It is in reply to a "Letter To Germany print ed in this space some weeks ago and, because of its descrip tion of Christmas in Germany, was thought to be particu- -larly appropriate for publication this Christmas eve.) Dear Eric ' It really looks like my friend in faraway Oregon has been very busy those last months . . . Whenever I had time I followed the election campaign in your country, in our newspapers as well as in American magazines I could pick up at news stands. Now this hard-fought battle in Oregon and the other states is over. Consequently I could tell you something about German provincial elections they definitely were interesting and even important in Bavaria and Hesse but as you know, our last big election was in September, 1953, the date when we arrived in New York. 1MEANWHILE, however, another more peaceful YA campaign has started all over the world: It's Christmastime! You might like, Eric, to. hear something about Christmas customs in my home country. Don't be as tonshed when I start with our newspaper, which you remember covers the area between the Lake of Con stance and the Black Forest. Last week in our editor ial staff we thought about a special Christmas story we could offer our readers. Y We found one, and it was not fiction. The idea is this: There' are 23 children in Konstanz who don't have parents. They are living in nurseries and the lovely boys and girls' never received Christmas gifts from a happy father or loving mother. 7 VERY day, therefore, brief stories of these youngsters in order to inter est childless people in them. Surprisingly, the result was great every morning We should like to adopt love to make Irmgard our still free?" Can you imagine how see the eyes of the kids shining under the Christmas i ii i i j i j tree in uie nomes oi ineir new parents. N December 6, there wasStNikoIausdayinSoutb w ern Germany. In my home town it is Ueberling en, only 10 miles from here across the lake they have a lovely old custom. During six evenings the kids go to church with burning ral, built in the 14th century, the minister holds a St. JNiKolaus service every nignt. The children sing Christmas carols, their faces reflecting their joy m the light of hundreds of colored candles. Particularly I like to see Protestant and Catholic boys and girls en joying, together, this old Advent custom. Advent is the most mysterious season of the year over here. Days are so short; the surface of the Lake of Constance is covered with fog. Perhaps only once a week', when it isn't raining or snowing, you can see the snowcapped peaks of the Swiss, Austrian and Ba varian Alps surrounding the gray water of the lake. Nature seems to be dead. But there is life inside the narrow paved-stoned streets, before the shiny small shop windows, and under the high roofs of medieval- styled houses. P VERY morning, the children before they go to " school, open a window in the colorful advent cal endars which are pinned to the wall beside their beds. Only ten days, then eight days, then four, three, two days until Cristmas . eve. ' spends all her time in the cookies m the wood-heated baking oven. On Sundays, after supper, father lights the four candles of the ad vent wreathy and mother work a foretaste of Christmas. In this way the days pass almost too fast and one night the last window of the Advent calendar has been opened:. Christmas eve has come! THE lights in the offices, workshops and factories are off: There are only the candlelights of the big Christmas tree to be seen in every house. It is the night wher? all people sing "Stille Nacht, Heilege Nacht." - ' :Y . . . Let me say good bye gnt, and once more: Frohe Weihnachten und ein glueckliches Neues Jahr. My best wishes for you and your family. e.

The suggested scripture reading for today is: Revelation 21. For Saturday, Christmas day, Luke 2:1-20. in the Day's News By FRANK JENKINS The stock market whose averages are already far up the mountain, in areas where no stock price average ever trod before GOES HIGHER. 1 WONDER if that's good news constructive news. I can't help doubts. I'm afraid it will start people to thinking about EASY MON EY. That's dangerous as wit ness 1929. - THE next time you get to thinking wishfully about easy money and reflecting on what a sap you are to work so hard and maybe leaning a lit tle toward the demagogue poli ticians and the fuzzy-minded economists who keep promising you something for nothing it might be a good idea to recall this passage from Genesis: "And unto Adam the Lord God said: ... 'In trie sweat of thy brow shalt thou eat bread...'" , SO MUCH for the stock mar ket. Let's take a quickie look at the commodity markets. In. general, they're a little on the up side. . In the big midwest markets, hogs are 25, cents lower to 50 cents higher (depending on the grade). Cattle are generally steady to 25 cents higher. New York wholesale meat prices are steady. Butter in New York is up three-quarters of a cent. IS THAT good? With the farm situation what it is, higher prices are of course good. As long as prices of what the farmer HAS TO SELL are lower than prices of -what the farmer HAS TO BUY, the farm er will be out of luck. BUT The BIG trouble with agricul ture, is that consumption of agri cultural products hasn't been keeping pace with production. As a result, we have some six billion dollars worth of farm products stored up, FOR WHICH THE TAXPAYERS HAVE PAID but which haven't been con sumed. SPEAKING of taxes: The teletype confides that the Tax Foundation of New York reports that in the last fis cal year the American people paid out a record 91 billion dol lars in federal, state and local taxes. (Federal taxes accounted for about two-thirds of the to tal.) The tax bite, the Tax Founda tion says, averaged $572 for every man, woman and child in the country. That means that if you are the breadwinner for a family of four, you were stood up for a tax total of $2288 last year. , THAT would pay for a lot of beans and bacon, wouldn't it? As a matter of fact, it would go quite a long way toward the purchase of a new automobile, which all of us crave far more than beans and bacon. THE next time some ambitious i- politiican tells you about all the things he's gomg to. get you free - for - nothing - from - the - government, give a thought to that $2288 you pungled up to the tax collector last year. ' BUT" ' You say "My taxes didn't amount to anything like $2288. I'm a little guy. The BIG SHOTS pay the taxes. As long as the--Democrats stay in power, I'll be sitting pretty." T'M SORRY to have to disillu- sion you, sir, but you're kid ding yourself. Taxes are added to the cost of production, and therefore have to be added to prices. The unpalatable truth is that you paid your $2288, wheth er you knew it or not. Architecture Discussed ... At Vocational Meeting Jack Edson. of Keener .and Edson, architects, discussed the profession of architect recentlv for 26 Medford High school sen iors interested in this vocation. Edson described framing1 re quired to practice as an archi tect, as well as type of qualifi cation necessary and financial aspects of the field. The program of . career talks at the senior high school will resume Jan. 10. with a srjeaker and film on the vocation of air stewardess. Ken Cook, Medford manager for - United Air; lines, will be in' charge of the program. ' A film and speaker on the field open to ...medical " techni- cans will be presented Jan. 17 and forestry careers will be the topic Feb. 7.

