SERIOUS UNDERTAKING

AS the new year opens, 'statisti-
clans, experts n d housewives
agree OH one fact. The cost of liv-
ing is rising ominously. Cries for
imitation controls grow louder.
The easy" way of paying for war
by painless borrowing is beginning
to hurt. The best possible infia-
tion control is taxation. This con-
troll has not been applied effect
lively.
An additional initiation control is
direct sale of war bonds to the peo-
pie. The banks should receive
much of the credit for successfully
putting tens of billions of dollars
worth of these bonds into the hands
of the public. Their efforts have
helped immeasurably to stem the
trend toward forced savings and
resultant restrictions which the
Treasury has been reluctant to inn
pose. The Treasury hopes to raise
the present figure of 20 million
workers now investing an average
of so of their pay in savings
bonds. to a figure of at least 80
million workers setting aside an
average of at least 1919 of their
earnings every pay day. This
means. in the words of a spokes-
man for the National City Bank of
New York. that: "The banker. by
virtue of his position in the COM
munity. has a special responsibility
for taking off his coat and getting
down to work to make the finan-
cling a success"

the meeting and passed on to mem
bers by the persons who attend.
1T is becoming more and more
evident as time goes on that if the
war is lost it will not be lost on
the battle front, but on the farm
front. The food shortage is becom-
ing critical. Unless the farmer is
given sufficient labor and machin-
cry, his production in 1943 will be
less. rather than more, than that
of 1912. However, the farmer is a
patriot, and he will do everything
possible to produce the tremendous
quantities of food necessary for this
nations armed forces and civilian
population and also for Lend
Lease"

By HOY L. TAWEs

THE ROAD TO COURAGE. by
Henry Wyman Holmes. KnOpf, New
York. $2.5O.-My copy of this book
has its margins well filled with
notes, and many key sentences are
underscored. There is so much
good thought in it that the re-
viewer does not care to point out d
few apparent contradictions. The
author has a militant faith in dem
ocracy although he is aware of its
shortcomings. He is lover of free
dom and not without knowledge of
it's restrictions. He is a strong
ally of the common people, but
gives proper emphasis to their So
cial responsibilities. He has found
a grand courage in creative living.
He challenges others to have a
courage in peace that will match
the courage expressed in wartime.
The author argues effectively his
viewpoint. and his chapters furnish
mental exercise for the reader.
He is plain in what he believes
about the glObal conflict, but as
plain in his meanings of the great
sacrifice. All through his book
there is the sense of heavy Obliga-
ton to those who fight and die for
us. and the hearts desire for a bet
ter world. His chapters on Happi-
ness and Education seem to be the
outstanding ones.
I'VE have to do the best we can,
not giving up the hope of underz
standing, but denying once for all
the final formula. from whatever
source, which leaves us hopeless,
lulls our consciences to sleep. or
tells us that heroic sacrifice is only
accidental or only fated. and re-
quires no answering courage in our
lives. If science or religion makes
us fatalists. it cheats us. If his
tory takes the meaning out of life,
making it seem a struggle among
animals for mastery. as Hitler
teaches. we can honestly reply that
history is open to Interpretation
otherwise and can be largely what
we make it, and today we can as
sert with better reason than we
ever could that history may become
world history. and the federation of
mankind an actual possibility"

RADIANT LIVING
THE TNFAILING SOURCE
BY REV. {. M. GRIFFETH
Pastor Methodist Church, CeeiltOn, Md.

