* SENATOR SAM ERVIN * SAYS * I Washington During the past I; tWo weeks the South has begun to B set forth its ease against the civil L rights bill. Senators from southr tern states have detailed th'e ■Mharge that this bill which turns into contempts of courts in order to bypass constitutional t,guarantees will destroy far more .rights than it will ever protect. . The debate has been made on a ! high plane, based on reason and not emotion, marked by good j wmper and not bitterness. Better Understood From the debate and the press coverage the issues involved in the legislation have been disclos ed. The provisions and the wide scope of the bill have become bet ter understood by the nation in general. The nation is more aware that title of a bill, in this case a Civil Rights Act, does not make the bill good. The na tion is more, aware that no mat ter how laudable a goal may be it is also necessary to consider the . means by which a goal is to be 1 reached. Reconstruction Revived Great attention has been cen tered on Part 111 of the bill and there is hope that it will be strick en out. This section authorizes . the use of federal injunctions [ where one alleges he is denied v "the qual protection of the laws.” \ The language is so broad that it would cover not only school inte gration and integration of parks and playgrounds but almost ev s ery conceivable law. This section is tied-in with the old Reconstruc tion statute which permits the use of the Armed Forces to en force judicial decrees. When the , Attorney General was first ques tioned about the use of troops on February. 16 before the Consti tutional Rights Subcommittee he called such questions “irresponsi ble” and appealed to the Chair man that they be abandofied be cause they might reflect on the Weekly Devotional ’, Column By JAMES Mae&ENZIE ✓ (continued from last week) One of the marks of Christ on bfre Apostle Paul was the mark of humility. Paul’s view of him self was as low as his view of Christ was high. In the meas ure that he exalted his Lord he debased himself. Paul had reason to be proud. Most of us do not, hut Paul did. He was blessed with a keen in- 1 tellect and a good_ education. Someone has said, “If you have Greek, Hebrew and Latin, do not put them where Pilate did. at the head of'Christ, but where Paul did, at His feet.” “What things were gain to me," wrote Paul, “I count but loss for Christ.” And this was the secret of his .success: His humility. F. B. Meyer, that wonderful saint of another age, when he had become an old man, full of years and of the Holy Spirit, wrote, “I used to think that God’s best' blessings •*were on shelves, each one above the other; and that as we grew taller in Christian character the more easily we could reach them. Now I know that His choice bless ings are on the lowest shelves, and that only as we humble our selves, and stoop, do we have ac cess to them. The secret of humility is view ing things in their right perspec tive. Too many, I fear, attempt to attain humility by thinking low thoughts of themselves; and fail, because their thoughts are still -gels-centered. The secret is to forget self, and mediate Upon God. It was when Isaiah saw the Lord, 1 high and lifted up, that Isaiah be . came bumble (Isaiah 6); just.so, vvhen we see God as He really is, 'Jfoly, Just and Righteous, we shall debase and forget self, and be truly humble. , - : Another mark of the Lord Je sus on His greatest apostle -was , that of suffering. Famine, naked ness, peril, sword; Paul experi enced them all. Tribiilation, dis tress, persecution; he knew these too. Look at him! Sdsiyed body, chastened by hunger, thirst and whipped, stoned and left Vdead; ridiculed and spit upon, forsaken by his friends, impris |oiled by his enemies. Did Paul Complain ? We see him in prison at Pltilippi, charged with exer freedom of speech. You A4. President. The proponents insist that such power will not be used. Our question is that if such pow er is not to be used why was it included in the legislation? Our memories are not so short as to have forgotten that once there were troops in southern communi ties in Reconstruction days. ' Fairness Must Prevail Senator O’Mahoney of Wyom ing has introduced another im portant amendment to the bill which guarantees jury trials. In a memorable speech a few days ago this Senator, who is a great liberal in the tradition of Sena tors Borah and Norris, set forth the jury trial issue squarely: “The question is,” he said, “do mem- 1 bers of the Senate want to take away the right of trial by jury which how exists in cases which are in the purview of the meas ure before us?” He described the bill further: “But here we have a bill, which, if enacted, by the elimination of jury trials would institute in the United States of America something which has never existed in law in this land, l at least not since the appointed governors of the King of England sought the Stamp Act ... to deny the American colonists the free dom they insisted they possessed ...” It is indeed regrettable that President Eisenhower has chosen to support the denial of jury trial to Americans. This position is hard to reconcile with his re marks on the importance of local government and the rights of the individual. It is to be hoped that the de bate will continue in a spirit of fairness and a willingness to con sider the merits on the legisla tion. It is to be hoped that men will be just in their consideration and that they will not impose in tolerable law upon the South in the wish for political gain. I plain? Few have suffered, phy | sically and mentally, for the | Christian faith as Paul; yet he writes, “Our light affliction, which is but for a moment.” There is yet another mark of Christ on Paul; the mark of love, of a passion for souls. I will con sider that next week. “Nickels” Money Used In Weevil Research Much of North Carolina’s alfal fa crop was saved this year by the alertness of agricultural re searchers and farmers who iden-. tified and treated for the dreaded alfalfa weevil.

