There came near being a serious fire at tbe Mocksville Hotel Wed nesday evening. A lighted lamp was left near an open window, and the wind blew the curtain over the lamp which caught on fire. A mat* tress was considerably damaged, and had not tbe fire been discover ed just at tbe critical moment, the hotel would probably have gone up in flames. D. A.

With his assistance we expect to greatly improve our paper.—Yanceyville Messenger, Looking Back At Unpleasant Things Rev. Walter E. Iseoboor. High Point. R ,4. Not long ago I was in tbe borne of an elderly widow who bad a story to tell me of unpleasantness. Many years ago—perhaps forty— ber father, a leading church mem ber, was mistreated in bis church, from which he withdrew, never to become a member again. AU those who mistreated and perhaps mis. judged her father have passed a* wav, but she bas nothing to do with this church today. Those who are now members can’t help wbat happened baek then. She broods over the bitter past and doesn’t move forward in the golden pres, ent. The ehurch goes on, but she stands still. Tbe church bas a good Sunday school, and has some fine spiritual members, and is quite alive in its program for missions. She stays at home, perhaps gloom v in her soul, and pines over the un pleasant past. This gets her uo where. It never makes ber happy, neither does it make auybody else happy. Her precious aud price less time goes by, along with gold en opportunities that she doesn’t avail herself of. Souls are lost a- round her, but she never wins one to Christ. The precious Gospel is preached dose bv, but sbe doesn’t hear It. Prayer meeting is. held weekly in the church of which her father was a member, and peoplp get blessed, but she isn’t there. Souls are saved around the altar of this sime church, but sbe isn’t there to rejoice .with them. Great opportunities to do good in this church, and in her community, present themselves, but sbe doesn’t accept them. The years of life when she couM have been a bless ing to souls that have gone on to meet God have sllpned away, but she doesn’t avail herself of them. She broods ever the unpleasant past and accomplishes nothing good, gteat nor worth while. How will she stand at the judgment? Life gone; ooportudities, precious and priceless gone, with a mind and heart fixed on the unpleasant oast. O that we might all say with Longfellow, "Let the dead oast bury the dead; act, act In tbe living present; heart within and God o’erhead!” We believe tbe experience of this dear soul is that of multitudes of others, maybe not In the same sense, but In heart and sonl toward the chnrch because of unpleasant things in the past. My. my, why not bury the Hitter oast and forget it, and not let it stand between oua’s soul and Gnd. usefulness and heaven? Don’t waste life and gol den opnortunities brooding over the unpleasant past. Go forward for God. Amen* U Another Murder in legal” Charlotte C harity and Children. In ' ’legal” Charlotte, a 19-year- old theatre usher in company w'th a taxi driver on a mission to get some bootleg liquor, shot the driv er, killing him instantly, and then gravely injured the cabbie’s wife. Tbe incident took place after a par. ty Tbe accused man s?id, "I bad too much to drink.” One would expect the bootleg angle to enter in If the tragedy had taken place In a dry county. We wonder how legal liquor proponents in Char* lotte will explain this one. In tbe meantime, the Mecklenburg city continues its shameful record in crime and murders. N ow is th e tim e to su b scrib e (o r T h e R ecord. BREAK FOR TEACHER Little Tobey w as telling his mother about the day in school. “M other,” he said, “today our teacher asked m e whether I had any brothers or sisters, and I, told her I w as the only child.” “And what did she say?” asked his mother. “She said, ‘Thank goodness!’ ” Ready and W illing A visitor from Ireland to the United States got into trouble short ly after his arrival and was.- haled into court for trial, a brand new experience for him . He watched' w ith great interest as the jury was selected. “Prisoner at' the bar," the clerk called out, “do you wish to chal lenge any of the jury?” “W ell,” replied the Celt, “Oi’m not exactly in trainin’, but Oi think Oi could pull off a round or two with thot fat old boy in the com er.” Foretkought A young interne, who walked past the psychiatric ward each morning and watched one of the inm ates go through the m otions of winding up and pitching an im aginary ball, w as asked by one of his friends why he stopped daily and watched the act. “If things keep on going the way they are,” he answered, “I’ll be in there catching for that guy and I want to get onto his curves.” Of Course “No, you can't have any more cookies tonight, Bobby,” said his m other. “Don’t you know that you can’t sleep on a full stom ach?” “WtH,” replied Bobby, “I can sleep on m y back.” WHAT’S PAR? F irst Golfer: “I suppose you heard that poor old Jim killed his w ife.” Second Golfer: “No! How?” First Golfer: “With a golf club.” Second Golfer: “H 0 w m any strokes?” FAIR QUERY “Sam ,” a father asked his backward son, “how m any let ters are there in the alphabet?” “I dunno.” “You’ve been at school four years, and don’t know how m any letters are in the alpha bet!” “Lem m e ask you a question, dad. You’ve been to the post- office, haven’t you?” “Of course." “W ell, you tell m e how many letters are in the post-office.” Separating Drinking G lasses How can a person separate two thin drinking glasses which stuck together, one inside the other, after washing? They stuck because, when they w ere placed together, the outer one w as w arm er than the inner. As it cooled, it contracted and firm ly gripped the one inside. To separate them , try putting som e ice cubes inside the inner glass and running w arm w ater over the outside. This w ill cause the inner glass to con tract and the outer one to expand and then it should be possible to get them apart. Could Be “I wonder why so m any mar riages are failures?” “It m ust be because so many inexperienced people go into it.” A SHOCKER A m an w as arrested for assault and battery and brought before the judge. Judge: “What is your nam e, occupation, and what are you charged w ith?” Prisoner: “M y nam e is Sparks. I am an electrician, and I am charged with battery.” Judge: "Officer, put this guy in a dry cell.” S L A f c S T l Dim Outlook TNSTEAD OF LOOKING for a job “ he would frequent and participate in radical m eetings. H is father held his im patience as long as he could but finally exploded. “You lazy loafer,” he shouted, “why don’t you go out and earn som e m oney?” “What good w ill m oney be after w e’ve had the revolution?” asked his son. “There won’t be any need for m oney in the Utopia w e will have then.” “M aybe,” said his father; “but if you w ere to go out and earn, sny, $25,000, you could help the cause along, couldn’t you?” “Y eah,” the son pointed out, "b’.it supposing the revolution don’t com e?” EhT Then I’m stuck with Uie $25,000. HOME MUSICIAN The occasion w as an amateur m usical. The kind-hearted hostess, spying a lonely-looking little m an huddled in a corner of the room, paused to m ake conversation. “Tell m e,” she asked, “do you play any m usical instrum ent?” “Not aw ay from hom e,” the lit tle m an replied. "How peculiar,” rem arked the hostess. “W hat instrum ent do you pla” at honle?” “ Second fiddle,” the little man replied. M atter of Phrasing The mountain wom an had com e across the creek from her little cabin to tell a sym pathetic neigh bor about her m an’s goings-on. “He whupped m e this m om in’,” she com plained. The big-boned neighbor wom an turned upon her indignantly. “Don’t ever say he whupped you,” she ordered. *‘Jes’ say ‘w e fit!’ ” E xclusive Henry: “I’m sorry, Josephine, but I went into six stores and tried to m atch your sam ple of goods but there w asn’t a thing in town any where like it.” Josephine: “That’s just what I wanted to find out. Now I can m ake a new dress and know that "all the other wom en in town won’t have one of the sam e kind.” Confirmation Boaster: “Y es, when I was in A frica a lion ran across m y path. I had no gun in m y hand so I took a pail of w ater and poured it over his head and he ran aw ay.” Bored Listener: “I can vouch for that. I w as in Africa at the tim e and the lion ran into m e and when I stroked his m ane, it w as still quite dam n.” T rue L ikeness •PONY WAS ABLE to eke out a ^ bare existence with his fruit- push-cart and every penny taken in w as as carefully counted as dol lars would be in a larger m er chant’s establishm ent. So it w as in the nature of a m ajor catastrophe when a drop in revenue w as en countered by the action of a stranger who helped him self to a banana or a pear or an apple as he passed each day. Tony reported the situation to the police sergeant who promised to do som ething about it. The ser geant hid behind a post the next day and nabbed the stranger as he lifted a peach from the stand. He hustled him off to the station house and explained everything to the lieutenant. “Now w hat charge shall I book him on?” asked the sergeant. The lieutenant thought a m om ent, then suggested, “Why not put him down as im personating an officer?” Cotton G ains Prominonco For AU W lnlerffm e Use N o longer is wool the only pop ular winter-tim e fabric; cotton and rayon both are com ing into new prom inence. Nylon, too, is in any departm ent dress. The new flair for corduroy and velveteen is m anifest not only in school and day tim e dresses, but in coats and in hat collections. Wide and m edium -wale corduroy is m ade up into any number of dressy princess design coats, belted m odels with huge pockets, as w ell as straight, all-weather coats. Since certain individuals have an allergy for wool, it fe a convenience to have other fabrics appearing w ith such sm artness and suitabil ity. Recently, chem icals have been developed that w il give cottons the sam e lovely color tones as wool and silk. The rayon afternoon suit or suit dress is fast becom ing a clas sic. A ccessories can turn such basic costum es into party clothes, or they can be worn quietly as a suit for work or street. Nylon continues as a fashion worthy fabric with new uses for this practical m aterial appearing alm ost daily. Dark, sem i-tailored nylon fabric is actually gaining a foothold for the basic dress. Why shouldn’t it when it can be washed, dry in four or five hours, and then not need ironing? Special Coatings for Blinds M etal strips for Venetian blinds are roller-coated at the rate of about two feet per second. Both sides and edges are coated at the sam e tim e. The coating m ust be especially form ulated to resist m echanical w ear, soaps and other compounds used in cleaning, sun light and m oisture. It m ust also be anticorrosive and as flexible as is possible, consistent with the re quired hardness. In addition, it m ust be sm ooth, pleasing in both texture and color, and m ust retain these properties for a long tim e. Why Baby F igs D ie D eficiency of vitam in A in ra tions for gifts and sow s can be blam ed for several diseases and defects of baby pigs. U nless swine producers are certain that rations for their breeding stock contain plenty of this vitam in, it is good insurance to feed a vitam in A supplem ent, the com m ittee ad vises.

A King’s Secret An English monarch, Charles I, had a French chef who m ade ice cream for him . But Charles be lieved ice crer - was a dish for royalty alone. ..en his chef re tired, Charles granted him a gen erous pension to keep the recipe secret. However, it leaked out lit tle by little. Finally colonists in the far-off wilderness of Am erica w ere m aking ice cream too. D ress It Up! little D avid, visiting at the home of a neighbor, w as given a piece of bread and butter, and he sm iled a polite: “Thank you.” “That’s right, D avid,” com pli m ented the lady of the house. “I like to hear littie boys say ‘Thank you.’ ” “W ell,” said David after a little thought, “if you would like to hear m e say it again, you. m ight put som e jam or jelly on the bread.’.’ Letting Him Know A fam ous motor-car manufactur er advertised that he had put a car together in seven m inutes. The next evening he w as called on the phone at dinnertime and asked whether it w as true. “Y es,” w as the reply. “Why?” "Oh, nothing, but I think I have the car.” Firearm s in Hom es Firearm s are kept in m any hom es for numerous purposes other than for protection against burglars. Sportsm en have them on hand for hunting purposes and for target practice. Farm ers keep shotguns in convenient places for use in killing hawks, crows, and other, birds and anim als that often play havoc with their livestock and growing crops. The chief hazards from firearm s in the hom e are brought about by keeping the w eapons loaded and leaving them in places w here they are accessi ble to everybody, including chil dren.

At the first of each year the So- cial Security Administration re ceives numerous requests for sta tements of earnings for the pre vious year to be used in the pre paration of income tax returns. We regret that we are unable to comply with these requests. Wage statements can be furnished only for a purpose related to the ad ministration of the Old-Age and Survivors Insurance provisions of the Social Security Act. This lim itation has been put into effect in order to reduce the cost of ad ministering the Social Security Act and thus carry out the pro visions of the Act to the best in terests of the public. The limita tion, of course, does not apply to requests made by persons whose purpose is to check the accnracy of their Social Security Accounts. We would also like to mention that the Social Security Adminis tration’s records, kept in Balti more, Md., do not yet include all wages reported for you during the past year. Because of the time required for the Bureau of Inter nal Revenue to handle the great volume of employers’returns, and for the Bureau of Old-Age and Survivors Insurance to p o s t the wage amounts to the individual accounts, wage statements cover ing the year 1949 will not be avail able until July I, 1950. A statement of wages furnished an individual at this time will in clude wages through June 30, 1949, only.

WhereWeCameln Lesson for February 5, 1950 n CIRCULAR LETTER cam e in * * the other, day from a stranger who is hot and bothered because he has discovered that Jew s and N egroes can belong to Christian churches along with white Am er icans. The astonishing thing is hot that that should be true, but that any m an should get ex cited over it. What a s t o n i s hed the Apostle Paul w a s not that Jew s were in t h e Christian church but that anybody else could be! We m ust recall that Jesus w as a 9 r. Forem an Jew ; that all the apostles were Jew s; that the first Christian church at Jerusalem w as composed exclusively of Jew s. * * * New Type •THE CHURCH AT ANTIOCH, one A of the great com m ercial cities of the Rom an world, w as where w e G entiles cam e in. The w riter is indebted to his form er teacher, Dr. Charles Erdm an, for noting four w ays in which that church in Antioch was som ething new. They had no Old Testam ent, they knew nothing of the Old Testam ent sacrifices, they had no interest in the Tem ple or in the history of Israel. Like m ost G entiles, they had usually thought of the Jew as a quaint but unimportant m inority group. Now that these Gentiles w ere in the sam e church with Jew s, there would be plenty of room for trouble. Could a church m ade up of such different races becom e a true Brotherhood? So the old m other- church at Jerusalem sent up Brother Barnabas to look around. Barnabas w as not the church’s m ost brilliant m ind, but he had a heart full of faith. * * * N ew Leaders GOD DOES NOT ALWAYS give the greatest successes to the “big nam es.” N owadays every one who knows his Bible knows Paul and Barnabas; but in A ntiochboth m en were unknown at first, and untried. When God w ants a R eform a tion he calls forth a Luther, an obscure m an who never fitted any of the existing priest ly m olds. When God wanted to open up Africa he called David Livingstone; when he wanted m en for the far interior of Asia he called Hudson Taylor. When he wanted light to shine down into the slum s he called W illiam Booth. These were all peculiar m en by the standards of their tim es; but it takes peculiar m en to break aw ay from tradition’s hearth-fire and break out new roads for the GospeL • * * N ew Center FOR SOME TIM E Jerusalem was the capital of the Christian world. All roads led out from there, so to speak. With the rise of the Antioch church, however, a new center took the place of the old. Jerusalem withered away. In later tim es Alexandria led, and then other cities. For a thousand years Rom e and Constantinople w ere the ac knowledged centers of the Chris tian world. Now w e have also London—New York—G eneva . . . M any such centers have sm all beginnings. In A m erica’s early days the churches of Scotland sent over m issionary offerings for the help of the struggling little church of N ew York. In future years, who knows? Som e church in Yunnan m ay be sending m issionaries to the feeble folk left in the w ar - devastated ex - white world.* < * N ew N am e ANTIOCH is no longer a city of any im portance. M issionaries go to it, not from it. But old Antioch left us som ething still cherished, a new nam e for believers: Chris tian. That nam e itself proves som ething. It proves that the church in Antioch w as som ething m ore than an a g g r e g a tio n of “ churchm en.” It w as a fam ily of Christ-men and Christ- wom en. These believers m ust have talked and lived som e thing better than m ere vague “religion.” They talked of Christ, they loved Christ and they lived Christ, till even their busy neighbors took no tice. If your church had no nam e, and if your neighbors were to nam e it, and all the neighbors knew about it were you, by what nam e would they call it? Three years had passed since the honeym ooners had descended from their lofty pedestal and ap parently their puppy love had m atured. “ You don’t love m e any m ore," she sobbed. You used to be so nice to m e, now you’re alw ays barking and grow ling.” “W hat do you expect?” he de m anded. “ You’ve alw ays got m e in the doghouse.” M r. Jones squinted into the liv ing room w here his daughter’s young m an w as comfortably, en sconced in the m ost luxurious chair in the house. H e frowned and turned to his w ife. “ Y e Gods,” he grunted, “ w hy doesn’t she m arry him and get him out of m y easy chair?” “Now, now, dad,” she rem inded him , “you w ere young once your self, you know.” “Y es, I do know," he m uttered, “but you didn’t keep m e w aiting that long. A fter all, the only thing she has to decide is whether she loves him or not.” "W ell,” she replied, “ she’s had to w ait a w hile to see if she can do any better.” Young Tom w as the picture of utter dejection. “M y girl turned m e down,” he explained to a friend. “Now I have nothing to live for. I m ay as w ell cut m y throat.” “Now, now, w ait a w hile,” said his friend placatingly, “ don’t lose your head.” Keep Posted on V alues By R eading the Ads Sifloseph H eriniN NI IlO DCOl n IKE MTIOHU rOUNDMION H tt WfMinu PA U lK B FISH U S E SAWDUST F ish thrive on saw dust.

