Ministers who use Theatrical
practices to bring worshipers into
their churches were criticized today
by Miss Mary E. Walsh, Columbia
Union Conference Bible instructor
as contributing to "the same con-
ditions today that prevailed in the
world before the downfall of ancient
Babylon"
Miss Walsh, speaking at the bien-
NAL meeting of the Potomac Con-
ference of the Seventh-Day Ad-
ventists at Sligo Church. Takoma
Park, declared that when churches
today resort to dancing out portions
of the Scripture to attract people
10 the Bible and to the churches, it
sounds very much like ancient
Babylon. And God said that when
the nations drink from the cup
of Babylon they were mad.

One tired old barrage balloon
raised a false scare today that the
Russians were putting up a new
obstacle to the aerial food ferry
route.
Excited United States Air Force
officials, suspecting threat to the
air lifeline to Berlin, found a sup
posed mass of obstacles was just an
old balloon that has flown a long
time in the corridor between Ber-
lin and the British zone.
The balloon is used by the Rus

Hopes to Resume Rail Service.
Marshal VASTLY D. Sokolovsky
the Russian commander in Ger
many, cautioned last night that he
hoped flying regulations would be
faithfully followed Some thought
that also might have been a hint
of forthcoming efforts to shut of
the last food lifeline to the more
than 100000 Germans in the
western sectors of Berlin.
In last nights statement, how
ever, Marshal Sokolovsky said he
hoped that train service from the
West into Berlin could be resumed
before the city's food stocks run out,
Commenting on that statement
this morning, Col. Frank L. How
ley, the American commandant Of
Berlin, had this to say:
"If the Russians want to lift the
blockade, that will be fine. But
We will wait for deeds rather than
words"
The United States Army's Tenn
plehof air base announced that 157
flights had been received during
"a hours up to last midnight, bring
ing supplies to the American and
German population. 81
This total may be exceeded today
as planes are flying from Wies-
baden as well as Frankfurt air
ports. The British Royal Air Force
also is expanding its air shuttle
service to Berlin. .-..r.
Barge Traffic Halted.
A British official In Hamburg
said today that barge traffic, the
British zones last ground supply
link with Berlin, has stopped NOV
ing along the Elbe River. He said
the barges had been held up at the
Russian control point at Witten-
berg.
Rail traffic from the west has
been frozen for the past 10 days,
Motor traffic along sthe single high
way from Helmstedt to Berlin also
remained stopped.
The Russians relented in one
phase of their blockade. Through
their official press they announced
they had offered to restore fresh
milk deliveries to Western sectors
from their surrounding zone lin
exchange for compensating food
stuffs."
Col Howley commented:
"I don't consider this an act OF
generosity by the Russians or Ger
man Communists. The lives OF 5000
babies in our sector were endangered
by their sudden shutoff of milk sup
plies and many would have died II
we had not taken the precaution OF

densed milk in advance

BERLIN:
Blockade Talks Set

Hope for an early end to the Ber-
lin blockade iared upward. Russia
had accepted a new formula by the
neutral nations of the U. N. Secur-
ity Council for mediating the Big
Four deadlock on the German cap
ital issue.
Juan A. Bramuglia, Argentine
foreign minister. announced that
Soviet Foreign Minister Andrea Y.
Vishinsky had agreed to the plan
at a meeting with him. 1t called
for the naming of a neutral" com,
mission of currency experts.
BASIS for the ~resurgence of hope
that the issue could be amicably re.
solved was a statement by U. S.
Senator Connally that he believed
the Russian land blockade of Berlin
would be lifted soon"
Senator Connally told a new con.
ference that there is bound to be
a way out" of the deadlock over
Berlin. He said the argument over

joint control of any currency dis
tributed in Berlin.
The United States, France and
Britain gave approval in principle
to the Bramuglia proposal. Bramu-
glia stated he hoped for immediate
formal acceptance by the three
western powers and saw a posi-
bility for the new mediation effort
to get results.
THE NEW FORMULA of the
"neutrais"-China. Colombia, Syr-
ia, Canada. Argentina and Bel
gium-was aimed at meeting west

Soviet blockade of Berlin. 1t was
also known to contain provisions
for a commission of experts to try
to unravel thef Berlin currency

DEFLATION:
Truman on Lookout

Like the horseman who galloped
off in all directions. President Tru-
man is sprinting both to and fro in
the vexatious price control rise.
Just as the administration was
girding to battle mounting living
costs, prices sagged and now its
economic experts are debating the
need to don armor against defla-
ton.
Most economic policy-makers be-
lieve in~fationary forces still domi-
nate the national scene-but some
of them feel these forces are just
about spent.
ONE TOP-LEVEL fiscal official
declared. ''inf1ationary pressures
still outweigh the defationary
forces. But they aren't as great as
they were a few months ago."
In~hationary pressures have SUBJ
sided somewhat in recent weeks,
but many government economists
have adopted a wait and see" pol

The cost of living is n of the
important economic barometers in
dicating at least a temporary slack
ening of infationary pressures. AS
measured by the bureau of labor
statistics. living costs dropped
slightly between mid-October and
mid-November for the first time in
seven months, And department
store sales have been below their
usual pref Christmas levels
However. economists point out
that heavy spending for the armed

fingered the pasteboards for a look
at his hoe card. In a quick double
take. he looked again. Was it gone.
O. had it dwindIed to a deuce?
That's the way poker players
might have described the tense sit
uation which faced beleaguered
China and her generalissimo. The
United States. Ctina's only and all
powerful ally. appeared waning in
ardor for the generalissimo's lead
ership. No less an authoritative
U S. foreign-policy spokesman
than Senator Tom Gonna ly Cd,
Tex, who will head the senate
foreign relations committee in the
8Ist congress, had spoken
PUTTING IT BLUNTLY, Senator
ConnalIy had said. in effect, that
China generally. and Chang Kai-
shek especially. should have done
more to help themselves IN the bat
tie against Chinese Communist
forces before pressing an llth-hour
appeal for more American aid
The senator emphasized his view
point: He stated that the visit OF
N adame Chang Kai-shek to the
United States Vas mot by invita-
ton of the United States govern
ment." He made it clear n a
Madame Chang was lust a pro-
tagonist of the Chinese govern
ment."
WOE PILED UPON WOE for the
Chinese. Coincident with Senator
Connally's statement, press serv-
ices carried the following dispatch
from New Orleans: william Nc
Chesney Martin. president of the
U. S. Export Import bank, said the
bank would not ever consider a
loan now to Nationalist China He
said the Export-Import bank does
not have on hand as much money
as China probably will want, and
that China is a poor business
risk"
Why was Connally giving the
back of his hand to the generals
simo? Hear the senator: ''Chiang
is a generalissimo except that he
doesn't go out and ~generalize.
If he took command of one of his
armies in the field. he would do
more to revive the morale of his
people than anything else"
The Texan was but voicing pub
Iicly what other administration Of
ficials have been saying privately
that they are not too keen about
Madame Chiang's about propa-
ganda drive to divert more money
and materials to China. possibly
at the expense of the Marshall-plan
countries. Connally summed up by
saying that he was not prepared at
this time to pass any opinion on in
creasing the ad to China. but
added. Il am not in favor of send
ing combat troops to China"

AS a friend he is a person who
will stand by you in any sort of

believes and acts in the spirit of
fair play. He maintains his own
business on high level, and he
does not deliberately try to tear
down his competitors business.
You can depend upon his word
in business.
My second reason for support

he has shown exceptionally good
judgement in handling public bust

all I am interested in seeing Frank

cause he is a good American and
he stands up for what he believes
