Federal District Court next week. The
NAACP is attacking the legality Of the

Fortunately. Virginia has interposed its
sovereignty between its people and the

WITH cold weather approaching, it is
we'll to remind readers that fires - de-
stroying homes and property will soon
be occurring much more frequently than
during the summer months
The loss of life and property from fires
in the United States is still staggering
one, and the average reader would be sur
prised to know how many people who suf-
fer disaster from fire do not have insur-
ancc TO protect them from loss.
Speaking of rural citizens, it is often diff
ficult to get adequate insurance for the
farm home at reasonable rates and, there
fore. many rural homes are not insured
against fire. And if fire starts and gets
out Of hand the home is completely de-
stroyed, as there is usually not sufficient
time to bring in needed firefighting equip
ment.

governor will proceed to do this we are not
informed. He has no precedent on which to-
rely, and there is no prescribed course. He
may succeed BY an appeal to reason, but
certainly not by military force.
Third. if the governor should fail in this
a tempt, a tuition-grant is provided for
pupils not satisfied with whatever program
for public schools is evolved by the State
Of Virginia.
This procedure was adopted into law by
the legislature of Virginia, and it is this
program that the rabid integrationists are
pointing to in the first step, an attack
upon the pupil assignment law now before
the federal court.
We may be sure Of one thing, namely
that the Virginia laws will prevent stu

The church at Corinth is dead
and gone long since. But we ask
questions about the church Of to.
day. Is il moral? 1t certainly
should be; the aim for every one
OF its members is nothing less
than to be like Jesus. The church
certainly talks morality At least
half an hour every week is spent
listening to a serious talk which.
in spite OF what rambling there
may be. does hold UP high ideals.
The Ten Comm andments are post
ed on the wall Of the Sunday
school hall Every Sunday school
class is in favor Of morality. You
couldn't get vote against moral
ity in the whole place.
But does the church talk NOR
atty? Does il teach social re-
sponsibility? Does it bold up the
same standards for the rich and
the strong as for the poor and
weak Is the church putting its
finger on the sins Of our time or
does it spend more energy de-
nouncing a few simple sins than
some Of the bigger ones2 Does
the church talk morality on any
higher level than tsayp a lunch
