WASHTNCTON, D.C. - Nle^ttlm e ■is the tim e for the little people to
be abroad, dancinp their danccs. doing their work and repairinp

Nowhere is this belter known than in Ireland. There the little people
are hoiisehold fnmilinrs. T h e r e m any floors are not swept between

The Statesman
Lesson for August 31, 1052
PO LIT IC IA N is han who
A goes into politics os a man soc.s
into any game— to win. We wants office, wants people to vote for him .
popularity is his stock In trade. A
statesman, on the
other hand. Is not
Temembcred f o r
t h e n u m b e r o f
votes he com m and
ed, nor (or the num* her of times he was
electcd, nor (or the
particular titles he held. A statesm an’s
claim to fam e is not based on w hat
he did .(or himself, but on w hat he did for his countrj*.
That is why a '^statesman is a dca<l
politician/'. Some tim e has to go
by, before it can be finally said whether any particular politician's
career w as good for his country or
not.
Achieving U nity
tn A V ID , K ing o( Israel, has been
^ dead long enough now so that wc can w ith great assurance call
him a statesman. W e saw a few
weeks ago (Aug, 10 and 17) that Saul
faced m uch the sam e problems that face nations today, but (ailed to
solve them, largely because he was the wrong kind of m an. David had
the same problem s; but he solved
them.

A sailor stationed on a far-'flung U.S. outpost was noted for his
loyalty to his fiancee. Then one day
he received a callous letter tellini:
him that she was going to m arry a
4-F, and would he please return iier picture.
He was so upset by this treachcry that his buddies rallied to avenge
their pal. A collection of phot<i- graphs, snapshots and pin-up girls
was made from every fellow on lhi>
base. They were packed Into a huge
crate and shipped to the fickle wench.
Upon opening the crate, she found a note reading: "Please pick out
your picture and return the rest to me. This Is a little embnrrnssing*but
I don't rem ember which one is yours."____________________ _____

have greater financial protection
tmder social security than ever
before.
Beginning with the month of
September, retired workers 65 or
over now receiving old-age insur
ance benefits. wiH get more mon
ey. Monthly checks to survivors
of most insured workers who have
died also w ill be increased. These
larger monthiv checks are the
result of the 1952 amendments to
the social security law enacted on
July 18, 1952,.
If asked just how much these
increases w ill amount to in dot
lars and cents for workers and
their families now receiving old-
age and survivors insurance bene
fits, 1 would like to point out-that
the amount of the increase w ill
vary> but the new law provides
generally for a 12^% increase over the present payments. Most people now rcceivinR old-age insur
ance payments w ill get about $6
month more; some w ill get more,
some less. '
These increases w ill be made
autotnaticnllv and w ill be includ*
ed in the September checks which w ill be sent out at the regular
mailing early in October.
A representative of this ofEce
w ill be in Mocksville again on
Sept. 10th, at the court house,
second floor, at 12:30 p. m ., and

Governor Adlai Stevenson Is
divorced man and member of the
Unitarlnn Church. So far as we
know, no divorced man has ever
been elected president. We had
one Unitarian president, W illiam
Howard Taft.
It is a little less than two
months until somebody w ill be
elected as president to serve for
four years. Regardless of who is
elected the fool's paradise i n
which we have nil been living for
many years* is liable to explode.
No one can tell what a day may

A life-ionR Democrat, who lives

Aqainst Liquor
San Francisco, C alif,, Aug. 24.
Dear M r. Stroud:-1 w ill have
to agree with my old friend, R , S.
Meroney, that preachers have iiiil*
ed to stop the liquor trafHc in
our nation, bui 1 thank God that
they have tried to stop it. 1 don’t
agree thar all honor goes to the
victors. 1 think those who have
tried and failed deserve much
credit and honor, too. One of
our great writers, Elbert Hubbard,
said, “ There is no such thing as a
necessary evil."
1 have no solution to offer in
the effort to abolish liquor. It's a
thine that each person must de
cide for thL'mseivi'5. As for me,
“l*m agin it.” Sincerely,
FR A N K T . E A R LY .

