Probably because it is an elec- 1
tion year, the tubs are being i
thumped loudly to increase un
employment benefits as a reces
sion panacea. Both increasing
weakly benefits, nr

f 'ace of the present s3s per wee’-
average.
* * *
Yet there exists some substan
tia.! evidence that thousands, if
not millions, now prefer to sit
home and draw S2B per week
than go to work for the federal
minimum wage of S4O per week.
Alter all. from the S2B per week
there are no deductions for in
come tax, unemployment tax, so
rial security, union dues and
other deductions.
* * *
It is significant that every year
stare 1947 2.8% of the work force
has been idle, even under the
manpower shortage conditions
that existed during Korea and
immediately afterward.
• * *
For even with the present av
erage of S2B per week, a man of
any talent at all can live as well
as his working brother whose
check is dipped for all kinds of
faxes, and dues, et al, et al. A
quick odd job for an hour or two
now and then, perhaps his own
vegetable garden, a little of this
and a little of that, and a lot of
unemployment benefit recipients
virtually live the life of Riley
with no strain and time for fish
ing, hunting, just plain loafing,
even visits tc. the old country.

create a new leisure class.
* * It!
And of course, the bulk of the
money that goes into building up
these reserves for the idle comes
from a tax on employers based
on their payrolls.
* » *
For example, New York has
raised employers’ tax another 1 j
of 1 % on their payroll to raise the
unemployment benefits.
# # *
While Big Steel or Big Autos
could conceivably pay this extra
money merely by passing onto
the consumer, to thousands of
small business firms, this would
be an added burden that could
not be passed on.
* * *
And of course, as published in
the Congressional Record, the
average wage earner make* $76
per week at the present time, or
a lake home pay of less than $63
per week, out of which he must
bear the additional costs of job
transportation, work clothes, etc,
$ * *
Thus, It seems apparent, that
if by being without work, a man
could get ssl per week, as pro
posed, there would be a powerful
incentive to stay home and "let
George do the work ”
* $ *
And thus, not only would the
nations Independent business be
further burdened , . . but los* of
national income would soar even
tually into the billions.
* * *
In addition, this would be con
trary to the sound principles ex
pressed many times by the na
tion’s independent businessmen
voting through the National Fed
eration of Independent Business.
y *■ *
That principle is that instead
of continuing to shackle business
with higher taxes of all sorts,
reduce taxes ou independent
business and watch free enter
i prise provide employment.

his sermon was: "The Fativ.
Who Listened to the Word of
God.” The message was full of
thought and was enjoyed by all
present.
Both the choirs rendered lovely
music with Mrs. W. Gaynor at
the piano and Mr. Lemuel Smith
at the organ. Mrs. Mary Gant wife
of our presiding elder, who is a

j by Dr. Wisner that Mrs. Gant nod
related to him that God had call

the ministry of His Holy Gospel,
Mrs. Gant was called on to spe.uk,
which she did so in such a beau

NASHVILLE Tire second
quarter for this year has been a
very successful one for Galatia
Church. With a closely knitted
membership of less than 100; with
i determination to labor for God.
and his church, under„the capable
leadership of the pastor. Rev. G
R. Ferry the members realise
that working together much can
be accomplished.
The financial report made by
the secretary, Mr. P. B. Richard*-
son, ending , the second quarter j
! was as follows:
j Class and table collections
for Steward purposes - $436.50
! Collected from spring
rally 243.13
Collected from church
anniversary 837.40
Collected on Trustee
Sunday 138.77
Miscellaneous receipt*-... 100.04
TOTAL $1145.24
A church is only as strong as
' it s leadership We are thankful to
God, and to the AME conference
organization for having ordained
a man so dedicated to Christian
service as our pastor. We feel that
the life he lives, hs service, his
zeal and his encouragement, has
done much to strengthen the
membership in Galatia Church.
On May 4, one of the outstand
ing events of the quarter was the
Kittrell Junior College Choir, In
concert, sponsored by the Rocky
Mount District and the presiding
Elder of the District Rev. G. W-
Larkin,
Galatia was host for tha Dis
trict. Kittrell College has a well-;
trained, sms!! group of talented
young singers, who gave a superb
performance. We were honored on
this same occasion to have with us
Bishop Frank Madison Reid, and
Dr R. W. Wisner, president of
Kittrell college.
During the month of April, Ga
latia celebrated its eighty first
anniversary. Services were held
each evening beginning the twen
tv first through the twenty sev
enth. Visiting ministers from local
churches participated in the serv
ices each evening. During the an
niversary sendees the chux'ch col
lected $227.40.