Senator Morse Reports To the Editor: Here Is my final word to the people of Ore gon for 1954: This is a season of rejoicing and hope. It is a fitting time to refresh our spirit for the tasks of the year ahead and to rededi cate ourselves to the principles of brotherhood. May each of you have a joyous Christmas with family and friends. In, preparation for the next session of Congress, I have been reviewing the private bills which I introduced last year. Most of them. concern individual immi gration problems of relatives apd friends of Oregonians.who are seeking to come into the United States f6r a better way of life. Several are refugees from Communism. Quite a few of the bills concerned young sters 'adopted by Oregonians serving in the Armed Services and other missions overseas. Happily, quite a few of the bills were enacted into law during the past two years and many of the other applicants were ad mitted into the United States, or will be, partly as a result of my office's efforts in their behalf. Not many of the bills will have to be reintroduced next year. The plight of millions over seas, who yearn to come to this country to enjoy its freedom and opportunities, holds a lesson for each of us at Christmas time. We are the luckiest people in the world. It is not too soon for students expecting to be graduated from high school next June to be planning ' ahead. Young men who will be 17 (and under 22) by July 1, 1955, may be inter ested in applying for admission to the Coast Guard Academy at New London, Connecticut. . Competitive examinations for the Academy will be held Febru ary 28 and March 1, 1955. . Ap plications must be submitted by January 15. There are no Con gressional appointments to this Academy, but I will be pleased to furnish further information to anyone interested, or you may write directly to the U. S. Coast Guard, Washington 25, D. C. In this last newsletter to reach you in 1954, the Morse family and office staff, which works for you the year around, wish you a healthy and happy New Year, You will be hearing from me in 1955. Wayne Morse, Senator from. Oregon, . 417- Senate Bldg., . v Washington, D. C. ' A Reply to T. R. Thompson To the Editor Referring to T. R. Thompson who "doesn't believe in Christmas." I wonder if he ever received a birthday gift or had a party celebrating his birthday? If he doesn't be lieve in celebrating Christ's birth, then he had better advise, his family to forget his birthday. He stated we celebrate Christ's death " instead fof His birth. Where has anyone's death been celebrated? certainly not our Lord's. But on Easter Sunday we . do celebrate His -"resurrec tion" which gives the Christmas a hope of a renewed and eternal life. ... '.. ; - True enough Christ has been taken out of Christmas to the extent that many people have forgotten the meaning of Christ mas, only . as a means of ex changing gifts and having a riotous time. Christ was the gift to the world, and if ever we should honor that gift it is at Christmas time, by worshiping mm, tnrough helping the needy, etc., and not by gluttony and drunkeness, which is disgusting in the sight of God, and above au children should be taught the true meaning of Christmas, mat unnst was God's gift to the world that .we might be saved. Christ Himself promised to come again (John 14) and that is what the Christians are look ing forward to, that they may go and dwell in that place He is preparing for them. Why shouldn't we celebrate His birth? - . Mrs. Ernest Santo, .. 204 Lozier Lane. An Appeal for a Neighbor To the Editor Anna Dale is now at home after suffering a relapse of her former illness.

