When a man, he feels Responded,
And his health is almost gone
With nothing but fussy wife,
To fuss with him at home.
My Lord pray for peace at home,
Please hear my groan and prayer
No other God that l will serve;
Please give Inc peace at home.
Such fussy wife as have got and
Not child at home. Oh! Lord
Will you deliver me;
And hear my prayer and groan.
You have chosen me to go to preach
To many many more. Such fussy
Wife as | have got,
Is standing in the door.
Please guide me on my way.
Let me always to bring,
Don't let this hellish wife l have
Got, stop me on my way.
Gods Man Is On The Kings Hwy
The Holy Bible tell us all the same
Tells man to 60 into all
The world and preach the Gospel.
When the Gospel has been preached
to all nations, then it tell US all
The same and that's the end.
If the leaders of Gods people today
Fail to be on one accord for
Christ. We are not leading Gods
People right. 1t keeps some
Always in a fight.
There are more members in Gods
Home, that have never been born
Again claiming they are child of
God; Lying and filling Gods
House full of sin.
The Wages of sin is death, we
Are told. But the gift of God
Is all right.
We have got to love one another,
And stop fighting Black and White.

Business Is
Defying Supply
Demand Law

American business has been able
to maintain and increase prices, in
defiance of the law of supply and
demand, Stanley Ruttenberg, d.
rector of the AFL-CIO Dept. of
Research, asserted in a panel dis
cussion of increasing cost of living
with three Springfield, Va, house.
wives.
Investigation Necessary
Ruttenberg, heard in one of the
programs in the new AFL-CIO
public service series, Labor An
swers our Questions, again de-
manded congressional investiga-
ton on the causes of the increasing
cost of living.
"This is the only way the con-
sumner will get the facts" he said.
"Only by such an investigation
will he find out whether it is COM
petition that determines prices, or
whether companies merely seek
higher profits"
Ruttenberg pointed out instances
in which American business took
advantage of an increase in wages
to boost prices several times.
1--WE have been taught in school
that prices are the result Of the
operation Of the law of supply and
demand" he declared. "But it is
no longer competition that deter
mines prices, but q question of
whether the companies can get
away with making more profits"
Disputes NAM Figures
Ruttenberg's answer was in re-
ply to a question by Mrs. Laura
Cambern who asked: HAS compe-
tition been turned to one of adj
vertising, Of gimmicks where the
consumer still pays as much, but is
told he is getting a lot more for
his money!"
The other pahelists were Mrs.
Helen johnson and Mrs. Louise
Sloan.
Ruttenberg disputed the Ma
tional Association Of Manufactur-
ers charge that output per man
hour has gone up 1873 percent since
1919, while average hourly earn
ings have risen 818 per cent.
The latter figure, he explained,
has not been adjusted for the
cost Of living and il therefore not

Man OF The Year

view 1OTk.- ne man OF the
Year Award" of the Boys Club of
New York's Borough of Queens
was presented to AFL-CIO Pres.
George Meany. At banquet in
the Hotel Waldorf Astoria, Meany
was told tho plaque was presented
Sin recognition of invaluable serv-
ice to the cause of boys and the
development of character among
youth"
In accepting the award, the ALL
CIO president said he believed it
to be recognition "of the work of
the trade unions in various sorts of
community services"
Practical Demonstration
You are giving a demonstration
ofHpractical work in helping to
make the good citizens of tomor-
row." he said.
He lauded the role Of voluntary
organizations" as an essential part
of the American way of life-par-
ticularly at a time when the No.
problem Of the world is the effort
of the Kremlin to win worldwide
domination.
The American system, with its
free institutions, will be able to
withstand the attack, he predicted,
so long as our economic system
provides benefits for everybody,
not just few.
Through the Anglican sys-
tem," he pointed out, workers
have won the highest standards of
living in the history of the world.
Voluntary Observation-Disclosures
such groups as the Boys Clubs and
the trade unions-are the lifeblood
Of our free system"
Meany dashed at Moscow propa-
ganda that the world "co-exist"
with Soviet leadership.
"Let us do business with Moscow
only through our government, and
accept the Communists word for
nothing-for their word is worth
nothing" he declared. "More than
ever before, eternal vigilance is
necessary"
Individual Subjuga!'.d
At stake in the worldwide con-
flict with the totalitarians is the
democratic civilization Of the free
world, as opposed by "the rule Of
animal brute force" in the Com
munist countries. Behind the Iron
Curtain, he noted, the individual
is subjugated to IAN all-powerful
state"
Meany pointed out that the Mos
cow propaganda agencies con-
stantly attack him and the Ameri-
can labor movement.
Every night, I'm attacked on
Moscow radio as an agent Of Wall
Street. I'm accused Of wanting to
start another war because l won't
swallow their propaganda" said
Meany.
1.-THE Communists cannot achieve
world domination without destroy
ing our American way Of life.
"Our nation, whether it wants to
or not, is the leader of the free
world because it has both spirit
and the tremendous resources for
such leadership.
"But we can't leave the problem
Of defending democracy and fight
ing Communist infiltration and
propaganda just to the government.
Our government has to know that
the people are fully behind them
in thia struggle"

