Creary preached in the NOM
ing and evening. Both sermons
were stirring. The morning
subject, Il Saw the Lord" The
evening topic, Loyalty in the
Home Brings Loyalty in the
Church." The evening seem IN
was one that win long be re-
membered by those who heard
it. It was very timely and
should bring some reults. Next
Sunday Rev. McCreary will
preach on the subject, "The
Foolishness of Preaching" at
1890 a m. The church school
was held at noon with Mr..
Robert Yancey, superintendent

You Have My Sympathy

America thrilled to the news
of the landing of our fighting
forces in North Africa. Coupled
with the Naval victory in the
Solomons this week, it was the
best news of the war to date.
Prime Minister Churchill, Of
England, summed it up bead
tifully with his "the end Of The
beginning" Main streets re-
action to all this ranged from
guarded optimism to extreme
wishful thinking. 4 few SIDE
walk strategists even ventured
the thought Of the war being
over by Christmas.
The consensus of opinion,
however, was that a full year
had been chopped of the
length of the conflict. Our
President and responsible mil
itary leaders have repeatedly
warned us of a long and bitter
war. All signs point to this and
their plans have been formu
lated with this in view.
In the face Of their warnings
it is dangerous to spread talk
CT g quick victory. For those
unthinking people who raise
false hopes in the hearts Of
mothers with sons in the
armed service, we have no
sympathy, only regret.

Ndzi Menace In Ldtin America Grows;
u. S. Warned Hard Blows Are Needed

Washington, ID. c. ULNS)-It should
by now be clear that the NaZi menace
in Latin America-especially Mexico
grows worse instead of better and that
governmental pledges at international
conferences are not the answer. But
nothing remedial seems to happen.
Evidence in heaps is available to
show that both Gestapo and GPU
agents are busy also that sudden death
continues to be a method of ''liquida-
tiOn" of opponents.
That the United States continues to
ignore the fact that mass movements
could and should be used as means
of beating down the tOtalitarian propa-
ganda is likewise an obvious fact.
TOledanO Still Active
Furthermore, there is the entertain
ing fact that if OCD can be accused of
hiring dancers to fortify our own popu-
latiOn, it seems likewise the case that
Nelson Rockefeller's organization in
some measure adheres to the idea that
American children can be brought to
appreciate Latin America through hear
ing recorded reproductions of the
rhumba.

all against the democracies, with Lom-

their union for help in adjusting

changes are necessary in shifting from
civilian to war work in the same plant,
all such changes should be negotiated
by collective bargaining. We have been

Seeks Mayors Veto
Recent Action BY Council
Brings Protest From
Potters

Local No. 124 has requested Mayor
Greenawalt to veto recent action by
the City Council to ban Sunday roller
skating in the city. 1t is beyond most
of us 10 understand why the movement
was started in the first place, and
surely Council must have had a lapse
into the moth-eaten past to take the
action that they did. No doubt the
whole thing was started by some we'll
meaning person or persons. We do not
doubt their sincerity of purpose, but
we do question their understanding of
youth and its problems.
l haven't any doubt that if the
source were really tracked down it
would be found in some person who
would tell you that when he was a
boy children We're not allowed to rare
around the country on Sunday, but
were made to stay at home and read
the bible. Well, all l can say to that
is. that's when you were boy"
Strange as it may seem, we are living
in world that keeps moving on, and
as it moves it brings many changes in
our mode of life. Today, father and
mother go for Sunday ride or indulge
in Il movie, or go out to do that all
important round of golf, SO we certain
ly can't expect Johnny and Mary to
sit home and twiddle their thumbs.
In this car-radiO-mOvie age it has
been tn task of recreation leaders all
over the nation to stress the import
ance of active rather than passive rec
reation. No intelligent person will
question the value of clean wholesome
recreation as an outlet for the bound
less emotional energy of youth. And
who can say that roller skating is
not clean, wholesome recreation? For
my part I should like to see more of
this type of recreation made available
