    Kiwanis Official Urges
Work At Community Level
MAIL TRIBUNE, Mtdfard, Oregon, MonJty, OetoI.tr 27. 1958 3
rte need to go to work
at the community level to be
effective and tomorrow will
be a beautiful day.'
Those were the concluding
words by Stary Gange, Vi-
sana, Calif., olive grower and
producer, who addressed Med-
ford Kiwanis club members
and their guests Saturday
night. Gange, expressing great
interest in what will happen
in the world in years to come,
was principal speaker for the
service club's 35th anniver
sary party. The dinner and
dance were at Rogue Valley
Country club
The former governor of the
California-Hawaii-Nevada dis
trict of Kiwanis International
mentioned the developments
over the past 35 years which
have made life more worth'
while. Concerning advances
of the future, he used the ex
pression, "You ain't seen noth
ing yet." Gange then told of
some of the possibilities, prob
lems and challenges faced in
population increase, growth
of the west, education and in
ternational affairs in "build
ing this new tomorrow."
"You and I have the great
est challenge ever given a free
people," Gange declared con
cerning the challenge from
Russia.
Speaking of tendency of
government to "break down'
when it gets higher than the
local plane, Gange said, "We
need to do all in our power
at the community level." He
advised working on some
tning closer to home " so we
can be more effective." If the
community is working, state,
national and world govern
ments have a way of taking
care of themselves, he main
tained.
Even a little' contribution
makes a change, Gange
stressed, and "the world will
never be the same because
we lived." The olive grower,
who travels about the United
States filling speaking engage
ments, said that he had real
ized he "was not going to get
out of this world alive." He
came to the decision that the
thing to do is to "live." He
quoted the prayerful remark,
"Oh Lord, keep me alive as
long as I shall live."
Gange pointed to more than
one million men in service
clubs in the United States
working only for good. "What
a tremendous power," he stat
ed. He brought out the need
to do the jobs given one in a
community and to get more
jobs. When one has the right
motivation he can get things
" done, the California man said.
On the contention with
Communist world, Gange as
serted that "we have a bear
behind us." ' After the first
Russian Sputnik, he said, the
United States for a while was
a "second class" nation.
"We've a challenge the likes
of which we've never had be
fore," he told his audience.
He went on to say that this
nation is also a challenge for
the Russians.
Has Challenge
Gange mentioned the possi
bility that the more Russian
people are educated the more
they may find that they dis
like about their own govern
ment and the more they may
learn, of the outside world.
Russia, he stated may be sow
ing the seeds of its own de
struction, but this country
still has a challenge to meet.
Elaborating on internation
al problems, Gange said that
"people who are hungry know
we live high on the hog and
want some more of it." He
charged that the two most
powerful nations in the world
today know the least about
diplomacy. "We are Mr. Fixit
and we do it by just picking
up the check," he remarked.
He contended also that "we
put our big flat foot in the
wrong place" and that na-
behind the people in their
understanding of problems
More people are becoming
interested and are cooperating
with education, Gange report
ed. No one has ridiculed edu
cation and survived, he assert
ed, adding that Sputnik has
awakened people to this fact.
He brought out that business
men all of a sudden are real
izing that "not just the school
people have the kids. Busi
nessmen have a challenge to
work with the school people
for the pattern of education
could be set for 1,000 years,
he maintained.
More must be done along
basic, fundamental education
al principals in the opinion of
Gange. He expressed the
thought that, while this coun
try needs engineers, technic
ians and physicists, it doesn t
need a crash program but just
more slant on these scientific
courses.
Gange ventured that the
new world of tomorrow is go
ing to be in the Pacific area
for this is where two-thirds
of the world's population
lives. Along with this, Amer
ica's own west is growing and
creating "wonderful prob
lems," he said. The right peo
ple, he stated, can work out
these problems and change
the west "to their heart's de
sire." The olive grower told of
the values of optimism and
enthusiasm and a sense of
urgency with a sense of bal
ance in facing problems. He
expressed the opinion that
people's attitude on the local
level will be every bit as im
portant as their aptitude.
Gange warned that today's
problems cannot be solved
through today's eyes. It's well
to look to the future but peo
ple should not worry about
it, he cautioned. Don't be anx
ious for tomorrow, but let to
day's troubles be sufficient,
he said.
Lists Five Rights
Gange listed five rights and
powers of the American way
of life. These are the right
to know, the right to work,
the right to save, the right to
vote and the right to pray.
Right to know, he said, is a
very basic thing and ex-1
pressed his belief in the right
to work without having to
pay a premium to anyone.
Power to save has been weak
ened by taxes, inflation and
credit, Gange pointed out. He
warned that power to tax is
the power to destroy and said
too much tax money has been
sent to state and national gov
ernments.

Minneapolis (LTD Vice
President Richard M. Nixon
said today the word "radical"
was the "only logical term
to use" in referring to some
Democratic candidates.
Nixon defined a "radical"
as one who "advocates high
government spending."
He told a news conference
that election of some "radi
cal" Democrats to Congress
would lead to more "national
ization and socialization if
you mean more government
and less private enterprise."
Thevice president flew to
Minneapolis Saturday night
to spend a restful Sunday and
to address a Republican
breakfast he boosted farm
belt Republican senatorial
and congressional candidates.
His next stop on his cam
paign tour, was to be Battle
Creek, Mich., today.
Says Voters Shifting
Nixon also said he and
President Eisenhower agreed
that "implementation" of for
eign policy is a proper cam
paign issue.
"I believe that foreign pol
icy and domestic policy have
got to be discussed," Nixon
said.
Nixon flatly refused to pre
dict that the Republicans
would win the elections, de
spite his statement Sunday
tional leaders sometimes lag that a "striking shift of voter

Democrats Nixon
opinion had halted a predicted
"Democratic landslide."
However, he said the Dem
ocrats "have a tendency to I
run out of gas."
Nixon denied "categorical
ly" that he had asked Calif
ornia Gov. Goodwin J. Knight
not to run for reelection in
favor of Sen. William F.
Knowland. , ,
Defends Foreign Policy
In his breakfast speech, he
challenged Democrats to com
pare foreign policy under the
Truman administration with
that of Secretary of State i
John Foster Dulles.
"If they want to compare
their record with ours, then,
boy, go to it," he said. "We'll
give them the shellacking of
their lives.
Nixon warned Sunday that
anyone trying to predict the
November election "will find
himself as confused as a be
ginner with a hula hoop."
The American shoreline of
the Great Lakes is about
equal to the combined coasts
bordering on the Atlantic
and Pacific oceans and the
Gulf of Mexico.
A deficiency of vitamin B-2
or riboflavin is the most prev
alent dietary deficiency in
this country.
