It has been common knowledge for some time that the tobacco program has been a sore spot with Secretary Benson. It is th only commodity that has proven through the years that it can op erate in the black under a sys tem of stable price supports and rigid acreage controls. Tobacco is the only farm commodity that is still supported at 90 per cent of parity, by law, and the tobacco program has proven the weak ness of the flexible price support program Secretary Benson has advocated for many years. Quite naturally, any time a problem comes up in tobacco, Secretary Benson suggests that flexible price supports—or sup ports based on previous years' market averages—is the answer. Repeatedly. Congress has turn ed a deaf ear on such suggestions i for the simple reason that flexi ble price supports have all but ruined the other commodity pro grams. All along, due to the soundness; and success of the tobacco pro gram, it has been the feeling that j Secretary Benson would not! make a real fight on tobacco. But i what has happened in the past two weeks proves that he is de- 1 termined to revamp the entire tobacco program and do every-1 thing in his power to put it under j flexible price supports. Dr. Bruce Whitaker Speaks To Graduates Dr. Bruce E. Whitaker, presi dent of Chowan College, preach ed the commencement sermon to the graduates of Edenton Junior- Senior High School in the audi torium Sunday night. The speak er told the graduates to think seriously about the curriculum of life, emphasizing three D’s —De- mocracy, Direction and Diety. “Despite what you have learn ed in school and what you know,” he said, “you have a difficult life ahead. In your way of living you should have certain ideas and goals and make use of what you haves Democracy is close to, the heart of God.” “Know where you are going, and be careful how you get there,” said the speaker. “It is important to have goals, but you might have worthy means and take the right road, not using un fair methods and practices.

DOUTHAT Assistant Vice President* Government delations Division of the National Association of Manufacturers NO COMMENT" is a report of incidents on the national scene, *nd does not necessarily retied •'TAM policy or position. Washington, D. C. Economy I forces in Washington are now convinced that they have a vastly improved opportunity to hold the line against the astronomical spending programs of the New Dealers. There are a number of reasons for this increased confidence. Os major importance is the effective “grass roots” campaign against wasteful and unessential govern ment spending stimulated by President Eisenhower and by in dustry. Economy advocates are quick to point out that their ultimate success depends on the degree of support received from the people back home between now and the adjournment of Congress. Mem bers of Congress are responsive to such sentiment. The prospects of obtaining a balanced budget for the fiscal year beginning next July are greatly increased, too, by the strong upward movement of the nation’s economy. Indications are that this will ! boost the Government’s tax rev enue considerably above the amount forecast in President Eis enhour’s budget message last January. But the economy advocates em phasize that they want to hold spending to essentials, regardless •| of the amount of revenue, and use surplus funds for tax reduc i tion or for lowering the national debt. —•1 _ i ■ LIFE Jffj by ORAL ROBERTS BELIEVE AND YOU WILL SEE “Show me a miracle. Then I will believe/’ many people say today. This attitude is the opposite of the Bible teaching on the subject of faith. “Seeing” is not "believing,” but believing is seeing! The Scripture says, “If thou wouldest believe, thou should est see the glory of God” (John 11:40). When Lazarus died, his sis ter, Martha, said: “Lord, if yo’u had been here (physically, so I could Jiave seen youl, mj/ brother would not have died. ’ Seeing is believing! That is what she thought. Jesus said, “Believe and you WILL SEE the wonder of what God can do.” "Believe and you will see!” Your eyes can see only what your heart believes. If your mind rejects the possibility of a miracle, then the eyes cannot see a miracle when it happens. God says, “Believing is seeing.” True sight is of the soul. A friend saw a little blind child receive her sight through prayer. He said, “All my life I have believed God can heal. Mr. Eisenhower, encouraged by the prospective increase in tax revenue, has raised his financial, sights. In addition to a balanced - budget, which he has been advo cating for some time, he now wants to begin paying off the debt. j Here are his views, as express-! ed to a recent news conference: | “We are on an upturn in our economy. And at this very time we are talking about a balanced budget like it was something evil. My attitude is entirely different. I say a balanced budget is a mini mum target that we are looking for. At this kind of time, we BELKTYLER’SI Edenton WASH N’ WEAR Continues Through SATURDAY, MAY 30th Big Crowds Have Saved Many Doll ars During The First Week Os Our Sale ■ \ ’ " * * T.

When Jesus said, “Blessed are the eyes that see these things,” he was speaking of spiritual as well as physical sight. The Bible teaches us that God is a Spirit. Therefore, while God cannot be seen physically with the eyes, he certainly can be “seen” mentally and felt with the heait by those who have faith and believe that he exists. Some people do not have to see any visual sign to believe' but, unfortunately, many peo ple must see something “con crete” in order to believe. As the friend mentioned above said, “All my life I* have believed. . . . Now 1 see it with my own eyes.” He had the ability to exercise his faith. From his words, he believed “all his lire although he hadn’t actually “seen” any miracles, happen. But once he DID see the miracle, he gave God the credit . . . because he knew that God has the power to heal. Oh, that all of us today would turn our faith loose and say, not “show me a miracle and I will believe,” but rather, “ I believe, and I expect to see a miracle!” ought to be getting some surplus es, we ought to be paying off , something on our debt.” There is considerable opinion also that tax rate reform at this time would remove formidable road blocks to further economic j expansion. Industry supports ! identical bills introduced by Rep | resentatives Herlong (D-Fla.) and Baker (R-Tenn.) which, among other things, would lower person al and corporation income tax rates to a maximum of 47 per cent by a series of five annual reductions. Tax rate reform could result from an intensive inquiry into in come tax laws to be started on 1 November 2 by the; House Ways and Means Committee. The upturn in the economy, to gether with an amazing improve ment- in the employment situa tion, definitely has -taken some of the steam out of the New Deal ers’ big spending program to combat the late recession. It is a matter of record that the New Dealers and. the AFL CIO were demanding huge gov ernment spending as , an anti-re cession measure, while the Eis enhower Administration and con servatives in Congress were vig orously resisting such proposals as unessential. In his budget message last Jan uary, Mr. Eisenhower told-Con gress that “we are now entering a period of national prosperity and high employment” and that continued improvement in busi ness conditions is expected to provide the $77-.l billion budget balancing revenue which he pre dicted for the next fiscal year. The fact that Mr. Eisenhower was proved right, at least up to the present time, has made it easier for him more recently to challenge the Congressional at titude toward some of his legisla tive proposals. - He is bolstered, too, by the royale mm »2 PINT ipaß|i »ISrtttt»HoM GKAIH - to ftoor CHARLES JACQUIN •« Cit. lie., Phils..
