rented before moving here
only one injury has occurred,
And that one was to a coun-
selor.
The youngsters who serve as
counselors are just as extra
ordinary as the campers. They
serve for little pay-$20 a week
maximum for senior counselors
$40 minimum for juniors. Most
are high school and college stu
dents.
Wages Contributed
Significantly, only two coun-
sellers accepted their checks
last year. The others returned
them as a contribution to the
camp.
Next year. when the camp
is completed. activities will be
greatly expanded. 1t will re-
main open for IL weeks--three
periods of four weeks each
and more than 800 youngsters
will be treated.
Many people who through
collective effort and individual
gifts helped raise $4,000 foI
the project already have seer
the result Of their generosity.
Some Of them visited the camp
this summer.
Actually, about 100000 has
been spent in the completion Of
seven buildings and the partial
completion of an eighth. Six
more will be added this winter
bringing total cost of the prof.
ect to about $4,000. A SWIM
ming pool and playground are
on the drawing boards.
Estimated value Of the prop
erty on completion is $3.50. 900
The difference between value
and cost is the result Of con-
tributions Of material and
labor.

They feel so normal, say

Their infirmities range from

WESTMINSTER. Md. Sept
2.-The approximately 500 dele
gates attending the seth annual
conference of the Organized
Bible Glass Association yester-
day were warned to guard
against "discouragement - the
pitfall into which most Chris
tian workers tumble"
The warning came in the
second address by DR.. Harold
L. Pickett, jr.. pastor Of the
fremont Temple Baptist
Church Of Boston and the prin-
cipal speaker at the conference,
in its second day at the West
ern Maryland College.
The association is composed
Of the Bible classes in about
80 Washington area churches
of Is denominations.
Three Reasons Cited
DR.. Pickett listed three rea-
sons why church workers be-
come discouraged:
/. His eyes are focused in
the wrong direction--on the
problem rather than on the one
who could solve it,"
2. His mind stops function
ing properly. allowing negative
ism to permeate his. thinking"
8. rHe has allowed himself to
become completely inactive"
He urged church workers ia
''be ambitious to know Gods
word" to win others to Christ
for this is Gods will" and to
remain ever in the center Of
Gods will"
Area Pastor Speaks
Earlier DR.. B. F. Archibald. OF
the Chevy Chase Baptist
Church, said the intercontinen-
tai missile is not as dangerous
as "the frantic people who con-
troll tit." He said the people
handling the missile create un-
necessary excitement.

ference means more money 70

But. unhappily. at the last

Everything adds up to more
money - more Government
spending. There viii soon be
calls for more money for our
allies to maintain their de-
fenses--calls for more money
for nuclear research and for
missile development.
It now looks as though.
despite the best intentions
here 10 keep the Federal
budget within $40 billion next
year. the Nation viii be lucky
to come out with a figure 2
or 3 billions higher than that.
This new trend is the di-
rect result of "Sputnik." In
stead of burying the rivalries
of the armed services, the
episode has intensified them.
Nobody knows what day the
Russians may turn up with
some new weapon - so the
emphasis now is ON every
kind of weapon Of offense or
of interception that can help
protect the Nation against
attack or deter an enemy
from starting war. All this
costs lots Of money.
Politically. there is confu-
sion today. The Democrats,
who were crying out for econ
omy a few months ago and
for tax reduction. now are
denouncing the Eisenhower
administration for having
been caught mapping in the
art of spinning "Sputniks"
around the globe. Presumably
public opinion wants some
thing done--So the only thing
to do is to spend more money
for research and interconti-
mental weapons generally.
though there Is as yet no de-
partment or bureau that can
give birth overnight to more
full-fiedged geniuses in the
missile game.
Basically. the Nation Is
paying q heavy penalty for
divided government. With
the Democrats in control Of
Congress and the President
from the opposite party. dis
unity over public policy Is
the rule. One would think
that. in this most serious
stage Of the cold war"
