Application of Natural
Laws to World Problems
Suggested to Rotarians
"Human Values In Nature as
Represented at Crater Lake," is
the title of a paper by Doris
Palmer Payne, Klamath history
Ian and research specialist, rend
to the Rotary club at Friday
noon's luncheon. , Tho . paper,
suggesting the application of
demonstrated natural laws .-to
both individual affairs and world
problems of sweeping import
ance, has been accepted for pub
lication in the- magazine "The
Living Wilderness." .
Contemplation of natural
truths such as are presented both
by the history and present cir
cumstances of Crater lako, Mrs.
Payne said, will show the way
to human- relationships which
will make this a happier world.
... Eyes on Hull
"Just as long ago the Psalmist
said. 'I will lift up my eyes, un
to the hills from whence cometh
my help,' so in tho present criti
cal period, we, too, lift our eyes
toward the hills and find, they
do not fail us.- On the contrary,
we discover that through modern
science nature reveals the ways
of the Creator In a manner
clearer than at any earlier
time,"-she said.
' 'Through respect for the laws
of nature, we may avoid the fu
tility of trying , to break them
knowing that we will only break
ourselves against them." To live
In accord with these laws and to
learn to use them for the greater
benefit of mankind is to march
forward on the path 'of progress,
both as persons and as peoples:
to Ignore them may be suicidal."
Lake s Formation
Mrs. Payne outlined the extra
ordinary story of Crater lake's
formation as reconstructed by
Dr. Howel Williams, University
of California geologist, showing
how, in a climatic volcanic erup
tion, support was withdrawn
from beneath the snowy summit
of Mt. Mazama, causing its en
gulfment and forming an abyss.
Moisture from snow and rain
then gradually accumulated in
the cauldron.
"It may be difficult," said the
speaker, "for some persons to be
lieve that there is anything de
pendable or orderly about a vol
cano, yet the story of Crater lake
undeniably indicates the truth of
this statement. Witness the fact
that the laws of nature, operat
ing in the formation of Mount
Mazama, produced results Iden
mssSk Mm.
tical with ' those ' we see In vol
canoes erupting, under similar
conditions today, onaming ua to
toll, as if It were yesterday, what
happened in that distant age. Nor
Is this an Isolatod instanco of the
dependability ..of 'natural law
Rather, tit .is. a striking- Illustra-J
tlon of the orderliness of forces
which lie behind every super
ficial feature of-change, wheth
er past, present or future, and
determine its character.- To be
come aware of the continuity of
events leading to formation of
crater lake results almost Inevit
ably in a readjustment of our
timo porspectlvo and a clearer
-vision of the manner in which de
velopment takes place through
processes of change. ... .
Mutual Adjustment : '
."Hero at Crater lake is illus
trated also a perfect mutual ad
justment of complex phases of
nature to one another, each con
tributing its share to the har
monious whole; each thereby
bearing witness to the oneness
of all natural elements through
all time. . . Thia concept ap
propriately has been called the
unity of nature."
Mrs. Payne went on to say
that - "the Importance of the
broader perspective of time
formed through observation of
naturo can be realized best by
contrasting it with our usual at
titude, in which we tend to refer
all events in the world to our
selves; in which our temporary
unit is the span of our own lives.
On the other, hand, the view in
spired by nature prompts us to
see our own and all human ac
tivity as related to the moving
field of time represented by tho
universe. . . . Without proper fo
cus and understanding with re
gard to time, accurate analysis
of tho significance and trend of
events . . . becomes a matter of
chance with the odds against us.
On the other hand, a realistic at
titude toward time and its assoc
iated train of events helps make
possible the orderly application
of logic and reason to situations
otherwise appearing hopelessly
complex." .1'.; ; ...
Nature's Influence
The influence exerted by full
recognition of the inherent unity
of nature is probably most sig
nificant of all, the speaker said.
Pointing out that widespread ne
gation of this principle in inter
national affairs has permitted

"If tho people of each threat

the political corollary that what

would have been empowered to
unite to subdue the aggressors