Auto Insurance
Is Purpose Of
Proposed Law

Montgomery-An attempt to put
the State of Alabama in the insur-
ance business and at the same time,
make it more difficult to get your
automobile license plates, would re-
suit from the passage of bill now
| pending in the House of Represen-
tatives.
1t is a bill called the dissatisfied
Judgment Bill now on the House
calendar and opponents of the
measure have labeled it another
blow at private enterprise.
Here is what the bin calls for:
Every person buying license pla-
ties for their automobile must pro-
duce an insurance policy at the
time they get the plates proving
that they are adequately covered by
automobile liability insurance. If
they leave their insurance policy
at home, or in their safe deposit
box or other place of safe keeping,
they must go get it before a tag
can be bought. Persons who do
not have liability insurance must
pay the State an additional $500,
with the money going into fund
administered by the State. Then,
According to the bill, when the
courts render judgment in an
automobile accident, and the judg-
ment is not paid by the defendant,
the money might be paid out of
this fund.
Here's why opponents of the bill
say it should be defeated:
l. 1t puts the State in the in
surance business. The State, they
say, already has enough to do with
out invading any more fields of
private enterprise.
2. They say the procedures es-
tablished by the bill are so un-
weildy that very few judgements
would ever be paid out of the fund
and that it would only cost the Tax
Payer money. They point out that
a similar law in New Jersey, which
has been under heavy fire since its
adoption, has proved unavoidable
and only small percentage of the
judgments have been paid from
The fund.
In addition, the opponents to the
bill say that it may arise out of the
proposed $500 payment by nom
insured motorists. Many people are
bound to think that this $500 is
cheap form of insurance under
State Government. Some may even
drop their insurance. This would
be especially true when individuals
are hard pressed, or if even mild
recession should take place. Such a
tendency could lead to the State
becomming very much involved in
insuring all Alabama motorists!
The theory of the bill is to pro-
tect the insured motorist from
damages caused by an uninsured
motorist, yet under the bill un-
insured motorists could recover
damages even though neither he
nor the person responsible had in
surance coverage.
Opponents also raise the point
that juries could develope q ten
dancy to award maximum damages
in every case since the money would
be coming out Of the State fund,
and that milking of the fund would
follow.
There is definitely . problem Of
the uninsured motorist, opponents
Of the bill say, but the proposed bill
won't solve it and will only result
in additional cost and inconven-
fence to the insured motorist.
The state has no business di-
recting such . socialistic program.
Further, opponents Of the measure
point to New Jersey to prove that
such q law doesn't work anyway.

Another 500 million repre-
sented increases in dividend pay
ments to those who owned
stocks.
Benefits Major Chunk
The remaining 5000 million
the largest chunk-represented
a rise in what the Commerce De-
partment calls transfer pay
ments." That's a technical de-
scription covering money the
Treasury pays out for which it
receives no goods or services in
return.
In short. that's money the
Treasury paid out in social Sc
curity benefits, all sorts of aid,
welfare benefits, etc. And social
security benefits we're the big
thing.
Much of the explanation for
the increase lies in changes
made in our basic social security
laws in recent years. AS an illus
tration, women became eligible
for benefits at age 81 last No.
vember and many women are
now taking advantage of the
change to draw social security.
Also other groups only recently
covered by the law-such as
farm operators-are now becom-
ing eligible for benefits in rising
numbers and are claiming them.
Just since the end of 1856, So
cial security payments have IN
creased Sis billion. The Treas
lury's total transfer payments"
are now running at 5000 bill
lion a year.
A symbol Of the welfare state?
Sure. you can call it that.
But the fact is that without
any fanfare, social security
alone has become a powerful
prop under prosperity.
