pears to be in line with his re-
ported purpose to run for gov
Iernor next year. 1t is generally
expected that Mr.. Hall will re-
ceive appointment to an i'm
portant Federal job in the near
future.
In his discussion Of a modern
Republican" Mr.. Alcorn insisted
he is a blend Of the old and the
new" with a program to fit
changing times and a changing
world situation.
He wants." said Mr.. Alcorn,
the government to provide nee
essary services for his we'll being
but he doesn't want the govern
ment treading on his individual
freedom. He believes that the
tax money collected from his
pocket should be spent carefully
and wisely-and that the gov
eminent, like anyone else, ought
to live within its income"
The G. o. P. chairman pre-
dicted that the Republicans will
continue to make gains in the
old Democratic solid South"
basically a conservative area. "A
quiet upheaval has been taking
place there" he said. And one
of the most encouraging signs
for the strengthening of the Re-
publican Party all over the coun-
try, he continued, is that the
young people of the Nation are
turning to the G. o. P.
Clearing Up Farm Mess"
Taking up the farm problem.
affecting particularly the people
of the agricultural West, Mr..
iAlcorn said the Eisenhower
administration was effectively
bringing the farmers out of the
mess inherited from the previous
Democratic administration.
"The Eisenhower administra-
ton, he said. undertook an all
out attack upon the twin prob
lens OF rising SURPRISES and fall
ing farm prices. Farm exports
were pushed vigorously. For the
last six months they have been
running at the highest rate lin
our history. A new price support
program keyed to peacetime con-
ditions was enacted. The soil
bank program, which becomes
fully effective for the first time
this year. was put forward by
the administration"
AS a result, Mr.. Alcorn said,
prices received by farmers are
z per cent higher than they were
a year ago. And net farm in
come in 1856 was 5 per cent
above that of 1855. and promises
to go higher in the year ahead.
This reverses longtime trend,
he added, for farm income has
shown increases over the pre-
ceding year only twice since
l947-once during 1851. a Ko-
rean war year-and once during
1886, a peace year.

Called too Hot
In contrast to Washington
weather, the experts say it is
too hot and dry here for the
best quail hunting. The bird
dogs tire quickly and the lack
OF moisture on the ground makes
1t more difficult for them to find
the scent of the birds, which are
described as in plentiful supply
During his midday timeoui
from hunting, Mr.. Eisenhower
talked by telephone with Secre-
tary of State Dulles in Washing
ton. White House Press Secre-
tary James c. Hagerty said the
conversation was mainly about
developments at the United Ma
tons concerning efforts to gel
Israel to withdraw her troops
from Egypt.
Mr.. Hagerty refused any COM
ment on reports that the Presi-
dent has warned Israeli Prime
Minister Ben Gurion that the
United States will back u. N
sanctions against Israel unless
she pulls out the troops, except
to say that Mr.. Eisenhower has
had correspondence with Mr.
Ben Gurion from time to time.

publican and the Eisenhower ad-
ministration, listing the follow

they wanted when they sore

Such a program, Mr.. Alcorn
declared. is in agreement with
the beliefs Of Abraham Lincoln,
who said: THE legitimate object
of government is to do for a
community of people. whatever
they need to have done, but can
not do at all, or cannot so well

School Of Wisdom was at its
best on Sunday past, with Stanley
Walker acting as superintendent.
The subject of our lesson w a s
christian Giving" Our mem
DRY selection was LET all your
things be done with charity" We
find in this lesson however that
Christ wants us to see people as
individuals in need of God, and
not to them. Money is not the
only means of helping; acts Of
kindness are also needed. We
sometime think that money is
everything, but there are times
when a kind word or deed means
more than money. AS a result
when we think of Christian Civ
inging let us not think in terms
OF money alone but God also. In
the YPE our subject was "The
People Delivered" and it w a S
sweetly opened by G.. Williams.
The devotional service was ex-
ceptionally high and many in
spring testimonies were told.
Mrs. Johnson brought forth a
wonderful message. Her text was
taken from Matt. 22:4.
