Declaration Made thdi Plans Disintegrdfing
 Economic Situation

GENEVA, Switzerland, May 6-iR A United Nations Commission contended the European Recovery Program and various national trade policies of European countries are furthering the disintegration ot Europe's economy-in effect hurt ing more than they are helping.
 The declaration was made in a survey of the LIN. Economic Com mission for Europe, an agency which includes specialists from na- tions on each side of the iron cur tain. Nc nations in the Soviet bloc are members of the ERP, wiIic.i cost the United States more than 4,50O, ,OO0, ,00O in its first year of operation.
 The commission was created in l947 by the LIN. Economic and So- cial Council to coordinate emer- gency organizations working to re- habilitate Europe. It includes all European countries except Spain.
 The commission said long term program of American capital in- vestment, much like the way Britain financed economic develop ment overseas in the 18th century, is the only solution it can see.
 Eastern European countries, the report said, because of American restrictions on imports to them are the only ones in Europe having a favorable trade balance with the United States.

 It was the second day of idle ness for approximately coco C1o United Auto Workers. who walked out at noon yesterday III un!na protest against what the JAW called a '.speed-upp Of assembly lines.
 Nearly 6G000 struck at the Rouge plant, one of Americas industrial giants, and approximately 5009 more walked out at Fords Lineoln- Mecury plant nearby.
 Just how long the strike might last was anybody's guess. No im- mediate renewal oi comrany-union negotiations for settlement of the dispute was scheduled But 1t was felt that both Ford and the JAW would be agreeable to early peace talks in view of the critical as- poets of prolonged strike.
 The company has estimated that within approximately week the worldwide operations of the sec end largest automobile manufact urer would be paralyzed Ford has more than 100000 production workers in 70 plants i'll the United States.
 Picketing continued in an order ly fashion today, just as when the walkout began.

That's why, every so often, I try to take a vacation from skulduggery -rooting and see what the rest of the U.SA. is doing.

Cooperation
BY Rev. L. I'll. Hodges

This word is often used by the
majority of so called leaders. What
Is meant by so-called leaders is:
Those who are attempting to lead
the people by talking cooperation
and not practcing there we go
again. Last week the readers were
told a few things about the pur-
pose of Jesus Christs' mission on
earth, and the minister this week
is talking about word that is used
by most preachers and business
concerns and is praceiced less.
Where do you buy your gro
ceries? Do you pass by the nearby
store, and walk two or three blocks
away to buy loaf of bread? Think
it over. There are enough ministers
in this state as well as professional
and business people to break up a
number of existing conditions which
are saping the life of the $4,000 of
us in this state.
This writer has discovered by
personal experience that the minis
ters are the most blamed for the
people not cooperating or working
together. Why mention the minister
so much? It is because God made
the pre- acher the overseer and
leader of the people. Now the people
want to cooperate, but they dare
to resent their leaders. If the peo-
pie could see the ministers walking
by the same rule and preaching the
same gospel, 1 Cor. 1:1O) Now I
beseech you, brethern, by the name
of our Lord Jesus Christ, that ye
all speak the same thing, and that
there be no division amony you;
but that we be perfectly joined to-
gether in the same judgement.
Then people would be together.
Brother ministers when we let the
members and the people who are
not members see and hear us talk
ing and fighting against one
another, don't think one time that
we are fooling them, and some day
we will meet our short comings.
Read: Gal. 6:7. I say there are but
a few who really will put the word
cooperation into action.
For instance: Ministers of the
same church will work against each
other: I have known some of us to
sway the people by telling lie on
one another. Please stop and read:
Gal: 6:1O; as we have therefore
opportunity, let us do good unto
all men, especially unto them who
are of house hold of faith. Then
you can see that if you are in the
above named faulty group (of
which I call the slime cat group
you can just slip out, then God
can use you to help build his king
dom on earth.
The minister who has only GER
tain ones to deal with when it is a
question of the gospel, is a sinner.
Read: James 2:9. When people
learn the real meaning of co-opera-

denounced the book because it had
introduced a few patriotic hymns.
MY Country, 'tis Of Thee" has no
nlace in public worship, he said.
If that man had been a clos
er student of the Psalms, he
would not have made such a
criticism. Most patriotic hymns
are really prayers for ones
native land; Psalms los and 1O6
are only two of number OF
Psalms which are in the best
sense of the word patriotic.
If the reader will look through
the Psalms for himself, noting all
the references to God and to Israel,
remembering that Israel was the
name of the poets country, he Will
be convinced that in those times
as in these, love for God and love
for country are singable.
Hallelujah
oUR word ''Hallelujah" is He
~ brew, and comes from the
Psalms. It means "Praise ye the
Lord!" Incidentally, it is a relig-
ious word, and should not be used'
as it so often is. irreverently or
lightly. Psalms 111-118 in our
Bible were sung as a group, ana
called the Hallel, or the Praise.
The Hallel was sung regularly at
the three great holiday festivals:
Passover (near our Easter time),
Pentecost Gin early summer, ances-
tor of our Whitsunday). and Taber-
nacles Gin the falD.
When our Lord had his Last
Supper" he and his friends
would sing these very Psalms.
The ''hymn" they sang before
they went out was very prob
ably the latter part of this
group, 1918, always sung at
the end Of the Passover meal.
The note of praise in these
Psalms is very strong. They are
not in minor key.
Parodies
X SAD FACT today Is that the
"A un-Christian world, which does
not understand religion at all, has
taken over our religious holidays
but leaves the religion out. The
result is parody, something with
out rhyme or reason. Take look,
next winter, at Christmas greeting
cards for sale. You will find scot
ty pups, all sorts Of things, more
easily than you will find true
Christmas messages.
For people who are not Chris
tians, Christmas Is only Xmas,
a time for exchanging useless
presents, a time for shopkeep-
ers to make money.
And as for Easter, there are
cities where the big items are only
the bunnies and the parade, neither
of which has the slightest thing to
do with the real Easter.

TT looks as if some kinds of holi-

don't. It appears to be a general
rule: If the holiday is specially
patriotic or religious. then people
sing; otherwise they don't. God
and country, in short, arouse emo
ton and enthusiasm which (for ex-
ample) the memory even of a great
man like Jefferson, or the planting
of a tree, does not. This is generally
true throughout the world. 1t was
true in ancient Israel, for many OF

crease in continued claims stated

in the report, is partly due to the
exhaustion of benefits for the fe-
male textile workers laid off in
December and hence may not be
considered as adding to the
bright side of the picture. The
decrease, he said, is also partly
due to the placement of several

Despite the latter bright note,
