a crank or fanatic, but such was
his known loyalty to God that
when he challenged Israel to throw
away their idols, they did. There
must have been something in his
life that made even those primitive
men sure that one-plus-God means
greatness.
Prayer
Another marked feature of
Samueps life was his prayers. We
have on record the story of his very
first prayer. 1t was not a begging
request, not Gimme" prayer at
all. 1t was Speak, Lord; for thy
servant heareth." Even as boy
he would rather hear what God has
to say than to pour out words be-
fore God. How seldom it is that
people in praying give God any
chance to speak! The Lord seldom
has much to say to a man who in
sists on talking every minute.
Another feature of SamuePs
prayer life was that he prayed for
others, even when those others had
turned their backs on him. Samuel
did his best to persuade the Israe-
lites not to have a king. He knew
that power corrupts" and he pre-
dicted accurately the injustice and
tyranny which their future kings
would show. But they wanted a
king all the same; yet in taking
leave of them Samuel was not
bitter. Far be it from me that I
should sin against the Lord by
ceasing to pray for YOU" he said.
Wisdom
Samuel was an example of what
we nowadays call a circuit judge.
He held court in three cities, in
GLIDING his home town. (This alone
is remarkable He was not Con the
one hand) the kind of religious per-
son who retires to cell and there
spends his life in prayer. He was a
man of affairs, trusted by high and
low. He was not (on the other
hand) the kind of religious person
who keeps his religion with his
hymnsbook-in church, where he
takes it out and gets loud and
happy over it once a week-only
once. Samuel on the contrary was
a man whose religious faith was
the foundation of his wisdom. Re-
ligion did not lift him "out of this
world" it gave him insight into
the problems of this world. His
one-plus- God life was not for him
self alone; God in life helped him
to be help to others. Perhaps one
strong reason why there are not
more persons who deserve that
"One-plus-God" description, is that
too many of us want to have God
by the hand to serve ourselves
rather than others.

THE CHURCH FOR ALL :.
ALL FOR THE CHURC ~

The Church is the greatest factor on earth for
the building of character and good citizenship.
1t is storehouse of spiritual values. Without
strong Church, neither democracy nor civilization
can survive. There are four sound reasons why
every person should attend services regularly and
support the Church They are: % For his
own sake. (2) For his children's sake. ~ For
the sake of his community and nation. (4) For
the sake of the Church itself. which needs his
moral and material support. Plan to go to
church regularly and read your Bible daily.

4 Juveniles Arrested
For F oIse Fire Alarms

An expensive hobby of turn
ing in false fire alarms was
nipped by police early today
with the arrest of four juven-
lies. one of whom admitted
pulling" is boxes since April Q.
The 16-year-old youth, an
escapee from st. ElizabethS
Hospital, was arrested shortly
after an alarm at Seventh and
East Capitol streets sent six
fire companies and a rescue
squad racing to the Library
of Congress.
Firemen estimate that each
time a company leaves a fire
house it costs the taxpayers
an average of $500. The Is
false alarms would cost a con-
sentative $4,000, besides sorely
taxing the patience of edgy
firemen called out in the wee
hours of the morning.
The alertneSs of Pvt. Edward
D. Merward of the fifth police
precinct was credited with end
ing the ordeal. which hit a peak
of four false claims in one
morning recently. Pvt. MeI-
ward, walking his beat in the
first block of Second street Sc,
heard about the alarm and be-
gan walking toward the scene.
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1959-04-30

He saw a youth duck into a
basement in the 500 block of
East Capitol street, and when
no light flashed on in the house,
followed him in. The youth
then confessed to turning in the
alarm, and named three others
who we're with him.
One of those picked up was
a 17-year-old brother of the
confessor. Another was a Is
year-old escapee from the East
ern Carolina Training School at
Rocky Mount. N. C.
1t. Herman Xander said the
16-year-old also admitted en-
tering a bakery Sunday night
and breaking into another store
last night. Juvenile charges
were being prepared against the
four youths today.

levied on both the railroad and
the workers for the retirement
payments, and the railroads
alone for the unemployment
checks.
Tax Rate Rise
The present retirement tax
of GA per cent. On January /,
1862. 1t would be increased to
IA per cent each.
For the rail jobless benefit
system, the bill provides taxes
graduated from ~ per cent
to ga per cent, instead of IA
to 3 per cent as under the
present law.
Both the new retirement and
the unemployment tax rates
would be applied to $400 a
month of employe earnings,
instead of the present $3.50.
Unemployed workers now get
rs weeks of benefits. Under
the bill, those with 10 10 is
years service would get SO
weeks, and those with more
than is would be paid for a
full year.
The Senate passed a similar
bill last year the day before
adjournment, but it died in the
house.

branches simultaneously. a rare
occurrence.
Senator Morse, Democrat Of
Oregon, Senate sponsor of the
bill, told a reporter he hoped to
reconcile the differences today
and complete congressional ac-
ton.
Same Benefits Voted
The Senate and House voted
the same new benefits, an in
crease of 10 per cent in the
retirement payments and an
average Of 20 per cent in the
sJobless checks.
f, Under the legislation, checks
of about $4,000 retired rail-
road workers would be raised
from $l18 to $3.50 a month.
Payments to $4,000 wives or
husbands of deceased railroad
workers would be raised from
1852 to $57 a month.
/, The bill would mean about
$98 million extra in payments
in the first year for retired
personnel and their depend
ants, and an additional 500
million in unemployment COM
pensation benefits.
The increases would be A.
nanced by higher payroll taxes
