One hour it wants to be spring and the next it clouds up and feels like snow. Recording for posterity and conflicting niemorie.s, it has not snowed yet this winter. Last Sunday was groundhog day and this fellow who gets talked about more by staying underground than anybody who manages to stay above it, saw his shadow. He is sup posed to return at half past March. But the bluebirds are also out — and you can’t fool a bluebird of happiness. Jon quils, narcissi, crocuses, hy acinth bulbs are well out of the ground. Still the snow birds are everywhere. It’s all very contusing and one cannot decide when to be or not to be—without their long winter underwear.

Dam Case Still Has Injunction Fate of High Point's proposed $6,000,000 hydro-electric project on the Yadkin River now rests with the state utilities commis sion, under a ruling _made _last Friday by the Supreme Court. The Court, in an opinion writ ten by Chief Justice W. P. Stacy, ruled that the project must be authorized by a certificate of convenience and necessity from the utilities commission. The ruling was contained in a judge- nrtnt which remanded to the Guilford County Superior Court a judgement voiding an injunc tion which the Supreme Court had previously upheld. The ruling placed another legal barrier in High Point’s path and also dismissed an appeal in a similar Vadkin County case pending final settlement of the Guilford County litigation. In the Yadkin case the Superior Court had voided an injunction when High Point and Yadkin eliminated differences arising from Hie proposed project. In writing his opinion Justice Stacy stated that "to say the defendants may avail themselves ot the benefits of the several enactments and at the same time repudiate their limitations and conditions, or to hold that the court is without jurisdiction in the premises, would be to an nounce a doctrine at once novel and confused. “Much of what has been said,” he continued, “seems to proceed upon the assumption that the High Point Board of Power Com missioners can pull itself up by Its bootstraps Into a field of municipal activity broader thananii py iim am The Bushnell club has becjn awarded the 4-H Club banner for Iwing the most outstanding club in Swain County in 1940, reports H.

Stacy wrote that the present question was whether High Point is entitled to relief from the pre viously-granted Injunction. "We are not at liberty to reverse the former decision even if regard ed as erroneous, which it is not. Nor are we permitted to decide the case as legislators substi tuting our own notions of policy for those of the General Assem bly as c.xpresscd in the statutes,” Justice Stacy wrote. He continued: “It is to be re membered that the City ot High Point is here proceeding with a project not in the exercise of its municipal powers, but pursuant to special legislative authority. “The legislation is new and guity. The undertaking is like wise out of the ordinary. Lia bility to taxation has sought to be avoided. Difficulties' have been encountered. It is_ agreed on ali hands, however, that the defendants are authorized to proceed only as the law pres cribes.” Under the ruling, which meant, hi effect, that the City of High Point cannot change statutes In thr-mlddlfr -of lltlgatio-n-in -its attempt to secure the project, the injunction against building the dam is still in force.

PRESS .ASSOCIATION Who To Blame \Vhen you overhear someone remark that so and so “always gets the breaks” or “he is born to luck,” bear in mind that chap believes that a man hasn’t a chance if he doesn’t have pull behind him. It is probably true that there are many people right here who seem to have had a long run'of misfortune which is termed as bad luck. There are other folks that seem to be especially blessed, whatever they undertake. But to become so disillusion ed that you feel you have had no chance, that you have been unsuccessful because of lack of backing by influen tial people, that your life is just a gamble anyhow and you seem to lose however you place your bets, then comes the time to take personal inventory and find out what is wrong inside of oneself to have such a false con ception of values. Go over your list of acquaintances and figure who are the popular ones, those liked by everyone around them, who seem to get everything out of life, can tackle any job and conquer any situation. They always have kindness heaped upon them, and yet they give away in the community so much of the good within themselves. There are all kinds of us! There is the one who is al ways on time and the other who is always late. This chap looks like he stepped from a band-box and that one as though he just got out of bed. Some you can trust in polite society and others are better off at the kitchen table. This one cares for his home, his church, his yard. That man raises twice the crops on half the space as his neighbor. So what is the explanaUon _except„it_be .found within oneselfTand who better to fhid it than oneself. A Whopper Is Corrected TUU 111U.V il^V6 ildtrCSa an Associated Fress dispatcii from Wilson, N. C., describing the experience of three ten ant farmers who went out to cut an old pine tree for firewood. In successive hollows they found a nest of squirrels, a den of raccoons, 200 pounds of pure honey, and finally, a nice fat ’possum. Well, we have a very persistent North Carolinian on jour staff, and naturally he noticed it too. “They didn’t get it straight,” he complained. “The way it happened was this: First, they chopped open the hollow at the top and found the squirrels. Then they found a hollow containing 150 pounds of the finest paper shell pecans. They chopped some more and found a passel of ’coons, including a rare albino— snow white and worth a lot of money. They chopped some more, and found the 200 pounds of pure honey; but remember this was an old bee tree, so why overlook the 500 pounds of beeswax? They chopped some more, and out popped a fat ’possum. They chop^d some more and out popped a bag full of gold the Confederates had hid from the Yankees. They chopped some more, and out popped the Mocksville correspondent of the Winston-Salem Journal.

Wesson, Army Chief of Ordnance, told an Army Ordnancc Association Chapter Meeting in Birmingham that “in point of time we are at least six montlis ahead of our record in the World War. In contracts placed we are at least 500 percent . . . (ahead).” Sub-Contracting Urged OPM Management Engineer Morris Cooke made public a statement, issued by an NDAC- called conference of industrial engineers, urging increased farm ing out of defense contracts. The statement said tliat “owners and managers of smaller plants have not appreciated the possibility that their facilities would and should be fully engaged in de fense production” and recom. mended that each prime con tractor “set up a group within his own organization to special ize in the handling of .sub-con tractors.” “A great part if not all of the manufacturing machinery of the country, regardless of age, can be brought into use," Mr. Cooke said. Defense Must Cunie First Director E. R.

Army Health The War Department stated that plans have been completed for construction of three addi tional Army general hospitals which would bring to a total of nine the general hospitals under construction for the Army. New hospitals announced this week: Fort Dix, New Jersey, 1,000 beds; Fort Devens. Massa chusetts, 1,000 beds, and Spring field, Missouri 1,000 beds.

Secretary of Labor Perkins later stated that the expanded Federal shipbuilding program would give employment to 253,400 additional workers by June 1942. The Secretary said the enlargeS program would require an addi tional 126,000 skilled workers, (?2.100 .»iPml-rVlllpH wnrkpr.»; nnri under the Selective Scrvlcc Act.

Congress had author ized a $1,209,000,000 additional emergency naval program. Under the new program the Navy would be able to build 400 auxiliary vessels at a cost of $400,000,000; spend $315,000,000 to supply ship yard facilities to spend construc tion of these and other Navy vessels; spend $194.000,000 for additional gun and armor fac tories to keep, the supply of this equipment abreast of the ship building speed-up.

