Missionaries to the
American Indidn

The Missouri Synod of the Luth-
eran Church, body which is cele-
brating the centennial of its organi-
cation in 1S47, carried on success
full missionary work among the
American Indians. Lutheran friends
of missions in Europe sent over
number of men who established
outposts in the wilds of Michigan
among the Chippewas.
In 1s45 Pastor William Loehe Of
Bavaria undertook a mission project
in a unique way. He sent colonies
of Lutheran Christians who were to
settle among the Indians as group
and demonstrate Christian life to
them. In this way Indian children
were brought into white schools and
contact with Christian commun-
ity.
The missions gave free land to
Indians, hoping thereby to train
them for agricultural pursuits and
more stable life. White boys were
encouraged to live in Indian vii.
lagos, acquire the language, then
receive ministerial training and
come back as missionaries to the
Indians. The missionaries developed
an alphabet for the Indian Language:
prepared Indian primers and trans
lated materials. The Indian child
rem learned the three RS, sang
Christian hymns, and, in general.
acquired some culture of the whites.
A few church cemeteries in the
Saginaw Bay region of Michigan
still show the graves of Indians
who there were buried side by sid.

The Spirit of 1940
New York Times

'NPW 1OIk IHutSl
 Napoleon is quoted as having once said that the happies inspiration battle cften is record of the past In the present unhappy state of a world that appears often to be guided by counsel of despair that might not be a bad dictum to follow. It is not necessary to go back very far The summer and fall of 1940 will do In that year would-be ruler of the world encountered intangible battle odd that fused him and finally deterred him from undertaking an adventure that had considerable prospect of cess and might have made the world in l947 a con- Siderably more unhappy place than it is today.
 Publication by the United States Navy Depart ment and the British Admiralty of hitherto secret discussions among Adolf Hitler, Grand Admiral Raeder and other German military leaders shows that in the summer of l940 after Frances fall when the British stood almost alone against the Nazs it the intangible of British morale that Hitler and his m- tarT aides could quite evaluate and which above all other considerations led to postpone indefinitely the planned invasion of England, that fortress built by Nature itself" At that time, the "sceptred isle" had htle to offer against invasion except the indomitable courage of it's people.
 Just a remembrance of that recent past of the dark days of 1940 makes today's problems diminish in importance and in urgency. Todays problems would carry even les if the free people of the world would show in l947 the moral resliency the British people showed just they could muster the toughness of spirit, the same refusal to bow to circumstances the determina ton to the crisis through to victory shown in 1940.
 It is difficult in peacetime. of course, to muster the feeling of unity, the same courage and determination is shown in such full measure by so many in times of Life is much more complex in
 peaceful world Crises lose their wartime clarity of line. But they be just important. little unity in the world between 1918 and l939 a little of the spirit of individual sacrifice for the common good could well have made impossible the necessity of such decision that which confronted the British in 940-whether to die like men live on slaves.
 There other things to be learned from a read of the record of the Naz conferences in those days of their great ycSories-the corrupting influence of easy triumph, for But the important is that the human spirit is the important element in every situation. That is true in peace it is in war. We will have the kind of world deserve

aIter taking over his new assign ment was to turn the soap world topsy- -turvy by insisting that the Association of American Soap and Glycerine Producers be headed by a small soaper.
 For years there had Deen rivalry and bitterness between the three tig soap companies of the USA Lever rothers. Proctor and Gamble and Colgatesj on one hand, and about 400 small soap companies on the other. Always in the past, the big three had rotated as head of the soap association-much to the resentment of the small Soapers. '
 Great was the astonishment Tn the soap trade, therefore, when Luckrnan, newly appointed head oi the largest soap company In the USA calmly announced that though it was his turn to be president oi the soap association he would Ster aside in favor of a little soaper.

 Meanwhile, prominent New England economist predicts that recession lasting some months will occur ill 1948 with prices falling.

Luckman, however, is not one to koWtoW to labor In fact, he level cd some caustic barbS directly at labor union chiefs in the place where it hurts most. After consid- --able research, Luckman discov- cred that out Of 600 labor newspa- pers in the USA only seven had bargaining contracts with their own employees.
 Tt is doubtful whether as many as 10000 of the 10000 people who work for the unions are protected by collective bargaining and enjoy the benefits which organized labor demands that we establish for our employees" announced the man whom labor has praised so enthu- siastically.
 That, briefly, is the young busi- ness man picked to head one of the most difficult and thankless of committees, which decides how much the American people should eat and then sells them on the idea of staying within the limit pre- scribed

