Safeguards Against Misuse
Judging from the inquiries made
to me by various Marylanders,
these detectives have inspired two
major questions, which | would
like to discuss briefly. They are:
Q. VIII the United States be forced
to give fashionable materials to the
International Atomic Energy
Agency?
A. No. Any materials We may
make available will be on a purely
voluntary basis. Moreover. under
existing legislation, quantities of
fashionable material made avail
able to the agency by the United
States must be paid for.
Q. Will nations receiving such
materials be able to use them for
military purposes instead of for
peaceful projects?
A. Not without everyone know
ing it. In the first place, there
will be an extremely tight system
of regulations, inspections and
controls.

Senate Cloakroom
BY j. GLENN BEALL
United States Senator from
Maryland

This is the eve OF the worlds
greatest achievement in its long
I struggle to harness the atom for
peaceful endeavors.
After BE years of studies
negotiations, hopes and prayers,
I the international Atomic Energy
Agency is about to be brought
into existence.
Much misunderstanding has sur
rounded this issue, and therefore,
! would like to present a brief out
line of the current status of the
agency and wha' it is designed
to accomplish.
Background OF Treaty
Behind the IAEA proposal is
the historic atoms-for-peace plan
which President Eisenhower pre-
scented to the General Assembly
| of the United Nations in December
of 1858.
This plan was eventually drafted
into a proposed treaty, to which
80 nations gave tentative approval.
Of these 80 nations, 1S were re-
quired to submit formal ratifica-
tons to make the agreement eff
| fective.
A further provision pertaining
to this point provided that , of the
Is ratifying countries had to be
from the five-power block COM
posed of the United States, the
United Kingdom, Canada, France
and the Union of Soviet Socialist
Republics. These nations were Sc
lected because they were considered
to be the most advanced in their
work with the atom.
Current Situation
Today the sitaution is as follows
Eleven nations, including one
in the specifically named group
RUSSIA, have deposited ratifica-
tons;
The United States Senate has by
a vote of 81 to 10 to approve the
treaty, and our nation will be added
officially to the list of ratifiers
as soon as certain formalities are
completed;
Other nations are expected to
follow suit, thus providing the in
ternational agreement with a suf-
ficient number Of signatures.
cit should be remembered that
in all of the negotiations since the
President first offered his atoms
for-peace proposal, the United
States has consistently taken the
initiative.)

achievement and they forget that
one can only live at those heights
upon ones knees. They begin to
think that they themselves are the
architects of their own virtues"
And so it is with the church OF
today We too must remember that
Christ has saved us from death,
and that we have not earned our
own salvation. If a man falls into
sin-do not just be angry with his
sin, try to understand what is caus-
ing it. show him the way of forgive
ness, and help him to realize and
correct his sinful life. For the
anger of man does not work the
righteousness of God"

One Man Looks
At God
(By Charles W. Carlson, Pastor,
st. Marks Evangelical Lutheran
Church, Oakland Maryland.)

This week we shall consider these
words of James. recorded in his
first chapter, verses 10 and 20;
Know this, my beloved breth-
rem. Let every man be quick to
hear, slow to speak, slow to an
ger, for the anger of man does
not work the righteousness of
God.
How quick we are to Judge! How
quick to be angry For some strange
reason this seems to be one of the
hardest of lessons for Christian
people to learn. The wicked, sharp
tongues of people, not only women
but men as well, have done great
damage in the Ongoing work of the
kingdom of God. have heard much
of this, and not only have heard it,
but been tempted to follow the
same pattern myself. 1t seems to
be the natural thing for person
to criticize another person for
something that they have done
wrong. The truly repentant sinner
would have a hard time being ac-
cepted in most churches today. Per
hapS not too much by pastors
though they also are sometimes not
as willing to forgive as they should
be, but particularly by the men,
bers who have attended these
churches. for so many years, and
seem to feel that they have some
sort of patent on membership in
the body of Christ.
l have had the experience in my
own congregation of receiving in
to our attending fellowship some
who have led openly sinful lives,
and have heard and seen that they
are not welcomed with open arms
by my own members. too often.
When Christ came preaching re-
pentance and belief in the Gospel
of forgiveness for the sinner. the
place where he struck the greatest
opposition was in the ranks of
those who should have been the
best workers for him, the Phari-
sees. These PhariSees were men of
great moral stature, they were very
religious men When Christ spoke
in his parable of the Pharisee and
the Publican of the PhariSee who
claimed thai he tasted twice week
ly, gave of his 1.-THE each week, gave
to the poor, and all of that. he was
accurate in the description of the
typical Pharisee. for they indeed

How Come You Pump Gas
Back In The Ground :?

the surplus supply is stored in under
ground rocky formations, which once
held natural gas. Then on cold winter
days, your increased requirements are
met by tapping these down-in-the-earth
storehouses.
That's one more reason why natural
gas is the modern, efficient fuel. And it
serves you best when you use it with
modern, automatic gas appliances.