Al AU LEADING DitUG COUNTERS Hadacol Helps Textile Workers Slay On The Job Mr. Bamhardt The great textile mills of the Carolinas are booming again with shifts working day and night to turn out the nation’s finest mate rials, and HADACOL is doing its part to keep folks on the job. Many textile workers have re ported the wonderful relief which has been brought them by HADA COL with its five B vitamins and four important minerals. Two of these workers, a young father employed by the great Cannon Mills at Kan napolis, N. C., and a mother, work ing at a mill in nearby Salisbury, ' N. C., recently told how HADA COL had helped keep them on the job. Jay W. Barn hardt, Boute i, Box 343, Kan napolis, N. C., is 30 years old and the proud father of two children. His work in the Cannon Mills calls for a great deal of standing up. “I had been ill for several years,” said Mr. Barnhardt as he explained how close he came to having to give up his work. “I suffered with a weak . stomach. It became worse and worse with gastric disturbances. I just could not hold food and no food agreed with me. I could not sleep and finally I became so side that my legs got weak as I worked in the mill each day.” Mr. Earnhardt, like so many suf ferers, had tried many preparations without relief, when he heard about HADACOL. “After the second bottle of HADACOL I began to feel better and to regain the weight I had lost,” said Mr. Barnhardt. “My digestion became normal again and today I am as well as ever. My legs no longer bother me. I eat and enjoy m y food. I sleep well and have plenty of energy.” Mr. Bamhardt has taken several bottles of HADACOL and now takes the famous vitamin and mineral preparation to help stay well. He has had his wife take it with won derful results and has recommended it to his friends in the mill. Mrs. Maggie H. Poole, 1608 Caro line Avenue, in Salisbury, N. C., had become so ill that she was forced to ■ give up her work, but soon after nearing the wonderful news about HADACOL she was back on the job and has been doing swell ever since. “I was tired, weak and nervous,” said Mrs. Poole. “I suffered indi gestion and food didn't agree with me. I also had headaches. After tak ing five bottles of HADACOL I felt good and was back on the job at the mill. I had tried so many things that the HADACOL news was a real blessing to me. I have more appetite and eat what I want to. I feel better than I have in a long time.” Mr. Bamhardt and Mrs. Poole were both suffering from a lack of B Vitamins and the Minerals which HADACOL contains. HADACOL comes to you in liquid form, easily assimilated in the blood stream so that it can go to work right away. A lack of only a small amount of B Vitamins and certain minerals will cause digestive disturbances. .. Your food will g not agree with! you . . . You will have an upset stomach . . . You will suffer from heartburn, g a s pains and your j food will sour on t| your stomach and :: you will not be I able to eat the f things you like for fear of being Mrs. PooIe in misery afterwards. Many people also suffer from constipation. And while these symptoms may be the results of other causes, they are surely and certainly the signs of lack of B Vitamins and IiGnerals which HADACOL contains. And if you suffer from such a deficiency disorder, there is no known cure except the administration of the vitamins and minerals which your system lacks. It is easy to understand, there* fore, why countless thousands have been benefited by this amazing tonic, HADACOL. So it matters not how old you are or who you are . . . it matters not where you live or if you have tried all the medicines under the sun, give this wonderful preparation HADA COL a trial. Don’t go on suffering. Don’t continue to lead a miserable life. Many persons who have suf fered and waited for 10 to 20 years or even longer, are able now to live happy, comfortable lives because HADACOL supplied the vitamins and minerals which they systems needed. Be fair to yourself. Tempo rary relief is not enough for you. Give HADACOL a trial! Insist on the genuine HADACOL. Don't be misled. Accept no substi tute. Sold at all leading drug stores. Trial size only $1.25, but save money; buy the large family and hospital size, only $3.50. If your • druggist does not handle HADACOL, order direct from the LeBlanc Cor poration, Lafayette, La., and when the postman brings your package just pay the amount plus the c.o.d. and postage. If you remit with the order we will pay the postage. Then, if you don’t feel perfertly satisfied after using HADACOL as directed, just return the empty car ton and your money will be cheer- rully refunded. Nothing could be fairer.—Adv.

They are, left to right, Chairman Brent Spence (D ., K y.) of the house banking com m ittee; Chairman Burnet M aybank (D ., S. C.) of the senate banking com m ittee, and Sen. John Sparkman (D ., Ala.) m em ber of the senate banking Com m ittee. They are shown after conferring with President Tru m an on rent control and federal housing aid. ELECTION: Britain's Choice In a little less than a month Britain’s voting populace will m ake an elective decision on the issue of whether to continue with socialism , state planning and na tionalization of industry under the present Labor governm ent or to return to free enterprise with Winston Churchill’s Cdliservative party. In setting February 23 as the date for the general election, Prim e M inister Clem ent Attlee m ust have been acutely aware that this will be far and aw ay the m ost bitterly contested and m om entous election in modern British history. Britain’s 33 .m illion voters will elect a new house of com m ons, w ith the party seating the m ajority of candidates getting the right to form the government. Speculation w as high as to whether defeats within the past two months by the Labor parties in both Australia and N ew Zealand could be taken as a straw in the wind, insofar as the outcom e in England is concerned. M ost in form ed opinion had it that it would be dangerous to predict a downfall of Atlee’s governm ent on the basis of the “down under” elec tions. Chief reason for this thinking w as that the Labor party very recently had been able to show signs of substantial gains in Brit ain’s fight to overcom e poverty. BIG STICK: Union Monopolies Virtually everyone from busboy to bureaucrat probably has, at one tim e or another, discussed the question of whether the tactics used by som e of the larger unions —particularly John L. Lew is’ United Mine Workers—in securing benefits for their m em bers do not constitute a monopoly in restraint of .trade. ON CAPITOL HILL that issue had been presented m ore forceful ly than ever before when 10 sen ators—seven Dem ocrats and three Republicans—sent to the senate judiciary com m ittee a report stat ing that a bill forbidding labor to monopolize control of industry would end the “usurpation and abuse of power” such as currently is being dem onstrated by Lewis’ three-day work w eek in the soft coal m ines. The 10 senators were m em bers of the senate banking com m ittee, which had been investigating the problem of the m iners’ short work week but which had no power to take legislative action in that eco nomic area. THE REPORT pointed out that “If this usurpation and abuse of power to control production and price is tolerated by the congress, its unbridled use will spread from union to union, from industry to industry, and the congress w ill never again regain its own narrow ly circum scribed power to control the econom y of the nation con sistently with the Constitution of the United States.” Soviet W alkout It has been evident for a long tim e that R ussia w ants to elim i nate China’s Nationalist govern m ent, both from the Chinese and international scenes, and is sparing no effort to achieve that end. IN ADDITION to the m ilitary pressure exerted by the Chinese Communists, the Soviets had turned on the heat in the United Nations in a continuing attem pt to get the N ationalist delegation discredited in the security council.' L atest developm ent along those lines cam e when R ussia’s Jacob Malik wrathfully stom ped out of a security council m eeting because the other delegates would not kick out the Nationalist representation. And, said M alik, he would not return to the council as long as the Nationalists sat at the table. M eetings with them present would be a parody, he asserted. And the chief Nationalist delegate, T. F . Tsiang, who w as presiding as Jan uary chairm an over the first coun cil m eeting this year, “represents nobody,” M alik concluded. U.S. BUDGET: No Balance Mr. Truman’s federal budget for the fiscal year starting July I w as not surprising. It w as unbalanced, calling for the governm ent to live more than five billion dollars beyond its incom e during the year —if congress doesn’t pare the fig ures, or give the President the “m oderate” tax hikes he has pro posed. THE OVERALL BUDGET figure w as 42 billion, 439 thousand dollars, but Mr. Truman declared the pro posed spending “vital to our secur ity . . . and to the welfare of our people.” As w as to be expected, Mr. Tru m an insisted the budget w as one of soundest prudence and restraint. He argued that it w as a financial expression the steps the govern m ent ought to take now “to build toward econom ic growth and the expansion of hum an freedom in our own country and in the world.” National defense continued to be the biggest expense in the budget, although expansively covered in that is the m oney being spent in an effort to insure Europe against any further spread of com m unism . An ironical tw ist w as the fact that w hile the U. S. is pouring m oney into Great Britain as a part of that general effort, the British turn right around and give aid, and com fort to com m unism by form al ly recognizing the Communists. AS FOR TAX INCREASES, the President w as silent on specific recom m endations. H e did, how ever, indicate that he would like an earlier date for im position of an increase in social security taxes from one and one-half per cent to two per cent on em ployers and em ployees. The President apparent ly wanted that extra m oney to aid a health-insurance plan, which congress seem s to have little in tention of approving. J if D STUPIDITY REACHES NADIR Soviets Claim U.S. College Girls Spies There appeared no end to the absurdity to which M oscow would go jn scream ing to the world about how it is being im posed upon by low-lifed, unprincipled spies. The latest frenzy of the Soviets in that sphere w as directed at the Swiss branch of Sm ith college for women at Geneva. According to charges from M oscow, Am erican girls at this school are being trained for anti-Soviet spy work. This spy work, the accusation went on, w as to be performed in the Communist-dominated coun tries of E ast Europe. A large group of Sm ith girls are at the Hotel de Russie, studying in the center- of international affairs. They are chaperoned by a m em ber of the college faculty and apparently have im pressed no one else as spies. I'jisss U Dangerous Policy AS- CONGRESS OPENED, two im portant things w ere happen ing to the policy which guides the foreign relations of the U.S.A., and which in the long run either prevents or fom ents war: 1. The British w ere giving us a double-cross in China—at a tim e when U . S. treasury experts say two billions m ore w ill be needed to bail Britain out. 2. Congress would soon begin a vitriolic criticism of U.S. vacilla tion in regard to China. It so happens that the British foreign office is recognizing the Communist governm ent just at a tim e when it w ill hurt the state de partm ent’s relations w ith congress m ost. This is not intentional, but rather because British invest m ents, British trade and the prized British island of Hongkong require protection. M eanwhile Secretary of State Acheson and Secretary of De fense Johnson are engaged In a tug of w ar regarding our Chinese policy, with President Truman stam ping his foot on the sidelines and dem anding definite action, one w ay or the other. Actually, a firm and definite pol icy regarding that heterogeneous m ass of 400 m illion Chinese people speaking 23 different dialects is anything but easy. But there is one policy which the United States has never tried—nam ely, the tact ics used by the Chinese against us. This is the age-old policy of pas sive resistance coupled with the boycott; and probably it is the only policy which w ill work either in China or against China. Reversing W eapons It sounds so sim ple that sophisti cated diplom ats probably won’t consider it. But it has been used scores of tim es by the Chinese against the w estern world, and it w ill work just as effectively if the w estern world uses it against the Chinese com m unists. This weapon m erely consists of cutting off all trade, all communi cations, all contact w ith the Chin ese and letting them stew in their own juice. In one respect, this would be cruel retaliation. For thousands of Chinese would starve; there would be unem ploym ent, rioting and up heaval in Chinese cities. But it is the only w ay by which -the Chinese Communist governm ent can be taught that it cannot seize our consuls, im prison our aviators and treat ns as the Japs once treated Form osans. Furtherm ore it is the only w ay we can prevent the southward rush of com m unism to the Philippines, to French Indo-China, Burm a, the Dutch E ast Indies and India. Today, old-fashioned, dem onstra tions by a few extra warships in Chinese w aters won’t m ean m ore than a flea-bite to the vast and stirring continent of Asia. Nor can w e invade any part of China w ith an arm y. On the other hand, it w ill take novel and world-shaking ac tion to halt the southward rush of com m unism , and the use of China’s own tactics in the form of a boy- cott-blockade is about the only thing that could do it. Otherwise m ost of Asia w ill gradually go under M oscow’s wing. ■ Boycotting W est This writer w as in China when such a boycott w as applied to the w estern world in 1925. Chinese stu dents had been killed by British m arines, and in retaliation the for eign colony of Sham een at Canton w as boycotted by the Chinese. As a result, grass grew in the streets. AU food had to be imported. Not a servant rem ained on the island. Every m orning you saw the A m erican consul sweeping his own office and the Italian consul haul ing ice on a child’s express wagon. In the evening, the French consul m ixed the salad, the British consul cooked the m eat and the Italian consul fixed the dessert at a com m unity dinner. If the Chinese had been sm art enough to tighten this anti - w estern boycott around other cities instead of chiefly Canton, all foreigners would have been ousted. But as us ual, Chinese factions rowed be tw een them selves, and the w estern powers practiced the old policy of divide and rule. Today the reverse is true. The Chinese are now united. FDR Considered Boycoft N earest approach to a western large-scale use of the boycott cam e in 1936 when Adm. WiUiam Leahy, then chief of naval operations, pro posed to President R oosevelt, that the Am erican and British fleets blockade Japanese w aters and cut off all supplies of oil, cotton, copper and scrap iron. To put it across, FDR invited the nine-power pact nations which had guaranteed the sovereignty of China to m eet at B russels in Octo ber 1936.

C. BROADWAY AND MAIN STREET Bogey and Pandas W ere T ame Compared to J. Brutus Booth -By BILLY ROSE There was a lo t of ta lk on Broadway in recent weeks about the incident at the E l Morocco club where Humphrey Bogart was caught w ith his pandas down, and to hear the prissy boys te ll it, unless Bogey stops acting up he’s a cinch to finish behind the w ell-know n eight- ball. W ell, m ebbe so, but I wouldn’t bet on it. It’s m y belief that, if any thing, his daffy didos w ill help his pulling-power at the box office, very m uch as they helped John Barrym ore, W. C. Fields, and other talented screw balls who had the nerve to do w hat the rest of us only daydream about. Billy Bose And don’t let any old-tim er with braid 011 his vest tell you that t h e entertain- m e n t. business wouldn’t have tolerated a Humphrey B o gart in the dear, dead days. Ac cording to the record, the an tics of yester- day’s stars m ake our pres ent crop of per form ers look as pale as who has just seen a man. For easy exam ple, take, say, the great tragedian, Junius Brutus Booth—a nam e to conjure with and m ake faces at.• • • JUNIIJS BRUTUS w as born in England a few years before the 19th century m ade its bow, and by the tim e he w as 13 a servant girl had accused him of being the fath er of her out-of-bounds baby. Dur ing the next four years, am ong other things, he took a crack at being a sailor, a sculptor and the husband of two ladies, without the custom ary divorce in betw een. None of this stunted his growth, however, because by the tim e he w as 20 he had becom e one of the great stars of the London stage. He appeared at Covent Garden as Hichard III, and the following sea son at Drury Lane as Iago to Keane’s Othello. And, unless the record is lying, his success w as so great that a group of envious ac tors started a riot in the theater and tried to bum it down. Offstage, Junius Brutus teas even more spectactdar than on, and if Lauren BacalVs husband bad been sampling the flesh and tvinepots of Piccadilly at the time, chances a r e his capers wouldn’t have rated a morning-after thought. Booth, so goes the story, made so many passes and passed out so many times that finally, at the insistence of husbands,' bar tenders a n d bobbies, he packed and skedaddled to New York. H ere, he proceeded to revolution ize m ost of our acting techniques and, despite the enormous quanti ties of woozle-water he consumed, he never let his audiences down. At one m atinee, he w as literally car ried into the theater, and w hile the m anager w as splashing w ater on his face the custom ers began to yell for the show to go on. Annoyed by their catcalls, the tragedian stuck his face through th e curtain and roared, ttVm drunk now, but in ten minutes Fll give you the greatest King Lear you ever saw." And he did. Another tim e, he went into a pawnshop to borrow $10, pledged him self as security, spent the ten ner on Jersey applejack, and then, as per prom ise, cam e back and squatted in the pawnbroker’s win- V- //IT HAS TAKEN LONG y : I T has taken long for me to learn The simple lessons that the MaSter taught; To consider the lilies as their petals burn f Among the wayside grasses, to take no thought Of a tomorrow that may never bring / Some direful, long anticipated thing, To mark the sparrows on a windy Stem Lashing and dipping in a day of Storm, And to remember that He cares for them, And shelters them and keeps them from all harm; And that I am more valuable than they To Him who walks beside me day by day. ^ "Let not your heart be troubled ...” —these His words Should have been learned and heeded long ago.

