POOLE'S MOBILE HOMES 1122 SOUTH RIVERSIDE ; "Where Financing Is Easy and Trades Accepted" , Tablets By R. E. NEALON Mail Tribune Table Rock Correspondent Last Saturday evening we attended the Roosevelt memorial dinner at Medford. It was the thirteenth since they were started in 1951, and Judging from the number of people present, it is getting more popular each year. The turkey and ham dinner was spliced with the usual side dishes, and after partaking of this sumptuous dinner, we sat back and listened to introductions of distinguished guestB, and the reading of letters from those unable to attend. According to an applause meter, Jack Kennedy's letter of praise and good wishes was at the top. Other names and letters that rated high in cluded Senator Wayne Morse, Hon. James Roosevelt, Hon. Robert Duncan, who had his leg in a cast, but was so jovial and apparently happy about it that some thought it might be a hoax. ' Hon. Gaylord Nelson, guest of honor and speaker for the occasion, proved to be a wonderful speaker, using language that the layman could understand. By his work in Congress, he is fitted to explain national and world conditions, bills passed and others that have failed to pass. His speech sparkled with wit, but nothing that Republicans, even Barry Goldwater, could take offense at. He said that so far he had been unable to tell what Goldwater was for, saying he seemed to be against everything, but didn't say what he was for. His speech helped to make this a memorable occasion. Dur ing the program, we heard once again the magic word of F.D.R. "The only thing we have to fear, is fear itself" which caused we Americans to stop and wonder how we could be so stupid with people actually going hungry, men who had born the battle for their country raking leaves and peddling apples while warehouses were bulg ing with produce which could not be sold because people had no money. Those people who are interested in the upkeep of the Antioch cemetery are reminded that the clean-up day this year is set for Saturday, May 25 at 9:30 a.m. Please bring rakes, hoes, lawn mowers, and any suitable equipment. We wonder if those people who seem to think that President Kennedy is not trigger happy enough and lets Khrushchev push him around too much realize what starting a war in these times would be like. General Sherman during the Civil War said war was hell. Mul tiply that a hundred times and it would still be far short of what war would be like with our present fighting equipment. A man who went through World War II with General Patton recently said "The next war will be a short one." This coming from a man who has been through it and knows the war game from A to Z should cause us to think before we start pushing anyone around. We feci that JFK is sitting on a powder keg, and is doing his best to keep it from exploding. The following quote from Billy Graham gives his idea of world conditions. He likens it to Damocles, and the chair he was forced to sit on. "President Kennedy has reminded us that the whole world now sits in that chair, with total destruction hanging by a hair above its head. Nor can we escape by turning our heads and wishing it would go away. The blade keeps on swinging, and the thread that holds it grows thinner and more frayed with each passing day. Even the most naive among us must now recognize that we will eventually face a crisis that will make the recent Cuban affair pale into insignificance. Many factors lead us to the realiza tion that we stand on the threshold of unprecedented events, events which will test the moral and spiritual toughness of this nation as it has not been tested since the Civil War." . , Mrs. Ida Hamilton,' who passed away recently in Medford, was well known here, where she frequently visited.