1953 Agricultural
Program
One of the important new feat'
ures of the 1953 Agricultural Con
servation Program w ill be the con*
tact of Individual farmers by their
elected PM A community commit*
teemcn, sav$ R . G . A llen, Chair
man of fhe Davie County PMA
Committee.
T iie soil and water conservation
practice, or conservation measure
to be carried out by Davie County
farmers under the 1953 A CP w ill
be th se which the individual far
mer and his community commit
teeman determine are the most
needed on the farm.
It is believed that this import
:mt step in program development
can be expected to result in reach'
ing more acres with needed con
servation practices and in using
Agricultural Conservation Pro
gram assistance for the most ur
gently needed practices.
When the community commit
teemen visits an individual farm, he w ill be prepared to go over the farm with the farmer and help de
termine what practices or couser*
vation measures arc most needed.
A year*by-year schedule of conser*
vation operations worked out for
each farm w ill enable the farmer to use program assistance most effectively.
M r. Allen urges farmers to take :)dvantage of this opportunity to
ijet the most effective help from
the program, from the committeeman and from the agencies avail* able in the county to help him
with his conservation program Ir
w ill be a test of the committee
system and a test of the Nation's efforts to assure the needed continued production.
In our opinion, this use of local farmers as members of com
mittees to administer farm pro*
»rams is putting democracy to
work to serve the inseresrs of all the people. Progress has been made, but in this direct and concentrated eflort farmers and their
elected committeemen* w ill determine the effectiveness of this democratic operation in assuring ing continued and increasing production.
J. L . Foster, of China Gwive,
has accepted a position as sales,
man with Allison*Johnson Co.
M r. Foster is a native of Davie,
but left this county about SO
vears ago.

