Reds PUSHING
China for U. n.

UNITED NATIONS, N. Y,
Nov. l (AP).-The Communist
bloc yesterday urged the United
Nations to regard admission of
Mongolia as a step toward
granting Communist China a U.
N. seat.
The Soviet Union and mem
bers of the Communist bloc
took the floor in the General
Assembly during welcoming
ceremonies for the Asian Com
munist nation and the new
African nation of Mauritania,
admitted last week in a package
deal. Their flags were raised at
U. N. headquarters yesterday.
They are the 1920 and 1880
U. N. members.
In their Assembly speeches
the Communists ignored Maui
ritania as a gesture toward Mo-
rocco, which claims Mauritania
as part of its territory and OBJ
jected to its admission. West
ern speakers in turn did not
mention Mongolia.
Valerian Zorin of the Soviet
Union recalled that Mongolia
was admitted after Nationalist
China did not use its veto in
the Security Council and did
not participate in the vote.
ut was the fact that they
were not present that allowed
the Council to take just de-
cisions," Mr.. Znrin said. This
stresses the need for expelling
the Chang Kai-shek (Chinese
Nationalist clique, seating the
(Communist) Chinese Peoples
Republic in all the organs of
United Nations"
The China-seating debate
comes up in the Assembly later
this session. Luka F. Pala-
marchuk of the Soviet Ukraine,
noting that the United States
abStained on Mongolia, urged
the Assembly to seat Red China
because ''this may help the
United States to come out of
the impaSse in which it now
finds ITSELF"

policies under attack here since
1852.
Five countries-India, Ceylon,
AfghaniStan, Malaga and Vene-
zuela-put in a rival resolution
| in somewhat milder terms. 1t
reiterated the language of an
Assembly resolution denouncing
South Africa that was adopted
last spring and called on mem
Der nations to consider taking
individual or collective action
against South Africa. But the
proposed new draft would have
member nations go beyond
consider" and ask them to take
such action.
Britain announced its opposi-
ton to any severe measures at
present.
xxx Letters Reported
Michel Collet of Guinea rec
commended imposing severe
penalties on South Africa and
denounced 'Ku Klux Khan rae
lists" he said clustered around
South African Foreign Minister
Etc Louw here.
Mr.. Collet told the committee
African nation delegates had
been a target for abusive letters
signed by the Ku Klux Khan.
United States Ambassador
Francis T. P. Plimpton
answered that Mr.. Collet should
also have told the committee
that the African delegates had
received a letter from the
United States Government
apologizing for the fact that
such material from such ia

through the United States
mails. He reiterated United
States opposition to race dis

ed the basis of my prizewinning
entry in a national contest spon-
sored by the Duplex Envelope
Company seeking messages for
printing on the back of their
weekly offering envelopes. This is
what l wrote and it won for me,
the sum of five hundred dOllors: ::
Along a pathway that leads to
Florida's s Singing Tower is tab
let bearing this inscription: I
come here to find myself. 1t is so
easy to get lost in the world :
Along the pathways of life
stands the church. 1t asks you to
come in and find yourself your
better self. 1t is so easy to get
lost in the world-lOst in mater,
ialism, lost in doubt, lost in sell
fishness and pride and lust. The
church wants to help you find
your way back to God and faith
and hOpe-really to find yourself"
In further Interpretation of
what it means to find myself L
turn to a book titled Take a Sec
Ond Look at Yourself" In one of
its chapters, Dr. John Miller, the
author, tells of a man who came
to him one day with a seriously
troubled mind The heart of it
lay in his estrangement from his
wife. A bundle of nerves due to
worry, Dr. Miller urged him to
seek the strength and the guild
ance of the church has to offer.
He did Several weeks passed.
Here 1 shall let DR.. Miller pick
up the thread of the story: "One
day he came to me and he was
strangely calm and collected In
his hand was a letter just writ
ten to his wife In it were these
words:
To-day l dress my very best
to go to see a friend with whom
/ have become associated al
though they tell me that this new
friend is not at all impressed by
clothes, money, color or creed.
Only by sincerity is he impress
ed | am going to ask him to go
to you, my wife, and tell you the
things | have told him, to leave
you a little Of the forgiveness of
which he has so much and with
which he has made SO many peo-
pie good incidentally he says he
has lived in our town all our lives,
and that we could have met him
long ago He said he was very
glad to meet me His name-his
name is God"
After Finishing this letter" DR..
Miller continues, Il knew the Sc
cret Of his new-found poise and
peace of mind
Would you find yourself" -
your better self? Come into the
church and in all sincerity accept
what the church has to offer for
it is still true that religion and
God are the best cure for troub-
led mind 1t is still true, as the
Old Testament prophet wrote it
years ago, Thou wilt keep him
in perfect peace whose mind is
stayed upon Thee" Qsaiah 26:3)

