C.-IUPD-Two former state park superin tendents went on trial with five other men Monday on charges of conspiring to set up a moonshine still inside the Reed Creek state park. Opportunity at Hyatt We have written much about outdoor recrea tion in recent months and years. This is because it is a really "live" topic of substantial personal interest to a large and growing number of people. Any one who has observed the growth in out door recreation is bound to agree that there is a "recreation explosion," that it is continuing and increasing, and that public agencies are under strong pressure to meet the demand. 1XE ARE most fortunate in Jackson county to have one of the great natural mountain, river and lake recreation areas of the nation. It serves as a strong attraction to tourists, who fur nish our economy with of the dollars which circulate here. So it is up to all of us, recreationalists or not, to support in any way we can improvements and i i i.l j i l extensions 01 our tremendous recreational po tential. . Now, with this out of the way, we have a sug gestion which, with very little time, money and effort, could make a mediocre recreational area an excellent one, thus adding to the enjoyment of local people and visitors alike. 1X7E REFER specifically to Hyatt lake. ' The lake is part of the Talent Irrigation Dis trict system of water collection and distribution, and is now tied in with the big new Howard Prairie development, which itself is going to be come a major recreation area. Hyatt is a relatively shallow, particularly around the rim where the water level has been raised by the dam. It is an excellent habitat for warm water (spiny ray) fish, and as such, with its pleasant, wooded sur roundings, its gradually sloped shores, and its relative accessibility, it is an excellent family rec reation site. There are summer homes there, a number of public areas, and a resort concession. Its main drawback, both as to beauty ana as to recreational utility, is the "dead forest" of trees killed when the water level was raised, and which provides an unsightly thicket of snags around the waters edge. DY A combination of circumstances, the time has come when this drawback could be re moved, at a minimum of effort and cost. The lake is being drawn down now, to pro vide for poisoning and fishes selected for the area. The probabilities are, since the entire Talent be in operation next year, it never again will be down low enough to get at the snags below the usual water line. The countv is now clearintr the right of way for a road in the area, and logging equipment is on the ground, available. ; "THESE factors, combined, make it an ideal A time to do something to bring Hyatt lake up to its high potential. Could not the bureau of reclamation, the bu reau of land management, the forest service, Jackson county, and whatever private owners are in the area cooperate The county court could -i ,1 ii . i i i unaertaKe tne leaaersmp The costs, right now, would be minimal. And probably never again will there be such an op portunity to improve both the sightliness and the utlity value of what could well be one of our major recreational attractions. E.A. Almost After the night-time temperature dropped over the week end, and the electric blanket was switched on for the first time in many months, the Family Secretary of Health, Education and Welfare inquired: "Isn't it about time for the annual fall edi torial?" Perhaps it is. Perhaps the fact that the sun doesn't appear, shining yellow through the curtains to the east, for a good hour after the time it did not long ago, is a hint that autumn is not far away. Perhaps its earlier descent through the skies, and the colorful sunsets it provides in combina tion with the Btriny clouds, are a sign. A FEW leaves on the trees just a few are beginning to turn yellowish brown. The coat of the puppy (he's still the puppy, even though fully grown ; just as the 14-year-old is still "Baby" occasionally) is growing shaggy as his hot-weather crew cut grows out. The crab grass, defying all the patented chemicals and all the curses, has taken over major portions of the lawn. Fall autumn to the purists isn't here yet. But it has sent out its harbingers and its forerun ners and its heralds. THE rains have yet to come, to soak the fc-Tests A in safe moistun the water-skier still reigns on river and lake, t..e tourists' cars still whizz through the city. But Labor Day is less than three weeks away, and the opening of school comes soon after. The last full moon was bright with promise of the next-but-one, the Harvest Moon. And while the mid-afternoons may still be swelteringly hot for a brief time yet, the early mornings and the hours of dusk provide the eerie, undefinable "feeling" which forecasts the changing seasons. Fall autumn if you will is almost here.

