Even to those who do not keep the highest
feast of Christianity, Easter spells faith and the
justification Of faith. AS the central fact of
the religion founded by Jesus of Nazareth. it
represents truth whose influence is historic.
He taught righteousness and mercy, fellowship
and peace, and when He died upon cross at
Golgotha those values were echpsed and de-
graded Tradition tells that He was entombed in
a garden for three long, sorrowful days. His
followers accepted His death as a finality.
When He rose, they were surprised, and at least
a few Of them doubted the reality Of the
Resurrection. Many question it now, nearly
two thousand years after the event. Probably
1t never will be believed universally.
Meanwhile, the ideals Of Christ survive and
are a force for good in the world. His example
also perSevereS. Each Easter proves the claim
which He has upon millions of people. Their
faith enrichS their own lives and those Of their
neighbors near and far. So it might be affirmed
that the triumph Of Jesus over the grave is
everybody's triumph. AS "the frst-fruits of
them that slept" He shows way toward victory
over, not death merely, but likewise all other
Illustrations, all other disasters. Life comes
again in Him in precept and principle. AS men
conform to His standard and obey His benefcent
commands, they merit survival and fulfillment
The civilization to which current generations

His law, by His teaching. Whatever is honest
and kindly friendly and harmonious and tran
quill in our earth today traces back in some
part to Jesus and to those who rejoiced to call
Him their Lord.
Of course, there are other PHILOSOPHERS
abroad, other doctrines current. Materialsm
has become religion of sort in this twen-
tieth century of the Christian era. It seriously
has been urged that nations can prosper on the
dogma of economic determinism." Whole sys-
TENS of governments and education have been
set up on strictly secular foundations, and they
have challenged the democracy of Jesus. We
see the results of the conflict all about us, not
merely in foreign fields where brave men die
for us, but here at home where thousands suffer
the penalties of greed and corruption, violence
and wanton destruction.
At Easter 1853 we each of us, regardless Of
class or creed or any other diversive circum-
stance, stand in need of more faith greater
: faith, more compelling faith in what conduces
to life more abundant and free. The Resurrec-
ton has significance in the measure of our
earnest imitation of Christ's blessed virtues.
Even pagan, seeing the miracle of spring on
every hand, must wish to believe in the power
of rebirth, and that wish in itself is evidence
of an inner divinity The alternative is what
sought to destroy Jesus and His mission-in
vain. It failed then, and we should labor and
hope together that it always will fail.

'InedibIe Wheat
James johnson.

Under our tariff law, If carload Of
wheat contains more than 80 per cent
of damaged kernels it is unfit for hu-
man consumption and is taxed at only
cents bushel instead of 81.
Millions of bushels of this legally
damaged wheat are imported from Can
ada each year. A little of it went to
the pigs, but according to the Cen:
eral Accounting Office great deal Of it
got ground into flour and much more
was mixed with Grade A American
wheat and shipped abroad under the
international wheat agreement. Thus

million dollar subsidy on grain intended

Prod From Monty

Field Marshal Montgomery Deputy Su-
preme Commander of Allied Forces in the North
Atlantic Treaty Organization, has spoken out
with typical and refreshing bluntneSs against
the inadequacies of the free worlds effort Ito
handle the cold war. or a hot war, If it comes"
AS he has told the National Press Club, his
views on this subject are his own and perhaps
fallible, but they are none the less worthy OF
the closest attention. To begin with, he be-
lieves that the Soviet program is positively
aggressive and that the Vests counterprogram
is negatively defensive-too much so to be as
effective as it should and must be- So he has
called for action, action now, to correct the
situation in order to insure that Red totali-
tarianism will not only be held in check but
also forced-eventually- abandon its drive
for global domination.
To that end, in a prodding mood, Lord
Montgomery has proposed a six-point program
to meet what he has described as the vital
needs" of the free world. The first point is for,
a stepped-up effort to bring about political
agreement and unity among the non-Sovlet
nations on how to deal with the cold war.
The second recommends the formation OF cen.
trail allied organization to execute an agreed
upon policy-including military policy-to coun-
ter the threat Of aggression on gtooot scale,
not just in Europe or Asia, but everywhere, ana
in q carefully fntegrated manner. His third
proposition is that there should be worked out,
through this central organization, master
plan, to cope with the present situation on al
continents and to be ready for genuinely effec-
tive defensive and offensive operations IN case
current tensions explode into great armed
! conflict. Fourth he has urged the closest
possible link-up, even at the cost Of sacrificing
some measure of national sovereigntieS, among
the countries menaced by the dominance
seeking Communist drive. Fifth, in connection
with that link-up, he has appealed for allied
solidarity and universal pooling OF resources
In both East and West. And finally, sixth, ne
has advocated an overhaul OF NATos ma
chinery to increase its efficiency.
Since he Is second in command to General
Ridgway in the NATO setup, Lord Montgomerys
sixth point is particularly worthy of attention.
In his opinion, the organization of the Atlantic
alliance is very much in need Of an overhaul
to rid it of serious excess OF committees, cor-
ferences, talk and paper work. and to streamline
it for quicker decision making and more prac-
tical action. His observations in that respect
may seem to some to be a bit on the exaggerated
side, but he is certainly well qualified to evaluate
weaknesses In the undertaking and point out
where improvements can be made in it.
In all probability. General Ridgway feels
much the same way about what can and should
be done to strengthen NATOs machinery AS
for the rest Of the Montgomery program, some
Of the points may ask for too much In the light
OF practical realities, but there can be no doubt
that the free world would be much better off,
and q lot safer, IL 1t moved forward along the
lines suggested by one Of its best and liveliest
solf4ers

