20 years service by a series of
incidents concerning his income.
In 1851 the probings of the Sem
ate District Crime Subcommittee
brought out certain incompletely
explained funds involving In
spector Beach. The grand jury
refused to indict him, but a po-
lice trial board fired him when
other money matters arose.
Earlier this month, the Inter-
nal Revenue Service issued two
tax liens to collect $13,385 in
alleged back taxes.

years, since the Commissioners

he found no note either in the

Mr.. Beach had enjoyed an al
most meteoric rise in the Police

began in 1851. He had headed

Misunderstanding Defeat
The great debate over civil rights
got off to a shaky start in the
Senate, because President Eisen-
hover evidently had not done his
homework. We have no doubt that
the President meant to be helpful,
but through inadvertence he was
exactly the opposite.
What happened was this;
Sen. Richard Russell, the Georg-
ia lawmaker, called the Civil
Rights bill the most cunningly
devised and contrived piece of leg
islation 1 have ever seen"
Its real purpose, said Russell,
was not to win the right to vote
for the Souths disfranchised Ne
groes. II was really meant to inn
plement the Supreme Courts
school Indignation decision, he said.
It was a force measure" aimed,
as in Reconstruction Days, to put
black heels on white necks"
The President was asked about
this at his press conference the
other day. Instead Of coming out
and saying that he certainly
backed the courts school decision,
but also favored extension of vot-
ing rights TO those now denied the
privilege, he hesitated and showed
uncertainty. He ended up the dis
cussion by virtually inviting Sen.
Russell to come to The White
House and famiiarize him with
the Administrations own propo-
sal
So far as the contents of the bill
were concerned the President said,
Naturally, I am not a lawyer and
I don't participate in drawing up
the exact language of proposals"
In his mind, the President went
on. it was rather incomprehensi-
BILE" why some people thought the
bill was extreme and would lead
to disorder

EVERYDAY
RELIGION
By Rev. Robert w. Turner
GIFTS or GRACE

1t is quite obvious, even to the
casual observer, that the worlds
Creator has filed His creation with
an abundance of natural gifts for
Mans use and enjoyment. For all
of these we are duly thankful, be-
ing well aware that the barest ex-
istence would be impossible with
out them.
1t is also plain that Man, Gods
highest form of creature, often
abuses the natural creation meant
for his enjoyment by deliberate
misuse, individual and corporate
which brings upon the body of hui
manity a radical judgment of God
which is but the operation of nat.
ural and spiritual laws. Due to
pride, Man may then attribute
these personal errors on his part
to the unscrutable ways of Divine
Ruler, thereby making Almighty
God the "scapegoat" for his own
sin. Thus does Mans original sir
bring in its train whole family
of lesser, but no less disrupting
sins, which throw nature out OF
joint and give rise to the belief
that we live in a chaotic world
without rhyme or reason.
In such a world, Mans whole
deepest nature is frustrated, and
each individual man who loves both
God and freedom is sorely tempted
to live by his own wits and do the
best he can by himself until ne
lives and dies in the midst of a
frustrated existence, still wonder
ing what it is all about anyway.
