And crying as they went along For mother, home and dad.

So cold and so care free. Those little orphan children went. That cold and bitter day, Into a neighbor’s lovely home W ho turned them no taway.

Patterson of the United States Army. Perhaps you may remember him wbea we explain that he is the young man who some time ago was offered a princehood, a palace and a harem o t 18 wives on a South Philippine Islaud. It seems that the Lieutenant had united the quar reling tribes on the island—and the offer of a royal post and all that goes with it was to be his reward. But the lientenant turned it all down—for a number of reasons, not the least of which was that he had a wife and voting son back home in the states. Well, Lieutenant Patterson is back in the states today—at bis mother's home in Worcester, to be exact. When his wiie greeted him with a kiss and a hug to match, the armv officer draped a Pacific Is land costome over ber and said: “On you they look good, prin cess or no princess; youlre the best wife in the world ” As for those island beauties, if they exist, the lieutenant never met.any.

Miller IsReinstatedAs Iredell Candidate Statesville. — Iredell County Board of Elections' passed unani- mouslv a resolution to reinstate the notice of candidacy of Sam Stiller for the office of sheriff, in the De mocratic primary May 2 5 . U r. Miller’s name presumably bad been taken from the ticket on the basis of his anticipated with drawal from the race. Mr.’ Miller, - however, insisted later such presumptions were er roneous and that he did not intend to withdraw. Do You Read The Record? Is There No Limit? - A letter in the Congressional Re. cord causes us to wonder if there is no Iltnit to what men will do for profit? The letter is addressed to Congressman John E. Fogarty, of Rhode Island. It was written by one of his constituents who Insists that more grain should be -made available for the manufacture of beer anil liquor. “Several retail liqnor dealers have called to our attention,” he writes, "the fact that the drastic cut in gTain has created very ser ious conditions in the mai tenance of theft business. In fact, at this writing the condition may be term ed critical, since many owners have found it necessary to lay off bar tenders, waiters and waitresses. Onr salesmen actually found 8 out of 10 outlets completely out of beer yesterday morning. “There Is no Teason ' to believe that this condition will get any better, but with the approach of warm weather it will naturally tend to become woise. lfAIl of these retailers have a big investment at stake Thelr Iiquor licenses, which help towns and cit ies to carry t aeir tox burdens, will be worthless without merchandise.

Ex-Serviceman Sends In A Communication Tbe following communication came from one .of .the boys who fought .and hisked his life on for eign soil for Old Glory:' “The Army says I can't wear my uniform after I arrive home be cause I ’ll be impersonating a soldier. ‘‘The stores say I can'buy a suit of clothes because they haven’t my size. .

Browning, domestic bn. siness chief of the Commerce De partment, believes that the present seller’s market will end' with the close of this year, and that ‘‘sell ing is going to be a tough job with some lines In 1947, most lines in 19 4 8, 'and nearly all lines in 10 4 9.” Fact is that competition is al ready ke'en In some lines, giving rise to the hope that the happy day is not far distont when tbe.custom er will be right again. Browning believes that the current tnarkat is greatly inflated becau.e consumers, dealers and wholesalers place du plicate orders with a cumbes of suppliers, and when delivery is made on one shipment orders on others will be caucelled. We recall that a similar condit ion existed following World W ar I which brought on the post-war de. pression of 1921. M ercbantsplac ed orders far beyond- their actual naeds hoping to get delivery on part of them. Eventually manu facturers caught up came a buyers’ strike and there followed a flood of cancellations. 'M ills closed every where and the resultant unemploy ment added to the deflation pres sure. There was a sharp drop In prices, followed by several years of what has been called “ profitless prosperity.” But recovery came quickly and without pump-priming, and the late twenties saw another inflation ary movement which ended witb the crash of 1929. Right now we seem caught in the whirlpool of another of these economic -cycles, and if it ends in another crash we won’t be surprised. Statesville Daily.

But today it has a great interest in income lost by industry than has the factory owner, in one way, because it takes the lion’s share of net profits, in taxes. Strikes of the past year hL-ve cost the government- a fabu lous sum. Such tax losses help make it more difficult to ease the general tax load. Therefore, we all pay more taxes than might 0 berwise be necessary. For this reason alone, govern ment should have a Vety great In terest in perfecting plans to curb strike losses for'the benefit of it- self, the workers and tLe consum ers—thelatter two being the source of all iocome to .government.•*—Ex. Opportunity Kaock6 James Horn Active Ma- . son For Many Years J. E. Horn, 83, chaplain of Ca tawba Lodge No. 248, A. F. and A. M., at Newton, is one of the oldest Masons in Nordi Carolina, and certainly there is not an older coach In the entire state. Mr. Horn became a Mason in Davie County in 1896 and has been coaching candidates for de grees since that time. The aged chaplain regrets that he has been unable to claim his 50-year Ma son’s status, however, because he had to drop out of active mem bership for a year* or so in the ’twenties. The Newton Lodge Chaplain is known to Masons all oyer North Carolina because he has coached candidates from numerous lodges. The number would go far into the hundreds, but Mr. Horn has kept noMcords to show just how many. Mr. Horn worked- throughout his active life as a plumber and tinsmith, and still putters about in the shop, but it seems of late his interest centers almost entire ly around Masonic activities. His Masonic doings, however, are not the sole extent of Brother Horn’s interesting qualities. He is a great student of the Bible and has records to show that he . has read die Bible through 22 times since 1930, and the New Testa ment 25 times. At a recent Masonic meeting here, when the note on the Tem ple was burned in a public cere mony, Mr. Horn was preseuted a Masonic Bible by the Lodge.- The State. Mr. Horn is a native of Davie County, a brother of John Horn, of Smith'Grove. He left this coun ty nearly a half century ago, mov ing to Newton. Mr. Horn never misses a Masonic picnic, which is held in Mocksville. every August. Thesepicnicshavebeen held in Davie for nearly 70 years, and we believe Mr. Hom told us last year that he had only missed one pic nic sinee they were instituted way back in the 'seventies. The Ma sonic picnic wouldn’t be a picnic if “Jim” Horn wasn't here. The Record is hoping that his life will be started to attend many more Masonic picnics.

Woman^s World Boost Blouse Supply By Making New Ones from Old Dresses ^ (C rtta J 4a(et6 !1^ O WOMAN ever has enough * blouses, the most economical Itan In the wardrobe. If you have • skirt with a choice of two, three or even four blouses, you can al ways be sure of going about well dressed without giving the impres sion that you axe always wearing the same clothes or operating on a limited wardrobe. Most blouses require two yards or !less of material, and they may be made from all sorts of material. In fact, the sky is the limit as far as fabrics for blouses are con cerned. Many a woman with out moded dresses or evening gowns can put together several blouses and give the impression of a brand new wardrobe. Taffeta evening gowns make par ticularly attractive blouses. Since taffeta blouses are now popular, those outmoded gowns should now be taken out, overhauled, cut and made into something as usable and pretty as a blouse to give you an alternate for that new spring suit. Any style may be chosen for taf feta blouses are seen in draped and tailored styles. They are cool and feel well under a wool suit. They are dressy enough even when you remove the jacket to your suit. Fitting is as important in a blouse as in a well-tailored suit. Take a lock at some of the handsome, ex pensive blouses in the stores and you will see what I mean. Notice that there 'are at least four tucks at the waist of the blouse, two on each side in both back and in front. In some styles you will find even more tucks to give that "nipped" at the waist look, and prevent too muck fullness under the skirt. Details are Important In Making Blouse Another important, detail which wa are beginning to see more often In blouses is the deep dart right underneath the arm. This is used to get away from the flat-looking bust I/ you h a v e a t a f f e t a e v e n i n g g o w n . . . and to give more attractive, fitted lines to the garment. Even if the pattern which you happen to be us ing does not show these darts, fit (hem into the garment after the shoulder seams are sewed and you are ready to fit these side seams. Thm baste them in, press, and try co. You wiU see how much they do tor the figure. Darts are used plentifully on the blouse, as are gathers. In making the blouse, gather at the shoulders first, using very tiny stitches so that the gathering will be even. M the blouse has a yoke and an action back, make sure that the blouse is gathered, as at the shoulders, and basted carefully in place before sew ing. Another detail which is impor tant in the blouse is the shoulders. A tiny basting stitch is run around the upper part of the sleeve, and tills is used for making the small gathers which enable you to ease in M a k e a e r i t p b l o u s e . the sleeve when you are ready to stitch it into place on the blouse. Most of the fullness is allowed on the top of the shoulders and the back. Make sure that no gathers are al lowed underneath the arm, as this nail makq the blouse uncomfortable Io wear. Many types of shoulder pads are now available which will'also aid in B l a c k W o o l C r e p e A smart black wool crepe dress with a matching hood is' modeled by Martha Vickers, now appearing in Wamer Brothers* “The Big Sleep.” The hand-crocheted pep- Ium is of black chenille. - giving good lines to the blouse. The more !expensive pads seem to ; cup the shoulder father than pad it, and they are not so weighty as the stuffed ones. They may be used in several blouses. Another type of pad now being made is attached to a net vest This is designed to be worn underneath the blouse, ahd of course, it elimi nates sewing pads in each blouse. Still another solution to the pad problem is to use the taffeta itself. The pads, which need not be stuffed, since the material is stiff, will also match the blouse perfectly. If you are fond of cuffs on the blouse, taffeta makes beautiful pleated cuffs. The pleats should be placed evenly and pressed and basted in place before sewing. Pay particular attention to the line or print, bf the material. Piping may also be used if you are fortunate in finding some that matches or con trasts perfectly with the material you have on hand. If you are making long sleeves on the blouse, you wiU want at least two darts at the elbow to allow for freedom of movement. Sometimes patterns will call for only one dart, but it has been found best to make two small rather than one deep dart. The finished garment will also look much better. It is always wise in malting darts of this type to come to a sharp point You can best guide your sew ing if you will baste first. Always tie the threads on the inside—and do tie them firmly so>that the dart does not come open later. It’s much easier to sew them right the first time than to try to repair them later when they are sewed on the gar ment and you no longer have a flat working surface. Home SewiBg HlBts Just a word about patterns for those of you who do a lot of home sewing. If the tape meas ure around the bust reads 42, please buy a pattern in that size, not in a 38. The size of the indi vidual is much better concealed in a correctly fitted garment, than one which is too small. If the pattern must be altered, it is much easier to alter one that is too large simply by tak ing tucks in the pattern. If too small, the pattern must be slit, and this is much more difficult to do than taking in tucks. Avoid over-sewing if you want the garment to look nice. Use the type-of finished edge most suitable to your material and make this ,as neat as possible. ' Good table space, good light and a place for the ironing board are among the essentials need ed for home sewing. If it is not possible to have' a sewing room, have all these items conveniently on hand \ when you do sew. [Spring Fashion N otes Gray is a most popular color'for summer wear. Gray chambray trimmed with white eyelet is ’ex ceedingly popular. Delightful , cotton eyelet is per fect for -cool, short, street-length dresses. These can be dressy and , sophisticated and-need not look as though they were borrowed from daughter,____ Scarf prints are worked into the bodice or scarf treatments in in genious Ways that bespeak a decid ed play of imagination.

My son was killed In action April I, 1943, in the Nortii African area. In November, 1942, he was shipped from New York across, and he did not get his pay from the government for three months and he could not keep up his insurance policy, so it was dropped.

Eighty per cent extraction means that instead of the 72 per cent and 28 pounds of animal feed that the miller has been getting from every 100 pounds of wheat he will now get 80 pounds of wheat to be used as flour and 20 pounds as animal feed. The new flour is slightly gray in color instead of the creamy white which we are accustomed to seeing. The color is due partially to the parts of the wheat kernel which nat urally contains some color or pig ment. . Emergency flour is considerably better than what we first had. antici pated. To date, In tests which have been made in actual home baking, the flour has behaved satisfactorily. In biscuits and breads, the color of th e. finished product has, a slight grayish cast, but in other baked products such as muffins, cookies and cakes, the use of eggs tends to push the gray into the background. As for pie crust, you’ll find that the new flour gives pastry a much bet ter color than the flour we formerly used. It seems that in pastry, the crust comes out a more golden color than before. Hew to Use. You will be seeing new recipes In this column from time to time giv ing you tips onhow to use the emer gency flour. However, if you want to convert your old recipes,-a safe rule to follow is to take 2 table spoons out of each I cup of flour that the recipe requires. In using the emergency flour with baking powder, soda or sour milk, Lynn Says: ' Ctaserve Fats and Oils: Bet ter use can be made of drip pings — those tets that cook out of roasts, bacon and sausage. While the tets are still liquid, strain them through cheese cloth and store them in a cool place. They are especially good for seasoning vegetables; they may be ' used for gravies and sauces and even some baking, in highly spiced cookies and cakes. Serve fewer fried foods to save on fat. If you do fry, use the Shallow fat method or the oven. Save the tets and oils which have been used for frying and re-, iiser them whenever possible. Otherwise, give the fats to your butcher. . Bender the excess fat on meats sbd use it either at home or turn it into the fat salvage. Dried bread crumbs can be used for puddings such as apple or peach betty, for dipping meats and fish,.or other foods that are baked or fried. H you have dried'cake, crumb it and use tor a cake crumb crust for pie. Mix the crumbs with a little, melted butter and sugar and' press m to. a pie plate.' Now that you’ve been asked to save wheat, do the following things to Save on bread: Serve creamed.meat on top of mashed potatoes instead of toast or Msciuty. For lunch; serve open-faced sandwiches instead of the dosed’ variety. , Top. meat casseroles with crum bled ■ potato chips; use mashed; potatoes, or com meal mush for topping meat and vege table casseroles. Lynn Chambers’ Menus Tuna Fish Au Gratin Boiled Potatoes Brussels Sprouts Banana-Apricot Salad Custard or Rice Pudding Butterscotch Sauce ByeBread Beverage it seems advisa ble to use a min imum amount of stirring and mix ing after the flour has been added. The rule, which you have known so long, “Mix only until flour is moistened,’’ as far as quick breads are concerned applies particularly to this new flour. In making yeast-leavened prod ucts, handle the batters and doughs lightly, .especially after the first ris ing. Anotiier must is to let the prod uct rise not so much, so start work ing on it just before it doubles itself. Texture in Cakes. For the emergency, you’ll have to forego your elaborate, velvety textured cakes. Simple cakes—the two egg type—are quite acceptable made with the new flour; but the texture is' not as soft, and fine as you are accustomed to. You see, the flour is just not as soft and fine as the bleached flours which we rec ommend for really fine cakes. In ad dition to the simple white or gold cakes, you may also use the flour for devil’s food or chocolate cakes and spice cakes. Thickening Qualities. For all practical purposes, the new flour has the same thickening quality as regu lar ail - purpose flour. Use it the same way as you would our .regu lar flour in thick ening g ravies, Sauces, stews, pie and cake fill ings. Another point which it is well to remember in regard to the new flour is that it will not keep as well as regular flour. Don’t stock up on it! Buy limited quantities, but buy them more often. The same storage that we , give regular flour is doubly important in this case. A covered container is recommended, and it’s best to keep this in a cool, d ry place. Food Value. Some people have said that the emergency flour is a fine thing be cause it has more “good in it.” Well, of course, the bran in the flour is Pie crust made from the new flour browns more readily even though you will need a few drops more of ice water to make it hold together. nourishing because it'gives us’more thiamin, niacin, riboflavin and iron than regular flour. Itgives usonly about half as much as enriched white, flour, however* Gold Cake. 2 cups emergency wheat flour 3 teaspoons baking powder lteaspoonsait H cup shortening 1 cup sugar 2 eggs % cup milk 1 teaspoon vanilla Sift together dry ingredients.

WASHINGTON. — Inside reason why the Russians are pulling wires to have the capital of the United Nations moved back’ to sleepy Geneva is that American public opinion has been too powerful a champion of the smaller nations. So the Russians have been work ing behind the scenes to corral votes in favor of the Geneva trans fer and can count on Yugoslavia, Czechoslovakia, Poland and France. However, they can’t count on the British, who once'favored a Euro pean capital, but are now 100 per cent sold that American opinion is one of their best allies. The Russians also can't count on the Latin Americans. In the old days, Pan - American diplomats loved lolling in Paris most of the time and turning up in Geneva a few days of the week. Today, how ever, Paris is one of the most uncomfortable places in the world, Geneva is short of food, and New {York is far-more pleasurable. The Russians, who originally favored an American city as the V. N. capital, now consider this a serious mistake. They dislike Die fact that American newspa pers publish columns and coir umns of front-page news on ev ery move made by the Rus sians and they figure that American newsmen. at Geneva would sit drowsily in the Swiss ' ,cafes drinking beer, or spend ■ week-ends in the Swiss Alps. In Europe, they also believe, no photographer or newspaper would have the energy to trail Ambassa dor Gromyko on his famous and circuitous trip around New York City when he almost stopped in at the Security Council meeting, but didn’t. If the Iranian question had been discussed at Geneva, instead of New York, the Russians figure, it never would have attracted so much attention and the Soviet would have come o3 with a complete vic tory.• • • NO ARMY RACE PREJUDICE A Negro, former master sergeant in the army, Marion F. Green, tes tified before General Doolittle’s “caste system’’ board the other day, that there was little evidence of racial prejudices and discrimi nation in tiie army. When General Doolittle inquired about this, Ser geant Green replied: "Colored soldiers found some resentment against them when they first joined the army, bnt this was quickly ironed out aft er a few months of training. In February, 1911, we had some fights and riots while I was sta tioned at Camp Livingstone, Lousiana. However, by the time we finished training, everybody was getting along fine. I en countered no racial bias what; ever overseas." The ex-G.I. also suggested that saluting of officers be optional when enlisted men are off duty and off the post, to which Lt. Gen. Troy Middleton, now an executive of Lou isiana State university, countered: “Wouldn’t optional saluting such as you propose tend to tear down dis cipline?’’ “Not necessarily, general,’’ re plied Green. If a man does some thing to merit respect, he will get that respect whether.he is a civilian or an army officer.” * * * POWER AND NYLON LOBBIES Many congressmen ' will vote against dynamic Speaker Sam Ray burn in a secret committee session, but don’t have the nerve to stand up and oppose him on the floor of the house. Very soon, however, Democrats who have IaUen tor the beguiling promises of the giant pow er lobby are going to face the latter test. Sam Rayburn really has fire in his eye when.he talks about the power lobby. And today that lobby ranks with the real estate buttonhoiers as one of the most potent on Capitol Hill, has even gone to the extent of dangling nylons before the wives of con gressmen in order to win votes - against the government’s south west power authority in -Texas, Oklahoma, Arkansas and south ern Missouri. The question at issue is whether the government can. construct its own electric lines to distribute elec tric power from the Denison dam on the Texas-Oklahoma border and _ the Norfolk, Ark., dam. Without such power lines, the gvemment merely generates the power but can’t sell it. The power lobby wants to prevent this sale.- So far, the pbwer. lobby’s tech nique has been sneeessfol with the appropriations Subcommit tee, which knifed the construc tion of the distributing lines. Cong. Ben Jensen of Iowa, Henry Dworshak of Idaho, Rob ert Jones of Ohio, and W. F. Norrell of Arkansas were the gentlemen reported to have fall en for the wiles of the lobby. However, when the bill comes out on the floor of congress, Sam Ray- j-^burn, together with the dean of -ingress, Adolph Sabath of Illinois, *0 stage a real battle, “ALABAM” PRESENTED TO TRUMAN . . .

President Truman has decided to build a horseshoe pitching court oil the White House grounds.: This shotdd make America feel, better. Much of the trouble that the world is in today is due to the fact-few, if any, rulers have been horseshoe pitchers. — * . ' ■ There' is something about .horse shoe pitching that keeps a man cool, eases his nerves and lessens the chances of-his doing anything cock eyed. We had a few horseshoe pitch, era among our1- earliest Presidents, and their administrators were the most peaceful in history..... . m Perhaps in these troubled times of irascibility, frenzied disputes, hair - trigger decisions, impa tience, with the other fellow’s view point and .the itch to settle every thing overnight, horseshoe pitching may save civilization!• Had Adolf Hitier ever gone In for pitching horseshoes the yen to con quer the world would never have developed. In your wildest dreams can you picture Mussoliid fooling around with a horseshoe?» On with the horseshoe stuff, Harry! You’re no genius in states manship. You are not the wisest ruler of the day. But nevertheless when the atomic bomb crisis agitates the great men of the earth, when potentates'on all sides are shout ing at one another and when so many big men have so many hot ideas tor causing trouble, it will be good to know that you spend a little time each day out behind the-White House pitching horseshoes. * • * C ircus M em ories The circus is back in New York, and thousands of big city kids will be thrilled no end.

