HOOVER PREDICTS
BIG FOOD CRISIS
Former President Endorses
$35O,O0O,OO For Re-
lief In Europe

WASHINGTON. April 18-(R-
Former President Herbert Hoover
told an informal news conference
today that the world faces a worse
food crisis next year, largely
because the wars vietors have
-a destroying Europe's fertilizer
manufacturing plants.
Hoover, who made a personal
survey of Europe's food production
prospects at President Humans
request, came out of a closed
meeting of the Senate Foreign
Relations committee and told re-
porters that he had Endorsed House
legislation to supply $3.50, 000, 900 in
relief to European countries.
Modest Safeguard
He said that he urged that ad-
ministration of this program be
surrounded by modest safe
guards"
The most important thing, how
ever, Hoover said, is to get the
productive capacity of Europe
built up again Immediately. He
said 'all Europe is gasping for
fertilizer."
THE world food crisis IS likely
to be worse next year than. it was
been this year." the former Re-
publican President said. He said
a severe winter in Europe, COM
bined with floods, had cut pro-
duction.

Lesson
NATIONAL GLORY AND DECAY
Scriptures: / Kings III

Scriptures: I Kings III
BY WILLIAM E. GILROY, d. D.
The national glory and decay
OF Israel were associated With the
glory and decay of one marking
Solomon, man of wisdom, temple
builder, consolidator of the king
dom. At the height of his glory
decay began to set in, because he
departed from the wisdom he had
sought above all else, and from
the integrity, humility, and relig-
ious devotion SC manifest in the
beautiful prayer at the dedication
of the Temple.
1t is commonly said that mo
man is Indispensable" but that
notion is commonly discredited by
the facts of life and history. Great
businesses often fail when the
founder and controlling figure
dies. Battles and wars are lost
AM the destiny of nations affect
ed when some great leader falls.
s1ourishing churches dwindle
when no nj arises to succeed
some outstanding pastoral leader.
In almost every field il which
strength and character count
will find innumerable instances
where some man who died was
really indispensable and failure
and decay ensued because no one
arose to take his place.
The sort of strength and char
ecter that Solomon represented in
his early career was indispensable
to a strong and stable kingdom.
The outward glory lasted while
Solomon lived, but decay began
when he departed from the prin-
ciples Of his early reign.
The way vas already laid for
the rebellion an division that
quickly came in Israel following
his death.
The story of the rise and fall
OF the Kingdom of Israel is in
structive and full of guidance and
warning Cor our w times. Facts
and principles that underlie the
welfare of nations and peoples r
well illustrated. In one respect,
however, we can be glad that we
live in a modern democracy and
in an atmosphere of freedom,
rather than il those ancient times
The opening chapters of the
First Book of Kings tell of bitter
enmities and violent deaths per-
petrated in feuds, rivalries, ard
hatreds. 1t would be a mistake to
assume that feuds. rivalries, ard
hatreds are not found in the mod
ern world.
In fact we have been familiar
with ''purges" in some countries,
but in democracies of the British
and American type the reign OF
law and the function of law in
maintaining the freedom of the
individual have become we'll es-
tablished.
Rival leaders of groups and
parties no longer resort to vlo-
lence and the weapon of assassi-
nation. We have progressed even
from the days when n Ameri-
can statesman killed another in a
duel.
If we can learn from ancient
Israel, ancient Israel might have
learned some things from us in
our progress toward tolerance
and freedom.