She Gives Thanks To the Editor: I was fully aware that advertising does pay-but hardly expected such fast results until my "Mos quito Complaint" appeared in last Wednesday's issue of your paper-to be awakened early Thursday morning by the "spray plane" dipping "ob viously" low over my house three times. Ha. I got the message. About one or two more treatments of that kind, per haps we may all be able to use our nice little back yard patios, we work so hard to prepare, also the lovely parks. My most sincere thanks to you-and to the county de- partment-for this service. Mary A. Williams Orr dr. Central Point, Ore. Grasshoppers To the Editor: One saying of Agassiz seems worthy of the portal of every college s Life Sciences Hall. Asked If he enjoyed his vacation: "Cer tainly. Almost got halfway across my garden." As to garden miracles, is anything more intriguing than the camouflage of the grass hopper family? The ground types have evolved the color of the soil. Also they seem to fly low, not high among the greenery. Others, high flying types are colored green, sometimes with lines of yel low like foliage. The katydid even so resembles a green leaf that, when at rest, it is well hidden. As to camouflage, here again Mother Nature was "first at the Patent Office." Britain sent her soldiers into battle with the same redcoats that made maidens' hearts go "pit-a-pat." No wonder Kip ling's Tommy said: "The Boer, 'e knocked us silly at a mile." One fascinating grasshopper coloration is of those with red, or golden or silver under wings. One considering British redcoats might wonder. The pursuer strikes at the color in flight but misses his prey. The camouflaged wingcovers, at alighting, are as effective protection as with the under wing moths. We-2 once invested a sum mer's leisure studying our gar den's Orthoptera. 'Twas as ex citing as a dugout expedition in Java's jungles, or as a camel trip "down the Trail toward Timbuctu." C. M. Goethe, 3731 Tea st. Sacramento 16, Calif. Quotes From Rome To the Editor: The writer of these lines lias been made aware of some interesting fads that he feels your read ers would be interested in. Just when millions of Amer icans seem ready to accept the oft repeated claim that the Roman Catholic Church does not tell its members how to vote, the Vatican newspaper L' Osservatore Romano pub lished an editorial that drop ped like a bomb among Rome's apologists in the Unit ed States, Space does not per mit but we feel some of these statements made in this edi torial of May 17 should be given careful attention by Americans. Said the editor, and I quote, "There is a tendency to sep arate the Catholic (member) from the eccleiastlcal hier archy, narrowing the chasm between them to the sacred ministry alone, and proclaim ing the full independence of the believer in the civil field. Hence the absurd dichotomy of conscience as between citi zen and believer, as if the Catholic religion were only a special and occasional phase in the life of the soul, and not Menace I Ifn 1 1 ( 1 1 M Ltr x aniNunvviv the powerful idea that in volves and gives direction to man's whole existence. "The Catholic can never overlook the teaching and the instruction of the Church. In every field of his life he must base his private behavior on the guidance and instruction of the hierarchy. "In the grave hour that has struck it is time for an urgent appeal to the consistency and the sense of duty of all Cath olics so that all of them will take their stand, not on the side of flimsy opinions of make-shift teachers but on that of the thinking and guid ance of the ecclestical hier archy which alone, as we have pointed out, has the right to decide whether in a given so cial and political situation, there is any involvement or compromise of higher relig ious and more principles. "It is the duty of every Catholic to bow to these rul ings and those opinions even in the field of politics." We wonder as to the posi tion of J. H. Kennedy, who has declared that as president he would be responsible to God but not to the pope. Ob viously Rome has not changed. She has not become more tol erant. Her millions of com municants are instructed to hold themselves in bound al legiance to Rome. Though they may take the oath pledging their loyalty to the state yet back of this lies the vow of obedience to Rome, absolving them from every pledge inim ical to her interests. William G. Woolven 2929 Diane St. Ashland, Ore. Important Measure To the Editor: Enclosed is a letter from Steve Schell, president of the Associated Students of the University of Oregon, which has brought to my attention the importance of the passage of Ballot Meas ure 6, "State Bonds for High er Education Facilities". The housing facilities situa tion, in particular, is very serious. There