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.