"JUVENILE MISBEHAVIOR”: j
Wo notice that the Raleigh Po
| lice Department has set up a
I “Speakers Bureau” within the de
! partment. According to the an ■
; nouncement several of the top
i brass in the department will make
up this speakers list and these
speakers have been termed u. •;
thorities on several subjects. One i
of these subjects listed is “Juve- j
nile Misbehavior and Related!
Matters.” We suppose "Related
Matters" concerns itself with why j
juveniles misbehave.
All of this may bo very fine and J
as it should be We have to won- \
j der though if these "experts'’ j
really know why juveniles mis
behave and if they know why do
they refuse to dc the things that
will curb some of this mlsbe-1
havior, As long as the Raleigh j
police department allow teenage!
school boys and girls to frequent
: whiskey joints, spend school hours j
in pool rooms and gambling dens, j
the department is not. indicating
it know* or cares too much about i
juvenile misbehavior.
And a* long as it allows the dis
orderly pla-ces that cater to juve
nile* to continue their operation,
it doesn’t seem that the depart
ment is too concerned over "Re
lated Matters ” There is a great
deal the Raleigh police depart
| ment could do to curb juvenile i
1 mihbehavior in Raleigh. We do i
i not believe that a speakers bureau
of top police officers is going to j
curb it. A little more alertness!
and determination on the part of !
the police department will do j
more good than hours and hours
of speechnmking.
ORCHIDS TO THE YWCA: We I
have a big bunch of orchids forj
the Sojourner Truth Branch, Y -
WCA for the courageous and for- j
sighted action In taking over and |
fixing up the old quarters of tne
Colonade as a recreation center
for cor teenagers. The Colonadej
had quite an unsavory reputation
as a notorious hangout for per- ,
sons of all ages.
As a matter of fact, many
persons have condemned the
"Y* officials for having the
'“nerve.” to take the "Y” pro
gram into a place that had
such a bad name. That type
«f destructive criticism conies j
from persons who do not real
ly understand the mission of
j Christ. It comes from persons
j who with their selfconceiied
piety, would condemn those
| who are Christian enough to
j take the program of Christi
i amity where it is most needed,
| If young boys and girls could j
j frequent the Colonade and par -|
| take of its shady doings, why isn’t:
| this the exact spot for these same j
! young people to come and partake
|of the Christian Influence gen
erated by the YWCA?
If you. who have held up your
hand in holy horror over the very j
thought of such a thing, would
throw away your hyprocrisy and!
and volunteer your services in j
helping to promote this grand!
idea, you would be making a dis- j
tinct contribution to needs of our j
young people. Why not do that,!
today?

erated the grand old Father. Job
' who was such a good Father and
worked hard for his children and j
his family and lo the Father must j
counsel his children and live a
striaght and righteous life.
He explained how if we live i
close to our heavenly Father, he 1
la ready to listen when we call j
and b«t there when we seek him, |
early or late but If we are prone j
to wander we cannot so easily find 1
him. No man in the world should i
be to happy a* the man of God.
It la one continual source of!
gladness. He can look up and say j
"Gad is my Father, Christ is my
pMSown and the church is my
Mother. 1 * The eermon was enjoyed
by *ll and everyone present felt

Now^uCanCaljFish!
Tested for years before being
placed on the market, a revolu
tionary, much talked about fish
caller is proving a boon to fisher
men to attract ali types of fish.
The idea is simple: the caller,
j Krafty, is a patented buzzer and
replaceable flashlight battery
combination that makes a hum
like an insect (food to fish). Put
into the water on, a separate line,
it attracts fish to the vicinity.
However, like duck or goose
calls, the fish caller usurps none
of the sportsman’s skill. He still
must use the right bait, and must
puli the fi: h into the boat after
they bite. But if there are fish
within “hearing distance,” Kraf
ty will call them and that’s half
the battle. Thus, the caller also
i serves as a fish “finder.”
This unique fish caller is being
marketed by Birch-Kraft Cor
poration of Milwaukee, Wiseon
, s»n* hi-nded by Frank V. Birch, a
Fast President of Lions Interna
tional. Birch will mail a folder of
testimonial? from famous fisher
men to anyone interested and
would also like to receive state
ments from fishermen who have
ased his fish caller.
