Double Polio Drive To Open

The March of Dimes campaign in Noble county starts

nfantle Paralysis to carry its fight against the only
epidemic disease still on the increase in America.

This Week
i'm
Washington

There has been considerable
confusion during this past week
insofar as American industry is
concerned over ALLEGATION and
control of scarce production ma
terials such as steel, copper and
aluminium. Reason is that there
is more than one two-headed or
gansim in the department of
commerce.
Down in the basement of the
department building there is a
two-headed turtle in the aquari-
UNI whose time is taken up in
deciding which way to move.
Elsewhere in the department
there is a figurative two-headed
executive-Mr. Manly Fleisch-
mann, who act in a dual capacity
as director of the national pro-
duction authority and as admin
strator of the defense production
administration. Mr.. Fleisch-
mann's boss in the first instance
as NPA director is Mr.. Charles
Sawyer, secretary of commerce.
The Fleischmann boss in the
second instance in DPA is Mr..
Charles E. Wilson, director of the
office of defense mobilization.
Oftimes Mr.. Fleischmann as
boss of NPA and as boss of DPA
finds himself moving in opposite
directions, for decisions made in
NPA for ALLEGATION of materials,
and which must be approved by
Sawyer, are sometimes in con-
flict with decisions made in DPA
which is policy making, and
must be approved by Wilson.
And Mr.. Sawyer has been known
to drag his feet in favor of big
business when it comes to policy
of corralling materials for DPA
and the defense production.
Especially is this true in al
locating materials for small busi-
ness, which even under the con-
trolled materials plan, find them
selves going to suppliers with
orders for material and finding
no material available. Mr.. Fleis-
chmann is considered an able
administrator, but despite his
ability, it is difficult to make a
decision in NPA which must be
approved by Sawyer and then
reverse himself on the same de-
cision in DPA, which must be
approved by Wilson.
In the meantime, President
Truman has set tongues wagging
because of his unexpected re-
turn to Washington from Key
West where he cut short his
vacation about a week and des-
pite presidential denialS there are
continued rumors of some i'm
pending "emergency' and stories
that the President is finally
aroused over revelations of
wrongdoing in his administration
and will soon take dramatic
action to clean house.
The move toward elimination
of price controls is growing,
fostered by such organizations as

A Call To Prayer
and Repentance

Let us listen to call to pray
er and repentance by the Hebrew
prophet Joel, chapter 2, verse Is.
BLOW the trumpet in Zion,
sanctify a fast, call a solemn as
sembly: gather the people, sane
tify the congregation, assemble
the elders, gather the children,
and those that suck the breasts:
let the bridegroom go forth out
of his chamber, and the bride out
of her closet. Let the priests, the
ministers of the Lord, weep be-
tween the porch and the altar,
and let them say, Spare thy
people, o Lord, and give not thy
heritage to reproach, that the
heather should rule over them:
wherefore should they say among
the people, Where is their God?"
Israel was going through a
destructive drouth; we are going
through a spiritual drouth. They
had famine of bread; we are
having famine of the Word of
God. God was displeased with
Israel because they had forsak-
en- Him and worshipped idols. In
like manner we have forsaken
Him and become wicked. Like
Gods ancient people, we ought
to return to Him, even with
| weeping and fasting and mourn
ing. Our whole nation ought to
have day of prayer and repent
ance. To pray for the success of
our armies is not enough. Bullets
and bombs will not save us. God
alone can save us now. We have
offended the Almighty, and we
must repent. Let us humble our
selves under the mighty hand OF
God, and He will lift us up
(James 4:10).-John Grimes,