Agriculture and Defense NDAC Commissioner Davis, speaking before the Illinois Agri cultural Association at a meet ing in St. Louis offered a five- point program to lessen the ef. fects of losses of foreign markets due to the war: 1. Discover and develop plans to Increase consumption of food and fiber at home; 2. Extend the policy of storing food and fiber against enlarged domestic consumption In the future or the reopening of foreign ship ments; 3. Provide for the United Kingdom to take from the United States the normal proportion of agricultural commodities which she must import (by relieving pressure on dollar exchange); 4.

Answer: Buttermilk or' sour skim milk are the best feeds for chicks when they are first placed under the canopy, advis? poultry specialists of the St.at<> College Extension Service. Tliey should also have access to dry mash and water. Another good feed is cooked infertile eggs left over from the first candling. Grain feed may be given after the first seven to ten days.

Highligbts Of The Sunday School Lesson The Sunday School Lesson for FebriMfy 9 is, "The Christian Attitude Toward Possessions.”— Luke XVL On the road to the traditional site of the Garden of Eden, down Mosul way, along the Tigris Rlv, er, whore the oil wells arc, dwell a curious people called Yezldls. They are devll-worshlppers; and, significantly, their sacred em blem Is a peacock. Only at the risk of a fight may one speak disrespectfully of Satan In the presence of a Yezldl. Rather closely paralleling the Yezldls' are the Mammon-wor- shlppers. Of course, there are outward differences. The Yezl dls wear flowing oriental robes and turbans, and are as poor as most Asiatics. The Mammon- worshippers, contrariwise, dwell in luxurious houses, ride in auto mobiles, wear expensive clothes, eat sumptuously every day and enjoy countless privileges. Nevertheless, the Bible deals sternly with those who worship Mammon, which Is but another -name-oi-goldr-^And Jesus-made It clear that those who trust In their riches, "the Mammon of unrighteousness,” are In for a poor time at the end. Gentlest of teachers. He had bitter, scornful and warning words for that class of men who are In the grip of gold. Love of money, does something dreadful to men’s spirits. In the present hour, with the world in a llfe-and-death struggle that “ sMouId“inspire everyone to neroic sacrifice, we find the shadow of personal gain falling blackly across our desperate military preparations. Defense activities have Been slowed up by a greed for profits. There actually are a host of contemptible creatures. wearing the outward form of manhood, who look upon this tragic struggle as merely their opportunity to grow rich,‘or to increase their wages. Gold, which is Itself uncorrod. able, yet has the peculiar quality of corrodinir thn snlrits of those who give it, mastery. There is no crime In all the long category, from treason to theft and mur der, that men will not commit for the sake of money. “The love of money Is a root of all evil.” Short of the grosser offenses against the law are the count less forms of selfishness, of cal- lous-heartedness, of unbrotherly social Irresponsibility which mark the conduct of men who are Mammon - worshippers. Jesus was in true succession to the Old Testament prophets when He excoriated the rich of His day. He definitely shuts out the slaves of money from the good life and from future rewards, when He says, "Ye cannot serve God and Mammon.” There Is room In a life for only one su preme allegiance: we are either God’s-men-or-gold's-menT "Give Them Hell” No reader can open-mlndedly peruse the recorded words ot the gentle, forbearing Jesus without being struck by tho em phasis i^c h He placed jip^n a future life as an essential factor In this present life. He was forever speaking of the rewards of heaven: that assurance was His farewell comfort to His fri ends In the upper room. And to Modern “liberal” theology has discarded the Idea of hell, flatly ignoring, or trying to explain away, the explicit teachings for Jesus upon this uncomfortable subject. Naturally, If ultimate punishment is not to be feared, the exploiter, the sensualist and -the-.CJJmlnal_rtiay_Iront-.tlie-J[u- tnrp untroubled. There was power In the preach ing of an earlier day, because there was punishment proclaim ed, as well as the rewards of the Christian life. We are not speaking according to scripture when we omit hell from the pre sentation of truth. II there Is no justice In the hereafter, how may we look for justice In the here and now? Nothing but the terrors of hell can change the llfes of a Dives. As the stern old hymn had it, "There is a time, we know not when, A place, we know not where, That marks the destiny of men. For glory or for despair.” The Wise Wealthy While the Scriptures deal vivid ly with the rich whd are heedless and self-engrossed and oppres sive. It offers no blanket Indict ment against wealth. The pros perous friends of Jesus, who sin. cerely walk His Way, are an an swer to that sort of demagogu- ery. While It Is eternally true that “we cannot serve God and Mammon” It Is equally true that we may serve God with Mam mon. Possessors of this world’s goods who are dominated by a sense of stewardship, who both give and live, may be great ser vants of the kingdom. There is a wide distinction between those who possess riches and those whom riches possess. Lovers of money and stewards of money are tmn rilffgrnnt hrooHc nf pi'rcnnc Return From Snain tlre-penltenL thief on the cross He promised Paradise that very day. On the other hand, and no. where more vividly than In the story of Dives and Lazarus, He portrayed again and again the retributions of a future life. Not all rich are destined for perdition, and not all of the poor merit Paradise. The real test Is, which comes first, love of God or love of gold? By that measure our fate here and hereafter Is determined. REA Power Lines Near Completion HUNTING CREEK. — T h e power line of the REA near Hunt ing Creek is almost completed.

WAR BOOM TAKES TOLL IN TREES The war boom has created an upsurge In Yadkin County’s lum ber Industry with the result that more local timber has been sold within the past 30 days than In any month during the first World War, local lumbermen said today. With the huge government building projects at Fort Bragg and Radford, Va., causing a heavy demand, every saw-mlll in the county Is running to capa city production. Huge trac;s of Yadkin timber is being placed on the market. Result of this boom in thnber is causing a serious deforestation In the county, according to local farm officials. These officials say that .unless steps are taken immediately to replace this tim ber, Yadkin’s fields In the next generation will be naked of trees except those which are of no use for lumber. SLAUGHTERED Recent reports from Vichy say that most of the cattle In un occupied Prance will soon have to be slaughtered because of a critical shortage of com, barley, oats, and other feed.

ENTERPRISE FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 7, 1941 HITLER SAYS GERMANY READY TO STRIKE "BLOW OF DECISION" SOON BERLIN. — Proclaiming that Germany Is ready to strike _a mighty "blow of dcclslon" against Britain this spring, Adolf Hitler ■warned the United States that every American ship attempting to carry last-minute aid to the British “wllf be torpedoed.” Germany and Italy are ready ii the United States chooses tq plunge Into the war and "anyone ■who seeks to destroy Germany •will get a rude awakening,” the Reichsfuehrer said In defiant an-' swer to President Roosevelt’s pro-1 gram of all-out aid to Britain. The Fuehrer asserted. In a speech broadcast throughout the| world, that Germany has no| quarrel with the American people but that “if they attempt per haps to intervene In the Euro pean continent that will only bring all the more quickly a change In our objective.” Hitler spoke, with explosions of hatred and a smattering of wise-, cracks, before a wildly cheering crowd of more than 13,000 at the Berlin Sportspalast on the eighth anniversary of his rise to power as chancellor and master of Ger many. Germany has secret weapons— he called them “blue wonders,” the German Idiom for big sur prises—In store for the mighty assault on Britain by land, sea and air, Hitler boasted. His 90-mlnute speech promis ing a final German victory In 1941 was heard throughout Ger many and Nazi-conquered Eu- rone ns well ns bv millions nhrnad through radio hookups extendln to Italy, Japan, Slovakia, Hun gary, Bulgaria, Finland, Jugosla via and other countries.

