"We are more interested" he
wrote, Sin creating new wealth

ing what there is, luxury which
only a state-managed economy
can bestow upon its children"
Blaming "tinkering in high
places" for the present situation
in which many manufacturers,
and other business men have mo
alternative but to increase wages
and kick prices a little higher in
order to bail out" Mr.. Wilson
criticized the principal distortions
in the price structure.
"In somewhat roundabout FASH
ion," Mr.. Wilson told the Iron
and Steel Institute, 1--WE have
come to a situation in our ma
tional life important to manage
ment and labor, vendor and ven
dee, public servant and private
enterpriser. 1t is this: Are we to
purchase social stability, a more
equitable distribution of wealth,
and insurance against the hazards
of unemployment, sickness and
other unhappy by-products of a
non-interference economy by CIV
ing up large chunk of our tra-
ditional freedom and independ-
ence in favor of a planned and
controlled economy?"

1t is not even necessary to employ
soldering. All electrical connections
can be made fast with glue. First lay
out full-size patterns of the body and
chassis from the plans given. Cut out
the chassis as shown and construct
the body as shown in Fig. /. After
body is glued together and dry, pin it
temporarily to the chassis and sand
the entire assembly down to stream
line shape.
Fig. 2 shows the general assembly
of all parts after the chassis and body
pieces have been built. Make certain
the battery makes proper contact at
its terminal points, oil axles literally
and motor sparingly and the model
is ready for testing. Paint to suit.
Fasten body to chassis with two small
screws as shown in Fig. 2.
By lengthening the body to permit
the use of two batteries in series much
greater speeds can be obtained but
wheel size should not be decreased as
the gear ratio given is correct for the
motors recommended.

God Bless America Was
Written "a Years Ago

God Bless America, land that
love" Irving Berlin.
II fervently believe that God
Bless America is the most impor-
tant thing l have written in 35 years
as composer of songs.
There is a story behind God
Bless America / composed it over
20 years ago, for the finale of a
play, Zip, Zip, Yaphank' which in
1917, I wrote for the soldiers when
! was Sergeant Berlin at Camp
Upton. AS the boys were on their
way to France, l didn't think it was
quite appropriate, SO put it aside
and wrote new song.
Two years ago 1 wanted to
write great American song about
peace" Berlin continued. Il was
on the lie de France, and returning
from London, where I had attended
the British premiere of 'Alexan-
der's Rag Time Band / had beeIl
through the Munich crisis. When
was home, nothing l wrote seemed
adequate. Then l remembered
God Bless America.
II had to change the melody of
the middle bars and change two
lines which had a war-like note to
it: Make her victorious on land
and sea-.
THE lines I substituted read:
From the mountains, to the
prairies,
To the oceans white with foam,'
When Kate Smith wanted an
especial song to sing on Armistice
day, I gave her God Bless Amer
ica.' The country began to sing
it over night, and yet it was not
published for a year and half
after that broadcast"

Farm Business and Labor Leaders

perienced the preliminary and
conditioning doses of planned
economy and after a decent in
terval rejected them at the polls
and elsewhere, Mr.. Wilson con-
tinued:
1--WE do not want to turn away
from the problems of imitation,
housing, agriculture, depression
and unemployment, the perils of
unregulated industrial disorders,
the benefits of constructive
unionism, the question of uni
versal military service, regula-
ton of atomic energy projects,
financial and investment safe
guards,-from any of the things
which will help more Americans
live longer, healthier, safer, more
comfortable, more efficient, pros
porous and useful lives. We want
to eat our cake-and have it."
The General Electric executive
said we need government in the
modern economic picture, but
governments participation must
be by law, not by executive
whim." Government should par
ticipate. he said, as an enforcer,
not as a petty tyrant.
Stating that we have right to
expect only the virtues of COM
mon sense, fairness, and respect
for law in our national law maxi
ers, Mr.. Wilson declared that
private citizens owe them a duty
to supply expert advice and
counsel in special fields. 1t is
vital, he said, that some form of
continuous conference be set up
at which non-governmental lead
ers in business. agriculture and
labor will sit with representa-
tives of the proper committees of
House and Senate, and with ac-
cess to the statistics and knowl-
edge of governmental depart
ments assist the legislative branch
in writing the laws. He stressed
that such conference would be
advisory and unofficial, but ex-
tremely practical and helpful"

height, might, majesty, and glory
of infinite Love fill all space. That
is enough! Human language can

hended by mortals, than is his in
finite Principle, Love. Principle
and its idea, man, are coexistent

TEAM DEFEATS
WARWICK NINE
WaIly Powell Pitches One-Hit
Game Here Sunday;
Is StrikeOutS
MEET KENTON SUNDAY

In the finest pitching perform
ance of the season, Powell set
down the Warwick baseball team
with one single on the afternoon of
July 81, and Smyrna won by a II
to o score. Besides giving up one
hit, Powell walked one, hit E
Price on the elbow with pitched
ball, and struck out fifteen. Only
thirty Warwick batters faced Pow
ell during the nine innings. -Four
of these reached first base: Clay on
a walk in the third; P. Price on q
single in the fourth; E. Price when
he was struck by thrown ball in
the fifth; and Clay again in the
eighth when Lovegrove's throw t.
first was in the dirt. Of these
only the first two reached second
They both stole, and they both got
no further than second base. AT
no time did Warwick come even
close to scoring.
Smyrna Gets Four Runs in First
Smyrna started off with a rush.
In the first inning, after Robinson
went out, Seward doubled and stole
third. Grier walked and moved to
second. R. Handsberry singled
Seward and Grier home. Love-
grove singled, and Handsberry
moved to third. Lovegrove went
to second. Powell went out. Rob-
ert Jacobs singled in two more
runs. Warwick managed to get
Sam Jacobs out for the third out.
The second inning was even more
prolific in runs for Smyrna. Hop
kins hit safely, Robinson laid down
a bunt single, Seward got his Sec
ond double, Grier singled and stole
second, r. Handsberry walked,
Lovegrove was safe on a poor
throw and stole second, Powell hit
a long fly scoring Handsberry from
third, Robert Jacobs doubled, and
Hopkins got his second hit in the
same inning. BY the time War
wick got three Smyrna men out,
the Smyrna team had scored seven
more runs.
In the third inning, Robinson
singled, stole second, and scored
when Richard Handsberry hit his
second single.
With a 12-run lead, the Smyrna
attack slowed up. Sam Jacobs
singled in the fourth inning, but
was not advanced from first.

Africa definitely had a message
to bring to America; a gospel of
living up to the human beliefs
they profess. Turning to the
fifth Chapter of st. Mathew Cos
pei, he read that we should love
our enemies and do good to them
that despitefully use us.
He thought-at least. the black
people do not act like enemies
the white. Certainly the whites
would have been treating us, the
blacks, as brothers because they
are a Christian people. If white
brothers discriminate against
their blacks ones, how do they
propose to make it easy for the
blacks to love then?
The race segregation law did
not make sense-What hypocrisy!
What a pardox! VIVA: a shame
