Testifying before the House Riv-

July 28, John L. Lewis estimated
that the project would eventually
displace as many as $4,000 work
ers from their jobs, by reducing the
market for coal. What benefits
can we hope for,p he saidi, ''if the
government joins with us ON the
one hand to stabilize the coal in

about to displace coal for the gem
Grafton of electricity and build a
waterway as an inducement to for

not only dire threat to their STAN
dards of living and even their live
lihood, 1t is an invasion of the Am
erican way. This unnecessary and
stupendous expense will not pro-
vide the expected power benefits as
an aid to national lefense. Its
transportation facilities VIII only
make the position of us all more
precarious."
What this country needs is pow
er and transportation now-not
power and transportation that, ia
the case of the, St. Lawrence, will
take four or more years to produce.
The railroads have shown beyond
question that they are capable Of
meeting our abnormal needs. The
electric utilities are starting a tre-
mendous expansion program. The
coal industry has proven itself full
ly aware of the needs OF the time
and is producing at maximum pace.
The St Lawrence project, by dis
rHpting these vital industries, by
throwing men out of work, and by
diverting money and materials
from real defense work. would
handicap, not advance, the defense
drive.
The decision is in the hands Of
Congress. May its members vote
on the basis Of the facts of the
case-not on the basis of good
politics"

THE FUTURES UP no Us


"The future can be anything you
want it to be, the world can be
anything you want it to be, If We
all want it to be something and
work for it.
In these words, Charles f. Ket-
tering, vice-president of General
Motors in charge of research. re-
Gently summed up the opportun-
ities ahead in America at the four
teenth annual commencement ex-
efeises of the General Motors In
stitute in Flint, Michigan.
Mr.. Kettering told the 406 gradu-
ates Of the Institute, who wild
Immediately take their places in
industry, that people succeed and
are happy to the extent that they
are able to adjust themselves to their
environment. and then look. to the
future. Mr.. Kettering's remarks
concerning the future are very much
worthy of repetition:
II am trying to get new study
in our schools that means exactly
the opposite Of history, and that is
the study of the future. Because
that is where you are going to
spend the rest of your lives; you
are not going to live in the past.
There are eight hours in the
day that they call recreation. That
is the time you want to work on
that physical, mental and spiritual
that you have. Clean
up your background, get rid OF
that grouchy disposition and
learn how to get along with the
fellow next door to you, because
you are going to have to live with
people from now on.
"Of course great many people
are perturbed these days because
they don't know what is going to
happen Well, neither do 1. / am
perfectly willing to do anything
can to help the situation, but l am
not going to worry myself sick
about things can't do anything
about. You had better save your
snergy for things you can do some
hing about.
''If you have a job that doesn't |
roost ON the foot Of your bed every |
night, it is no good. You have to |
i've a job. You can't work job
eight hours a day and then be
else"

RADIANT LIviNG
THE CHANNEL OF POWER
~ REV. c. n. GRFFRTH
Pastor Mefhseisi Church. ceeilt0n, Nd.

Nearly everyone recognizes to-
day the value of right thinking. But
very few practice 1t.
1t is Just as important to think
right as it is to multiply correct
ly. - ~
But right thinking. however, in
wolves spiritual thinking.
sAny thinking that neglects,
omits, or excludes the considera-
tion Of Gods truth and it's appli-
cation to ones life, or ones rela-
tionship to God, is erroneous
thinking and can never bring one
to the solution of his problem.
This is why the greatest of all
teachers directed us to seek first
the kingdom of God and His right
eousness.
The more spiritual is your
thinking, the larger and the clear
er is the channel through which
the divine blessings and the hea-
venly aids will flow into your life.
In the first place spiritual think
ing will safeguard you from max
ing the many mistakes and falling
into the many miseries which are
experienced by those who try to
live Independently Of God
Spiritual thinking will daily
bless you because it continually
brings your mind into harmony
with the, Divine Mind. 1t erects
something of a Jacobs Ladder
down which come the angels of
God to bring. to you the messages
by which God seeks to direct your
life toward success and happiness.
Like turning the dial of your
radio to get the program you
want, spiritual thinking tunes
your mind to receive from the di-
vine mind clearer comprehension
of that truth which blesses your
life. t
Spiritual thinking is the chan
mel of that power that will make
your life radiant.

GOVERNMENT ECONOMIES
ARE BADLY NEEDED

A. joint committee of members
of the Senate and House tax COM
mittees will explore "non-defense
economy" and try TO cut out be-
tween one and two billion dollars
from the federal budget. 1t is a
grand idea in behalf of economy
But does anyone know a reason
why the government should not
seek defense economy?"
There is a sort of hysteria in
government circles that ignores
the costs of defense, whether It is
for America, or aid to England
and company. q 4
, Steep increases in wages in all
Industrial and manufacturing in
stitutions have been made. Farm
prices have increased, in some in
stances. At the same time prices
have risen for food, clothing, rent,
and all necessities of life. Wash
ington hasn't woke up to realize
that terrific spending is being
being matched up with terrific tax
es, that is being extended to the
lowest incomes, and increased
heavily on larger earnings.
Calvin Coolidge was the only
president in the twentieth century
to insist on government economy.