It was always unloaded in the freight yards down at Long Wharf off Water street, and what a thrill it was to hear the locomotive whistles and then see the circus trains pull in, unload and start on the five-mile trek to the circus grounds, which used to he in Elm City park back of the Hubinger mansion. After the unloading had pro gressed an hour or so, we hustled to the grounds to seejthe tents go up. . . .

Hornsby conflict w hen it comes to the matter of attendance and the actual amount of gold or its equivalent taken in at the turn stiles.This 1946 season will make all other past years look like the tag end of a depression so far as crowds and cash are concerned. The recent basketball season flattened all past attendance records. We have had over 50,000 people clam oring to pay $20 a seat for a non title fight, meaning Graziano and Servo, California and Florida race tracks have left the past far behind in this same respect. Two Alabama foot-, ball squads, made up from Ala-; bama players, recently fought it out before 25,000 spectators in Birming- . ham. Racing at Jamaica has al-; ready taken long leaps beyond last year’s earlier marks. The super-brilliant stars who fol lowed the last world war may be missing, but there are still enough1 good ones to keep the human mass rolling in the' general direction of; the next show, whatever game it might happen to be. : Only Warming Vp I But these matters are only in the warm-up division. The real harvest from the golden crop is still on beyond us. ' t Baseball expects ' to shatter all ; past crowd records by a wide m ar-’ gin. The Yankees hope to-play be-; fore something approximating two million at hoirie. The Dodjfers would, be right alongside if there was only, enough parking room for the human frame. The Giants won’t be far away if their ball club holds up. j- The 450 million dollar bet at New, York tracks last season is likely to reach or pass 550 million dollars this year. We-have seen crowded Derby and Preakness years before, but nothing to what this next May. will offer in these two better than 100 thousand dollar tests. The Yankee stadium hasn’t the . attend ance space to equal the crowds that saw the two Tunney - Dempsey shows, but the Louis-Conh meeting will outdraw both financially in the way of extra, carloads of cash. They are already talking about Grazi- ano being involved in a million dol lar gate and the rock-fisted entry hasn’t even a title. The United States Golf associ ation is dead sure that the open at Canterbury, Cleveland, in June and- the amateur at Baltusrol in September, will run up far higher figures than either has ever drawn in the past. The crowds who want to "see a contest have already far outgrown the limited spaces through spring and summer and fall. On a resent tour of the southeast we were often asked how long the money would hold out. Apparently it is going to hold out for at least another year. No one can say yet In just what fighting shape either Louis or Conn will be, but the rush to contribute at least three million dollars is still; under way with the contest coming late in June. Apparently it isn’t the entry list but the game that is drawing them OUtl As for as one can see neither the Derby nor the Preakness nor the Belmont 'has any Count Fleet or any Whirlaway or Alsab run ning. No outEtanffing star has yet shown for these events, but this won’t affect the size of the populace on hand. Baseball comes nearer approach ing the first golden age in playing class. Fov baseball still has the Car dinals, DiMaggio, Ted Williams, Bob Feller and; many others with a high standard of excellence, Includ ing Newhouser and Wakefield of the Tigers. ' Some one recently asked how large the crowds would be if Ruth, Dempsey,. Joiies,' Tilden, Hornsby, were back in their prime: The answer is they couldn’t be any larger for, the simple reason there isn’t any more room. Today they’ll- rush to see anything at ,any price. Apparently everything is worth $50 —except $50. , . GeniusinSports What is , this "know-how," this genius or instinct for superlative play in pport? Ty Cobb’s father was a Georgia judge who had no particu lar interest in any game. Ty Cobb’s children had no interest in baseball. Yet Bill Tilden once told me that young T y Cobb might have been a tennis champion. Old man DiMaggio never had the slightest idea of what baseball meant. Yet he produced Joe, Dom and Vince DiMaggio.

Adjournment of Congress Will Give Breathing Spell WITH the Easter recess out of the way, as things are shap ing up now, congress may adjourn about August I to give its members a chance to build. their political fences for the November elections. AU representatives and a third of the senators must face the voters this fall. It may be a good thing, for with congress in recess until after the first of the year, the nation can get down to work for real production without the disturbing influences of proposed legislation in the imme diate offing. Furthermore, everything congress has tackled this year has been ap proached from the political angle. The members have been loath to take a stand on any controversial subject which might change a vote one way or- another. As a re sult, the administration program has been hamstrung . . . continu ation of social reforms has been de layed and domestic legislation has been pigeonholed, made innocuous or just held in committees without action. Between now and August I impor tant things may be expected to hap pen. President Truman’s popularity, at bottom as he finished his first year in office, will be on the up grade from now on. Increased production of consumer goods, hold ing the line on inflation, relax ing of price controls from time to time as scarcity of goods eases, con tinued heavy demand for farm prod ucts at good prices, and a generally satisfying foreign policy, all will tend to make for greater good feel ing toward the President. The low point was reached during the senate hearing on the Patdey nomination. Little Drattie Legislation Congress will extend the draft with curtailments on age limits, no fath ers, increased pay and shorter serv ice; the veterans housing bill may become law, with some subsidy in cluded, and price ceilings on new homes, probably not on existing homes; the President’s peacetime military training bill My will not be enacted this year. There is every likelihood, despite the President’s demand and his castigation of navy lobbying, that the army-navy merg er will not be voted, at least until after congress reconvenes. In spite of opposition of the farm organiza tions, food subsidies may be ex tended until January 1st; OPA will be continued but with great trim ming of its power. The Pace bill making farm labor a part of the parity price likely will not get through the senate although it' has been passed twice by the house. The minimum wage bill, meaningless in its present form with the Russell parity amendment, will be vetoed, as announced by the President. Another fair employment practices bill, beaten in the senate by a southern filibuster, likely will come op In the house but will not get far. 'Amend ments to the social security laws may not .be considered and neither will v a r io u s health measures, such as a compul sory tax for doctors and hospital bills. There may he some addi- .. tional appropriations for public health and hospitals in federal grants to be matched by (he . states. The fifty million dollar school lunch bill passed Iby the. house likely will be npped in the senate to provide more money, up to a hundred million. The power lobby has effective!} bottled up the various regional au thority bills for the Idissouri valley, the Columbia river valley and oth ers, and in all probability there will, be no vote on any of these meas ures this year.Will Approve British Loan Our guess is that the British loan will be given congressional approv al after some of the opposition con gressmen get their spleen on the question out of their systems. And there’s another important measure, one 'which'.the President has several times pointed to, and that’s the m atter of Premdential succession. President Truman is planning a trip to the Philippines on July -4 . . . he is planning other forays about the country, but he ap pears to be a healthy individual, so the congress will probably let action on this legislation slide also, in spite of the uncertainty which' now exists over legal succession to the Presidency. I There is a rash of labor reform bills and some in mild form stand isome chance of passage. But most !assuredly there will be no drastic ^anti-labor legislation before the elec tions in November. That would_ in deed be fool-hardy from a political standpoint.. ; In &e meantime there are rumors !around Washington that See. Clin- |ton Anderson will resign his job as head of USDA.

And, if he stayed there long enough, he would—die. It was a scheme so simple and so hideous that it ap pealed at once to his ferocious pas sion for revenge. It would be easy, too, if only he could get Stenhart by himself; with all his wily, skill in shielding himself at the expense of others, all his bravado, Stenhart was, at heart, a coward. Ah, how well Sherwin knew that! How the' shifty eye had cringed away from his cousin’s when he took the oath in court and—lied. Lied a young man into prison for life-;for what? So that there might be no one to dis pute that will, the will that the old uncle meant to change in Sherwin’s favor. To secure himself in that he had sworn to a lie. He stood in the full glory of the morning. The far off heights were shorn of their shadows and melted like peaks' of gold into the golden sky. By contrast the nearer hills were darkly wooded, glancing with lights and shadows, and far up an eagle soared. Something new and mighty swept into his soul; he seemed to hear the voices of. .the wilderness crying to him: "Ven geance-is Mine!” For a single in stant his very soul was shaken, then he turned .and walked to the far edge of tile little clearing. There, through a window in the foliage, he glimpsed the lower road, running like ‘a white ribbon far beyond the ravine. As he glanced down at it he saw a man riding slowly across his vista and he gasped for breath. The uplifted moment plunged deep down into the chasm of his hate—it was Stenhart! He did not question why he came thus. Instinctively he' knew that the man was on an errand of be trayal, but his own heart leaped fiercely; he had seen him first, he was alone. Holding the rope' upon his arm, he felt for the pistol in his shoulder-holster; knew it to be loaded and ready. WfUi a kind of savage joy he turned and began to descend the dangerous path on the ledge of the ravine, and its very danger thrilled him. How easy to thrust a man over here—in a strug gle! He glanced down at the boil ing water far below 'and smiled grimly; either way, his weapons were ready to his hand. He did not walk fast, he took time to order his thoughts; the man should have his chance, a chance he had never given him, to fight for his life. Sherwin scorned to stab in .tile dark as the other did, to kill with lies! Imprisonment for life— and he was so young then! He thought of the cavern, its gloom, its dripping walls, and he laid a caress ing hand on the coil of rope upon his arm. Tom with the evil forces of his passions, sure that revenge was near, he turned the corner of the ledge and saw a figure coming toward him. Not Stenhart so soon! No, a slighter, younger figure, a white face, clear eyes—Jane! Jane, looking at his hardened face, his grinn^lips, wavered. Her courage—which had been high— went down in sheer terror of him; he hated her—suddenly she felt it. Then, having eome so far, she would not be utterly dismayed. She came on weakly, catching at the trailing limbs of nearby trees. "I guessed where Mac had tak en you. I’ve come to—ask you one question,” she faltered, “I-t” She could not go on and he would not help. her. He stood there look ing at her and’she saw only his inexorable eyes. At last she could not endure' them; she lifted her shaking hands and hid her face. “I cam e'to a s k you to—” Her voice broke and then rose almost to a cry of pain—“to tell me that It isn’t true!” “To ,what purfeose?" he asked hoarsely. "You don’t believe me. Ask Stenhart; I know, you see, that he’s, with you!” "With me?” She lifted her flushed face and looked at him, amazed. uWhat can. you'mean? T m alone.” ' Sherwin could not doubt her hon esty; she did not know that she Was followed. "He’s behind you,” he said grave ly; "he dismounted on the lower road. I saw him Just now.” - She gasped,'casting a frightened look over her shoulder. ‘I never thought he could ride so far. He’ll—” she shivered—"he’ll betray you!” Sherwin laughed discordantly. “It wouldn’t be new; he began that long ago—with a lie!” s . She caught at that, trembling. "It was.a.lie?- Please tell me that, tell pie the truth—I want to believe itl” "So you can convince him?” Sher- win mocked her. "He isn’t here, I tell you; I came alone!” the girl cried excitedly. "You came alone? Then come here.and I’U show you the horse he rode.” Sherwin turned as he spoke, walking . back toward that vista through the trees. The. girl, half dazed by his man ner, unbelieving that it' could be true that Stenhart was With her, fol lowed him. They turned the shoul der of the cliff and saw'the onedear vista of the Ioww road, seen , over the cedar that thrust itself Out be low them. “There’s the horse,” said Sher- win, "and there he is! You see? He followed yota, he’s going back now. —he knows where I am.” “Oh!” Jane gave a little cry of horror. "He—oh, I can’t think he’ll teU the sheriff!” - “Can’t you?" Sherwin’s tone was bitter. “You led him here.” The girl recoiled at that, not with the horror she had recoiled before, Gently, almost reverently, he took her in bis arms. \ but with a flush of pride. Her blue eyes shone. , "I did not lead him here," she said coldly, and turned away. She was in a tumult; how dared he accuse her of treachery? She started rapidly, retracing her steps. “Jane!” She would not turn; she stumbled on. But he overtook her. “Speak to me,” he said brokenly. “Forgive me—I thought I was strong, but I’m weak; Tm a beggar for a word of kindness. You came here—teU me, Jane, you knew it wasn’t true of.me?” She stood still, looking down, pale and shaken. “You wouldn’t answer me. Tell me that you're innocent—” she lifted her eyes to his—"tell me and—I’ll'believe you!” He looked at her strangely, and he was stiH iron in his will to kill the perjurer. " “I am innocent of. that crime,” he said. She leaned back against the. cliff behind her, panting, her face flushed and her lips trembled. “Do you believe me, Jane?” he asked hoarsely. “Had I been guilty of that—I woidd never have told you that I'loved you.” ShelIooked up and their eyes held each other. “I believe you, John,’’ she said simply. For one long moment they looked at each other thus and a strange change swept over the man. Hefelt it without knowing it, without recog nizing this hidden thing that took possession of him; but suddenly the -world seemed flooded with light and in it he saw only the face . of the girl. Gently, almost reverently, he took her in his arms. Jim Keller, ready for breakfast, found no one about. He shouted to Ah Ling. "Cet me some coffee! I wonder where in' mischief Jane is?” he add ed to himself, testQyi Wien his mind went back to yesterday and he re membered her face; she had said little, but he knew her well. “Con found it,” he thought soberly, “she’s got a . fancy for that fellqwl My fault, too; I’d no business to have a stranger about, a man without cre dentials.” \ He drank his coffee hastily and ate little, Fanny Sewell had spoken the day before of going away. Sten hart, she said, was Well. Jim did not mean to let her go, but she was hesitating; he wanted her to marry him but she Wanted to 'Work two more years. “Ridiculous idea!” Jim growled;. "I need yoii more than these sick people!” She had not yet appeared and it ..angered him to feel that perhaps she did not Want a tete-a-tete just how. He rose' from the'table, thrusting his hands into his pockets, and m iked to anid' fro in the hall. He began to bem ore and more puzzled by his sister’s ab sence. "She went on horseback—long while ago,” Teresa told him. Jim thought of the rustlers. “Where’s Mac?”. He shot , the question at Jose, who had come in from the stables with a message. “Gone down to th’ corrals, Meester Keller.” “Did you see Miss Jmiei go?" “Si, senor.” . “You saddled for her, I suppose. Hadn’t you sense enough to tell Mac? Jordan’s somewhere about!” “Meester Stenhar’ go after her." Jim stared. That Stenhart was- able to ride at all .surprised him, but it was a relief to have him with Jane. Lately, Jim had felt that the girl was playing fast and loose with his friend. She would never marry Max, he thought. But this news was reassuring; if Jane—a daredevil rid er—would slow her pace to suit a half sick man, she must be glad of his company. Jim walked out on the bridge; they might be coming home by now. The sunshine was wonderful, it dazzled him for a mo ment; then he saw Sterfiart coming across the bridge, urging his .horse. He was alone! Jim went half way down the slope to meet him. “Hello, Ma*»” he shouted anx iously, “where’s jane?” ' Stenhart made no reply, he.swung himself down from the saddle, look ing haggard. “Come into the house,!’ he said thickly; “too many men about out here!” Jim whitened; he had a strange foreboding. Without a word he turned with Stenhart toward the house, and once he had to steady the man on his feet, he was so exhaust ed. They entered the dim old hall and Stenhart flung himself into a chair, gasping. Jim stood in front of him with a settface. "For God’s sake, speak out Max!" he exclaimed. “What’s up? Where’s my si^er?” Stenhart, getting his breath, an swered with cold fury. “She’s up the mountainside with Sherwin.’’ Jim drew a hard breath. He was furious, but he controlled himself, sat down on the edge of his desk and looked attentively at Stenhart. It occurred to him that the man might be in a fever from undue exertion and not responsible. “Will you kindly explain your self?” he said gravely; "you’re speaking of my sifter." ‘T m telling you nothing but the truth,” Stenhart replied stubbornly. "She and I had a quarrel ttys morn ing. She left me to go out on horse*, back. I foUowed—I had it in mind to overtake her, to try to make it up—you understand?” he stopped, biting his lips, and Jim made ail impatient gesture of assent. "Gd on!” he exclaimed. Stenhart did not look at him.: He stared at the bright rectangle of the open door and his fingers drummed on the arms of his chair. "She was a long way ahead, rid ing fast. I foUowed; she didn’t know it. Presently she turned into a' mountain trail and dismounted; I could see her through the frees. I got down off my horse and followed; I thought to overtake her on. foot more easily. The trail is difficult. It ascends sharply; I found it hard climbing and she got far ahead, Half way up I heard voices and stood still—I wasn't an intentional eavesdropper.” He drew a hard breath.. "I saw them—Sherwin had met her!!’- Jim stiffened. flYou mean that my sister, going out alone, as she often does, chanced to meet this— this convict?” ■ : Stenhart lifted a gray face; there was no doubt now of the misery in his eyes. "She loves him, Jim !” Jim struck his open hand on the desk. “That’s an intolerable thing for even an old friend to say, Max!” Max met his eyes steadily. "It’s the truth, Jim!” And then he add ed chokingly: "I knowt" The sheer passion of that cry, its defeat, its bitterness, carried con viction. For an instant Jim, usu ally so even tempered, stared at him; then he swore softly and seized the telephone-receiver. Stenhart snatched "‘at his arm. “ What are you going: to do?” ' Jim shook him off. “Get the sher iff after him; I know about where Cutler is^-Hello! Yes?”, he began to talk into the receiver.' . . . Stenhart, who felt really 1U, turned and poured a-glass of water. ‘He bad drained it when Jim finishedfplftphnmnff. ... “Cutler left Manning’s two hours ago, headed this way; he’ll be here so o n .I—Max, what are you going to do?” Stenhart was at the door; Jim saw that he walked stiffly. "Come backl” - he exclaimed, “you’re iU.” But Stenhart was climbing into the saddle again; as he mounted he turned a white face toward Jim. -“I’m going to meet the sheriff; he doesn’t get away this time!” “Max—I say!” Jim wanted to di rect this thing himself. Even in his r a g e he remembered Siervin sav ing him that first night; but Sten hart was off at a gallop, swaying in the saddle. , As his rage cooled he thought ot Jane; he must get her before the posse arrived. He heard Stenhart’f horse gaUop across the bridge. CUO BK CONTINUED). . . . . . . . . im p r o v e d UNIFORM INTERNATIONAL SUNDAyl cH ooL k esson By HAROLD L. LtTNDQUIST.

Men have discovered in recent years, that we do live in one world and .that we must learn how -to get along with one another, or we may find that we have de stroyed civilization and one another. God has always taught in his Word that all men are of one origin, and that despite their differences, they are to Iiye in unity end peace. That would have been blessedly true'if men had obeyed God and his law. Sin brought division' aqd confusion. Now in otir day, when we should be far on' the way to the attain ment of God’s purpose, we find men more inclined than ever to be sus picious of one another, grasping in their desires and purposes, and evil in many of their ways. We have, not yet learned, to live together as nations. Let us set our selves to the task of living together. -1. A Method for Dealing with Dif ferences (Matt. 18:15-17). This is the God-prescribed meth od for dealing with personal prob lems in-the Christian church. That body in which love should reign is often rent by jealousies and person al resentments. If permitted to run on unchecked, they, create division and even-strife before the world, with all the disgrace it brings on the cause of Christ. Such matters are to be dealt with promptly. The aggrieved one is not to wait for the sinner to make the approach, but is to go to Iiim and place before him the evidence of his guilt. Done in kindness and with tact,- this is frequently all that needs to be done. A man may' thus win his brother, with no further ado or fuss in the church. ■ If he proves. stubborn, .the next step is to bring some brethren along and talk it over again. Hiis evi dence of their, concern may. break the stubbornness, or their prayers may win him. And if it does not .work, the things said and done will have been witnessed by brethren who can faithfully report them to the church. The final step is to bring the err ing brother before the church. Now he may see the-seriousness, of his offense and repent. If not, there.is one plain duty; he is to be put,out> side of the fellowship of the church. Does that jneah that he is aban doned and forgotten?. Certainly not He is to be “ as a heathen man and a publican.” Does the church have any interest in such indi viduals? Indeed it does, for the pri mary business of the church is to win both heathen and publican to fellowship .with Christ. H. A Measiire for D eteadiU ag Forgiveness (M att 18:21, 22).' Peter’s'quesfionw as a practical one. He » supposed the.case of one who sinned repeatedly against'ione who had shown a forgiving. spirit Most of ;us need.not suppose such cases; we have them before us. We forgive and are ready-to let it all bel forgotten, when lo, the of fender turns :’ up ' with an even greater wrong, indignity or sfel Then- there /is weepingand appar ent: repentance, followed almost at once by !another offense. - How long is this business -to go oh? The.JeWs said, “Three times, then let judgment fell." Peter, being a follower of Christ went much farther. He would forgive sev en times. Well, that’s a lot of for giveness; let us recognize th at Most of us haven’t even gone as far as the Jews, and Peter is way ahead of us. . '. But it is not enough! Forgiveness which has any limit set on it is not forgiveness at alL The very genius of forgiveness demands that . we. do not stand there with. a.measuring line or an account book. It must be from the heart without limit and without restraint m . -A Means for Attaining Gxea^ ness (Mark 10:35-45)v , To waht to be truly-great for God is certainly! not a sin . In a world which was rejecting Christ and get ting ready tocrucify him, this moth er wanted her two boys to have a place of honor 'In the service of Christ So . far, so good; but then came the thing which'spoiled it aU —selfishness. To seek honor for oneself, or for those one loves in order Uiat the ego might .be inflated and self given a chanceA to show off, !that.' is definitely unchristian,' If then it is . right tb seek proper greatness, how may it be done? Verses 43-45 ,tell us. It is by way at sacrificial service.the denial ot self. - This world--end its kingdoms say that the'One who serves is inferior to the one who is served. In the kingdom of Jesus it is the dne who serves who is greatest' Where will such a path lead? For Christ it led to the cr oss, and be yond it the victory of resuiTection day. It, may -mean" death for us, for a real willingness to serve connotes a willingness to give* all, even life itself, for. his glory.