is not enough dormitory space to house all the enrolled students ade quately, which results in put ting pressure on the sorori ties and fraternities; and there are not enough avail able apartments to house the married students. I have just cited one in stance, but all the other bene fits that this measure aids are equally important. Being a part of the Univer sity of Oregon student body, I feel that it is up to us to let people know the situation and encourage them to vote for this very important amend ment. Judith C. Lobdcll (Senior at the U. of O.) 1007 Murray ave. Medford. Mr. Schcll's letter follows: What I'm writing you about is Ballot Measure 6. "State Bonds for Higher Education Facilities." Ballot Measure 6 is a constitutional amendment which will appear on the bal lot in November. It would authorize an increase in the amount of money which the Oregon state system of higher education may borrow to build self-liquidating college buildings. Self-liquidating buildings are buildings which are paid for out of fees, rentals, gifts and concessions. No tax mon ey Is used to finance them. Dormitories, married student housing, student centers, ath letic and health facilities in the public colleges of Oregon have been built in this tax free way for almost 30 years. You know the shape of our Some New Of Africa, By K. C. THALER London - (UPD - The bitter crisis in the embattled Congo republic has set off growing visions among ambitious Af rican leaders of a United States of Africa. By the end of 1960, a total of 16 new states will have emerged in the former Dark Continent within a single year. Some of them lack suffi cient experience and the eco nomic and financial resources to assure a safe passage to wards unimpaired existence as independent nations. The developments in the dorms next year; if No. 6 does not pass, the situation will be even more critical. I hope you will take time to inform yourself and those you know who vote about this measure and the fact that it will involve NO tax money. Steve Schell President, Associated Students of the University of Oregon 304 Student Union Eugene, Ore. Wake Up! He Says To the Editor: Seems like its time for someone to get busy and take the people's side. So People of Medford, wake up! ! Did you know that already a few senior citizens are drift ing onto the "Gimme Trail" right at this time and looking for what could be a commu nity handout of a nice, new home obtained through the re-activating of a county hous ing authority, not too long after our original one was discontinued? An application or similar move has been made to our county court for this, hoping to obtain their approval, and you and you and you must register your obpection to this right now or it could be too late. Better to upset it before it starts. Wonder who of the sponsors are itching for a chance to get on the county or public payroll, as in due time there would be several. Why not have these people get their homes by their own personal efforts, just as you and the writer have, thereby keeping any of their crew out of our taxpayer funds we dig up each year, and it's grow ing larger each year as it is now, creating a real burden for many. You should act now by telling your county court to turn down any such plan and now is the time; so phone call in person or write with out fail at once, for we must hold the line on taxes and ex pense. Why not make our voices heard frequently and stop needless spending, for there are folks coming up with all kinds of extravagant schemes that we can easily get along without, for they invariably increase the public payrolls that create headaches in meet ing our taxes. Earl C. Gaddis 815 East Jackson st. Medford Doesn't Make Sense To the Editor: I have never written a letter to this column before, but this is one time I would like to point out some facts that should be taken into consideration by the people and school officials concerned in the boundary dispute. There will probably be few people in the new mnnor, but it was built as a part of Med ford, served by the police, water, sewer and street de partments, and I think should be part of the Medford school district. Be that as it may, we bought our property in Med ford and that is where we were expecting to send our children to school, if we had wanted our children to go to Phoenix schools we would have bought our home in Phoenix. When the shoe was on the other foot and the board wanted to bring the Phoenix children to Medford, they didn't like it, and I don't blame them, even if it was only their high school ages. It seems silly, when we can see the school from our front porch, to have to ride 30 to 45 minutes to reach a school in Phoenix. No one promised us any thing when we bought our home. We took it for granted that we were