Babson Discusses Hobbies AS An Investment

BABSON PARK. MASS. July
20, 1861. Some readers may
think this subject is a little out
of my line. but so many of my
friends have died of heart dis
ease this past winter that l can
honestly call hobbies a real in
VeStment.
Purpose of Hobbies
A hobby is something which
takes your mind off what is
troubling you. You may have
difficulty sleeping, or you may
not have a good appetite, or you
may be worried about the trend
OF the stock market or some I'M
fortunate family affair. The cure
is to get your mind on some
thing else. An interesting hobby
will do the job. Such a hobby,
however. must be game" to
you which will hold your inter-
est, not a chore.
Stamp Collections
One of the most popular hob
bies INDUCED in by professional
men such as doctors, law
yers, ministers, and politicians
is stamp collecting; the late
F. D. Roosevelt was a great
stamp collector. It combines
knowledge of geography with a
possible chance for profit. Those
who desire the latter, however,
should confine themselves to
stamps of one country, prefer
ably those of the United States.
The same professional group
turn also to painting Sir Wins
ton Churchill is a master in this.
With few painting lessons it is

Double Check

This is what's generally known
as every body shook up" week.
The President didn't have to
proclamation it circum-
stances did the job. People
heard, saw, and read so much
that the mind sorter crystalized
on a possibility of anything can
happen hysteria and decided
that a WAR was most possible.
It amt that easy. We got a long
go at what's going on in the
thing called WORLD. It wasn't
War !. it was just a lot Of
WORRY got tangled up. We will
come out of it sooner or later.
About every twenty years Of
yearning we, the people, have
to get woke up. This is IT. Just
you be patient and don't forget
anything. AS we older get, it
takes much less to throw a fit
(got that out of thin air).
We got to have a bigger army
and get the boys off the street.
There comes the draft. We feel
better that way even if they
wouldn't shoot or couldn't hit
if thy did. You feel better
when they can carry a gun legal

Cherokee County Herald, Centre, Ala
A Study In Human Nature

THERE are many readers of the
Cherokee County Herald in Cherokee
County who constantly resolve to i'm
prove their minds by reading intelli-
gently written books, in the hope that
they will become better equipped to
understand the many issues that crowd
upon them as they try to keep pace with
this modern world.
This impulse is good and should be
acted upon but, often, in our search for
the new, we have tendency to overlook
the value of the old.
For this reason, we would remind our
readers that, under all modern issues,
however expressed, human nature as
serts itself much the same as it did in
the past ages. Therefore, the basic study
for us is human nature and the sOlu-
ton for modern troubles is improved
human beings.
By the general consent of almost all
of mankind, the Bible has long been re-
cognized as pre-eminent in the field of
human nature, possessing the funda-
mental guides to improving human be-
ings 1t might be a good idea then, for
all of us to give little more diligent
study to the great truths that are set
out in the Book of Books.

