F A L S E LEADERSHIP
BRINGS RUIN.
Lesson TeXt-Micah 3;
Print-Micah 3: Lea, 9-12.
MEMORY SELECTION -
The ways of the Lord are
right, and the just shall walk
in them; but the transgressOrS
shall fall therein. - HoSea
11:9). This is a great lesson
that all nations and men
should learn. 1t has been sug-
geSted that this verse forms an
epilogue to the entire prop
hecy of Hosea. 1t is an eter-
nally settled fact that the ways
of the Lord are right, and
blessed will be that person
who pursues the ways of God.
He will not make mistake or
go in a wrong course. The
way of Gods salvation is a
stepping stone to the believer,
but a stumbling stone to the
unbeliever, and the rock Of of
Tense to the unbeliever. So it
is with our allegiance, if yield
ed to God we become a SER
want of God, and if yielded
to Satan, we become a servant
to Satan. The Word of God
will be a SAVIOR of life or a
SAVIOR of death. However, it is
an eternal fact, the Lords way
is right.
WICKED RULERS WARN
ED:
"And / said, hear, | pray
you, o heads of Jacob, and We
prices of the house of Israel;
Is it not for you to know
judgment" The reign of
the Messiah is powerful, glor-
ious and peaceful, because it
is based upon righteousness
and judgment. But the regime
of the princes and the elders
of the house of Israel is just
the opposite, because the ru-
lers lack the necessary quail
ties which make leader cap
able of the kind of rule which
the Messiah demonstrated. If
a group of leaders or rulers
are to govern rightly they must
know judgment, and that is
what the prophet is insisting
upon in this particular situa-
ton. "Who hate the good, and
love the evil; who pluck off
their skin from off them, and
their flesh from off their
bones" The description
suggests a most cruel kind of
taking advantage of people, for
the victims were deprived of
everything they had and were
also crushed while they were
being exploited. "Who also eat
the flesh of my people, and
flay their skin from off them;
and they break their bones,
and chop them in pieces, as
for the pot, and as flesh within
the caldron" These peo-
pie were not real cannibaIs
who actually ate human flesh,
but their greed in robbing 9TH
erS of everything they had was
described in terms of cannibaI-
ism to show just how serious
The Mississippi enterprise. (Jackson, Miss.) 1938-current, 1960-09-17

and vicious this kind of thing
had become.
Then shall they cry unto
the Lord, but he will not hear
them: he will even hide his
face from them at that time,
as they have behaved them
selves i'll in their doings"
Because such people ignore
the commandments of the
Lord and the feelings and well
fare of other people, they have
no reserve of mercy for them
selves to draw upon.
FALSE PROPHETS CON.
DEMNED:
"Thus saith the Lord con-
corning the prophets that
made my people err, that bite
with their teeth, and cry,
Peace; and he that putteth not
into their mouths, they even
prepare war against him" +.
Instead of denouncing the sins
of the evildoers and telling
them that serious Judgment
was certain to be visited upon
them, the false prophets de-
ceiVed the people into believ-
ing that their violence com
mitted against others would
not be punished but would be
overlooked or approved.
Therefore night shall be
unto you, that We shall not
have a vision" Such is
the type of prophet that is
being described here, for it
seems that these prophets
originally had the light of
revelation given them, but be-
cause of their dishonesty the
spirit of true discernment was
taken away from them, and
they were left without a vision.
INJUSTICE DENOUNCED:
Hear this, l pray you, we
heads of the house of Jacob,
and princes of the house of
Israel, that abhor judgment,
and pervert all equity"
They were men who loved
injustice and iniquity, because
through these foul means they
could exploit the people or
receive brides from others who
engaged in exploiting the peo-
pie. For such leaders and
judges God had a message
which he sent through the
prophet, not the kind of prop
het who would tell the evil
doors what they wanted to
hear but would tell them what
God wanted them to know.
"They build up Zion with
blood, and Jerusalem with in
EQUITY" The same wicked
condition described in Israel
was also described in Judah.
Both Samaria and Jerusalem
were being destroyed and ov-
erthrown by the sinfulness of
the leading class of people who
because of being misled by
transformation from false
prophets thought their deeds
would not be punished. "The
heads thereof judge for re-
ward, and the priests thereof
teach for hire, and the proph-
cts thereof divine for money:
yet will they lean upon the
Lord, and say, Is not the Lord
among us? none evil can
come upon us" Spiritual.

satisfy the demands of the new
law in regard to unclassifled

Agency officials have said
that some exceptions to such

in a salad oil preparation.