Toothache was produced in each

be those of pain.
The point at which pam was fell

structed to push up the current until they could stand it no longer

students were asked to set the cur

Living Better in *52
M IN N E A PO LIS - The averag.^
Am erican con.«-umer is living 30 pei cent belter than in 193‘>. This is hl> per capita share of tlie rise in pro
duction of consumer goods and serv
ices over pre-war output; if you haven’t gotten your share, inflation
has probably “ hi.'Xh.inckcd” it atw
delivered it lo somebody else, says
the fam ily uconomics bureau of a national life insur:mce cmnpany.
.^ctually the total production of ol consumer goods and servicos is ui
00 per cent form but lh(.> .suppi> per person is only 36 per crnt large'i
because our population is 24 m il lion greater than it was in lfl3r
Food production is 35 per ccnt larj; or, or 14 per cent more per capita
this shrinks to about 11 per con'
more per capita after allowing foi
increased U.S. exports of food. !t
spote of defense activities, our fac
tory civilian goods production i<
greater by an estimated 80 per cen' than the pre-war volume, yielding
nearly 5S per cent more m anufactured goods for each consumer. Vol
ume of services— m edical attention, hotel lodgings, dry cleaning, etc.~
is nearly 65 per cent greater, or
about 40 per cent more service
available per capita.
There are Increases in actual
goods and services for belter living, the report emphasizes, adding that
this is what has really raised our Am erican standard of living, and
not the vast increase in the number of dollars in circulation, which has
merely produced the inflation that has cheated m illions out of their
share of the im provem ent.
Soienoe Explains How
Stars Burn Minus Air
How can stars be balls of fire, if
there is no oxygen in space? It true that ordinary burning, as we
know it on E arth, requires oxygen.
In a wood fire, for example, atoms of carbon in the wood join with
oxygen atom s from the air to form molecules of carbon dioxide. Hydro
gen atom s in the wood sim ilarly combine with oxygen, to form water
molecules. However, the Sun and other stars do not ‘'b u m " in the
usual sense. They m aintain their
outflow of energy by a process
which does not involve the combina
tion of different atoms to form molecules. In this reaction the nuclei of
atom s change their characteristics. This process is believed to Involve
nuclei of hydrogen (the fuel) which eventually form nuclei of helium
{the d5h}. Such a process yields far
m ore energy than ordinary burning, w ith temperatures of m any m il
lions of degrees. If the hydrogen Vbomb can be m ade successfully, it
would presum ably operate in some •im iU r -manner.
Or Poremon
A f t e r a m a n is d e a d , nnd
indeed w hile he is still alive» wc
ought to rem em ber the best about
him and forget the worst. 1'hal is
how wc w ant to be treated, our
selves. But hum an
beings arc so perverse that wc often
do just the opposite.W c rem em ber th e
worst, forget th e
best. This is so in the ease of th e
great K ing David.A novel was once
written about him
in which his lie was
Dictured as a curve
ligh in the m iddle, bending down
sharply a t both ends. After his great
sins of adultery and m urder, so the story went, he went on down and
down hill to the end. This is not the picture we get from the Bible. In
m any ways later days were sad;
his fortunes declined, as wc say. But his, soul did not decline. The latter
days of D avid show us how even a m an who has sinned can rise again,
how even an ageing m an can grow
in soul.■
Signs of G row th
I^ O T THAT a m an has to sin as
David did in order to grow. In
order to be healthy it is not neces
sary lo be half-dead with ever first;
yet even after a long stay in the
sanitarium it is possible for a m an
to make his w ay to full health and
strength.Now David, though he fell,
"did not blind U s soul with cl.iy.’' The experience struck
dOAvn his pride; he realized with shame w hat he bad done. Some
m en m ust wake bitterly to the
fact of their own weakness be
fore they can begin to take hold
of God's strength. A t any rate, we can see signs of growth in
David's soul.One of these signs Is hum ility be
fore God. Take the story of his flight from his capital, for example,
He could have hardly been in a worse stale. H is loved son Absalom
had become a rebel, his throne wa; in. danger, his friends were lurnin.f?
against him , even his life was not sofo. Anolher m an m ight have coiu-
m itled suicide, or sat in his de
serted palace bitterly aw aiting the
end. Another m an m ight have re
turned Shim ei's foul language, curse
for curse.
But David moves through all thi« as a m an who realizes he dcserve>5
his troubles, knows it is God who ..
bringing these hard things to pass, and bows hum bly under whatever God sends. H is kingdom was shrink
ing, Init his soul v/as growing again.
Is Ihc Y oung M an Safe?
IIN O T H E B plain sign of Inward
^ growth was D avid's atlitudc lo
his bad son Absalom . T hat younr. m an had ceased to be a son, bul
the old m an did not cease to be n father. The yoimg m an would have
stopped at nothing, he would have killed his father without hesltatlns,
in order to gain the kingdom for
himself. B ut D avid was w illing lo lose the kingdom, if by so doing he could keep from losing his son.
General Joab, a professional
killer, could see no point in David's generosity. He believed
David should be a king first and
a father afterwards, it was
Joab who against D avid’s strict orders fbially killed Absalom .
But in death as in life, D avid loved that wild young m an. No more tragic
scene is found in history than David’s lam ent, "W ould God 1 had
died for thee, A Absalom , m y son,
m y son.” It does not sound lil:e a lam ent for a dead enemy, and it
was not; it was a father's grief for his son. The grief cam e late; David
should long before those days have remembered his duty as a father to
Absalom. B ut late though it was David's tears show lhat in him his
soul still grew.• • 4
No Cheap Sacrlfico
^ N E o t h e r sign of soul-growth
comes to the surface: a single sentence from D avid on the da:/
when he bought the land where liir temple w as to be built where
O m an fA raunah) would have give>> the land free; but D avid insisted o:i
paying the full value. " I w ill not of fer burnt offerings unto the Lord
: m y God w hich cost m e nothing," he
’ said.No one would have blamed
him for taking advantage of the owner, outting the price a little.
W hen D avid was a younger m an he m ight have done It; but noi
now. No one else would know it, perhaps; but God would know It.
It was a sign th at D avid was \y.
: longer the half-grown soul he hvc once been. F or a m a n never reall
; grows up till he does w hat he doe;; not because of fear, or am bition, c
: reputation, nor for any reason bi ! because he knows how God is go
- ing to look at it.

Raps Preachers
Dear tirotlier Stroud:—It pleas
ed me that you published my let
ter in one of your recent issues,
and made the comment that 1 was
“wrong and mistaken.” But ii was
rather disappointing to find rhat
you, like most of the other "one
track mind” preachers and edi
tors, assir.ncd such a belligerent at
titude, and straved Irom the facts
in the matter to carry vour point.
1 simply said ^hat there was a
time In Hickory when it was im
possible to buy whiskey, but af
ter state prohibition a bootlegging
system developed, and whiskey
was sold in Hickory, and about
all of the other towns In the state.
It docs not make any difl^erence
how long you lived In Hickory be
fore 1 was born, or how long you
may live there after I am gone,
the above is true, and I was not
wrong or mistaken, and thous.
ands of oeoplc would testify to
the truth of mv statement.
I do not iay that the sale and
use of drink is right, either mor
ally or from an economic stand
point. I believe it is hurting and
degrading the American people.
B u tl think the Prohibition Prea
chers and the fanatic reformers
are making it worse In their at.
tempt to use “ force restraint.'
Out of curiosity on last Satur
day, Aug. 23,1 visited one of the
more popular “ beer p a rlo rs ,'

