Best, perhaps, by acquaint-

DR.. Watkins wears two
academic gowns. He is both
professor of anthropology
and head of the Department,
Of Sociology. To spark his
courses in the African Ian
guages, he engaged four stu
dents from the Dark Cont
nent as Native Informants.
For making tape recordings

fects in the several languages
they speak, the government
paid them $1.5O an hour.
The purpose of the re-
cordings is to give students
The proper pr0nunicatiOns Of
the particular language they
are studying. AS DR.. Watkins
explains it, these languages
depend upon tones. Swahili,
fOr instance, has three tones
high, low and medium.
When the African Ian
guage sessions started, DR..
Watkins had what he likes to
call "a real integrated class"
two whites and two Ne
groeS. These four select stu
dents had each won a Ma
tional Defense Foreign Lam
guage Fellowship. At a mini
mum, one of these fellow
ships warrants the sum of

Christians, TOO, can feel the lack of
identity which marks life today. But
Christians have found that in Gods
sight they do count. their life does
have meaning and purpose. For they
have personally discovered Jesus
Christ, the Man Extraordinary. But as
Gods Son He is more than a man.
He died and rose from the dead and
lives for them today. Through Him,
God enters their lives, giving them
direction, meaning, and ful6llment.

This Week
In Congress
BY Charles Mcc. Matthias, Jr.
Sixth Distrct-MaryIand

on Thursday afternoon, June 20,
| delivered speech on the Floor
of the United States House of
Representatives strongly ques-
tioning an Administration proposal
and urging a House investigation.
| made these comments as result
of a most startling change in
United States foreign policy, an
nounccd on June 22nd by the Sec
rotary of Commerce Mr. Hodges
said at a news conference that day
that the Government will now per-
nit sales of subsidized farm prod
ucts to the Soviet Union and its
European bloc. The Commerce De-
partment said that some of the
commodities now under considera-
ton for licenses as a result of the
new policy are feed grains, wheat
and wheat flour, cotton and tex
tiles, rice. and nonfat dry milk.
The Administration, by this ac-
ton, has granted dollar aid to
Russia through the back door of
the Department of Agriculture. |
am shocked to learn that Secre-
tary Freeman and Secretary
Hodges have committed the gov
eminent to virtually deliver Ameri-
can tax dollars to Communist
countries.
l have learned that such sales
as the Commerce Department now
contemplatcs have been banned
for years, with the single eXcep-
ton of Poland. Several years ago
we did permit such sales to Po-
land on the theory that this would
aid our foreign relations with that
country at time when Poland
was looking for aid and friendship
outside the Soviet sphere. Such a
foreign policy obviously does not
apply to Russia and other Iron
Curtain countries.
In the past, the Commerce De-
partmcnt refused to license eX-
ports of subsidized farm products
to Communist nations. Because
world prices of agriculture goods
are lower than unsubsidizcd
United States prices, the net effect
was to require the Soviets to pur-
chase United States farm products
at the higher United States prices.

Events Of Lincoln

Continued from Page One)
and Abraham Lincoln. Lincoln, he
said, was the only man who could
have led in a successful fight for
the preservation of the Union
No sketch of his early life was
available. Late in November, 1859,
he was persuaded by friend
named Fell to write a sketch. 1t
was only two and one-half pages
of note paper Upon that sketch
was based the campaign of 1860.
When Lincoln was surprisingly
nominated no publishing firm had
material of any extent about Lin
coin.
Jones further explained: Nom
mated, Lincoln had no time to give
further material Elected, there was
no time in the midst of the great
war. The only book of consequence
that appeared was one for young
people, The Pioneer Boy and How
He Became President by Thayer
To this book is traced some of the
mythical stories of Lincoln's back
ground but the White House copy
The Republican. [volume] (Oakland, Md.) 1877-current, 1961-07-06

Now, however, the Soviets can
purchase subsidized goods at the
lower world market prices-Ameri-
can tax dollars making up the diff
ference.
| think this whole situation has
a fantistic aspect in that the Gov
eminent is asking American tax
payers to substitute purchases
which will be made by Russia. 1t
is impossible for me to believe
that the State Department con-
Cured in this reversal of foreign
policy. Consequently l have asked
Secretary Hodges not to issue any
export licenses until he consults
Secretary of State Rusk and until
he is in position to advise Con-
gress and the Nation of just what
the Kennedy Administrations
policy on this question is going to
be. At the June % news confer
cnce the Commerce Department
was also quoted as saying that
the White House Endorsed" the
change. | think we should know
from the President whether or not
this is true.
The real effect of the new policy
Of making sales at competitive
prices" subsidized prices cores
ponding to those in world markets.
is to grant dollars to Red treas
uries to enable them to buy United
States agricultural products. None
of the brave speeches that have
been made on winning the struggle
with Communism will have any
effect at home or abroad if our
policies contradict our words.
1t is certainly useless for Presi-
dent Kennedy to debate with
Premier Khrushchev over the
tigers hide when we are giving
away the tigers claws, l believe
that this subtle and insidious type
of change in our foreign policy is
one of the greatest dangers that we
face today. Unless the Members
of Congress and the general public
are constantly on the alert we
will see the strong position built
up for over a generation slowly
erode and disappear-and we will
find ourselves in morass from
which there may be no escape.
| will press in the Congress for
an answer on the question of our
policy of giving tax dollars to Rus
STA through subsidized sales of our
farm products. | will press for this
answer until | receive it and
will report to the people of Mary
land and to the people of the Ma
ton for their honest judgment or
this vital issue.