TO "SEND US TOOLS"-NOT SOLDIERS LONDON.—If the United States will “send us the tools, Great Britain can “finish the job” of defeating Adolf Hitler and Benito Mussolini without the aid of an American expeditionary force, Prime Minister Winston Churchill declared in a Sunday night radio address. “We do not need the gallant armies which are forming throughout the American union,’ he said. We do not need them this year, nor next year, nor any year that I can foresee. "But we do need most urgently an immense and continuous supply of war materials, and we need them here, and we need to bring them here. We shall need a great mass of shipping in 1942, for more than we can build ourselves, if we are to maintain and augment our war effort in the west and in the east.” He warned that Hitler would “do his utmost to prey upon our shipping and reduce the volume of American supplies.” | With this, Churchill coupled another warning that the long- predicted Oerman Invasion might be near at hand. | “We must all be prepared to meet gas attacks, parachuto at- POSTAL RECEIPTS Postal receipts at the local postoffice in January were $1,- 071.98, it Is reported by J.

Spain’s dictator, meet Wednes day and reach a “complete identity of views” on the Eu ropean situation, it is reported from Madrid. Franco and Retain arc also scheduled for a meeting. Rumors fly thick and fast on the purpose of the mysterious meetings. The view generally held in Washington and London is that Mussolini, at Hitler’s direction, is seeking to bring Franco into the war, something he has shied away from thus far. Other reports are that an armistice is being proposed between Italy and England with Petain the mediator. Thus Hitler would be free to fight the war only on the front against the British Isles. Britian, how ever, flatly denies any peace move. Britian breaks off diplomatic relations with Rumania and warns that they (Britian) will bomb Rumania oil fields. Germany is reported moving a big army into Bul garia and Russia tells Bulgaria that she will give her no aid in case Germany moves troops across Bulgaria to get at Greece or Turkey.

ENTERPRISE PAGE 3 AWAITS INVASION By Pclcr Lync LONDON. — With spokesmen the world over joining In the Chorus of warning that Britain is about lo be the object of a desperate Nazi invasion attempt, how are the ordinary British people facing such a prospect? Do they think it is really going to happen? Are Uiey frightened? Are the civilians clear as to what they are to do if the Germans land? It is hardly surprising that in vasion has become the universal topic everywhere in Britain since the political leaders at home have been renewing their exhor tations to the home front to reach an even higher pitch of readiness, and military experts have been expressing stronger convictions that Reichsfuhrer Initier must humble Britain itself if he l3 to win. In addition Herr Hitler and the Nazi propagandists have themselves been voicing fresh threats of invasion and responsible Americans have been ut tering grave words such as those of United States Secretary of the Navy Frank Knox that British people must expect a crisis with in «0 to 90 days and that the Oermana are contemplating the uae of gas “in a big way." In the past few days I have diacuMcd the inTaalon with a large variety of British folk and the outstanding conclusion that I have drawn is that almost with out exception the ordinary peo ple are completely undaunted by the prospect of what might prove to be an unparalleled assault in the history of warfare.

He has been observing aerial tactics in the Battle of Britain for the past three months. of more practical precautions for civilians. The Times of London devotes a leading editorial to this need. One of the main reasons says The Times "for the success of the German invasion of France was that it was a surprise in a psy chological as well as as a mili tary sense. It is not true that no precautions wore taken In France; but they had neither the scope nor the effect necessary be cause of the confidence felt by the French public In the Magl- not Line . . . for these reasons Interest in an invasion Is to be encouraged in this country. It is certainly not synonymous with panic or with pessimism.” ultimate victory would almost sooner face an Invading army with all the destruction and temporary chaos it might entail than contemplate the alternative prospect of a persistent continu ation of the bombing campaign, Civilian measures to meet in vasion have necessarily io be mainly along lines of mental pre paredness, apart from the keep- Ing of small stores of food and other vital necessities against any temporary emergency. While there are some who undoubtedly tend io ah escapist attitude and to whom an actual invasion might be a sufficient shock to cause them to panic, the vast majority feel that their almost daily experiences under fire from Nazi bombers has given them Charlie McDaniel, Roy and-Mc^JBrevctte_______ Stroud Mr. and Mrs. Dock Daniel and children, Linda Faye and Donald Lee, of Ephesus, were the Sun day dinner guests of Mr. and Mrs. Jay Smith.

For Instance, the great army of gardners and allotment holders, augmented by thousands of new recruits since the war started, are actually thinking more seriously of how many extra onions—now as rare as roses at Christmas—can be grown than of the invasion. Among the reasons for this re signed and courageous attitude is the undoubtedly strong under- current of thought that the in vasion may never occur, since it wasn’t attempted when Britain was at its weakest and since the barriers against the Germans are now enormously suengthehed. Fully Prepared Although this attitude is be ing constantly attacked by news paper editors as well as by the Nation’s leaders lest it should lead to apathy and unprepared- ncss, generally speaking. I have found civilians, even when they do not really expect invasion, are nevertheless fully prepared for it. In contemplating an invasion, the British derive some encour agement from the belief that should a full-scale attempt be made, its defeat would probably ■ bring the war nearpr to nn pnH■ Ulilia »11 »^IMI than any other military event.

When a woman of 95 already has been commended by the King for extinguishing an incendiary bomb; when some hardy Dover housewive.s still calmly go shopping even when the German guns across the Eng- lish_Cl\anneLane_iiaundiiiB_thoir town; when children scramble in the streets for the privilege of dealing with fire bombs, then it is inconceivable to the British that their country could be easily overrun. Britons know well the official instructions for civilians if the Germans land: “Stay put” so as to leave the roaods open for the military. But what happens if I am at Vir pgopif; have been asking. Here it is felt fuller official advice might be forthcoming as well as regional qualifications of the “stay put” order so that if a landing oc curred in Kent workers hundreds of miles away in Liverpool would not promptly barricade them selves in their homes for an in- ■deftnite-stay; Emergency Action But over such questions most citizens are satisfied that the men and women in one or the other of civilian defense organ izations, who now constitute a large proportion of the popula tion, will tell them what to do as the situation develops. Gas would doubtless greatly add to the ordeal of an invaded Brit ain. But the population has l>een provided with masks, which it is declared, will afford ade quate protection and the “stay put” order would be even more rigorously enforced if gas were about. Besides, the practical dif ficulties In the way of the wide spread use of gas are considered to be very great. The British Nation as a whole, having foimd new strength and endurance from the ordeals it has already suffered. Is quite prepared to answer Prime Min ister Winston Churchill’s call to make every home a fortress. In view of the complete con fidence here in Britain’s mili tary, naval, and air preparations to deal with any known form of landing troops, there is some speculation whether the Ger mans have a secret plan. Need for Alertness While there is every reason for confidence in the British morale to withstand invasion, however, and while the possibi lity is discounted of "fifth col umn” activity being anything more than a very Insignificant help to the invaders, there is a growing demand for the issue Meet the man with the “Measuring Stick.” -See-foryoursclf-how“-Ford-stands-head-and— shoulders above the rest in size and roomi* ness this year!