One night w hile playing “Rich ard H I,” he suddenly decided to re vise Shakespeare’s script, a n d when it cam e to the duel scene in the last act he began slashing aw ay at the young actor playing the role of Richmond. The episode ended with his chasing the kid out the stage door and several blocks down the Bowery. The Fiction ENTERPRISE PAYS Rkhord H. Wilkinson Corner Minute Fiction PAUL SPARROW’S vaudeville act wasn’t especially good, nor w as it especially poor. H e did a couple of trick dance steps, told som e fairly funny stories and sang a couple of songs. There w ere doz ens better than he. Y et Paul alw ays played the big tim e, alw ays got the best m oney. We who w ere in show business at the tim e, wondered. The answ er w as sim ple when you stopped to think about it. Paul w as enterprising. H e gave him self a build up. For one thing he selected his m u sic with care. He in structed the or chestra w hat to play and how to play it before he cam e on. H e m ade a stooge of the drummer. He sold the idea, general ly. that he w as terrific. IVe all expected that Panl would be am ong the first to go. But he w asn’t. I didn’t see him for alm ost a year, then one fall up in San Francisco, I ran across him again. It w as rather a unique experience, because the gag he pulled that night was epic. It seem s that, despite his enter prising faculties, Paul w as due to get the air. He had exhausted his bag of tricks. M anagers w ere get ting w ise to him . On this night he was trying out at the Olym pia Theater. M ost of us thought it would be his sw an song. On the other hand, if he w ent over big with his audience it would m ean a 40-week contract. There w asn’t a chance. We watched him com e out from the opposite side of the w ings. He w as doing a quick little dance step. There w as a sm attering of applause that alm ost instantly died away. “ W ell,” grinned P au l, “H you’re serious, that’s fine . . . if m y gag took in an old troup er like you, it worked better than I thought it would.” Paul hesitated, then w ent into a routine. It w as pitiful, because the step w as rotten and he had appar ently lost his self-confidence to boot. w as standing so I could Paul’s face. For the first tim e since I’d known him I saw anger in his eyes, a red Hash in his cheeks. He stopped danc ing. I see “A ll right,” he said. “A ll right, w ise guys, I’ll show you.” The hecklers booed at him , shouted catcalls. Paul’s face went livid. H e suddenly galvanized into action. IHATE SE E N som e good trick dancers In m y day, but I’ve never seen anything to equal the antics of Paul Sparrow that night. Thoroughly aroused, he becam e a contortionist. H e performed feats that w ere unheard of in the art of dancing. He threw him self around that stage like a m adm an. It w as m arvelous to w atch. Superbl P au l cgm e out for three encores. H e w as a'm an inspired each tim e, and each tim e the audience gave him an ovation. They clapped for five full m inutes after his last ap pearance. A fter a while I strolled back to Paul’s dressing room . The m anager w as just leaving. Inside, Paul w as happily folding up a sheet of paper. I could tell by the expression on his face that it w as the contract. “ H ello, feller,” I grinned. "You killed ’em . I guess the thing to do if you w ant to stay in vaudeville Hiese days is get m ad.” “Why,” he said, surprised. “Did you think I w as m ad? I w asn’t.” “ Don’t kid m e. Those hecklers had you down for the count.” “W ell,” grinned Paul, “if you’re serious that’s fine. I m ean, if m y little gag took in an old trooper like yourself, it even worked better than I thought it would.” “W ait a m inute,” I said, begin ning to feel funny. “W hat are you getting at?” “It w as a gag, old horse. I hired three hecklers to do the job—you know, m ake the audience feel sym pathetic toward m e by having scath ing rem arks hurled at m e. Then I pulled m y trick. M y new step. It really w asn’t m uch of a step, you know. It only seem ed that w ay. The audience w as sym pathetic. They would have liked anything I did.” He grinned broadly, “You see, I was on the skids. I had to think of som ething. I tell you, friend, if you w ant to stay in vaudeville these days, you’ve got to be enterpris ing.” CROSSWORD PUZZLE LAST WEEK S ANSWER ACROSS IiDrench S.

Stories about the caper- ous crackpot were repeated around every pot-bellied stove—and little wonder. For instance, while taking an ocean voyage, the ship passed the spot w here an actor nam ed Conway had com m itted suicide by drowning. Junius Brutus suddenly appeared on deck and yelled, “I have a m essage for Conway,” and dove overboard. And for the next 30 m inutes, he played w ater-tag with the sailors who jum ped in to fish him out. In his finale years, Booth took up the study of Buddhism a n d developed so great a horror of inflicting death that be would burst into tears if someone hap pened to step on a bug. He fi nanced a campaign against hunt ing and, while on tour one au tumn, enraged at th e wanton killing of birds, he bought a cemetery plot and held a funeral for some pigeons a sportsman had shot.

Makinq The Best of Handicaps Rev. Walter E. henbour. Bitfh Point. R 4. Perhaps there are more or less handicaps that confront every life as we go through this world. In. deed <iome have far greater handi caps than others, but none are to. tally free. Some are handicapped physically, as they have bodily ail ments, bodily disability, to contend with. Many people are deaf or blind, crippled or bedridden. Some are diseased in such a way that they will never he well. Physical handicaps are many. Many people are handicapped in life bv a poor memory, or a very dull mind. It is difficult for them to grasp <ind retain knowledge and truth. They sometimes lament such a handicap. To be mentailv dull may seem bad, but it could be worse. Thank God that it isn’t. Some poople are handicapped by sinful, godless' homes, and by evil, wicked environment. In fact this is one of the conditions that bold multitudes of people down and keep them back in life so they ne> vcr rise np and strive for some great goal. Perhaps the masses of mankind feel that they are handicapped fin. ancially, as the greater part of the human family are poor. Many peo ple think they could achieve suc cess if it were not for poverty. Others are confronted by various other handicaps or hindrances. Bad habits certainly handicap people everywhere They are held down and kept back in life’s race by bad 4nd ruinous habits until they nev er reach the goal. However, we believe that the masses of those who do succeed in life hqve to surmount and master handicaps. They have things to fight against, and opposing forces to meet, which requires faith in God, faith in themselves, will pow er, grit and grace, determination, patience and perseverance, hacked up bv a sincere desire, aim, plan and Dtirpose to make tbe very best of life possible. Thev prav and trust God to lead them out of dif* ficulties, out of clouds and obscuri ties, and upward and heavenward. CertaWy such people will accom plish something in life good, great *nd worth while. Every sould should be determined t 0 meet handicanps bravely, and bv God’s grace, snrmount tham, or txake the best of them. Chicken Eaters Raleigh—It’s been a hey day for chicken lovers recently—that is for the people who eat ’em —not tbe folks who raise ’em. However, the current low prices for broilers should not discourage poultrymen from buying chicks now for future broiler production. The experts point out that, the broiler market occasionally becomes flooded to a point where prices fai' below production costs. But, they also point out that failure to put in broiler chicks now will tend to create tbe same situation again later. C. F. Parrish, tbe head of the- extension poultry work at North CaroIin- State College, says occas. tonal oversnpply is to be expected, Parrish says poultrymen should re. alize that such a condition is only temporary and that k is necessary to produre broilers every week in the yea> if market outlets are to be maintained. He also poiuts out that broiler chicks going into the brooder house now will not be ready for sale un til the last of March. And, be says, indications now are that there will he a scarcity of broilers on tbe market between March 20'h and Apr I 15th. Parrisb says farmers who put chicks now can expect to realize a fair return for their labor and investment.

Four days after the end of their honeym oon a couple receivd in the m ailbox at their little love-nest a pair of tickets to a hit show on Broadway. With the tickets was a note which read: “G uess who sent these.” On the appointed evening th ey went to the theater, returning very late. To their astonishm ent, every thing of any value in the house had been rem oved. On the living room table they found a note: “Now you know.” Natural Alarm There is a valley in Scotland noted for its long echo. A Scot w as dem onstrating the echo to a Sw iss visitor one morning and they tim ed it. It took exactly three m inutes for the original “Hallo” to com e back to them . The Scotchm an looked proud. “I im agine ye have som e pretty fine echoes in Switzerland,” he con ceded, “but do ye have anything that lasts as long as that?” The yodeler thought a m om ent. “I believe we have som ething that m ight com pare with it,” he said. “In fact, there is a valley near my hom e town that had a rather good echo. When I go to bed each night I put m y head out the window and shout, ‘W ake up, wake up. Tim e to get up.’ and eight hours later the echo returns and serves as m y alarm clock.” COULDN’T SFABE-IT “It’s a sad case,” the doctor said. “I am afraid your w ife’s mind is gone, Mr. Flaherty.” “I’m not surprised a bit, doc,” answered Flaherty. “She’s been giving m e a piece of it every day for the past 12 years.” Uncle Sam Says Here’s a good 1950 resolution: “I will start today taking advantage of the safe, sure way ot saving by purchasing II.

TrMiiifj Dtptnmeni Breed Cattle tor Fall Production Farmers who sell milk and have not bred their cows thus far this winter are advised to breed them as earlv as possibly in order for them to freshen next fall. Prac tically all farmers who sold millr during the summer of 1949 are well aware of the surplus milk which caused a much lower in come for most farmers. Part of this surplus was due to the fact that too many cows freshened during die spring and summer Experiments conducted in various parts of the country prove that a cow will give ten percent more milk during the lactation period if if she freshens in the fall. There is always a greater demand for milk during the fall and winter than during the spring and sum mer. Eventhough milk might be pro duced a Iitde eheaper due to bet ter grazing during the spring and summer, it proved to be fairiy ex pensive if a reasonably amount of milk is declared surplus and Jow- prices are received for it. The Davie County Artificial Breeding Association has been doing well since early fall in both the num ber of cows that are being bred each month and in the conc p- tion rate percentage. Conception in running between 60 and 65 percent on first services in the en tire county. That is a little bet ter than the state average for arti- cial breeding. There are several hundred calves resulting from ar tificial breeding in Davie County. The heifer calves, ore being saved for heard replacements and to in crease herds. I do not believe that they could be bought at any thing near a reasonable price be cause they are valued too highly be their owners. Some of these heifers resulting from artificial breeding have already been bred artificially themselves. When they become fresh that will be the real pay-off of the Artificial Breed ing Program. Farmers who have Iiot used this service will be con siderably behind those who have used the service when these heif ers resulting from artificial breed ing come into production. Wood row W. Howell, Artificial breed ing technidal is in his office in the basement of the courthouse between 8:30 and 10:00 every morning. People interested in using the services of this associa tion are advised to get in touch with Mr. Howell by 10:00 at which time he goes to make his calls. F. E.

I don’t know what kind of hat this is,” Truman continued, “but I’ll show you how to fix it.” Showing he hadn’t lost his touch as a haberdasher, Truman ..flipped the hat into shape and planted it cerem oniously on Rayburn’s head. As the guests roared, Rayburn yanked it down over his ears. The President also kidded Ray burn about his age. “V ice - President Barkley tells m e when he w as a kid, he used to listen to Sam on the lecture plat form ," Truman confided. “But, in view of Barkley’s known-age, I can’t understand how Sam can be just 68.” Florida vs. Texas F irst course at the luncheon in honor of a fam ous Texan w as grapefruit, which caused the Pres ident to rem ark: “I understand this grapefruit cam e from Florida.” “ Y es, I am sure this is Florida grapefruit,” agreed Chief Justice Fred Vinson. “Now I know it is Florida grapefruit,” declared the Pres ident, “ because the suprem e court has already handed down a decision that it’s Florida grapefruit.” “You’ll have to w ait until I pre pare m y dissent,” differed Justice Tom Clark, a Texan. “I am go ing to claim that it cam e from T exas.” Bipartisan Birthday The luncheon w as attended by both D em ocrats and Republicans, all close friends of the speaker. This caused Sen. Lyndon Johnson, m aster of cerem onies, to announce it w as a “bipartisan birthday luncheon.” Later he introduced Rayburn as “ a m an who has m ade his friends proud and his critics asham ed.” With a voice som etim es choked with em otion, Rayburn told how he was one of 11 children, spoke of their early troubles and struggles, boasted that seven still cam e hom e for Christm as dinner last year. Rayburn w ent on to say that he believed “97 or 98 per cent of the world are good people and have good in them . I haven’t any room in m y heart or tim e in m y life for hatred. I love people and I be lieve in them .... under the lead ership . of a plain m an from the farm lands of M issouri, w e have taken the courage to lead the world for good and righteousness, I believe w e w ill succeed.” Small Business Champ The house sm all business com m ittee w ill dish out som e unsav ory, but important, facts on the alarm ing growth of monopoly in a forthcom ing report to congress.

KENNETH J. FOREMAN SCRIPTURE J Acts 13:£—14-28. DEVOTIONAL READING: Isaiah 49:1 13. Gospel Goes West I Lesson for February 12, 1950 DON’T BELIEVE in m issions? Then youSO YOU foreign can’t read the New Testam ent with any comfort. E very book in it was written either by a m issionary, or about m issionaries, or to m ission aries, or to be used in m ission work. Chapters 13 and 14 of A cts tell us about the first or ganized foreign m ission project in the history of the .Christian church. It is the story of how th e Gospel was taken out of the narrow strip of coastland along Dr. Forem an the eastern shore of the M editer ranean, where it w as bom , out into the w estern world.« * • The B est They Had THE FIRST m issionary party w ere not raw untried m en. They were Barnabas and Saul, the top leaders of Antioch. These m en had done a great work in Antioch; their usefulness there w as not at an end by any m eans. But the church sent them aw ay to win souls elsew here. It is a m istake to suppose that, just anybody w ill do as a m issionary. Ignorant people who suppose that m issionaries are only the “ culls” of the church don’t know the facts. A few years ago a scientist, Ellsw orth Hunt ington, m ade a study of the graduates of Yale and Harvard who w ere successful enough to be w ritten up in “Who’s Who in Am erica.” He found that m issionaries’ sons.furnished the largest proportion of those suc cessful m en. The reason for this, he believed, is that only in m issionary fam ilies do you find that both parents, and not just one, have to go through a rigid sifting process. Only the best —m entally, m orally, physically— are accepted by the church today as m issionaries.* * • Strategic C enters SAUL, or Paul, who cam e rapid ly to the front in the m ission ary team , w as all for efficiency, He never did a thing the hard way if an easier’w ay would save his en ergy. So w e find him heading for the great centers of population. In the synagogues he would find the m ost religious people in the city, people who already believed in the One God and who took seriously the Law and the Prophets. Barnabas and Saul stuck to cities for another reason also. N ot thai they despised sm all-town folk, but they knew that cities are w here the crowds are. For every dozen peo ple they could reach in a village’, there were hundreds to be reached in the cities. So today, m ission work has generally concentrated first in the m ost heavily settled regions. * * * The Follow -U p SAUL AND BARNABAS also set the exam ple for later genera tions in their use of the “follow- up.” They did not suppose that sim ply converting people was enough. There had to be second visits. Som e churches Paul vis ited as m any as five tim es. They would appoint officers in every church. They knew that organized religion is m ore likely to last than disorganized religion. They were not fly-by-night evangelists, lea v in g behind them only an ebbing w ave of em otional excitem ent. E very rose grower knows that it is better to put a 10-cent rose in a 50-cent hole than to put a 50-cent rose into a 10-cent hole. So Paul did not stick little seed lings of new Christians into barren ground at random ; he took pains to see that they w ere solidly planted in good rose-beds.• * * The H oly Spirit •THERE IS ANOTHER, and most ■A important, w ay in which this first m issionary effort has set the pace for all since: From beginning to end, they depended on the Holy Spirit. It w as the Spirit who Crsl suggested the idea; it w as the Spirit, who gave the power, and furnished the guidance. N ot that the Spirit was or is a 'substitute tor human effort. But to this very day, if you w ant to find persons who know about the Holy Spirit at first hand, who know what it m eans to depend on the Spirit and to be used by H im , then get ac quainted with your church’s m issionaries. What to so m any of us church goers is- only a nam e, to them is the deepest reality by which they live. ^ ; SEWING CIRCLE P A nE R N S Softly Draped for Afternoons W ell Styled Shirtwaist Dress ’$ 5 0 9 3 6-52 P leasing to Figure HE R E ’S A charm ing afternoon dress designed to please the slightly larger figure.

