FOUR MEDFORD (OREGON) MAIL TRIBUNE
Speaker Explains UNESCO
At Meeting of UN Chapter
"Few things in the world today provide hope for peace-and
the United Nations may be one," said De Wayne Johnson in
speaking for the Medford chapter, Oregon United Nations asso
ciation, Thursday night. Mr. Johnson, on the faculty of Southern
Oregon college, is doing research on United Nations Educational,
Scientific and Cultural Organization, known as UNESCO, as the
basis of a doctoral thesis
The speaker quoted from the
preamble to the UNESCO con
stitution which says that "since
wars begin in the minds of men,
it is in the minds of men that the
defences of peace must be con
structed." Mr. Johnson outlined briefly
the history of UNESCO, and said
that a "decalog" of purposes was
drawn up in 1951 at the fifth
session- of the general confer
ence in Florence, Italy. The 10
purposes of UNESCO are: to
eliminate illiteracy and encour
age fundamental education; to
obtain for each person an educa
tion conforming to his aptitude
and to the needs of society in
cluding technological training
and higher education; to promote
through' education increased re
spect toi human rights through
out all nations; to overcome the
obstacles to the free flow of per
xnns. ideas and knowledge be
tween the countries of the world; (
to promote the progress ana
utilization of science for man
kind; to study the causes of ten
sions that may lead to war and
to fight them through education;
to demonstrate world cultural
interdependence; to advance
through the press, radio and mo
tion pictures the cause of truth,
, freedom and peace; to bring
about better understanding
among peoples of the world and
to convince them of the necessity
of cooperating loyalty with one
another in the framework of the
United Nations; to render clear
inghouse and exchange services
in all its fields of action, together
with services of reconstruction
and relief assistance.
- Mr. Johnson said that there is
an adverse current of opinion
forming against the United Na
tions, and particularly UNESCO
and said the source of this seems
c to spring from the same sources
as the criticism directed against
schools and universities in recent
years. He declared that in some
instances, groups have been
formed with the specific purpose
of sabotaging UNESCO.
Some of the criticism comes
from' ".honest citizens" and some
from groups and individuals who.
are definitely subversive, he
added.
The speaker pointed out that
those who favor UN- and its
agencies realize that war pro
vides no solution to the world's
. ills and that they are endeavor
ing to work out laws and solu
tions which recognize human

nature as it is, and not as we

UNESCO is not striving for
world government, he declared,
and added' that if the UN could
find a method whereby disagree
ments could be comprised, a
great step forward would have
been made.
' The chief complaint against
UNESCO from abroad seems to
be that it is impractical, he said,
and added that some of the prac
tical programs ' of the agency
were the student exchange pro
gram, the exchange of art ex
hibits and works, and providing
specialists and technical assist
ance to underprivileged nations.
He added that "UNESCO has
done a poor job of explaining
itself."
Answering those who charge
that loyalty to the UN will un
dermine loyalty to this nation,
the speaker said it was a case
of "pyramided loyalties" and ex
plained that no thinking person
believed sthat loyalty to home
undermined loyalty to church
or God, or that loyalty to one's
city meant less loyalty to the
state, or loyalty to the state less
loyalty to the nation.
He concluded by saying that
permanent peace would have to
be built on an intellectual and
moral basis.
The president, Bruce Manley,
conducted the meeting and re
minded those present of the com
ing visit of Dr. Surindar Suri of
India who will fill several speak
in? engagements in southern
Oregon, March 1 and 2.