L O O K I N G A S E A D *r GEORGE S. BENSON PiaUtii-Mtriirf CtUtft Sttttf. Jitkttut Sane Men Early In March, national press wires carried a story from Wash ington to the farthest comers of the country, about 16 members of Con gress who said they thought the national budget should and could be balanced. They were half-and-half senators and representatives. Seven Were Democrats and nine were Re publicans and they made it plain by Mgning a Written statement. They are: SENATE ROUSE Byrd . Cox Bridges Doughton Taft Halleck Tydings Knutson • '• Vandenberg Martin Walsh Taber Wherry Whittington White Woodruff My hat is off to these realistic statesmen. I hope their ranks soon embrace the entire Congress. Our Debts are Huge America’s next chance to have a balanced budget wnl be in the fiscal year of 1947. It starts July I, 1946 and ends Jun^ 30, 1947. The United States is already in debt for every thing it has. Tms does not mean all the country is worth, but it does mean an amount Equivalent to the value of everything the people of this na tion have saved since their ancestors started saving. The national debt is 280 billion dollars. That figure approximates the value of all die farms and farm improvements in the country, all the city real estate and city im provements, all the manufacturing plants in the nation, all the bank accounts, and all the insurance policies, all added up. Starting Over Again ■ The United Stat^ stands now where some pioneer settler of colo nial days might have stood if his log cabin Iwd burned with everything of food and clothing inside. Closer to home: The energetic young family man with two ehildren, who has just finished paying for an $8,000 resi dence, can depend on starting now to buy it all over again in taxes, paying no more than his rightful share of the national debt which is $2,000 per man, woman and child. Tax on this enormous debt will be a new, yearly expense for our gov ernment. It will be a big one too. Interest 'on debt alone will cost' Unde Sam more than he ever raised by taxes in any single pre-war year. If there ever was a time when America’s common people deserved a balanced budget so they could look frankly and boldly at the truth ef debts and taxes, it is now. * Fighting Has Ceased There are ways to start balancing the national budget and the sooner it Starta the better. Hie-war is over and war bureaus can be reduced in sise and. coat The number of fed eral employees can be cut more than moist of ue imagine. Deficit spending (spending what we do not have) can be stopped also if We realjr set our heads to do it By doing this we can save what we do have left Vith all savings gone, we have something left The settler whose cabin burned had his energy and hia good name left. The home owner who must start buying all over again in taxes, still has his credit and a job we hope. Just so the ‘United. States, with prestige among nations and a sound economy, has something left; something of value that must be preserved. an ear to tneir vocai menroers, seem to favor advancement of the race and better living conditions. . Mostof the people in America are not on either side; not yet Thmr haven’t given the issues enough thought That’s the way with the American people, they keep out of all the arguments they can. They are busy with their own affairs and, if you interrupt them, you must state your business in a few words. Unfortunately it is not possible to state these two creeds briefly and dearly; Serious Problem It would not be necessary for a person of average ability to go to college and study a year in order to learn the difference. The problem is not that complicated. Qn the other hand, I can’t cover the case in one newspaper column or in a letter of two nr three pages. It’s not that simple. Everybody owes it a litiie serious thought, however, before it is too late. Nothing was ever more serious to the people of this continent, their children and their grandchildren, than this dispute between “Individ ualism” and “Collectivism.” Those i are the names that best describe j'them. The former may call them- ' selves Democrats or Republicans or Conservatives. The latter may be Nazis, Communists, Fascist or Cen tral Planners. Here, they are revo lutionists. Ttital Heoisions Although I imagine somebody is going to call me an alarmist,' I’m duty bound as a loyal citizen to say: The American people will know all about this sooner or later. If they give the matter some thought and act quickly, they still may take their ‘ choice. Otiierwise they will get Collectivism like it came to the unhappy peoples of other lands who are now starving by the hundreds every day. Here is a fair question: How can anybody identify destructive, alien, revolutionist movements at sight?. They wear respectable names, shout for praiseworthy aims and have pa triotic slogans. Hpw can we pick them out? The best answer I have ever heard came from J. P. Seiber- ling in an address he delivered in Dallas, Texas, a few months ago. He says observe bow they appeal to youl Catering to What? When a philosophy appeals to hu man weaknesses it is plainly ear marked as destructive. Central Planning, for-example, charms no body but people who believe in super-men and recognize themselves as weaklings. The offer of freedom from fear is a vulgar appeal to cowardice. Freedom from want (silly as it is) was never more than *a bait to catch lazy people. -Collec- .tivism offers these, which mean mediocrify for everybody. Individualism offers opportunity, a challenge; no soft stuff like secur ity. Its, rewards are for the ener getic, not the lazy. Individualism offers personal liberfy and individ ual freedom—freedom in expression, freedom in business and freedom in worship. These appeal to man’s coble traits. Indivldualisin offers these, with the highest standards of living for everybody the world has yet known.r. ■ ________ E O O K f N G A S E A D sr GEORGES, BENSON P m U ttl-M e id itf CMUft Sttttf.

C. There is one person in your church Who knows your preacher’s life; She’s wept'and smiled and prayed with him. And. that’s your preacher’s wife She knows one oropbei’s weakest point. And knows his greatest power; She’s heard him speak iu trumpet tones In his great triumph hour. She’s heard him groaning in his soul, » When bitter raged the strife, As-band in his she knelt with him For she’s a preacher’s wife. The crowd has seen him in his strength, When gleamed his mighty sword As underneath God’s banner folds He tared the devil’s horde. Bat she knows deep within her breast That scarce an honr before. She helped him pray the glory down Behind a fastened door. You tell your tales of prophets brave. Who walked across the world, And. changed the course of history By burning wprds they burled.. Yet I will tell bow tack of them Sonie women lived their lives, Who wept with them and smiled with them— They «re the preashers’ wives! —Selected; There are some wouderful truths in this beautiful poem that the av erage person has never known The public looks on the minister of the Gosoel when he preaches with great power, or is successful in his ministry as a soul-winner. and as a great leader of men, or. as 1 rnlRhiv writer, but hardly ever realizes that back of him, in; all probability, is a godly, saintly holy, prayerful wife who has help ed to make him so. She has pray ed much for him. ^fie is on her knees in his Dehalf maybe when the church and the outside world' is asleep. She prays for him at the midnight hour, the early morning hour, and all through the day. She knows the responsibility that rests upon his life and soul, therefore eenters her prayers largely ttpon him. If success crowns hisj efforts, as a preacher of the Gospel she re joices in her heart and soul; but if he seems to be failing .she holds on to God in his behalf, and weeps with him When others turn their backs upon him, and want to send him away, or put him down, she is by bis side, holding to his hand, and holding: to the mighty-hand of God for him, if she knows he is right. If, however, he is wrong, then she prays that God may not leave him nor forsake him, but that He may bring him oat an the’ side of right and victory. When a preacher is going throu very hard and trying places, which is oftentimes the case, his wife, if she is a real child of God; wilt be as true to him then as when he standing on the mountain -top of success and receiving the praises of men. Ii criticisms come to him. or false reports are circulated a- bout him, the true and faithful wifa never turns a cold shoulder toward him, but a loving, tendet. warm, compassionate heart.' She knows he is a man' of God. - She knows, bow be prays when others are slee ping; how he 'carries a burden for «he cbnrch, and for lost sonls, She knows the problems, he faces. .. She knows the hard arid trying places he goes through. She realizes" bet ter than ,anybody else whai be' suf fers for the cause of G od.; And his sufferings are her sufferings; his criticism!, are her criticisms; his tefts and-{rials are\ her tests and -trials; bis strength or weakness Is likewise her strength or weakness, or she makes It so as she enters In to it, so far as right goes. His suc cess'is-her success. She is,his faith ful companion and helpmeet. He owes much to her However, It sometimes happens that -when he may be wearing his crown of thorns that those who place it upon his head don’t realize that they are likewise crowning his precious wife. Theu il happens sometimes that when he is receiving his eulogies, or is crowned as a mighty pulpit orator, or wins fame as a mighty moulder of public opinion, that the public does not realize how mueh his wife has figured in it. Perhaps he never would have climbed as he did if it had not been for his faith ful, godly, g intlv wife. She held up his hiInds through the, years waile he was struggling upward, but the ch.trch and the world knew little about it. The multitudes are not aware of'it. Why not let her share in his fame? At ledst, why not give tier part of the flowers? She has 'prayed, prayed, labored and toiled through the yeajs to help him make good, and has stood with him in all his struggles, and walked with him in his poverty and obscurity. . However, God will re ward her id doe time. Maybe she doesn’t want'any praise, although somatimes it would help her very much tn realize that the church aind the country greatly appreciates her. Manv a great preacher of the Gospel owes his success to his faith ful wife, more than to anybody else, outside the. fact that God stood with him. Above all we give God the honor and glory. But the saintly wife of a preacher is the greatest help and earthly stay to his life of anybody else on the face of the earth, generally speaking. Thank God for every saintly prea cher’s M>le. She is a bright, burn ing and shining light in the home, the church and the community. Some day when you meet your pas tor’s wife, if she is a noble Chris tian woman, which she ought to be, go up to her, take her by the hand, put a piece of money iu it, and tell her that you greatly appre date her. If you bave nothing to give her, then band her a flower by way of encouragement, or by way of sincere appreciation. It will help her. It may liftsome burden from hor heart. Maybe she has labored and toiled in .your midst for the good of your home, your church, your community for years and she Jioesn’t know whether you appreciate it or nut. You have ne ver told her so.: It won’t spoil her to give ,her a flower, or a bouquet, while she lives rather than wait un til she is cold in death, then place them on her casket and cover her grave with them. Give her some flowers now If you are not in reach of her, then write her.a good encouraging, uplitting letter. Send her a gift. Make her smile or weep for joy. Don’t wait 'until she is dead before you say good things a- bout her. 'She won’t know il then. But while many a preacher owes bis success in the ministry princi pally to his-wlfe, so far as the hu man goes, there are other preach ers who have been -sadly defeated in their work, and have lost out.in their souls, and have gone down as a failure before the worM, because of an ungodiy, unsympathetic, evil, tempered. Worldly, wife. Maybe she was proud, and’ he could not bring In enough money to' satisfy her pride. , She wanted him to go into some business so he could make lots of money, live In a fine house, ride in a fine automobile and dress in the height, of fashion. Because he could -not do this' and preach the Gospel, '.she simply: turn, ed against him, fought and oppoa- ed him, and made life so awfully hard for him until he quit; preach, ing, turned a wav from God, and then made a mieerable failure for time and eternity. No doubt' this is true In many instances. She not only kept him out of the kingdom of heaven, but maybe kept a vast host of others out who were lost because.she kept him from preach ing and winning them unto God. It Is tragic. It certainly is a .dan gerous thing for a wife to oppose her husband preaching the Gospel If God calls him. I bave been married twice. My first wife went to be with Tesus ov er sixteen years ago, after we lived together a little more than eight years. She was % wonderful . saint of God. She was such a 'wonder ful blessing to me as a preacher atid writer. O bow l;ard It was to give her ur! However, God gave me another wife who has stood with me faithfully through the years with her blessed prayers, her Lclp- Ing hands, her encouraging words, and her saintly influence. Thank God for her sweet life.. Time and again "we have been without mon ey. and didn’t know whese the next dollar would'come from. We have seen the time when we had little in the house to eat, and sev eral hungry mouths to feed and little bodies to clothe, blit noto ce have I ever heard -her fret and com plain. She didn’t worry, knowing that her. faith was In God, and that Hewould never fail us. I’ve known her to go to prayer many times in regard to our need, and then see bow wonderfully God supplied the need. Once I was away in a re vival In Tennessee end wife was at home with, the children.. I left her without any mouey, or very little at least. Sbe simply went to the little barn and prayed and poured out her heart to God for help, and felt that she bad prayed through, immediately she received through the mail, a twenty dollar bill from Brother S. W. Stout. rui ah mail carrier, from Asheboro I’ve heard wife speak of this many times since then,. It was a definite answer to Der earnest prayers. Whatever suc cess I have had as a minister and writer I owe much of it to mv pre cious companions. Thank God for tbeir beautiful, godly lives. I ex pect to meet the one gone on be foie, and meet souls whom she won to God. Then I expect some sweet day to meet my dear wife in heaven who is vet with me, and meet many also whom she' has won to -God. How fortunate is the preacher who has a godly, prayer ful, noble wife to stand by him through the years of bis ministry] SVe Is worth more than rubies, dia monds and gold.

CABINET LADIES AND MENUS WASHINGTON. — Ladies of the cabinet are really practicing what their husbands preach regarding the saving of food for Europe. Ever since President Tnunan urged that the American people eat the equiv alent of a European ration two days a week, cabinet wives have been studying menus. Mrs. Clinton Anderson, whose secretary of agriculture husband is one of the hardest-working of the food conservers, has given permis sion to publish one of her-menus. It provides 1,540 calories — the equivalent of a European ration— as compared with the normal American diet of 3,600 calories. Here it is, with the number of calories listed after each item of food: Breakfast—glass of orange juice (75); bowl of cereal (100); milk for cereal (85); half-a-pint of milk or cocoa (170)—total, 430. Lunch—half-a-cup of thick soup or chowder (150); vegetable salad without oil in dressing (75); muffin (75); baked custard (100); half-a- pint of milk (170)—total, 570. ' Dinner — poultry, fish or meat (150); potato (large serving) (150); green vegetable (peas, beans, greens or broccoli) (40); raw vegetable strips (carrots, celery, toma to, cabbage) (50); half-cup of fruit (150) or milk for children—total 540. TRUMAN’S GIRL FRIEND The leading lady of the poppy presentation ceremonies to Presi dent Truman fell hard for the chief executive. Three-year-old Betty Lou Hall of Eaton Rapids, Mich., one of- five, orphaned children left by a heroic infantryman killed after the Nor mandy invasion, was selected to put the poppy in Truman’s lapel -in be half of war' orphans of file Veter ans of Foreign Wars. Her job finished, the little girl was asked by photographers if she didn’t want to kiss the President. She complied not with one kiss, bnt a shower of them. In fact, the young lady seemed in clined to continue this part of the proceedings indefinitely un til reminded Butt her embraces were sufficient for picture pur poses. ARMX MORALS OVERSEAS One reason for strong sentiment in the senate against drafting 18- year-olds is that many senators have been abroad since V-E Day and have seen first-hand the wanton immorality to which-young soldiers are exposed. Returned senators are especially critical of U. S. army officers for setting a bad example to young G.I.s. “ When they see their superior officers living ip Ger man castles with fraulelns,” re ported Sen. Harley Eulgore of West Virginia, "enlisted men get a very bad impression. It’s no place for youngsters. After they get to be 21, they can stand on their own feet, but give them a chance to get some education first.” Other senators feel that the army" has an obligation to put its house in order before it demands drafting of 18- and 19-year-olds.“An officer is supposed to set an example to the enlisted man,” com mented Sen. Ed Johnson of -Col orado. "An example of upright liv ing. Some of the examples set by officers in Germany are shocking. Until they clean house they can’t expect us to be enthusiastic about the draft.” Case Bill Boomerangs. Some of the GOP southern coali tion who stamped the Case anti strike bill through the house are singing a different tune in the cloakrooms since the Illinois pri mary election returns have • come in. One of the most significant bat tles in this primary was in the district represented by GOP Con.'Rob- ert B. Chiperfield of Canton, IU., an all-out advocate of the Case bill. A fourth-tenner, Chiperfield ' boasts that never before has he been opposed in a primary elec tion. However, it was different tins year. The Illinoisan not oqly. had an opponent, but he was re nominated only by the skin of his teeth — approximately 1,300 votes. Chiperfield makes no bones to close friends about the reason for his tight squeak.! "My support of the Case bill came, darn close to licking me," he admitted in the GOP- cloakroom. “That was the main issue of the campaign.” DIPLOMATIC CHAFF The Russinn Trade mission to Ar gentina is not on a brief visit.

This, means a terrific boost to American morale. The news that hammocks and fly swatters are now within the reach of all is alone enough to lift a heavy, feeling from the hearts of the peo ple. These two articles open the way to comfort and peace of mind unknown since Pearl Harbor,• *_ Here is a nation, nervous, morose and apprehensive, ■ under the har- assments and confusions, of recon version with all its chaos and be- fuddlements . . . and suddenly it finds it can get hammocks and fly swatters! The lift is tremendous. ♦ . And when you throw in a decora tive sofa pillow and a whittling knife, hoy, yon are gtdldlng the lily.’ This .release of hammocks, fly swatters, etc., may become the smartest move the. Truman admin istration has made so far. It may mean that the tide against the Democrats has not only been checked but’.turaed the .other way. ; » Millions of Americans are forever emphasizing the; part axes, picks, shovels, buffalo guns, surveyCrs’ im plements, pack mules and covered wagons have played in building the nation. But the part Pluyed by ham-, mocks, fly swatters and whittling knives has been overlooked.• Nearly all epic performances are jthe result of someone’s dream.

N. W. Granting Loan to Britain Would Benefit U. S. Business • PROM observations this reporter has made in the hearings on the proposed British loan it appears that opposition is coming largely from the same sources which were-, definitely pre-Pearl Harbor isolationists. ' To the uninitiated the arguments pro and con on this proposed $3,750,- 000,000 loan are confusing. They are involved with high finance and for* eign trade, with the sterling bloc, the export cycles, with interna tional credit and many other factors which only experts at that sort of thing can readily perceive. Stripped down to everyday Ian- gauge, however, here are the po tent factors: (I) We are actually merely extending Britain a line of credit to the amount of $3,750,000,* 000; (2) She can draw on this credit until December 31, 1951, and pays, ns back in 50 equal installments with-interest at 2 per cent; she must pay the principal installment every year and (3) Britain agrees to open up to unrestrained American trade the entire British Commonwealth of South Africa, India, Australia, the British Isles and every place else where sterling is the rate of ex change to American business and American dollars and she cannot obtain a loan from any third coun try until after 1951. Now that’s what We give and Britain promises. What do we get back? We get our money back, plus interest, plus $650,000,000 of iend-lease balance, plus increased exports to Britain and the British Commonwealth, plus payment in dollars, plus no discrim inatory import restrictions against the U. S., plus paying a portion of her debts to other nations in Amer ican dollars giving other countries more money with which to buy American goods, plus support of the American proposals for getting .world trade going through an In* 'ternational Trade Organization. W e Would Cmn Much Now why Is this loan important to the average business man and farmer in the small towns of the country? There are four reasons: (I) We must have an expanding for eign trade to keep our high produc tive capacity on farm and factory going full tilt; (3) Britain and the British Commonwealth of Nations were our best customers before Hie war . . . they took 42 per cent of our trade; (3) an expanding foreign trade among nations can’t happen unless Britain can pay her war debts and can be put on an eco nomically sound basis, for though we have a huge war debt, we owe no one but the American people, whereas Britain owes other nations and (4) without economic security of other nations, fostered by expand ing world trade, there can be no in surance of world peace. And a fifth reason is that Britain, our ally, took an unmerciful poundingcost- Jng thousands of British lives, to save American lives while we were getting prepared for war. . The argument is made that Brit ain did not pay her debt to us after World War I. She did pay back 434 million dollars in principal and Vk billion dollars in interest before the world depression caught her. The argument also is made that to make this loan will cause some in flation here and the answer is that Britain only wants goods which come from our war-expanded indus tries and commodities of which we , have surpluses and moreover, if she spends it all here, it would only amount to five-tenths of I per cent of the total demand for goods and services in this country over ah anticipated five-year period. Little Left to Sell : Let Britein sell her holdings in lthis country, is another argument of >the isolationists. But she has' only 585 million dollars in unpledged as sets in this country, and in addition., she is borrowing 1% billion dollars from Canada at 2 per cent, the only other country which has dollars. Another argument is, why should we loan our dollars to a socialist nation? Well, there is a question of whether or not England really is socialist. Even if it is, neverthe less it is the Bank of England that finances the Britidi government, with internal loans. Most certainly an expanding world trade and at-, tending prosperity will tend to itrengtheii rather than .weaken Aie free enterprise system, even in Eng land! So the British loan will not subsidize socialism in England. ' And the argument that to malm a ,loan to Britain will open the door to !applications for other nations. This Iis answered in this fashion. . .:. UNRBA will take care of relief loans/ The Bitemational Bank will take care of long-term reconstruc tion said development loans and the U. S. Import-Export bank will help finance American foreign . trade. I British financiers have told Jiouse ^majority leader Barkley that they 'cannot enter the international bank jor the monetary fund unless the loan is granted without “strings," T U R N I N G P O I N T f l i f .

