Message
By
THE REV.
- J. EMILE PFISTER, S.J.
... Professor of Philosophy,
Loyola University,
r New Orleans
(Written for UPI)
.. "Ask not what your country
can do for you - ask what you
can do for your country."
These words of President Ken
nedy's inaugural address ap
peal to us because they are
an expression of unselfish
love.
. Lent is the time for re-assessing
our love for God.
The word Lent comes from an
old Saxon word denoting
"spring." And as a German
poet reminds us, "Love knows
no winter; it is the sign of
ipring." i
r. If you ask what God has
done for us, St. John replies:
."God's love was made mani
fest among us by the fact tl 1 1
God sent His only begotten
Son into the world." This
quality of divine unselfishness
of the "love of God in Christ
Jesus, Our Lord" must also
characterize our love.
Proofs of Unselfishness
' We ask ourselves during
Lent "what can we do for
God?" The penances we prac
tice and the hardships we en
dure are the proofs of the un
selfishness of our love tor
Jesus Christ. And what vill
we get out of penitential
prayer and salutary penance?
Exactly what Jesus Christ re
ceived for the unselfish love
of the Incarnation. Before
final glory we, like Him, must
walk the way of the Cross.
-'-'There was a cross in the
Heart of God before there was
one on Calvary's Hill." And
Vthe servant is not greater
.than the Master." Lent brings
us the assurance that, after
its Good Friday, our unselfish
Jove will also have its Easter
.Sunday.
Support of Safety
Council Is Urged
"Medford Police Chief
Charles P. Champlin today
urged residents of Medford to
support the Medford Safety
'council and other like-minded
safety organizations as a
means of aiding the fight
against traffic accidents.
, Champlin said it is groups
like these, which promote in
dividual citizen action, that
can end highway losses-both
human and monetary. He also
urged support of the state
wide traffic safety program,
the efforts of local traffic en
gineers, police traffic super
vision and city street depart
ments. They all help, he said.
Last year, 462 persons died
On Oregon highways. The dol
lar cost of all traffic mishaps
in Oregon - including injury
and property damage esti
mates - was $76 million in
I960 alone.
This toll could have been
greatly reduced, Champlin
"said, if each Oregonian had
contributed a small amount of
time and money to traffic
safety.

Buy Soon
home owners have prevailed
upon valley nurseries to buy
shrubs and trees, and the
planting season this spring is
almost over, members said.
Names of trees selected for
city streets are listed at the
city hall, the committee said.
Information also is available
there for proper spacing of
trees along the parking strips
The street tree committee
selects trees and establishes
distances for trees planted in
the area between the street
and sidewalk only. If there is
no sidewalk, the trees select
ed are for the area between
the street and where the side
walk would be if installed
The committee will make
recommendations for trees in
private yards, but the proper
ty owner is not obligated to
follow the recommendation.
Tree planting along Win
chester, Mt. Pitt and Murray
aves., which was started last
year, is being completed this
spring, the committee said.
The Paul Scarlet Hawthorne
is being planted along t h e
streets.
Several Thundercloud plum
trees also are being planted
along Plum st. by Fred Sears
and Mrs. William C. Tycer.
Sears,who was coordinator
for the area planting, planted
three plum trees, and dedicat
ed them to his children. The
dedication is recorded in a
special book in the city hall,
the committee noted.
Certificate Presented
Each child will be present
ed with a certificate for fram
ing bearing the mayor's sig
nature and the city seal. The
plan is available to anyone
who wishes to plant a tree
on his street at no cost.
The dedication of a tree is
a commemoration plan pre
sented by the mayor to any
one who wishes to be a part
of the city beautification pro
gram with a living gift.
Sears also replaced Haw
thorne trees on Winchester
ave. with larger ones to con
form with the size of those
planted last year.
Mrs. Tycer told the commit
tee she would plant three
more plum trees this week
end along Plum st.