two were Catholics and three be
longed to no church at all.
So there you are—the preachers
are “agin” such places, but ihelr
members and followers are sup
porting and keeping them in bus
iness.
Why don’t the Preachers leave
politics and civil law alone and
devote some of their time to the
snn County officers, headed by
Sheriff Alex Tucker, and brought
to M ocksvillc and lodged in ja il.
Paul Godhey, 37, of Route 4«
was charged with aiding Ward to
escape after the killing. It is said
Codbey drove Ward to Davidson
County after Ward had hidden
his pick up truck, and c.ucred
Godbey^s car. Godbey was arrest
ed and lodged in ja il early Mon
day morning, but posted a $1,000

fn m illions of television homes,
there Is little excitement generated
by the anemic and thoroughly un
realistic sound of a gun s shooting.This problem— the report of a pis
tol shot coming over the vlowor's loudspeaker with half the impact of
a pop gun—is being solveri.An electronic dcvice that produces
a much more authentic sound of a revolver shot has been developed by
NBC’s Engineering Developmenl Group, at the roquest of the net
work’s special eflects department. The "gun shot Teinforcer," as it Ip
called by the engineers, will bt placed In operation soon.
The device, wiiich operates automatically, is housed in a rectangu
lar unit* the size of a typewriter
case. It is plugged into the system or line carrying the .«jound portion of
the TV program. When the blank
pistol is fired in the studio, the
sound of the shot irlgi'er.s a circuit
in the “ gun shot reinforcer” which
instantaneously produces its own gun shot.
The sound which is-heard at home is a combination of -the actual pis*
tol shot in the studio and the elec* tronic gUA shot. The acuinulatlve
cffect is “ poowww" or a perfect sound reproduptlon of a gun shot.

Legion of Mary Defies
Communists’ Threats
HON G K O N G — rille e n hundred
members of the Shanghai Legion of M ary, a Rom an Catholic lay organ
ization, defied all'efforts of Communist police agents to make them
sign prepared "confe^ions” admitting "counter-revolutionary” activi
ties against the state.
Legionnaires said here that half
of the 40 persons who actually
signed the ‘'‘confessions” were neither m em bers of the organization
nor Catholics, while the remainder were tricked into signing.
One trick, according to the legion mem bers, was to spread false*
stories that priests identified with
the movement had signed. One
young girl, after hours of grilling,
said: " If the priests have confessed, release them £rom prison and Jet
them tell us to sign these form.-:. We w ill flock her^ in droves then
w ithout being forced by the police.
The Legion of Mary, which has resisted attem pts by Communist au
thorities to set up a “Nationar Catholic Church" in China independ
ent of the V atican, was outlawed in
Shanghai last September under a
decree issued by the M ilitary Coun
cil there... '
“W here Cross the Crowded
Ways of Life”
HEL IG IO N Chat cannot be appli
to daily living, religion that is a
Durely solitary affair, has nevor been typical of the best in Chrl??-
tianity. Christianity has somethinp
to say to the world, our word, our
world, something to do In it. Chris
tianitv in retreat, in hiding, is not
full Christianity.
Perhaps we owe more of Uil;;Ideal to D avid than we reaPxe.
For when he came to the Ihrovt*.(he ark—sacred symbol of t‘-.«
presence of Cod—was in a lltH?
out-of-lhe-way place where
could know of It. D avid took it ark and bronght It to tlie nation’s
capital.
So wherever today the church
suinds literally or figuratively al
(he crossroads of life, challenging,
inviting, w inning m en, a constant
reminder og God, we should be
thankful to D avid, who set the sym
bol of his religion In the very center
of his nation's principal city.• • •
Fnllh Faces Forw ard
ON E M O R E thing m «st be mentioned, w hich we owe a t least in

By contrast, In the 1930's the child
population declined, despite an in- . crease in tlie population os a whole. '
The decline in the child population during that decade was so rapid
that the number of Am erican young
sters by )940 was actually smaller
than in 1020, and those under age
5 were fewer than in 1910.
The decline of the ‘30’s in child
population was reversed by the up
surge of births during World W ar
II and the postwar period, and by
the savings of m illions of juvenile
lives through lowered mortality rales resulting from improved
health conditions.

