 Public Health Watch: Can the Cause of Autism Be Found?

       Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy, Jr., announced that his agency would “know what has caused the autism epidemic” by September of this year.

      Urgency certainly seems appropriate considering the high and increasing prevalence.

       The five-month timeline is “ridiculous,” said Dr. Gregory Poland, a vaccinologist as well as president and co-director of the Atria Research Institute. It would not be possible to design the study, approve it, fund it, carry it out, analyze it, and have it available for peer review in five months, he told ABC News.

      The only way RFK could meet the goal is by citing evidence already accumulated. And the evidence would have to explain the continuing rise.

      “We know it’s an environmental exposure. It has to be. Genes do not cause epidemics. It can provide a vulnerability, but you need an environmental toxin,” Kennedy said.

      What types of exposures have been increasing since the 1970s, and bumped up around 2020?

      It is repeatedly asserted that “vaccines do not cause autism.” But what about something found in most vaccines, a neurotoxin that triggers inflammation—that has been acknowledged to cause encephalitis and brain damage, which might result in autism especially in susceptible children?

       “The U.S. government knows vaccines cause autism. The truth is hiding in plain sight in the records of the vaccine court and their expert witnesses,” writes J.B. Handley. Handley is the father of a profoundly autistic non-speaking son. With his son, he invented the S2C (spell to communicate) method of communication, which has freed many autistic children from a “prison of silence.”

Butte Falls

By Dennis Powers

 Much of Oregon once looked the way that tiny Butte Falls does today. The smallest incorporated town in Jackson County with 450 residents, Butte Falls is located some 40 miles northeast of Medford on the thick forested Big Butte Plateau in the Cascade Range.

 Oregon’s vast forests didn’t attract much attention until the 1890s to 1900s, when the state possessed one half of all of the standing timber in the Pacific Northwest. When the forests of the Mid-West–such as in Michigan and Wisconsin–became over-logged, the sawmill companies looked elsewhere and bought up timberlands as around Butte Falls. Oregon’s main industry then became lumbering.

 The Dewings Company in Reed City, Michigan, was one such company, and it purchased timberlands in 1901 near the falls on Big Butte Creek. When the company became known as the Butte Falls Sugar Pine Lumber Company, Bert Harris became its first head. He knew the potential of building a sawmill that would utilize the 15-foot falls at Big Butte Creek to power its operations. As the mill was being built, Harris started the planning to create a manufacturing town of 55 acres with a 300-foot plaza in its middle. 

 Bert Harris recorded the plat map of Butte Falls in 1905, and the town’s name came from its nearby falls. In 1906, the sawmill became operational and four years later, the Pacific and Eastern Railroad reached the town from Medford. No longer isolated with rough dirt roads, the train brought tourists, passengers, and mail from the Valley. Although the railroad stopped there, this allowed more people to settle in the growing town, along with the loggers and mill hands. By then, the town had a hotel, inn, grocery store, two billiard halls, hardware and barber shops, residences, and e

Over the next decades, Butte Fall’s fortunes were tied to the railroad and the different lumber companies that ran the operations. In the 1920s, the Owen-Oregon Lumber Company (based in Wisconsin) acquired thousands of more timber acres, built a spur east of Butte Falls, and logged pines to Mt. McLoughlin. Once in Butte Falls, the railroad transported the logs on the main line to its mill on Medford’s outskirts. Owen-Oregon became bankrupt during the Great Depression, and the Medford Corporation (“Medco”) in 1932 acquired those assets.    

   Although Butte Falls was not a company town, its fortunes fluctuated as these companies did–and times then were difficult. The need for timber products brought better times just before and after World War II. Medco terminated its railroad operations in the early 1960s to use cheaper “gyppo” loggers, or independent logging crews and truckers; however, the town still grew as Medco did and by the 1970s, the company was a vertically-integrated wood products firm, one of the 1,000-largest in the country.        

Unfortunately, the boom ended when Harold Simmons acquired Medco in a hostile takeover during the 1980s. Known for his gaining control of companies and then selling off the assets for profit, he did this with Medco. After harvesting the timber, the leveraged-takeout specialist sold off the lands and mills. As lumbering stagnated over time with the Oregon economy, environmental regulations, and federal restrictions, so did Butte Falls.  

Residents today can drive to neighboring towns for their jobs, but the quaint, tiny town–with its mayor and city council–relies on tourists, hunters, and outdoorsmen for its fortunes. And its historical place in the Valley.