Two Went Out
And Then There Was One
Nothing stirred in the dark
house except the mouse. To
him it seemed a long time
since he had eaten. He was
very hungry. His pink, sensi
tive nose twitched as he test
ed the kitchen air. All day
he had slept behind the soap
box under the kitchen sink.
He moved with confidence
in the darker shadows. The
sensitive whiskers on his little
pointed face gave him ample
warning of the closeness of
objects. His reflexes were
keen; he moved with certainty
as if everything were bathed
in light.
Nibbles Holes
For the past several nights
he had nibbled holes in loaves
of bread, packages of cookies
and anything else that was
edible. He had even learned
how to open new-fangled
packages. His technique was
to locate where a fold doub
led the cellophane, a few nib
bles at the fold, and then the
pointed mouth could enter.
Tonight things were differ
ent. The bread, cookies, every
thing had disappeared. The
housewife had stored them in
metal boxes. So the mouse
scurried across the kitchen
floor. He sensed the presence
of Mrs. Mouse. She, too, was
hunting food. They ignored
one another, each going sep
arate directions. He scamper
ed over by the stove where
once he had found some
crumbs. She went back un
der the sink.
Suddenly to his sensitive
nose came the delectable odor
of smoked bacon. Without
conscious direction on his
part his legs carried him In
the direction of the delicious
odor. In the half-light he
could see the food; a small
piece of bacon perched on a
tiny platform. Connected to
it was a complicated set of
wires.
Looks Innocent
The thing looked innocent,
but In spite of his hunger he
had h strange sense of danger.
In his little mousebrain, a
twinge of caution arose. Two
opposite forces puhed at him
a fear of the strange con
traption and his appetite. His
appetite was the stronger. He
moved forward and tasted the
bacon.
Mrs. Mouse, under the sink,
nibbling on a spot of grease
on a paper that once had been

wrapped around a square of
butler, jumped with fright as
the sharp snap erupted in the
stillness of the kitchen. She
crouched, not knowing which
way- to run.
She heard faint scratching
noise; they came from the
direction of the kitchen stove.
She moved cautiously toward
the stove. She found him; he
was very still.
His eyes were wide open,
his legs straddled out at odd
angles. He did not respond to
the soft touch of her nose. Her
sensitive ears detected no
lightning - like heart beat.
Frightened at what she did
not understand she scampered
for the sanctuary of the un
dersink. The house was very

Flight Engineers
Hearing Scheduled
Washington (UPI) - President
Kennedy's special commission
to study the flight engineers
dispute will begin closed meet
ings April 11 to try to settle
the engineers' dispute with
airline pilots.
The commission said repre

sociation and seven airlines
would be at the sessions.
The panel wan created by
Kennedy to settle a six-day
wildcat strike by the flight en
gineers last mpnth in protest
against a ruling by the Na
tional Mediation Board.
The engineers claim the de

Begins Tonight
New York-IUPU-The Jewish
festival of Passover which
commemorates the flight of
the Israelites from Egypt, be
gins tonight at sundown.
The commemoration lasts for
eight days for Orthodox and
Conservative Jews and seven
days for Reform Jews.
Its feature is a Seder, which
is usually celebrated at home
in family circles with a table
set with special foods and ob
jects symbolizing the freedom
of Jews from the tyranny of
the Egyptian Pharaohs.
The story of the flight
which was led by Moses is de
picted in traditional songs,
and readings from the Hagga
dah, a book narrating the
events of Passover.
Three Tree Farms

OREGON'S LARGEST TAX SERVICE
up is a capital Investment of
perhaps $100 million plus a
lot of engineering skill.
The most accessible of the
sea bottom treasures appears
to be in the form of manga
nese nodules which also con
tain valuable amounts of cop
per, cobalt, and nickel.
These metallic lumps, the
product of sea-water chemis
try, generally range from one
to nine inches in diameter.
The largest ever dredged up
was about four feet long and
three feet thick. It weighed
1,700 pounds.
World - wide surveys made
during the international geo
physical year disclosed man
ganese nodule deposits cover
ing millions of square miles
of ocean floor.
These deposits running to
3.7 pounds per square foot,
aggregate many billions of
tons of manganese, a metal
essential in the production of
high grade steel.
The richest fields appear to
be in the eastern, southeast
ern and central Pacific.
John L. Mero of the Univer
sity of California's institute
of marine resource believes
the ocean floor's untapped
wealth is economically recov
erable. In an article public'.id by
Scientific American, Mero
said the sea bottom holds
enough manganese, copper, co
balt, and nickel to "meet
man's needs for a million
years at the present rate of
consumption."
Mining the nodule region
of the southeastern Pacific, he
estimates, would yield an an
nual return of 30 per cent
before taxes on a capital in
vestment of $100 million in a
hydraulic dredge and a pro
cessing plant.
Another recoverable ocean
floor asset is phosphorite, a
source of fertilizer. Exploita
tion of phosphorite deposits
off the coast of California
should, according to Mero,
bring "an annual return to in
vestors of 52 per cent after
taxes.
What's keeping the mining
men from going after all this
sea bottom wealth?
Too Many Unknowns
"From the business point
of view," Mero says, "there
are still too many unknowns
in deep-sea mining."
Who owns the ocean floor
beyond the three-mile limit?
Could a company get exclu,
sive rights to a given area in
the absence of an internation
al ocean-mining law? What
would the taxes be?
Once these unknowns are
resolved, Mono believes, the
sea bottom will prove to be
a cheaper source of many val
uable materials than the sour
ces now being mined on land.
