Looking Ahead
by George S. Benson. President.
Harding College. Secrecy. Ark.

oAaS Soiie9es SeuICYs Ark.
There are enemies of our Am
erican heritage. Some men have
been working for a generation to
destroy the productive ability that
America has built. Communism
hates freedom of opportunity,
hates competition, hates private
management, hates the idea of
private investment in tools. Pro-
pagandists of this sort started
working hard in our country right
after World War I, and they were
bent upon the destruction of all
these things, one way or another.
Expertly directed, these pro-
pagandists did not start out by
telling people they should be
Communists, nor did they tell
people to overthrow the Ameri-
can way of life. But they did
begin, very shrewdly, to lay a
foundation that they hoped would
bring things within a generation
to the point wher they could pub
licly advocate the overthrow of
our way of life. They have des-
perately near succeeded. The
threat is serious.
Experts Testify
]. Edgar Hoover is better quail
fled than anybody in America
to speak on this subject. He has
said: Zone Of the two major
problems facing this nation is the
subversive propaganda aimed al
the destruction Of our way Of
life" General Marshall has sum-
married it this way: I'VE are fac
ed with the danger of the actual
disappearance Of the Western
| civilization upon which our gov
eminent and our way Of life are
based"
Another great American, Presi-
dent Eisenhower of Columbis
University, wrote last June: 81
firmly believe that the army Of
persons who urge greater and
greater Capitalization of authori
ty and greater and greater depen
dence upon the federal treasury
are really more dangerous to oul
form of government than any ex'
ternal threat that can possibly b
arrayed against u.s." He is exact.
ly right, for that is how the Am
erican system can be brought t.
decay.
Power-And Dissension
J Woodrow Wilson, another grea

thinker, declared out of his great
democratic soul: "The history of
liberty is the history of limitation
OF governmental power, not the
increase of it. When we resist
concentration of power we are
resisting the process of death, be-
cause the concentration of power
is always what proceeds the de-
struction of human liberties" We
have seen this power grow, in our
time.
AT the same time the propa-
gandists in America have CENTER
ed their attack upon private pro-
fits. upon the profit system, and
upon competition. To accomplish
their purposes, they have tried to
drive a wedge between employers
and employees. They have Great
ed so much dissatisfaction that
they have jeopardized our pro-
ductivity. They have created an
tagonistic attitudes toward man
agement. They have led many
honest but unthinking people to
believe that profits are immoral.
One Crisis To Go
So well have these attackers
laid their plans, it is my firm be-
lief that if we should now be
thrown into a serious national cri-
sis-either another serious war or
any considerable amount of I'M
employment for any considerable
length of time--somebody would
then be able to run for president
and others for congress on pro-
misses to nationalize our indus
tries. These candidates could pro-
mise full employment and high
wages and be elected.
In other words l think that we
are Just now one national crisis
from the socialistic state, from
governmental management and
operation of American industry,
unless the present psychology is
changed in the meantime. How
shall we get back to sanity? We
must have a rebirth Of apprecia.

up our American heritage. Re.

Frozen Tomuto Juice

91O1Su 4OI1AA40 SAA~V
Scientists still haven't found a
way to freeze fresh tomatoes, but
a food chemist in New York has
successfully pressed tomato juice.
When you try the fresh frozen
juice, you will find it has the
taste of fresh raw tomatoes. Since
most people are used to the flavor
of canned juice, it may be well to
try the frozen juice in small
amounts at first.
To freeze tomato juice, wash
well-ripened tomatoes. Remove
stems and green spots, and cut
the tomatoes in sixths. Simmer
the pieces just five minutes to
soften and start the flow Of juice.
Press through a sieve.
Add one teaspoon Of salt to
each pint Of juice. Cool the juice
rapidly Put In glass jars or
other suitable container and
freeze.
Speed in preparing and freez-
ing is important for high-quality
frozen Juice.
If you were home canning to-
mato juice, you would simmer the
tomato pieces before straining.
Then process pint or quart jars

Felt Use

Felt Use
Old felt hats often are discarded
just because they look dingy or
style. Yet clothing specialists say
that wool or fur felt is easy to
clean, press, re-block or remodel
or to use in making bedroom
slippers, children's headwear,
handbags, belts, mittens or other
useful and decorative articles.
To remove dust and brighten
felt, first brush with stiff brush
or very fine sandpaper, then
sponge with dry cleaning fluid.
Steaming makes felt easy to mold
to the size and shape desired. To
press, cover felt with press cloth
and use a hot iron. Handle felt
gently when damp, the specialists
caution, because it is pressed to-
gether, not woven, and therefore
easily broken or pulled apart.
