This Rock

By Bill Glib

Percy Curry, foreman of The

an argument the other day when
he said that "the thing wrong with
politicians today is that they need
to become more Christianlike."

angle of his statement because as
far as I'm concerned there is only
one kind of politician-(don't ask
me to interpret that sentence).
However, when it comes to Chris

there are Christians.
There are the missionaries who

sweaty clothing on all the natives,
and then proceed to run around in
shorts preaching the Gospel. Thee
are the kind of guys who would
make better emissaries for Russia
than they do for Christianity.
And of course, there are the true
missionaries who live the kind of
life they preach. Teaching by ex.

this type of Christian that I think
Percy had in mind when he was
speaking politicians.
1t isn't just the politicians that
fail when it comes to teaching by

One of the most consistent com.

this is particularly disappointing

THE DANGER OF PARTIsANsHIp

President Eisenhower, in warning recently against
extreme partsanshp, had in mind the adverse effects
which could result in bitter partisan strife in this
Ion Of Congress- Most observers thought the President
was warning Republicans not to overdo the Communist
ISSUE especially in attempt to convince the ordinary
citizen that the Government was honeycombed with
Communists when the Republicans took over in January
1858.
The Republican President also, no doubt, had in
mind some Democrats who have been making highly
partisan speeches of late. Warning against extreme par
sanship, the President attempting prevent chaotic
condition from developing in the House and Senate
which could have serious adverse effects on the United
States economy.
Knowing well that the next few months might be
critical period in the nations economy President Eli
senhower would head off much bitterness as he could
in Congress, since the Republican majority is the slim
NEST OF majortes, and since bitter partisan atmos-
phere on Capitol Hill could wreck the Administrators
program.
If economic developments continue to strain the
economy the President may need all the cooperation he
get on Capitol HILL To maintain an atmosphere on
the Hill which would be conducive to such cooperation
was one of the purposes of the Presidents appeal
legislators not to adopt the tactics of extreme partsans
1t is to be hoped that members of both parties will
heed his suggestion and refrain from overstating the
truth He believes the facts and only the facts should be
used in political speechmaking and he depores the
tendency of some politicians to do bit of sensational
izng while criticizng the party of their opponents

sides on the subject. There are
only two local dining places which
seem to invariably please tourists
and l thought the owners of the
other places might appreciate
hearing this criticism so that they
could improve their service. Visi-

the quality. At the same time,
local citizens seldom criticize quail

Fanatical Puerto Riesns
1t is unfortunate that a handful
Of fanatics from Puerto Rico can
give their island such bad name.
1t is also unfortunate that there
are enough ignorant people in the
States who are willing to condemn
all Puerto Ricans for the action
of a few gun-shooters in the ma
tons capitol.
Down this way, we are fairly
used to hearing about our Latin
neighbors expressing their politi-
cal feelings with violence. 1t was
only two years ago today that

though physical violence is COM
mon in Latin politics, it is usually
displayed for some purpose other
than pure terrorism. Harum-sca-

against Truman and in the House

a Communist infiltration.
