WASHINGTON, Aug. 3 - With
the conclusion of the national
conventions Of both major par
ties the stage has been set for a
legislative battle royal when Con-
gress returns to Washington next
week.
There are sinlilarities in the
platforms of the two parties and
in the program outlined by Can
didates Kennedy and Nixon. But
there are vast differences, too.
While both. the candidates and
the official party utterances en-
phasize foreign policy as the
major issue for the campaign
ahead. both recognize the need
for a growing American economy
if this country is to retain leader
ship of the free world.
The major issues Congress will
likely tackle before getting down
to campaigning in earnest in
clude medical care for the
aged, housing. increased mini
mum wage. Federal aid to edu-
cation, and legislation to remove
restraints on secondary boycOtts
the so-called "situS-picketing"
bill.)
The firt four of these issues
have already been listed by the
Democratic no m inc es as
''musts" before the 86th Congress
finally adjourns around Labor
Day.
The Republican platform also
calls for action providing a pro-
gram of medical care for the
aged, aid to education (construc-
ton only, and increasing the
minimum wage.
1t is here that the basic differ
ence between the approach Of
the parties becomes clearly evil
dent.
Not only in these areas, but
throughout the Republican plat
form, there is emphasis on the
cost Of new programs, shared
Federal state local reponsi-
bility, and reliance on the free
economy to achieve healthy, sus-
tainable economic growth.
On the other hand, the Demo
Gratis, showing profound dis
trust Of the free economy, have
pledged themselves to achieve an
annual growth rate of five per
cent and will spend Federal
funds in whatever amount neces-
sary to achieve this rate, raising
taxes if need be. At the same
time, they will cheaper our
money by lowering interest rates,
they will reduce the national
debt, and, miraculously, they will
/ at the same time prevent infla-
ton.
Here are a few specific com
parsons:

a dietician'S standpoint is a po-

rather than being fattening.
Maine is very backward in not
advertising this.
The Paper Products Industry
I am told that 80 per cent Of
the great State Of Maine is
covered with growing timber:
also that this timber is growing
faster than it is being cut and
used. l was astounded to stand

from Maine trees by the Great
Northern Paper Comp any.
There, however, are several
other paper mills in Maine.
Your newsboy probably delivers
to many of you each day State
of Maine newsprint: and even
the books which you read and
your telephone directory might
well have been printed on paper
made by Maine mills. Maine is
also benefiting from the growth
in packaging of almost every
thing sold in supermarkets, as
well as from the increase in use
of cartons and boxboards. These
products, however. are suffering
from lack of proper advertising
The State of Maine is doing
very little to help the manu-
facturer of these paper pro-
ducts. This especially applies to
newsprint, which is absolutely
dependent upon newspaper ad-
vertising. Radio and television
advertising and the beautifully
lored magazine advertise
ments are all indirectly aided
by the federal government; but
the State of Maine is doing moth
ing to increase newspaper adj
vertising, the promotion of which
is left to individual newspapers.
Yet, the State of Maine is
largely dependent upon the adj
vertising which the newspapers
of the country-yes, and Of the
world : carry. As newspaper
advertising increases, the num-

Potato Industry

the approximately 10000 acres
of growing potatoes. The plants
were in full bloom with their

with some of the leaders in the
industry. The potato growers
are more than lust farmers.
They are progressive business

of the crop. The best potatoes
are marketed, while the small
ones are used for producing fro

idea of the patience, brains, and

put into raising the potato. APP

that the two reasons why Idaho
potatoes are such a strong COM

eral days and is still continuing
Q Government scientist said to-
day.
Such storms are caused by
disturbances on the surface OF
the sun, commonly called sun

James Weldon, head of the
world warning agency Of the
National Bureau Of Standards,
said the storm has been partic-
ularly intense on the North At

cations-the one linking New

But IL also mas affected radio
transmissions across the Pacific,
he said.
Mr.. Weldon said the storm
reached a peak Of 268 on an "A
scale" used to rate severity.
Anything over so on this scale
is considered a major magnetic
storm. he added. The 268 figure
was measured at a Government
magnetic observatory near
Washington and occurred on
November IS.
Mr.. Weldon said the storm
died down considerably after
that, but last night surged UP
again to cause more commune

Palm Sunday, April 10, found
the church filled to capacity. Rev.
M. L. Simmons chose for his SUBJ
ject, King Triumphant" and text,
st. Luke 1910, IF these shall hold
their peace the very rocks will cry
out" Rev. Simmons opened the
very inspiring message with the
statement that Jesus was a radi-
ant, dynamic power in this COM
munity; that He had a look that
invited loyalty and devotion to
friends; Jesus had an answer all
His own and that He was God
wrapped in human flesh.
The speaker further mentioned
that no writer had been able to
appropriate His greatness and no
artist has ever painted His face.
He pointed out that there is some
thing about Jesus that demands
respect, He was faultless; Jesus
took a cross that assembled shame
and disgrace and made it a cross
of redemption and that Jesus came
to seek and save that which was
lost.
Rev. Simmons emphasized that
His coming to this world spells
victory; that nothing can be more
majestic than humility and that
Jesus taught a lesson before He
left the earth that we were born
to serve one another. In conclu-
sion the Pastor stated Jesus is
King because He meets all human
needs, He is a King because He
win lift your weary spirit; He is
a King when one is sick and the