Bombarding American Morale The familiar and miscellaneously used word “propa ganda” has a definite meaning in the radio listening center at Princeton University, where now for some time the propagandist content of oversea messages has been subject to analysis, evaluation and record as a research project. Considered effort to influence public opinion is here seen consecutively, and the present report of Harold N. Graves, Jr., director of the project, not only clarifies a word that needs to be widely understood for just what it means, but finds in the sequence of broadcasts something more than is intended to be conveyed. “Of Germany’s anxiety about America’s possible influ ence on the outcome of the war,” says Mr. Graves, “and of the Reich’s hostile attitude toward the United States there could no longer be any doubt.” Nazi propaganda unwittingly but definitely reveals itself as enemy propa ganda.This was not so evident in the beginning of the year; but the accumulative broadcasts show that the Nazi Gov ernment is now applying to the United States much the same kinds of propaganda first used extensively aerainst England and that Nazi propagandist are now devoting al most as much time to the United States. Taken altogether, the basic intention of Nazi propa ganda, as the Princeton research analyzes it, is to incite racial, national, and economic antagonisms, weaken re spect for democratic government, inculcate indifference to the plight of other democracies, encourage aloofness, and inspire fear of consequences if such aloofness is not prac ticed. To be sure, the intention looks no more like that in the woi'ld programs on the short waves than does a pro gram on a local station look like the incidental sales mes sage that often goes with and pays for it. — Christian Science Monitor, President Roosevelt signed tabllshment emergency legislation authoriz- district flees Industrial centers ing the Navy to spend $909,000,000. throughout the nation to work to build 400 auxiliary vessels and'with management and labor to to expand shipyard, gun andioffer “on-the-job” training in -amior-productlon-faollltiesr-The President also signed a $313,500,- 000 appropriation bill to finance the Immediate construction of 200 cargo ships.

C.) ENTERPRISE PAGE r Highlights Of The Sunday School Lesson The Sunday School Lesson for I'ebruary 23 is, "Jesus Calls to Prayer.”—Luke xviH. There is a story making the rounds ol a little English girl in a bomb shelter who added to her nightly prayer, "And please, C3od, take good care of Yourself; for If anything happens to You, we’re sunk.” That sentence quaintly ex presses the greatest of all truths about the present world situa tion. As Scripture put it, "Our hope is in the Lord." Driven to the limit of their human re sources, the people of the British Empire and the United States are relying desperately upon some special Providence to as sure victory for the right. As God intervened at Dunkirk by still waters in the channel, and long ago scattered the Span ish armada by a storm, so some how, somewhere He will make bare His mighty arm in behalf of the defenders of religion of lib erty of justice. If, as we sin cerely believe, we are contend ing on God’s side, for the prin ciples He has made clear as His great objectives for mankind, then it Is impossible that He should fail to come to the help of His followers. This is our faith, and the ground of our progress. The World’s Agonized Prayer Multitudes beyond count are daily crying to God for deliver ance in and from this war. My own correspondence is an index of this prevailing mood. We may not be able to match Hitler’s mechanisms of death, or his diabolical designs, but we may with confidence lay hold of the Power which he has flouted and despised. “God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble.” In an agony of need and desire, and with full con fession of our sins and unworthi ness, the Christian world is turn ing in prayer to the Heavenly К let us show you The Most BHutiful Rofríeoratar Father who has so often in the past proved Himself the deliverer of His people. This Is a time when spécial gatherings for united prayer should be established every where — civic prayer meetings; cottage prayer meetings; spe cial and regular prayer meetings in the churches. The promi^e of answered prayer when sup pliants are united in Chrisis name, stlU holds good. All sorts of public leaders - even the physical scientists—are proclaiming that there must be a spiritual change in the world to make possible the new orcer sought. That change can come only by the prayer-route. So the day’s summons, and instruction, is, “To your knees, patriots! To your knees!” “Pray wltnoiit ceasing.” Know that your pray ers are shared by the prayers of Pastor Neimoeller and all his fellow clergymen in German concentration camps; by the homeless, hungry refugees; by the families of the soldiers, and by all the hosts of peace-loving freedom-seeking people in the world. A great issue has been dramatically joined all around the globe; the event is witii Goa, who stands committed to H:s people. His own honor is in volved. A Little Love Story Persistent, preserving prayer prevails: that Is the message of Christ’s story of the impor tunate widow. He capped the recital with heartening, stirring words which are a distinct mes sage for today: “Shall not God avenge His elect, that cry 11 Him day and night?” One basic rule of prayer is lo remember that God is on His throne, as well as that v/e are on our knees. He wisely does not answer all our prayers in oiu- Wins Wings Award For enlightening the Amer ican public on national de fense in the air, Constance Moore (left), star of "I Want ed Wings,” receives a wings medal from Mrs. Ogilvy Dmce, 76, first woman flier in Amer ica.

Were He to do so, that would bo putting man’s judgment about the Divine omnlscicnce. That is why Jesus taught u.i lo condition all our petitions by "Thy will be done.” Many of our desires are short sighted and foolish, and wo do not understand our own real needs. I once knew a young man who was deeply in love with a girl who would have none of him. Dally, in agony of yearn ing, his life as dominated hy his love, and expressed by his pray ers. Meanwhile, a great change was being wrought In his ov'n personality. His character was strengthened and expanded and refined: for there Is'nothlnf^ lU: a pure love to transform a life. After seven years of patijnt praying and skillful wooing he was rewarded, and the girl be came his wife. But‘ if'was” » better man she married than the impulsive youngster who had first sought here; and the hap py home life which they have since enjoyed is an answer to that young man’s prayers be yond all his early imagining.?. Two Men at Prayer In our lesson text Jesus told the familiar parable of two kinds of prayer: that of the Pharisee and that of the publican. The Pharl^e’s" pfayer rwalls the old story of the preacher “who made the most eloquent prayer ever addressed to a Boston audience.” Phraseology does not constitute prayer. The Pharisee was merely posing and boasting and advertising himself. His egotism left no room for the Divine mercy.