Jlm Is furious and calls the sheriff, hot learns the iSberiff is on the wigr over IooUng (or Jordan. Sten» hart tides off to guide the sheriff. CHAPTER IX It occurred to him that it would be terrible to have the sheriff find Jane with this man. He drummed with his fingers on'the edge of his desk, his face white. He had just tele phoned to the stables for his horse when a door opened and old Teresa came toward him, a paper in her hand. Jim looked around impatiently. “You'll read this for me, senor?” The little brown woman thrust the paper in his hand.. It was the picture of Sherwin; be- Jpw.dtiwas printed-a-description of the crime. Jim frowned. “This isn’t pleasant reading, Tere sa, and it wouldn’t interest you!” She caught at his sleeve. “Bead it,'senor!”.she begged. ' Half ai^dy^fe Jim complied. “Madre de Dios, it's as he said!" she mumbled, her ores dilated. “He's got a devil!” -The old woman caught! at his sleeve, pointing. Through the open door she could glimpse Stenhart’s disappearing figure, ' high up the road. “He’s got a devil!” she'mumbled, crossing herself. Then she caught at his coat and clung to it, keeping him from the door. “Madre de Dios, don’t let Jane marry heem, senor!” she begged. Jim, tried to the limit, shook her off. "Oh, mind your own business, Teresa!" he growled. She covered her face with her shaking hands and he heard her praying Spanish as he ran down the slope. He must get to Jane before Stenhart unleashed the sheriff’s gang! He was honestly worried. Second thought had cooled his rage; he remembered that he owed something to this fugitive that he was hounding: Then he saw his sister? She had just swung herself from the saddle down by .the stables, and as she turned he saw how pale she was. Jane had never looked like this! “The devil take that fellow!” Jim muttered to himself, wrathful again. Then he spoke sharply. “Where have you been?” Jane took no notice of his tone. She came up, panting. “ What’s the matter?” she gasped. - “Perhaps you know better than I do,” be replied?-ironically. Jane caught at his arm with shak ing hands. “What does it mean? I saw Stenhart meet the sheriff on the upper road—tell me quick, quick!” Jim. eyed her coldly. “I 'phoned for Cutler. He’s going to take that jailbird, Sherwin, back to Rhode Is land, and I’m going to help him, that’s all!” . Jane’s-Ihand dropped from his arm. She turned deathly white, and for a moment she swayed on her feet. Jim threw an arm around her. '• “My God, Jane, you don’t care for a murderer?” She pushed him away from her with both hands. “He saved your life and you’ve-, betrayed him—you Judas!” she cried:’.. “Jane—” he tried to restrain her but she broke away, ran back to her horse and leaped igto the saddle. Jim made an ineffectual snatch for the reins. “Where-are you going, you' mad womanf’-'he shouted at her.She turned and f looked back, at him, haggard and broken. “I’m go ing to warn him—something dread ful will happen if he meets Sten- hartl” i-'"' / '- “Stop—waif, I’m coming!” Jim cried, but she was gone at a gallop. . Her brother turned and shouted for his !horse. Jose had saddled it and Jim flung himself into the saddle and was off in an instant; Jane was'well in the lead, riding reck lessly, but Tex was tired; -Jim’s horse was fresh and the distance be tween them grew less and less as be reached the bridge, crossed it,, and raced on. He could see now, .as he turned the loop, that Stenhart had met Cutler on the upper road; they were far ahead. The posse had di vided, too, and, as Jim rode on, he made out their plan; they meant to cut Sherwin off, pen him on the hillside, and then beat the bushes. If Jane reached bis hiding-place first, -if she knew of some, secret trail, she. would be. trapped with M m i The. blood rushed to Jim’i face at the thought; he cursed bis folly, for giving- Stenhart this chance. “He’s mad with jealousy!’! he thought, and urged his horse. ' But Jane was still ahead and she had taken an unexpected turn to the right? Jim remembered that he did not know Where the man was hid den. But Steiihart did, be had tracked her, 'aid Stenhart was go ing toward the cataract when he glimpsed him last through the trees. On the upper road They traveled faster, Cutler and Stenhart, turning a sharp curve between two wooded spurs. The trees below, them hid the brother and sister as they gal loped past the creek, and there was a long piece of virgin forest where they cotild see nothing either way, and the voice of the cataract dead-, ened all other sounds. Here and there was a glimpse of the wild ravine, but Jim had never- seen Mac’s little cabin and, as yet,' he saw no trail; then he observed Jaiie reining In her horse, Iopkmg up. Could she see' anything? He Struck his spurs into his own horse and the. animal bounded forward. They had come to a- sharp curve and Jane, trying to turn aside, lost her chance to escape. Jim’s horse, faster than hers, leaped a fallen tree and her brother snatched at Tex’s bridle and brought him to a standstill. ' Jane struck at his:hand with her quirt. “Let me go!” she cried fierce ly; “I’ve got to go up'that trail!” She was pointing with a shaking Then, as the man be had hunted neither moved nor spoke, he tottered back, stumbled, and fell headlong over the narrow (edge. hand at an opening in the brush, until now unseen. “I swear you won’t!” Jim-flung back, red in the face; “you’re my sister.” The girl struggled, trying- to fregr herself, and both horses plunged. Then, suddenly, she gave a little cry, looking up through the trees: The horses had whirled around-tha curve and faced the cataract^ through widespread branches Jim caught a glimpse of the trail along the ledge, above the precipice, a trail he had never followed, never even seen before. “I’m too late—oh,• God, I’m too late!” Jane moaned, dropping the reins into Jim’s hands-and clasping her own against- her breast. ’ ’ The white agony of her face smote her brother; in a.tumult of feeling,, anger and regret, he held the horses steady aiid tried to follpw her eyes. At first, in the broad glare of the sunlight on the high hills, he saw nothing but the white’ spray of tee cataract and the mighty tree-trunks that seemed to rise upward in ser ried ranks, like an army. He could not even hear voices above the roar of the water, but he knew- that Cut ler’s men were behind them and be fore them, creeping up the moun tainside, stealtlqr and sure, upon their quarry, as the hunter steals upon his game. Suddenfy his heart failed him—he felt he had done a thing that he might well regret. - No matter if the man was a convict, he had no reason to bunt him down; rather, indeed, - he had cause to' spare him. Jim ’s face sobered'and grew pale. Then Jahe flung’ herself from the saddle and started toward the screened opening of the trad, but, though she was quick, Jim was quicker; he was down in a moment and after her. He caught her and held her,- struggling, in his arms. “You’re too late, Jane!” he ex claimed hoarsely. “Don’t you see? I do! They’re bound'to meet— look!” He had glimpsed the' steep side of the precipice at last, and seen what his sister had been watching. Sherwin was standing beside a cliff, high on,-the tirail. Below him, two hundred feet, dashed the cataract; along the narrow, dizzy iledge, as yet unaware of him, , came Steiteart —alone I Cautiously,, searching, peering tills way , and that, un aware that his quarry saw him. Waited for him. Those two alone and the chasm, at their feet—Fate, that mocking siren, had staged the scene for murder; the wild torrent .below flung up its mad spray with a shout Jane, - looking- up how, saw that she could not reach Sherwin, could not even cry out to him. She knew of the cave—he had told her of it— as a way to escape; a wirning in time and they would never find him,. could not trap him, but she was too late; Stenhart would see him, Sten hart would betray him]- She had fought with Jim, but now she stood still with her brother’s arms about her; he could feel her shake from head to foot as she looked up at the two. men alone there, on tee edge of eternity. The climax had come; they were face to face - to .fight it out, no one could reach .them in time! Stenhart, moving cautiously, foot by- foot, peering, listening, looking baCk for help—help that would never reach' him! Sierwin waiting. Jim caught his breath. A cioud had obscured the sun, and as it sailed away he saw Sherwin’s face as he' crouched,, leaning, forward, ready! One' thrust' and ‘ Stenhart— coming on, unaware of him—would- go down—down. Jane covered her face with , her hands, but it was Jim who cried out hoarsely, tried to. shout a warn ing; then, realizing its futility, he groaned aloud. “Good God, he’s going to kill him!” he cried. Sherwin had stepped out from his hiding-place; he seemed to tower, vengeance incarnate. Stenhart stood still an instant, frozen in his tracks. His drawn pistol fell from his hand; he seemed to shrink-together in mor tal terror. Then, as the man he had hunted neither moved nor spoke, he tottered back, stumbled and fell headlong over the narrow ledge. '' It had happened in an instant, In the twinkling of an eye. Sher win, waiting for his betrayer, saw Jiim-untouched, unscathed—crum ple up, reel backward and plunge over .the edge of the precipice. So swift was it, that he neither moved nor spoke; for a fajl minute he. stared blankly at tee spot where Stenhart had disappeared. A strange sensation swept him, he grew dizzy himself; his head swam, and’ the hills seemed to rise up about him in awful majesty. He knew nothing of the men who were creeping to ward him through the woods; he believed himself alone, alone with, that awful power which had seized his enemy and brushed him like a fly from the ledge! Slowly he took a step forward and, steadying him self, looked over the brink. Thirty feet below him that solitary stunted tree thrust out its dwarfed, trunk from the sheer side of the precipice. Sprawled across it, limp, motion-, less, 'lifeless, hung: Stenhart. Th* white froth of the boiling torrent below him .outlined his sprawling limbs, histeanging head, his ghastly upturned face. He was not dead!* Even as Sher win looked, he saw him move his head to the torture of pain and fear; it was more terrible than a swift wiping out of life, for death was play ing, a game of hide and seek with him. A movement, almost a breath, and he would go down into eternity, and if he hung there—with np mor- t'al help at hand—he must perish thus!' It could not be fdr:long, but Sherwin, looking down at him, knew that he was conscious and saw no helgj only the face of the man who had sworn to kill him! . Rev&tye ex quisite in Ihis torments, was accom plished. ^ Sherwin need but Jfyind there and see him die! Even he looked, he saw the old tree begin to waver under the dead weight of the fallen body; its roots were loosening in their age-old crevice of rock. In:. a'Uttie. while, long before help could reach SteUhart, it woiuS bend down ward. Annihilation waited- there, eternity yawned for him, CAd he knew it! Sherwin, grasping a ledge of rock to steady himself, looked down 'at the helpless man who had betrayed him. Stenhart, looking up dizzily, saw him 4md-tried to.lift a feeble hand in rittreaty.. It was beyond his strength.' He hung there, feeling the tree sway_, beneath him, helpless, at the end of hope... Sherwin straightened fcftaself sud denly ;he Had'heard a distant sound; voices in the woods! ~ Instantly, he divined the truth.; Stenhart had again betrayed bfin, they were Tafteg biro. But he had ample time to reach hi* cave, and once there they would not get IiimtVforIhel knew the other opening and it was safe. Nor cotild they save Stenhart; the tree was giving! Five minutes more—and he would be avenged! He need not stir a finger, and Jane, who bad besought him not to slay, would, know that there was no blood upon his hands! He drew a deep breath; almost at his feet lay the coil of rope that he had dfopped when he met Jane. He saw'it and remembered the purpose he Jted had in mind. The -minutes seemed to beat themselves into his brain, his. pulses throbbed, his lips were parched. He stooped, readied for the rope and, uncoiling it, wound it about the. great trunk of a syca more/then, tossing the long'end over the ride of tee -abyss, he grasped it and began to descend; hand over hand- Tberppeswtoigoutandteenwent taut with his weight.

It is commonly reported that ’teen-agers and even 12-year old children have bsen seen stagger ing out o f die joints where this “Brew” is dished out. It is also reported that people are hailed on the streets and urged to buy. Al so that automobiles make a regu lar business of “shoestringing” for the bootleggers.

My advice to you is serve, light meals, well balanced, to be sure, 'and Ihen top them off with a grand, brand-new dessert! This first suggestion is tart but. smooth and pretty enough for com pany.

A FRIEND WHO LEARNED TO BELIEVE -LESSON TEXT-Joha 11: 7, 8. 16; 20: 24-29. MEMORY SELECTION — Blessed art they that have not seep, and yet have believed.—John 20:29.'* ____ Doubt and faith—both seem to come to toe hearts and minds of men. Vet they are directly contra dictory to one another and cannot exist together. To believe is to drive out doubt, and when doubt comes in, faith loses its grip. Thomas, and -his experience fol lowing the resurrection of our Lord, presents a lesson on what a man can 'do to meet honest doubt and how such a man can come out into the- sunshine of faith. We find in Thomas, first, an ex : S CO CHS. to a In .ko. thence S. 63 degs. W. 3 .1 7 cbs. is, a stone in Campbell’s line; the^. 0 bii£i5Xih!*uf'>‘fte''(nreats' of’ men, Jesus was about to go once more into . Judea. On his last two visits there, the Jews had sought to kill him,.namely,-at toe feast of taber nacles (John ,8:59) and atfhe" feast of dedication (John 10:31). He was not one to. draw back for the fear of men when the Father’s Will lIed him forward in his service to humanity, Lazarus was dead, and Mary and Martha needed him and he was going to them. Then came a fine expression of the loyalty of Thomas. - If his Lord was going to face death, he was willing to go along and die with him. Let us recognize that here 'was a man of real courage, willing to show his loyalty even by giving his life.There is something fine about that attitude, and something which shows us that when this man later expressed doubt, it - was not -the. silly and shallow unbelief of a trifler. .This man loved the Lord and served him, and yet he failed him. When we think we are strong, we had better watch out Iesi we fail. Let us be clear and triumphant in- our declaration of loyalty to Christ, both by word and by life. . And then let qs set a double guard against the enemy of our souls. , ' Thomas next appears in n . Faithless Failure (John 16:24, 25). Hehadbeenwillingtodieforhis Lord, or with him, but now the Lord .had beetf taken by wicked, hands and crucified. He and the disciples were alone to face a hostile world; at least so it seemed to them. : Qie awful day of cruci&tion. preyed heavily upon the mind of Thomas. That is evident from verse 25. He had been thinking- of those awful bleeding wounds, and had for gotten about the promises of resurrection. Jesus died, and that is' a precious truth; but one must not ;stop there, for a dead Saviour is 'no-Saviour -at all. Thomas got sidetracked in his thinking. -Let us not make the same mistake. Another reason for his failure was that-he did not go to'the meet ing of his brethren. Perhaps he did not feel like going, and did not think it. was any use to go. Ah, but’ that’s'just toe time one needs the fellowship of other believers. Go, and you will meet the Lord!: ' The - Lord was there and Thomas missed; him .. We, too,, will miss the. Lord Vand his ,blessing if we stay away from his house and the meet-, tag of his people:' ’ Having gone'thus far id discour aged unbelief, -it was ;,easy . for Thomas to take toe next 'step and demand ,physical proof of toe resur rection. His despondency’Had now reached toe place of making unreasonable demands and of discredit ing toe Witness of others.. We are glad that we can close our study on the note of renewed faith-and of ' m . Full Confession (John '16:26- 29). . . - - Note that toe Lord' was ready fully to meet toe demands-of Thom as, even though they were on' the unreasonable - side. .That -.was. un doubtedly because he knew toe es sential fineness. and trueness of Thoma's. , J His doubts- were-" unfortunate and entirely unnecessary, but they were genuine, No real doubter will ever remain one long, for if he brings a genuine doubt to toe Lord, he will - flnd.it fully met. It is the triflergj .those who use their .doubts to hide their .sins, and those who are un willing to bring their dark thoughts into toe light of the presence of Jesus, who go on doubting year aft er year. Notice, the comment of Jesus fol lowing toe glad-and complete con fession of faith by Thomas. "Jt is a good thing to believe becaUse one has seen and been convinced. That is proper and blessed. But the real fullness of - blessing comes to the one who. can rise to faith in Christ because of his word, quite apart from toe visible or tangible evidence. This is real Chris tian faith which declares Christ to be our .Lord and our God, the one whom having not seen, we love (I Pet.-1:8).

MOCKSVILLE N.C., MAY 15 1946 T h e H isto ry o f C o ffe e The fragrant cup of coffee which makes 11s civil every morning and jrenews us so often during the day (links many nations in a long and •romantic history. Just when it first appeared as a beverage no one can say exactly. But that it was an Ara bian discovery seems very likely in view of the fact that coffee grew wild in that part of the world before the ninth century after Christ, and fanciful Arabian nights tales have been handed down about the first brew. The most popular legend concerns Kaldi, an Axabian goatherd, whose dull life on the hillside made him a gloomy Joe indeed. But he picked and ate some of the berries bis goats were fond of nibbling, because' he noticed that after eating these ber ries, the goats became gay creatures. Kaldi himself became a new man. Thereafter coflee berries were indis pensable to his diet, and so carefree and lively did he become that he often joined his goats in a merry dance. A monk, to whom Kaldi confided his experiences, prepared a . drink from the beans and served it to the members of his order. They found the beverage sustained their energy and helped them to pray and medi tate longer, so they adopted the drink and cultivated the plant. Gradually the popularity of the beverage spread to Turkey, where, in 1554, the first public coffee.house was established. It was introduced to (he Venetiiins in 1616, the French , In 1044, the English and VlenneM I in 1650, and it was brought to North' I America in 1868. But promptly the I power of the beverage to stimulate ; dear thinking and plain talking con verted the popular coffee houses into discussion dubs. And political de bate that exploded into dissension, direct action and resistance made coffee houses, the targets of tyrants like Charles II of England, who termed them seminaries of sedition. But, according to Disraeli, London and Paris coffee houses of the seven teenth and eighteenth centuries held the mirror to "the manners, the morals and the politics of 'a people." Here in colonial United States, too, the coffee house became the meeting house of the town fathers, and alter a time Changed from purely social centers to focal points of merchant trade and political discussion. Daniel W ebster called Boston’s dreen Dragon Coffee House "the headquarters of the American Revolution.” The Dutch took the coffee*plant to South Amoica back around 1718, with a result that every sixth grader knows. Today’s coffee plantations in Pan-America produce three-fourths of the world’s coffee. And because we are the world’s greatest coffee drinkers, of course we’re the biggest customers for the Pan-American yield. AU previous invoices were topped in 1945, when the United States imported 20,279,690 bags of coffee, each containing 132 pounds! R E D CROSS HOM E N U R S IN G ARE YOU AS SMART AS YOUR BABY?

Any Indivldusl who can find something that a great many people need, ana tgat* out a way to keep them from getting It, has put himself In a “key position’’ able to make a lot of pe»- pji fuller.

AtUttet From “V” to “E” The indicator that points to primary objectives on XJncle Sam’s dial moved, August 12, from Victory, to Employment. Correctly , this na tion’s llrst aim from December 7, 1941, to V-J Day was to win the war and save, the world’s' free peoples from desnotic rulei wnrth all it cost Damages have been fearful. Somei never can be repaired; some OancJ There are twisted minds and bro ken hearts, wounds, to heal ana: debts to pay. Those losses that can' be won back will demand much' time and patience. By ..their very nature, they are deferred. But un employment is another aggressive enemy, not to be put off.' We pro vide work sow or lose what our young man bought .with their lives.'Something to Avoid . Mass unemployment in this coun try might easily start a revolution among industrial workers that would overthrow the republic and destroy our very American way of life. It is the one catastrophe to be feared by the whole people of America. War’s end touched off much talk about post-war legisla tion but all of'it is relatively un important except what has to do with gainful employment. Legislative acts that . merely promise work to service men are nothing but emotional brainstorms. Jobs have to pay their own way to be worth having. .Snce 19,000 men will lay down arms every day for 14 months, one of three things, must happen: (I) Private industry must expand and make room for them,' (2) Government wQl make a big WPA for them or (3) Want will bring desperation. Good Tax Laws First A hungry and' outraged people rush mob-like to dictatorship. An army-size WPA marches with Blave-. like steps to the same destination. Wdl paid jobs in private industry with opportunity for improvement and advancement constitute the only ,work At for a free people. It is the only solution worthy of -America's dean record. Industiy must expend and make jobs. It is the only way to remain free. Only one thing stands in the way —Iatett Expanding industry, enough to make the needed jobs, calls for investments which (same as jobs) have to pay. Today’s taxes, however, make it impossible to find a paying investment that will make jobs. The tax laws were all right in 1940 when they were passed to take the profit out of war. Now they threaten to ruin our future by tak ing the prosperity out of peace. A Simple Tax Plan It is my conviction that corpora tion'taxes and standard individual taxes should be levied at the same rate. I think the structure should be high enough to meet the require ments of the proposed budget with out having any surtaxes higher than 80%.

