Pastor Carl Hempe, 40,
Bethesda Seventh-day Adventist
Churches, will preach his fare.
well sermons on Saturday and
next Wednesday will leave by
car to his new charge in the
west.
Hempe has accepted an in
vitation to become pastor of a
25U-member congregation in
Crescent City, Calf, near the
California; Oregon border, after
having served the two churches
here for the past two years. He
resides at 800 Jackson ave-, Ia
koma Park.
He was graduated from
Easton, Pa, High School in 1888
and then spent three years in
the employ of a commercial
firm in Easton. Then came a
two-year stretch with the Air
Force, starting as an aviation
cadet pilot and after the war
he went to work with the
Easton Tanning Co. Later he
joined the Ingersoll-Rand Co.,
Phillipsburg, N. j., and then
took a job with the New York
Life Insurance Co. while going
to college. During this same
period he was an assistant in
the office of former u. S. Sena-
tor James D. Duff.
His stron gina n activities
brought him several titles
"Mr. America of 1885," "Mr.
Lehigh Valley" and others.
In the early 1950's he decided
to enter the ministry and
trained for this responsibility
at the Seventh-day Adventist
co-educational school in Ia
koma Park - the Washington
Missionary College. He has also
taken advanced work at the
Andrews University, formerly
of Takoma Park, now of Ber-
rien Springs, Mich.
First Charge in Virginia
He graduated in 1854 and his
first charge was that of assist
ant pastor in Richmond, Va.
Later he became pastor of
churches in Fredericksburg,
Va, and Culpepper, Va. For the
past two years he has served
churches at Bethesda and
Adelphi.
He was the weight-lifting
champion of Lehigh Valley, Pa,
from 1889 to 1943 in the middle
weight class. From 1916 to 1947
he was the electromagnetic
champion as well as the Senior
Middle Atlantic States Cham
pion in the same year. He was
the Washington, D. c., Middle
weight Champion in 1912.
Still Keeps Fit
Although his days of entering
contests are over, Pastor
Hempe still keeps a set of
weights in his basement and
works out with them every day.
He firmly believes that proper
physical training is a step to-
ward developing a sound spirit
ual life. II think the church
has a responsibility to teach not
only what are spiritual truths"
he says, "but to help people
recognize that In body develop
ment they can build healthy
minds and healthy thinking"
Today the five-foot-nine minis
ter can hoist 240 pounds over
his head, which surpasses by IS
pounds his own weight.
A former Lutheran, Pastor
Hempe says that one Of the
things that attracted him to the
Seventh-day Adventist ministry
was the denominations ban on
smoking and drinking. The
Hempes have three children,
David, jeanne and Patricia.
Pastor Hempe's farewell SER
mons will take place Saturday
at $3.50 at his Bethesda church
ard at II am. at his Adephi,
Md, church.

What happens when an
American company moves its
plant abroad? Plenty.
It's a timely question, be-
cause many American corpora
tons are moving production
lines to foreign countries.
You'll find them in England,
France. West Germany, Israel
and other spots around the
globe.
First, why do they move?
There are many reasons, prin-
cipal among them being:
l. High American wages, in
comparison to foreign scales.
A company paying SO an hour
for American labor will be
deeply interested to know that
skilled labor can be hired for
So a day in many foreign coun-
tries. The foreign workmen
may not be as we'll trained or
as skilled as the American
craftsmen. but they will have
to ruin a lot of finished prod
ucts to destroy that differen-
tial.
2. Duty barriers are high
against American products.
A product made in France, of
American design, pays no duty
in the French market and has
special advantages in the Eu-
ropean customs union. And the
customs barrier against i'm
porting the product into the
United States may be very low.
Back to the first question:
What happens when a COM
pany transfers its plant from
Middletown, America, to Dom
age. France?
l. Workers in Middletown
are thrown out of work. Com
panies usually promise to ex-
pand other activities to abb
sorb the unemployed, but a
case in which this has been
done satisfactorily has yet to
come to this writer's attention.
2. Gold is drained from the
United States. Money to erect
and equip the plant at Domage
must be taken largely from the
company's savings and credit.
But, once spent abroad, the
foreign nation can demand the
face value of the expenditure in
American gold.
Thus, the transfer of manu-
featuring facility from the
United States to a foreign
country constitutes the export
Of jobs and the export of gold.
3. The drain does not end
there. If the company imports
its products to the United
States, it again drains Ameri-
can gold reserves. Money paid
for foreign-made produc t S
largely becomes convertible in
to gold for foreign claimants.
There are, of course, advan-
tages. These are:
l.. Americans can buy the
products cheaper than before,
in many cases.
2. American purchases in
clude duties, thereby easing the
tax burden on others.

Given More Time

F. Douglas Sears, state in

pleased by reported progress of
conferences to curb unnecessary
utilization of hospital facilities

gest a solution of the problem.
Blue Cross officials have been
