PRAYER

The following prayer was offered by The Very Rev
erend Joseph G. DAILY, C.SSR,,.o Saints Peter and
Pauls Church:
Oh almighty, eternal God, Ruler Of the Universe,
from whom all human authority proceeds, deign to be-
stow thy blessing on all here assembled.
We pray for thy servants, these legislators, to whom
thou hast entrusted a share of thy authority over thy
people. We pray that thou mayest give them also a share
of thy Fatherly wisdom, that their deliberations may aid
and direct the activities of individuals and institutions
to the general good of each and every citizen, and thus
bring to these islands not only material prosperity, but
also a full share of domestic peace and tranquility.
And, for the people of these Virgin Islands, we pray
that they may truly be citizens-showing due reverence
for those who govern them; showing exact observance
Of laws, and a most just respect for the rights Of others.
We pray, too, that in the heart of each there may reign
a Christ-like charity for each and every fellow man.
These things we ask in the name Of Jesus Christ,
thy Son and our Lord. Amen.

After 81 years in the House,

Massachusetts, mas chosen Q
new task for himself.
He operates a mobile. highly
informal. completely voluntary
school for freshman Congress-
men. specializing in such sub
jects as when, and when not,
to speak. how to climb the
political ladder, and how to get
reelected.
These are. subjects the 76-
year-old Congressman Is well
qualified to teach. AS G. o. P.
leader and twice Speaker Of
the House he has been In the
thick Of the legislative battles
that have shaped modern
America.
Mr.. Martins classroom is the
House chamber during q regu-
lar legislative session. His
pupils are the new Republican
members, seemingly at ease
in their new House seats, but
with the sure inner knowledge
that there is much going on
they don't understand.
The House, with 437 Repre-.
sentationS of United States

economic viewpoints, is q COM
plex power structure with a

Mr.. Martins method of in

q few minutes Mr.. Martin will
move on to another one.

says one grateful pupil. He
waits until you ask him. It's
q wonderful help to have some
one you can go to with ques-
tions."
Gives Voting Advice
Upon request Mr.. Martin will
offer advice on how to vote
on a particular bill, but usually
his little lectures are concerned
with the everyday chores of
being q Congressman.

Nehru Sees Red Riqht
On Berlin Movement

NEW DELHI, Aug. % (AP)
Minister Nehru indi-
Gated today he believes the
Communists have the right to
control movements between
West Berlin and East Berlin
and between West Germany
and Berlin.
Winding up a foreign affairs
debate in the upper house of
Parliament, Mr.. Nehru asserted
that Western access to Berlin
is mot a right but a concession
by the SovietS." German oc-
cupation zones only granted the
allies the right to occupy Ber-
lin, and free access between the
Western zones and Berlin was
granted by the Soviets a year
later.
Access rights were diluted

The elevated. Mr.. Arndt said,
"is an integral part of long

tinued sabotage could lead to

this he meant possibly a halt

Soviet and East German au-
thoritieS could easily argue
that they can control the move
ment from East to West Ber-
lin," Mr.. Nehru declared.
Although he said legal rights
are confused" in the German
question, the comments by the
neutralist leader appeared to
line him up with the Com
munists against the West. The
United States and the Soviet
Union both have tried to win
his backing in the Berlin dis
pute.
Mr.. Nehru repeated earlier
statements that the crisis should
be solved by negotiations in
stead of troops and threats and
that only increased contacts

Democrat of Rhode Island,
would enable persons waiting
for a table in District res

Stand-up drinking has been

u. S. Mines
To Supply
Troops Coal

President Kennedy today re-
verSed a long-standing policy
of buying abroad the coal and
coke used by United States
armed forces in West Ger
many.
He now expects most of the
coal and coke requirements for
those forces will be filled by
areas of Pennsylvania, West
Viginia. Maryland, Virginia,
Alabama, Arkansas and Okla
homa.
The President announced
that the Defense Department
will invite bids from United
States producers for 100000
metric tons of anthracite coal
or coke needed for the re-
mainder of the fiscal year end
ing next June 80. The bids will
be opened September 13.
Officials said coal and coke
purchases for the forces in
West Germany have been run
ming at SIS million a year, with
most being supplied by Ger
man firms.
They expect the cost ,of
American coal delivered in
West Germany will be higher.
The new policy is to pay no
more than rs per cent more for
American coal than the West
German price, however.
Officials estimated that the
coal and coke domestic pro-
ducerS have been asked to sup
ply will cost around $1O.8 mil
lion. Some 40 per cent Of the
annual requirements alreadv
have been contracted for in

BORDER
Continued From First Page

Continued From First Page
The line is simple: The glorious
Peoples Democracy of East
Germany has now deciSively
proved that it means business
about Berlin. The stopping of
traffic in human beings
trefugees) and the Illustration
of Western spies and provoca-
teurS have put an end to major
problems of the regime. The
West must now adopt a new
and more respectful attitude
toward the government which
has shown itself to be the mas
ter in its own house.
Westerners Not Impressed
All of these assertions, how
ever, leave the Western experts
here just a bit cold. 1t is true
enough that the border has
been closed effectively and the
flow Of refugees has been cut
off. 1t is true that the East
German army and police-un-
der the guns of a half-million
Red army troops - have done
what they were told to do. It is
true that desperate mass up
rising in East Germany has not
taken place.
But the ultimate objective of
consolidating the Communist
regime of East Germany is a
good deal more doubtful. On
this score the net result of the
Berlin exercise could, in fact,
have quite the opposite effect.
From its creation after the
war, Mr.. Ulbricht'S regime has
suffered from two serious
weaknesses. The first was that
it has been Unsuccessful in
building the East German
economy to the point where it
can be rated as a major asset
of the satellite bloc. The second
is that despite liberal use OF
all the classic Communist
propaganda methods, the Pan
kOW government is still cord
tally detested by an over
Whelming number of East Ger
mans.
The closing of the border is
aimed quite obviously at solv-
ing he first of these problems
The normal flight across the
sector boundaries of 300 or 400