Land Of Cotton Sickens Over Government By CIO Way down Sonth in Dixie, Mas- St probably was glad to be in, the cold, cold ground, safe from the OPA and CIO. , Dixie, captive of the leftward Democrats, had the mutters; Three Georgians at Clarksville qnit the OPA panel cold. The three, Cle ment Cornwall, W. S. Whitworth and W. F. Maisengilt, resentfully concluded: “It seems to us that the welfare of all the people is secondary to this Administration, the primary oh- jectect being votes from a noisy pressure group of less than one twentieth of the citizents of this country. To be blunt, we are sick and tired of the CIO, by the CIO, for the CIO . . We are convin ced that, the President is either wearing dark glasses or is not able to distinguish between a bhgle and a betdgehead. Anyway, the lid is off, the mad dance is on and votes are votes.” In Chattanooga, Tenn., Henry Resnick, grocer, incensed at being “arrested” by the qnasi - legal snoops of OPA and “fined” $338, charged OPA Clerk Albert R. Bain had knifed him during the altercation which.followed. The Nnw Orleans Cotton Ex change received a telegrom from Chairman Thomas, .Democrat from Oklahoma, of the Senate agricul ture committee. telling it to ignore any OPA request to raise margin requirements'to $50 a bale Thom as said such a directive was “dic tatorial” and "unauthorized inter. terauce”-and the . only reason for; such action wontd he to- “beat down the price of cotton.” READ THE ADI AImig Wilh theNewr "Democracy In Action” Charlotte Observer; The nation-has been haying what was termed “the greatest demon stration of Democracy in action’’ in its history. - This assertion was made by. Ches ter Bowles, head of the Office of Wage Stabilization but who is also still the presiding genius of .the OPA. Mr. Bowles’ reference to this^ra- matic exhibition of “ Democracy in action” relates to the flooding of Congress with mail, telegrams1 and petitions protesting . the death of O PA asif anybody was'seriously considering putting it to death. This 1 Democracy in action” eu logized bA Bowles Consists of an unprecedented activity on the part of the OPA, its 31,000 . employes, its friends and flunkies all over the land, who inspired hundreds . of thousands of Americans into fana tical opposition to any . amendment to the agency’s present Authority which Cougress considers to be In the pubfic interest This " Demooracv in action” was illustrated by these tons of mail be ing first placed in the hands of the people by the propagandists of the agency. Hundreds of thousands of m'neo- graphed letters, hundreds of thous ands of pre-stamped and pre-writ- ten post cards wete distributed with-, out -discrimination—much of .which was written directly or indirectly under the a.ispices or at the insji nation of the OPA itself All ot this, mountainous .mass of inspired and prompted uiail was de signed to impress Congress that the American people in large majority were rising up on their own' motion and by tbeir own unprodded. and nnpersuaded initiative to demand that the present OPA administra tion be continued precisely as it has been and without tHa ' dotting ot an “i” or crossing of a.“t.” This is what- Mr. Bowles calls, “Democracy in action.” It is not that at all. It is bureaucracy in action, and that is tyranny and. depotlsm in ac tion. It is the technique df totali- tarians. . If Mr, Bowles really would like to have a sample o f' Democracy in action, we have it for him,. The other night in a small com munity of a neighboring county, 45 citizens met lntone of their- re gular meetings for social. fellow ship and interchange of ideas. Quite casually, someone suggest ed that the topic for an -open forum discussion for this meeting be that of. the OPA. None of the 45- pres ent had been coSehed either for or against. , They were free to - speak their own minds and to voice;. their own opinions without having “prac. -iced up” or having anybody teaeb them their “pieces.”* - Finally, when those who had wished to enter into the discussion of the matter had finished, a sug gestion was made that ■;a vote be taken as to how the 45 stood on the question of the OPA.' • The result was one man voted in. fayoj of continuing tne agency as it is. Five voted ter eliminate it altogether. The other 39 voted continuation only on condition that the OPA be compelled by Congress to use some common sense in its administration. To everv American this should be considered as a classic ' example of “Democracy in action,” uot-Mr. Bowles’ kind, not the kind which aU of the 'master plannefs ; would like to see in this country, not the kind that the Socialists and Com munists believe in, but the kind to which all real Americans are deep ly devoted. .

Federal Land Bank Now Farmer-Owned The Federal Land Bank "of Co lumbia is now entirely' owned, by the farmer members of the 85 natT ional farm loan associations and a small nnniber, of direct bdrrowets in the Third Farm Credit District, according to a statement !received this week from Jnlian H. Scarbo rough, President of the bank, by Geo. L. Crater, Secretarv Treasur er of the Winston-Salem National Farm Loan Association.' The final payment of approximately $5 000, • 00Q of the Government’s invest ment was.made on May 1' Secre- tary-Treasuser Crater said. The initial capital of-the Federal Land Bank ofCoIumbia of $750.- 000 was provided by the Govern ment when the bank was chartered on March 16. 1917. This capital was gradually repaid as the nation al farm loan associations purchased capital Btock In the bank and bv> 1918 all - Government. capital had been returned. . During the period 193a 38 the-Government again In. vested In the capital and surplus of the bank to enable it to. meet' the tremendous demand for .farm niort- gage credit existing daring that time. Tbebankfaas been.paying off this Government investment • as rapidly, as possoble a d completed payment irifnll on May 1st. ' ' . Nearly ail of ,the bank’s capital of some $2,6oo |6oo - is owned by the 85 national farm loan associa tions in North Carolina, South Car olina, Georgia and Florida.- Only a small’amount is owned by farmer borrowers Who have obtained . di rect loans from the bank. The capital of the associations is owned entirely by their farmer members;, thus, the capitel of the land bank is indirectly owned by farmer users' of the credit facilities of the bank and the associations. The. bank has loaned more th- n $160,000,000 to nearly 70.000 far mers since it was organized 29 years ago. Farm mortgages held, qy the bank approximate 40,006, 000 at this time. Loan repayments have beeg at a tapid rate during the last three years with more than $4 paid to each $t loaned. “The liberal repayment policy of the bank.encotirages borrowers to make advance, payments on their loans and pay them in full before matur ity which has enabled many farm ers to own their farms and. homes, free of debt,' much sooner than planned,” Secretary-Treasnrer Cra ter skid.

But the ladies will hail it, no doubt as ^'development of more, or less vital importance. It concerns stockings—if not nylons,-at least a fairly reasonable fasdmile,- It seems 162 thousand thousand pairs of rayon stockings have been declared surplus by the sinned forces. Today die OPA set a retail price ceiling of 95 cents h pair o n these stoddngs. The war Read Tkis And, Weep it: took Westbrook Pegler to blast the myth, of: Franklin' Roose velt's admirers that be-was a ‘ holy” man and therefore left his great Hvde Bark estate a s'a' shrine^, be cause of that. This noted writer lays tare facrs the President made it a “shrine” tnerely to dodge oay- ta'xes On it, His. articles-'in full, is as fallows: ; ~ In the weekprqceeding the lot tnal acceptance of the Roosevelt an cestral tpansion at. Hyde Park by the i Department of the Interior as[ a national monument several press dispatches referred to this property as a shrine. In the pure sense, a shrine is a place or object consecrated to some holy person.. In the vulgar sense it may be : anything from Hney Long’s tomb, revered by many ig norant Lonisiana backwoodsmen to Red Granger’s number 77 which Ue wore 'on the back of his sweater at the University of Illi nois and which; upon the close of bis career, was solemnly withdrawn trom issue, never to be worn' by a- nother. Hnev Long , was a dangerous scound.rel who. for all we -know or his Gestapo ever permitted any re cord to show, may have been as. sastnated by one of their number and not by the unfortunate Doctor Weiss who was instantly shot to tatters by the armed gu- rds whom Huey frankly called mv “my thug men,” .Sqmethousands of illiter. rates in Louisiana regarded Long as a savies and revere his memory just as in Germany, millions of bn- man beings, ,including many qigh- jy intellectual persons, actually a- dored Adolf Hitler and still regard him as a martyred deity. : Franklin D. Roosevelt was in no sense a holy person and so the memorial which he prearranged in his own honor in a display ot that taste which was characteristic of him, is-not a shrine in. the au thentic meaning of the world. The one place in our country which most nearly constitutes a shrine is the Tomb of the Uuknown Soldier in Washington, who personifies all the Americans who were killed in the First World War. Washing, ton’s tomb-at Mount Vernon and Lincoln's at Springfield, 111., are so regarded in a pur el v historical sense, the negroes who' inaccurate- believe Lincoln fonght the Civil War to-emancipate them although he plainly said he' fonght to pre- serveVthe Union and that if he could have done this without em ancipating, them ' he. would nave done so. Washington and Lin coln are not regarded by Americans generally as holy men, however, and no person of prominence has yet had the effrontery to declare that Mr, Roosevelt was holy.

Qnestion of Principle— Not Prices When the government sets out to coutroi prices, and supply and de- ' maad—the natural forces of the free market—it must ' reach ruth Iessly into'the lives of all the peo ple. There can. be nothing dem ocratic about it. . The United States is trying to straddle tbe fence. It is trying to control “in. flation” painlessly for as many people as possible with a strong show of democratic justice,. which may sound like good political strat egy but which simplv will not work. Tbe corollary to price control is wage control. Under the govern ment’s fence-straddling policy it has not been expendient to control wages. Such a step is unpopular with too many people. - On the other band, the OFA-is a splinter of European dictatorship. It rules prices by decree, it sends people to jail, its spies sift through the af fairs of milllions of thousands of businesses—and the private dtizen is effectively barred from seeking relief from its decisions in the re gular courts: If OPA is continued, the principle it represents—govern ment by unqdestioned decree—must be broaded promptly. Wages too must be controlled, and strikes must be barred Tbe present half- and-half system—half free, half controled, is leading to production demoralization. In deciding tbe future of OPA, the first question to be answered is What kind of system of govern ment do wc want in this country? This is a question of principle, not prices. Bv comparison, prices. .are irrelevant. Today no one can talk about prices' with any certainty. In flation may continue its course re. gardiess of tbe system of govern ment we decided to follow. The point is we must choose a form of government and stick with it, or face anarchy. If the decision is in favor of the traditional American government of checks and balances under which coercion by decree is prohibited, the OPA and the auth oritarian principle is reprents must be abandoned' If prices go through the' roof during the readjustment to the free market, the country will have to-grin and bear it with the knowledge that the path of free dom is sometimes hard, although in* -the end its rewards are worth the sacrifice—something that A mericaus have known since 1776. ~ Uoion Republican. AUTO LOANS\ CITIZENS FINANCE CO. Vanee Hotel Bldr Statesville, N. C. y THE DAVIE RECORD, MOGESVILLE, N. C. --------------------------- ! .P h itU p jm SENATORS URGE RULE CHANGE WASHINGTON.—Ten senators— Democrats and Republicans—got together secretly the other day to study that most sacred of all sacred cows—senate rules. Behind their meeting was the conviction that die hard Dixie Democrats can block any measure they oppose via the fili buster, and that the majority must rule if democracy is to function in' the U. S. A. The secret meeting took place aft er senators received a flood of let ters both for and against the at tempt by Wayne Morse, Oregon Re publican, to secure passage of the anti-poll tax bill through unani mous consent of the senate. Only senators on the floor at the time Morse attempted this strategy were Morse himself and Republican Wil liam Langer of North Dakota. Liberal Democrat Warren .Mag- nuson of Seattle, Wash., was'' pre siding. Had he immediately asked senators if there was objection, there would have been none and the anti-poll tax bill would have passed. Morse had identified the. bUl only by number, so Magnuson did not at once recognize it. But, even if be had, probably he would have hesitated to pass a controversial bill without debate. He was rescued from this dilem ma by Senator Ernest MacFarland, Arizona Democrat, who quickly came to the floor and objected. Since then, senate mail has.1 been strong with letters both objecting to the Morse attempt as trickery and-supporting Morse on the ground that this strategy was no more un fair than the filibuster. Regardless of the above merits, a bipartisan group of ten senators has determined that senate rules must he changed. They seek to limit debate on any single bill to ten days, which would bring up the anti- poll tax bill, already passed by the house, before the senate re cesses. They are thinking also of bringing up legislation to cre ate a permanent FEPC-provid- ed they succeed in winning their amendment to the senate roles. ' The ten senators are: Democrats —Pepper (Fla.) Magnuson (Wash.), Guffey (Pa.), Glen Taylor (Idaho), Huffman (Ohio), Kilgore (W. Va.), and Mead (N. Y .); Republicans— Ferguson (Mich.), Knowland (Cal.) and Capper (Kan.).• * * FINAL PEARL HARBOR REPORT Believe it or not, but the long- delayed reports on the Pearl Har bor investigation at last are being whipped into shape. They will not be published until around June, but here is the, inside story on how the final verdict is shaping-up. The Democratic majority on the committee, led by Senator Alben Barkley of Kentucky, will absolve the two top military leaders in Washington—Gen. George Marshall and Chief of Naval Operations Adm. Harold R. Stark—of major responsi bility. They will receive some minor rebukes, especially for poor co-ordination of army and navy in telligence; but nothing serious., Democratic members of the committee also will absolve the state department of any blame and will let major blame rest, where the original Roberts re port contended it belonged—on the shoulders of army and navy commanders -in the Hawaiian area—General Short and Ad miral ESmmeL Republican members of the com mittee will file a sharply worded minority report upholding Short and Kimmel and charging (I) that Short and KimmeI weren't sufficiently ad-, vised by Washington about inter cepted Jap messages presaging the Pearl Harbor attack; and (2) that the two officers weren’t provided with • enough long - range ' patrol planes to spot the Jap fleet. . . . PATTON’S DIARX The war’s stormiest hero, Gen. George S. Patton, was the center of many a"controversy before he*died. But today the war department is still sitting on one of the hottest, of Patton’s hot potatoes—the general’s secret diary. Oidy a few people in the war department and the Patton fam ily know it, but the famous gen eral kept a careful diary all dur ing the Normandy campaign, jotting down bis frank com ments about the Allies and even about his superior officers. Some of the comments just about burned up the page. General Patton especially paid his. compliments to the famous Brit ish field marshal, Montgomery, whom he criticized with almost the same bluntness as the soldier in the Sicilian hospital whom he slapped.• * • i CHIPS FROM A GRANITE LIFE Most people have forgotten, but it was Harlan Stone to whom the nation owes a debt for picking J.

Legs and Inflation Milady’s legs have a bearing on inflation, reconversion, prosperity and economics. Those “gams," it seems, are definitely related to the state of the union. •_ By being a . little skimpy on clothes a girl may be helping America over the crest and hastening a more stable economic order. The less she wears the more she may be lessening the. burdens of the President, his cabinet, • OPA, _ the Democratic National committee and perhaps the Big Three. ♦_ AU of which is apparent from the news that the subject of one inch more or less of the .female knee has been causing huddles and de bates in Washington. Whether or not to lengthen skirts has been agi tating the Civilian Price Control ad ministration and its advisory com mittees no end.• The advisory committee have suggested that Washington' permit skirts to be an inch longer, but CPA has been extra cautious. Even a half inch more of leg may mean millions of ■ yards of skirt material. Hence the committee sessions,, administration conferences, policy makers’ huddles and frantic de bates among national leaders, lob byists, congressmen, etc.»_ President Truman’s “Hold the Linel ” ultimatum may be taken as applying to the kneecap of Amer ican womanhood. (Harry has not personally made any public an nouncement of his convictions on knees. But unofficially he is said to believe them a good thing for the nation.—Ed. note.) *_ But the news that they figure in OPA ceilings, inflation problems, etc., and that OPA and CPA are in fact right to milady’s boudoir, and that Chet Bowles thinks the legs of our women are definitely involved in the war to stop runaway inflation comes as news to most people.' * The United States Agricultural Department’s Division of Marketing and Transportation Research inci dentally reports that the length of skirts is a barometer for depres sions and prosperity.

VA Receives Carload Of Mpil Daily From Vets A total of 2,100,000 veterans of World War II are how making pre mium payments on National Serv ice Life insurance by direct mail to the Veterans administration. This total does not include premiums paid by deductions from benefit payments. . A total of 897,214 letters concern ing insurance were received by the VA through February and March covering all categories of questions such as refunds, conversions, re instatements and status of accounts, and of this number the VA during the 8 Weeks, answered a total of 783,055 of these letters. Because of this tremendous volume, of mail there were some 266,000 letters un answered and because so many thousands of the letters are not accompanied by proper identification, it has been impossible to post accounts currently. Questions and Answers Q. I was inducted into the army in 1942 and was discharged 2 months and 12 days laiter on a disability discharge. I have tried to get com pensation, but the VA claims it has been delayed because of insuf ficient records. I then filed a claim for such to clear -my records. In 1939, prior to my induction I bad in ternal hemorrhages, from both kid neys, but I was passed as physical ly fit in 1941 by army doctors. Oh entering service my kidneys were weakened more by hurting them again for which I was discharged. Now the question is, am I entitled to this compensation?. I signed up on the 14th of January and have been out of work 3 months.—J. D. C., Superior, Wis. A. Caifnot tell from your letter whether you are attempting to get a disability pension or unemploy ment compensation. From the facts given, you may be entitled to disa bility compensation and youronlyre- course is to apply again or take an appeal. As for readjustment allow ance, are you able to work? The laws says you must be able to work and available for suitable work; that you must not have left suitable work voluntarily and without good cause and you must have applied for suitable work. Suggest you ask the USES office for all details. Q. How old will they take a man in the occupation army? A man in service 10 months, how can he draw this $20 per week?—J. D., Corydon, Ind. A. Enlistment age limits are 17 through 34. If you are unemployed and were discharged under condi tions other than dishonorable you can apply for .unemployment com pensation at your nearest office of U. S. Employment service and you may obtain up to $20 per week, for not more than 52 weeks under cer tain conditions. Q. I was discharged from ASF regional hospital, Ft. McClellan, Ala., November 6, 1945, with a dis ability discharge on account of back trouble and .Iiwant to know if I can get into the merchant marines. Was only in the army two months and the disability was pot from service.—C. V. R., Charlottesville, Va. A. Suggest your best answer can be obtained by applying to the near est merchant marines recruiting of fice and see if they will take you. Q. I am a veteran of World War I in service six months, not over seas. Just ready to go when Armis tice was signed. Could I get hos pital service free? Also do all war veterans get a pension after they are 60 or 65 years old?—F. S., Peca- toniea, III. A. You probably are eligible for hospital service free if you are un able to pay for it. World War I veterans obtained a bonus. There is no pension. Q. My son will be in the navy two years in June.' He is a store keeper 3/c and was overseas 19 months. Conld yon tell me when he will be eligible for discharge?— Mrs. B. R., Milton, Pa. A. Ordinarily he likely would be .eligible to'apply for discharge by June 30. However, he may be held up for a short time since storekeepers and some other. classifications rate a higher point score. Q. My husband has an honorable discharge since December 7, 1945. How does the G.I. Bill work? We would like' to have $2,000; How much interest does it take and how do we pay it back? We are planning to bnild a home, since they are hard to rent,—A Good Reader, Union, Mo. A. Would suggest your husband go to a bank or . other lending in stitution which makes G.I. loans and they will give IUm all details and inform him as to his eligibility since in the final analysis, the bank must approve the loan.