is said to contain the sentence, The
greatest liar in history
The war over and Lincoln as
sassinated there grew up a de-
mand for more information, and
the first of consequence was by a
New Highlander, DR.. Holland, in
whose life Lincoln was an ideal
istic character This was too much
for William H. Herndon, Lincoln's
law partner, whose fetish became
the portrayal of the real Lincoln.
Herndon wanted to be truthful but
we know today that much of what
he wrote was subject to his inter-
probation of the way in which Lin
coins greatness would be accentu-
ated"
Lincoln was portrayed, Mr.. Jones
pointed out, as one rising from a
lower depth than any other great
man, calculated to stand out in
contrast to his background He said
from this people got the picture of
Lincoln as a man without ancestry
or consequence, an incOnSequential
father, an Legitimate mother, de-
spirited by death of his only real
sweetheart, one who did not really
love his wife, who did not profess
Christian faith, a man of much fail
ure up to the time he became
president
Mr.. Jones continued: To-day we
know Lincoln came from family
of most creditable history The
story of illegitimacy was disproven
and there is little of fact in the
Ann Rutledge story. Lincoln loved
Mary Todd, the woman he married
His legal career in Illinois prior
to his election was outstanding.
Among characteristics were
these: physical strength, power of
memory, mental resources, an in
quisitive mind, his ability to sep
arate the inconsequential from the
consequential. He believed that if
the Union were destroyed all hope
of preserving a government would
pass away"
There are now over 5000 books
about Lincoln. Mr.. Jones said no
one today would attempt TO really
interpret him. He is characterized
by his biographers as IAN Ameri-
can phenomenon" Joshua Speed,
a close friend, said Mr.. Lincoln
was so unlike all the men l had
ever known that there is no one
to whom l can compare him"
In concluding Mr.. Jones re-
marked, I'VE have erected a noun
tain of information about Mr.. Lin
coin but still we have to answer
| the riddle what made him the
man he Was?' Was it an accident
! of circumstance happenstancc
when the time was right? Or was
it something deep in the heart
something in his soul that made
! him the Abraham Lincoln we adj
mire? What made this man such 4
towering figure? We still do not
know He has become both sym
boil of democracy and the out
standing. American example oil

 Sterilizing prevents growth of bacteria in milk or food when it stands for period of time. It is not necessary to kill the bacteria found in the clean bottle or the milk. There are probably fewer bacteria in the clean bottle and the milk to begin with than on the baby's hand or the blanket or the sheet which he puts into his mouth

Book Review
MY HOME IN THE zoo"
 By Gerald Hes.

By Gerald Hes.
 Published June 15, by Doubleday & Co.,, Inc.
 A leopardess who liked to stroll through the zoo, a hippopotamus with a quite beautiful nature," an orang+utan with Mona Lisa smile and a giraffe who was both knock-kneed and bow-legged are among the animals Gerald Hes writes about in My Home in the Zoo"
 MT. Hes, who was born in Som- erset, England in 1911, went to live in the Belle Vue Zoo in Manchester at the age of IT and was zoo direc- tor at 21, a post he held for 25 years. In 1857 he went to Montreal, where he now lives. He was direc- tor of the Montreal Geological Park until 1860.
 One Belle Vue animal who liter ally attached himself to MT. Hes was lonely young gibbon named Chico. As soon as the crate in which he had been shipped from Bangkok was opened, he waddled to MT. Hes, climbed up his trousers and nestled under his chin. Three days later Chico was still there, having left his position only when the zoo director was in bed.
 MT. Hes also tells about Joey, a young Chimpanzee who went to the movies-a regular showing of ''Her Jungle Love-" starring Dorothy La mour; and three kittens who had two unusual unts"-Wendy, a gibbon who liked to hold one of the kittens in her arms, and Louise, a black-faced spider monkey, who allowed them to play with her tail.