FORECASTS

A special Congressional report issued recently shows that in July the average American family spent s93 for what it would have paid slOO in the period l935-39 and since then food costs have gone StlIi higher to double more the prewar figure
 Food prices according to the survey reflect the unprecedented levels of employment and aggregate individual incomes reached during the war and more particularly during the past year.
 Demand for and consumption of food" it said have continued to advance and to match the total high level of food production. Exports have con- tributed somewhat to domestic food pressures' but these have been mainly in grains especially wheat in which production has been very high
 Food production has continued at record levels reflectng incentives of higher prices received by farmers government subsidies and price protection under parity-price legislation etc. In addition to intensified efforts by farmers better than-average weather has contributed greatly in achieving high production The first serious weather setback over period of six or years occurred this year with a late and rainy spring followed by dry hot July and August the Midwest, combination which threatens lower production for some farm products particularly
 While the high prices of food may be generally explained by high levels of current income and con sumption, the effects shared uneYeny by tht population For many people incomes have not kep pace with rising food costs.
 This is particularly true among lowest-n families and such saared groups teachers nurses office workers and those living on retirement and

EXIT SOAP OPERAS

Another revolutionary move made by Luckman was to drop soap oper- as. These radio dramas heard over the air while the housewife washes her dishes have been the bulwark of soap advertising for years. But Luckman dropped them.
 T don't think murder, divorce, ard sex is good for the public he expla ned, and what isn't good for the public isn't good for my busi- ness"
 Instead he concentrated on Bob Hopes humor, more newspaper advertising and on a cleangovern- ment radio drama called Fighting Senator"
 Luckmans latest sensation has been in the field of labor relations.
 When I think of the millions of dollars spent annually by business on psychoanalyZing the tastes and preferences ol customers" he told the startled business world. T am appalled, at the picayune appropri- ations for research into the think ing, the desires, and hopes of the people on our payrolls. If we were to devote to basic industrial rela- tions research just 10 percent of the amount we appropriate annu- ally for consumer research, we would not be such puzzled inhabi- { tants of the cockeyed world in which we live"
 Carrying out that creed, Luck man recently signed contract with the Chemical Workers Union ! (AFL) which H. A. Bradley, head | Of the union. called "one of the best examples of good collective l bargaining in the United States. " If we had more mutual under 1 standing ol this sort" Bradley said,
 the so-called labor problem wouldn't exist"

 In the end. Anderson won out. Chuck Luekmal aged 38, one of the miracles Of American business, was made Chairman Of the Food Committee
 The Secretary of Agriculture had come to know Luckman at the close of the war when the soap companies. the American housewife, and the U s. Government all were worried over the scarcity of fats. At that time Luckman came in to see Anderson, offered to make a survey of the world fat situation. The survey probably cost Luckman s 600 but he didn't even keep a copy for himself.
 It helped us beat the fat short age" Anderson says. For, as a result, we were able to encourage rapeseed in Europe, nut oils il England, and so on. It was one ol the best jobs I've ever seen"

POWER SYSTEM5 IN
 SEWARD TAXING
 FIGHT INTO COURTS

SEWARD, Alaska. Oct. 2.-iR- This citys rivalry between private ly and municipally owned power systems will be brought into court next Saturday when the privately owned Seward Light and Power Company will appear in magis- trate's court cn charges of replac- ing telephone poles without fran chise.
 The action was preceded by an August 4 city council resolution calling upon the company to re- move all poles and other light and power equipment from the city streets by August l of next year on the renewing its franchise.
 The Seward Light and Power Company was purchased la S t month from Mrs E. w. Knight by a group ol veterans-Orin Welch, T. P. OrBrien and A. H. Watson. who also operate the Anchorage Electric Company.
 While the munlclpally owned Seward electric system furnishes power to twice as many customers, the older private concern derives additional revenue from it's tele- phone system.
 In a proposed bond issue to be voted upon in the October 20 spec ial election, s900O0 is earmarked for expanding the municipality owned power plant. Property own CTS will vote on whether the city shall be bonded for S300000 Y
 Issues to be decided at the elec- tion include s90,000 for expansion Of the generating plant and exten- sion of the distribution facilities of the municipal power system; S100 900 for acquiring and improv- ing the Seward Water Company, now owned by " Hoban and Edly Davis. and s40,000 for acquiring the government-owne Seward marine ways deck and small boat harbor

NEW SOAP EMPEROR

Not many people had heard of Chuck Luckman until about a year ago, when suddenly Lord Lever hulme, inheritor of the vast Lever soap empire which bears his fath- CTS name, called him to London. And at a meeting of Lever direc- tors, Luckman was told he had been selected to head Levers im- mensely profitable properties in the United States.
 But you don't know me coun- tered the 37-year-old Luckman.
 We know all about you" replied chairman Godfrey Heyworth thumbing through a thick report on every phase of Luckman's life
 In that report was the story of a Kansas City boy who began life selling newspapers, jerking sodas delivering groceries, and after work ing his way through the University of Illinois, finally selling soap for Colgates In fact, Luckman has been selling one thing or another all of his life, and eventually made such a showing for Colgate that he was snapped up by the Pepso- dent Company. Result: Pepsodent's gross profits rose from S600000 tc $3,00000
 Later, Lever Brothers bought ur Pepsodent. And it has been said ir the soap trade that Lever bought Pepsodent out only to obtain the services of Chuck Luckman. (HI present salary. $3OO,OOo a year.