MUTUALIZATION of insurance —that is, ownership by policy-hold ers. Jobs for all. Increase in production, lowering costs and increasing imports. More and cheaper food. A hom e for every fam ily. No shelter for private enter prise “behind price rings and rigged m arkets.” EFFORTS FOR PEACE in a “realistic” m anner, and willing ness to cooperate with Russia, as “with any other country that is prepared to work for peace and friendship.” Strengthening of the association of the com m onwealths and the At lantic pact. t An am bitious program surely and one which m ust command som e m easure of respect if only for its declining to retreat in the face of what m ight seem to. be a dangerous situation. WAR POTENTIAL: U. S. Gains Cited W hile the national com m ittee for aeronautics reported that “it is logical to assum e” Russia is working hard to develop super- speed warplanes to deliver atom ic weapons, it also reported continu ing Am erican gains in the “race for air leadership.” The com m ittee called for efforts to “consolidate these gains and push forward.” THE AGENCY reporting is the governm ent’s chief organization for basic aviation research and, consequently, should know what it is talking about. The com m ittee dropped one not- so-cheering note, however, by pointing out that any nation that wants to m ake the effort can build “ practical m ilitary airplanes” able to fly faster than sound. “Superior-speed,” t h e report continued, “is- generally acknowl edged to be the m ost important single elem ent in successful air attack and in defense against at tack. Range also is important. The attainm ent of long range poses a m ost difficult problem .” AND THEN the report’s punch line: “As in "the case of the atom ic bomb, A m erica cannot expect to enjoy an exclusive advantage—at best it can only plan by vigorous and tim ely research to stay ahead of any potential enem y . . GIVEAWAY DUE Potatoes The governm ent announced it w as going to "give aw ay” som e of the enormous stocks of potatoes which it bought to keep prices up —but, as usual, there w as a catch to it. N ot everyone could get the potatoes, and it was not as “free” as it appeared. THE POTATOES, it appeared, would go only to the school lunch program, the bureau of Indian af fairs, public and private welfare agencies in this country and pri vate agencies doing relief abroad. However, that w as a m ove which should elicit no criticism , inas m uch as it savored m ore of intel ligent governm ent in action than m ost bureaucratic actions. H ere’s the catch: FOR the school lunch, and som e private institutions, the “give aw ay” program m eans they w ill have to start paying som ething to get potatoes they once got without having to pay out a nickel. The reason for that, it w as explained, is that for m any years the govern m ent had a surplus-crop disposal program, for which congress ap propriated funds. This m eant com m odities could be delivered to ■schools free. Now, all that’s changed, there is no free-delivery fund, so school lunches w ill have to pay transpor tation for its “free” com m odities. VETS' BONUS: Added Support The battle lines for the fight to obtain a bonus for veterans of World War II has been strength ened by support from the Am vets, a World War II organization. M eanwhile, the Veterans of For eign W ars renewed its long-stand ing bonus appeal. THUS, two m ajor veterans’ or ganizations standing shoulder to shoulder on the proposition that the nation should reward their war services with a bonus. Harold R ussell, A m vets national com m ander, told the house veter ans’ affairs com m ittee that “by every standard of equity the bonus is justifiable.” Certainly the GI’s of Conflict Two had a precedence in the case of the Doughboys of World War I. And, rem em bering history, they would not be too disappointed at early delays, inasm uch as it took quite a tim e for the World War I veterans to obtain passage of a bonus bill. THE AMVETS and the VFW were agreed that the rate of com pensation for veterans should be S3 a day for service in this coun try, and $4 a day for service over seas. This would m ean that a m ax imum bonus would be $4,500, with an extra bonus for m en who were wounded in action. The question of a bonus for men who have defended • their country in tim e of war is one of the m ost difficult with which a people may w restle. There is the vast gratitude and appreciation of service on the one hand, and on the other a con ception of patriotism and duty, solidified m ost often by lack ol necessary funds with which to re ward the warriors. SIMMERING DOWN Little Chance Seen for Major Tax Hike When a top D em ocrat in Presi dent Truihan’s adm inistration calls for a three-billion-dollar cut in fed eral taxes, indications are that Mr. Trum an’s original plan for a tax hike has been abandoned. Wlien the President first pro posed an increase in taxes, he was in a fighting mood. He had just been elected in his own right as President despite general opinion that he would be defeated, and his tax dem ands m ay have been in the m anner of a challenge to congress. Since then Mr. Truman appears to have m ellowed in his tax ideas. The tax-slash proposal w as m ade by senate finance com m ittee Chair man George, a Georgia Dem ocrat, who, at the sam e tim e, also called for governm ent econom y to erase half the anticipated deficit. TRUMAN: Up & At 'Em! Apparently eager to accept every rebuff as a challenger, President Truman let it be known' that he would “fight all sum m er,” if nec essary, to obtain congressional ap proval of his civic rights program. THE PRESIDENT m ade it very plain that he desires every m em ber of congress to be put on rec ord regarding the program. The highly controversial issue f o I which the President is still battling caused a split in the Dem ocratic party ranks during the 1948 presi dential cam paign—and prom ises tc do so again. The President w as particularly incensed with the coalition of south- em D em ocrats and northern Re publicans which stands ready tc oppose the program to the last ditch. The m easure over which there has been such bitter recrim ina tions would establish a federal com m ission to com bat discrim ina tion in the hiring of N egroes and other m inority groups. THE SOUTH, usually rock- ribbed in its stand for the Demo crats, doesn’t want the m easure, and its representatives are pre pared to resist it in every way possible, the usual recourse being parliam entary procedure and the rules of the senate. Precipitation of the row cam e with the effort by opponents of the program to do aw ay with a house rule which would let the house take aw ay from com m ittee a bill bottled up for as m any as 21 days. U ntil last year the house rules com- m ittee could stifle legislation to a great degree by holding up such bills as it chose. Now, Truman’s opponents want that power re stored. Mr. Truman w as hoping the m aneuver would be defeated. MINERS: Cash, Please! In m ost of the long, involved struggle of the coal m iners and their leader, John L. Lewis, vs. the coal operators, the workers were able to continue credit at company stores and thus m anage to exist through long strike periods. In the current phase of the ever- recurrent controversy, that w as the case until a few w eeks ago when rebel m iners, bucking L ew is’ three-day work w eek order, went on strike. Shutdowns occurred in six coal-producing states as roving bands of pickets flouted Lew is’ leadership. THE UNITED M INE WORKER rebels declared they were tired of working a three-day w eek a n d wanted a “showdown” in their dis pute with the operators. They were falling back on the old m iner slo gan: “No contract—no work.” But this tim e they encountered a m ove which would have grave effect on their position. M ine own ers replied with a policy of their own: “No work—no credit.” Sev eral large com panies, including U. S. Steel and m ost southern op erators, told the m iners they would get no m ore credit at company stores while they stayed aw ay from work. ONE INDUSTRY LEADER esti m ated that m iners had received 60 m illion dollars in credit since the “no-day-week” and the three- day w eek went into effect. Others said it w as just bad business to keep extending credit under such conditions. Thus there appeared to be build ing up a situation rife with danger ous possibilities.

Hadacol Helps No. Carolina Man Work Long Hours Thrare is plenty of hard work and iong hoars in the retail grocery business, and this is especially true for Paul Earnhardt, 816 South Church St., In Salisbury, N. C. Mt. Earnhardt works long hours at the Earnhardt Super Market in Salis bury, one of the largest and most modern grocery stores in that thriv ing section of North Carolina. The grind began to tell on Mr. Earnhardt about three months ago and he wondered for a time whether he would be able to carry on at the same rigid pace. But that was before he heard the blessed news about HADACOL. u,i f.; JPIIPvV ' r-X, Iiiiii & v S: ■ S? *41 Jt > v 4 , I Mr. Earnhardt “I have been taking HADACOL for three months,” said Mr. Earn hardt. “I was weak, run down, nervous, had difficulty sleeping at night, nervous indigestion, gastric disturbances, headaches, suffered with stomach bloating and gas pains around my heart. After the third bottle, I started gaining weight, was relieved of stomach bloating, had no gastric disturbances, head aches or gas pains. I never felt bet ter and work long hours. I recom mend HADACOL.” Mr. Earnhardt, like sq many thou sands of other suffering people, had tried many preparations without beneficial results before he heard the wonderful news about HADACOL. Mr. Earnhardt puts in long, hard hours at the Earnhardt Grocery store now, b u t|is again his usual cheerful self, aiid when his friends comment on his improvement he advises them to give HADACOL a trial. Mr. Earnhardt was suffering from a Iadk of B Vitamins and the Miner als which HADACOL contains. HADACOL comes to you in liquid form, easily assimilated in the blood stream so that it can go to work right away. A lack of only a small amount of B Vitamins and certain Minerals will cause digestive disturbances... Your food will not agree with you... You will have an upset stom ach... You will suffer from heartburn, gas pains and your food will sour on your stomach and you will not be able to eat the things you like for fear of being in misery afterwards.11 Many people also suffer from con stipation. And while these symptoms may be the results of other causes, they are surely and certainly the signs of lack of B Vitamins and Minerals which HADACOL contains. And if you suffer from such a de ficiency disorder, there is no known cure except the administration of the vitamins and minerals which your system lacks. It is easy to understand, there fore, why countless thousands have been benefited by this amazing tonic, HADACOL. So it matters not how old you are or who you are . . •. it matters not where you live or if you have tried all the medicines under the sun, give this wonderful preparation HADA COL a trial. Don’t go on suffering. Don’t continue to lead a miserable life. Many persons who have suf fered and waited for 10 to 20 years or even longer, are able now to live happy, comfortable lives because HADACOL supplied the vitamins and minerals which their systems needed. Be fair to yourself. Tempo rary relief is not enough for you. Give HADACOL a trial! Don’t be misled! rifccept no substi tute! Insist on the genuine HADA COL! Sold at all leading drug stores. Trial size only $1.25, but save money; buy the large family and hospital size, only $3.50. If your druggist does not handle HADACOL, order direct from The LeBlanc Cor poration, Lafayettee, La., and when the postman brings your package just pay the amount plus the c.o.d. and postage. It you remit with the order we will pay the postage. Then, if you don’t feel perfectly satisfied after using HADACOL as directed, just return the empty car ton and your money will be cheer fully refunded- Nothing could he fairer.—Adv. I If yol quick.

FEBRUARY 1.1950 Ntw Mofion liam era Lens Developed by Scientists University of Rochester scien tists have developed a new motion picture cam era m ade from artifi cial sapphire which is believed to have several advantages over op tical glass lenses. This w as revealed by Dr. Robert E. Hopkins, associate professor of optics, and Dr. Brian O’Brien, pro fessor of physiological optics and director of the institute of optics at the U niversity of Rochester. In perfecting the sapphire lens, the R ochester researchers have overcom e difficulties which de layed its developm ent for m any years. The Zeiss com pany of Ger m any gave up on the problem 20 years ago, it w as said. One advantage of the sapphire lens is its extrem e hardness. It is second only to the diamond in the hardness of natural gem s. U sed for the outside elem ent of an optical system , it is alm ost impos sible to scratch it. In fact, it can be cleaned by scouring with sand without injury, Dr. O’Brien said. The sapphire lens’ high refrac tive index and low dispersion gives the lens designer far greater freedom in elim inating aberrations and im proving the quality and sharpness of im ages produced, the Rochester men reported. "Light, in entering sapphire from the air, is slowed down to only a little m ore than half its speed," Dr. O'Brien explained. "The bending of light rays by a lens is thus accom plished with flatter lens curves and m any ad vantages are derived from this. In addition to having the very high refractive index, sapphire has what is known as a very low dis persion. That is, the refractive in dex changes very little with the color of the light, and no glass a-3 yet discovered can com pare with sapphire in the combination of these two properties.” Seientlst Finds Sea Gow Skeleton in California Skeletal rem ains of an ancient sea cow which inhabitated the earth som e 30 million years ago have been unearthed from fossil deposits near Coalinga by a Uni versity of California scientist. Fossilized teeth and jaw s of the ancient beast had been found earlier, but his place among the anim als of the prehistoric world long has been a question m art among m en of science. The fine w ill m ake possible a new under standing of the sea cow and its relationship to other m am m als. The sea cow which belongs to an order of m am m als known techni cally as the Sirenians, apparently has alw ays been rare on the earth. Previous to the Coalinga dis covery, only two skulls, two par tial jaw s and som e of the teeth of the beast had been unearthed by fossil hunters. Because of the com plete lack of a skeleton its relation ship with other anim als has never been definitely settled. The Siren ians are best known as forming the basis for legends of the mer m aids, creatures which are con sidered to be half human and half fish. The rem ains of the sea cow were unearthed by Roy H. Reinhart, teaching assistant in paleontology. National Park Travel Tlie number of visitors to the national parks and other areas ad m inistered by the national park service again broke all records in 1949. Total travel for the year (which runs from October I to Septem ber 30) amounted to 31,864,- 180, eight per cent more than 1948’s high of 29,608,318, and this despite transfer on July I to the corps of engineers of adm inistration of the Lake Texom a recreational area, in Oklahoma and Texa3. E ven with out the approxim ately 2,000,000 visitors to Lake Texom a up to June 20, the total travel reported ex ceeded that of 1948 by m ore than • quarter of a million. Traffic Death Statistics The honeymon is over in post war traffic safety, the National Safey council declares. It is now apparent, the council says, that the steady reduction of the traffic death toll since the end of the war has leveled off, and unless a new incentive for safer driving and walking can be found, the nation can reconcile itself to an annual loss of about 32,000 Uves in traffic. That conclusion is based on the council’s nine-month tabulation of 22,320 traffic deaths for 1949—only 2 per cent few er than the 22.750 death toll at the end of Septem ber, 1948. The Septem ber 1949 toll was 3.060 deaths—about the sam e as in Septem ber, 1948.

Do You Want To Cut Your Federal Taxes? Overlapping Bureaus The Executive Department of the Federal Government has grown from small beginnings into a mighty colossus composed of 1,812 separate DureauB and agencies employing 2,- 090,554 civilian workers with an an nual payroll of-more than $6,000,000,- 000.00. This growth was haphazard. What happened was that when a job needed to be done, an agency was hurriedly set up by executive order, or created by Congress. We are now paying for all these mistakes. On July 7, 1947, Congress authoriz ed, by unanimous vote, the launching of the greatest effort yet made to plan an efficient, economical government reorganization. With the approval nf President Truman, a bi-partisan, twelve-man commission, headed by former President Hoover, was estab lished. This Commission found many discouragingexamples of the confusion in our government machinery, and has made concrete suggestion to correct these ills. As matters stand, when you attempt to deal with your government, you will find 34 agencies engaged in ob taining land, 10 in Federal construc tion work, 9 in credit and finance and 50 in gathering statistics. A rancher desiring to pasture his livestock on public lands must obtain separate per mits, each containing different terms and conditions, from both the Depart ment of Interior and the Department of Agriculture. The Army Engineers and the Re clamation Bureau cost the taxpayers untold miilions of dollars through dup lication of effort on water resources development. As an instance of th is wasteful duplication, the Hungry Horse Project in Montana was esti mated to'C O gt $6,300,000.' The actual cost was $93,500,000. In New Orleans, there are 5 Fed eral hospitals operated separately by different branches of the government. Their joint capacity is 1,620 beds. When surveyed, they had a total of 913 patients.

Our County And 1Social Sechrity Bv W. K. White. Manager. I wonder how many of my read ers realize what an important part the undertakers play in assisting them. At the time of the death of a loved one, the family is so upset that many times important mat ters would go unattended to were it not for the services of the un dertaker. In addition to many other courtesies, the undertaker inquires of the family where the deceased worked and whether or not he had a Social Security Ac count Number Card. He isn’t asking this information out of idle curiosity; he is personal.v in. terested in seeing that each of his clients who may be entitled to re ceive Social Securitv payments is contacted by the Social Security Administration. If t!.e undertak er learns that the deceased has had an account number card, he sends the name of the deceased to our office, and we follow thru from that point. If a man dies and is survived by a widow and children under 18 years of age, if. her husband has worked a sufficient length of time in employment that is covered by the Social Securitv Act, the wid ow will receive payments for her self and the children until the voungest child reaehes age 18. When the youngest child reaches age 18, all payments cease; how ever, if the widow doesn’t remar ry, she will again begin receiving her widow’s insurance payments wSen she reaches age 65. These payments to the widow and children are just two of sev eral types of payments which are made when an insured worker dies. From week to week, I will discuss other types of payments. Social Security pays monthly benefits to retired workers at age 65 and to the fami'y when the worker dies. BUT, the benefits are paid ONLY if claimed. Don’t lose benefits.

