of any ones life are immensely inn
portant.
So it is with the Christian church
Few sensible people would want to
return to the days of the church's
infancy in the first few months and
years after Christ's resurrection.
And yet that was a vital era. For
the Sundays between now and
Easter we shall be looking at the
early Christian church.
Very early, that is; so early
that the name christian" was
quite new, and even the word
Church" was not often used.
We shall find that as those un-
tried Christians faced their
world, they met with many
problems similar to those with
: which the church Of today has
to grapple.
How they did it, how they suc-
ceeded and how they sometimes
failed, is not mere story Of the
1ong-ago, but is valuable as we
think about our own times.
Praying Into Tomorrow
THE TEN DAYS between Jesus
/ ascension and the great event
Of Pentecost were among the most
fateful in all Christian history. The
church, if we can call by that
name the little group of few
dozen friends Of Jesus who fingered
together in Jerusalem. did not pro-
fess to read the future. But during
those ten days of suspense they did
three things; they waited, they pre-
pared. they prayed.
They waited because Jesus had
told them to wait wait for
power, he said. What the power
might be like they did not yet
know. No doubt some Of them had
business Of one sort or another
back in Galilee; but Jesus said.
Wait-and so they waited.
q They. also prepared, by set
ting apart . witness to take
the place Of Judas. And above
al, they prayed. Tomorrow for
them was darkly uncertain,
Jesus had dropped hints about
persecution; they were not
naturally supermen.
Yet In the midst Of vague fears,
and facing tomorrow which was
one large question-mark, those
early Christians-much less we'll
informed and ''worldly-wise" thar
,we-did the wisest thing they could
have done: they spent their time in
prayer. A praying church is on the
way to power.
So as we begin new year, the
best thing Christians can do is not
to make all the noise they can, but
quietly to wait in Gods presence.

In an apparent paradox. the
so-called 70-group Air Force bill,
approved by the House and now
awaiting committee considera-
tion in the Senate, would accom-
plish both more and less than
establish an Air Force Of 10
groups.
1t would do more because it
would define the United States Air
Force by law for the first time.
1t would do less because. while
stating that there shall be 10
air groups in the Air Force, 1t
would not provide the money to
buy the planes or pay the men
of such a force.
In fact. half the measure doesn't
concern the Air Force at all. It
deals. instead. with the author
lied .peacetime strength Of the
Army.
States Position Of Congress.
The whole idea of the measure
is to state Congress position on
how large an Army and Air Force
the United States should have.
Paying the bills Is a separate mat
ter under the legislative system.
Appropriations are authorized in
one enactment; the funds are
made available In q later one
or not made available, in the dis
cretion Of Congress.
If. as appears certain, the Sen
ate approves and the President
signs the bill passed by the House,
the framework Of the Nation s
separate air arm would have q
legal basis for the first time.
The National Security Act of
1s47 provided that the Air Force
should be an independent ele-
ment of the defense forces, but
it did not specify the size and
shape of the organization.
The new bill would fix the
strength at 10 Regular Air Force
combat groups. 20 separate squad
rons. 81 groups in the Air Re-
serve and Air National Guard
and supporting elements for all
of them.
1t would authorize a personnel
strength of $4,000 for the Reg
ular Air Force. 100000 for the
Air National Guard and SOC, 900
Cor the Air Reserve.
Secretary Given Choice.
The Air Force would be au-
thorized to have up to $4,000
serviceable aircraft, including re-
serves but exclusive Of guided
missiles, or 225,ooo tons Of planes,
whichever the Secretary Of the
Air Force decided was more de-
sirable.
The Secretary would be autho-
rized to procure $500 planes. or
42,500 tons of them, each year to
replace unserviceable or obsolete
planes.
OF this. the House Armed
Services Committee stated:
/ TT is the view of the committee
that this section is one of the
most significant and important
in the proposed legislation, for it
authorizes the annual procure
ment of a sufficient number of
aircraft to maintain an Air Force
in being sufficiently modern to
-%1ndertake sustained combat op-
erations against any aggressor
pa ton"
+ Proponents .of an actual TO-
group Air Force believe that If
the bill authorizing 1t becomes
law. it will be easier to assure
approval of appropriations sum-
cient to cover the cost.
At present, the Air Force con-
sists of SO groups. not all At full
strength. Mr.. Truman's budget
proposals for the fiscal year be-
ginning July 4 contemplate 4 49,
group force.
Goal Set in 1883.
Procurement and replacement
plans based on a 70-group author
ization call for 81 groups at full
strength during this year.
The goal of 10 full-strength
groups will be reached by 1853.

Chairman Vinson Of the House
Armed Services Committee has
this idea On money for the next
fiscal year.
He points out that while Mr..
Truman asked funds for only a
48-group Air Force. he also asked
$500. .000. 900 for Z universal mill
tary training program. Nothing
will be done about UNIT in this
session Of Congress. Mr.. Vinson
insists. That $500. .0oo, 900 he sug-
gests, could be transferred to the
Air Force appropriation and
largely would cover the difference
between the 4S-group force and
the years proposed procurement
toward IN eventual 7o-group
strength.
The Army section of the bill
establishes the peacetime person.
nel strength Of the Regular Army
at 837 900, plus 100000 in the Ma
tional Guard and $4,000 in the
Army Reserve. This Is the same
figure as stated In the present
Selective Service Act, scheduled
to expire In June. 1850, unless
renewed.
Act Of 1915 Set Limit.
The last permanent statute de-
fining the strength Of the Army
was the National Defense Act Of
1916, as revised in 1920. The total
stated was 100000 officers and
enlisted men.

constitute a grave weakness in
our national democratic armor.
No Special Privileges
"The Negro asks no special
treatment or privilege. He asks
only the same treatment as his
white fellow-citizens. He asks only
that the individual Negro. as an
American. be given the same OPP
portunity to find his level in the
society as his fellow-man; that he
be judged and accepted on his
merit alone, without the handicap
of race.
Certainly the costs of anti
racial or anti-religious practices
are enormously high. Attitudes of
bigotry, when widely prevalent in
society. involve staggering costs
in terms of prestige and conf
dence throughout the rest of the
world, not to mention the con-
tamination and degradation re-
sulting from the presence of such
psychological diseases in the body
of the society. In this atomic day
and age such attitudes and prac-
tees are not only immoral; they
may well prove to be suicidal.
Has Optimism
Because I believe in the reason
and essential goodness of human
beings; because l have deep re-
spect for and faith in my fellow
man. look to the, future of race
relations in our country with rea-
sonable optimism. know that
there are very many men and
women of goodwill in both the
South and the North, that their
ranks increase daily, that their
influence is being widely felt, and
that this influence is gradually
clearing away the race-relations
fog which has enshrouded u.s." he
concluded.
