two months prior to the convention.
President Eisenhower's retirement now
would be more Of blow to the Republican
Party than it would have been in March,
after Commissioning from his heart attack.
No other Republican candidates have been
campaigning, or have been built up, and
it is widely believed that Vice President
Nixon might not be able to get the Republi-
can nomination in San Francso
Adlai Stevenson possibly would defeat
Nixon if the race came down to these two
eand dates. President Eisenhower in the
interest of the Party and in what he con-
siders the interest of his country. would
not back out of the political picture at this
late date unless it was absolutely impera-
tive.
And while the attack of ieitis might be
a slight inducement for him to back down,
il certainly does not bring about a situation
in which it is imperative that the President
step out.
The President, then, after complete
recovery from this attack, will resume his
normal duties and will continue to follow
his original plans. unless some unforeseen
development occurs We see little iustifca-
ton for efforts to raise doubts in the minds
Of the American people as to whether the
Pre- ident is physically able to run again.

President Eisenhower announced his candidacy
Wednesday morning after this editorial was in
type. We publish it as believe it has some
International value.
THERE is no reason for all the specu-
lation over the question whether Eli
senhower will head the Republican ticket
again this year If the President could have
a heart attack and conva lessee for practi-
cally six months and then be prepared to
run he can certainly overcome an attack
of leits and run.
Of course the question has been raised
by 50 many sources, that many voters are
now actually wondering if the President
will go through with his decision to run.
This is as Democratic strategists want it.
The uncertainty about the President $
health is all in the Democrats favor and
the more uncertainty there *, the better
The chances the Democratic candidate will
have in November.
However, President E;senhower's doctors
have said that there is no reason why his
recovery could not be complete. and no
reason WHY he could not continue to pursue
political life as he has in the past. There
is still a more important reason why the
President will run.
The Republican Party is now built a

makes it impossible for it to reorientate

The effects of prolonged strike on the
L. S. economy are likely to be major ones.
1t is no secret that the economy Of the

up or down. in the next few months, Which

Sin.beareF

How does Christ rescue men?
The Bible suggests, and the church
echoes, many answers. Let US look
at three Christ rcscucs men by
taking their sins on himself. As d
modern Christian writer tHordern)
puts it. he took the rap for man
kind As St Paul put it. He who
knew no sin was made to be sin,
for us :" In a long ago battle
for Swiss independence, the story
is that one of the front-line sol
diers seized as many of the enc
my s spears as he could gather in
his arms, and forced himself on
them. thus making by his death
gap through which his felloWs0l
diers poured to victory. In North
Carolina, when the United States
government was about TO punish
the Cherokee Indians for an al
legged crime, their chief Junaluska
offered to give his own life II the
government would let his people
go So he was killed, and his peo-
pie went free These are imperfect
illustrations of what Jesus Christ
did as sin-bearer, as SelfgiVing
Sacrifice. He tasted death for
every one That does not have to
be done twice.

Another way in which Christ
saves is by just being himself.
Once there was school-room in
which the small boys and girls
seemed to learn courtesy, a gra-
CiouSness Of manner, which chill
dren in other rooms did not learn.
Some one who wondered how the
teacher did it. and who knew how
hard il is to teach some children

asked one of the boys how the
teacher did it. "She don't teach US

After the play had been on two

the director was right.
One night, zangwill could not

he had to deliver q lecture. This
was the opportunity for which
the director had been waiting.
He had already made some dras-

privately rehearsed the cast.
At IL o'clock zangwill finished
his lecture and hurried to the
theater to catch the last act. He

EcURITY FOR YOU
By RAY HENRY

A boy born in the United
States today can expect to live
until he's about 67la years old.
His one-year-old brother can
expect to live until he's 6S1s.
Their father who's IS can plan
on living until he's 711a. And,
his 65-year-old father can look
forward to living few months
past 70.
That's a rough idea of what
the latest life expectancy tables
Of the National Bureau of Vital
Statistics show for the male pop
ulation of the United States.
What about women?
They can expect to outlive men
by az to five years.
Summed up, the tables show If
we live just an average lifetime
and retire at IS, all of us-start-
ing from birth-can expect to
spend some years in retirement.
And, the longer we live. the more
years in retirement we can plan
on.
They also show the need for
everyone to plan for their years
of retirement when. chances are,
the money they have to live on
will drop considerably.
One Thing Sure
OF course, how such plans
should be laid depend on each
individual and what he thinks
his retirement needs will be.
But, one thing for sure: It's
never too early or too late to
start the planning.
The first step should be to find
out what you can expect in re-
tirement income from social
security, your company pension
plan and other assets.
One Of my readers told me in
a letter the other day that he
hadn't actually figured how
much he. would have In income
until after he had retired. He
discovered his railroad retire
lment payments were consider
ably below what he thought
they'd be. He ended his letter:

SECURITY FOR YOU
Everyone Should Plan
For Retirement Years

many people die shortly after
they retire. Their financial
worries kill them"
| Once you've figured out how

have coming under your present
arrangements, the next step
should be to set q retirement In

Can Revise Goal
Setting such a goal may seem
strange to people who are a long
way from retirement. But, Of
course, you can always revise
the goal as circumstances change.
And, it does provide psychOlo-
Igical incentive to actually meet
ing the goal.
After the goal is set. you should

gap, draw your plans for
bridging it.
Perhaps, you'll want to bridge
it by putting money into govern
lment bonds, life insurance, real
estate. mutual funds, etc. What
ever you choose, have a look at
the possibilities. Perhaps talk.
ing to your banker or an invest
ment company will aid you in
making up your mind.
A final move should be made
to closely examine your money
management to be sure you're
not wasting money which could
be used to raise your retirement
income.
