Proclaim Pride
In Your Faith
By DR.. JOHN HOLL4ND

AN OLD MINISTER friend of mine
who has reached the time. of retirement
wrote this which I want to pass on to
YOU. 1t has a true ring to it which may
do US all good.
He started with the verse: 81 am not
ashamed of the gospel of Christ for it
is the power of God unto salvation,
to everyone that believeth." (Romans
1:16)
ST am not an atheist nor an agnostic.
I am a Christian and proud of it. I
believe in a Christlike God, such God
as is revealed in the life and teachings
of our Lord I believe in Christian
civilization, where every person is
looked upon as possessing transcendent
and eternal value and where everyone
is to be accorded full rights and privi-
Ieges to live the most useful and most
meaningful life possible I believe in a
God who will give me power 20 triumph
over temptations and encouragement
which would drag me down.
Take stand for Truth
81 believe it is eminently worth
while to contend for righteousness, JUS
tice and truth in the world, and that
Heaven will reward those who thus
take their stand
81 am so thoroughly convinced of the
presence of the everlasting God in the
affairs of men that l refuse to become
panic-stricken when the sins and self
ish ambitions of the usurpers of au-
thority bring about destructive wars
and international chaos.
so sure am I of the life eternal that
even death is robbed of its sting, and
I go forward with courage undaunted.
II am SO proud of this faith that is
mine that I shall not hesitate to declare
it anywhere in any circumstance, in
any environment. by my deeds. by my
words. by my attitudes, and by every
outward manifestation of my life "

Evidence of Faith
IF we talked about our faith as much
as manufacturers do of their cosmetics;
if we were as conversant with respect
to our faith as we are about the wealth
err. if we proclaimed our religion as
our radios do our soap; if we discussed
our faith one-haIf as much as political
writer's discuss the next presidential
election; if we we're as proud OF our
faith as our children are of our new
poly-chrome cars; if we preserved in
our homes the sacred and sensible
practice of grace before our meals or
of family prayer at our firesides; if
we refused assent to moral wrongs be-
cause they are made legally popular;
if we tried to abet every good cause,
and loved the Christians whose doc
trines may differ slightly from our own
then, am sure we would give to the
world evidence of the faith of which
we may be proud.

Then he claimed in a speech
over his radio station that he
would have more powers as
Mayor than most people now
believe. He denounced Police
Commissioner Walter L. john
ston, outspoken against re-
establishment of the red light
district on famed Post Office

The Mayor-elect charged that
MIR. Johnston had permitted a
new red-light district to grow
beside the old district which was
abolished two years ago. Let's
not squabble about whether there
is a district on the east side or
the west side of Twenty-fifth

fled the City Commission and
Texas Rangers. stood pat against
the Ministerial Association and
pledged fight for his plan to
throw the town wide open to
gambling and prostitution.
Galveston, an island resort

a place where you could gamble
or visit q house of prostitution
in defiance of the States laws.
But discretion has been the
motto of the gamblers, and of
the prostitutes, too. after the red
light district was abolished two
years ago.
George Roy Clough. owner of
Radio Station KLUF. pledged
after his election that he'd open
up gambling and re-establish
the red light district.
Mr.. Clough, remained unmoved
yesterday after a three-hour
session with representatives of
the Galveston Ministerial Asso-

The Rev. George Scotchmer,
president of the ministerial as

The defense contended that
Mrs. Natvig had been ''lured"

approved bill closing two loop
holes in the 1854 tax law.
Congress has been told the
disputed sections Of the law may
cost the Treasury more than 81
billion in unforeseen tax cuts
for corporations unless they are
repealed.
The provisions were enacted
for the purpose of bringing tax
accounting into line with busi-
ness accounting. They were not
expected to cost the Treasury
more than SAT million in reve-
nue.. But tax experts have con-
strued the two sections as hav-
ing much broader application
than was anticipated. and Treas
ury Secretary Humphrey has
asked. for outright repeal.
Some Senators still are trying
to work out amendments to pre-
serve the original desirable in
tention, but informed sources
said this morning the outlook for
modification rather than repeal
is not bright.
One section permits a busi-
ness to spread over a period OF
years income collected In ad-
vance for future goods or serv-
ices.
The other permits firms on
an accrual basis to deduct rea-
sonable additions to reserves for
future expenses which are in
Cured and can be estimated in
advance. Most of the criticism
has been aimed at this section.
Senator Douglas, Democrat, of
Illinois, told the Finance Com
mittee this latter section would
make it possible for companies
to set up such reserves in ad-
vance for the vacation pay of all
their employees. He said similar
deductions could be made for
payments to pension and welfare
funds.

of Kansas, will urge the COM
mittee to consider revision

he can hardly succeed without
some Democratic support, since
the Democrats are in majority
both in committee and on the
floor.
Democrats have been so voci-
ferrous in criticizing the two pro-
visions it is difficult to see how
they could change their posi-
ton. They are fortified also by
the testimony of Secretary
Humphrey, who said last week
that the Treasury has studied
many amendments bu. has
found no proposal which it can
be sure will accomplish the orr
ginal objective without giving
some taxpayers an unintented
advantage.

BY MARY McGRORY

An official of the Federal Com
munications Commission today
hailed the conviction Of Mrs.
Marie Natvig, turnabout witness
in the Lamb case. as a vindica-
ton of the FEC.
"This decision will certainly
remove any cloud of suspicion
that has been wrongfully cast on
Government operations and the
FEC in particular as the result
of her testimony" said Joseph
M. Kittner, chief counsel OF the
Broadcast Bureau of the FEC.
Mrs. Natvig was found guilty
of three counts of perjury yester-
day by a jury that took only Il
minutes to deliberate. The 81
year-old Florida divorce. who
was frequently a demonstratlve
and excitable witness at the
hearings which produced the
perjury charges, heard the Ver-
dict with no show of emotion.
Will Appeal Verdict
The first of three recent re-
canting Government witnesses
to be convicted, Mrs. Natvig
faces a maximum sentence OF
five years Imprisonment and a
fine of $4,000 on each count. Her
attorneys will appeal the verdict
Sentencing was deferred by
Judge Alexander Holtzoff pend
Ing a probation Office report.
Mrs. Natvig, made two sepa-
rate and sensational appear
ances at FEC hearings on the
renewal of the TV license OF
publisher Edward o. Lamb. The
first time, in october. she told
of having associated as Com
munist in the 30s with Mr..
Lamb. The second time, in Feb
ruary, she said her first story
was "a pack of lies" fabricated
because she was "coerced" by
former FEC Attorney Walter r.
Powell. jr.
The truth of her allegations
against Mr.. Lamb was not at
issue in the trial. The question
was whether or. not she had
made such statements to FEC
and FBI representatives last
September.
Originally. the Government
also charged her with wilfully
lying about being "coerced" by
Mr.. Powell. Mr.. Powell was ex-
cused from testifying at the
trial because of illness. and the
Government later dropped the
charge.
Mrs. Natvig did not take the
stand. She testified once briefly
and tearfully while the jury was
out of the room to recount the
circumstances of a retraction of
her retraction. Penniless. i'll and
drugged, she said, she was told
by Mr.. Kittner that her reversal