RELEASE TBE STORY THUS FAR: Jane re- turned from the cabin, and Jim told her he bad phoned Ibe sheriff to come and get Sherwin. Jane turned white. She mounted again and rode off, Jlm after her. Sooo they could see Stenhart and the sheriff racing ahead, Jim n«aMy stopped Jane's horse. Sherwin was standing on a cliff, Stenbart crawling along a ledge. Sherwin waited, sadden* Iy he confronted his cousin. Then Steo- hart crumpled, reeled backward and fell over the ledge. He was caught by a dwarfed tree, Ump but not dead. Sher- win looked” down and In that moment came the turning point He uncoOed a rope, tied It and began to descend the cliff. CHAPTER X He sought a foothold, a crevice, and found one where the tree had rooted, a wide fissure in the-wall of rock. He swung toward it, got his foot into it, and, holding thus to the rope and the cliff, reached down and laid his hand on Stenhart’s body, He thought he was still conscious, for his heavy eyelids quivered, but he lay there, a dead weight. Swiftly, cautiously, Sierwin wound the rope around his body and made it secure under the armpits, balancing him self on a foothold so narrow that a touch might hurl him down. Then, grasping the slack of the rope, he began to climb. The ledge seemed a thousand feet above him, but,' at last, he lay on-its brink, gasping. He heard sounds, now other than the cataract, the crashing of boughs, voices! He took no heed of them, for, as he rose to his feet, he saw the tree that supported Stenhart go down and the motionless body swing out on the end of the rope. Sherwin braced himself and began to haul him up by main strength. Slowly; surely, he drew his enemy out of the abyss, steadied him at the edge of the rock, brought him safe over and laid him down. His own muscles ached and his head swam, but Sten- hart still'breathed. He opened his eyes and looked up in Sherwin’s face. Sheer terror leaped into his eyes, but he was spent, helpless; his white lips moved, but only one word came in a whisper. - "Water!” A mountain spring was trickling close at hand, and Sherwin cupped the water in his hands and wet his face and lips, and again Stehhart tried to speak; but, as his rescuer, bent to listen, heavy hands fell upon him and there was a shout of tri umph. "Get him, Sheriff!” Sherwin, on his knees beside the injured man, looked up to find the posse closing in. He shook off the man who had grasped him and rose to his feet jpst as Jim Keller panted up the trail. “Hold on,' Cutler!” Jim cried, "that man saved Stenhart—I saw him—at the risk of his own life!” “Ain’t taking no chances, Mr. Kel ler. Here you, Adams, you hand cuff hini; he’s the man we’re after!” Stierwin offered no resistance; he submitted with an iron composure. He had thrown away his dear- bought liberty to save Stenhart. "I reckon he can walk, after all,” said the sheriff. “How you feeling now, Mr. Stenhart?” Stenhart tried to stand upright, but his eyes had met Sherwin’s and his mouth went dry. He wei his lips, shaking all over. “We’d better carry him,” said Jim. “Cheer up, old chap, you’re sound, no bones broken!” “I can walk,” said Stenhart thickly, leaning heavily on Jim. “The ledge is mighty narrow; can you manage without help, Mr. Keller?” The sheriff was solicitous for the man who had helped him make his capture. “Oh, we’ll do!" JIm threw a supporting arm around Stenhart. It was on the tip of his tongue to tell the men to go ahead with the prisoner and bring help from the ranch and a car for the injured man, but he remembered Jane; he must go first himself. The' thought impelled Jim to look back at Sherwin, and some thing in his white face made him recoil at the sight of his bound hands. He beckoned Cutler to him. “Is it. necessary—I mean, those handcuffs? By Jove, I saw what he did; he’s a brave man!” - The sheriff nodded grimly. “Can’t' take chances, Mt. Keller, he’s a jail- breaker; swore he was goin’ to kill Stenhart. I ain’t so all-fired clear in my mind what .he meant to do with him anyways—he had him all trussed up with that rope!!’' . They .began the descent slowly. Jim, supporting Stenhart, went ahead; behind came the sheriff, then the men bringing Sherwin. A heavy cloud had risen in the west; its purple edges were sweeping up ward. The sunlight went out and, as they entered the steep trail, thunder rolled deeply across the hills. ' The way, narrow and difficult, grew dim with the darkness of the approach ing storm. Stenhart, weak and stunned from his fall, stumbled and set the stones rolling and tumbling ahead of them. “Steady, old chap,” said Jim, and his supporting arm tightened. It seemed to him that Stenhart suf fered with some trouble of the mind as deep as the stiffness of his body; not once had he lifted his dark eyes to look ahead of him, and he was ghastly pale. Jim, glancing back at the steep path, saw the feet of the men following them before he .saw their bodies. The sheriff came next; Sherwin, he knew, was last—with his guards. Overhead the trees locked their branches- now, and a dense thicket surrounded them. They could hear the cataract less distinctly, but the rush of wind in the. tree-tops made a tumult. Jim, steadying Stenhart, spoke slowly in his ear: “I saw you—you and Sherwin,” he said quietly. “I w.as out in the road; there’s an opening in the trees —one glimpses the ravine. How did you come to fall in that way, Max?” Stenhart roused himself; he lifted his head and tried , to meet Jim’s questioning eyes, but he wavered and gasped. “I—he was going to kill me!” he said Wealdy; “that was it I re member now, Sherwin was going to kill me.” Stenhart passed his hand over his eyes with a groping gesture. “I.can’t understand it,” he mut tered; “he was going to kill me— he hates me!’* “Then, by heaven, he did a great thing—he risked-his lifb for his worst “Sangre de Criste!” she whis pered, awed, “it is a judgment—his dreams,. his terrible dreams!” enemy! Are you sure, old chap, quite sure—that he was guilty?” Stenhart’s face-took on. an ashy whiteness, his lips shook. “I tell yon he did it!” he cried wildly. “I— oh, my God, what lightning!” The heavens had been torn by a jagged flash, the dark woods were, for an instant, ablaze with it; then the roar of thunder rolled crashing around them, echoed from height to height. . Jim, trying to steady him, was suddenly swung aside by the other man’s blind agony of terror; the fall had broken his nerve—he was al most hysterical. The rain began to fall in a torrent -and Jim, trying to catch up with him again, came abreast of a windswept thicket. He heard the men behind scrambling and shouting and thought of Jane. He had made her stay behind; was she out there still, holding the horses? He grasped Stenhart again and they came to the last lap of the descent. It was dusk in the trail and the rain blinded, but sudden ly there was a tongue of flame from the thicket, a sharp report, and Sten hart crumpled up and sagged into Jim’s arms. At first he did not sense what had happened; it seemed a part of the tempest, of Stenhart’s utter collapse', and then he felt something warm and wet on his hands and knew it was blood: “Good God, he’s shot!” Jim gasped. Then he shouted, but his voice wits cut off by a volley of shots. The men behind- had been quicker than he; they were crash ing -into the thicket. . ’ Stenhart, meanwhile, hung heav ily against, him. “He’s got me this time,” he murmured. “I’m shot, Jim!” He thought it was Sherwin. "But the sheriff came up, panting. “Hit you, did he? Here, Adams, you hold up Mr. Stenhart. I want you—” he hurried Jim;—“we killed th’ fellow who did it, caught him running—” - , They pushed into the thicket, rain dripping from, their hats and soak ing their clothes. Two of the-posse were bending down over a pros trate figure. The dead man had fallen face downward, but they' rolled him over and Jim saw his distorted face.“It’s Jordan,” he said soberly. “He meant to get me—I’m afraid poor Max is done for!” “By George, then we’ve killed two' birds with one stone—we’ve, got the' outlaW and the escaped convict in one bagl Sorry about; Mr. Stenhart—maybe the. men had better make a stretcher for him, eh?” “Some one’s got to go to the ranch and ‘get a car—I—” 'Jim. stopped short; he. saw Jane coming. Shie ran to him and clung about his neck, forgetful of the quarrel. “Oh, Jim, I thought you were hurt or—” her voice trailed; she knew that it was not Sherwin, for she had seen him standing grimly between his guards. Jim pointed to Jordan. “It’s done with, Jane; I’m going to have the poor devil decently buried. Jane, ride back to Las Palomas, get Mac to send the- big car and—if she can come through this, send Fanny. I’m afraid poor Max got it bad, he’s collapsed—be quick!” “Jim!” she clung to him. whisper ing, “you know,what he did—Sher win, I mean—don’t let them take him away! Do something;, say some thing! Oh, Jim, you—you must!” Jim loosed her arms from: his neck . “Look here, girlie. I’ll prom ise to do all I can, but, for heaven’s sake, get out of this quick—get a car. Stenhart may be dying—it may mean a lot .to all of us., Quick!” “Jim, I must speak to him—” Her brother caught her sternly by, the arm and dragged her to the end of the thicket. “Now—go!” he said, “or—I swear I’ll have him sent off now!” Jane caught the look on his face and saw beyond him the death-like face of Stenhart, leaning against two deputies, only partly conscious. “He’s all in!” cried Jim. “Can’t you see? Beat it!” The girl, half crying, ran. out into the road. The storm had nearly spent itself and she loosed Tex from the sapling where she had tied him, and springing into the saddle, turned bis head homeward. Her heart reproached her for the relief she felt. When she heard the shots she had thought only of Sher win and her brother; Jordan had slipped out of her mind. She imag ined Sherwm still bent oh revenge, though tlie miracle of that rescue seemed to lift him above such a thought. They were both safe! Poor Max—well, die could pity him, yet, if he knew he had sworn to a lie about his cousin, wasn't it a judg ment of God? In a strange tumult of feeling she galloped home, but, Sll the while, she seemed- to vision Sherwin going down into the abyss to save the life of his foe! “My heart, you are dripping!” Teresa , cried, seizing her' as she dropped from the saddle; but Jane scarcely heard her. “Call Mac!” she said sharply, panting, her hands clasped .tightly against her breast. “And you* Fan ny, yo.u’ve got to go in the car-^Jor- dan tried to shoot Jim and wounded Stenhart; they’re afraid he’s dy ing—” “Fanny, suddenly white, gasped. “Jim’s safe?” Jane nodded, at last aware of old Teresa. The little brown woman dropped on her knees, crossing her self. .. . “Sangre de vCriste!” she whis pered, awed, “it is a judgment—his dreams, his terrible dreams!” Jane looked down at her,..white- lipped; it was her own thought voiced again. She shivered. Fanny had sped upon her errand, and she was alone with the little old peon wom an. The wind swept over them and she looked up; storm-clouds, black and threatening, were rolling around them and the shining peaks were swathed in a mantle of. purple. Now and then a red flash tore Uie black mist asunder, as though some hid den furnace was belching-fire in the midst of the canyons. Jane, who knew that Sherwin had given up his hope of freedom to save a life, felt suddenly a thrill of utter pride and thankfulness; nothing inattered so much as that he had cleansed his soul! They brought Stenhart: back to Las Palomas through the driving storm. The wind, was snapping branches off -the great trees Uhd whipping the r ain across the long slope in mighty gusts. The big-car came swiftly, followed by the drip ping horses and men of the posse. Jane, watching from the veranda, saw Stenhart’s white - face, and closed eyes as they bore him in, but her own gaze was following the drenched figures going down to ,the men’s : quarters, ■ She made out Sherwin’s tall head, and then the others'-closed up about him. ... She drew, a quick breath of relief; he was here—Jim had not let ’ them hurry him away.Then, ,she was aware of other things. She, her self, had telephoned for a doctor, but it would be two hours or more before he could reach them; -mean while Jim and Cutler had carried the'wounded man in' and laid him on his bed. Fanny, quiet, competent, greatly concemed,.was doing all she could; Stenhart had lost conscious ness, but now, under her ministra tions, he was slowly coming back to himself. Mechanically, Jane obeyed the young nurse’s behests, helping as best she could.' Fanny, quietly and deftly at work, suddenly saw the girl’s face, and she went over to Jim. He was standing by the door helplessly, staring at Stenhart. “Take Jane away,” Fanny, whispered to him, her lrind eyes grave and admonishing. “She’s borne a good deal today. I can do it all now—until the doctor comes; if h e comes in time.”Jim's face fell. “You think—?” She nodded. “He's. going. to diet Jim,.slowly—perhaps it will be bad) —take her away.” ■ .

FINDING A NEW SENSE 1 OF VALDES LESSON TEXT—Luke 12:19, 20; 18:2440; 19:1*10.MEMORY SELECTION—TCie kingdom of God is not meat and drink; but righteous* ness, and peace, and Joy in the Holy Ghost —'Romans 14:1?* : Money, riches, possessions—that’s what men are- living and . striving for in our day: It is going to seem a bit' strange, but it will be very salutary to stress once again the eternal truth, best summarized by our Lord Jesus, when he said, “A man’s . life coiwisteth not in the abundance of the things which he possesseth” (Luke 12:15). I. Don’t Depend on Riches (12:19, 20 ). The rich man increased in selfish ness as he increased in wealth. He began to feel secure because he had laid up much goods. Now he-be came proud and boastful. . He thought he saw. years of comfort and ease ahead. Evidently , he had not read, o r' did not believe, the. words of Scripture, “Boast not thy self of tomorrow; for thou knowest not what a day may bring forth” (Prov. 27:1; see also James 4:13- W>.Well, can a man depend on riches? The answer is no. They are here today and gone tomorrow. Man himself is here today and gone tomorrow. When he goes, he leaves all that he has unless he has invest ed it for God. Money is like a broken, reed: The' man who leans on it will not only fall, but will pierce himself through With many, sorrows (I. Tim. 6:9,10). Don’t depend on riches—they will miserably fail you in your hour of need. n . Beware of the Snare of Riches (18:24-27). . The rich young ruler had come running to Jesus to seek eternal life, but had turned away sorrowful When he found" that a man cannot love money and love God at the same time. Jesus improved ;the opportunity to point'out that it is irnpossible for a rich man to be saved, except as the grace of God gets hold of him and sets him free from dependence on his wealth. Apart ffom the grace of God, it is so easy for a rich man' or woman to trust in riches, and to feel no need of God. Look again at I Timothy 6:9, 10 and you will see that, even the de sire to be rich leads a man into a temptation and a snare. 1The man of God is ,warned to “flee these things; and follow after righteousness, godliness, faith, love, patience, meekness,’.’ and thus to be able to “fight the good fight of faith” (I Tim.: 6:11, 12)... ; We repeat that "all this has. a strange sound to modern ears, so. accustomed to the worldly philos ophy of trust in things-and in dot-, lars. We need to warn our young men- and women about the awful’ danger of. Ioving thoney. There is something infinitely bet ter than riches, and that is what we find in our next ppint. Hf. Seek True Riches In Christ (18: 28-30). , . Peter and. therother disciples had' forsaken all' the things of the world to follow fihrist, and now as'he re-; minds-thp Lord fi£ that, fact,-he re*; ceives the assurance that there is a .higher level of riches, and reward; for the loyal disciple. ■ - God will never be in debt to any one. There, is -qo sacrifice made for his glory which does hot find its! glorious recompense, and no bur-: den borne for his sake which does " npt bring - its rich reward. All this is hot the result of some kind of a “deal” with God. We do. not serve him because we expect a: Reward, but the-assurance .of the re- ward is there to encourage -and spur ’ us on in life and service for him. \ The fabt iS, spiritual currency has far higher value than the gold and; silver of this world;, • • ‘ a IV. Ask Christ to Deliver You? From Riches (19:1-10). Zacchaeus was a man well versed.' in the. devious ways of the extor-N tioner. He knew'money, and how; to make it. But he was not satis:, fied.

And that signature marks a milestone of some kind, for this reporter believes that de spite the'fact that we have a week- kneed, supine congress, the law win mark the turning' point in govern? ment relations with labor abuses. This so-called PetriUo bill is a slap on the wrist 'for Mr. James Caesar Petrilio, bead of the musi cians’ union, but it eliminates abuses in only- one industry, “featherbed ding” in the radio industry. It permits • the same-abuses to be prac ticed by Mr,. PetriUo in other indus tries '. . . notably motion pictures and theaters, and it leaves other unions free to perform the same practices that Mr. PetrtBo is pun ished for in the radio industry. For instance, the law says that Mr. PetriUo cannot levy a royalty or a tax von phonograph records used, for broadcasting, but the union can stffi levy this royalty on every record you play in your home. Mr. John L. Lewis is at this very mo ment seeking to levy a tonnage tax on every ton of coal, 10 cents a ton, to provide a huge fund for his min ers’ union. But Mr. Lewis is free to do that since the “anti-Petrfflo” ,law doesn’t apply to the miners’ union. ' But a congress, which gave in to political expediency in its worst sense, and played checkers with the security of. the nation' in the emasculated draft bffl, and which indi cated such utter stupidity and dis regard for the welfare and opinions ;of the rank and file of the American people in passage of the vivisected OPA bffi in the house, probably could not be expected to take up the abuses of labor union leaders to one feU swoop. • Unions Are Necessary ‘ Your Home Town Reporter be- Ueves in labor unions. They are necessary in our American way of life, since without them the Amer ican workers would be at the mercy of -greedy employers. Were it not for labor unions, a man’s toff would stffi be a commodity to be bought and sold, to be used or disregarded at the whim of any capitalist. But the abuse of these benefits which have been granted to labor by cer tain labor bosses and in which these bosses even defy the government of the United States, should most def initely be curbed. PubUc opinion polls indicate that the rank and file of the American people hold to this opinion and the folks who live In the small towns; and the rural areas are particularly incensed at prac tices and unlicensed affrontery of some of these leaders. : The- Case bffi, -approved: here.by some of the farm, organizations, will die aborning, in the senate and in the senate labor committee. A' ma jority of'this committee has had the temerity to propose, a measure which would punish unions seeking, to extort money from, farmers by coercion or. .force, and- tj> prevent farmers' front • transporting 'perishable faim 'products to; market. .• . This has happened in Pennsyl' vania, In NeW York, and in other sections^ whereini . farmers’ tracks have been overturned, or the farm er has beeb, forced to pay tribute to unions to drive, bis truck of priid- uce into the matket place. But what .about -the farmer wbo seeksjto transport nonperishable products? Why not lnclnde that in the bffi for it is most’ certainly as' wrong for unions to prohibit the hauling of logs to market'as it is .to levy tribute for letfiicei' And why not at the same time protect others besides farmers? ^v - A Tribvtielon Epery Ton Now the entire country is just about to pay tribute to John L.

Iw an tto say amen to almost every word he said. I am oyer 84 years old and near the sunset of life, so let: me tell you a few things I know a- bout liquor in Davie County. In the siunmer of 1883 I work ed for a man in Davie who had been having drunken tremors. He said he saw hom ed devils in the tree tops in his yard who scream ed and hollowed. He told me he was going to quit stilling. He sold his com to one of die officers of the county and they paid him in liquor. So he did not quit and soondied. I had * dear old uncle when I was a boy, who came to see my father and told him that it wasn’t any harm to drink a dram. . So when he got old and on his death bed die dram drinker sat by his bed and pressed the botde to his dying body. The same crowd Iet his body slip out of the wagon and had to go back about 8 miles and get his body, and had no plank to cover his grave. Now Mt. Stroud, please tell Rev. Mr. Fink if he does get any offer, that I want to meet him at one place and help him, because evil in high places where men are in authority, is so detrimental. RICHARD EATON. Mocksville, R. 2, T. A.

Uw THE DAVlE RECORD, MOCKSVILLE N, C.. UAY 22 1946 The H istory of C offee The fragrant cup of coffee which makes us civil every morning and renews us so often during the day Oinks many nations in a long and iron antic history. Just when it first •appeared as a beverage no one can say exactly. But that it was an Ara bian discovery seems very likely In view of the fact that coffee grew wild in that part of the world, before ffte ninth century after Christ, and fanciful Arabian nights tales have been handed down about the first brew. The most popular legend concerns Kaldi, an Arabian goatherd, whose dull life on the hillside made him '« gloomy Joe indeed, But he picked and ate some of the berries his goats were fond of nibbling, because he noticed that after eating these ber ries, the goats became gay creatures. Kaidi himself became a new man. Thereafter coffee berries were indis pensable to his diet, and so carefree and lively did he become that he often joined his goats in a merry dance. A monk, to whom Kaldi confided his experiences, prepared a drink from the beans and served it to the members of his order. They found the beverage sustained their energy and helped them to pray and medi tate longer, so they adopted the drink and cultivated the plant. Gradually the popularity of the beverage spread to Turkey, where, in 1S54, the first public coffee house was established. It was introduced to the Venetians in 1615, the Vkanch in 1644, the English and Viennese in 1650, and it was brought to North America in 1668. But promptly the power of Uie beverage to stimulate dear thinking and plain talking con verted the popular coffee houses into discussion dubs. And political, de bate that exploded into dissension, direct action and resistance made coffee houses the targets of tyrants like CHiarles n of England, who termed them seminaries of sedition. But, according to Disradi, Limdon and Paris coffee houses of the seven teenth and eighteenth centuries held the mirror to "the manners, the morals and the politics of a people.'' Here in colonial United States, too, the coffee house became the meeting house of the town fathers, and after a time changed from purely social centers to focal points of merchant trade and political discussion. Daniel W ebster called Boston’s Green Dragon Coffee House "the headquar ters of the American Bevolution.'' The Dutch took the coffee plant to South America back around 1718, with a result that every sixth grader knows. Today's coffee plantations in Pan-America produce three-fourths of the world’s coffee. And because we are the world’s greatest coffee drinkers, of course we’re the biggest customers far the Pan-American yield. All previous invoices were topped in 1945, when the United States imported 20,279,690 bags of coffee, each containing 132 pounds! R E D CROSS HOME NURSING ARE YOU AS SMART AS YOUR BABY? IrirTfHWny/ when your baby cries do you fly into a panic, wring your hands and wonder, ''Oh dear, what can the matter be?” Try giving him a bottle of water if he cries between feeding times. He might only be thirsty. Or loosen his clothing so that he can move freely. Your baby’s cries are, not always a sign of serious trouble. He just wants to tell you that he needs attention. w hen jack refuses his carro ts do you angrily force him to eat them or threaten, "I'll take you to the doctor un less you do?” A wise mother would substitute another food of equal value or gradually teach him to like carrots by feed-. ing them to him in small amounts.