Champion Taxes
Champion, lilte all other citizens, paid unprecedented high taxes during the year. Its income and property taxes came to more than $18,000,000. The total of $18,000,000 is more than all of the dividends paid to Champion stoclcholders in the firat 53 yeai-s of the company’s existence. Durm g the past 18 years, Champion has increased its over-all mill efflciency enough to reduce annual costs $20,000,000. This one year’s tax bill of $18,000,000 $128,080,000 practically wiped out the entire saving. It amounted to almost half of all salaries and wages paid during the year.
In addition, the company paid $G00,- 000 for social security for employees and, as required by law, it withheld from employees and paid to the federal government $4,320,000 they had earned to pay their own social security and personal income taxes.
Champion is owned by its stockholders. They elect the company management. And they have been willing, on the basis of that management’s record, to peirifiit most of the company’s earnings to be plowed back into the business — approximately three times as much as they have received for risking their savings. As a result, the company has been able to increase its production and improve its position at a steady rate.

For the members of the organization, an automatic cost of living bonus was adopted during the year and the vacation policy w as amended to increase yearly vacations from two weeks to three weeks for all employees with fifteen or more years of service.
Chataipion’s disabling injury rate continued at the very low level of 2.03 per million man hours of exposure. This is fa r below the 10.9 average fo r the industry as a whole, according to National ^ e t y (Council statistics.
Champion^s insurance program includes life, hospital-surgical, and health and accident coverage. A pension plan was inaugurated in 1946, .and a t the end of this fiscal year 108 retired employees were receiving annuities under the plan.

During the year Champion inaugurated an economic education program aimed at broadeiiing the general understanding of how the Am erican business system operates within the fram ework of pur w ay of life to produce the m aterial benefits which have won as our high standard of living. This program is being made available to all employees and to aroropriate groups in the communities of which Champion is a

Over the yeai's Champion employees have profited from the continued gro>vth of the company. More jobs at higher pay have been provided. Greater benefits in the form of insurance, pensions, vocational training, recreation programs, better and safer working conditions have resulted.
Champion customers have profited too. This year they got more paper and paper board from us than ever before. And the superior quality and variety arc a fa r cry from that of relatively few years ago.
Champion’s 67?8 stockholders, assuming the risk of a loss on their investment as weU as a gam , profited from the growth « ieir, investment made possible. Their dividends have increased substantially during the past quarter century, as has the market value of their stock.
And the people o f ^he communities, and of the states and the nation in which Champion operates, have profited from the contributions this industrial citizen has made to the common welfare.

The company’s forestry program is
directed by an outstanding group of pro
fessionally trained Champion foresters. It
involves many activities.
One important phase of the program
is the encouragement of good forestry
practices by private owners. Another is
the cooperative relationship w ith public
agencies for fii-e protection. A third is se
lective cutting to conserve, rather than
devastate, timber tracts. A fourth is ef
ficient woods operations to reduce waste
in stumpage and'top growth.
Champion trains and equips its own
employees for the job of fire prevention
and suppression. Large tracts are made
accessible to pulpwood operators and fire
fighters by construction of fire lane? and
truck trails with Champion equipment.
Upon the intelligence, skill and co
operation of Champion’s some 8,000 men
and women in its mills in Ohio, North
Carolina and Texas rests the success of its
pulp and paperm aking operations. Hun
dreds of wood lot farm ers and their fam

pulpwood to Champion.
Champion is dedicated to a continuation of its research and management prac
tices in the forest areas in which it operates
so that its people w ill be assured of a
never-ending supply of the raw m aterial
without which they could not have jobs
and so that one of Am erica’s great na

place in life, the
more he stands in need of prayer, the
prayers of others iis well as his own.
King Solomon’s reu-
tatlon f o r wisdom base on one rather
fantastic court de* cision, or on t h e
splendor of the Temple, which he did not design; stiil less on those
Icgendarj’ powers such as being able to converse with dragonflies and
demons. He was never more wise
than in his prayers.
Bream s G ive Y oh Away »l»HEY SAY that when one is learn-

W o should not take all our drcani''
too seriously, because, after all. U
is the conscious m ind that is.at Iht-

about prayinjr to Goil facc to face, you may be .sure he is real*

So the young Solomon’s dream of his interview wiUi God is a
good indication of the depth.s of
his m ind and intentions at (hat
time.It was not a silly dream ; it was
quite serious. W o m ay sveU believe that the young king often tliought
about it afterwards, and lhat God
actually took this way of speaking to Solomon.