Many farmers saVed their valuable hay crop by applying the proper chemicals proved effective in research tests conducted at N. C. State College. “Nicekls for Know-How”, the State’s unique fund raising pro gram, made, possible the initiation of research studies dealing with methods of controlling the plant pest. J. R. Dogger, “Nickels Scien tits” at N. C. State College, con ducted studies on chemicals for controlling the weevil and the proper method of application. This study resulted in a savings of thousands of dollars to Tar Heel hay growers. The program that supported this work, Nickels for Know-How, will be voted on August 23. Farmers and other feed and fer tilizer users will vote on whether to continue for another three years their program of self-as sistance in agricultural research and education. The program is unique in the nation. It cost most farmers less than a dollar per year to support ! the more than 50 research pro jects underway solving problems in North Caroline’s agriculture. The program has caused wide spread favorable comment throughout the nation and North Carolina farmers have generally been commended for their fore sight in supporting such a pro gram. Taxes take 24 cents out of every dollar spent for the pur chase of a new automobile. c ariTof "thanks I wish to thank all my friends and relatives for the beautiful flowers, cards, gifts and prayers I and every other act of kindness shown me during my recent ill ness. —Mrs. Oscar Perry p Commissioners’ ] Proceedings | V ?

The night we were to leave, Muriel, our ten year-old daughter, developed a terrible earache with high fever. Aspirin had no effect whatso ever. As the pain shot into her ear, Muriel would scream spas modically. She could not sleep, and it was so very late to call for the doctor. So I resorted to prayer. "My first prayer did not seem to be very effective, for the sharp cries of pain continued to break forth. "1 decided to pray again. “But first I talked to Muriel. I said, ‘Muriel, 1 want to tell you one of the ways that God works and uses to heal us. When you get into a taxi, you must tell the driver where you want to go arid then- he takes you there. You are his boss at that particu lar moment, because he takes you wherever you tell him to. “ ‘Now, inside of you is one who drives for you also. We call it the sub-conscious mind. The thoughts, ideas and desires that we feed this mind has much to do with the physical, mental and spiritual condition that we are in. “ ‘So you say to the driver (your sub-conscious mind) that you want him to bring a fresh supply of blood through your ear. He is to work all night and take away all the poison and the pain. In the morning you will be well.’ "I put my hands over her ears and said, ‘Muriel, whatever method is used, remember it is ard $5.00, for Hewitt Taylor $5.00, total, $25.00; Edward G.

DRIVER HELP HER God Who heals us, and I ask God to heal you.’ Then I re peated over and over again verses 1-4 of' Psalms 103. Es pecially the verse ‘Who healeth all thy diseases.’ “I must have had my hands on her ears from 20 to 30 minutes. In a little while she went sound asleep. The next morning there was no sign of pain and her temperature was perfectly nor mal.” The Rev. R. R. of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, recently sent this Btory of his daughter’s healing to me. He used the laying on of hands as a help to healing. No one but God can heal, but this is a stimulant to faith. It is the pin-pointing of a particular mo mmit to believe that God heals There are many hindrances to healing, but there are two things we must do to regain health. First, let your iniquities be for given. Get rid of selfishness, dis honesty, bitterness, jealousy, all ? e t, re ?° get even . any evil habit, thought or action. With si?.l forg,ven and with unlimited raith on our part in an almightv loving God and Father ALL DISEASES can be healed. Second, we must think right! God doesn’t want us to be sick. He wants us to be well or else He would not have placed heal ing powers in our bodies which fight germs, heal wounds and knit bones. So when we are spiritually cleansed, then God s power to heal can go to work on our bodies—providing WE BE LIEVE His will is for our health.