Sometimes when reading, you
come across a sentence which rings
a bell in your mind.
l came across such a one a few
days ago. The author was relating
how, when in trouble. he turned to
God. Said he: Il asked help from
a source that knows no failure"
What impressed me was the
phrase: "a source that knows no
failure" Do you not feel how fit
tingly that describes our Heavenly
Fathers ability to care for those
who trust in Him?
Jesus was constantly trying to
impress upon the people who lis
tened to HHim the truth that the
abounding supply of Gods provi-
sion for us is ineXhaustible.
Do you not recall how the Great
Teacher drew the attention of the
people to the birds which were
flying so happily about? And how
even the grass upon which they
were sitting seemed to be joyously
smiling because of the Fathers
love?
Jesus must have caught such an
impression because He said to the
people: "If God so clothe the grass
of the field shall He not
much more clothe you, o ye of lit
tie faith?"
You can be assured >that what
ever limitations there are upon
getting Gods help. such limitations
are not on what God is able to do
for you. but on what you are able
to believe He can do for you.
In these burdened hearts there
can be nothing more precious for
you to know than that you too can
draw upon that Source which
knows no failure.
Whatever trouble you may be in.
do not permit unbelief to silence
your prayers, but dare to believe
fully the promise of Jesus; ASK
and il, shall be given you; seek and
ye shall find; knock and it shall be
opened unto you"

Dangers From Heart
Disease Are Listed
tcontInued from FIrst Pagel

if they are careful and adjust
themselves to their physical limi-
tatiOns.
The thyroid type of heart dis
ease usually develops slowly and
offers much greater promise in
both the preventive and curative
fields With care, disability may be
prevented and economic self-sup-
port maintained.
Syphilitic heart disease, is an
aftermath of syphilis and may de-
velop at any time from 5 to 80
years after the first evidence OF
syphilis appears. 1t is especially
prevalent among strong, physical
ly active men.
The rheumatic form of heart dis
ease is produced by rheumatic fe-
yer and chorea. 1t appears to run
in families" as it is more prevail
ent in certain families than in
others and those in the younger
age group appear to be more sus-
ceptible to it than their elders.
Degenerative heart disease is
due to the wearing-Out process to
which all human organs are sub
ject. Heredity is believed to play
an important part in its prevail
ence but it is known to be found
most often among elderly people
who are overweight. The burden
of carrying Is or 90 extra pounds
after 40 years tells upon the blood
pumping system. Such conditions
as diabetes, lead poisoning and
gout are also believed to play
part in the degenerative type of
heart disease.
The human heart weighs about
three-fOurthS of pound and is
made up largely of muscle. 1t beats
about 100000 times day and can
not stop to take any rest. Even
when a person is quiet the total
blood OF the body passes through
the heart more than 40 times per
hour Under eXertion this rate is
greatly increased.
With the various diseases OF the
heart affecting the valves, the mus
cles or the great vessels. its abil-
ity to do work is lessened. Advanc-
ing age too reduces the ability OF
the heart to respond to eXertion. so
that the elderly person is unable
to do the same amount of physi-
cal work as he did when younger.
1t is. therefore. unwise for the eld-
erly person to take up strenuous
activities to which he is unaccus-
toned.
In 1871 the deaths from heart
disease totaled 96S. divided as fol-
lows among the various age

Sen. Bunting Proposes
"Freeway" For State
fcontlnuea from Frrat rarel


ment so as to eliminate cross traf
fic of vehicles"
The bills sponsors explain that
it would make possible the bypass
ing of a community without var
ious types of stands appearing OF
the road or obstructing the dri-
ver's view.
While not intended as speed
way, the freeway would make pos
sible better time in driving in that
a steady travel would result al
nearly the same speed throughout
eliminating stops and delays exist
ing on regular highways.
Several states have enacted free
way laws and the trunk highway
from Harrisburg to Pittsburgh was
cited as an example of freeway.
The bill provides that while the
department could restrict or pro-
hibit access to a freeway from any
existing highway or street, reason
able access would have to be pro-
vided. The department could reg
ulate, restrict or prohibit the use
of the freeway by various classes
of vehicles if an alternate route is
provided.
1t would be unlawful for anyone
to drive any vehicle into a freeway
from any local service or feeder
roads and from any property abut-
ting a freeway except at points
designated by or through openings
provided for that purpose by the
Penalties for violations of these
provisions would be a fine of from
SIS to 500 or Imprisonment from
five to 80 days or both. Appeals to
the Court of General Sessions
would be allowed on the posting