MOCKSVILLE TO DEFEND TITLES FARMINGTCN. — MocksvUIe’s boys and girls basketball teams will be defending their champ ionship laurels, which they won last year when the County Tour nament gets under way at Farm ington Friday night of this week. The M)ocksville girls’ team is fairly well set to repeat again this year. The boys have lost one game within the County this season, and that one was to Ad vance. Mocksville, however, meets Cooleemee in their first game in the Tournament and must get by them before they have a chance at Advance. Like wise, Advance-must win from Farmington, who is' always a tough foe for them, before they get a shot at the fináis. All in all, it looks as though there will be some bitterly fought games before play ceases Monday night. It Is rather hard to make any predictions concerning the mid get games. The players are young and inexperienced and are not consistent in their play. However, according to the games played to date there is every indication that the midget games will be lust as hard fought and exciting as the varsity games. The tourney gets undei- way at 6:00 p. m. Friday, Saturday and Monday nights, with four games each night. The basket ball fans of the county are cor dially invited to attend each night’s play.

PRESS ASSOCIATION Cooleemee Lunch Room Elsewhere in this paper is a story about the work that has been done by the lunch.room at the Cooleemee school. The school served 15,410 lunches through Feb. 7, of which 5,735 were free. For 5 cents a child can get a bowl of hot vegetable i.oup, crackers and fruit or cookies. For a dime a vegetable plate is sei-ved with hot bread and fruit or cookies. We older ones can recall when we did not get some thing to eat at school during the day unless it was brought from home. The idea of getting hot food at school had not been born, even though the growing tummy called for it then as now. A hungry boy or girl is not going to do any studying, no matter what the teacher says or does. An undernourished child of course cannot make normal school progress. We notice three things particularly about the Coolee mee lunch room; that it meets all state requirements of sanitation: that it pays its way; that one third of the lunches are free. These facts mean that the Cooleemee women in the P.-T.A. and the manager, Mrs, Bahnson, have found a way to take care of their own. It is a service of which they and the entire county should be proud. Enough Bread With the stressing of industry to speed up its output the trend seems to be for PUSH in manufacture. However, agriculture speaks for itself in the program for defense and says it has tho situation well in hand. During the period of the World War many a farmer can recall the lieavy program for extra plowing and growing. This year there w;i| contimin pyist-thg rcntricted- crop plan of the government. But we are told there will be no need to worry of a food shortage in case of war. Our farmers can produce crops and livestock as favorable as any farmers any place in the world. From our abundance of past crops we can rest assured we will suffer no shortage. Don’t forget that through the loss of foreign markets we have an added over-production here. Tlie government feels that since we have these heavy reserves we must not in crease production. The farmer’s worry is whether due to the heavy demand upon the government money for the increased defense program, that the aid to the 'farmer will be greatly reduced. There is the feeling that by the increased employnieiil because of the defense work, there will be a demand for more and higher priced commodities. This would hold true with such as vegetables, dairy pro ducts, fruits, meats and poultry and not with corn, wheat, rice, tobacco and cotton, all of which have their prices set more by world conditions. So far the news for local bread baskets is encouraging. P.-T.A. Favors Twelfth Grade ___FARMINQTXXti.__■^-ThP-.-Wo^ man’s Society of Christian Serv icc met at the home, of Mrs. Ralph .Tamos.

New employee shows his social security account num ber card to his employer so that employer will be sure to get the number and name exactly as they are on the card. Many workers are now changing jobs or taking their first jobs as a result of the national defense program. Most of these jobs are covered by old-age and survivors insurance under the Social Security Act. James N. Freeman, manager of the Winston-Salem Social Security Board office at 433-435 Nlssen Building, has prepared a series of eight brief articles for The Enterprise explaining the steps each worker should now take in connection with his social security account to avoid delays or difficulties when he or his family are ready to collect insurance benefits. Any worker who does not have a social security account number card can obtain one at the Social Security Board office. SOCIAL SECURITY CARD MUST BE ACCURATE TO INSURE PAY AFTER 65 Every worker who has deductions made from his wages for old-age and survivors insurance under the Social Security Act should see to It that each employer he works for has a record of’his nnme and his social socuritv account number lust as they Flight I.icuten.iiit Jean Paul Desloges is shown with the Most Courageous Athlete Award of tlie Philadelphia sporting writers’ association.

HIGH WIND A lilgh wind in Davie Mon day night did some damage. A portion of the roof of C. R. Plow man in Mocksville was blown off, trees in the yards of E. C. Morris and J. F. Hanes were amatred and a strip was torn from the roof of the .shop of Lonnie L. Miller. The wind kept many folks awake during tho night. • A JOKE A DAY A burglar, wiio had entered a poor minister’s house at mid- Mrs. Louia Hendrix is on theinight, was disturbed by the a- sick list; ¡wakening of the occupant of the are shown on his account number card. That is the first step he must lake to make ccrtain that the Social Security Board has a full record of his wages earned in employment covered by this insurance "system. ’I’ho Board keoj)s a record’of his wages In order to determine the amount of his monthly retirement bene fits after age 65. or his family’s benefits in case of his death. Therefore, it is important that every day’s pay bo credited to his .social security account. Each worker’s account has a number—the same number that is on the account number card Issued to him by the Social Security Board. The employer reports tho worker’s wages to the Social Security Board using the name and number the worker gives him. If those are not exactly as shown .on the worker’s account number card, the Social Security Board cannot credit his wages to his account until the error can be corrected. Tho best plan for the worker to follow Is to show his account card to each employer ho works for so that his name and account number will be taken down just as they are on the card. Each worker can properly have only one .social security ac count number. Any worker who has received more than one account number should get in touch with his Social Security Board office and find out if all his past wages have been re corded in one account. Ho should also find out which number W he should use in the futm'c. A worker whose account number " OiU'd i.s“lT^st or w(.)rn luitThliDukl get (I iiuw rifrd' (with the SUmO number' at his Social Security Board office. There Is no charge for duplicate cards.

