FRIDAY. APRIL 20. 1962 10 A Lenten Message Attitude Has Much To Do With Christian Behavior MEDFOHD MAIL TRIBUNE, MEDFORD. OREGON REV. J. Bv THE CARTER ROBERTS Pastor, Chuich Of The Naiarant, Frankfort, Ky. Written for UPI ' ''Seeing that you have put off the old man with his deeds; and have put on the new man." Colossians 3:9, 10. Our kind of world needs changing. Pemaps the place to begin is our own human attitudes, because attitude has much to do with Christian be havior. However, there is a real need for Divine guid ance, and we must not be come too charmed with "posi tive thinking" as to forget the significane of Godly negatives "Blessed is the man that walketh not in the council of the ungodly, nor slandeth In the way of sinners, nor sittoth in the scat of the scorn ful." Psalms 1:1. What makes the change? It Is not through human intelli gence, nor docs it come from Poison Oak? Try a Bottle of ZEMACOL You mutt bt fariifitd or your money chtcrfully refunded. Get a bottle today at WESTERN THRIFT the halls of learning, but the change is wrought througn the spirit of Our Blessed Lord. "Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new crea ture . , ." Corinthians II 5:17. The new man does good and lives right, not out of fear, but because he loves. God comes to man, and the result is perfect love. In the words of St. Augustine, "Thou hast made us for thyself, O God, and the heart of man is never satisfied until he has found Thee." As we draw nearer to Our Blessed Lord this season of Lent, let us remember our fasting and sacrifices accom plish nothing unless these are from the heart, from devotion and love.

Sail Every Bloomin' Thing! "Will you crush it and neglect it and let it die or will you cherish and nourish and love it and let it fly?" Gene Favell, Klamath Falls, Division 15A lieutenant-governor of Kiwanis Internation al, asked that question this week concerning "this elusive eagle of liberty." And, he de clared, "It is as you will." Favell, paying his official visit to Medford Kiwanis club at its noon luncheon at Rogue Valley Country club, spoke on "Freedom, Our Individual Re sponsibility.'- His subject the 1962 of Kiwanis. "I am here," the Kiwanis official said, "to speak out against the deadly enemies of free men-communism and its forerunner, socialism." He told Kiwanians and their guests, "I see forces viciously at work that would strip every man of his belief in God, his heritage of freedom, his trust in love, justice and mercy." Godless imperialistic com munism menaces tree men, Favell warned. "In Mr. 'K's' words, 'We will bury you!' -and he will - if our present complacency continues or if we loan him enough money so that he can buy the goods to do it," the lieutcnant-gov-' ernor said. I "If we neglect this great heritage of freedom - so dear ly purchased - we shall fail to meet the true challenge of our time," Favell declared. He further warned that "a free society can destroy itself through indifference, through lethargy or through coward ice." Asserting that he "would rather be dead than red," Favell asked his audience to I from consider the slakes: On the Russian side he pointed to the wall in Berlin and what it says about the right not to travel and the right not to emigrate, to Buda pest in 1056 and what it meant for the right not to alter one's government, to a controlled press, to a single slate of elec tion candidates, to a cradle-to-trie-grave control of lives in such details as choice of jobs, what to react and where to go to school.

The answer to socialism and communism, Favell main tained, "must lie In the su perior performance of indi vidualism and freedom. Ob vious as that truth is, it is in danger of disappearing, and we must work to keep it il luminated." Restrict Business Favell, who owns a men's store, pointed to the "tragic irony" of each year enacting more and more laws which restrict business in order preserve free enterprise; of socializing more and more segemcnts of the economy in order to avoid socialism; of writing more and more laws whose effect is to equalize the spendthrift and the thrifty, the drone and the worker, the incompetent and the skill ful, the dullard and the scholar, in order to save the country from communistic equalizers. He asked if it has become too dark to see that, if people continue to demand more government than they are able to pay in taxes, that the result Is not only increas ing inflation but ultimate economic disaster. Favell as serted that "the New Frontier could be this country's last frontier." The lieutenant governor stated that, long before any government can give its peo ple all they want, it will have taken from them all that they have. He declared that a peo ple which characteristically seeks freedom from respon sibility ends up with freedom from treeriom itself. Means of Survival "... A democracy can only survive if its citizens are in telligent enough to under stand it, Industrious enough lo operate it and responsible enough lo preserve it , . , ," Favell stressed. He added, "You cannot inherit freedom -you have to fight for it every day: The speaker said il is not enough just lo be against the enemy, and he gave a number of suggestions for positive ac tion. He, slated that people of this country should inform themselves in order to sell their own way of life and hould acquaint themselves with the goals of the enemy. ravel further sugaested sub scribing to a good news maga zine in order to stay informed, taking an active part in a po- inical party and watching for the strong socialist influence which is trying to take over both parlies and getting into (lie fiKht for freedom as a member of a service club. Advocates Support He advocated strong sup port of churches, open re sistance against the sale of goods to I lie Soviet empire, arrangement of study courses for employees, furnishing views and suggestions to state and federal legislators, giving time to youth organizations, stavinc close lo one's chil dren, showing respect for law and setting an example tor others. Favell termed indivdual re sponsibility the twin of free dom. He pointed to belief in the individual, moral living, law, love of God as ideals of this country winch are denied, dis regarded or have other mean ing under communism. The Kiwanis official maintained that these "pillars of our strength" are being under mined by "a new insanity called progressive education." lie declared that a second vil lain is the status of I he enter tainment and literature. Progressive Education In progressive education, Favell said, "everything is sacrificed for togetherness ami the doctrine of individual responsibility is trampled in the dust " He spoke of vio lenre. cynicism and sadism in enU'il.iininent and said "we need a fresh bree.e of new honesty, new idealism and new integrity." Anions the goals of com munism he listed I'. S. ac cent nice ot coexistence as the onlv alternative to atomic w ar. development ' of the il-I llision lha! total disarmament j by ttie I'.

