 WHAT IS
 NEEDED
 Mir. Phillips says that, besides Arrns, America needs: "A spiritual awakening, and one deep enough to remove the notion that man is doing okay spiritually when he manages to listen to a sermon over he radio once g month
 "A little more respect for the ancient truths, the lessons of his- tory and the Word of God

 "A return to the faith of our fathers, to the teachings of Holy Writ and the impulse in all crises 10 turn to God in humility instead pf to politicians in panic.

 The immediate restoration of he Ten Commandment as a guide living, ard the return of the Bible to top place on all lists of preferred reading"