Ask for One Thing TN t h a t dream Solomon is invited
to pray, and God guarantees to
answer the prayer, whatever it is. It is rem arkable what Solomon die;
not ask for.
Considering the fact that his
father had been such a warrior,
one m ight expect Solomon to ask for victory in war. But the young
king, even in his dreams, did not picture him self as a conquering
hero. Then again, he m ight have
been expected to w ant to be rich. He cam e of a race that rated property
very highly indeed. In the Hebrew language, the expression.'^‘a great
m an” often m eant simply a very rich one. But it was not money that
Solomon desired most of all. A third
blessing too m ight have been in
Solomon’s m ind; something that
every m an of his time looked on ac a sure sign of the blessing of Go{l:
nam ely, long life. But this too was not w hat the, young m an most
wished to have.Instead, he prayed for wis
dom . Knowledge is knowing;
wisdom is knowing how to use
w hat you know. And he wnnled
this wisdom, not in order to he
rich, powerful or long-lived, but
in order to become a gooil lead
er of his people.
One cannot help believing lhat Solomon already had in him tlic
seed of wisdom, or he would not
have offered that prayer. Only the wise know w hat a jewel wi.sdom is.
Prayer o£ a M ature M ind

" king is recorded at the dedica

B y this (im e Im idea of God Is higher than it was. He i.s

•prayer young Solomon was aware o'
his and his people’s weakness and Ignorance, now he feels somelhin'^
deeper, m ore serious: the burden of hum an sin. He prays for manv

;jy shot his m other here becaus. his father told h im to do so, he said.
His mother, he said, was lying in ;)cd. She cried when he shot her, he
said, so his father took the pistol and shot her too.
Tony M orin, a a Investigator for the Bexer county sheriff, was at
tempting to Hind out whether the boy’s story w as Uruth or fantasy.
Neither ot the parents could be found. The boy'* fother left him In
a nursery and hasn’t relum ed, although he pr<»niaed to come back
next day wltti a w e ^ ’s board.
The b (^ told M rs. Florence Fort
ney, who runs the nursing home,
that his mother and father had a
figiit. He said his father loaded a
oistol, handed It to him and told
him to shoot his mother.
The boy said he shot her. Morin
asked him today where he shot her
and he pointed to his right shest.
“M om m y was m ean to daddy and
daddy.^iold me he was going to gei me a new m onuny,” he said.
Mrs. Fortney called the sherif! after hearing the boy’s story. Thr
sheriff asked Oie Children’s Servici* Bureau to take charge of him.
Mrs. Fortney said the boy’s father
—a clean-shaven, ‘'w ell-spoken"
man' wearing cowboy boots and u
big hat—brought the boy to hi-r nursery in a taxicab.
She was going out. so she didn’t
lalK to the m an long. He said they were "from the EasV,” and he hac
been working in San Antonio, bui would be working Ini Corpus Christ; “ for a spell."
He wanted her to take care of
his son, make him m ind and touch him good m anners. He said he’d b^
back the next day with $18 to pu' a week's board, b ut never-retumeo

General Ike Cominq To A. Carolina
Honorable C . F. Stroud, Editor. The Davie Record,
M ocksviile, North Carolina.
Dear M r. Stroud:—! Iiave made every eflort to have the Eisen
hower train stop at Mocksviile on the way from Charlotte to W ins
ton-Salem, b u tl c n offer no encouragement, as the timing schedule
is extremely tijjht.
Eisenhower has certain stop.s :lria i,ia .J i.i Vireinia and must
make a major address at 8:30 p. m. in Richmond that nifiht. That
means that he must rush throuchout the trip and keep the schedule
which they have dcslRned. I am still hoping that I can get some
small stops in .North Carolina, but as vet, 1 have no assurances.
It you could see the entire itinerary for this projected tour, that
is, throughout the West iind this jaunt into the South, you would
know that Eisenhower is a bu.sy man and is really doing his part to
put over this campaicn. I hope vou w ill explain to your public and
to the Republicans of Davie County that the State organization is
doing all that it can, but please go along with us and virith the Gen-
eral in what is, of course, a troublesome'situation. We hope he can
stop, but I am afraid it w ill be almost impossible.
W ith e.erv good wish, I am
Very sincerely,
J . M. B A L E Y , Jr.
Chairman Republican State Executive Committee.
The Eisenhower train is scheduled to pass through Mocksviile a-
bout 1 liOO a. m. next Friday morning, Sept. 26th. Republicans and
Democrats can go to the depot and see the train pass, and shake thetr
fists at the said train, if it doesn’t stop. General Eisenhower is sche
duled to speak in Charlotte from 8:45 to 9:15, and in Winston-Sal-
em from 11:45 a. m. to 12:00 noon on Friday, Sept. 26dl.