I Nations may clash and clviU- zatlon may rock on its founda tions, but nevertheless Indivi dual life must go on, ever con fronting the timeless problems of personal character and con duct. AU of us have to keep on learning how to live the best possible life. Whatever the day’s headlines, the duty of being our best selves and doing our best work abides. Teacher Who Saw Straight We do well to note carefully the significant fact that Jesus who ever bore on his heart the vastest concerns, paid great and constant attention to the quali- les which make up the good life. He never fell into the common pitfall of philosophers, which Is indulgence in generalities. His teachings were meant to be prac ticed. It was always the life of individuals that engrossed Him. He saw straight into the heart of life’s problems, which is what ^rt of persons make up the world. And his 'words are as applicable today as when they fell hot from His gentle lips upon the crowds who surrounded Him. This Teacher had the supreme art of being interesting. Dull teachers and preachers get no sanction from His example. Oftenest using the story form of presentation, Jesus also gave His direct address the wings of vivid figures. This wc see in the three admonitions which make up the present lesson: His teach ings upon personal Influsnoe. upon forgiveness and upon grati tude. Hot Words For Debauchers As if He were speaking from amidst the conditions of our own day, Jesus thundered forth con demnation of the debauchers nf youth. We can picture Him as standing before a display of mod ern magazines, designed to al lure child minds by their filth and falsehoods, and crying, with accusing finger pointed at pub lisher and seller, “It were well for you that a millstone were hanged around your neck, and you were thrown into the sea, rather than you should cause one of these little ones to stum ble.” Mayor LaGuardla of New York, and many like-minded good citi zens, are at present engaged In a "drive” against evil literature. Even the militant mayor has not matched the Master in the sever ity of the punishment proposed. He prescribes jail for offenders; Jesus suggests the bottom of the sea, with a millstone around the criminal’s neck. Forgive and Forget That forgiveness has a primary place In every life is made clear by the second portion of our lesson text. Everybody has need to forgive—and to be forgiven —and to be forgiven—every day. The boaster who cries “I never forgive and I never forget” is stupid, as well as sinful. In the heart of the Lord’s Prayer is em bedded the petition for forgive ness, which is there made con tingent upon willingness to for give. to our lesson, Jesus makes clear that forgiveness is not to be a matter of calculation, but to bo continued up to the per fect figure of seven times. In His colloquy with Peter, who ask ed if he had to forgive his brother seven times, Jesus said. Seven times? I say seventy times seven” —that is, indefinitely. What family quarrels and feud.s would be prevented could men but .see with Christ’s eyes the, profound place that forgiveness holds In the art of living. Was it not for the forgiveness of sin that Jesus died? "Where Are the Nine?” Third of the virtues that mesh Into everyday life, wliich Jesus Worth Potts Has Influenza CORNATZER. — Mrs. T. M.

An in cident evoked tlie lesson. On His way to Jerusalem, the Great Physician healed ten lepers. Only one came to express gratitude and he was a Samaritan. “Where are the nine?” asked the Master, That sa!me question is bftan on the Ups of every public ser vant. For once out of ten times is rather, a high average for re turning thanks. Every day every one ot us is the recipient of attentions that merit a “Thank you,” seldom giv en. Even the once-required “bredd and butter” letters from guests have passed out of fash ion. What Paul called the grace of gratitude is an Indispensible quality in Christian character.

A bill designed to remove all legal barriers delaying the con struction of High Point’s pro posed $6,500,000.00 hydro-elec tric plant on the Yadkin River, will soon be presented to the North Carolina Legislature, It has been announced by High Point officials. The city's power commission Monday requested Guilford coun ty's delegation in the General A.ssembly to attempt to secure legislation that would clearlfy the powers of the city and the commission, but would confer no new powers upon them. In its recent ruling the North Carolina supreme court held that the legislature had not conferred upon the city or the commis sion the powers necessary for proceeding with the hydroelec tric project, contending that certain legislation already on the statute books did not Intend to convey the necessary powers. Board members said that the new legislation is designed to meet the objections raised by tlie court and to clarify the in tention of the legislature to such an extent tliat it was believed, if the new legislation should pass and be sent to the supreme court for review, the high tribunal would hold In the power com mission’s favor. Objection Eliminated E. L. Biggs, chairman of the city’s power board, pointed out that there had been considerable objection here earlier to the pro ject on the grounds that the bonds might be subject to re tirement by payments from tax funds and that construction of the project would force indus trial users of electric current to purchase from the city whether or not they desired to do .so. -The-ilrst-of-theseobjcctlons,” Briggs declared, “iias been elim inated by repeated holdings of the supreme court that the bonds would be revenue bonds, payable solely from the revenues of the power project and that they would not represent a debt of the city and that under no circumstances could tax monies be used to retire them, now or In the future. "The second of these objec tions,” he added, “has been elim inated by a federal court ruling that the Duke Power Company holds a valid franchise for the disposition of industrial electric power in High Point and that the franchise will remain in effect until 1969.” The chairman point ed out that if the city were al lowed to proceed with its pians. Industrial users of electric power would be able to purchase elec tricity on a competitive basis, either from the Duke Power Company or the city. Concisely, the proposed legis lation would authorl7c the city, through the power commission, to do the following things; Construct a power plant, ac quiring all lands or rights in lands necessary, the plant to in clude a dam, storage reservoir and generating plant on the Yadkin River, a substation at the generating plant and another In the city, transmission nnri_ril.s.>.

PRESS ASSOCIATION FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 28, 1941 " T H E W H IT E C LIF F S ’ Senator Reynolds and Aid To Britain Senator Reynolds says that he is going to vote against the lend-lease bill. What puzzles most folks hereabouts is the reason. The Senator voted to report the bill favor ably from the Senate foreign relations committee and also voted for a two-ocean navy. Any Senator of course has a right to change his mind. Senator Bailey did and stated why. Senator Reynolds said his reason was that he thought the bill would get us into war. Tlie majority of the people in this state apparently do not agree. A few days ago a friend said he was opposed to the bill; that the last war left him only with a broken body and that this country paid England’s bill. Those of us that were in the last war realized only too clearly that “saving the world for democracy” turned out to bitter empty phrase. At the same time we realize that the job was not com pleted and no foundation was laid for a just peace. France, who is now paying more per day to live in s avery than she would if fighting, realizes it too. So does England who today is a noble sufferer in her atonement. If my friend lived today in Germany and criticised the government he would face the Gestapo-and those who would realize the horrors of their torture chamber need only to read the testimony of one who did: Jan Valtin, a Communist who tells his story in a book just published. “Out of the Night.” Only this week Hitler said that any country that trades with Germany will do so at an economic advantage to Germany. That does not mean a simple transaction between Individuals but producing and selling only what Germany says and then making the trade with a govern ment that carries all of the considerations of power' politics.It might be added in passing that Hitler has also said that he would sink any convoys carrying arms to Britain and that in March and April he would release a “new type” of submarine. In the last war two submarines reached our shores and a bomber has already been built by this country that can fly the ocean both ways carrying 36,000 tons of explosives. We recognize that any course this country takes involves a risk. At the same time we recognize that might is right insofar is Hitler is concerned. The German youth has been taught race arrogance and international hatred. If we are not willing to protect our way of life and teach our youth that liberty is sometimes dearer than life, we might as well appease Hitler and make the best bargain we can from time to time. Virginio Gayda, Mussolini’s mouthpiece, agrees with Senator Reynolds that the lend-lease bill may lead to war. What would a country like Greece, China, Impover ished Spain, Finland who set an example of modern demo cracy and progress, Czechoslovakia, Poland, the Low coun tries or the Balkan states that are caught between the devil and the deep blue sea say about that? In seeking an explanation for Senator Rej'nolds’ state ment that he will vote against the bill some editorial writ ers have offered the suggestion that he is thinking of 1944 when he comes up for re-election. Perhaps at that time, it Is said, the war will be over and a tired, bleeding world will be struggling with a dcpresoion, the Labor party in England and maybe this country In the saddle. Then, they say, the Senator can say: “I warned you.”We only know that we are living In a far different world than that of 25 years ago. Bom of violence, seeking to crush the individual rights and normal peaceful desires of the common man, an evil minority desire- to rule the v.'orlc'. We ave not. interested in saving England or the world for democracy, but in saving ourselves. Is not the simple choice that of individual freedom or slavery with Hitler? _ 'The debate on the lend-lease bill has served to clear the atmosphere. National unity must prevail If we ac complish the task to which our hand has been set. It’s a man-sized job tliat will require “guns instead of butter” with what sacrifice we yet know not. We do not agree with the viewpoint of Senator Rey- —noUls.----------- Will Peace Bring Socialism To Britain?

