SIXTEEN MEDFORD (OREGON) MAIL TRIBUNE Tuesday, January 10, 1958 Wor'i Traveler Says People Have Power To Bring World Peace The American people have it within their power to bring about lasting world peace, ac cording to Harrison Wood, world traveler and author who spoke for Rogue River Valley Knife and Fork club last night at Rogue Valley Country club If the people of the United States would take a definite stand against Communist aggres sion and warn the Russians that this county will not tolerate any further aggressive acts, geace could be insured, Wood stated, He said this determination would be backed by this country's great superiority in atomic pow er, in food, arms and oil produc- The speaker said Zhukov, commissar for national defense of the USSR, "is the man to watch in Russia," and predicted that the present government in the Soviet union would end with in five years. It will be replac ed by a coalition of three great underground movements now in Russia, he believes, the coali tion to be sponsored by the Red army with. Zhukov at the top. Wants One Tiling Wood said Zhukov wants only one thing, and that is for the Russians to be allowed to lead their own lives and to seek the religion of their choice, and that he doesn t want any territory." "Pay no attention to Bulganin or Khrushchev," the speaker added. The speaker said the Russians "don't want to be edestroyed," and know that "we could de stroy everything in Russia above ground, including 75 per cent of the population, within two hours if we choose." He elabor ated on the effectiveness of the H-bomb and said if used, it would not only "destroy us," but have a lasting effect on coming speaker said he had re cently conferred at some length with Secretary of State John Foster Dulles and that Dulles, "who had been too patient in the past," was now "fed up with Russia." China, declared Wood, "is just a cripple that couldn't establish a first class war with any coun try." From world politics , the speaker turned to recent scien tific advances saying "we have a remarkable future ahead of us" because of research in the field of silicons - and solar en ergy. Saying that pure silicon would "change everything we use." Wopd stated that while atomic energy would be useful in the field of medicine and arm ed power, "the sun is greater than atomic energy" and the sun's forces would be harnessed to provide heat, light and en ergy for domestic and industrial uses without "the expense and danger of atomic power." Year of Decision The speaker closed by saying that 1956 "is the year of deci sion" and warned that unless the people of the United States take a definite stand this year against Communist aggression, it may be too late. Answering a question, Wood stated that while the UN will eventually succeed in bringing peace to the world, it is not now "doing its job" and he advocat- ' ed that this nation "walk out until every delegate is Willing to abide by the charter." He said the United Nations needs charter revision, an espionage system and a mobile military force to implement its decisions. Random remarks by the speaker during the question per iod included the statement that the U. S. government should be reorganized under the Hoover plan; that the federal govern ment should be allowed to do "only what the states can't do," that nationwide projects should be financed by a bank similar to the world bank and not through federal tax-raised mon ies; that private business can be "snuffed out" by exorbitant tax es; that "if we let Communism alone it will die, but before that we'll be broke," and that this country should "turn the huck sters of America loose and let them sell our way of life to the rest of the world, instead of spending all our energies selling things to one another." The speaker was introduced by Neil Davidson, vice-president of the club, who also introduced guests. Prisoner Moves for Marion County Trial Salem (U.R) Millard R. ' Wil liams, 19, recently convicted by a jury of escaping from the Ore gon state penitentiary, yester day moved for a new trial in Marion county Circuit Court.