Newburgh's Welfare Problem

WASHINGTON-A nationwide
round of applause is due the
City OF Newburgh, N. y, for
daring to challenge the sanctity
Of that modern sacred COW
public welfare.
But there is more to the story
than the well pubhcized intent
Of the NeWburgh city fathers to
clamp down in the relief pro-
gram. There is a much less
publicized critique of Welfore it.
self by these city officials, and
it deserves the widest possible
attention.
NeWburgh's city manager and
city council have served notice
to all that chiSelers will be
forced from the relief rolls. that
bodied persons will be de-
MED relief if they refuse work,
and that unmarried mothers can
not boost their relief receipts
with more illegitinlate children
The city is being pressured
by state and federal authorities
to be more lenient in enforcing
these and other str i n g n t
criteria, but SO far, Newburgh is
standing firm. Whatever hap
pens, the cause of responsible
government is being strength
ened by the community's refusal
to go any further down the road
Of the welfare state.
NeWburgh believes, City Man
ager Joseph Med. Mitchell says,
That unless welfare considers
the community total eco
nomic and social situation, work
on individual cases is futile and
wasteful. No arm of govern
ment, anywhere, has the right to
spend tax dollars with no tangi-
BILE results for the community as
a whole. Unless the sum total Of
all individual caseWork reflects
in the improvement of police,
fire. sanitation, housing, health.
economic and moral conditions,
welfare has failed
Unless the welfare program
can be used to serve the COM
munity as a whole, public funds
are in fact being expended to
further pollute our society .
Our whole program is based on
morality, and is designed for So
cial reform Wo do not think
that it is moral to appropriate
public funds to finance crime
illegitimacy. disease and other
social evils.
Yet that is precisely what
seems to have happened in
| NeWburgh, a Hudson River city
Of 81 600 souls. The few years
! has brought an alarming in
crease Of all those evils in the
wake of a $50 per cent increase in
the city's Negro population.
But NeWburgh is not basing
its case for welfare reform on
the fact that these newcomers
are Negroes. but on the threat
of their collective besavior, to
the well being of the community
They have crowded into the
waterfront area and made it into
an area Of slums and Of crime

React In Crisis

DEOPLE of the United States react
to crisis Khrushchev might look
back into history to find our nation has
always been peacefully inclined. Sol
tons to international problems have
been sought by peaceful means The
time will come when patience runs out
and the people of the United States go
all out in their defense and in the de-
Tense of their allies.
We do not believe this point has been
mented by Communists over East Ger
many and Berlin will prove a test for
American diplomacy. President Ken
nedy will speak to the nation Tuesday
evening over a national teleyision hook
up. This will be the most import address
that the President has made during his
six months in office. The public con-
fidently expects him to outline foreign
policy in no unmistakable terms, and
that policy is expected to be firm.
Once policy is determined Mr.. Khrush-
chev should understand that the future
will depend upon his actions. History
proves that the United States follows
its course once that course is set.
viii a firm policy mean war?
We believe not The Russians have set
goals for subversive attacks against the
United States and other nations not now
under Communist control SO long as
this policy succeeds Khurshchev will
not risk war. After all he wants control
Of the United States and its great
wealth and potential. Control of de-
stroyed country would mean little and
destruction of Russia in retaliation
would profit him little.
Also, poised to strike at Russian do
mination are several smaller nations
in central Europe, Southern Asia, and
possibly others. European allies,
France, Britain, Germany, the NATO
nations, though fearful of total an
Inhalation must support the strongest
defenses of their nation and their allies.
Our concern is more of subversion,

ating optimism and good will. Cow

Czechoslovakians like their
sweets, judging by the as
sortment on the buffet table
Tuesday evening when the
Ambassador and Mrs. Milo
slav Ruzek were hosts to
members of the press at a
6 to 8 supper at the Embassy.
Food editors came from New
York, Philadelphia and Bal
timore for a tasting of the
typical Czech foods.
The array of sweets as we'll
as the salads and hot dishes
were prepared by the wives
of Embassy officials. Busy
as she was getting ready to
leave for nome the next day,
Mrs. Ruzek, herself, was up
at $50 am. the day of the
party making the apple stru-
del which is her speciality.
Mrs. Ruzek and her three
children will spend a long
summer holiday in Czecho-
slovakia, the first in two
years she told me. The Am
basSador will join her later.
Supper began with a choice
of three soups liver ball

sions), Czech tripe soup

vegetables finer than we
usually do. Additional salads
included a bowl Of sliced to-
matoeS, cucum bers and
chopped onions, and stuffed
cherry tomatoes.
It's obvious CZechS like
their sweets. On the laden
buffet table were trays Of
apple strudel, delicate pas
try horns filled with whipped
cream, a delectable choco-
late walnut cake, kollaches
with a variety of Filings
(poppy seed, plum jam, and
cottage cheese, and a vast
assortment Of small cakes
and cookies.
The beverages served with
the supper included a choice
of red or white wine and
light or dark beer - most
familiar to Americans was
the brand known as Pilsner
