Croeley George Bain Charles Pickthorne The Rev. Armand Larive The Rev. and Mrs. Armand La rive arrived in Nyssa June 26, 1961, to assume their initial pas toral duties of St. Paul’s Episcopal church. They are at home at 313 Good avenue and their new phone number is 372-2938. The Rev. Mr. Larive is a son of Mr. and Mrs. Armand O. Larive of Hermiston, Ore. His wife, Ruby, is a daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Floyd Bunch of Wenatchee, Wash. The new Nyssa pastor attended schools in Hermiston and both he and Mrs. Larive are graduates of Whitman college in Walla Walla, Wash. They came to Nyssa from Bexley Hall in Gambier, Ohio, where he attended seminary. He will soon be ordained eider at the Episcopal church in Cove, Ore., and in the spring will be ordained priest in the Nyssa church. Water skiing presents many of the same problems as swimming with a few additional hazards. Only recently a skier was report ed drowned in an Oregon river because the pilot did not observe that the skier had fallen. Boating officials recommend that every boat towing a water skier have two occupants—one to pilot the boat and the other to observe or help the water skier. A new law in Oregon, effective Aug. 9, makes it mandatory that every boat towing a water skier have two people in the boat or a suitable curved mirror which enables the pilot to observe the skier. Another must in water skiing is the wearing of an approved- type life belt or life vest, ade quately fastened, that cannot be torn loose by impact of a fall. Contracting Disease Possible Other hazardous consequences of swimming and water skiing in public waterways are the possi bilities of contracting a commun icable disease, Dr. Wilcox ex plained. There is no assurance that such waters, regardless of remoteness of location or clear ness, are free of disease-producing germs. Boise Services Held Wednesday Morning For Joseph D.

Presents Additional Hazards How Far Toward Communism? More than a century ago Karl Marx in his Commun ist Manifesto, which is the bible of the Communist faith, laid dow n the program by which a country may be con verted to communism. He embodied the basis of it into ten steps—ten legislative measures which once instituted would eventually lead to the creation of a communist state. Your attention is invited to these ten steps as pub lished in the one hundredth anniversary edition of the Communist Manifesto. Here they are, word for word: “We have seen that the first step in the revolution by the working class to raise the proletariat (wage earners) to the position of the ruling class is to win the battle of democracy. “The proletariat will use its political supremacy to wrest, by degrees, all capital from the bourgeoisie (i.e., the property owners), to centralize ail instruments of production in the hands of the state . . . “Of course, in the beginning this cannot be effected by means of despotic inroads on the rights of property and the condition of bourgeois production . . . “These measures will, of course, be different in dif ferent countries. Nevertheless, in the most advanced countries the following will be pretty generally applic able: “(1) Abolition of property in land and application of all rents of land to public purposes. “(2) A heavy progressive or graduated income tax. “(3) Aboltion of all rights of inheritance. “(4) Confiscation of the property of all emigrants and rebels. “(5) Centralization of credit in the hands of the state by means of a national bank with state capital and an exclusive monopoly. “(6) Centralization of the means of communication and transportation in the hands of the state. “(7) Extension of factories and the instruments of production owned by the state; the bringing into cultiva tion of waste lands, and the improvement of the soil generally in accordance with a common plan. “(8) Equal liability of all labor. Establishment of in dustrial armies, especially for agriculture. “(9) Combination of agriculture with manufacturing industries; gradual abolition of the distinction between town and country, by a more equitable distribution of the population over the country. “(10) Free education for all children in the public schools. Abolition of the children’s factory labor in its present form. Combination of education with industrial production.” There you have the measures that constitute the grand strategy of communism. They were formulated by Marx and Engels a century ago. They are still the ground plan of the Marxist doc trine adhered to by the Mistaken in the present time. This is their model for defeating America without a shot being fired, just as Boss Khrushchev has predicted over and over again. It is important to note that Karl Marx did not imply that these measures would be associated with armed re volt. His conception was that the revolution would come through processes in which by degrees the methods of production would be centralized in the hands of the cen tral government. If you think over those ten proposals of Karl Marx, you will be able to find your own answer to the question as to what extent the Mistaken have been winning vic tories m the United States in the last thirty years or so. We are in less danger of being “buried" by someone else than we are of burying ourselves. —From Life Lines, June 5, 1961.
