He told the annual meeting of the Oregon Council of Churches that "if we build our security at the expense of making' other peo ple feel insecure, we will have no security." He urged that the United States do more of its inter national aid work through the United Nations. Hitchcock, who Is Immediate past president of the council, said that one of the chief causes of war is "the deprived and de praved conditions of three-fourths of the peoples in the world," in cluding the non-whites who are "resentful of ideas of white su premacy." Hitchcock came here In the course of his campaign for Re publican nomination to the U. S. Senate. x New 4-H Club Organized NEW PINE CREEK A new 4-H livestock club was formed here last week with Raymond Cook volunteering his services as leader for the first year.

The top drawing card in last year's season was Moore Park, which drew 325,624 people. The park, open' the year around, is used heavily about 190 days a year, Bonney said. The next single drawing card was the swimming pool, which drew a total of 104 662. including 68,831 swimmers. The rest were spectators and users of the Jvad ing pool. Bonney said he calcu lates the city profit on each paid admission is about three fourths of a cent. The five supervised playgrounds. Kiwanis. Fairview, stukel, Pell- can and Roosevelt, drew a total of 127.463 users, and the six un supervised playgrounds drew a to tal ot 14.780. Veterans Memorial Park drew 14.300. and Maple Park drew 3120. NATATORIVM The Klamath Union High School Natatorlum drew 1,636 recreatlon- 1 users, and the four athletic fields had 102,004 users. Other recreation department fa cilities Include indoor sports and gym facilities, street sledding and special events. In computing the number of users. Bonney figured that each time a person used a facility, he constituted a user. So, if a single person used the parks more than once, he became "several users." Bonney said that the park sys tem costs approximately $3.60 per capita based on a Klamath Falls population of 15,000. This, he said, is considerably less than, recom mended by national recreational experts, but he said their recom mendation Is based on a nation wide average which does not take any special considerations into account.