China to the I'nited N itiiinj. Other goals are resisting at tempts to outlaw the Com munist party, doing away with loyalty oaths, getting control of schools, infiltrating the press and gaining key posi tions in radio, television and the movie industry, infiltrat ing the church, unions and big business, discrediting the American Constitution, sup porting socialistic movement to give centralized control over culture, discrediting and dismantling the federal bu reau of investigation, promot ing inflationary programs and capturing one or both of the major political parties of the U. S. Communist Gial He also mentioned as a communist goal, the repeal of the Connally reservation so the U. S. cannot prevent the World Court from seizing jurisdiction over domestic problems. Favell mentioned two teach ers who spoke in support of socialism after one of his talks and who maintained that no socialist-country has ever be come communistic. He said that their attitude is typical of many of today's writers, teachers and so-called think ers who seem lo attach scant value to economic liberty, thinking of it as not applying lo themselves but to business men, raven declared that these people fail to realize that when economic liberties are abridged or destroyed, all other liberties are abridged or destroyed with them.

' Mountain Building Era Reviewed by Geologist with freedom," Favell told his audience. The Kiwanis division leader j said that Gus Hall won a vic tory in Oregon - a victory for communism. He stated that Hall got into this state be cause people in positions of authority were not strong enough to take a stand against him. Favell said he is scared by socialism and the cradle to the grave philosophy. He spoke of the coming to the West of his forebears and said they did not ask anyone to take care of them. "The fron tiers were not pushed back and the battles were not won sitting in a rocking chair," Favell remarked. The Kiwanis official point ed to the change in weaponry since colonial days. He said that hostilities in a nuclear era bring threat to life on a much wider scale and asked if liberty is still so dear as to be worth the risks of physical destruction and harmful genetic effects to succeeding generations. He asked if the value choices have really changed because of the change of weaponry. Favell then brought out that death is death and slavery no matter under whom and that the change in the reach of death posed by nuclear weapons and Eugene A major m o u n tain building episode that took place about 400 million years ago formed the north ern Sierra Nevada, an Ore gon geologist said this week. Vernon McMath, assistant professor of geology at the University of Oregon, demon strated this theory of age of the Sierra Nevada in a paper presented before the Cordille ran Section of the Geological Society of America. The so ciety met at the University of Southern California, Los An geles, this week. Title of McMath paper is "Paleozoic Stratigraphy of the Taylorsville Area, North ern Sierra Nevada, Califor The 400 million year old i episode, McMath said, took place when the ancestral Si erra Nevada was worn down by erosion and subsided to be low sea level. It became the site of intermittant explosive volcanism for another 200 million years. During that period the volcanic accumula tion reached a thickness of 25,000 feet, which greatly ex ceeds the height of the largest of modern volcanoes. McMath pointed but that this ancient episode is the third and oldest now known In the Sierra Nevada. In com parison, the youngest episode took place about 130 million years ago.

Even before the first thirteen States became United States, men were speaking for freedom loud and clear. Today Americans speak out for freedom many ways in Congress, in local government, in neighborhood activities. Some speak out for freedom in other languages, in other lands. And millions of Americans speak out for freedom every time they buy U.S. Savings Bonds. Every Savings Bond yon buy is an investment in freedom. While you're saving money for your own family's future, you're helping Uncle Sam tend to the business of keeping men free today. Perhaps you don't speak out for freedom in the same tone of voice when you buy a Bond as Patrick Henry did in his famous speech. But you speak every bit as surely. And every bit as proudly. Why not speak out for freedom now? Buy Bonds at the bank or on the Payroll Savings Plan where you work.
