icksOn said, increase the readiness
of the National Guard.
Proud Record
The Guard, the Bureau Chief
stated. points to a proud record of
service in every way of this nation.
In World War I, a large part of
the AEF was made up of National
Guard troops; in World War II, IS
combat divisions and several thou
sand other Guard units fought over
seas. During the Korean emergency
8 infantry divisions, hundreds of
other National Guard units and 66
tactical sQuadrons of the Air Ma
tiOnal Guard were ordered into
Federal service.
The troop basis of the National
Guard presently consists Of % in
fantry and five armOred divisions,
16 regimental combat teams and
several thousand combat and SER
vice support units. These units are
organized in every state and the
territories under control in peace
time of the Governors of the re-
spective states. The proposed re-
serve plan would not change the
historic militia concept of the Guard
or in any way lessen state control
of Guard units.
1--WE in the Guard" General Err
icksOn declared, "are realistic
enough to admit that under the
present system not all Guard units
can achieve the degree of combat
readiness d e ira able. However,
through a sound school program,
designed to increase the profession

officers and enlisted specialists and
the new all component training
program which trains Guard un-

army units, the National Guard
maintains a high degree Of efficien-

1000 Hear Eisenhower
AT Temple Dedication

President Eisenhower last night
declared the spiritual rights given
man by God must be respected by
an Americans.
The President spoke at a serv-
ice dedicating the new Washing
ton Hebrew Congregation temple,
Massachusetts, avenue and Ma
comb street NV.
ANY true American must rec
ognize in another American those
rights endowed by God, becStse
If he doesn't he is not true to the
concepts of the men who wrote
the Declaration Of Independ-
ence," Mr.. Eisenhower asserted.
1T is not enough to know that
God gave those rights to you and
your neighbor," he continued. 1T
is well to remember this also. You
may not protect those rights only
for yourself. You must protect
them for all, or your own will be
lost"
Mr.. Eisenhower told the 1000
persons present that some men,
bers of the congregation had
voiced "amazement" that the
President of the United States
shoud attend a service of a faith
not his own and, in spite of other
preoccupations, come both to the
religious service and the dedica-
ton of this great temple"
II personally think that this
is natural" the President said
There is nothing unique nor
particularly extraordinary about
1t. This country is a spiritual
organism"
y. He later observed that the
President of the United States is
"after all. the official head OF
q great Nation that is religious
IN its background and which has
q spiritual foundation on which
TO stand"
Mr.. Eisenhower drew laughter
when he inserted the word
temporarily after noting he
came to the dedication in his
capacity as official head
temporarily-of this country"
The dedication ceremony fol-
lowed the regular Sabbath wor-
ship. conducted by Rabbi Nor
man Gerstenfeld, spiritua,

says television has increased
reader interest in newspapers.
Mr.. Brown spoke on THE Fu-
ture of the Press" at the 46th
annual journalism banquet of
the University of Missouri last
night.
Three prominent newspaper
men received medals Of honor
from the university for distin-
guished service to journalism.
They are Walter C. johnson
of Chattanooga, Tenn, retired
secretary-manager of the South
ern Newspaper Publishers Asso-
citation; Carroll B. Larrabee,
chairman of Printers Ink Pub
fishing Co., New York, and Hugh
B. Terry, president and general
manager of radio Station KLZ

Editorial honors also were
given to three newspapers, the
Neue Zuercher Zeitung of Zurich
Switzerland; the Omaha CNebr.) }
World-Herald and the st. Jo-
seph tMo.) News-Press and Ca
Zette.
Television coverage of an
event, Mr. Brown said, whets the
appetite of the viewer, who then
wants a more detailed account
Of what he has seen.
"Newsmen have met this chal-
lenge," said Mr.. Brown, with
better coverage of big stories.
This has paid off for newspapers
and in 1854 total newspaper cir
culation reached an all-time
high. for the first time going

said in his dedication address
that I'VE have an intersectarian
rather than a nonsectarian
community because the aims
and ideals Of America are rooted
in great common religious ideas.
when the first Jewish set
tiers came to America 800 years
ago they came to a land that
included diverse religious groups.
This very diversity created the
concept Of a free church in a
free church. We have freedom
for religion in America because
the religion of the American
settlers was a force for human
freedom"
Others speaking at the cere-
mony included DR.. Maurice N.
Eisendrath, president Of the
Union of American Hebrew Con-
gregations; Ralph E. Samuel,
national chairman of the Amer
ican Jewish Tercentennary. and
Irving M. Engel, president Of the
American Jewish Committee.
Municipal Court Judge Milton
S. Kronheim, jr., president of
the congregation, also spoke.
President Truman placed the
cornerstone of the new temple
at a ground breaking service in
November, 1852. The structure
seats more than 1900 persons in
its auditorium. It also has 81
classrooms for the religious
school and a social hall seating
500 persons.
The congregation, founded in
1852. operates under a charter
granted by Congress. The char
ter was signed by President
Franklin Pierce. In 1897, Presi-
dent Mckinley took part in the
ceremonies placing the corner
stone of the congregation's
former home at 816 Eighth street
NV.
Services have been held in the
temple for several months, but