Coalition Effective T JE R B IS HOW the Republican- D ixiecrat coalition is riding roughshod over the right of free dem ocratic processes in the house of representatives. M eeting behind closed doors in the rules com m ittee the Republi- crat coalition not only demanded ■ the reinstatem ent of the old gag rule by which the com m ittee can bottle up any bill, but even refused to let Chairman Adolph Sabath of Illinois, who opposed the gag rule, speak. E ach tim e the 83-year-old Sabath started to talk he w as shouted down with cries of “vote I —vote!” by Dem ocrats Gene Cox of Georgia and Howard Sm ith of Virginia and their Republican co horts. Finally, GOP Congressman Leo Allen of Illinois took pity on the little chairman. “He has a right to talk,” pleaded Allen, above the bedlam . “L et him speak for two or three m inutes.” Sabath didn’t appreciate the hu m or in this. He w as so riled by the roughhouse tactics of the coalition ists that he alm ost choked up. “We ought to at least have a public hearing, so that oppon ents of this resolution can he heard,” he dem anded. “This is a m atter of vital concern to every m em ber of the house. Since w e repealed the gag pro cedure last year, this commit tee voted out 55 rules on bills and resolutions, the greatest number in history. “Some of you say that the resolu tion w ill give the com m ittee m ore power—that is, power to stifle leg islation which you oppose. As com m ittee chairm an, I don’t want that kind of power. I want to protect the rights of the house m em ber ship.” Backslider However, Sabath’s motion to post pone action on the Cox resolution and to give house m em bers a right to testify for or against it at a pub lic hearing w as sm othered under a 7-4 vote. The three m em bers who joined Sabath for a free discussion w ere: D em ocrats Ray Madden of Indiana, Jolm Lyle of Texas, and Jam es Delaney of New York. The seven who voted for im m edi ate action without a public hearing were: Dem ocrats Cox, Sm ith and W illiam Coler, of M ississippi, and Republicans Allen, Clarence Brown of Ohio, Jam es Wadsworth of New York, and Christian Herter of M assachusetts. Lyle of Texas and D elaney of N ew York, however, backslid into Republicrat ranks on the final, 9-2 vote for the gag rule, leaving Sab- ath and Madden standing alone .against it. D elaney, who usually supports the F air Deal, som ewhat sheepishly explained his defection by saying that he wanted to restore the power and “prestige” of the com m ittee which, he contended, w as abolished by last year’s rules reform. What this amounts to, though De laney didn’t say so, is that the N ew Yorker favors giving seven m en on the rules com m ittee more power than 500 other m em bers of con gress. M inors Hot Protected From the nation’s rogues gal leries, the children’s bureau has dug up a sham eful, shocking story. It is a side of Am erican life that isn’t generally known, but the bu reau estim ates close to 100,000 chil dren w ere thrown into adult jails last year alongside, hardened crim i nals. Youngsters were even found shov eling dirt on road gangs and serv ing sentences in state pententia- ries. These were not m ere isolated cases, but m ight have happened right in your hom e county, for in 34 of the 48 states children w ere discovered in Jail with grownups despite the fact that m ost of these sam e states have law s protecting children from such treatm ent. Not only were juveniles often found in filthy jails with foul toilets, splotched m attresses, and with roaches running along the w alls, but in som e instances yougsters were lodged in the sam e cells with murderers and rapists. In Taylorsville, K y., a 13-year-old runaway boy was locked up in a two-cell log jail for four days with a scream ing, laughing m aniac. A 10-year-old Negro boy was sentenced to the South Carolina state peniten tiary by Circuit Judge M . A. Alann in Abbeville, S. C. In W ashington, D. C., the chil dren’s bureau found 14- and 15-year- old boys working on the road gang in Fairfax, Va- ' Schools for Crime Criminal studies show that jail doesn’t cure as much crim e as it breeds, especially when juveniles are locked up with professional crim inals. For cellm ates don’t m ake the best teachers, and send ing children to jail is actually like putting them through a school in crim e. A better method of handling young lawbreakers has been worked out by the Big Brothers of Am erica, now celebrating national B ig Brother week. -WCfKLY NCWS ANALYSIS- 11. S. Deficit Worries Economists; Acheson Favors Token Formosa Aid; 75-Cent Wage Floor Now Effective (EDITOR'S NOTE: When opinions are expressed In these columns, they are those of W estern New spaper Union's news analysts and not necessarily of this newspaper.) BIG DEFICIT: Some Are Worried The two-year, 10-billion-dollar deficit loom ing as inevitable for the United States had som e eco nom ic experts in a state of appre hension. Among these w as Dr. Edwin G. Nourse, form er chairm an of the President’s council of econom ic advisers. The deficit, Dr. Nourse indicated, has stirred fears of in flation and possibly a “rising un certainty as to the stability of the dollar itself.” DR. NOURSE, who recently re signed his chairm anship on the eco nom ic council, called for a “speci fic and hard-headed plan for get ting back to the black ink.” H e declared the federal budget could be balanced in a year or two, but only if the governm ent practices econom y and reduces or defers m any of President Truman’s program s "in the developm ent and w elfare areas.” To objective observers. Dr. Nourse w as another voice crying in the wilderness—for, on the basis of political results in the past 16 years, practice or support of econ om y didn’t bring m any votes when the chips w ere down. THE SENSATIONAL SUCCESS of the late Mr. Roosevelt, also a great spender of public m oney— a program which helped give him four presidential election victories —w as bound to loom as a vital les son in practical politics. On the record, the Am erican taxpayer cares less about his gov ernm ent’s saving m ohey than he does about its being spent. FORMOSA: Token Aid? According to reliable reports, U.S. State Secretary Dean Acheson w as in favor of a congressional m ove to send about 28 m illion dol lars in econom ic aid to the Chi nese N ationalists in Form osa. THE QUESTION which im m edi ately arose w as: Why? W as it another money-down-a- rat-hole action? Another token ap peasem ent of those who w ere de manding m ore and actual aid to Form osa? Those w ere legitim ate questions, in any attem pt to penetrate the m aze of the intricate foreign pol icy being practiced by the United States. Acheson had let it be known m ost clearly that he feels the Na tionalist cause is lost in China, and there w ere m any who con tended that it wouldn’t be long until the state secretary advocated U.S. recognition of the Chinese Communist regim e. If those things w ere true, why send 28 m illion good Am erican dol lars rolling helplessly into the path of a R ed juggernaut already con ceded as sure to roll over all China? ACHESON, it seem ed to m ost, w as laying him self open to charges of inconsistency, or, perhaps even m ore important, willing to play fast and loose with Am erican mon ey for m ore tim e to juggle his highly involved and puzzling dip lom atic concepts. At the risk of over-sim plification, it could be contended that there w as still hope to stop the Com m unist surge in China, or there w as not. If not, then there seem ed little point in w asting further U.S. resources in a futile attem pt other w ise. If so, then applying 28 mil? lion dollars to the effort would ap pear as sim ply a peurile gesture. TAXATION: One Billion More Just as nearly everyone expected, Mr. Truman’s tax recom m enda tions were w ell below what he had stated a year ago he would ask for when congress convened. The first figure was 12 billions. What Mr. Truman asked for, instead, was one billion. MR. TRUMAN’S proposal in cluded both tax cuts and tax in creases, but, overall, it would hike the nation’s tax bill by a billion dollars. Even so, there w as no ready assurance the President would get that much. That he trim m ed his tax propo sals at all was due to mounting sentim ent within his own adm inis tration ranks that appreciable tax increases would be unwise at this tim e, and that the effort should be toward stim ulating business as much as possible, rather than re tard or discourage it by added tax burdens. THE PRESIDENT recom m ended a cut in excise taxes—as it had been generally believed he would. These would include levies on travel, telephone and telegraph bills, luggage, women’s pocket- books, furs, jew els, cosm etics, etc. This would be done provided “loop holes” in other taxes w ere closed. Mr. Truman also proposed a bil lion dollar increase in the taxes on corporations, big estates and gifts. As it stood, the proposal added up to bad new s for big business, good news for sm all business, and som e cheer for wage-earners. Recall Asked Donald R. Heath, U.S. m inis ter to Bulgaria, has been term ed “persona non grata” by the Bulgarian governm ent which has asked that he be re called. The Bulgarians charge Heath received secret govern m ent inform ation from Traicho Kostov, form er deputy premier of Bulgaria who w as executed on a charge of treason. WAGES: 75-Cent Floor The nation’s new 75 cents an hour w age law is now in effect. That m eans that all workers em ployed in interstate com m erce, or in production of goods for inter state com m erce, m ust be paid a minim um of 75 cents an hour. PRESIDENT TRUMAN hailed the new law as being “dictated by social justice” and a step that w ill bring “ great and lasting ben efits.” Significant, however, was an al m ost im m ediate call by certain CIO union leaders for effort to boost the m inim um w age to a flat dollar an hour, and broadened cov erage under the law. IT WAS PERHAPS with these new union demands in mind that President Truman said he had asked labor secretary Tobin to ’keep m e inform ed on the opera tion of the new law .” M ost workers are now m aking more than 75 cents an hour. But it has been estim ated that the new minimum will m ean wage in creases to about 1.5 m illion per sons, more than half of whom are in the South. This is expected to cost em ployers about 300 m illion dollars annually. NEWS:. No Monopoly Since the early days when Reuter’s new s agency and the Associated Press were pioneering in the gathering and dissem ination of new s, there have been frequent legal tangles over the ownership of new s and rights of its distribu tion. NOW THAT RADIO has invaded the new s field, it w as inevitable that the sam e sort of argument would arise over the ownership of radio new s and whether one sta tion or a chain of stations can create a monopoly in broadcasting the news. The federal com m unications com m ission ruled that such cannot be done, and a United' States court of appeals has upheld the FCC. The court ruled that the FCC m ay deny' a license to a radio station applicant if it finds that approval would tend to create a news monop oly. The court said: “ Monopoly in the m ass com m unication of news and advertising is contrary to the public interest, even if not in term s prescribed by the antitrust law s.” THE RULING w as in connection with the case of the M ansfield (Ohio) Journal and the Lorain (Ohio) Journal whose applications for radio station licenses were turned down by the FCC. In reject ing the applications, the com m is- cion ruled the M ansfield Journal used its position in the com m unity “to coerce its advertisers to enter into exclusive advertising contracts with the newspaper.” The com m ission added that since both newspapers were owned and controlled by Sam uel A. Horvitz and Isadore Horyitz, it took the view that what happened in Mans field “was indicative of what m ight occur under sim ilar circum stances in Lorain.” In appealing to the court, the newspapers contended the FCC had gone outside its province and had acted under antitrust law s. ' FEPC Stalled In the first test of the fair em ploym ent practices com m ission bill in the current congress, President Truman ran afoul of southern-led filibuster tactics, with his good friend, Sam Rayburn, leading them . Rayburn, the adm inistration’s own leader in the house, tw ice was able to bar consideration of the FEPC bill by giving priority to m easures aim ed at statehood for Alaska and H awaii. - HISS TRIAL: Verdict & Question The average Am erican could not help but discern strange and dis turbing ram ifications in the Alger H iss perjury trial verdict. H iss w as found guilty on two counts. The jury found that he had passed secret docum ents to W hittaker Chambers and that he had seen Chambers after January I, 1937. H iss had denied both allegations. In a ram bling expose of w hat now seem s to have been juvenile intrigue with infantile overtones of cloak-and-dagger hue, the one big fact that cam e out of the trial is that som ebody lied—som ebody bed in such colossal fashion as to be unm atched in any recent in stance in A m erican jurisprudence. CHAMBERS, form er Communist courier by his own adm ission, and a form er senior editor of Tim e m agazine, said H iss passed the secret state departm ent papers to him and that he turned them over to the Russian. H iss said he didn’t do any such thing. However, the jury, as a second trial of the case, chose to believe Cham bers and convict H iss. N at urally, H iss w ill appeal, but if the verdict is upheld, he faces a pos sible m axim um sentence of 10 years im prisonm ent and fines of $4,000. The disturbing elem ent in the case is how the Communists could so pervert the A m ericanism of ab norm ally intelligent individuals like H iss and Chambers, if Cham bers’ story is true, to the point where they would actually serve the interest of the Soviets against the interests of their own country. THE STRANGENESS of the case, as m any see it, are the intricacies of U . S. law which perm it an ad m itted Communist courier to es cape any sort of legal punishment and yet perm its a long-tim e sen tence and heavy fines for a de fendant accused of lying about what it is alleged he did. Chambers adm its his acts and is never charged in court. H iss had to be convicted on charges against him. H iss got one break—because of a statute - of lim itations he could not be charged with having be trayed his country as a spy. BERLIN: Ari Old Story The unpredictable Soviet mind again was indulging its tortuous working to the discom fiture of Berlin and the w estern allies. In a sort of “junior blockade” of the form er reich capital, the R ussians had for 24 hours set up an aggra vating check system which stalled supply trucks to such an extent that only one was allowed to pass every 15 m inutes. IT WAS EXASPERATING, it w as puzzling and it set in motion grave fears that the Reds were about to set up another Berlin blockade which cost A m erica so much, in m oney and equipment when “Operation Airlift” w as all that kept Berliners from starvation and freezing. And then, with no explanation or apparent reason, the Russians abandoned the "junior blockade” as suddenly as they had im posed it. Am erican, British, and French com m anders of Berlin m et in em ergency session and discussed the latest Soviet harrying tactics. This resulted in a decision to take a wait-and-see attitude. SOME AMERICAN officers were convinced another full-scale block ade w as com ing. But the British com m ander expressed a conviction that the R ussians w ere m erely en gaging in a passing phase of “pin pricks.” It w as m ade clear, however, that Am erican plans are such that in the event a m ajor blockade is clam ped on, another airlift opera tion could be put into effect in tim e to stave off any disastrous re sults to the people of Berlin.

This figure has been cal culated by scientists of the soil conservation service, U . S. depart m ent of agriculture. Of course, the departm ent spe cialists say, such a calam ity never occurs. In m ost areas, rainfall at the rate of one inch in 15 m inutes is an extrem ely heavy and de structive rain, and the total of the sm aller splashes in such a rain can cause serious splash erosion. It is against the forces of fall ing rain that the soil conservation service is centering its efforts to keep a protective cover on the . - - - \ It is only in recent years that this type of soil erosion has been fully appreciated and the destructive results m easured. land at all seasons when beating rains are likely. M ore than 100 tons of soil per acre m ay be splashed by the heaviest rains falling on a bare and highly de tachable soil. It is only in recent years that this type of erosion has been fully appreciated and the destructive re sults m easured. Scientists and farm ers have com e to realize that the raindrop splashing which de taches particles from the m ain soil body is a prim ary factor in ero sion control, and that it is not until the soil has been detached by the falling raindrop that the flowing w ater of the run-off outside of rills and gullies can rem ove it from the ‘field.

BROADWAY AND MAIN STREET 'Dear Old Golden Rule Days/ Help Resolve Labor D ifficulty -------------------------------------By BILLY ROSE-------------------------- T he follow ing story w as passed on to m e by one of the field m en of the national labor relations board.. I’m running it, not because Fm jum ble-brained enough to think it proves anything, but because it’s an interesting yarn. If you find any m oral or m essage in it— w ell, rem em ber you’re strictly on your own. . . . , In Decem ber of 1947, a strike w as called in a textile plant in New England, and when the picket lines first appeared everybody thought they w ere only part of the usual bluff and bluster that went with contract-re- newal tim e. But as the days added up to w eeks and the weeks to months, the townspeople began to worry. The strike, as far as anyone could m ake out, had nothing to do with w ages and work- Billy Bose m g conditions, but seem ed to be based on the in ability of labor a n d m anage m ent to sit at the sam e table without throw ing four-letter words at each other. A lbert Hanson, presi dent of the textile company, had one m eeting with Burt Murphy, re cently elected head of the union, but after a few m inutes of invective and table-thumping, both m en had stom ped out and from then on had refused to talk- to each other except through local headlines. And when a national labor relations m an had offered his services as mediator, he had been told to peddle his pa pers elsew here. • * * TO A FEW insiders, however, the anim osity between Hanson and Murphy w as nothing new; in fact, it had been going on since they were kids in a village 60 m iles north of the m ill town. They had competed for the sam e position on the school baseball team (Albert had gotten it), and pulled the pigtails of the sam e junior m iss (Burt had m ar ried her.) And they had continued to cat-and-dog it during the years when Hanson w as fighting his w ay up from salesm an to plant presi dent and Murphy w as organizing the workers. One day, as the strike was go ing into its fourth month, the textile man got a note from an old schoolteacher, "Dear Albert,” it read, "I haven’t seen you in al most 40 years, and Vd appreciate it if you would come by the school at 10. Sincerely, Anne Peck.” Hanson chuckled at the precise, schoolm arm ish handwriting, but he rem em bered the old lady kindly, and so on Saturday he got up early and drove the 60 m iles to his home town. The schoolhouse looked m uch as he rem em bered it, and so did the room inside with its neat rows of desks. But the thing that hit him right in the nostalgia w as the sight of M iss Peck herself, still sitting behind her desk on the raised plat form in front of the blackboard. "It’s been a long tim e, Albert,” she said. “Not so long as I thought,” said her old pupil. “Let’s see. Seem s I used to sit right over there.” He walked to a desk near the window and wedged his bulk into the seat. “That’s right,” said M iss Peck. “H elen Brennon used to sit in front of you and Burt Murphy had the desk on your right. Now, just ex cuse m e until I finish correcting this paper.” A t the Beautiful Gate i TOO, have sat at the Beautiful Gate O f the temple, asking alms, Begging for paltry copper coins To be tossed to my out-ftretched palms. Asking for little, receiving less: A penny, a Stone, a curse, When all the while at my waiting side Was the wealth of the universe: The Beautiful Gate that would let me in To the house of the living God; The healing touch that would bid me rise And leap on the earth’s bright sod; The power of prayer upon which to draw For all of my vital need; For the garments of praise for my heaviness, j And Bread upon which to feed. GRACE NOLL CROWELL FIVE MINUTES later, Burt Mur phy walked in. There w as a grin on his face, but w hen he saw the tex tile m an he stopped sm iling. “I’m glad you got m y note and could com e,” said M iss Peck. “Do you rem em ber where you used to sit?” 'tWhaVs this all about?" asked the union boss. The old lady looked at him over her glasses. "If you’ll take 1 The Ficiion *MAIL RIDER By Richard H.

Contained therein w as a dis patch of the utm ost im portance for Gen. Newton at Albany. Col. Albee of the Bennington garrison had called Eben aside that morning. “No one is supposed to know you’re carrying the papers, Eben. An escort would only excite suspi cion. Vou m ust go alone. There is, of course, the possibility that Bon- ney, the white renegade, and his Indian cutthroats, have learned what I’m up to. In any event, if you’re attacked, destroy the pa pers.” He sat for a long tim e study ing the valley without moving. A curious sense of excitem ent stirred his blood. Without know ing why, he sensed danger. A minute later he glim psed a column of sm oke rising from the sum m it of a hill across the valley. A signal fire! They had sighted him . Ebcn sucked in his breath. W ell, his chances of getting through were pretty slim now. Tliere was He kept to the high ground for an hour, watching the sm oke signal. only one ford in the Hoosick that w as accessible at this tim e of year. They’d never let him cross it. The sensible thing to do w as turn back and insist upon an escort. A thin sm ile played across his lips. Sensible, but not advisable. Eben explored the river for half a m ile in both directions, then urged his mount into the stream . THE WATER WAS ICV, breath taking. In another m om ent the horse’s legs went out from under him , and the sw ift current w as car rying them rapidly down stream . Eben did all he could to help the noble beast in its fight to reach the opposite shore. He w as begin ning to think he had underesti m ated the strength of the current, when they struck a sandbar. The horse floundered, nearly lost its footing, then gripped hard and held. Eben breathed a sigh of re lief. After a m om entary pause he urged tiie beast toward the w est bank. Ten feet from his goal he drew rein sharply. A loose stone had com e tumbling down . from the high bank. Eben sat very still, his heart pounding. A feathered bonnet showed above the embankment. H e tried frantically to get his m ount toward the east bank, but the river sheared off there; the strength of the current w as against him . The Indians w ere running along the bank, howling ’ and scream ing their triumph. In an other m om ent he’d be swept against the high w est bank and they’d be upon him . Rem em bering Col. Albee’s in structions, Eben unwrapped the leather m ail pouch, gripped it tight ly and flung him self from the back of the floundering horse. Instantly w ater swept over his head. He swam as long and as far as he could beneath the surface. Then he bobbed into view and a sense of dism ay sent his heart downward. He w as within three feet of the w est bank. A leering Iindian w as reaching out toward him. D im ly, as he went under again, Eben heard a chorus of wild shouts. He w as far below the spot where the Indian had stood, but equally as close to the bank. To his am azem ent there w ere two soldiers standing there yelling and gesticulating. One of them w as Gen. Newton. The sound of gunfire cam e from upriver. “ Thought you m ight have seen their smoke signal and realized they had sighted us,” Gen. Newton w as saying. “Figured B onney would be up to som ething, so I led a detachm ent out to m eet you.” Eben sank to the ground. It was good to rest.

First, because God’s word says it’s wrong —says wine is a mocker and strong drink is raging, and whosoever is deceived thereby is not wise. Yes, dear friends, wine is a mocker a- gainst the work of Jesus Christ, our Saviour unless we take it in remembrance of Christ. It causes lots of homes to be broken up; it is causing lots of heartaches and sorrow to fathers, mothers and loved ones. It is filling lots of jails, and is costing lots of dear boys and girls their lives. Please get your Bible and read Isa. 28:7. When people get full of strong drink they make lots of mistakes. It addles their minds and causes them to do things they wouldn’t do if it were not for strong drink. The Bible says, “Be not deceived, God is not mocked, for whatso ever a man soweth that shall he also reap.” We have lots of church mem bers that are beer drinkers. They will tell you there is not any harm in a bottle of beer. There is just as much sin in drinking a bottle of beer as there is in a pint of whisky. It is breaking God’s com Mr. Robert F.