Officer: Bigotry, yer honor. He’s got three wives. Judge: I’m surprised at your ignorance, officer. That’s trlgl- nometry, not bigotry. After Wendell Wlllkie had finished an entire afternoon's conversation with Britain’s foremost labor leader, who is today Winston Churchill’s most influential wartime aid and who In peacetime tomorrow may be his successor, it is likely that he summed up his own reaction about like this: “If this man Bevin Is a Socialist, then I'm a Communist. Now, Mr. WlUkle’s estimate of the personnel and purposes of British labor leadership is Important at this particular time because there are not a few Influential persons who are saying that what England Is going to be in the future Is a big factor in whether the United States should help England now. “If Britain is going to fall into the hands of the Socialists anyway after the war, why should America help stave off the Nazis. One is as bad as the other.” In testimony on the lend-lease bill, in House and Senate debate. In recurring newspaper columns, In frequent Washing ton discussion this view often crops up and it is, therefore, pertin ent to look at the best information available as to whether the assumption is correct, let alone the conclusion. Winkle’s Friends Hear Views Mr. Wlllkie volunteered no statement on this point when he appeared before the Senate Committee on Foreign Rela tions and unfortunately no one interrogated him. But many of his friends In Washington have in informal conversation ex changed views with him on the future Britain, and the judg ments which he reached after the most recent, first-hand study substantially fills in the picture available from other sources. What, then, will be England after the war—if American aid, in the words of Senator Tom Connally Feb. 19, is more than a wave of the iiandkerchief? The following answer is not offered as compassing Mr. Winkle’s own views but it can be fairly said that it is an answer which he would very likely share and to which he would not likely take exception. It is an answer drawn from first-hand sources and from those who would not be cod dling Socialism as $ pretty little experiment, 1. Tho social order after the war will be going forward in England, as in the United States, toward the end of a larger sharing of the fruits of production. 2. There will be an Increase in the field of social legislation designed to achieve that objective. 3. The educational system will be increasingly democratized. 4. The old social order of “dukes and duchesses” will dis appear. 5. The British people as a whole, British labor leadership specifically, support the principle of private enterprise and have no intention of abandoning the private enterprise system. 6. There r.eccssarlly will be vast new public projects inclucling much-needed Government-sponsored housing work and control or ownership of monopolistic industries, but there is no visible pros- pcct that any party In Britain desires to see the Government take over the Instruments of production, 7. England’s world of tomorrow, as Mr. Wlllkie himself might express it. Is in line with his liope for America’s world of to morrow wherein the yeast of private enterprise is free to work and expand and yield its benefits to the greatest number. There will be Government regulation to control private enterprise but not Government power to destroy it. 8. Socialism may be the war aim of Prof. Harold Laski, a writer much publicized in the American press, and a few extremists in Britain. It is not the war aim of British labor or the British people. Freedom for themselves and others is Britain’s whole war aim and British labor is fighting for the freedom of German laboring people as much, as for themselves, Britain Guards Its Finances 9. Socialization- comes to any people when they lose control of their nation’s finances. Britain is doing a magnificent job with its wartime budget. Despite the strain of mounting military expenditures, the British Government is not yielding to easy, loose fiscal methods, is keeping its finances on a sound pay-a-lot- as-you-go basis and all parties approve this policy. It would most likely be Mr. Willkle’s judgment that Britain has iJcen doing a better job with its budget in war than the New Deal has in peace Gannon Talbert Able To Be Out ADVANCE. — Rev. and Mr.s.

Answer: Turn under the win ter legume crop whcn-lt reaches :i height of 12 Inches, or any time thereafter until It is In bloom, says E. C. Blalr, Exten sion agronomist of N. C. State College. Before plowing it in, cut It up fine with a disc harrow. Turn the furrow slice on edge rather than all the way over. Always wait two weeks before planting another crop; other wise, fermentation of the legume may cause a poor stand. Win ter legumes may be turned under in time to plant corn, peanuts, soybeans, cowpeas, millet, sor ghums, and sometimes cotton. Corn will under average condi tions yield 20 to 25 bushels extra per acre on account of the leg ume.