I found many others also ob ject to these trashy movies of which there have been all too many recently. . I . agree with Mr. Fuller of Ashland that some new material for the front page : besides the Big : Feud would be ;ref reshing. A column or two on how. to get rid. . of such lurid enter tainment would really be unique. I suppose the movie industry thinks they have to show that sort of movie to lure people away from their television sets. Well, we will leave our TV set for a good decent movie, but not for that junk and most people will do the same. Mrs. Margaret Rose, . 916 Alta St. . Is That So? By Eugene Burns ' Ranger-Naturalist . The Star of Bethlehem, which guided the three wise men of the east to Bethlehem so the legend goes has been made the symbol of Christmas and so we place a five-pointed star on the spire of our Christmas tree. Quite likely the Star of Beth- lehem was a brilliant light which resulted from the colli sion of dead worlds, perhaps hundreds of thousands of light years earlier. Mindful of our Christmas sym bol, however, let's step out to gether into the dark this Christ mas evening and look up into those stars in the heavens. And then, perhaps, repeat the rite which the naturalists, William Beebe and Col. Theodore Roose velt, performed at least 40 times. After an evening of exploratory talk, perhaps about the fringe of knowledge of some new pos sibility of getting inside the minds and senses of animals. they'd step outdoors and look up. Searching the sky until they foimrt the faiiif: Vipawnlv ennt of light-mist beyond the lower left-hand corner of the Great Square of Pegasus, one or the other recited: . "That is the Spiral Galaxy in Andromeda. "It is as large as our Milky Way. "It is one of a hundred mil lion galaxies. ' "it is 7ou,uuo light years away. "It consists of one hundred billion suns, each larger than our sun." And then, after a silence, Roosevelt would .say: "Now think we are small enough! Let's go to bed." - .. Look at Design Then, next morning when the sun shines into the room, look at our Christmas tree and . the symbol star at the top. Looking from the tip-top, look at the branches below. See how per fectly and mechanically they are designed and engineered to streamline with strong winds or withstand the stress when boughs are snow-laden. Then, look, too, at the thous ands of needles on each branch leaves, really. Each is perfect ly formed, composed of millions of cells, within each of which are again a million molecules, And each molecule is a . constel lation of atoms, . and in every atom revolve electrons like plan ets around the sun. And what of man? He stands humbly, I hope between elec tron and star. , - (Released by McClure Newspaper Syndicate Free: By special arrangement with the editors - of the Encyclo pedia Americana, my panel of judges will award each week to the reader who sends me : the best question on nature and wildlife a complete 30-volume set of this world-famous refer ence work in a handsome Seal craft binding.'

TYPEWRITERS & ADDING MACHINES Repaired MEDFORD OFFICE EQUIPMENT COMPANY 41 S. Grape Phone 2-4100 Babson and By ROGER W, BABSON Babson Park, - Mass. (Special to Main Tribune) Three spe cialists, just back from Europe,' discussed the effect, of our dollar-aid pro gram abroad. Since this was a small, closed meeting, I shall not iden tify these men. What 'they said was Baser W. Babtom . that the mil lions of dollars spent in Europe have not, as had been "' hoped, won very many of our European neighbors to our way of think ing. The thinking behind our mul ti-billion-dollar aid program was that we could raise the living standards of Europeans by in creasing their productivity. This means by showing them how to develop mass markets for their manufactures. We hoped to win converts with1 refrigerators, shoes, radios, and many other Hems. : What we seem to have over looked is the fundamental Eur opean desire for security. The American economy is dynamic. Competitiveness is inbred; risk taking and venture capital are common denominators of our success. The European economy, on the other hand, is a static, protected economy. Production is stabilized; prices are con trolled; the worker is protected; competition is discouraged; the common denominator is secur ity. People are interested in working harder for security, but not in selling more units at less profit per unit. Reaction of Cynic To Bid for Europe One cynic in the group said, "All right, then why do we try to force the American ways on turope.' inese Europeans are happy; why should we unload a dose of American ulcers' on them?" A . comment from an other went something like this, "Austria's productive capacity has been sharply increased since World War II. We were not con cerned about them before the war; wny snouict we be. con cerned now?" A reputable econ omist in the group raised an other issue: "Europe knew it had a threat from the East, an enemy in Communist Russia. Might not Europeans now believe that they have two enemies seeking to in filtrate or absorb them Rus sia and America?" My own belief is that we must fight poor economics with good economics. We cannot, hope to sell democracy to . people who are economically enslaved -by their institutions. If we do hot act constructively, we shall lose Europe to Communism by de fault. : . - Dollar Good Measure Of Spiritual Values I have a, pet notion which I know will shock some of you, but think about it a while. Our dollar bill is a good measure of our spiritual values! A paper dollar isn't worth anything of itself; but, as.a medium of ex change, it is a measure of values. It reflects such spiritual values as honesty, , wisdom, courage, and integrity. From 1939 to 1953 the value of our dollar declined from 100 cents to about 55 cents. Does this decline in dollar value mirror our decline in character? Dollar depreciation is largely a result of war..Buf why? In stead of paying as we went, we McLains Drug Centre t Monthly F ONCE AGAIN the Christmas season is here.

The practical cure for Com munism is not material, it 13 spiritual. It is not the amount of dollars you pour into a situa tion; it is the ideals. It is not security and pensions and com fort; it is ideals and ethics and character. It is those principles that make our dollar worth something. Right now our' dollar is below par; I have faith, how ever, that as more Americans come to realize this great truth, we will put our own house in order. Then maybe what we have to say will make more sense to Europeans. We must practice and teach sacrifice.