Lady Lions
Hear History
At Dinner
A , resume of the Medford
Lady Lions club organization
was given Tuesday evening by
a former officer of , the group
during an annual dinner given
by, the auxiliary to honor Med
ford firemen. The event is held
in appreciation of the work done
by the firemen in connection with
the annual toy project at Christ
mas time when firemen repair
toys for needy children of the
vicinity. Members of the Lady
Lions distribute the gifts.
Mrs. Addie Wilson,. a charter
member of the Medford Lady
Lions, told the group that in the
spring of 1926 soon after the
men's club was organized a few
of the wives organized their own
group to meet while their hus;
bands were at Lions club
meetings.
Mrs. Lucinda Hubbard, was
the first president, with Mrs.
Charles Reames, Mrs. Robert
Skinner, Mrs. Mamie Sleeter,
Mrs. Ernest Scott, Mrs. H. W.
Conger, and 'Mrs. Wilson as
members. .
In 1936 the group received a
charter and it was at this time
that the state organized a Lady
Lions club auxiliary. Mrs. Wil
son was state auditor, and the
members then became charter
members. Mrs. Wilson has been
made an honorary member and
is still active in the club. This,
however, is the first time she
had attended. a dinner for the
firemen.
Gordon Barker, fire chief,
spoke briefly and told of his
first meeting with the club in
1941.
A report on the 1954 toy proj
ect was read by Mrs. Robert
Urie. Mrs. Nick Gier served as
lion tamer. Colored moving pic
tures taken during Christmas
projects were shown by Charles
Hobbs, one of the firemen. The
pictures were made in sequence
form showing first a car load of
broken and discarded toys being
unloaded by a fireman, later
showing the repair and packag
ing, and then scenes at the dis
tribution center when Lady
Lions and their husbands assem
bled the toys for distribution to
the needy children.
Games were played and guests
for the evening were Mrs. Ad
dison Robinson, Mrs. .' George
Gilham, Mrs. H. Christopherson,
Mrs. Anton Lausman, and Mrs.
Earl McQuigg.
The March meeting for thte
Lady Lions club will be held at

Catholic Sister Honored
For Long Nursing Service
Sister Mary Norbert,' who began her nursing career 50 years
ago, was honored at a meeting of
association, Tuesday night. The
medical library at Sacred Heart
bert has been on'; the nursing staff since 1919.
The sister was presented a gift
from the association by Mrs. Sue
montieth, president, and after
saying a' few words of apprecia
tion said "now I must return to
work" which is typical of Sister
Mary Norbert. She is now night
supervisor of Sacred Heart. .
Sister. Mary Norbert, who en
tered Providence hospital in Se
attle, Wash., in 1905 to take up
her study of nursing, has seen
many -changes during her years
at Sacred Heart hospital here.
She -came here first in 1915,
stayed but a year and then re
turned, in 1919. At that time Sa
cred Hdarts average patient load
was about 20 persons a day
now it is a 75-bed hospital and it
is almost always in full use.
Only two floors were in use
in those early days, but during
the terrible influenza epidemic
of 1919, the third floor was or
ened for use. .
In. an interview Saturday
morning Sister Mary Norbert re
called such highlights of her ca
reer as the time Bear Creek over
flowed its banks, driving many
families from their homes. By
morning some 40 refugees "had
arrived at the hospital, hunting
a place to sleep and warm food.
She remembered the Feurth of
July in 1927 when she and Dr.
W. W. P. Holt, Medford physi
cian, delivered triplets born to
Mr. and Mrs. L. L. Damon. One
of the infants did not survive,
but two lived, she recalled.
Many of Sister Mary Norbert's
friends are men and woman who
were born at the hospital. Among
these are the children of Dr. and
Mrs." R. W. Clancy and the late
Dr. R. J, Conroy and Mrs. Con
roy who "were all born at Sacred
Heart hospital, she recalled.
Sister Mary Norbert, born in
Rutland, Vt., is a member of the
Sisters of Charity of Providence.
Following the presentation to
the Catholic Sister at Tuesday's
meeting, . Dr. A. Erin . Merkel,
Jackson county health officer,
talked on "Infectious Hepatitis."
He stated that the disease is
comparatively new in the annals
of medicine and that statistics
show an amazing increase in it
during the past few years. It has
been discovered that gamma glo
bulin is an. effective control
measure, he said.
The business meeting of the as
sociation included committee re
ports on scholarships, civil de
fense and other projects.' A baked
food sale is being" planned for the
near future. It was announced
that February 14, 15, and 16
have been declared Tag Day by
the Oregon " State' Nurses' asso
ciation. On these dates all mem
bers will wear tags identifying
themselves, y " -
A social- hour was held for
members and guests, with "re
freshments served by nurses on
the staff of Sacred Heart hospi
tal. Jaycettes .
: Medford and Ashland Jayc
ettes will meet at the Tally Ho
restaurant Wednesday, February
16, at 8 p.m. Dessert and coffee
will be served.
