sion when he was not on his feet,
speaking at length. 1t has been
stated that his speeches took up
more space in the Congressional
Record than those of any other
Senator in years.
Naturally, during the campaign
Senator Morse's bolt got great
deal of publicity-especially as he
followed it up by series of bitter
speeches denouncing the Republi-
can party as "reactionary" and its
candidates as captives of the pred
atory interests, or words to that
effect. But the overwhelming
victory of General Eisenhower,
which included carrying Oregon by
the almost unprecedented majority
of 152,887, greatly reduced Mr..
Morse's publicity value and eX-
hibited him as wholly Intellectual in
his own State. There remained the
question of how effectual he would
be in a Senate composed Of AZ Re
publicans. II Democrats and one
Independent.
The answer to that question is
that he is as Intellectual in the
Senate now the election is over as
he was in Oregon or in the coun-
try during the campaign. True, he
got certain amount of publicity
by carrying a metal chair with
him on the day the Senate con
vened aad placing it in the middle
aisle as evidence of his independ-
ence. The Republicans, however,
had no idea of taking his seat

gard Nh. Morse as well-meaning
bat misguided man, which seems
to size him up. He isn't going to
be distracted or diverted by Mr..
Morse and certainly he is not 90
ing to hate him. This is hard luck
Tor Mr.. Morse. 1t leaves him with
nothing to do save orate-and he
isn't first grade as an orator In
the end he seems doomed to be-
come generally recognized as the
No. Senate bore. BY many he is
already viewed as having attained
that eminence.

Lesson for March s, 1858

WHAT is this parable of the
w foolish virgins" all about?
DR. Wehrli of Eden Seminary
makes a simple straightforward
suggestion. The story has to do
with emergency, the unexpected
and how to meet il. If everything
had gone according to plan, the
foolish virgins would not have been
in trouble. They had all the oil
they thought they would need.
When they set out. il was the
wise virgins who looked foolish.
Why carry those extra TASKS Of
oil? Wasn't it enough to carry a
lamp without being bothered with
oil besides? But when the hours
wore on and on. those extra TASKS
did not lock so foolish The wise
virgins We're ready for the uneX-
pected the foolish were not.

count on. Disease or death may
enter the home unannounced.
Temptation may lift its ugly head
among the flowers of our happi-
ness. The person who goes through
life prepared only for what he
expects, will find himself in the
dark. Only by being prepared for
what we don't expect, can we
rise to life's emergencies.
But how can we prepare for
what we don't expect? OF course
we can't prepare in detail for the
unforeseen. What we can manage
to have is d reservoir of strength:
for physical emergencies reserves
of health; for neral emergencies,
reserves of character: for spiritual
emergencies, reserves Of faith.

The Unexpected Is The Test

When there is big fire, or some
extraordinary disaster like a
bombing or an explosion, the po-
lice Of great city will send re-
serves to the stricken area to
guard against looters. Now as Dr.
WehrH says. the police aren't spe-
cially worried about ordinary
criminals.
But the people who do the loot
ing at fires are the ordinary peo-
pie, who in ordinary situations
wouldn't think of stealing. They
are honest enough for all routine
situations. They would not think
of breaking a door down in order
to steal But when fire or an
earthquake opens the door, and
the lights go out. then these hon
est people turn into thieves. They
don't have the reserves of char
acter to carry them through the
moral emergency.

President Launches
Trade Study; Seeks
Acceptable Solution
By the Assoeiuied Press

President Eisenhower says the
economic health of the United
States and of the free world
depends largely on a new effort
to find an acceptable" way to
promote world trade.
On that serious note the Presi-
dent yesterday launched a IT.
man commission on a study
aimed at hammering out new
recommendations for Congress
on the politically touchy trade
tariff issue.
mo group of citizens has been
called to a higher mission than
the one on which you are set
ting forth today" Gen. Eisen-
hover told the Foreign Economic
Policy Commission in the White
House cabinet room.
above all, I urge you to fol-
low one guiding principle: What
is best in the national interest. ;"
Both Gen. Eisenhower and
Commission Chairman Clarence
E. Randall, president of Inland
Steel Co., noted that the COM
mission will have it's problems.
Some members are Staunch
advocates of lower tariffs and re-
duced trade barriers, to help
foreign allies sell more goods
here and help the United States
sell more products abroad.
Other members are just as

DIR. DAVID RUHE

Throwing down his glove as a
symbol of the gauntlet, DR.. Da-
vid Ruhe challenged his World
Religion Day audience to inves-
tigate the Baha'i World Faith
which he called "the Word of God
refreshed for this age" The Glen
coe physician spoke at the Ba~
hal Center Sunday afternoon, Jan
18.
AS the scientist begins with
assumptions which he tests, DR..
Ruhe asked that these four hypo-
theses be tested. /. God is exis-
tent. 2. Divine geniuses, called
prophets are the sources of know
ledge about God. 3. Religion
changes from age to age, evolving
to stimulate mans progress. 4.
Man is organically one and must
be unified in all realms if we are
to have peace. "There are few
people who would not accept
these" he said. "These are the
basic tenets of the Baha'i Faith.
Go further. Read. Search. Pray.
Mediate, Investigate"
Showing a model brain encased
in clear plastic, he pointed out
the frontal lobes where the intel
lectual battles of man take place,
where decisions between right and
wrong are made. He called for
the development of high char

TINE Korean War, unlike Willie and Joe's
IL World War H. was almost completely
devoid of humorous touches But, while fly
ing an airlift plane home, heard story of
screwban heroism which ranks with the
classic off-beat exploits of any war
This incredible tale comes from First
Lieutenant Mathew Montee, who COM
manded the first American tank to hit Korea.
1t was in Taegu and the Lieutenant's
tank outfit was bivouacked in schoolhouse,
their two tanks camouf1aged in the school
yard Since their position was some distance
from the front at the time, they were puz-
zled at the sound of couple of tanks
approaching at high speed - nobody ex-
pected reinforcements.
Their puzzlement deepened when nobody
could identify their silhouettes. An officer
thumbed through an identification manual,
then yelled, Russian tanks!''
A Close One
ABOUT then the enemy tanks began sys-
tenlatically to shoot up the town, working
in decreasing circle of which the school,
house was roughly the center The Yanks
were hopelessly trapped; it was certain
death to try to get their own tanks under
way.
Huddled on the schoolhouse floor were
two CTS, whom we'd better call Spic and
Span, since, according to Montee, they were
anything but.
Spic, who was second assistant" cook
permanently assigned to KIP, was pouring
a cup of coffee for his buddie, Span, who was
second assistant" armorer general grease
monkey. The impact of an enemy SHE'LL
landing close by, knocked the cup from
Spies hand and he spilled coffee on Span.
