would probably be first to admit
1.-THE statement that the in
dictments were politically in
spired" was about as foreign to
fact as any made during the
entire trial.
The biggest job of tongue-bit-
ing of the season was indulged
in by Gov. Terry Sanford when
he steadfastly refused at his
press conference last Thursday
to comment on the political
charges tossed in his direction
at the trial by Fayetteville Fell
low Townsman Jim Nance.
Although, technically, Burch
and Brewer have only few days
to decide definitely whether to
go through with the appeal, as a
matter of practical application
they have several months to
decide whether to go through
with it. incidentally, one of the
most expensive roads a defend
ant can travel is to go on to the
State Supreme Court with his
case. The best that can come out
of an appeal is a new trial.
The figure most often heard
here about the cost of the trial,
including attorneys fees, court
costs, and the whole thing is:
SIC, 1000. But it could be even
higher than that.
The least that can be served
of a term, allowing for good be-
havior, ETC., is 25 per cent. In
this case, four-and-a-half
months.
Those who were in and around
the courtroom when sentence
was passed said the place was
full of sympathy for Kidd Brew
er. There was not as much pity
expressed for Robert Burch. In
fact, he got two or three hard
jerks of the lash directly from
the tongue of the judge. Brewer
has become a very deeply religi-
Gus man since his act.
ON THE SPOT. There was
no doubt that the entire Sanford
administration was sweating
this one out. He had made his
charges, strong and true, on
dark Sunday afternoon back in
January. He made the announce
ment in a flamboyant, district
attorney manner via the press
and radio. Would John LarkinsA
have handled it the same way
had he been elected Governor?
A lot of people did not side
with Gov. Terry Sanford in the
way he went about bringing the
Burch- Brewer matter to the
public's attention. If the defend
ants had been found not guilty,
there would have been political
donnybrook from here on in
and possibly worse. AS it turned
out, Governor Sanford stands
solid once again.
Solicitor Lester Chalmers,
who is voluntarily giving up the
post at the end of this term,
has bigger things ahead. He was
also the star in the sports bribe
cases.
WISDOM'S BEGINNING. :.
We were looking through the
new national weekly newspaper,
"The National Observer, the
other day and ran across this:
Zone of the most important
things you can know is. what
you don't know. And one of the
most sensible things you can do
lis. admit it."
We found it was lifted from
the Carteret County News
Times of Morehead City.

al car market. and Ford had

worship but only in the outward
forms of worship. Their hearts are
untouched and this silence is the
silence that is unbroken in the
presence of God"
The Japanese have a story that
is quite parallel to this one A
NippOneSe-SO the story runs
died and went to the Nipponese
heaven. That he might adjust him
self quickly to his new surround
ings he was given an angel guide.
The angel took him into
tremendously large room with tier
after tier of shelves as far as eyes
could see. Each shelf was covered
with curly little objects that re-
sembled shells from the sea. ''What
are these?" inquired the new ar
rival. Ears" was the answer, "hu-
man ears" and why are they
here?" queried the surprised Nip
ponese. "They are the ears" said
the angel, "of people who while
they were upon earth heard. the
Word of God, but it was only words
to them. 1t never went farther
than their ears, and so, when. they
died, their ears were the only part
Of them that was religious. Only
their ears, therefore, went to heav-
en-, the rest did not"
Continuing their trip they came
to another equally large room
with the same limitless number of
shelves. These shelves were laden
with strengthening objects also.
Long and grotesquely twisted, they
Immediately aroused the curiosity
of the Nipponese. "And what are
these?" he asked "These" said the
angel, "are the tongues of men
and women who while upon earth
faithfully and sometimes almost
endlessly said their prayers. But
their hearts were not in them;
they were only words, words,
words. So when they died their
tongues alone were religious, and
their tongues alone went to heav-
en-; the rest did not"
And what does the Bible say?
farther than their ears it advises,
BE We doors of the Word and not
hearers only" To those who give
voice to long and often-repeated
prayers it speaks this warning:
use not vain repetitions as the
heather do, for they think they
shall be heard for their much
speaking. Be ye not, therefore, like
unto them"
SO goodbye, Mr. Caiaphas. May
you have taught us all that
religion must be far more than
outward forms; more than ears and
tongues. 1t must touch the heart,
or it is only 'tinkling cymbals and
sounding brass"