in Medford all the way, not living in one city and sending our children to school in another town. It just doesn'.t make sense to us. Carl Calison Biddle road Medford Likes Herblock To the Editor: 1 am one of a great number who think that Herlock's car toons are the best in poli tical satire of any that have appeared since the early times of Tom Nast, originator of the elephant to represent the G.O.P. and the donkey of the Democrats. It is my opinion that the persons who have from time to time sent in letters of pro- Leaders Envision United States Free From Both East and West Congo have conjured up the specter of a possible "Balkan ization" of the Dark Conti nent, . and some of Africa's new leaders fear this could invite fresh big-power inter vention and dangerous inter national rivalry. Russia Is Interested Suspicion of the big powers in Africa is complemented by the sudden advent- of the United Nations and Soviet Russia on the African scene The Kremlin has been keeping a suspiciously interested eye on Africa in recent weeks. Foremost among Africa's new leaders to envisage a United States of Africa is Ghana's dynamic president, Dr. Kwame Nkrumah, 51, whose ambition seemingly aims at leadership of a broad er African alignment. The American-trained poli tician considers an African alignment both possible and necessary. Looking beyond his own frontiers, he has said that Ghana's own independence will be incomplete unless it is linked up with the libera tion of other countries in Af rica. Troops Were Alerted He showed his determina tion when at the height of the test belong to the class that loves to dish it out, but can not take it. It depends upon which side of the political controversies a person hap pens to be lined up, whether the cartoons rub the right1 or wrong way. Chances are that these same protestors, who feel so badly about Herblock's digs at the present administration's activities, are the same who get such a big bang out of his similar digs at Roosevelt and Truman administrations. Herblock is doing a wonder ful job, and we hope you keep him right where he is, on the front page of your paper. Pat Graham 175 Jeanette st. Medford The Tables Turned To the Editor: This is my answer to Mrs. Paul Struck, of Prospect, Ore., if you care to use it. Many thanks to you Mrs. Paul Struck. I thought for a time I was out of luck. I cer tainly appreciate your good advice to me, in fact I've al ready found a beautiful tree, where I can forget about the woes of life, and not even think of the world's greed and strife. But, now that I've found how to get 'back out there', I find that I have still an other care, for how would I feel, if the fish held the reel, and it was me, in the water, out there? I take one good look, then bait up my hook, and cast a tempting lure. If the fish are hungry, they will take the lure, that's sure. I have loads of fun, while he makes his run, then I land him with a yank. BUT, if the procedure was just reversed, it would be me, lying there, on the bank. Malemute Slim White City, Ore. Anything Wrong? To the Editor: Due to the adverse reactions of many readers of this publication to my announced intention to vote for Kennedy, though not of his faith, I feel constrained to make the following obser vations. Catholic clergymen do not run for public office. They limit themselves to teaching and preaching religious pre cepts and doctrines and living religious lives. By example as well as by words th-;y stress morality, truth and faith in religious teachings. Politics is left to the more worldly citizens, even as you and I. Candidate Kennedy is a good, patriotic citizen, a United States senator, who was reared in the Catholic faith. Anything wrong with that picture? David Frisch P. O. Box 292 White City, Ore. Freedom of Religion To the Editor: Too often, people get the disease called the preacher s Itch, and tell the others what they "think" the Bible says. We also hear so much about this country being founded on freedom of religion and speech. If it were, then the white man should have kept his paws off it and let it so be. All legitimate versions of the Holy Scriptures assure us of all mankind of a dark skin, one language and one blood, until mankind decided to con nect this earth and heaven by a tower and staircase. Then did the Lord confound, V. T. (throw into confusion), the language of man and scat ter man abroad upon the face of all the world. Could it have been by the order of some other god that the white man came to abuse the simple rights of God's na- Congo crisis he alerted Ghana ian troops against embattled Katanga to prevent its break away from the Congo. A member of the British commonwealth, Nkrumah has lately also established good relations with the Russians. But what he appears to aim at