O f all the forms of commercial transportation, only the railroads don’t say, “let George do it.” Unlike their competitors... who have outgrown the “infant industry” stage, but who still rely on help from the people’s tax dollars... America’s self- supporting railroads pay all their own costs of doing business. And that is good news for “George.” For after all, who is this fellow “George” who is building and maintaining the highways, waterways and airways that other carriers use as a “place of business" for private gain? He is every taxpayer in America. “George” is... you! Butyou don’t do it for us,“George.” The Southern Railway pays its own way... in the time-tested, traditional American way. It isn’t easy... especially when we have to compete for business with subsi dized carriers. But it’s easier on you and your pocket- book, “George”! And it’s better for our country, too. Because in the long run, private industries... like private citizens...must be independently self-reliant if America's greatness is to endure. P rendent SOUTHERN RAILWAY SYSTEM Oldest Pap No Liquor.

DEVOTIONAL READING: John 8:21- Fight for Freedom Lesson for February 19,1950. ISA Dr. Forem an 'TH ERE ARE TWO KINDS of • problem s with living things. One is the kind of problem caused by its growing too fast; the other is the problem caused by not grow ing fast enough. The early church had m ostly the first kind of prob lem , at any rate it w as taking in a lot of m em b ers whom t h e older Christians found strange. A t first all Christians had been Jew s; no one thought of anything else. But in Anti och, as w e have seen, and even m ore as the church •spread w estw ard around the edge of the M editer ranean, the Christian churches w ere filling up with non-Jewish m em bers, just as they are today. It is no secret that in the M ason ic order there are 33 degrees. It is not possible for a new m em ber to be taken right into the 33rd de gree the first night. Everybody has to go through the low er degrees which are called the Blue Lodge. Now m any persons in that early church thought of the Jew ish faith as a sort of Christian Blue Lodge. All the very earliest Chris tians had been m em bers of that lodge; why shouldn’t every one else be the sam e? So when Paul and Barnabas cam e back from that historic m issionary tour of Cyprus and points north, telling about the large number of new Christians, these old-style Christians shook their heads. Paul w as by-passing the Blue Lodge; he w as taking in m em b ers1 who had not gone through the prop er prelim inaries, the first degrees. * * * W hat M akes a M an A C hristian? JJAUL KNEW a real Christian * when he saw one. So did Barnabas. And the two of them knew, right down in their souls, that they had seen real conver sions, genuine cases of persons com ing out of pagan darkness into Christian light, without being Jew s at all, even for five seconds. The vital question w as sim ply this: W hat m akes a Christian? The old-style Christians, who had been Jew s them selves and still w ere, for all their Christian faith, said: U n less you are circum cized and keep all the law s of M oses, you cannot be saved—you cannot even begin to be a Christian. Paul and Barnabas—not alone, but as spokes m an for m any others in the church —said: You are saved by faith. The Jerusalem Christian said: Y es, you are saved by faith, AND by keeping the law of M oses. Paul said: you are saved by faith, period.• » » H ow They Settled It 1J1HE WAY that problem w as * settled is a m odel for all Christian churches with problem s on their hands. First of all, the argum ent w as brought out into the open; it w as not a w hispering cam paign. Second, it w as settled after giving both sides plenty of oppor tunity for full discussion in public. Third, it w as settled not inform ally but by a church council, a group of representative leaders, not by a sim ple m ajority vote of all church m em bers indiscrim inately. Fourth, it w as settled (as the reader of A cts 15 m ay see) by appeals to fact and to Scripture. Finally, once the leaders bad m ade up their m inds, the church at large accepted their decision prom ptly, without fur ther bickering. This has been the pattern for the Christian church ever since, though alas! it has not alw ays been followed. There would have been few er church splits if the exam ple of the early church had been m ore ser iously taken. * * * Faith and O bedience ESSE N T IA L LY , that first great church council decided on the side of Paul and Barnabas. But they did not throw the Old T esta m ent overboard. The m oral law w as as good as it ever w as. But the council showed, once and for all, the true relations between Christian faith and obedience to the law of God. There is just one doorway to the Father’s house, the door w ay of faith. We do not have to keep the law of M oses, or any set of law s, first. W e are saved BT obedience. We are not saved FROM obedi ence. But w e are saved FOR obe dience. A Christian’s obedience to God is not a w ay of earning God’s good-will. It is a grateful response to God’s grace. And that m akes all the difference in the world.

MOCKSVILLE N. C. FEBRUARY 16 1950 Helicopter’s Field of Duty Expands Steadily Since War The day when thousands will own helicopters for private pleas ure hopping lies far in the future, qualified obervers agree. Daily headlines prove, however, that the humming-birdlike aircraft h a v e found permanent duty roles In commerce, agriculture, exoloration, patrol and rescue work. They ara economically useful in many parts of the globe. Only a dozen years ago the heli copter was just being developed. Today it enables man to carry on almost as if he had wings of his own, and comes nearer than other types of aircraft to realizing the dream of flight that inspired men to develop flying. Maine’s Aroostook county potato farmers save time and money by enlisting helicopters for frequent DDT dusting to control fungus and bugs. On New England blueberry acres, chemical dust is fed from hoppers into the downwash from the rotor blades’ during ground- skimming flights. Helicopter dust ing increases the yeild from Mas sachusetts cranberry bogs. In major fruit and vegetable areas of Florida. Texas, and the West Coast, too, there are crop- dusting companies ready to pro vide helicopters on short notice. Besides laying chemicals ac curately on insects and weeds, the machines have substituted for smudge pots by forcing downdrafts of warm air. They have rounded up range cattle, scared hungry game away from ricefields and other crops. In Argentina last year, 10 heli copters broke up a devastating locust scourage. In the Anglo- Egyptian Sudan, they sprayed cot ton fields on ground where trac tors could not tread. In Arabian date-palm groves they were re ported superseding the laborious hand-pollinating operation. Great Britain finds helicopters w e ll suited to spraying England’s hedge row-enclosed fields, and sends them to work in distant colonial lands in the off season. Rctearcliers Synthesize S Metals for First Time T h r e e minerals, eucryptite, spodumene, and petalite, have been synthesized for the first time. The work was conducted by Dr. Elburt F. Osborn, Dr. Rustum Roy, and Delia M. Roy, of the depart ment of earth sciences at the Penn sylvania state college. It was sponsored by the geophysics di vision of the office of naval re search. Eucryptite is easily synthesized, growing readily into crystals with a remarkable resemblance to ouartz. The fact that it has been found only at one place, near Branchfield, Conn., indicates that it may have been mistaken for quartz. Petalite also can resemble quartz and often has Vbeen con fused with it. Both petalite and spodumene are used in the ceram ics industry in glazing tile. To complete the research work, extremely high temperatures and high pressures ivere necessary. Stainlss steel bombs, with tem peratures as high as 800 degrees C. and pressures of 10,000 to 20,000 pounds per square inch were used. The Penn state researchers learned that eucryptite inverts at 972 degrees C. to a high tempera ture form which melts incongru- ently. Spodumene inverts to a high temperature form at a maximum temperature of 500 degrees C. and petalite decomposes to a high silica beta-spodumene solid solution at 680 degrees C. Reward for What It Takes Faith in an idea, hard work, per severance and the willingness to make sacrifices because our patent system promised protection of their inventions from copyists, has brought fame and fortune to many men, and endowed their fel low men with a better life. It doesn’t take a magic formula to make an inventor, nor does it take so-called genius. Who knows’ Per haps as you’re juicing oranges some morning you may hit upon an idea that will make your rela tives glad you’re on the family tree. L-P Gas Progress Once a waste product at oil fields and refineries. LP-G as-also known as bottle, tank, butaine and pro pane gas—today brings city com fort and convenience to over 5,500,000 rural a n d suburban homes, has hundreds of industrial, commercial and farm uses. Big factor in conservation of natural resources. Less than 30 years old. LP-Gas industry owes spectacular growth to patented inventions and discoveries which made it possible to recover and liquefy “wild gases,” and put them to work. “Worldly” House Paint In the very early days of our nation, the austere Puritan worth ies felt that people who enjoyed color also enjoyed life too much to be tolerated. Paint, too, was frowned upon. Reflecting the fact that it was considered a sign of worldliness is the record that, in 1630, a clergyman in Charlestown, Mass., was haled before the city council, charged with the serious crime of painting his house. Of Course Not D o Y ou W a n t T o C u t Y o u r F e d e r a l T a x e s ? Efficiency At Less Cost Efficiency is necessary to reduce the cost of government. It is also im perative for our national prosperity. The Commission on the Organization of the Executive Branch of the Gov ernment in its minute survey of the 1812 Federal agencies, boards, and de partments, found a sad lack of effec tive housekeeping. This Commission, created by Congress with the approval of President Truman, was headed by former President Hoover. It has pro vided a vivid picture of the weak nesses in our present set-up, and sug gested ways of increasing efficiency so that your taxes ma.u be reduced. Today thousands of tons of obsolete, useless records are stored in steel cabinets in expensive offices at main tenance charges of $29 per year each, when they could be kept in ware houses at a cost of only $2.15 per year each. In 1928 the Department ot Agricul ture had about 22,000 employees and spent less than $26 million. In 1948 it had 82,000 employees and spent $834 millions of your hard-earned tax dollars. In a single Georgia cotton county, 47 employees of 7 separate USDA field services were handing out advice. A Washington State county had 184 Department agents and a Maryland county had 88 agents advis ing the heavily taxed farmers. A Missouri dairyman was “confused and irritated” when he recently received contradictory advice from five govern ment agencies on how to fertilize his fields. These are a tew instance ol the thousands discovered by the Commis sion where elimination of duplication would give increased efficiency and better service at less cost. If all of the recommendations of the Commis sion are adopted, the workers of this country would save between three and four billion dollars in taxes annually.

These much-needed reforms cannot be made into law without your support! A Bit of Doing Grandpa was trying to impress his grandson the futility of fight ing. “Look, young feller,” he said, “you’ve just come home from a fight with the little boy down the street. Now you have an enemy, haven’t you?” “No, sir,” replied the lad, “Jim my’s my friend.” Grandpa didn't want to get in volved in that issue so he adhered to the enemy theory. “But he might become an enemy,” he pointed out, “and then you might hatte a lot of trouble with him later on. Take me for instance, I get along very well with every body. I haven’t got an enemy in the world.” “Sure, I know, grandpa,” the boy replied, “that’s because you outlived them all.” THINKING it was very strange that a man who could support four dogs should have to resort to stealing a lamb to feed his family the judge said, "You may have to steal a lamb to feed your family and yet, by your own admission, you have four dogs. Will you explain, please?” "Well, judge, Your Honor, suh,” he replied with all the offended dig nity he could muster, “yo’ll didn’ expeck us to eat de dawgs, did yo’?” StJRPRISBI Four days after the end of their honeymoon a couple receivd in the mailbox at their little love-nest a pair of tickets to a hit show on Broadway. With the tickets was a note which read: "Guess who sent these.” On the appointed evening they went to the theater, returning very late. To their astonishment, every thing of any value in the house had been removed. On the living room table they found a note: “Now you know.” Always Are Smiles were beamed across ths restaurant tables between a man and a woman almost at opposite ends of the room. She lost interest soon, though, and before he could follow up his initial advantage her smile had frozen completely. Turning to a man who had paused beside him to light a cigar the disappointed diner said in a rather resigned tone: “Women cer tainly are fickle, aren’t they? That pretty woman over at that table was flirting with me only a few seconds ago and now she looks as cold as an iceberg.” “Yes,” agreed the man, “my wife is very unpredictable.” Natural Alarm There is a valley in Scotland noted for its long echo. A Scot was demonstrating the echo to a Swiss visitor one morning and they timed it. It took exactly three minutes for the original "Hallo" to come back to them. The Scotchman looked proud. “I imagine ye have some pretty fine echoes in Switzerland," he con ceded, “but do ye have anything that lasts as long as that?” The yodeler thought a moment. "I believe we have something that might compare with it,” he said. “In fact, there is a valley near my home town that had a rather good echo. When I go to bed each night I put my head out the window and shout, 'Wake up, wake up. Time to get up.’ and eight hours later the echo returns and serves as my alarm clock.” Boger & Howard PU R E SERVICE Tires Batteries A nd Accessories Kurfees Paints C om er N .

Isenhoar.*High Point. R 4. To really and truly be men of heart and soul means that we' are godly, upright, noble and holy. We have separnted ourselves from sin and wltkedness, and bv the grace of God we live and act as be. comes the followers of the Lord Jasus Christ. Indeed this is worth while. Men of heart and soul love Gon supremely, then love their fellow, men next to God They would not disobey God for anything, neitker would they injure human ity for any price that conld he of fered. Such men are a blessing to any community, and couatry, am nation. We need them everywhere; we need them by millions and mil lions. Men of heart and soul are not found in had company; unless it is to w«n others to Christ. They are found at the plaoes of evil, sin and wickedness. We do not see *hem indu’ging in anvtoihg that defiles their bodies, minds and souls. Neither da we see them forming bad habits, nor setting had exam, oles befere others. Thev are care- fnl how thev live, not only that they may plerse God, hut that thev mav helg others to be godly and and reach heaven. Men of heart and sonl are con- sdentlnn Tbev are not mere makehelieves. There is no hypo crisy about them Thev are genu ine men. Christiaa men. saintly men. Our homes are blessed by snch men. and so are our churches. They olwags uplift mankind in stead of pulling men down. Men of heart and sonl are need ed as hushands and fethers, as ministers and teachers, as lawyers and doctors, as hankers and mer. coants, as farmers and miners. In fact snch men are needep in all kinds of business that is honorable tnd right; and of course any busi ness that is not honcrahie and right does not have men of heart and soul to carry it on. O how we need men of heart and soni todav everywhere! M oreAboat Eqgs At last the Deparfmont ot Agr1 cultnre is about to find a way to get tid of some of those 65 5 mil lion pounds of died eggs that it has hougbi no and stored in a cave in Hansas and in a warehouse all over the country. It plans to unload the eggs on the British. It has offered to sell the British government 2 3 Wilton eggs, but the price is not mention ed But we do koow that the 65 5 million pounds of eggs now in storage cost the taxpayers #82 mil lion and that taking them off the market also forced us to pay a higher price for eggs at the stores. That reminds us of a story that came to our attention the other day There is no official proof of this story, but we got it on what we consider good authority. Navy officers have a little game called egg-throwing, according' to this story While we civilians are paving high prices for eggs, while the government is using .$82 m'l- Iiou of our money to keep the prsce up, navy officers take a case of eggs to their recreation ground and test their pirchtng and dodging sgill by throwing the eggs at one another. And you know who pays for the eggs. Aside from the prictice of buy ing eggs to keep the price high, this little story raises the question of whether the monev provided for national defense could not be cut, at least as much as the price of a few cases of eggs.—Charlotte Ob server. S L A V STI Teacher’s Helper j 'TNSTEAD of bringing the teacher ^ a n apple every day, little Nick, j the baker’s son, gave her a pretzel. She always thanked him very much but one day said: “These pretzels are very good but I wish you would tell your father that they are a little too salty for me.” Every day after that the pretzel prepared on her desk minus the salt. She began to think that may be she was putting the boy’s father to too much trouble in making them without salt especially for her. “I hope your father doesn’t go to any great trouble in preparing these pretzels without salt,” she said. “Aw, he doesn’t make ’em with out salt,” the little fellow assured her, “I lick it off.” ONE MOSE TIME Frank Smith’s wife was away for the week end, so he decided to get the boys together for a little cele bration. At midnight, he saw one of his guests start unsteadily for the door. “Say old man,” he protested, “you’re not going home yet?” "Oh, no,” stuttered the other, steadying himself with one hand on the doorknob, “I’m just going to miss the lasht train. Be back in ' a minute.” Famous Zoo In Washington Painted, Scraped, Scrubbed The zoo in the nation’s capital, known to children and adults the entire country over, would be a jumble of rusting cages and* decay ing buildings if it were not for con stant upkeep and painting by order of its Director, Dr. William M. Maim. “The zoo,” he says, "is like a ship. It’s scraped and painted and scrubbed all the time. We use about $1500 worth of paint and al lied products every year—and that can hardly be called an expense because it saves thousands In de preciation.” The famous zoo, which has S1OOO animals, birds and reptiles to house, hires one man whose sole job is painting. Benches, guard rails, cages, sheds, inside offices, work rooms, animal houses, con crete floors, watch boxes and gates —all get their paint-protection. Zoo painting is not done solely to fore stall rust and decay, however. Backgrounds are painted Io set off the animals to best advantage. Even if it’s just a plain wall or the bars of the cage, a color is carefully selected for its appear ance as well as its durability. During the depression, young ar tists were employed by the WPA to make the zoo more colorful. They painted backgrounds which pictured animals in their native habitats—whether they were Afri ca, South America or the North Pole. Mountains, clouds, se a , swamps and woods were all por trayed in lovely colors. Artists 'were so earnest and enthusiastic that — even though they had to pay for the paint themselves on their low salaries—they selected only the best. Thus far the painted backgrounds have withstood the wear and tear of time and rough treatment. The reptile and bird houses have stood up especially well. Snakes crawl beside the edges of green-swamps and birds spread wings against a sky forever blue. "Reptiles, in par ticular, leave tlieir backgrounds unscathed,” Dr. Mann says. “But hippos, elephants and giraffes show less artistic appreciation. They’re all for using a sacred Indian tem ple or the River Nile for a good back-scratch.” A lw ays the Cavalier • "Chivalry is not dead,” thought the woman just past her prime as she smiled and graciously accepted the seat in the subway offered her by a man in overalls. “Thank you very much,” she said. “That’s quite all right, ma’am," he replied. As she started to take out her knitting she noticed that he was leaning slightly toward her. She looked up in time to hear him con tinue. “As I always say, ma’am, a man should always get up and give a lady his seat. Some of these guys offer their seats only to young and pretty girls, but as you can see, m a’am, it don’t make a bit of dif ference to me.” "t h e ONLY WAY It was visitor’s day at the state penitentiary and the old lady was making quite a nuisance of her self. She cornered one poor inmate and subjected him to a barrage of questions. “And tell us,” she concluded, "why are you in prison?” “Madam,” said the inmate with painful courtesy, “I want to be a warden. So I thought I’d start from the bottom.” As It Were “Is this a station-to-station call?” asked the long-distance operator when a minister in Hoboken put in a call to another minister in Oma ha. “No,” he said meekly, “It’s a parsonrto-Darson call.” , Estimating Painting Needs You estimate the amount of paint gallonage required for the walls of a room by multiplying the length of the room by the height . . . and doubling the total (for the two walls.) Then you learn the area of the other two walls by multiplying the width of the room by the height, then doubling the total. The two totals, added together, give you the number of square feet in all four walls. This figure, divided by the number of square feet covered by a gallon, will give you the quantity you need for one coat. A gallon of flat oil paint will cover approxi mately 630 square feet; casein and emulsion paints, about 540. A win dow or door area is not deducted unless it is greater than 100 square feet in size. Science Seeks New Sites For Cosmic Ray Research To the sport and the glory of scal ing the high peaks, modem science has added a new purpose—the es tablishment of sites for cosmic ray research. A survey headed by Brad ford Washburn, Boston scientist, is under way to check the feasibility of such a permanent station on Alas ka’s Mount McKinley, the highest point of North America. Since cosmic rays are best ob served in rarefied altitudes, stud ies of the bombardment of the earth by this mysterious force are often made from aircraft and bal loons, notes the National Geograph ic society. The society, in fact, is cooperating in upper-air investiga tions of cosmic ray secrets over a Canadian outpost settlement on Hudson Bay. Various ground stations, too, have been established for such re search on tall mountains in the United States and abroad. Mount McKinley, however, with a maxi mum reach in its South peak of 20,257 feet, would offer the world’s highest fixed vantage point to date. The Alaska monarch is a two- headed giant. Rising in Moimt Mc Kinley national park, north of Anchorage, it has a secondary North peak that is more than 19,000 feet up. Early Indian, tribesmen called the mountain “The Great One” and “Home of the Sun." Russian traders in Alaska once spoke of it ' as the “Big Mountain.” But it was not until 1896 that Mount McKinley was given its present name. D o Y ou W a n t T o C u t Y o u r F e d e r a l T a x e s ? Slash Government Ciost If your personal or business ex penses go up and your income and efficiency come down this year at the same rate as that of the Federal Gov ernment, you will be in the hands of the sheriff at an early date. Workers, farmers, and businessmen from Maine to Califomia know this. The answer is in the Report of the Commission on the Organization of the Executive Branch of the Federal Government. This twelve-man, bi partisan Commission was unanimously created by Congress with the approval of the President. At the suggestion of Mr. Truman, former President Hoover was made its Chairman and Secretary of State Dean Acheson, Vice Chairman. The late president Franklin D. Roosevelt long had ad vocated sucli a reorganization of the government. There is a two-fold purpose behind the effort to reorganize the Executive Branch of the Government: One—the elimination of the inefficiency caused by overlapping and duplication; two— this should lead to a reduction of your taxes. If our Government can save from three to four billion dollars a year by more efficient methods of con ducting our business, failure to act is stupid short-sightedness. Action, however, depends upon the President and Congress. The Presi dent has already submitted a number of reorganization recommendations. The Congress has adopted several of these, most important having to do with the housekeeping of the armed forces, which save the taxpayer more than $500,000,000 a year. But these are only first steps. There will be more ahead if Congress is made to realize Mr. and Mrs. Taxpayer want more tax-saving economies. Congress men and Senators will vote for just so many of the Commission’s recommen dations as you. their constituents demand. What can you, as an individual, do about it? The answer is to write your Congressman and Senators. Tell them you want the Recommendations of the Commission on the Organization of the Executive Branch of the Federal Government made the law of the land. Join the non-partisan Citizens Com mittee set up to obtain the necessary action to make the Commission’s report work. Write to the Citizens Committee for Reorganization of the Executive Branch of the Government, 1421 Chestnut Street, Philadelphia 2, Pennsylvania.- for more information about the Commission Report. Tell your neighbors about it. Make speeches! Make your representatives in Washington act—now! No Cause for Alarm A GROUF OF HJKERS passed a ' hillbilly's cabin and smiled as they saw the owner reclining com fortably in a rocking chair on the porch. They noticed his wife go ing into the house via the front and only door and a few seconds later saw a wildcat leap through the open window. They rushed up to the mountain eer. “Do something quick,” one of them shouted. “A wildcat just leaped into your house and your wife is in there.” The hillbilly shifted his quid of tobacco and declared, “That’s his tough luck. I never did like wild cats, anyway.” Uncle Sam Says There b nothing like assured secur ity In the future to create peace and harmony in the home.