T iie new benefit formula that is
now used to figure social .security
payments w ill mean higher old*
age and survivors insuranae bcne>
Bts to manage earners who arc
now filing claims.
The secial security amendments
of 1950 provided that wage earn'
ers who arc now 65 or over, and
who retire after they have worked
for at least a year and a half after
1950 in a job covercd by social sc*
curity, can take advantage of this
new formula. Benefits arc based
on the average monthly wage that
the worker earned during this
time. The new formula provides
for benefits of 55% of the first
$100 of the wage earner's average
monthly wage and \5% on all oyer
that up to the maximum of $300.
A wage earner with an average
monthly wage of $160 after 1950
would be entitled to 55^ of the
first $100, or $55, and 15% of the
remaining $60. or 9. making a to
tal monthly benefit of $64. His
wife, if she is 65, would also be
entitled to one half this amount.
For more detailed information*
inquiry should be made at the
nearest social security field office.
The field office covering this area
is located in the Nissen Building,

ROW is bu: du#;. Yi-'u ii you knw ts.417 ai4%'7>-. •Jr.ji:-ruin began j«*. afv ___er a pericc of #?•«- cial brilUanc«. I: as U the old proverb were reversed, and the brlghest h o u r came }ust b efo re the dark. Why L« this? One reason is that the glamor and the glory were not what they seemed Ot.ferm c, to be. Beneath the glittering surface of thangs. the foundations were rotting away. Glory, personal or national, is a brittle thing.
Bong! Want the Empire
VO U do not have to poke abou: in large x'olumes of history to find this out. For a small sum you can buy a book that tells the storj of the most famous nation of ai; lime,—namely, the Bible, giving the history of the nation called Israel. Israel was a remarkably short'Ilved nation. Three kings’ rcifrns spanned its whole his* tory /rom beginning to end. A lter, that, Bang! it split into two picccs, indeed into more than two. For not only did it divide into the t\vo kingdoms of the nortli and of the south, but it disintegrated everywhere.All the-, conquests of David were undone. The Empire ol Israel (for , empire it was) simply went to plece.^ : at every s6am. What had been, for a time, the greatest and 'only em* pire between the Nile and the Euphrates, fell to pleccs fearfully fast. , And all that crash occurred inmicdi- ately after the death of Solomon, that king whose reign is still rr memembered for its wealth, glamo and magnificance. How could such things be?
Glamor (or the Few
p A R T OF llie answer is thnt the ^ glory didn't spread around ver: far. There was no middle class. an<^ the gap between Solomon and Iv crowd at the top. and the peasant, on the bottom, was enormous.Solomon’s only known son, Reho- boam, told a mass-meeting of citizens shortly after Solomon’s death. ."My father beat you with whips.’* Rehoboam was not trying to blacken his father’s memory; he wcrs stating a simple fact. The common man had indeed taken a beating under Solomon.To build the king’s great pub* l|ei\rorks cost money, and need- eV:->(!ii those non-mechanical days) armies of laborers. Tl^erc was the immensely costly Temple, and thea (here was the royal palace, larger than the Temple, requiring nearly twice as long (0 build and no doubt oorrespondingiy e xp e n siv e ; there were other temples, pub* lie buildings, p o o ls, wafer works, fortifJcathss, royal stables .at Negiddo and what not. King Solomon lound It neccs* sary to work thousands of his people, without pay, one month out of every three.The fact that about nine tenth of the people were ripe for rebc' lion within months after Solomon' death, shows that, to say the lea.-;; they were not contented and happ; Nations often do die, or blov.' u - just after periods of “ prosperity.’ but it will generally be found th: - the prosperity was quite badly d'; • trlbuted. There js little true gloi- in a nation where a few grow ric. upon the poverty of the many.• • •
Ttigh Income Bracket
lUT THAT Is not the whole story Even if every one in the country were equally wealthy, it might n r bo good. Strange as it seems, th Bible is full of warnings, not s- often against poverty as agnins- wealth.The truth about Israel Is not that Solomon and his friends prospered while the rest nf the nation decayed; the fact Is. Solomon and hi« set were dreay- Ing (00, not in spite of their wealth but because of It.The king's annual income hrir. been computed at some ninetnrn million dollars of our money. Wn hear that he built templeR to other gods besides the true God. all he. cause of his wives’ influence, if he had been a poor man, he could not have married those expensive imported princesses. A man with e:c- cess income w ill often mis-spend it, ninety*nine times out of a hundred; and Solomon was not the hundredth man.• Today in A-.nerlca every dollar soent on drink, on gambling, is a surplus dollar, an uneasy doIJar, Net that you can in any way wipe out r;n by eliminating excessive wealth; l.ut you might remove a lot of lcmDtatlons.'<