Glory to God in the highest and
on earth peace good will toward
men. Jesus is the greatest infiu-
ence that ever came to the world.
God sent His Son to live among
sinful men God decided that there
should be a new coVenant-a more
personal one that people could re-
spond to so He sent Jesus in the
form of flesh. In Jeremiah and
Isaiah, there is the promise of
this new COY enant and then in
Luke this promise is fulfilled.
When Jesus became II, He began
sharing His knowledge of God
with the world 1t is what Christ
says through us that will be the
power in the community. Rev.
Repperr asks, do we use the time
of Christmas for ourselves? De
we forget what Christmas is for
and fail to do something for Him.
Luke tells us to go teach. We
are Gods representatives. God
can take a worthless, sinful life,
wash il IN the blood of Christ, put
His spirit in it, and make it a
blessing to humanity. That is sal
vatiOn.

70 bring TO you a message for
the coming year, like three strands
of a braid, l would weave togeth-
er for you three items of interest
that engaged my thinking today
Here is the first:
The background of it is war and
it tells Of dispatch received by
the talented English poet John
Oxenham at time when the
names of many of Britain's sons
appeared on her casualty rolls.
With a strange premonition of
evil Oxenham noted that the dis
patch was from the War Depart
ment His fingers trembled as he
tore it open. 1t stated with all too
cruel brevity that his son had
been killed in action"
Stunned to beWilderment by the
tragic news, he walked the streets
of London for long. weary hours,
little aware of what he was doing
or where he was going Ultimate
ly he found his way to a little
chapel and entered Here in the
semi-darkness of this house of
God, the God to Whom it was ded-
icated entered his troubled soul.
Here, in answer to prayer, he
gained for himself in his tragedy
that calm submission to divine
Will we often call ''the peace of
God that passeth all understand
ing" And here, under the spell
of q tragic soul experience Oxen
ham wrote the lines of a poem
which the church has learned TO
know and love:
Mid all the traffic Of the ways
Turmoil without, within
Make in my heart quiet place
And come and dwell therein
"A little shrine Of quietness
All sacred to Thyself,
Where Thou shalt all my soul
possess.
And / may find myself"
AS I read the POEMS last line,
And I may find myself" there
is nudged from my memory an
experience that was mine some
years ago when I visited a bird
sanctuary established by Edward
Box near Lake Wales, Florida,
commonly called the Singing Tow
er. AS we approached the tower,
awaiting the ringing of the fam
Gus carlton bells which the tow
er houses, an atmosphere Of rev
erence seemed to pervade the
place and we heard a man back
of US and it was not on Sunday
to comment, Il feel as if | were
going to church" Near the tow
er itself we CHANGED upon a tab
let with an inscription that form

Disabled Veterans
Must Report Income
Continued from page one)

Continued from page one)
the VA pension payments them
selves
VA needs the reports to deter
mine continued eligibility of pen
siOners and to make adjustments
on the basis of increased or de
creased outside income One pen
sion law cuts off payments when
income of an individual, if single
exceeds $4,000 a year, or S2700.0C
if he has dependents. Another
law 1960) sets limits of $1800.0O
and 100000, but provides for ad-
justments on the basis of income
up to these maXimums.
But the really big headache is
getting these cards back from the
beneficiaries.
Mr.. Fields estimates that on the
basis of past years, some fifty re-
cipients will simply extract their
checks from the envelopes and
without looking inside, throw away
the enclosed tabulating cards. And
by the way, that is no excuse.
Another 250 or so will not
bother to fill out and return the
cards because their incomes are
already in excess, or will be dur
ing 1862. That is all right about
1862, but when 1861 income isn't
reported, VA is interested in de-
|termining just when the benefic-
iary's income made him ineligible
and why he didn't tell VA at the
time. If the recipient is at fault,
he may be liable for repayment
of all checks received during the
previous year.
Sometime in February, the Will
mington Regional Office will, as
usual, have to suspend payments
to more than 300 beneficiaries
whose reports have not yet been
received.
Prompt and accurate reporting
can save the VA and the bene-
ficiary both the delay and the
headache.