The attorney for the defense warmed to the task because he was an am ateur cook of no mean ability. He discoursed for quite a while on the various tricks employed by good chefs, how they seasoned the foods, and how they had to be so exact in their measurements. He was just about to apply his lecture on cooking to the case at hand when the judge interrupted.

H-BOMBS: Time of Decision One of the most important deci sions in world history had been put up to Harry S. Truman. Should he order construction of the hydro gen bomb? When, atter a respectable period of deliberation, he did make up his mind, the President expressed his decision in the most matter-of-fact manner possible! The XJ. S. would continue its de velopment and production of all types of military weapons, includ ing atomic armaments and the so- called hydrogen bomb. That state ment, probably intentionally cryp tic, may or may not have meant that the U. S. already has begun work on the H-bomb. Only one thing was sure—it was a terribly important decision, not only to Mr. Truman but to every person in the world. IT WASN'T the cost of the bomb that was a poser, even though that was expected to be in the neighbor hood of four billion dollars. It wasn’t a doubt as to whether it could be made, for science de clared it could. It wasn’t a hesi tancy about its effect, for if an enemy decided to, and could, con struct the bomb, any experiments on the' part of the U. S. to make and test it would be justified. No, it was none of these that aggravated the responsibility and the solemnity of the decision. In stead, it was the question of life and death involved and even more terrible, if purely speculative, question; Might not man be un leashing a force which would de stroy all mankind? THE PREPONDERANCE of per suasion was by those advocating the bomb. Sen Millard Tydings (D., Md.,)' chairman of the armed services committee gave voice to what the majority of presidential advisers was thinking. He urged that the U. S. proceed with manufacture of the bomb, de claring that failure to do so could invite attack. But President Tru man was probably thinking of the horrible and utter devastation, the incalculable deaths, the vast de struction which would be hurled upon enemy and innocent alike. BROTHERHOOD: Renewed Effort Brotherhood Week, sponsored by the National Conference of Chris tians and Jews, will be observed from February 19-26, marking the annual observance of an event that has grown into national signifi cance. In accepting the honorary chair manship of Brotherhood Week, President Truman urged “all Amer icans to ponder well the true mean- SPONSOliEO I ONAl CONFERENCE OF CHRISTIANS AND JEWS FEBRUARY 19 to 26 ing of brotherhood” adding that “there probably has never been a time in history when true brother hood was so indispensable to the welfare of our own nation and to the peace and freedom of the entire world.” IN A SIMILAR VEIN, former Secretary of the Navy John L. Sullivan, named general chairman of the national observance, inter preted this year’s event. “The big question today is whether the hu man spirit will remain free or whether it is to be enslaved by totalitarianism,” Sullivan declared. “The dignity of man is on trial throughout the world,” he con tinued, “and the fate of our civili zation may well depend upon the outcome. It will survive only if the ideal of man’s inalienable rights is acknowledged, r e s p e c t e d and strengthened.” First established in 1934 by the National Conference of Christians and Jews, Brotherhood Week has been celebrated each year during the week of George Washington’s birthday as a special period when the people of all faiths in the United States are invited to con sider together the need , and impli cations of good will among Protes-. tants, Catholics and Jews. IN 1934, some 300 communities across the United States partici pated in Brotherhood Week events ; In 1942 there were 800 communities. In 1944 the number spiralled to 2,000. The figure today is impos sible to estimate, according to Sul livan, so widespread is the desire of Americans of all faiths to dem onstrate their loyalty to the basic ideals of respect for people and human rights which a re . essential to our way of life. As observed with growing com munity participation each year, Brotherhood Week dramatizes the practical things which people can do to promote understanding and realization of time-honored American principles. S t e e l D e f e n d e r Benjamin Fairless, president of U. S. steel, testified before a joint congressional economic committee in defense of the re cent increases in the price of steel. He called the rise “ mod est,” laid the blame largely on trnion pensions. HOUSING: $8,000 Units Could the American individual in search of a new 'home afford to pay $8,000 for it? Federal hous ing officials believe that to be a fair figure and Raymond M. Foley, housing administrator, explained to the house banking committee a bill for federal housing aid based on that premise. FOLEY STATED that the admin istration is considering construc tion, through cooperatives and other non-profit organizations, of some 250.000 housing units on an aver age cost of $8,000 each. The homes envisioned in the pro gram would be for families with annual cash incomes of $2,800 and $4,000. One third of the urban fam ilies of the nation had incomes within that “middle-income” range in 1948. The endeavor, even in the eyes of the severest critics, appeared laudable, but with the cost of liv ing as it is and high income taxes for families without above-average exemptions, would still put the $8,000 home out of reach of many. AS AN INSTANCE of that sup position, Foley said average month ly payments would be about $69. That’s $828 a year. Add a $1,000 food, meat and milk bill, and the total outlay for the new home own er is $1,828. This would leave the $2,800 a year man $972. Taking av erage figures, utilities, health costs, insurance, clothing, transportation (there would be nothing with which to pay for a car) recreation and in cidentals would amount to about $516. This would leave some $400, or less than $40 a month with which to meet emergencies or other needs. So, it is easily apparent that the !,000 house, the $69 monthly pay ment and c o s t-of-living items would run the $2,800-a-year man so close to the edge, that he’d hardly have anything left for a pack of butts each week. HOMELESS: Break for DP's An easement of the present law which limits entry of displaced persons into the United States to 205.000 in the two-year period end ing June 30, this year, has been ap proved by the Senate judiciary committee. THAT GROUP voted to permit 320.000 homeless foreigners to en ter this country by June 30, 1951. This includes the approximately 124.000 who already have entered. The committee voted by 10 to 3 to approve a bill which would make other changes in thfe present DP law which President Truman has urged. For example, it would shift the date by which displaced persons must have entered European DP camps to be eligible for entry into this country. The present law fixed the date for December, 1945. The bill which the committee approved would change that to January I, 1949. THE ACTION came on the eve of the date which the senate had ordered the committee to report out a DP bill. The house bill has been approved by the committee over the protests of Chairman McCarran <D., Nev.), who was in Europe at the time. After a heated floor fight, the sen ate sent the measure back to com mittee. DRAFT LAW: Bickeiing Storts Atomic stockpiles . . . hydrogen bombs . . . billions for defense . . . incredible speed in the air . . . all these added up to a readily ap parent conception that U.S. policy is committed to a course which be lieved that he is “best defended who is best armed.” The question was: Would the com pulsory military service system be retained? The question of man power remained an intangible factor.

"Look at what happened to Hogan, the trucker, when he got mixed up with the verities. A couple of months ago, a friend tipped him off that his wife was dating a kid who worked in the brewery, and instead of mak ing like the three little monkeys, he hired a detective to follow her. When he learned his missus had been sneaking off to a dime dance hall to. jitterbug with the young One night when I dropped into Jerry’s for a firkin of foam, Long George Smiley and Sid “The Inch” Perry were at the bar as usual. As unusual, however, they were not arguing with each other but with the bartender. “The truth never hurt anybody,” said the bartender, “and the truth is I’m on the hook for 63 beers. And until you gentlemen settle up, there ain’t gonna be no 64th.” “Look,” said The Inch, “you’re a downtrodden worker yourself, and when you turn down another worker’s request for a bowl of suds, you’re committing class suicide.” “For three weeks successive,” said the bartender, “you gentlemen have been prom ising to pay up, and if it wasn’t against the rules to insult a cus tomer, I’d say you liars were m a k in g f r e e with the truth." “What’s wrong with a lie now and then?” said L o n g George. “If it wasn’t for a little banana oil, the wheels of our crumby civiliza tion would come to a dead stop.” “You couldn’t be more wrong,” said the bartender. “A wise man tells the truth on any and all oc casions.” “If you’ll excuse my elegance,” said The Inch, “that's a lot of pig shampoo.” man, he confronted her with the fulsome facts, and a few scrappy minutes later his wife was packed and on her way back to her moth er’s house in Canarsie.” “Served her right,” said the bar tender. * "Served Hogan right," sa id The Inch. "Before he found out, ' he was happy as a fly on a whis• key cork. Tonight, like every night, he's in his apartment alone, lapping up the Irish and playing tMelancholy Baby on the phono* graph.” “Besides which,” said George, “nobody has heard him say a word against his wife. But the finagling friend who tipped him off—well, he’s got an eye you couldn’t cover with an eight-dollar steak.” “You’ve got a point, maybe,” said the bartender, “but I still in sist th e r e ’3 nothing like th e truth, and the truth is you gentlemen get no more b e e r.”... “THE TRUTH, I’d like to point out,” said Long George, “is prob ably the most incendiary thing man has discovered since he learned how to rub two little sticks together. And if the case of Hogan isn’t enough, let me give you another for-instance: The gent in congress who recently insisted on inspecting Fort Knox to make sure the 20 bil lion in bullion hadn’t been hypothe cated by the Fair Dealers.” “Why shouldn’t he inspect?” said the bartender. “It’s in the public interest.” “You amaze and sadden m e,” sqid Th* Inch. “Suppose, due to a J P , GRACE NOLL CROWELL ra u e r MY Lord, I pray chat through todav I may walk patiently, Forgetting not that Thy dear hand Is leading me.

The Fiction * GARDEN SEQUENCE By Richard H. Wilkinson Corner BRYANT DREAMED a dream. He was in a garden. A beau tiful girl - sat on a white marble bench, and smiled at him across a pool filled with goldfish and pond lilies. Bright sunshine filtered down through shade trees and re- fleeted the gold 3 .„ , in the girl’s hair.-M inun B r y a n t k n e w Fiction tha^ according to Iall good dreams, he was supposed to do something—possibly to walk around the pool and bow gallantly before the girl. He began to wonder if he didn’t look somewhat like an idiot stand ing there. It was then that he heard foot steps on the flagstone path that connected the garden with the wide, screened-in porch of the house. He looked up to find Laura, his sister, coming into the garden. He was glad that Laura had come. For Laura knew all about dreams and could tell him what to do. “Bryant!” Laura exclaimed, stopping on the pool’s edge, and looking from him to the girl, “whatever in the world are yon standing here for? Why, you’re positively rude. Doris must think my brother is stupid!” Oh, yes, that was it. It was all working out fine now. Laura had asked her college roommate, Doris La Plante, down for the week-end. Of course, that was she. How stu pid of him. So Bryant walked around the pool and was introduced. He looked deep into the twin black pools that were Doris’ eyes, and apologized. His voice sounded odd, but that, of course, was because he was think ing that here was the girl he had been waiting for. Then he almost groaned aloud. Doris had looked up and said it was quite all right and she really should have introduced herself, but he added so much to the scene, Bryant slowly put his arm about her slim shoulders. standing over there so straight and silent. It was the sound of her voice that made Bryant groan; for he remembered that it was all a dream and that Doris would soon be gone. Then suddenly it was night, and they were once more in the garden. There was a full moon and a gentle breeze and music drifting down on the still air from somewhere back of the m arble bench. A week, two weeks, had gone by—Bryant wasn’t sore which —since the first meeting In the garden. He bad a dim recollec tion that they were glorlons weeks of riding and golfing and swimming and dancing—allwith Doris. |T WAS ONLY OCCASIONALLY * now that Bryant remembered it was all a dream. The dread of waking up didn’t affect him quite so poignantly. That is to say, it didn’t affect him until this night when they were alone in the gar den. Then he was seized with a sudden panicky sensation. And so quite abruptly Bryant turned and .said without prelimin aries: “Doris, darling, I love you. I know this is all a dream, there fore I’m telling you now before I wake up. I’ve waited all my life for such a girl as you. It seems cruel that you’d come to me only in a dream .”. And Doris turned up her face to bis, with the moon making shad ows of her eyes, and said: “I love you, too, Bryant, and I’m glad you waited for me. I hardly know what I would have done had I dis covered you belonged to some one else.” Bryant thought this over and de cided that the dream had turned out just the way he would have ordered. He'd better wake himself up, he thought, before he did something to spoil it. But before he could pinch himself, which was the conventional way of waking oneself from a dream, Doris laid her head on his shoulder. Bryant looked down at the gold en head. “Doris,” he said brokenly, “this is all a dream , and in a min ute you’ll be gone and I’ll find my self Eilone. You’re not real.” But Doris laughed softly, and snuggled closer. Bryant slowly put his arm about her slim shoul ders. She was there, close against him. Her lips were upturned, and as Bryant bent to kiss them, he knew that when again he opened his eyes, she’d still be there—and would always be there. K sw oni PiiniE MST WEEK'S ANSWER ^ ACROSS1.

