FREE SOCIETY VS. POLICE STATE

Concerned over mounting i'll will in the world especially that growing out of theological coh1hc's with Russia and the Western democraces, the Feo- eral Council of the Churches of Christ in America calls for specialization of under dispute in the hone that the debate be settled before any resort to arms If only it can be made clear, the Council holds that the greatest obstacle to world unity IS division between freedom and the slavery which noce state must impose, there would be such an urge toward freedom that the Soviet Union would be forced in ove way Such economic issues as Communism vers,,s capitalism or state socialism versus private enterprise the Council somewhat optimsticaly argues are relatively unimportant In free world these proo lenns in the long run would solve themselves
 Soviet propaganda the Council is convinced, has
 sad other nations to feel themselves caught between two great Powers jockeying for political and eco ncn,ic advantage It calls for moral crusade to correct that msapprehension. Explaining the basis for such crusade the statement distributed to l4o, GOO members of Protestant and Greek Orthodox churches for discussion, declares
 Our nation must stand plainly for some
 thing so simple that all can understand ana
 so clearly right that all men of good will Will
 agree That goal is world of free societies
 wherein all men, the children Of God are
 recognized to have certain basic rights in
 cluding liberty to hold and change beliefs from
 their own government and immunity from per

 Such a statement backed up by a program of relief and rehabilitation which stresses spiritual as well as material help and avoids fostering of political alliances may help to bring about what its authors hope Certainly nothing else that the United States

CT but his Ohio colleague, Bob Taft, put him well in the shade. Bricker made his Washington de- but with a gridiron speech which struck a universally sour note, and he kept sounding sour hotes during most of the session. He worked more for his Ohio banking friend, John Galbreath, and the real-estate lobby than for veterans. One real estate lobby even gloated over the fact that Bricker introduced four bills for them.

A firm foundation for marriage lies in building it upon habit,
mutual affection and a certain amount of patient indulgence. 1t is
not easy, this slow building of a successful marriage. Most folks want
everything quickly, even happiness. But it takes time to reach the
perfect goal in connubial bliss.
Husband and wife must grow together, learn to live together, to
compromise, cooperate and respect each others ideas and way of life.
No-Woman, or man can build a happy marriage alone, for it requires
perseverance and teamwork of a high order.
The stability of the home is the foundation Of any nation. Re-
member, if a marriage is worth making, it is worth preserving.

it will be a big time for all.
Somehow they feel like they
are not fully accepted by God
until they are baptized. Then
too, they take on a Christian
name, usually from the Bible.
You see they are all named
through some superstition or
appeasement toward their god
and they want to be renamed
as a testimony, one might say.
They usually have a big meal
or feast afterwards as cele-
bration. I'll try to get some
good pictures of it to send you.

When classes convene on

The following quotations are from
his book:
Here was being proved again
that the best friends the Com
munists have are the reactionaries
who insist upon labelling as a Red
every one with whom they disagree
This sort of propaganda gives to
the real Communist the very kind
of smoke screen behind which he
can operate best.
Fear Isolation Most.
"The one thing the Communists
fear most is that they will be
isolated from the sincere liberals
and will have to fight their own
battles.
LAS long as reactionary propa-
ganda helps them to avoid this, they
are relatively safe and, whether the
Communist Party is 'outlawed' or
not, can go merrily on in one gulse
or another playing hob with every
decent move for better Nation
that may arise in these United
States.
With new personnel and leader
ship, the Committee on Un-Amer-
ican Activities still goes on. What
its future course will be I do not
know. Some apparently important
revelations about key Communist
figures were brought out in early

this line and did not forget that
