woman would rather have the television set. Or so say the stargazers. Best Dressed The world's best dressed Duchess is the Duchess of Kent This smart looking noblewoman is 45 years old and is known as "the elegant Duchess." She is five feet, six inches in height and has a figure like Rhonda Flem ing. She believes that, to some extent, she owes the permanent possession of her youthful con tour to a Scotch masseuse. It is said the Scotch massage experts are even better than the Scandi navians. The Duchess is slightly superstitious. She favors sap phires as jewelry, thinks they are lucky. By the way, how did Turkish cigarets lose so much of their popularity? The Overland Telegraph com pany established communication between San Francisco and New York on Oct. 24, 1861.
