Jr Ilin Today's Roundup By MALCOLM tPLEV STAT on Uie trail. Adherence to that tune bonored rule Is not easy for the adventurous indeed, much of the world's progress must be credited to those who have broken trial rule. But In mountain climbing, H'a a mighty good Uw to observe, as waa well demonstrated ou Ml. MeLoughlla Sunday. One would aay that If any group would be successful In a utile oll-the-trail exploring. It would have been the tlx husky lads from Henley and Poe raller who were on the mountain 8unday. And en can easily understand bow thee fellows, young, strong and resourceful, would be tempted to try something different on the descent of the peak. EPLET The result was a near-tragedy. It Is not the purpose here to lecture or criticise, but rather to point to the lesson, that others may take heed. A place where this writer. In younger years, was sorely tempted to stray from the trail was on the wall of Crater lake. Here the switch-backs on the trail max it look so easy to cut across (on the descent, of course) that one can hardly resist, despite the warning signs. There are those who hart disregarded those warnings to their sorrow. FA THERX art many who desert the highest praise for what they did Sunday and Monday In behalf ' of the fine young Klamath man who lay with battered body In the rock field high on the mountain. The companions of the youth on the hike, the Scout leaders who responded so quickly to the appeal for help, the doctor whose presence at the lake camp was so fortunate, the Poe valley and Henley men who gathered In the night to go to the aid of a neighbor these and others rose to the demands of the occasion to make a thrilling and heart-warming story. In the excitement and confusion, some mistakes were made, of course. There was s definite under estimation of the need for manpower on the moun tain Sunday night But within a few hours that deficit In rescue personnel was made up by the volunteer efforts of the Klamath county farmers, and that part of the story la worth a little amplifi cation bera today. see THERE'S a Paul Revere flavor to the story of Rex High and Glen Kester of Poe valley, riding through the countryside In the night to spread the alarm. They knocked on doors and called out, and In some case went Into bedrooms to wake sleeping farmers. "Get ready and well be back they said, and on their way back they picked up the volunteers, 11 gathering at the High place for coffee to help wax them up for the task ahead. In the early morning hours they were on the mountain. Farmers who had. worked all day In the hay-ftelds amaaed rangers with their speed and endurance aa they went up the trail to take over the heavy litter from the exhausted members of the original rescue party. It had been estimated that the stretcher party would get to the ambulance at 11:30 a. m. Young Preiser was tucked Into the ambulance at 1:40 a. m and waa In the hospital at Klamath Falls at 9 30 a. m. The farmers were perturbed that they hadn't been called sooner, and Indeed they might have well cut more time off the rescue period than they did If they had known sooner. In fmwmg down trie mountain trail. It was neces sary at times for an equal number of men to walk beside the stretcher-bearers, so the bearers could hold onto them with one hand and to the stretcher with the other. In crossing a swift creek, the outside crew stood In a line to break the current and make It easier to ford the stream without jostling the man an the stretcher. A number of the farmers were back at work the next morning, and still others attended the agricul ture field day at the experiment station. They proved what good physical condition will do for you, and, on occasion, for others. WHAT Is said about the farmer volunteers should not overshadow the outstanding contribution made by Crater Lake area scout executives, the doctor, ambulance attendants, state officer and Henley-Poe valley climbers who made up the original rescue party. Theirs was the first hard task, undertaken after a hard, fast climb up the mountain. They were short of wster, the supply having been used for the Injured youth. They had a terrific Job edging the stretcher across the high rock field where there wss no trail. Their performance will not soon be forgotten. All of these people can find satisfaction In having saved a young man of excellent record In citizen ship, scholarship and personal habits. It is a har rowing story, but It packs Inspiration and has a happy ending. Krug Arouses Resentment OT ever) body In Southern California Is enthusl- astio about recent Interior department com ment over the possibility of tapping Northwestern rivers (Including the Klamath) to wet the gullet of tha thirsty southland. The Long Beach Press-Telegram, for example, warmly criticises Interior Secrets ry Krug fur his recent remarks about a possible West Coast water system tyuig together all Uie river basins and sug gesting that eventually Pacific Northwest water might be used as far south as San Diego. The Long Beach