to the EDITOR
Dear Mr.. Gore,

- ~S~A S'~~'
With winter coming, and
one of our seasons when ac-
cidentS are high, 1 wonder if
you'd care to publish a pray
er which has helped me so
many times. Everytime | get
in the car at home, I say, the
prayer so maybe someone
else would enjoy having a
copy of it on their sun visor
in the car as I have. Also the
other day I heard a clever
statement that should be con-
Sidered by drivers. I feel ii
everyone would follow the
signs and laws and these
simple common sense rules,
there would be less slaughter
on our highways. The state
ment: "If we would only re-
member to drive with traffic,
not against it,"
Help me, o God, as 1
drive, to love my neigh
Dor as myself, that 1
may do nothing to hurt
or endanger any of Your
children. Give my eyes
clear vision and skill to
my hands and feet. Make
me tranquil i'm mind and
relaxed in body. Deliver
me from the spirit of ri
valry and from all re-
sentiment at the actions
of others, and bring me
safely to my journeys
end.
Also the abuse folks put
their cars thru it's a shame
and such a waste. I think of
my car as my friend treat
it good and it will do good by
you. 1t shouldn't be just a
1T o o |" to be used" OF
course, some folks feel other
folks are in that category too,
so how can they be expected
to respect an AUTOMOBILES!
Thank you for listening to
a few of my views. I Just
thought someone might like
the prayer.
Yours truly,
Margaret H. Speck
Box As, Huntsburg, Ohio.

Hearings on the Southern'S
application will be held by the
ICC beginning in Atlanta on
May 30.
Mr.. DeButts said affiliation
Of the Central of Georgia with
the Southern will lessen Gen.
trails competitive disadvantage
and will strengthen its ability
to compete on more nearly
equal terms with it's present
more powerful competitors.
He said that Central has
been handicapped since its re-
organization in 1948 by uncer-
tainty involving its ownership,
control and management. Part
nership with Southern, he said,
will end these uncertainties,
give Central the backing Of a
strong and progressive trunk
line railroad and, in general,
open up a new era of great
promise for the Central and the
area it serves"
Southern Railway is expect
ing "momentarily," Mr.. De-
Butts said, final clearance from
the Interstate Commerce Com
mission to acquire all of the
stock of the Interstate Rail-
road, an 88-mile line serving
bituminouS coal fields in South
western Virginia. The COM
mission approved the transac-
tion in February.
Earnings Reduced
Southern had a poor first
quarter due to Slackened busi-
ness generally, severe weather
and the strike of railroad ma
rine workers in New York which
affected our interchangeS," he
said" However, we suffered
less than most railroads, traf-
fic prospects now are brighter,
the whole economy seems to be
moving up from low gear. and
we are anticipating a salts
factory improvement in our
earnings during the rest of
the year"
Southern's earnings last year
were $4.31 per share of COM
mon stock compared with
$4.65 per share in 1859. First
quarter earnings were 81 cents
per share as compared with 81
cents for the first quarter of
1860.
A leader in promoting the in
dustrial development of the
South. Southern Railway will
continue and enlarge its ef-

Butts said. Last year, indus
trial growth along Southerns

year since 1856. with 372 new
industrial developments rep
resenting an investment of a

IN LAOS the tide of civil war
is said to be running dangerous
ly against U. S. efforts to unity
and neutralize the country, and
Washington officials are wor-
ried. On Friday the State De-
partn1ent publicly accused the
Russians of dragging their feet
in negotiations on Laos so they
can continue to supply and
strengthen rebel Communist
forces. Officials want to avoid
a showdown with Russia over
Laos. but they say privately we
cannot allow the Communists

Asia. Their hope is to work
with our allies to produce a
military stalemate in Laos which

Forum On Aging
Continued from gage II

NOoIltllueu from gage ~
county has several hundreds of
persons who never qualified for
it.
Raine concluded with an APP
peal for regional home for the
aged here as one of the answers
to the problem. "These are the
people who helped establish and
maintain our hons and schools
and helped us build our towns.
We must give them just consid-
GRAFTON and provide for them an
atmosphere of peace, comfort
and of being wanted" He pointed
out that So of the States SO coun-
ties have no home for the aged.
Other Speakers
Painter said that an adequate
program to meet the challenge
of the problems of the aged and
aging would have to include:
provisions for income mainte-
nance; special facilities and serv-
ices for care of the aged; protec-
tive services, and means to help
them make the adjustment to old
age.
DR.. McClung said the church
has an obligation "to teach
people how to grow old grace
fully" Much of the church's role
must be spiritual, adding the
aging to understand that death
is as much part of the life pro-
cess as birth; that life has mean
ing now and has a carry over
meaning after death"
Other church challenges DR..
McClung sees are: providing
centers of recreation for older
people; providing avenues of
service for the younger older
people so that the church Gre
ates for them "the feeling that
they are needed, wanted and use
full"
On the question of church sup
port of homes and medical care
for the aged Walker. the panel
moderator. said it is too linn
tied" He said experience shows
that church giving is not nearly
adequate to the task.
The forum was sponsored as
a public service by the Farm
vile Chapter of the AAUW. Mrs.

WEST GERMANY has re-val-
ued its monetary unit, the mark
SO that it is now worth Is cents,
or four to the U. S. dollar. in
stead of 1913 cents at which it
was pegged Sept. 10, 1919, by
Western occupation forces. The
move will have little effect on
German consumers, but German
exporters will have to charge
five percent more for their goods
in foreign currency or lower
their prices in terms of marks.
The re-valuation had been ru-
mored for some time, and this
had led traders to buy German
marks with U. S. dollars. Now
that it has taken place, they are
expected to re-convert to dol
lars since they will get more
than they started with. This will
help relieve the drain on Ameri-
can gold reserves.
