Tb0Mgbfs on Life
The Jamestown
Thanksgiving
By DR.. JOHN HOLLAND

TO the contrary. We all speak of the
First Thanksgiving after the Pilgrims
landed at Plymouth Rock.
The facts seem to be that. at least
10 years before the landing of the Pill
grims, the Colony of Englishmen estab-
liShed home in Virginia.
In two years, or in 1910, they recorded
population of some $500 souls" It
was in May of this same year, after a
starvation winter, only 60 of the colo
niStS were alive. Fear was in their
hearts lest they should all perish as had
all the members of Raleigh's settlement
on Roanoke Island. After solemn con-
ference, they decided to set sail back
TO England in two little boats that they
deemed to be seaworthy.
And then it happened They had sailed
but very short distance when they
saw three vessels coming toward them
These boats were carrying more colo
niSts and we're loaded with ample sup
plies.
Needless to say, the starving colonists
were glad to turn back.
Divine Providence
Upon their return to Jamestown they
proclaimed session of prayer and
thanksgiving. Together they voiced
their gladness that Divine Providence
had oiUa, fhay,, ba1,, ~ ,,,o;,,to;o:,,os
their foothOld in the New World. So
this was the first Thanksgiving by Eu-
rOpean colonists in America.
However, this does not take away any
glory from the Pilgrims historic
Thanksgiving at Plymouth.
In fact, it makes it all the more nee
eSsary for us, after these three and
more centuries, to take stock of the
faith of the men and women who trav-
eled farther than they knew, and builded
better than they knew They had the
kind of stuff in them that Almighty God
could use.
1t is one thing to praise the faith and
courage of the colonistS. It is another
thing to face our modern problems
with the sublime faith by which they
made their ways in the American wild
erness
There are some things we could well
do to perpetuate the kind of living those
brave people established
Work or Starve
They were workers. They had to
work or Starve. He who does not work
shall not eat," was the Scripture they
practiced. America has ever been a
working land Only recently have we
tried to water down this idea, to our
shame.
They were religious people Not that
they were perfect. There were some
''scalawags" among them, but not
many ne'er-do-wells. By fireside and
by altar side, they voiced their faith in
God and set His Commandments high
in their mode of life
They were free men. We talk of our
-four freedoms" They had the es-
sence of them all in their courageous
front TO the future. They early re-
sented the oyerlordship of the mother
country for every obstacle and tax
which was set before them. The spirit
of the Revolution was in them. 1t never
died down in their hearts. The flower
ing of this resolution finally broke the

jurisdiction laid out for our legislators in the
Constitution.
Our Founding Fathers set up system und-
er which Congress is given the job of making
the laws and approprating the money. The
President is in charge of the Departments
that are supposed to administer and enforce
the laws.
The authority of Congress to investigate
anything and everything is based on the COM
mon sense that legislators should have the
full facts before they legislate. Lately, how
ever, Congress has been using this power Of
investigaton-not in any attempt to lay the
foundation for legislatiOn-but in an attempt
to substitute its administrative judgment for
that of the President.
Certainly, the proposal put forward by
Senator Mccarthy, apparently in all serious
ness, that young G.. David Schine. age 26,
should be given the job of checking for Com
munist propaganda in text books being used
at the United States Military Academy is a
case in point. A normal citizen, it seems to
us, could assume that Army Counter Intelli-
gence is taking care of this one.
Now, of course, the Senate is reduced to
the unhappy plight of investigating its own
investigators.
When this session Of Congress is over, we
suspect that many Senators will be claiming
that a good many constructive bills now be-
fore Congress were neglected because ''there
just wasn't time to get to them"
Until the Senators have whipped few of
their legislative problems-what to do about
unemployment and underempoyment, for ex-
ample-we think after this one they should
stick closer to their legislative knitting It's
a point well worth investigating -From THE
MACHINIST.
The people's voice. [volume] (Helena, Mont.) 1939-1969, 1954-05-07

Talk about circuses There never has been
anything like this Mccarthy whingding
since they sat the midget on J. P. Morgan s
lap.
Nothing about this investigation makes
much sense to us except as an investigation
to end all Investigations. Here's prosecut-
ing attorney from Tennessee who appears to
be making up rules for the hearing as he goes
along. Here's the Secretary of the Army and
a United States Senator being warned public
ly that they can be put in jail for lying under
oath. Here's a cropped photograph to prove
a curious point. Here's a Senator fiibuster-
ing a hearing into charges of his own mis-
conduct with speeches poorly disguised as
points of order, with grand stand plays and
extraneous charges.
And, when it's all over what? Is any SEN
ate Committee going to vote that any United
States Senator used improper pressure to Sc
cure an Army commission for rich, young
friend? Is any Republican majority of Sen
ate Committee going to vote that President
Eisenhower'S Secretary of the Army is guilty
of lying?
O, brotherl And the newspapers used to
talk about the mess in Washington under
Harry Truman.
If this spectacle doesn't hurt the reputa-
ton of the United States among our foreign
friends, it will be only because this one is
plainly beyond comprehension and under
standing. Many countries look to us for guild
ance and pattern for good government Ger
tainly, this investigation is nothing we can
hold up as an example for other nations to
follow
What's happened, Of course, is that for
some time Congress has been broadening the

Stockholm Family counseIing- Bureau
Works to Halt Rise in Divorce Rate

STOCKHOLM (by airmaiD -
In Sweden as in many other coun-
tries the divorce rate has risen
sharply in recent years, In 1858
about $500 divorces were granted,
compared with $500 ten years
ago, and today one out of seven
marriages ends in divorce. Sew
eral factors have contributed to
this development. One of the most
important is the rapid urbaniza-
ton, which involves population
movements on considerable
scale. Another is the growing ex-
tent to which married women
find e m p I'm n t outside the
home, which tends to give the
woman a greater sense of indie
pendence and may cause a feeling
of insecurity in the husband.
About Is per cent of all married
women in Sweden have outside
employment, and in Stockholm the
proportion is as high as 81 per
cent.
Disturbed by the rising divorce
rate, the City of Stockholm in
1851 opened a Family-Counseling.
Bureau, headed by DR.. Curt
Amark. 1t has a staff consisting
of five family counselors who
have had extensive practical eX-
perience following their -gradua-
ton from one of Sweden's Schools
of Social Work A pool of physi-
clans, gynecologists and psychia-
trists has been created to lend as
sistance when necessary.
In the three years OF it's ex-
istence the Bureau has handled
over 100 cases, and the annual
figure is steadily rising. AS al
ways in this type of work, it is
difficult to evaluate the final re-

suit DR.. Amark and his assistants,
however, have just completed
study of one hundred representa-
tive cases which have come be-
fore the Bureau. 1t was found that
one-third of these marriages had
ended in divorce, while the other
two-thirds were still in existence
not always successfully, but
satisfactory readjustment had
been made often enough to justi-
fly optimism and faith in the Bu-
reau's methods.
A new project, providing for
marriage courses and discussion
groups for engaged and newly
married couples, has recently been
launched by the Bureau. 1t is
hoped that many couples will thus
become better prepared for the
difficulties that sooner or later
beset a marriage and will not have
to turn to the Family Counseling
Bureau for assistance in later
years.