paper sees in Krug s remarks a slsp at Csll.'omle In Its controversy with Arlsona over Colorado river water. "The unspoken point of Knig . . . seems lo be that California has no need for Colorado river water sought by Arlsona . , .: that If It does need It. It ran get It from other sources." sars the Press Telegram. It goes on to say that the Colorado river association of California declared months ago that California has no plan or intent to take water from the Columbia, The interior department evidently has taken It upon Itself to refute such assertions, though with out the consent of California." says the Long Beach paper In a piece that Is enlightening, indeed, to us j in this area. It's an angle that may not have I occurred to many In these parts. I These Days Br GEORGE t. SOKOLSKV IT does not appear that during our generation the Issue Is the Invasion of the authority of the state by the church, as It Is that the state Is occupying the church and making of It an Instrument of the state. It la not a question of rendering unto Caesar the things which are Caesar's, but rather that Caesar takes all and calls himself Ood. In the neo-paganism which goes by so many different names, the battle la against the concept that man In his moral phases transcends the power of the state because his responsibility la to the un knowable. Intangible, unpunishable, unkillable god. That concept tm tales the rulers of men who have been thrown up by war and revolution and who rule In fear and by terror. The solace of religion undoes their work, fur those who love Ood fear neither torture nor death and therefore are unbeatable. The expansion of the power of the state over the influence of religion first expresses Itself In the field of education. In many countries, the only available education has been church schools, of one kind or another, and that was true during the first two centuries of the territory which Is now the United States. Most of our best universities were founded as church schools. Harvard by the Con gregatlonalists. Columbia by the Episcopalians. Princeton by the Presbyterians, and so on. And that goes as well for the better preparatory schools. The best schools and colleges In such a country as China or Syria were founded by Christian mission aries. All the great universities of Europe were established by clerics. The secularisation of educa tion Is historically novel In our civilization and has not yet proved Itself, except functionally. Kept In Ignorance THE argument against tome forms of education, particularly the Roman Catholic form. Is that the object of the priests Is to keep the students In ignorance and It la often cited that In Spain no one knows about Darwin; yet, the most currently accept ed doctrine of evolution was established by the monk. MendeL In Soviet Russia, the Mendelian theory Is rejected in favor of the Mlchurln-Lysenko theory, which has not been established but Is based upon Marxian orthodoxy. I think that all the foregoing prove nothing Just as the converse proves nothing except that the human mind loves to generalize from the particular and. finding logic a difficult task and not especially entertaining, rushes to conclusions based upon mean ingless slogans. Thus, when Cardinal Spellman con tends that It is psychologically and even nationalist lcally wrong to warp a child's mind by causing ft to assume that It Is Inferior to other children because It obeys Its parents and attends a religious school, there Is an Immediate outcry of church versus state, which Is not the issue at all. If the Catholic or one of the approximately 250 Protestant sects or the Jews demanded that the state support their schools out of taxes, I should be among the first to oppose them. And my grounds would be that these religious schools are a sanctuary and a refuge from secular, amoral, functional, materialistic education and are too valuable to be corrupted by the expanding power of the state. I should. In such circumstances, accuse those who accepted stale aid of selling their souls for a mess of subsidies. Equal Rights Asked I HAVE never heard of such schools requesting state subventions either from the states or the federal government. What they have said Is that when social, extracurricular benefit are given to American children, like bus rides to school, or a glass of milk or orange Juice, or medical or dental supervision, such should be given to all children. It Is difficult, by any process of logic, to stretch this concept of equal advantage to all children to the sloganized Issue of the expansion of the church into the realm of the state. Perhaps sectarianism la important to some people, particularly to professional theologians, but those of us who are not theologians want no American child to grow up believing that to obey his parents places him or her at a hateful disadvantage and that equality of opportunity Is a myth for all who accept the traditions of their fathers. That Is the Issue. SIDE GLANCES I y L' oo wku xraca. stt.siMtim at.