That was in 1932. It was his ambition to produce motion pic tures—“Johnny Holiday”, made at that same reform school, is his first RONNIE ALCORN one, and he plans eight more, for United Artists release. His story is fantastic, that of an under privileged boy bom to be a success (he had made his first million by the time he was 30) who took plenty of hard knocks on the way to achieving it. He has a second am bition — to help as many under privileged boys as possible; he hat already done a terrific job at it. We’re always hearing about movie stars who dash from one set to another on a bicycle, when work ing in two pictures. And about radio performers who leap from studio to studio in taxis. But Kent Smith has out-done them all. For a week he commuted daily by plane between Hollywood and San Francisco, to do a stage role and finish a picture. His latest is “My Faollsh Heart.” Vera Vagne may sound dumb as a man-chasing comedienne on the air—at present on Jim my Durante’s program on NBO —but away from the radio Vera, otherwise Barbara Jo Al len, can talk for honrs about orchids, her two hothouses, and the third one she’s bonding. During the Oiristmas holidays her white orchids retailed In New York for $25 apiece. Not bad! Teresa Wright invited her hus band, Niven Busch, to visit her on the set when she did some torrid love scenes with Marlon Brando for “The Men.” He stalked out, blushing. But Robert Cummings’ wife was present when he made love scenes with Lizabeth Scott and Diana Eynn for “Paid in Full,” time after time, and nobody was the least bit embarrassed by the routine.

PINKHAM’S COMPOUHD^ R Something’s Cooking IT LOOKS like an explosion was brewing inside the Republican party. A senator’s .snort plus troubled questions are portents of trouble. The snort, came from that m erry old soul of Republican conserva tism, the delightful and brainy Eu gene Millikin of Colorado, at an outraged gathering of minority senators. Senator Millikin, an important looking man with a huge, bald head, listened with an amused twinkle to gripes hurled at the Re publican national committee. Then he snorted: “The trouble with the national committee is they are Iiv- ing in an antediluvian age.’’ Coming from millionaire Sen ator Millikin, this is extremely significant, yet it’s typical of the reaction of moderate Re publicans to the high, wide and handsome campaign by the party’s right wing against “me- toolsm.” Another troubled question was raised recently by Vic Johnston, conscientious man-of-all-work for the GOP congressional campaign committee. He inquired of Repub lican friends: “What can I tell my son? He wrote from college that he’s considering leaving the Repub lican party because he thinks it does not offer anything for youth.” “Progressives’” Advice Unheeded Two “progressive” Republicans have answers, but so far they haven’t been listened to. Scholarly Sen. Irving Ives of New York ad vises: “To attract the support es sential to our success, we Republi cans must stand for things. We m ust show that we have genuine solicitude for the welfare of all the people. The reactionaries are liv ing in a dream world and can only destroy the Republican party at a tim e when there is a tragic need for an intelligent opposition to the Fair Deal." Similar advice comes from the young, hard-hitting Massachusetts senator, Henry Cabot Lodge, Jr., who says: “We need a positive pro gram to win elections. Other Rumbles Other signs of the coming explo sion are: 1.) “WILD BILL” Langer, the bull - throated independent from North Dakota, was calmly eating in the senate restaurant when GOP leader Ken Wherry strolled by. The m ere sight of Wherry aroused Langer to an angry snarl. “They’re trying to read me out of the party,” he said, “and there goes one of the so-and-sos who’d like to do it. But I’ll show them. I’ve been stomping up and down North Dakota and the people don’t want to go back to McKinley." 2.) REPUBLICAN regulars in Oregon, backed up by lumber in terests and a $150,000 campaign kit ty, are preparing a 90-day “blitz krieg” against progressive ' Sen. W ayne M orse in the GOP primary. 3.) LAST STRAW for many Re publicans in congress was a de mand that they buy blocks of tick ets for the Lincoln day “box sup per” at the Uline arena in Wash ington. Senator Morse sent the tickets back with a note, “I cannot afford to spend this money. I need it in my own campaign, and I am quite sine I will not receive any fi nancial support from the national committee." Acidly commented Senator Lodge: “This is a new low from the high of Abraham Lincoln. There are too many big-time lobbyists mixed up in this affair. This is not the way to win confidence in the party.” NOTE — What GOP strategists seem to forget is that in order to win elections they have to woo away Democratic votes. It isn’t enough merely to get the same number of Republican voters. The man most successful In winning Democratic votes has been Gov. Earl W arren of California, who, when last elected, had both the Democratic and the Republican nominations. “Honest, Honey” Vice-President Barkley was intro ducing his lovely wife around in the office of his good friend, Senate Sec retary Les Biffle. The Veep came to Biffle’s secretary, bowed and said, “This is Betty Darling.” With a twinkle and a wink at Mrs. Darling, Barkley said merrily, “That’s her name, honest, hbney.” Oi Salle Is Comer Mike Di Salle, vigorous young mayor of Toledo, was shot out of the cannon with a bang in the Ohio senatorial race. On the same day he announced, Di Salle grabbed the potent support of Mayor Tom Burke of Cleveland. Result will be a rough-and-tumble scrap for the Democratic nomina tion between Di Salle, who had made labor peace history with his Toledo management council, and “Jumpin’ Joe” Ferguson, the state auditor.

Satan's Throne Lesson for February 26, 1950 Mt HOLD NO BRIEF for him” is — a lawyer’s expression often borrowed by other people. A law yer who holds a brief for a man has been employed to represent him. It is his duty to present the man in the best light possible. Now we know about the early church at Corinth from two sources: Luke a n d Paul. The book of Acts w a s written, among other rea sons, to show that the Christian church, far from being a subversive movement as its Dr Foreman enemies c la im e d was a benefit to the world. Of course this was true; but since this was Luke’s purpose, he naturally omitted as much of the church’s shortcomings as he could, and played up the good features. * * * Church with the Lid Off Paul, on the other hand, writing to the church at Corinth (and to others as well), held no brief for them. He was not* trying to praise them or to tell anybody how good they were. He knew them intimately; he had indeed converted most of the members. Hi3 letters to Corinth, from which our lesson gives a small sample, shows us a church “with- the lid Off;” * * * Where Satan’s Throne Is V EAK S AFTERWARD, another • Christian writer said of another church that they lived “where Satan’s throne is.” You might al most have said the sam e thing of Corinth. It was a large commercial city; people from everywhere fun- neled into it. Like any city of this sort it had eajnea a reputation for wickedness or every kind—drink, liquor, gambling, women, cut throat business, rotten politics—it was all there. Even in the easy going Roman world, Corinth was notorious. Corinth was a sort of man- made jungle, like our own great cities today. It made a sort of test case: If the church could succeed in Corinth it could succeed anywhere. If the power of Christ could make new men and women out of the denizens of that great city, there was no jungle, man-made or nature-made, where Christ could not go. Can men and women be Christian in the midst of a non- Christian, e v e n anti-Christian world?• * * Our Pagan World PA UL’S ANSWER, of course, » — Yes: on one condition. You m ust take your pattern for living from Jesus, not from the world around you. The big problem at Corinth, which included all other problems, was the fact that the Christians there were acting too much like the people outside the church. Christians must be differ ent! insisted Paul. This is not an echo of a bygone time. Our own world is a new Cor inth. Even into the remotest village, the most isolated farm, the world of our time pushes in, by radio, movies, magazines and papers and advertis ing, even by schools and clubs. And it is a pagan world. Take the movies alone, that fer tile source of most young people’s ideas. Hollywood's idea of m ar riage—a tem porary affair till bore dom do us part; Hollywood’s idea of a good time—liquor flowing free; Hollywood’s idea of success —an immense house with an even bigger swimming pool. Not that there are no good mov ing pictures; but in general what is made glamorous on a thousand screens is anything but a Christian world.* * • And Be Ye Separate pA U L KNEW it is not practical * to have no contact with evil. He would not approve of Christians going into monasteries where they would henceforth see none but top- grade saints. Christians have to live in the world, even if they live where Satan’s throne is. But Chris tians ought to be different. The world says: Drink makes no difference; men of distinction all do it. The Christian knows better; Christ’s man of distinction will keep himself clean. The world says: Let yourself go, follow your impulses, look out for yourself. The Christian knows better: he is one bought with a price. We that are strong ought to help the weak and not to please ourselves. The world says: Do as other people do!

He headed straight for his tormentor, jarred him with a stiff left hook, lifted him a foot off the ground with a terrific uppercut, grabbed him before he could fall, and tossed him half way across the room. He then turned to the judge and ex plained, “I pushed the plaintiff just about one-tenth as hard as that, Your Honor.” Holly Species Of some 180 species of holly growing in various parts of the world, only about a dozen a r e found in die United States.

THE MIRACLE DRUG THAT GIVES YOU THE BEST CHANCE TO STOP COLDS THE FIRST DAY THE DAVIE RECORD, MOCKSVlLLE N. C . FEBRUARY 22 1950 Cluc to Leukemia’s Cause Ii Reported by Chemists Discovery of a significant chem ical clue to the cause of myelocytic leukemia, a cancerous condition of white blood cclls, was reported by Dr. Albert A. Dietz and Dr. Bernhard Steinberg of the Toledo Hospital Institute of Medical Re search, Toledo, Ohio. Explaining that one of the main types of white cells, known as myelocytes or granulocytes, ■ is produced exclusively by bone m ar row, the report said that a compar ison of the marrow of normal per sons with that of myelocytic leu kemia victims revealed a “signifi cant variation” in a chemical con stituent called inorganic sulfate. In cases of myelocytic leukemia, which is marked by the runaway production of r. yelocytes, the in organic sulfate was greater than either in normal marrow or in that obtained from patients with lymphocytic leukemia. “This indicates,” the scientists declared, “that the chemical is involved in some way in the me tabolism of the type of white blood cell which multiplies without re straint in myelocytic leukemia. In the concept held by us, an abnor mality in the sulfur metabolism may represent one of the trigger mechanisms which sets off and produces disease such as leukemia. Appreciation of the role played by sulfur in the marrow may lead us to a better understanding of the cause a n d treatm ent of the disease.” Further tests indicated that the water and protein content of the marrow is increased in both types of leukemia, the report continued, »nd that there is a coresponding decrease in fat content. AU other chemical parts of bone marrow, such as inorganic phos phate, protein sulfur, and non-pro- tein nitrogen, do not show any significant changes in the leuke mic marrow, according to the Toledo chemists, who concluded, therefore, that there chemicals may be considered as not impor tant in leukemia insofar as the present investigation is concerned. Wool Shrinkage Control Explained by Specialist With the rapid strides being made in reducing shrinkage of wool fabrics, the' woolens you buy this season should serve you better than before. Since wool has the happy faculty of taking dye well, the jewel-like Victorian colors now in vogue are particularly pretty to wool. Although real progress has been made in making wool shrink-resis tant, the wise consumer still in sists on a labeled wool or fabric. Such labels should tell the shrink age process used and the percent age of shrinkage that may be ex pected. The main processes for control ling wool shrinkage are two in num ber. The chemical process includes wet and dry chlorination or the enzyme and alcoholic alkali treat ments which tend to modify the structure of the fiber in varying de grees—thus curbing the fiber’s mi grations. Then there are the resins that are used to impregnate or coat the fibers. They also control felting and shrinkage. Of course, wool, like any fabric, requires care for the best of service. For laundering wool garments, it is imperative to use mild detergents, lukewarm water (If)O degrees) for both washing and Tinsingj to squeeze and blot out moisture rather than wringing. Dr-’ing should be done away from direct heat. For wool apparel that is not laundered, remember to hang on hangers when not in use, to brush frequently, and air occasionally. Color Talks Ta You During World War II, color sig nals were put to good use in the construction of airplanes. Inside a fighting plane, for instance, there was a bewildering maze of tubing —oil lines, gasoline lines, brake fluid lines, de-icer fluid lines, etc. —as well as electric wires com posing countless circuits. When a pipe or a wire got broken, it had to be repaired—fast. If the me chanic had needed to figure out where to attach the new connec tions, the time consumed miphl have spelled disaster. But the de signers arranged it so that he didn’t have to think at all. He merely connected red with red green with green, and the repair was made. There was a eo!~r ohari which identified color with func tion, in case he had the time and inclination to study into the jobs performed by the different wires and pipes. Insects by Mass Production The University of Wisconsin Alumni research foundation main tains a laboratory which breeds more than 20 species of insects. Each day the laboratory produces around 8,000 flies, 1,000 cock roaches, 1,000 clothes moths, 500 pea aphids, and hundreds of red spiders, carpet beetles, etc. These are used in testing insecticides for manufacturers. Flies are divided into groups of 50 for tests. To simplify the counting job, they are put to sleep with gas. D o Y o o W a n t T o C u t Y o u r F e d e r a l T a x e s ? Your Wasted Taxes No reasonable man questions the need for taxes to pay the cost of gov ernmental services. Everyone should be willing to pay a fair share of his income for that purpose. But nobody wants to underwrite extravagance— In the home, in business or in govern ment. Th* bi-partisan Commission on Or ganization of the Executive Branch of the Government, created by Congress with the approval of President Tru man and headed by former President Hoover, has provided a chart for the elimination of governmental extrava gance and waste. This past year, because of duplica tion and overlapping in the Armed Services we wasted about one billion out of the fifteen billion spent for National Security. In 1948 two agencies planned to build the same dam in nearly the same place at Hell’s Canyon, Idaho. Each set of plans cost about $250,000. The plans differed by approximately 76 million dollars in estimated cost of erection.It now costs the Post OiRce Depart ment two and a half cents to print and deliver a penny post card. The Veterans Administration, at the time of the Commission’s survey, had 6,500 empty beds in its hospitals, yet VA and other government agencies bave planned or are building addi tional hospitals at a cost of over a bil lion dollars, when 5-IrV of the avail able beds are not now occupied. This is Alice in Wonderland. It takes more than $10 worth of paper work to complete a govern mental purchase order. For example, by the time the necessary paper work is completed, a 50* typewriter ribbon costs the taxpayer about $10. Turnover of labor is recognized by all industry as expensive. Yet in the Federal Government labor turnover runs about 25 per cent, a rate much higher than any private business could stand. This means that every year approximately 600,000 either leave or enter a government job. The person nel system is clogged with red tape. The best men leave because of Uie low pay scale, and the inefficient can not easily be discharged. If enacted into law, the Commission recommendation to remedy these and other defects in conducting our Fed eral business would save the taxpayer three to four billion dollars a year. To play your part in putting a stop io this wasteful extravagance, join the non-partisan Citizens Committee, which is working for the enactment of the Commission’s suggestions.

The owner spoke to the trainer about it. “Yes,” the trainer began to ex plain. “You remember that brown ring at the tip of his tail, don’t you?” “Oh, yes, of course,” said the owner, “I knew there was some thing missing. What happened to it?” “I guess I had him trained too well,” replied the trainer. “I was taking him for a walk without his leash when he spied a cat. He started after it and soon they were both going around the block so fast that the block seemed to be just a tree. Suddenly the cat dashed across the street. A truck was coming down the street and, instinctively, I yelled to the driver to 'Stop.’ Trixie heard roe. and thought the command was meant for him. He stopped so fast that the ring that was on the tip of his tail now encircles his nose.” EVEN-STEPHEN Joe sat beside his dying partner, keeping the deathbed vigil. “.Tee,” the dying man breathed with an air of repentance, “I have a con fession to make. Joe, I robbed the firm of $10,000 I sold our secret formula to the competitors for $50,000. And Joe, I stole the letter from your desk that got your wife her divorce, and Joe . . “That’s okay, old chap,” Joe murmured.

He was standing, chatting with a group of stuffed dowagers when one of them expressed her sym pathy at his beiny born in a small coaltown in Pennsylvania. "What a pity,” she said. “Why must you have f.?en bom there?” The man looked at her coldly, "I merely wanted to be close to my mother.” ASKING TOO MUCH A farmer, whose barn was situa ted right on the township line, con sented to let a party of surveyors work on his property when they asked permission. He watched them curiously and when they traced the line right through the big double doors of the barn he be came alarmed. “Say,” he said, “yew fellers is measurin’ fer th’ new railroad ain’t ye?” “Sure,” replied the chief survey or, who liked his little joke. “Well,” drawled the farmer, “I don't mind the railroad building tracks through my property but I’ll be danged if I’m going to get up in the middle of the night to open the doors for the train to go through:” Boger & Howard PU R E SERVICE Tir<_s’ Batteries A ndA ccessories K urfees Paints C om er N .

Glad of any heip at all, the con tractor sent the new man out on a housing job. A few hours later, when he went out to see how the man was getting along, he groaned at the sight before him. “For heaven’s sake,” he cried, “I told you to cut one hole in this roof.

As two men were standing talking on the pavement in a Lancashire town a funeral came by. It was observed that a bag of golf clubs was resting on the coffin in the hearse. "He must have been a keen golfer,” observed one of the on lookers. “Must have been?” said the other. “Is. He’s going on a match this afternoon. That’s his wife's funeral.” Knew She’d Get It They had agreed to share all their secrets during their married life so the young bride didn’t feel too guilty when she opened a let ter addressed to her husband. It was from his mother and -con tained the usual Smalltalk. She was all ready to put the letter back into the envelope and reseal it as if it had never been opened when she noticed a postscript. “Dear Catherine,” it read, “I know you have a lot of influence with my son, so will you please see that he puts his rubbers on when it rains?” Of Course Not •THINKING it was very strange “ that a man who could support four dogs should have to resort to stealing a lamb to feed his family the judge said, “You may have to steal a lamb to feed your family and yet, by your own admission, you have four dogs.
