Rev. Korby Sees Need
To Give 'Vertical'
Relationship To God
The need to give priority to
the "vertical" relationship to
God so that the "horizontal" re
lationship to institutions and to
people can be set in order was
itressed by the Rev. Kenneth
Korby yesterday noon in a talk
to Medford Kiwanians at Rogue
Valley Country club.
Mr. Korby, pastor of St.
Peter's Lutheran church here,
spoke on repentance, indicating
the differance between such ac
tion and the common making of
New Year's resolutions. "Repent
ance is not like turning over a
new leaf; it is being made new,"
he said.
Outlines Time Mailers
The minister outlined the mat
ters of time, "dust or destiny"
and relationships in connection
with his theme. He described
time as "a creature which is to
be used and for which each of us
is going to give an account."
Mr. Korby likened human be
ings to hired men, stating, "We
have a divine master, who is
without time, to whom we give
account."
Concerning destiny, the pastor
pointed out that no man is de
void of aims or goals and that
each has goals, 1o a greater or
lesser degree, both immediate
and remote. He mentioned that
even the vagu, goals shape de
cisions.
Mr. Korby further brought
out that a person, questioning
his own goals, will find his aims
"bent back in" at himself for
his own ultimate security.
Image of God Needed
The speaker stressed the need
to be made again in the image
of God. Christ established the
right aims and goals for men
and "chose to be among us to
steer us from this inbentness,"
according to the minister. "He
nas come to us to remake us,"
Mr. Korby said.
Horizontal relationship of men
to people and. institutions is
something he cannot avoid, the
pastor told Kiwanians. He spoke
of . men using the relationships
for their own advantage com
pletely or trying to find mean
ing in the relationships them
selves. "Attempts to solve the
full meaning of relationships in
terms of themselves always fail,"
he said, however. "There can
be no community," Mr. Korby
emphasized, "unless it exists
first in God." Every man, first
has to "dare 'to be alone" and
be responsible to God, he assert
ed. The pastor stated that the
horizontal relationship is tem
porary while the vertical rela
tionship to God is forever. If
there is not that relationship
with Him now, one will not have
it with Him forever, he said.
Jerry Russell, member of the
special education class at Wash
ington grade school, attended the
meeting to bring the thanks of
his class to Kiwanians for the
gifts provided for their Christ
mas party.

Floods Cost SP
About $5,000,
San Francisco (U.R) Record
storms and floods in Oregon,
Northern California and Nevada
over the Christmas holiday per
iod cost the Southern Pacific
about $5,000,000, the company
reported today.
D. J. Russell, SP president,
said the loss represents flood
damage, operating expenses of
battling the storm and loss of
revenue.
Russell explained the revenue
loss is due not only to suspend
ed service and consequent in
ability to move traffic, but also
damage to properties of shippers
which has put them temporarily
out of business.
A large share of the loss, he
said, occurred on the Northwest
ern Pacific Railroad, an SP sub
sidiary serving the area between
Tiburon and Eureka.
NWP expects it will be an
other three weeks or so before
the line is opened to Eureka and
Areata. It is still out of service
from Willits north.
The SP called out several
thousand men, including the
forces of the Morrison-Knudsen
Company, to reopen all four
main line routes radiating from
San Francisco. Most of these
men are still at work, bringing
the railroad back to the condi
tion it was in before the storm.
Russell said the heavy rain
and snow accompanying the
floods was not entirely without
harm. He said this extra water
supply may produce bigger
crops and business later in the
year.

CRUCIAL VOTE Ex-Premier Pierre Mendes-France casts his
ballot in Paris in French election that may change the Republic's
history or may prove a frustrating fizzle. .The big question is
whether either of the two top rivals Mendes-France or Premier
Edgar Faure can win a majority or come near enough to a
majority to establish the first French government in a genera
tion with a real mandate from the people. Mendes-France is con
ceded to have a chance to do so, Faure very little chance. But
most experts fear the vote will result in another weak and divided
Parliament from which a stable government could not be chosen.
State of the Union
Message Background
By UNITED PRESS
Background on State of the
Union Message - The State of
the Union message usually con
stitutes a summary of the ad
ministration's program and ob
jectives, and an outline of the
legislation desired to achieve
those ends.
Section 3, Article II of the
Constitution requires:
"He (the president) shall from
time to time give to the Congress
information of the State of the
Union and recommend to their
consideration such measures as
he shall judge necessary and ex
pedient ..."
Time Not Stipulated
The Constitution does not
stipulate any time for delivery
of the message, but the long
standing custom is that 'it shall
be sent to Congress in the early
days of each session.
Woodrow Wilson was the first
president to deliver such a mes
sage to Congress in person.
Usually the Chief Executive
delivers his message in a person
al speech to Congress. But mere
transmission of a document, to
be read by clerks, as Mr. Eisen
hower did today, is the histori
cal way. - - -

In his second, in 1954, Mr.
Eisenhower called for Congress
to deprive convicted Communists
of citizenship.
Much of the more than two
dozen legislative programs the
President asked in his last re
port remains before this session.
The big ones still remaining
are school construction and
highways. And added to that this
year is a new farm program.

week, to some 11,000 borrowers
under the state veteran's home

Saalfeld, director of the depart

nounced. Before the plan becomes ef
fective, 75 per cent of the state's
borrowers will have to accept
the insurance plan, Saalfeld said.
The insurance, authorized by
the 1955 legislature, will pay
off mortgage on homes covered
by the borrower in case of death.
The insurance pays only the un
paid balance of the loan.
Extensive Program
For 1956 Outlined
By County Chamber
An extensive road improve -
ment program, aid for industrial
expansion, and renewed activity
to encourage tourists and con

of highway development, partic
ularly with respect to a new
route from Medford to Klamath
Falls; improvements on danger
ous sections of the Crater Lake
highway; armor plating a large
portion of the Diamond Lake
highway to permit commercial
traffic, and widening Highway

Amnesia Vicfihi
Recognizes Wife .
Placerville, Calif (U.R) A
husband of one week slowly be
gan recovering today from an at
tack of amnesia that has blotted
out memory of his romance and
marriage.
Ronald Evenson, 27, a student
at Colorado School of Mines,
last night recognized his wife,
Delora Lee, 24, to whom earlier
in the day he had mumbled, "I
don't know you."
Evenson and his wife were
married in La Junta, Colo., Dec.
28 and went to San Francisco
for, their honeymoon. Early Mon
day morning, he complained of
feeling ill. He disappeared from
their honeymoon suite.
Tuesday night, a truck driver
almost ran over Evenson on a
snow-covered mountain high
way. Highway patrolmen took
him to Placerville sanitarium,
half -conscious and incoherent.
His wife came here yesterday
from San Francisco. Evenson
stared at her without knowing
who she was. She became almost
hysterical with grief. Later, she
vowed to stay by his bedside
until he recovered.
Dr. L. E. Shortes, physician in
whose care Evenson was placed,
had some cheering news:
"He is recovering. He has be--gun
to remember quite 'a bit of
his background and he has rec-'
ognized his wife. I want to em
phasize he is still recovering.
It's a slow process.
"However, at the rate he's go
ing, he can leave, here in two
days. Some emotional shock,
what it was I don't know,
brought on this amnesia."
Evenson and his wife met last
June while they were attending
summer classes at University of
Colorado. She teaches school at
Sterling, Colo.