local courts may retire only after 20 years Of
service There is no provision for retirement for
disability or advanced age, as there is in the
Federal district system. The Bar Association
is sponsoring a bill to amend the law so that
the city judges may retire after 10 years of
service If they have attained the age Of 70, and
SO that they may be retired for physical dis
ability, regardless of age or length of service.
1t is disservice both to the judges and to the
work of the court to keep judges on duty who,
through senility or illness, are unable to carry
proper share of the judicial burdens.
The bill favored by the association has been
introduced by Representative Hyde of Mary
land and has been referred to the House
District Committee for consideration. The legis
lation deserves favorable action by Congress.

Spires of the Spirit .r -5
Hork, From the 7 onb!

A dismal old hymn begins, "Hark,

was when, from the seat of the Scorn-
full, any Scoffer wanting to hang black
crepe on religion would quote that line.
The ridiculing inference was: Who
wants to hear anything from tomb?
There is, really. nothing to hear any,
way! For, hasn't silent as the tomb"
passed into common parlance?
Now the impression given by this
cynical attitude is that religion is a
sort of wet blanket, chilling all life's
exuberant joys. OF course, that idea
belongs in the same category of big
lies as does the Soviet sophistry that
religion is the opiate of the people,"
The fact is that unless there is some
reaSSuring voice from the tomb, and

Interpretation and meaning of that
which is sometimes called "the life

a flickering candle. If there is no word

A novel which was quite widely read

for one of it's characters a man who

PurceI Post Limits

The Republicans claim they wish to
reduce. Government spending. Still.
Representative Joel T. Broyhill, Repub-
lican, of Virginia has introduced bill
to restore the limitations of parcel post
to 100 inches in girth and length and
20 pounds in weight.
Does he know that the Post Once
is and has been operating in the red
due to low rates and competition with
private industry?
Certainly parcel post rates are
cheaper than other methods, but who
pays for the other extra charges due
to low rates? The taxpayers.
Large firms, such as dress companies
and suit makers, want the limitations
raised on parcel post so they can ship
cheaper and make more money from
the people, both by the profit Of their
business and the Government.
So reconsider. Mr.. Broyhill, and with
draw your bill and save money for your
fellow citizens. They elected you to
represent them, not rob them through
higher taxes.

Fond Farewell to Donohue

In retrospect. it is interesting to re-
call the grave misgivings entertained by
many people when F. Joseph Donohue

him fatty.
Mr. Donohue has set a standard Of

other Commissioners for the past dec
ade, and which may well serve as a
cogent challenge to succeeding Commits

One who has looked at life with kind,

len1S and possibilities across fruitful
years, puts it this way: Man may toll
and struggle and sweat for a better
order Of things upon the earth, but deep
in his heart he wants to know, Is all this
effort of mine rational? Is it leading
anywhere? Is it backed up and sane
toned by anything ultimate and eternal
in the order Of the universe?"
The most devastating Of all doubts
Is to question the nationality of the uni
verse and the worth of moral values.
The switch to turn on the lights along
all the toiling ways of the earth life is
on the other side of what we call death.
II there is no news from the tomb, then
Voltaire was justified in his final verdict
upon life. He called it "a bad Joke"
And SO was the dying actor who said:

is heard the Easter tidings from q tomb,
as through all this earthly dress are
bright shoots of everlastingness."

not by harried representatives of fear
haunted peoples talking of war or of
uneasy peace. It is not the chief topic
in skyscrapers or legislatures, or among
mammon-mad men rnanacled by the
tyranny of things. Yet, nevertheless,
the stop-the-press news is flash about
death. It is the momentous news that
death is dead. 1t is the earth-shaking
announcement that evil at its worst has
been defeated by good at its best. by the
Christ in loves white vesture Who
changed cross to throne and Who
emerged alive from an empty tomb.
The news from tomb is, as John
Masefield puts it: He who was "a poor,
broken down thing, dead on the cross, is
loose in the world, where neither Jew
nor Roman can stop His truth" It is
news from the tomb that led one of
Americas greatest philosophers and

dent, How do you really feel about life
after death?", to reply with deep emo

Father
When John and Susan were di-
yorced, the decree contained an or
der requiring John to pay Susan the
sum of 500 each month for the
support of their two minor child
rem, both of whom were under Is
years of age.
John paid the 500 each month
for a year. He then heard that
Susan had married again, so he dis
continued the monthly payments A
half year later he was served with
an order citing him into court for
contempt of court A warrant was
also issued and he was arrested and
charged with the felony of family
desertion. He protested bitterly
that he wasn't required to pay any
more since his former wife had
married again
Law Protects Children
When he appeared at the hearing
on the show cause order, he learned
that his understanding of the law
was faulty The court explained to
him that, although Susanhad mar
ried again, he was still the father of
his children and was responsible for
their welfare as he had ever BEEN
This would continue to be so un-
til the children became of age, un-
less the step-father should adopt
the children Therefore, because
Susan's second husband had not
adopted the children, John was still
liable for the support money pay
ments, and could be punished by the
court, even by Imprisonment, if ne
cessary, for his refusal to comply
with the court order.