to Government scientists,
rather than the courts.
Government attorneys said
the ruling strengthened the
power of the Food and Drug
Administration to keep certain
products of the market and to
enforce a new law which covers
such items as preservatives,
emulsifiers, flavors and nu-
trientS.
Judge Youngdahl took the
position he is not qualified to
rule on such matters. The de-
cision means producers will
have to remove their products
from store shelves if Food and
Drug Administration Commits
Sioner George P. Larrick says
he believes they are dangerous
and refuses to postpone his
decision.
New Law in Effect
Under a new law which went
into effect earlier this month,
these producers will then have
the burden of proving to the
FDA that their products are
safe.
The case before Judge
Youngdahl involved one of the
Nations largest producers of
canned fish. Mr.. alrick had
advised the Los Angeles S ok
ing and Curing Co. that their
smoked salmon and Shad was
dangerous because of sodium
nitrates (saltpeter) that were
added.
The same chemical is added
to hot dogs. bologna, bacon and
ham. but meats are supervised
by the Agriculture Department
and do not come under the new
law.
The head of the Los Angeles
firm contended he had beer
turning out the same fish prod
ucts with the chemicals added
since 1888 at the rate of q mil
lion pounds of salmon and l0o,-
600 pounds of shad a year.
But FDA concluded that the
chemical can be harmful tc
children. When it comes into
contact with the bloodstream
1t cuts into the oxygen supply
and large quantities of it coulc
result in asphyxiatiOn, the
agency concluded.

Wet Spring

CNOWS in February and March, rains
- in April and May have made this the
wettest spring in many years. In fact,
there has been no spring. The winter
held on and summer is coming, prac-
tically without spring. The present
cold rainy weather may be called the
"long season in May, or sheep
shearing time" or "black berry winter"
1t comes every year but we forget from
year to year.
The farmers are behind in their oper-
ations, and as usual swear that they
will never catch up, but somehow they
always do. Crops will probably be late
this year
The wet spring has been good to the
forest fire fighters. No major fire has
been reported in this area. After May
18th the probability of a serious fire
has passed as the trees are on full leaf
and the forest floor moist. This does
not mean, however, that eternal care
should not be taken in burning debris,
or smoking in the woods etc. Danger is
always present.

Primaries and Conventions

PRESIDENTIAL primaries appear to
us to be useless expenditure of mon
ey and energies for the candidates.
Some issues are developed, it is true,
but the expense is not justified. For
sooth, when elected, candidates pay re-
latively little attention to what they
have said in their election speeches any
way. Go back and read some of the
speeches of Franklin D. Roosevelt,
especially the first time he campaigned,
and they read like fairy tale.
In the Democratic party very few
presidential primaries are held. Ken
nedy and HUMPHREYS have been smuggling
it out in West Virginia to no real avail
SO far as we can see.
Down in South Carolina, the Re
publican State convention has endorsed
Senator Barry Goldwater, of Arizona,
for president. These thirteen votes, a.
long with Arizona's fourteen votes give
this great American start toward the
Republican summit. There is many
slip between the cup and the lip, and
we would hope that by some fate Sena-
tor Goldwater could be nominated on
the Republican ticket. He might be sup
ported by the Southern states as he is
more to the liking of the South than
any candidate yet dragged out by the
Democrats.
Commenting on the action of the
South Carolina Republican convention,
the New & Courier Of Charleston, S. C.
was complimentary to Senator Gold
water Says the New & Courier, Con
servatives in many parts of the country
are serious when they say that Sen
Goldwater is the man in public life best

into Russian hands. No doubt the FBI
can pick up hundreds of Russian spies
in the United States almost any day
they wish The difference is that Amer
lean secrets are known to the Russians
through its espionage system because
of the loose immigration policy of the
United States, and the United States
has difficulty in getting even tourists
into Russia, much less espionage agents.
You have to take look at Russia from
far above, and then surmise on the re-
suits, while here Russians are free to
operate with little or no restriction.
Only last week when tn newest
atomic submarine was launched in Con-
necticut, Russian trawler appeared
just outside our territorial waters. It's
appearance was strongly suspicious,
and we for one, believe it was for the
purpose of spying.
In the situation facing the world to-
day, there is no disgrace in spying, it
is just unfortunate to get caught. The
air force would be remiss in it's duty
if it dropped its guard at any time.
SO far as concern over Khrushev
backing out of the summit meeting, we
need not be alarmed He is going with
all of the chicanery and intrigue he and
the Russians can produce with but one
idea, namely, to take advantage of the
United States in every way possible,
and to agree to nothing that will weaken
in any way the Russian position. The
summit meeting will be far different
from the peaceful talks at Camp David
it will be a different Khruschev
While we may be hopeful of reduction
of tensions, we doubt seriously that
much of value will result.
