Surely God will not hear vanity,
neither will the Almighty regard
it.-(JOb XXXV, 13.)
Vanity leads US into wilfulness,
pridefulness, and selfshness; it
will harden our hearts toward the
weakness and the need of others.
Worst of all, vanity tends to make
US feel that we can do without God.
and such an assumption can only
lead to unhappiness and disaster.

II in Illinois Prison Riot
Indicted for KIDNAPPING
By The Associated Press

CHESTER, ILL.,, Mar. 4.-Eleyen
Menard Prison inmates de-
scribed as ringleaders in two
riots there last fall have been in
dicted for kidnapping by a Ran
dolph County grand jury.
The indictments were re-
turned Monday, but arraignment
was delayed today until next
Tuesday before Circuit Court
Judge Quentin Spivey.
The kidnapping charges are an
outgrowth of an October mutiny
by 339 prisoners at Menard.
Seven guards were seized by re-
belling convicts in that disturb
ance.
Former Gov. Adlai Stevenson
interrupted his presidential cam
paign to direct the issuing of a
surrender ultimatum. Massed
police fired two warning shots
and the rioting convicts ended
their rebellion and released their
hostages unframed.

member of the Senate Foreign
Relations Committee, said:
1T looks like Stain is out OF
the picture. I'm rather afraid
we may be prone to expect toe
much. It's not safe for us to
count on a disruption of. things
within the Politburo. They may
have things better organized
than we know. Certainly we can
not afford any letup on our own
part"
Said Mr.. Vorys:
"The Kremlin has called the
shots all along and all of them
are prisoners of the Kremlin.
There may be a temporary
period Of quiet while the sue
cessor to Stain was getting him
Selft adjusted, but in the long
run wouldn't expect much
change"
House Majority Leader Halleck
said:
II would hope that with con-
troll passing to other hands we
might expect a more reasonable
attitude on the part of Soviet

probably just as fatal.
The Soviet leader, the doctor
said, might conceivably linger
for several days. "but his age Is
against him" The fact that his
blood pressure is so high-220
over 120-"indicates that he has
been suffering from high blood
pressure for some time. and that
this is the cause of his stroke"
The doctor said hemorrhage

first the motor centers of the
brain which control movement.
These are located on the left side
for the right arm and leg, on the
right side for the left arm and

speech is on the left. AS the