We pro vide work now or lose what our young men bought with their lives.Something to Avoid Mass unemployment In' this coun try might easily start a revolution among industrial workers that would overthrow the republic and destroy our very American way of life. It is the one catastrophe to be feared by the whole people of America. War's end touched off much talk ’about post-war legisla tion but all of it is relatively un important except what has to do with gainful employment. Legislative acts that merely promise work to service men are nothing but emotional brainstorms. Jobs nave to pay their own way to be worth having. Since 15,000 men will lay down arms every day for 14 months, one of three tilings must happen: (I) Private industry must expand and make room for them, (2 ) Government will make a big WPA for them or (3) Want will bring desperation. ’ Good Tax Laws First A hungry and outraged people rush mob-like to dictatorship. An army-size WPA marches with slave like steps to the same destination. Well paid jobs in private industry with opportunity for improvement rad advancement constitute the only work fit for a free people. It is'the only solution worthy of America’s clean record. Industry must expand and make jobs. It is toe only way to remain free. Only one thing stands in toe way —foxes/ Expanding industry, enough ,to make toe needed jobs, calls for investments Whicjt (same as jobs) have to pay. Today’s taxes, however, make it impossible to find a paying investment that will make jobs. The tax laws were all right in 1940 when they were passed to take the profit out of war. Nowtoey threaten to. ruin our future by tak- . ing' toe prosperity out of peace. A Simple Tax Plan It is my conviction that corpora tion taxes and standard individual taxes should be levied at toe same rate. I think toe structure should be high enough to meet, toe require ments of the proposed budget without having any surtaxes higher than 50%. For an investor to pay out more than half his income in taxes will discourage large investments— toe very kind needed. . With a few specific exceptions I oppose excise taxes and consider it wrong in principle to tax distributed income of corporations’more than once. Excess profits taxes should be eliminated immediately. A fair tax policy, and certainly an expedi ent one; will encourage capital in vestments for profit In going con cerns rather than in government brads.

Walter E. Iseohour. Efiddeoite. N. C. The masses of mankind seem far more willing to support the wrong cause than the right, even though the wrong caase curses them, while the right cause blesses them, or would bless them. A movie star re ceives many, many times the sal ary that a preacher of the Gospel receives, and ot course her life and work is a tremendous curse, while that of the true preacher of the Gos pel is blessing. Many professed Christians give far more to the cause of God. Others spend far more for tobacco than they spend toward Christianizing the world. Their tobacco bill runs far into the dollars per year, while they give a few pennies, nickels and’ dimes to the church. One liquor store, or beer joint, in a town may take in more money than several churches. The influ ence of the liquor store and beer joint is indeed a great cuTSe, while that of the church is a blessing with the right preacher as pastor, and with the right congregation as followers. It seems to be no trou ble to carry on a business that :is a curse, when it is considered from financial standpoint, but very hard and and difficult to carry any thing that is a blessing. The wrong cause has an overwhelming finan cial support, while the right cause suffers and suffers for support. We have seen churches started in both country and town, and for the lack of finances the wotk goes on veiy slowly, or stands and stands, while in the meantime a theatre goes up in a little while, which may cost several times that of the ihurch, We wonder why people are so willing to put their money into a cause that is a curse, and give it so treely and lavishly, but so unwilling to give to the cause that is a blessing I suppose, how ever, it is because the world loves the things of the world rather than God. The wonder is that God would be so merciful toward those who take that which belongs to Him and give it to the devil. It never, uever pays an indivi- vidnal or a nation to support the wrong cause. There is always a penalty that has to be paid for go ing wrong instead of right.' Men and nations have to reap what they sow. If they indulge their appe. tites, or give of their means to gra. tify the lust of the eyes and the pride of life, they have to pay for it dearly sometime, somewhere It is a deplorable fact. Trne Prophecy Some years ago when It was fash, ionable In economic circles to de strop food by government order, including the burning of wheat fields when it was found the farm er had planted a half acre or so be. yond his quota, a few people warn ed that such a thing was a viola tion of nature's laws and a defiance of Providence. They warned that the punish, ment would, he famine It has arrived—world famine, for the hungry of the world will call fori will demand every ounce of food in America. Already there are suggestions, demands, that America go back on food rationing. and included is a call for rationing ot bread. That is something that the Uni ted States bas never seen. It may see uot only the rationing of br-ad, but lack of bread to back the rat ion stamps' The whea burners had their day, the-match being applied to grain standing in the fields. This is another day. What have they to say to those who predicted fam ine? Charlotte Observer. Not Merely Local Lexington Dispatch The Chicago Sun, perhaps the leading Democratic newspaper of the Middle West, takes note of Monroe and Charlotte, to the at. tention of President Truman In making a choice to fill the current vacancy on the United States su preme court. And it comments that the President could do far worse than to name the distin guished North Carolinian. The ad vocacy, is evidence that it is not merely a-local pride that has caused many editorial writers in the South east to urge his appointment. Con tinuing, The Sun says: “Judge Parker was the victim of historic injustice when- be wrs no minated for the supreme court by President Hoover in 1930 but- de nied confirmation by the Senate Labor and liberal groups, which successfully opposed him, have had cause, very often, to regret tbeir blunder. His record on the Appellate Court is enlghteued and vigorously progressive, and there is much to be said for the princi ple that a democracy, of all forms of government, should rectify er rors against its citizens. The principle would be admirably ex pressed If Judge Parker should be renamed for the post of honor onoe denied him.’’ Which prompted the Winston. Salem Journal to comment as fol. iows: “The Son editorial comment is significant in that it attests to the fact that the wrong which was done Judge Parker in 1930 recognized throughout the country, not mere. Iy in the South, and his liberalism acknowledged by some of the lead ing iiberal newspapers of twe Na tion. It is sincerely to be hoped that President truman will not up the opportunity, to undo, as far as possible this late in time the grave injnstice which victimized one of the greatest jurists of our time.’’ Giitse of Revolt Attempts to assay the cause of the tremendous revolt in the House of Representatives against the OPA with passage of a bill reducing its powers and limiting its life to nine months by a vote of 35s to 42, gen. erally boil down to describing it as a battle between wild inflationists and desperate hold the-liue forces. Now, nobody except a few .shal low brained speculators and greedy irresponsible producers waut infla tion. To say that capital’ or business man want it is ridiculous; wealth is the first thing wiped out by infla tion. Sober, constructive manutactur- ers don’t want it; after a few months of drunken enrichment they would be ruined. The rebellion was due to a grow ing belief that the OPA has been stifling production, lack of which is the prime cause; indeed' the. only cause of inflation. v People have patiently waited (or the (foods they neided and their representatives felt that somehow OPA was responsible for the iack or was contributing to it. And they voted to remedy de fects both in the price control act which in their judgment, have been interfering with production and, therefore, inviting inflation to come on do its worst.—Cbariotte Observet.

The stage is being set for a re peat performance of the “Tragic Era” in the South, and we can on* Iy hope that ccol heads will some how intervene to call off the per fortnance before it has aroused once again the passions and hatreds, which have been slowly dying In that region for a half century: Until a month or six weeks ago it was possible to predict a new and enlightened era south of the Mas- ou-Dixon line. Democracy was ex periencing a rebirth there. Genu- ine. American liberalism was gain ing ground as Negroes were 'more and mote of their rights as citi zens, labor ,unions were slowly ex. ercising their right to organize, newspapers' were preaching toler ance, and the Bilbos were losing their popularity. But within the last few weeks the two great unions, Impatient of the slow but healthy progress they had been making, announced huge organization drives in which they proposed to battle not only the em plovers but each other as well. The natural antagonism of southerners against outside interference with tbeir affairs was aroused by a deal between the unions and the govern ment by whicb special priorities would be given union representa tion elections in the South. Then came an even greater threat to peaceful progress toward democ racy in the South. Here and theie the fiery cross and the silly but frfghteniny white sheets of the Eu Klux Elan began to appear again, and the Elan made it clear that it also was engaged ih an organiza tion drive., Wbat will happen to the liberal movement in the Southi caught be tween battling labor barons and the Klaul is unpredictable. But the outlook is for plenty of reol trouble and a setback in democracy. Not Afraid Of Planes J B. Ivery, a prominent Char. Iotte merchant, says that on a re cent trip to California to visit bis daughter “against the advice and wishes of my wife and a number of friends, I boarded an airplane and flew to California. They kept re. mindiog me, where would I be if something happened to the plane while a mile or so up in the air? Statistics of insurance companies show it more dangerous to ride in an automobile than on an airplane,” he said. G. I. Loans By F. R. LeagaDs. Connty Veterans Ser vice Officer. A.large number of W orld W ar n Veterans appear to be greatly disappointed by their inability to obtain a G. I. Guaranteed Loan. These disappointments are caused mainly by die veterans not being familiar with tl^e legal require ments for a G. L Loan. The vet eran in many instances sees quite a different picture upon applying for a loan than had been painted for him upon his leaving the ser vice. Any veteran desiring infor mation regarding a loan is asked to see the County Service Officer or Mr. Knox Johnstone at Bank of Davie. Mr. Johnstone has been very co-operative in working with the Service Officer and assisting veterans in obtaining- loans on borh real and personal property, and with their financial problems in general. Government guaranteed loans may be obtained by qualified vet erans to purchase homes, farms, business property or trucks, autos, and tools and machinery for busi ness purposes. The maximum a- mount of the loan though cannot be greater than the appraised nor mal value of the property. The appraisal is made by a Vetetans Administration appraiser and at present inflated values the apprais ed value is in most cases much lower than the seller asks for the property. The Veterans Admin istration will not guarantee a loan if the veteran is being charged a higher price for the property than its appraised value. A business loan may be obtain ed to purchase the property, fix tures, etc., but cannot be used as working capital to purchase goods for resale. The full amount of the G. L Guaranteed loan must be paid by the lending agency di rect to the person from whom the property is purchased and none of the loan is received in cash by the veterans. It’s A Joke Celebrating his- 62nd birthday, President Truman had a “business as usual” attitude. It mav have been as nsual for him but for the country, wallowing in a stagnated mess of strikes and shutdowns, it was far from usual. The country hasn't had business as usual for sevetai years and tbe prospect Is for less;, actually for less; actually for none at all. In. dustry is closing down, transporta tion is for less; actually for none at all. Industry is closing down, transportation is preparing for a big funeral, and in general tbe na. tion is slowly committing economic suicide. Busmes as usual—that’s a joke, son, but tbe President doesn't know it. It would be funny if it weren't tragic.—Charlotte Obser ver. Cost Of Strikers To Workers It is interesting to form an antho- ritative source what strikes have cost the workers measured bv the time it will take them to make up the loss. TheJantiaryissneof the Official Monthly .Survey published by fhe American Federation of La bor, points out that if workers earning $1.00 an hour are offered ah increase of 12c by their employ er, but go 00 strike and stay out for eight weeks in' order to obtain an increase of 18c. they will lose $358 in pay (eight weaks ot 40 hours at $1.12); and that tbe 6c in crease obtaioed by the strike will not repay this loss for nearly three years. If tl.e strike obtains only 3c more than the employer offers, nearly six years will be required to make up for the loss.—Ex.

Hemy Pulls “Boner” Patents are devices for reward ing inventors for their geniuses and labors. Henrv A Wallace, Secretary of Commerce, believe it or not, one rime secretary of agricnltufe and feeder of tbe little pigs to the fish es, is out" with a plan to destroy the patent system and give every petentlal theif a chance to share the loot. At the same time, tbe outlook for the American way of life will be shot into the place from which the New Deal came. Henry is no eredit to the Tru- man administration. He was no credit to the Roosevelt administra tion. He is no credit to the Unit ed States of America. Tbe patent system has been an a. mazing contributor to the develop, ment of the greatness of America. By reason of it, millions of jobs have been created for Amesican wake earners. Tbe average Ameri can enjoys more comforts, more c nveniences and tbe average A- merican lives bettei than the aver age citizen of any other nation on earth. The patent system explains this happy condition. ’ Henry A Wallace has a huncte that everybody onght to have whafF anybody else finds agreeable! whether they want it or not. Bej- canse some people have ideas thait prove profit Ne, Henry would deny them the fruits of their geni us and industry. Well, that’s the way to level off. The grave is Henry’s ultimate goal. There only does one find absolute equality.—From tbe Somerset (Pa.) Daily American. Reading ’Em Out Of Major Parties Secretary Wallace was just a lit tle impatient in wanting to read tbe rebels out of tbe major politi cal parties. Tbe “reading out” is done at home by party members, and they are just as likely to en* dorse the rebels and read out the party as they are the other way a- round, The progressive rebels read the GOP out In 1912. A simi Iar fate can happen to tbe Demo cratic party, if it becomes Wal lace top-heavy.—Ex. Notice To Creditors. Having qualified as Ezecator of the last Will of A. M.

Lewis confided his strike strategy to a friend the other day as follows: ‘‘Before yon can get action, yon’ve got to have a crisis. And in any crisis, someone’s - nerve has got to crack. I al ways bet that I can hold ont longer than the government or the operators.. My nerve won’t crack first.”» » » GOP CONGRESSMAN REWARDEDFew congressmen have enjoyed a higher rating at the White House in the last two decades than hard hitting Richard J. Welch of Califor nia, a Republican congressman for 21 years. Always subordinating party inter est to the national welfare, Welch’s rugged integrity won him the esteem of both Presidents Hoover and Roosevelt, with Harry Truman equally fond of him. It is an axiom in congress that when Dick Welch wants something at the White House, he gets it. His last visit, to request Presidential support of another bridge connect ing San Francisco and Oakland, was no exception. Despite opposition from the navy, which contends that ex panded aircraft and water- transport facilities in the bay area make a new bridge inad visable, Welch told Truman that the bridge was imperative. Traffic on the present Oakland bridge, he said, was moving "bumper-to-bumper.” ‘‘AU we are asking is a public hearing to state our case, Mr. President,” said Welch, “but the navy is even opposed to that.” “This is an election year,” commented Welch with a grin, “but there are no poUtical considerations in the bridge project as far as I am concerned.” Truman may have been thinking of Welch’s unflinching battle to sup port OPA as he replied:“In your case, Dick, it wouldn’t make any difference to me wheffier there were any political considerations in it or not.”• • •' CONGRESS RETREATS It isn’t often that the public rises up in protest so quickly and effec tively as over the recent cutting of price control in the house of repre sentatives, However, the “Save OPA” mail drive on congress now appears to have scored a bull’s eye. Senate opposition to crippling house amendments is mounting and anti-price control senators one by one are beginning to yeU "uncle!” Despite this, OPA Boss Paul Porter and Economic Stabilizer Chester Bowles are awaiting the senate showdown with crossed fingers. What they fear is a compromise senate bill. — a watered-down, but still danger ous, version of the house “re peal” measure.Porter warned of this in a re cent secret conference with Bowles and other top officials when tae question was raised as to whethei the outspoken Bowles should con tinue his cannonading for air-1 ight OPA legislation. Bowles himself felt that it might be smart for him to pull punches temporarily. Porter, however, vigorously ad vised the contrary. “This is no time to trim our sails or for you to let down, Chester,” be told Bowles.* • * MISSOURI POUND CAKE President Truman’s first cousins, Nellie and Ethel Noland of Inde pendence, Mo., are-writing quite a few letters these days about the fa mous “pound cake” which long has been a favorite delicacy of the Tru man and Noland families. Last Christmas, while Truman was in Independence for the holi days, one of the Noland sisters’ cakes was fea< ored on the .menu. A writer for the Associated Press, apparently inexperienced in the kitchen, obtained the recipe’ and published it. Later housewives throughout the country tried their hand at preparing the cake. But something was wrong. Scores of letters began pouring into the No- . land mailbox at 216 North Dela ware street. Housewives were hav ing kitchen difficulties. A check revealed the Associ ated Press reporter had failed to include in the recipe one pound of butter — necessary for good results in baking the cake. Perhaps the AP reporter was pa triotic and didn't think butter should be used in cake in view of the edi ble fats shortage. Anyway, Presi dent Truman’s cousins have been writing letters ever since.* » * MERRY-GO-ROUND Eighty-five professors at the Uni versity of Pennsylvania’s Mffiarton school of finance and commerce were polled regarding the continu ation of OPA. Eighty-one signed a petition urging continuation of price controls. . . .

Tbe sheriff waited for the two men* then pot the handcuffs on Sherwin. Stenhart re* gained consciousness* and supported by Jim began the descent mI can't under stand it," stenhart said; “be was going to M me.” Jim reminded him that Sher* win had saved his life. A sharp report came from "the thicket and Stenhart crumpled. He had been shot The posse fired into the bushes and' killed tbe man who fired. It was Jordan! Stenhart was taken to tbe ranch house and a doctor summoned. Tbe nurse said he was dying. CHAPTER XI Shodced and dismayed, Jim hus tled his sister into the old hall. Un consciously he’ dropped into the chair at his desk. “I wish to heaven the doctor would get here!” he 'ex claimed roughly. “He started at once—as soon as I ’phoned,” Jane replied absently, touching the old desk affectionately; she reihembered Sherwin there. Jim, huddled in the chair, rumi nated. “Jordan must have got us confused in the storm—he was a crack shot. Poor Max—it was for me and he got it!” Jane said nothing; her hands were clasped on the desk. The wind swept the door open and drove the rain across the hall. Her brother rose and forced it shut, bolting it. Then he turned on her, at the limit of his patience. “Good Lord, Jane, haven’t you a heart? Max is dying—he loves you! You’re — you’re a perfect stick, standing there and staring in front of you!”' She looked up and her white face twitched with pain. ‘Tm sorry for Max, but I’m thinking of the man he sent to—a living death!”Jim bit his lip. “Look here, Jane, he’s a brave man, I acknowledge it but he’s been convicted of a cruel crime; you’ve got to let him drop!” “He’s not guilty,” she said firmly; “I’ll never believe him guilty. No guilty man would have done that splendid thing—he saved his ac cuser!” “Fine, I grant it Nevertheless, he goes back to jaQ for life—you understand that, Jane? For life!” “Not if there’s any way on earth that I can save himt” she cried passionately. “You!” Jim spoke with brotherly scorn. “You can help, too, Jim,” she went on, not heeding his derision. “Delay them, keep him here—and give him a chance to escape!” “To what purpose?” Jim asked her dryly. ?‘To be a fugitive always, to hide away somewhere, in South America, perhaps, under a false name, hunted, advertised for, never to know a moment’s peace—a con demned murderer! Bah, I’d rather go to jail! There’s no capital pun ishment in his state.” “You’ve never been in jail!” Jane retorted. “And you—you ’phoned for Cutler, you know you did!” “Stenhart—" Jim began, and stopped. “Oh, I know!” Jane's gesture was eloquent Jim, remembering the man sus pended between the ledge and eter nity, to save his enemy, began to walk up and down the hall. Jane dropped into his vacant chair and laid her head on the desk. She could hear the fury of the wind out side. It grew dusky, too, in the old hall, for the day was passing swift ly; tomorrow— “I’m sorry, but I can’t do a thing!” said Jim hoarsely. She made no reply. A shiver ran through her; tomorrow he would be on his Way east! There is so little in a day—and so much. Then, sud denly, she heard Fanny’s voice call ing to Jim. Her brother answered hurriedly, went into the sickroom and tiie door closed behind him; For the first time Jane was alone. She'straightened herself in the old Wortfri chair and looked about her. In the daygloom of the old hall she saw only shadows here and there. A clock ticked loudly over the desk, and it seemed to remind her of the brevity of the span of life. The rain no longer beat with such fury on the window-panes, but the wind shrieked and howled in the distant canyons. Sherwin was in the other building still. The men were there; ^he could see Jose and Pete Rooney rubbing down their horses in the open door of the Sta bles. She rose cautiously and fled softly down the hall, past Stenhart’s closed door; it seemed to her that she heard voices but she did not stop to' listen. She opened a little sidedoor that led past the- kitchen andJran into the rain. It was falling liglitly now; the gray clouds had broken on the distant ranges, and the high peaks shone, in dear weather. It seemed almost like a promise, .this lifting of the clouds, and she :called Mae softly. 1 The Old man emerged from his quarters with a long face. “You mustn’t get wet Jane, better run back,” be warned. Bjut die caught at his sleeve with shaking hands. “Mac, Tve got to see him!” ..MacDowell hesitated. “He’s got guards 'alongside of him, Jane; it ain’t no place for you—’’ She lifted her blue eyes'steadily to his. “Mac,. I must see him— it’s—” she Choked—'"it’s the last timet’* The old man looked away, swal lowing hard. He had known Jane when she was five years old; he hated to see her face now. “Quick, Mac, I’ve only got a little while—they maiy call me back—they think Stenhart’s very bad!” Her hands, on his arm, shook, and he felt them. Reluctantly, he led the way into the long low building; Jane caught a glimpse of-the vac- queros at supper and, with them, some men Who belonged to Cutler's posse. But Mac got her past them to a door in the end of the room. There was a moment of delay and then it was opened. Mac had spoken to Cutler and the guard came out and sat down outside the door as Jane went in alone. The little room, with its one tiny window-slit, too small for a man’s body to pass through, was dim with the coming of dusk, but she saw the tall man who sat at the little table, a tray of untasted food before him, his head upon his hands. Expecting no one whom he cared to see, he did not He raised his head and their eyes m et even look up and the despair in his attitude went to her heart. She thought of him, as she had seen him, brave and free, going down on that thin rope over the abyss to save his enemy! A proud light shone sud denly in her blue eyes, and she.came close to him. “John!” she said softly. He raised his head and their eyes met. For an instant he seemed dazed, then he rose to his feet. “You’ve come to me—a prisoner?” “I saw you,” she said; “I’m so proud of you!” He drew a long breath. “Jane, you did it! I’d vowed to kill him— I’d tracked him like a murderer—I had nothing in my heart but hate. I was waiting to kill him when you came up there, but when I found you cared, your touch drove out the poison—I couldn’t do it!” , She looked up proudly. “You didn’t know yourself,’ John, even I didn’t know you, for,when I saw you there, waiting for/him, I thought you’d kill him. But it was never really in your heart, John Sherwin, for you’re a brave man—no brave man is a murderer! You’ve—made good.” He smiled bitterly. “You forget whatj—I ami” “No, I remember! Some day it will come right; the truth can’t be always hidden. I’ll believe in you always!” ~ Emotion choked him, then, in a broken voice: “It means only mis. ery for you to care; I’m as good as a dead man. Forget me, Jane, be happy!” “Never;” she answered softly. "Always I’ll remember—until we meet again!" He held her. bands in a grip that almost hurt them, looking down into her brave eyes. % “You gave up your chance for him—and he’s dying,: John. Jordan’s shot will kill him.” ') his headSherwin was dumb, bowed in utter despair.“Oh, if I could only get you out!" she murmured brokenly, then with sadden hope. “I’ve thought of a way —there used to be a shuttered win dow back here—” she ran to the wall, feeling it—“it’s here—you’re strong—come!” she whispered. :His heart leaped. Liberty! It would not give her to him, but free, he might carve out a destiny, re trieve something yet. His hands actually shook as he followed her guid ance. In the darkening room he could just see the fastenings, old and covered with dust, half papered over. It resisted and he drew his table fork—they had not allowed him a knife—along the crevices. At last he released the shutter, turned it softly-and looked out. He faced an open-slope and the light from . another window streamed across it. Shgrwin drew back, with a grim smiJe.t “They’ve'beaten us, Jane!” A man was sitting there, With his rifle across his knees. The sheriff, having caught a jafil-breaker, was taking no chances. — Jane was crying bitterly now, but Sherwin tried to comforfeher. “At best, I'd have besn only a hunted fugitive, dear girl} we must part—” He could not go on. Her sobs shook him with %n even deep er emotion.There camep-ar^soft knock at the door and, ofd Mac’s voice, a bit IuiSkyv ZjilTime1S up, Jane, an’ the- doc’s lfere; he says Stenhart’s dyin' —they want you!” “God keep you!” Sherwin said hoarsely; all other words failed.The, girl,, blind with tears, stum bled <tyt old Mac holding her up. ; “TheV’re callin’ for you, Jane,” the old man explained. “I had to come all fired quick.