is unimpaired leadership, free from western and Soviet power blocs. His chief rival at present is Sekou Toure, the boss of the Republic of Guinea which broke away from France a year ago. Toure, Moscow-trained and in close contact with the So viet, is also looking toward leadership over the newly emerging nations. The Soviets have made tives here, by slaughter and theft of property and heri tage? To secure this said free dom of religion, many things have been done in Europe a few centuries ago and in a more sadistic manner. When the natives finally fought for their own freedom they henceforth were branded "the barbarians" of early history. Very few people know that the Jesus of Nazareth also has a new and better Heaven than "any" church has for it self, each church has a pri vate one. That could be the freedom of religion we hear so much about. The Rev. A. Gllman Medford 322 South Riverside ave. The Old Fashioned Preacher To the Editor: At a cottage prayer meeting in Medford the writer quoted a fine old poem bearing the above title. It was so well appreciated that a request was voiced that we send it to the Mail Trib une, "so everyone can appre ciate it." We therefore sub mit it for publication: Old Parson Stubbs he used to preach at Tobin's School House and at Beach; A preacher of the olden brand with scripture verses right at hand, With half the Bible learned by rote right in his head where he could quote. I'm sure the bells of heaven rang both when he prayed and when he sang! Hp raised a loud reDrovinC din against old - fashioned kinds of sin. He spoke aloud - some say he raved - about the need, of getting saved. He held revivals now and then where women, children, grown-up men, With tear-streams coursing down the face, sought pardon, purity, and grace. He thundered f o r t h the Truth, the Word, in tones that were distinctly heard; He had one message meant for all, 'twas, "Seek redemp tion from the tall!" The parson died in '93; his last song was, "Abide with Me." His last words were, "It is His wayl Good bye, I'm going home today!" A man now preaches in his place who scoffs the very sound of "grace." He has A.M.s and Pn.us, and other marks of high de grees. He lectures on the planet Mars, the glory of the moon and stars, The beauties of the moun tain range, and other topics vague and strange. His lectures might be very good if they were ever under stood, But they don t put a man on pins and make him sorry for his sins. They never stir a wicked gent up to the point where he'll repent!

(Author, J. Edward Tufft) H. R. Bulman : t. 4, Box 316A -Medford All Was Created To the Editor: In reply to Mrs. B. J. Wyatt's letter, re "The Devil Exists " she i most certainly correct. Theo logians, in thousands of talks and writings, inform us that there are 30 nassa i?p in tVia Bible regarding the devil and hell. Knowledge can discrimin ate between true and untrue, good and bad. But "emotions", can only express subjective feelings of "likes" and "dis likes." The "image" in the judging mind becomes all important - the "image" and not the reality. Today (1960) the "image makers" are enjoying a field day, in their foolishness. Like modern translators of the revised edition of the Bible, "confuse their readers." The Hebrew "sheol," mean ing a subterranean cavity, or grave, when translated into Greek word "hades," has. like many words, several meanings. When Lucifer's Non-servlam" (I will not serve) and Lucifer was "cast into hell," being an angel. without a body, being a spirit. Reason and common sense in form us that hell is not a cavi ty or grave, but eternal pun ishment. "Hell," like "cancer," is an unpleasant thought. Plato and Aristotle over 300 years before the birth of Christ, proved by philosophy "the existence of God," and by "way of negation," "the existence of hell." Thomas Aquinas takes the two philosophy proofs of Aris totle, and -by theological proof, plus natural reason, he gives three additional proofs, for a total of five proofs for "the existence of God." Read Aquinas's "Summa Contra Gentiles." Today (1960) the second law of Thermodynamics tells us "every event, every phenome non wears down the original capital of energy (available power) of our universe." Therefore, It was created. Astronomy; recent studies reveal the sun and the stars are slowly decreasing and dy ing. Therefore, created. Radio carbon, used in find ing the dates of a subject of plant life, animal life, such as teeth and bones, ceases to take in the isotope from the atmosphere, at the death of a plant, animal or a human be ing ""herefore, they were created. I Man s mind, familiar only with that succession of events known as "time," cannot un derstand what is "eternity," outside the time sequence will really mean. Time is yours, eternity is mine.
