any further attempt for a meet

circus leaves town."
Senator Nicely was nettled by
the Macarthur situation which
he had scored bitterly on the Sem

West Virginia Democrat said he
would postpone also any efforts to
get Senate consideration of his
resolution to bring the Washing
ton home rule bill to the Sen
ate floor.

a limited form Of self-government
for the District recently was buried
by District Committee tie vote

The Nicely resolution to dis
charge the District Committee
from jurisdiction over the home
rule bill was slated to come ur
for consideration on the Senate

give the same all-out production

American people would give
There is no question but that
prices of farm commodities are
rising. During the past few
weeks such crops, as wheat, corn,
soybeans and hogs were crowd
ing the parity figure, where
they could be controlled under
the law.
Here is the picture: if farmers
are making money now on $21
hogs, they could continue to
make money if prices on every
thing they bought was frozen at
comparative prices. The only
other out, is to permit the price
of hogs to soar to $31 as happen
ed during the last war, and pay
the difference in subsidies, which
is costly and must eventually be
paid for in taxes. However, if
prices can be pegged, and at
least costly subsidies avoided,
then the farmers and every other
taxpayer would be better off.
There is no question but that
the farmer would rather not
have subsidies. He has been
traditionally opposed to such a
plan, preferring to get his fair
price in the market place. But
if farm prices are not controlled
and are permitted to rise under
the law of demand, folks simply
could not afford to buy pork
over the counter from $31 hogs.
Hence the subsidy system dur
ing the last war. President Tru-
man has said he will seek
amendment to the act to permit
control of farm commodities at
fair prices.
The battle over the nations
foreign policy was started in the
first week of the new 82nd con-
gress, even before the President
had delivered his state of the
union message. Sen. Robert A
Taft of Ohio made his pitch as

tioning the Presidents con-
stitutional right to send troops

Atlantic Treaty while the nation
is not in a state of declared war

Having made an appointment
with a top executive of one of
Americas largest corporations,
l arrived at his office at the
scheduled time. His secretary ad-
vised me that his last appoint
ment had not yet cleared and
asked me to wait a few minutes.

Honesty compels me to say
that ! was slightly irked, but
the following day came an
apology and explanation which
warmed the cookies of my heart.
1t seems that just before the
hour of my date, the widow of
recently deceased employee
had put in an appearance. This
heartless (?) executive had drop
ped everything, had cast his
business appointments aside and
was doing his best to console
and counsel his grief-stricken
and distraught visitor.
This interested me strangely
and l developed burning desire
to know all the details. / made
it my business to contact several
employees. AS the story unfold
ed it got better and better.
Among other things . I learned
that their departed o-worker
had been seriously i'll with an
incurable malady and away
from his job for many months
before his death. The heartless
CD corporation had kept him
on full pay and maintained his
pension and death benefit rights.
One thing that particularly
pleased me was something the
heartless CD executive said in
the course of his explanation for
failing to keep his appoint
ment: "You know, | just had to
spend the time with this lady.
Her husband worked for me for
many years and was a loyal and
efficient employee. 1t was the
least could do FOR a departed
friend"
Bearing in mind that for
many months this employee had
not been physically able to
render any service and was now
irrevocably lost to the corpor-
alton, one can readily realize
just how hard-boiled CD this
executive is and what an evil
CD monster is the corporation
that employs him.
But what impressed me most
profoundly about the episode
was the comment of one of the
employees I interviewed. 1t was:
There is nothing unusual about
this. / could tell you of scores
of similar things l have obsern-
ed during the years have been
with this company"
All of this leads me to one
conclusion, to wit: The Commies,
Socialists, "Production-For-U Use
Not-Profit" proponents and
other enemies of our American
Capitalistic System are wrong in
their charge that all big cor
porations are souless and all the
executives who manage them
ruthless, hard boiled slave
drivers, with ice-water coursing
through their veins instead of
blood.

forces in Europe may prevent
such a strike, and therefore may
prevent war.
Some observers here say that
Taft's position is hairsplitting,
since the senate has approved the
Atlantic treaty, it is now the law
of the land, the President has
more than 100 years of precedent
behind him, and troops are no
more an implementation of the
treaty than the sending of tanks,
guns, ships or planes. There is,
however, no question but that
this country will get tougher
with our allies in Europe on the
question of arming themselves.
1t did not take long for the
Republican southern Democrat
coalition to show its hand in
control of this new congress. In
the senate the election of Sen.
Ernest w. Mcfarland of Arizona
as Democratic leader was notice
from the southern branch of
the Democratic party that all
future social security or civil
rights measures would be
thrown into the discard.

Every thing that falls under its
rays is new gilt. So does the
lover see all natural things quite
new.
Take for instance the image
of the Withering plant that is
dying of drouth. The suns rays
have parched it; the roots have
searched and searched for
moisture in soil that grows
every day harder and harder
and drier. The plant willis and
hangs its head. 1t is fainting and
ready to die, when down comes
the rain in murmuring
multitude of distilled rain drops,
the purest thing alive, and
brings it to life Under that
baptism the plant lifts itself up.
1t drinks and rejoices. In the
night it reneWs itself in strength.
Renewed by the rain and sun
it takes on new life.
So l have known a man bat
tered by hard life and eXcesses
in living. l have seen love come
to such a man and take him and
cleanse him and set him on his
feet; and from him burst forth
flood of color and Splendor-
CREATIVE WORK.
Another image might be the
abr pthat stands by itself in
golden aloofness. Then comes
the beautiful arms, the curving
fingers that pluck at the strings,
and the air is filled with melody
the harp begins to live, and
thrilling is the music.
Then comes the lady with the
key, in she steps; the windows
are opened, fresh air ruShes in,
the lamps and the fire are lit,
so that light fills the windows
and doors. The tables are set,
there is the sound Of footsteps;
and more footsteps. The house

o, like a queens her happy
tread
And like a queen her golden

But 0 at last, when all is said,
Her womans heart for me.
We wondered where the river

Meath oaks that muSed and
pines that dreamed,
A wild thing of the woods she
seemed,
So proud, and pure, and free
All heaven drew nigh to
hear her sing,
When from her lips her soul
took wing;
The oaks forgot their ponder
ing,
The pines their revere.
And o, her happy queenly

But o, her heart, when all is

al DAY OF ACTIYITY

Having told of the beginning
of our Lords ministry, Mark
writes of an early great day in
Capernaum, the place which is
written of in one passage as his
"own city" For some time he
made his headquarters therein
the home of Simon Peter. He
went into the synagogue and
taught, impressing the people as
one who spoke with authority.
After the synagogue service,
Jesus, with James and John,
went home with Simon and An
drew. Simon's mother-in-law
was with a fever; Jesus took her
hand and raised her up, and the
fever left her. And she arose and
ministered unto the guests.
This early healing was follow
ed by many restoration, as on
a notable evening at sunset there
were brought unto him many
that were sick and many who
were possessed with devils, and
Jesus healed them. 1t is record
ed that the whole city gathered
together at the door.
The next morning, a great
while before day, Jesus went out
into a desert place and prayed.
Surely that was great day
filled with all the blessings that
we associate with Jesus -
preaching, healing, and his seek
ing support in prayer. That not
able day should lead us to him
for the miracle of the healing
of our own souls. And may we
be inspired to share with him
in his work of love.