Be side him towered the big!sheriff, and a deputy was writing something on a paper at the table; Jape, coming in, half dazzled and blind with weeping, felt Fanny’s arms jgo around her. ■ £ “He’s dead, Jane; ifsTbver—Jim, tell her!” ” / Jim, speechless, made a sign to Cutler. “You do itP’ 1 • But the big sheriff had lost his nerve; he. only niade motions with his lips iikechewing. It was Fanny who drew Jane down beside her on a bench by thfe door. “He told ui'jbefore he died, Jane,” she said, “and the deposition was taken—he confessed to the murder of his uncle. It was done in the gar den; the man- who swore that Max was with Hirriv at the time was a perjurer, paid by Max. His unde quarreled with him and told him that he was going to change his will and leave every cent he had to Sherwin.

The two girls were alone. Fanny, trying to still Jane’s broken sobs, put her arms about her again.“He’s suffered so much!” Jane ' said, “and he gave up his chance to escape today to save Max!

That response , of heart to heart, which opens up the deep wells of mutual devotion, is one of life’s richest experiences.. . There is too little true friendship in the world because men and wom en have not teamed of the Lord Jesus what it means to be a real friend. There are mutual privileges and correspondingly mutual responsibili ties in friendship. Tbere are sor rows to share as well as joys, and there are times when there must be the outpouring of sacrificial de votion. ‘!There’s not a friend like the low ly Jesus, no, not one!” is not just the sentiment of a hymn writer. There is no friend like the Lord. He, therefore, merits our fullest de votion. ■ i‘.' There are three incidents, in. our lesson,' all of which took place in Bethany, the little village near Jeru salem where our Lord had found real friends. He went there to rest to pray, and to find companionship. These incidents reveal that I. Love Gives AU in SaerUdaI De votion (Mark 14:3-9). A rather shocking thing - took place in the home of Simon. Jesus, his distinguished guest, was at dinner with the disciples, when a woman walked in unannounced and anointed his head with costly spike nard ointment Tbe disciples were surprised, and led by the betrayer, Judas, who had his hands On and in the money bags, they protested such awful waste. Think of it—the value of this oint ment was 300 pence, the equivalent (we are told) of SOO days of -work. That means in our day it would be worth from three to five thousand dollars. She should have stopped to think! Some lesser gift would have shown her love, and this rich gift could have been used for Che poor! Thus reasons the cool, calculat ing church member; but the be liever with his heart full.of love for the Master, gives without stint The Lord honored her gift, and ac cepted it as the anointing of his body for his coming death. He re minded them that they would al ways have the poor to care for, and he would soon be gone-. Love which never overflows in the abandonment of sacrifice for the one beloved is a cold and distant thing; in fact one wonders if it really should be dignified, by calling it love at all. The Lord is looking for followers who are willing to give themselves freely and gladly Mor him, pour ing out the lovel/ fragrance of a life .fully yielded to-Mm. H. Love Shares the Fellowship of Joy (Luke 10:3M2).: s The little home of Mary, Martha and Lazarus in Belhany was light ed up by that iniangibie but delight ful glow which conies with a friend who honors one’s home by his or her presence. - He had often been in this -home. Here he found 'relaxation jand com fort. Here he gave of himself in fel lowship and blessing.- But there was a shadow over this visit. Martha, eager to haye.a good dinner, was “cumbered” in heart and-soon'becahie'critical OfiMary because she sat at Jesus’ feet.Do not assume that Mary had not done her share of the work. She had, but she “also sat at Jesus’ feet.” In other words, she. knew when the time had come to quit fuss ing, and to get some real fellowship out of the joy-of having Jesus in tiie home. We who love and serve the Lord need to watch lest we become so “cumbered with much serving*’ that we lose out spiritually. We can be come so busy with, church rwork, holding offices in religious organiza tions, yes, even with prfeaching and teaching, that We do not have time for personal fellowship with tbe Lord.m. Love Bears the Bacden of Sor row (John . .The very home where joy 'was the portion one day, becaipe the.

The Winston - Salem Journal had a nice write-up about Mocks ville in a recent issue, but the gentleman who did the writing didn’t give our town credit for having but one furniture manu factoring plant and another large plant in course of erection.

Smidi lumber plant, our two large flour mills, one of the largest cotton ginning plants in this entire section; the Hupp-Fost- er Feed Mills and perhaps other industries. Small favors thank fully received—larger ones in pro portion.

Ifs time to bring the silver out of the mothballs, and to see that the best china is washed gently to sparkle on the wedding reception or breakfast table. Weddings always pose an inter esting refreshment problem because we do not face them every day. With shortages still very much evi dent, the problem is bound to be just a bit thick, especially if you happen to be personally involved^’' Then, too, if the wedding happens to be a big affair with showers and parties preced ing the big event, most of us' are apt to run out of ideas pretty quickly. For this reason, I’ve made up menu suggestions for different types of wedding refreshments, including the bridal shower. Everydiing is on the simple side, but if you choose, you can make it quite an event by garnishing the food attractively, as suggested. Menu I.—Bridal Shower - Frosted Sandwich Loaf Molded Salad Relishes - Raspberry Cream Pairfait Dainty Cookies Coffee The dessert is an easy to fix num ber provided you’re stocked with fresh berries, ice cream and some currant jelly. Raspberry Cream Parfait. (Serves 6) % cop currant Jdiy I cup raspberries Vi cup whipping cream Tanilla ice cream Beat the jelly with a fork, fold in raspberries. Add whipped cream. Fill parfait glasses with alternate layers of the jelly mixture and ice cream. Garnish with whole berries. Menu II.—Spinster Luncheon Consomme with Lemon Slices Creamed Chicken with Toasted Almonds Orange Salad Thin Melba Toast Bidividual Meringues with Ice Cream Mints Beverage How to do: Prepare consomme ahead of time; heat when ready to serve. For cas serole, use large pieces of white meat, rich cream , sauce and top with slivered, toasted almonds. The orange salad may be molded; it’s good with a honey french dressing. Tint the meringues pink and serve with ice cream or whole, sugared berries. LTNN SATS Taste Teasers: For a summery touch to a consomme noodle soup, add I chopped hard-cooked egg to each four servings. Sprinkle croutons with grated, nippy cheese and serve them with soup or vegetable juice as a first course. Two tablespoons of chopped pickle relish adds zip to any mac aroni or noodle'and cheese dish. Add the relish before baking. -Season steaks with a sauce made by mixing chili satice, grat ed onion; Worcestershire sauce and a bit of mustard together. Pour over the steak just before it finishes broiling. Halves of c anned peaches filled with cream cheese mixed with chopped bits of ginger or slivered almonds are delicious served on a bed of greens. Sprinkle grated cheese on to mato juice before serving for a nippy taste. LTNN CHAMBERS’- MENDS Salmon SoufiBe Lemon White .Sauce Broccoli ParsleyedPotatoes AppleCoieSlaw Bran Muffins .

BdeaMd by W utcia Ntwipapa Onion, WNU Washington Buna n» Jffif Bre Sttt Ne W, cLittle People’ Protest Crippling of OPA VifEMBERS of congress are now reaping a whirlwind of mail from constituents condemning ac tion of the house in passage of the bill crippling OPA so badlyethat it cannot survive. Members of the senate now considering the measure are receiving mail in a ratio of about 25 to I urging that body to correct the house action, and to ex tend OPA another year without crippling amendments. Probably the most bitter denunci ation of the house action comes from the “Army Times,” national weekly newspaper for the United States army, giving congress something to think about. Poi1 this paper gives the stand of the fifteen million re turning veterans on this important issue of continued government con trol of prices and critical materials. The “Army Times says: ^‘Afraid to dare public wrath by voting against: such postwar necessities as emergency housing for veterans: extension of- the draft act and con tinuation of price control, the mem bers of the house have adopted a pattern of cutting the heart out of the laws and leaving only a skeleton and a tombstone bearing the origi nal name. Then after destroying the effectiveness of the laws, they vote a resounding ‘aye’ ostensibly to provide emergency housing, ex tension of the draft and continu ation of price control. “Actually, however, most of those congressmen voted against veter ans housing,- against extension of the draft and against continuation of price control. Nevertheless, on the record they can go before Uie electorate this fall and insist that they voted on such legislation. “They are hypocrites at heart.” Inttationary Danger The newspaper further warned that extension of the OPA price con* trol ior at-least another year is the only way in which this country can bypass a wild inflationary period and that end of price control now “would make a mockery of the pay 'raise now pending for the armed services; it would devalue terminal leave pay for enlisted men, de crease the value of mustering-out pay, void the' worth of a possible early bonus and engulf the civilian wages of newly returned veterans.” Accusing both Democrats and Re publicans, "Army Times” placed -the major blame on the‘GOP which, it said, “is seeking to capitalize on the petty discomforts which all of us suffered during four years of OPA control.” , “It is a' vicious and stupid at tempt. to gain power at the cost of the little people . . . the guys .who make up 'America . . . the workers, the veterans, the masses. We've all railed at OPA,” the editorial says, "‘we’ve cussed it for everything.” Still, in the long run, it woidd be hard to find' .an American family of low o r' moderate means that wouldn’t vote to continue price con trol if the vote was theirs'. "Unfortunately, however, they delegated their vote to a bunch of job-seeking politicians who now prove themselves to be representatives, ^not of the people, ,but of pow- er-consctous political machines and mercenary and selfish interests.” And this reporter would like to point Oiit that during consideration of the full employment ’bill certain senators led by Senator Taft of Ohio declared it to be the policy of the government - that they could not guarantee anybody anything in the economic .field,.particularly employment. Protect Dealers They were very careful, however, to place in -the OPA bill an.amendment which guarantees to manufac turers and dealers a profit on each item of manufacture and prohibits the OPA from requiring wholesal ers and retailers from absorbing part of the higher costs. If government as a matter of pol icy cannot guarantee jobs for work ers then how can it guarantee profits for industry-? - - It may be- that the senate, will, eliminate these two fea tures of I the OPA bill as it passed the house, although opposition to OPA in both house and senate would like io see the bill so loaded down with inequities and so impossible of administration that the President would be forced to veto the meas ure . . then they could pass the onus on to him as they have done in the draft-extension'bill. Many business men ar£ now be coming alarmed at the inflationary features of the house OPA bill. They foresee disruptions of their budgets for operations. ITieir buying prices getting out Of hand and Cheir wage costs unstable. As a result of this chaos they see a continued shortage on commodities instead of full pro duction, as ffambouyantly predicted by the National Associathni of Man ufacturers'i The N. A.

The History of Coffee The fragrant cup of coffee which makes us civil every morning and renews us so often during the day links many nations in a long and romantic history. Just when it first appeared as a beverage no one can say exactly. But that it was an Ara bian discovery seems very likely in View of the fact that coffee grew wild in that part of the world before the ninth century after Christ, and fanciful Arabian nights tales have been handed down about the first brew. The most popular legend concerns Kaldi, an Arabian goatherd, whose dull life on the hillside made him ft gloomy Joe indeed. But he picked and ate some of the berries his goats were fond of nibbling, because he noticed that after eating these ber ries, the goats became gay creatures. Kaldi himself became a new man. Thereafter coffee berries were indis pensably to his diet, and so carefree and lively did he become that he often joined his goats in a merry dance. A monk, to whom Kaldi confided his experiences, prepared a drink from the beans and served it to the members of his order. They found' the beverage sustained their energy and helped them to pray and medi tate longer, so they adopted the drink and cultivated the plant / Gradually the popularity of the beverage spread to Turkey, where, in 1534, Jhe first public coffee House was established. It was introduced L O O K I N G A f f M D GEORGE S. BENSON PraUtn-Miriiiig Cttttgt SuttglJitktutt • W hy Argue? : Ever since V-J Day, which most Americans look upon as the end of World War H, we Have all recog nised a high clamor of communistic propaganda. With sound reason ing, a great many well-meaning peo ple have tried to oppose it on the street comers, to no avail. It is like arguing with a headline in yes terday’s newspaper. To be really effective, our opposition must go deeper, much deeper. There are hot many things that I like less or fear more than con centration of political power, gov- 'erameht by men rather than by .law, and official favoritism for indi- ividuals and digues; and I’m not alone. I am convinced that an over whelming majority of Americans feel the same way.' Consequently I hope these few remarks may improve the measure of protection for us all. Time for Action Wordy arguments never contrib ute much to the world’s progress or to any people’s store of knowledge. In fact, taking a stand in opposition to another man’s harangue serves without tall to dignify the harangue and call attention to it. Debating a false philosophy always helps it and, unless opposition is well han dled, there’s a danger of giving more help than hindrance.The propaganda machine we hear so plainly has been chattering away for two decades. Promotions, good and evil, ride on the wings of news, and news is necessary. Publishers, columnists and radio commentators chronicle real happenings, day by day. Don’t blame them. They perform an essential public service. Fiiid the Source Of course there must be .a few publishers who* are unpatriotic, and writers' who would stir up a revolu tion if they could, but these are not the nation’s chief danger. When news is really poisoned, the job is done by those who moke news, not those who print and broadcast it. Let us know the truth because the truth will make us free; free from our political enemies as well as oth er kinds. Journalists tell me that news arti cles have value (i.e. deserve prom inence) in proportion to the number of people interested. Thus persons in positions 'of power make news because a lot of people are interest ed in what these men think and say and do. If the rulings they decree or the opinions they express seem socialistic, there’s nothing honor able for news men to do but tell the people. It’s their counfry. Starve It Out Radical propaganda undoubtedly does this nation damage. I believe a big . majority of Americans are wholesome people, love their country and understand what makes it the world’s best place to live and most influential power. Just the same, poisoned news gains converts. And so long as mem in power wish to gain more power, the campaign for collectivism will be carried on. At its source is the best place to quiet the voice of socialist promo tion. Men who hanker to boss the schools, control hospitals, limit pro duction and eternally fix prices .ought to be put where their every !word and deed does not. make news —out of power. There is a sure way: Stop the flow, of revenue out Of the . Treasury into the haitds of Wdi appointed “rulers.” That will start immediately and effectively to [solve the problem of collectivist !propaganda. to the Venetians in 1815, the French in 1644, the English and Viennese in 1650, and it was brought to North America in 1668. But promptly the power of tiie beverage to stimulate dear thlnVmg and plain talking con verted the popular coffee houses into discussion dubs: And political de bate that exploded into dissension, direct action and resistance made coffee houses the targets of tyrants like Charles II of England, who termed them seminaries of sedition. But, according to Disiaeli, London and Paris coffee hoqses of tiie seven teenth and eighteenth centuries hdd the mirror to “the manners; the morals and the politics of a people.” Here in colonial United States, too, the coffee house became the meeting - house of the town fathers, and after | a time changed from purely social i centers to focal points of merchant trade and political discussion. Danid W ebster called Boston’s Green Dragon Coffee House "the headquar ters of the American Bevolution.” The Dutch took the coffee plant to South Jtmerica back around 1718, with a result that everf sixth grader knows. Today’s coffee, plantations in, Pan-America produce three-fourths. 1 of the world’s coffee. And because we are the. world’s greatest coffee drinkers, of course we’re the biggest customers for the Pan-American yield.

Jhkuut Good Strategy Congressman Hatton Sumners, in my opinion one of America’s great est living statesmen, has announced his purpose to retire at the end of the 79th congress. This news first appeared as a dark cloud beSause ■un, a u nim are sorely neeuea to day, but in Washington last month I was shown the silver lining. Rep. ! Sumners is “retiring” to a more strategic theatre of war. The people of America have a danger that is common to them ail and a common duty to defend them selves against it. This nation's hope for a bright future depends on a few facts being seen by -a great ' many people at once. Americans can be depended upon for. action at any time the truth is not hidden from them or distorted beyond rec ognition. Mr. Sumners will soon start talking straight to them. Powerful Truths “I have watched what my own generation . . . has been doing to the greatest system of democratic government ever evolved through the processes of the ages,” said the veteran lawmaker. “By ignoring principles' and the lessons of his tory, accepting for our guidance the theories of men and political ex pedience, we have made dependents of our citizens and vassals of our states. “By concentration of power and drafts on the Federal Treasury we now have a bewildering govern mental agglomeration Impossible of democratic control. Wasteful and inefficient, by nature it is the instru mentality of favoritism,, oppression and corruption. It is tiie destroyer of self-reliance, self-respect and self- governing ability without which no people can remain free.” But There’s HopeA public awakening will save this country from any form of tyranny. Mr. Sumners does not doubt this. He said, “Washington is as sensi tive to the changing currents of pub lic opinion as a barometer is to re cord changes in tiie weather.” If acts of congress fair to reflect public sentiment, it is because such sen timent is itself confused or indis tinct to the majority. Mr. Sumners is taking to the lec ture platform. I wish him as wide a hearing as his profound experi ence deserves. Popular education is the right place to start winning for America a future of freedom. This man has seen Congress sweat under heat applied by political pres sure groups. He sees the-need to open a door and admit a cooling draft of public sentiment. And he can do It Remarkable Record Born in Tennessee, Hatton Sum ners turned 21 in Texas. His con gressional district (Dallas) has kept him in Washington 34 years by electing him tc.the 63rd and all sub sequent congresses. He is a sound thinker and an eloquent speaker. He is a nationally recognized authority on Constitutional Law. He is chair man of the House Judiciary Com-' mittee and has been for a long time. In a brief and eloquent word-pic- ture of official Washington, the re-' tiring crusader for decentralization of power said of Congress: “The political backing of a well organized minority is consistent and depend able whereas the backing of an un organized majority is fickle.” That’s clear. An enlightened public -opin ion must supplant loud and selfish minorities as guiding stars of Con gress.
