He said the American family

to the social changes growing
out Of mechanical and social In
ventions. has yielded many Of
its traditional functions.
Machines and the factory sys-
tenn" said DR.. Johnson, have
reduced the economic functions
OF the family. Many aspects Of
religious and general education
have been transferred 10 the

Wise students of the family

In his concluding remarks, DR..
Johnson said to the service fam

II may be suggested that the
tradition Of dominance and sub

and the attitudes which ara as
sociated with this tradition are
in conflict with the democratic

third in a biblical trilOgy entitled
1.-THE Brothers, written by Peter
Lyon for the Eternal Light, will
be broadcast next Sunday, July

The trilogy, based on the stories
of "Cain and Abel, Jacob and
Esau" and Joseph and Benja-
min, dramatizes the brotherhood
ideal.
This weeks script, the last in
the series, retells the story of
Joseph, governor of PharOah's

for revenge against his brothers
is overcome through forgiveness.

COuuIFys
Early in the week, the strategic
towns of LYDIA, Ramleh and Ras
ell Ain were captured by Jewish
storm units. Some of the Israeli
commanders were surprised at the
weak resistance put up by the en-
envy. Lydda's capture assured the
Jews of the use of Palestine's
most important airport, while the
seizure of Ras ell Ain meant that
Jerusalem's water pumping sup
DIV was now in Jewish hands.
For the first time in the war,
Cairo was bombed by a Jewish
plane. An Egyptian Defense Min
istry announcement said that the
Israeli plane dropped some bombs
on the city, but did not indicate
whether any damage or casual
ties had resulted. Late in the
week, uncOnfirmed reports SAID
that the Israelis had entered Ma
zareth i'm the north central area,
after overrunning several Arab
villages on the city's periphery.
Tel Aviv came under heavy air
attack this week by Egyptian
Spitfires and Douglas DC-3s,
while Haifa was bombed twice by
Syrian planes. The Israeli capt.
tai had several alerts daily ana
one night attack. At least ID Jews
were killed and several scores
wounded in a particularly heavy
raid early in the week.
A major battle seemed destined
to break out in the Latrun area
where both sides were reported to
be regrouping for major engage
ment late in the week.. In Jerus-
alem, Israeli forces captured the
strategic Arab height OF SuDa'
overlooking the main Tel Aviv-
Jerusalem highway, which ended
the Arabs hopes for cutting the
road and laying siege to the clty's
Jewish community of 100000. An
expected Israeli offensive to storm
the Old City failed to materialize'
although Arabs resisting in the

The League also asked the Fed
eral Communications Commission
to take steps to block plans of
the Klan-through newly incor-
porated group in Columbus, Geor-
gia-to set up a powerful radio
broadcasting station of its own.
AT the same time, the Anti
Nazi League charged that the
1000 TaImadgite Georgia State
Democratic Convention, meeting
in Macon, Ga, cOnspired with the
Khan to prevent Negro citizens
and other minOrities from partic-
ipating in the September 8 Con-
gressiOnal and Statewide primary
elections.
AS it's first step to this end, the
Georgia Khan last month reached
it's goal of establishing a Klavern
in each of the States 159 coun-
ties before the primary election
takes place, the League disclosed
on the basis of confidential re-
ports of it's undercover observers.
Under a Supreme Court ruling
on April 10 of this year, the Lea
que states, Constitutional prOtec-
ton of the right to vote extends
to such primaries where Congress
siOnal candidates are being narsl-
ed, and therefore the Senate COM
mittee should investigate.
AS evidence of the frank intent
of the Talmadge convention, the
Anti-Nazi League cited guberna-
torial candidate Herman Tai
madge as saying recently,
"Frankly, the people of Georgia
do not have too much confidence
in the Supreme Court; if we can
not have a lilly-white primary,
we want it as white as we can get
it."
The League urged that Tai
madge and Grand Dragon Samuel
Green be summoned to Washing
ton for questioning under oath
and that the Khan leader be sited
for contempt should he refuse to
surrender records of the Klan's
contributors and political dis
bursements.
At a secret meeting last month,
according to confidential reports
in League files, Khan spokesman
addressing Green's No. 1 Klavern
in Atlanta, claimed that "sur-
prising number" of congressman
are already Klansmen, and men
toned Senator DIN B. Johnston
Cd, S. c. as a Brother Klans-
man." A former governor of his
State, Johnson served during the
war as defense attorney for Klux-
ers who were jailed for masked
parading without a permit.
The League offered to have one
or more of its undercOver Khan
operators testify before the Sen
ate subcommittee as to specific
evidence of Ku KIux Khan efforts
to prevent Negroes from voting
and to elect "white supremacy"
candidates to the Senate and
Congress.
In its complaint, the Anti-Nazi
League said its undercover OBJ