At preseat candidates for th* •Vet-hccisc ministry are required tr file satUiactory answers to sever.'i* questieas. one of them being: "Will you abstain from the use of tobacer and other indulgences which may injure yoxir influence?”
According to the report, this requirement ''seems to single out onr indulgence and leaves unmenticned any number of weighter matters It raises to central importance ar. indulgence which does net merit such a place of honor.”
•Noting that many Methodists are opposed to the use of tobacco, the report declared:
“ Therefore, we are recommending that w^e hold our standards oi personal discipline as high as always, but that we place this mattei on a higher level than the legal. W« recommend that no man be requirer to sign a promise that he will not smoke.”
It added, however, that each pro spective clergyman be asked ”10 make a complete dedication of himself to the highest ideals of the Christian ministry."

More U.S. Life Insurance
Fundi Go Into Real Estate,
More than a quarter of a billion
dollars of real estate was ncquircd
as an investment by the U.S. life
insurance companies during largely as a result of the acccierated
activity in commercial and indus* trial rental properties in the latter
part of the year. A targe part of this new real* estate investment was
in facilities for defense industries.
The year's new investment totaled
$274,000,000. of which $195,000,000
was in commercial and industrial rental properties. Purchases in 1050
had been $161,000,000. Total real estate holdings at the end of 1951
were $1,617,000,000. of which $B18,« 000,000 was in cninm crcial and in
dustrial rentals. Company-used real
estate accounts for $382,000,000 of
holdings and rental housing for $352,-
000,000.
Beautiful City
B y the time Charlemagne sent the first missionary to Christianize the natives in 727, Bremen was already
prospering as a G erm an market and
trading town. Jn the centuries that
fo llo w ^, the com m unity became a great religious center — a second
Rom e to the powerful princes of the Church who ruled vast estates from
their Bremen palaces. Before the 15th century Bremen had achieved
a degree of self-government rem ark
able for the times. Its elected town
council exercised the supreme legis
lative power in .civ il and crim inal
cases. Later, m erchnnt groups
gained control of the council but individual enterprise was allowed to
flourish and the city, as a member of the Hanseatic League, became
rich and influential. Before World W ar II Bremen was considered one
of the roost beautiful of German cities. Its famous old city hall, rich
w ith aristic treasures, fronted a
m arket place lined with medieval
homes of the Hansa merchants,
guild-houses and churches. Not far from the old section the visitor
K.could see the great Descbimag ship- j.building yard—birthplace of the lux
ury liner, Bremen, and biggest pro. ducer of the Germ an U-boat.
In China when the subscrJber rings up exchange the operator m ay

Bv W . K . W hite. Mai^aeer.
Social security checks mailed
rhis month to the 334 people in
Davie County amounting to $10,'
065.00, were the last under the
old rates of pavment. Payments
due CO the same people early in
October w ill amount to about
$11,410,00.
As a result of changes made in
the social security law in Iuly»
nearly everyone receiving old-age
and survivors insurance benefits
w ill get higher payments. Most
retired workers w ill receive in
creases ranging from $5 to $8.60.
Increases for dependents and sur
vivors w ill be less chan chose for
retired workers. In most casesi
these increases w ill be about $2.00
to $5.00.
For example, a retired insured
worker whose August payment
received this month was $40, has
ed on earnings received since 1936,
w ill get a September payment of
$45; a worker who got $68.50 in
the current check w ill gee $77.10
the first week in October.
It tvilf not be necessary for per*
sons now getting old-age and sur
vivors insurance payments to call
or come to the Winston-Salem

'F ly in g High
You've heard the popular saying: “ I'm flying high,” often used to ex
press a feeling of well-being? While
that's in the nature of folklore,
nonetheless scientists have discovered that high altitudes apparently
do exert some beneficial effects on certain diseases. F or example, ex* perlments In San,Antonio, Texas, re*
portedly show that m en and mice, both, at high altitudes are less like*
ly to get pneumonia. The higher up you go, tests indicated, the higher Is
the num ber of red cells In the blood. And both m ice and men become
.more resistant to pneumonia, after
undergoing this “ reverse of anemia' process.