LONDON. — Recent discussion in the United States again has brought up the question of the possibility of a negotiated peace. This sort of talk was serious at the start of the war, when form er Prlmt Minister David Lloyd George was its most ardent pro tagonist. Little has been heard of the question for the last nine month.s, virtually nothing since the Ger man invasion of Prance. True, there are small but very vocal bodies throughout the country- some of the Fascist or Com munist Inspired—that plug away at the Idea that the war should end as soon as possible and Great Britain should make some peace offer to Germany. But apparently at the moment they carry no weight. Not only will the Cabinet and Foreign Office not consider the possibility—indeed, they some times wake up at night shudder ing at the notion—but behind them lies the great overwhelm ing mass ot the British people, who have now got their teeth into the job and do not intend to take them out. Those teeth locked home in the dark days of June and July. Then, if at any time, one might have ex pected a peace offensive to at tain success. The people here did not admit in what serious case they were. The army, just back from Dun kerque, was disorganized. ’The Air Force was putting up an ex traordinary battle but against extraordinary odds, and tired, red-eyed young fighter pilots came very near the end of their tether. The army’s supplies of rifles, guns and tanks were real ly appalling. It is no exaggera tion to say that Britain lay vir tually helpless. Better Prepared Now In those days no one could forsesee future successes in the Mediterranean or the failure of the Germans to invade before the British could complete pre parations for them. Not that the British are satisfied with their preparations now. But they are infinitely better than they . JteríLe.venJastSeptember-^Equal- ly, nobody could foresee that United States public opinion would veer as much toward Brit ain as it has done. Nevertheless, even In those grim days in early Summer, all German peace offensives fell completely flat. “Very Well Then, Alone” read the caption of one of Low’s cartoons and that was the feeling ol the British people, government and above all, a new government aril above ail, a new Prime Minister. We will defend our Island whatever the cost may be,” said Winston Churchill in those dread times. We will fight on the beaches: we will light on the landing grounds, in the fields, on the streets and In the hills. "We will never surrender, and •even If, whitilT British view, would be tanta- I do noc tor a moment believe, this Island or a large part of it were subjugated and starving, then our empire beyong the seas, armed and guarded by the British Fleet, will carry on the struggle until in God’s good time the New World, with all Its power and might, sets forth for the liber ation and rescue of the Old.” Reason to Hope Tliose words are worth remem bering, because the Prime Minis ter was speaking not only lor himself but for the average Brit on. If the British felt that way then, how much more do they feel so now when things are looking better and even the cautious Mr. Churchill gives them reason to hope. That feeling applies as much to a negotiated peace — which means a peace which both sides agree they cannot win and therefore they might as well stop fighting — as It applies to a peace by surrender. For a negotiated peace. In the mount to a German victory. The German idea, of course, is that the Reich should dominate Eu rope and Britain have sole pos session of her empire. Such ideas naturally are attractive to people here who are fed up with war, even more fed up with the Con tinent and all its warrlngs. But for the moment it is not practical, Mr. Churchill is re luctant to allow any settlement of war aims, though such a statement already is drawn up. The reason is that Mr. Church ill, with his sure hold on the British pulse, realizes that there is only one war aim, and that ;s to beat Germans. Armed Truce Feared To beat them by a short head to last just a little bit longer than they do and end wltli peace just eked out at the last mo ment is not good enough from the British point of view, because such a victory would only mean repetition of the situation Miat existed between two great wars, There would be only an armed truce. Prom this point on, the varl ous motives why Britain will not stand for a negotiated peace merge into each other. It would be hard, for instance, to imagine Germany agreeing to any peace that did not recognize most, if not all, German conquests in Europe. But Britain is pledged to any number of hardy me.’i and women from conquered ter ritory, who got away before their countries collapsed and are con tinuing the Sight ISrom hero. Poles arc helping to guard Eng land; Polish fliers are some of the best and most daring in the British air forces. Britain is equally pledged to Norwegians, Netherlanders, even Czecho slovaks. General Charles de Gaulle's ‘'Free Frenchmen" have a British promise of aid to re store their country. The Greeks are on the same side, and it may not be long before Turkey is with Britain, too. This reason merges into an other. The British Army, the British Navy, the British Air Force still think themselves at least-the peeirlfTiof the ma.ster of any German. Should Brit ish politicians reach a negotiated peace without ever allowing a fair fight under something like equal conditions with the Ger mans, the services would resent it forever. Again, this has not been a war where fighting man faces fight ing man and each has a certain respect for the other. It is a war, at least on the British side, ni which old buildings, women, children and little people’s homes have been the chief victims. It only takes a relatively short drive around London to make one realize that British people will have to suffer a harder, more trying time than they have yet suffered before they will forgive the Germans some of their bomb damage.

Every time a Mem ber of Parliament or a newspaper presumed to criticize the Ger man regime there would probably be a formal complaint backed perhaps by threats of military or economic reprisals. Even with the United States, the Germans made formal complaint about some of Mayor Fiorella La Guardia’s speeches and still did not understand the State De partment’s reply that the United States was a free country. With a peace negotiated between equals, the British fear that to placate the Germans it would be necessary to whittle away their own civil liberties one by one. For in the last analysis, the British say, how can you nego tiate a peace as between °quals Whatever Your...

March 2 is, "The Authority of Christ.”—Luke xix, 1; x.\, 8. wEvery day, in print and over OTe air, the world Is being told that spiritual pruparedness is our primary need. Just what spirit ual preparedness Is these wise men seldom say. We are under a thick cloud of aeneralizatlons. Whereas, the simple, clear, strong word that will save us is that our deliverance can come only by yieldinB to Jesus Christ His crown rights. Once we sur render completely to the auth ority of Christ, our path be comes plain. As individuals, as communities, as nations, if we determine to do only what Christ would have us do, all our fears and doubts and wavering will be dissolved. I— If-we- accept-as our-supreme and only law, the will of God as revealed by Jesus, we shall have true .spiritual preparedness; and only then. When Christ Was Voted King Once upon a time the people of Florence elected Jesus Christ to be their king. What Florence did by law, we should be doing in spirit. The acknowledged reign of Christ would solve all our problems. His passion for jfrfjtice and righteousness, with jftnlshnient for the wicked; His Insistence upon the law of bro- therllness and good will; His code COLORED NEWS Awaiting Лс Stork? drconduct for individuals; His spirit of all-prevailing love; His exaltation of the will of God for man—these are a definite pro gram for living. They belong in the everydayness of things. We are hearing much talk of “a new way of life.” forgetting that Christianity was called “the Way” before It ever got more imposing designations. The Way of Christ is not ob scure. This book or Luke, and the whole New Testament, make It clear. Naturally, before there can be an intelligent acceptance of the kingship of Christ there must be a reverent reading of the New Testament. Anyone who sets himself assiduously to seeking to know God’s will, and will h9n- estly practice as much as he leatHs^\4H-i4Hd-hlmseif-ttlumi^=+are-hT— spirHTial— preparediiess: nated by the Spirit and power of What a terrible train of con- Moving by Momentum Lives are visably changed by this acceptance of IJhe Jesus Way — lives of black jungle folk, and lives of New York million aires. Whole nations take on a new character when the majority of their people are seeking to do first of all the wonderful will of God. In simpler days of democracy, this characterization applied more generally. Dr. J. Gresham Machen once said, “America to day Is running on the moment um of her godly ancestry. When that momentum ceases. God help America!” It was me nof God who signed the Mayflower Com pact. The early history of North America is a record of para mount religious influence. Our life has growi shallower, and ■ more~'cothlilex~as~ we' have departed from these earlier sim plicities ad integrities. We think we have outgrown the Bible, knowledge of which made robust and beautiful characters. Even the less thoughtful of mankind may perceive that something serene and lovely and happy has gone out of our common Ufe in these overcomplicated and over- sophisticated days. Dimly, we un derstand that we lack the per sonal, inner, spiritual peace which is a prerequisite to social and international peace. Now wei must_fiLce_thfi_greaL_ttuth_.that only Christ can give us back what we have lost. The King must be recalled to His throne. A Patriot's Tears Our lesson opens with the rec ord of the greatest Patriot’s tears over the capital of His nation. Jesus wept for Jerusalem. He had tears and love and compas sion for the city that had been blind to its real destiny. He fore saw the inevitable doom that uivaito its disobedience. It had Ignored "the things which be long unto peace.” Therefore a devastation more complete than that which the heathen have visited upon London and Coven try was in store for old Jerusalem. All this was because, “thou knewest not the time of thy visitation.” There had been fail- By MARGARET WOODRUFF Mrs. Chnster Carter returned homo last week from a hospital in Salisbury wiicrc .she has been a paliL'ul.
