The Committee on Bank
ing and .Currency brought
a bill to the floor of the
House which provided for
the manufacture of one
dollar denomination coins,
as well as a change in the
design of fifty-cent coins.
It also provided that these
coins would be minted of
cupro-nickel on copper,
rather than from silver.
This is the same type coin
as the present quarters
and dimes. The new dollar
coin would have carried
the portrait of the late
, President Eisenhower.
The basic argument for
the passage of this legisla
tion was the fact that only
a very small percentage of
the one and one-fourth bil
lion silver half dollars
minted since 1963 are actu
ally circulating.
This coin legislation was

considered on the suspen
sion calendar, which re
quires a two-thirds vote
for approval. The record
vote was 205 yeas to 140
nays, which was not the
required two-thirds major
ity. Therefore, the legis
lation failed.
All members of the North
Carolina delegation who
were present voted against
the bill, except Represen
tative Galifinakis, who
voted yes.
The House approved two
education bills, one to
provide for educational as
sistance to gifted and tal
ented children, and the
other to provide special
programs for children with
specific learning disabili
ties.
The special problems of
the type student involved
in these programs have
long been ignored. Cer
tainly, it is important that
we challenge the gifted to
their maximum capacity.
By the same token, these
children with specific
learning disabilities also
must have help.
They are not to be con
fused with the mentally
retarded. Rather, this per
tains to children with
slight perceptual or motor
handicaps which interfere
with their ability, for ex
ample, to perceive words,
colors or mathematical
figures. The basic focus of
this legislation is to train
teachers to give these chil
dren the proper assistance.
The need is evidenced by
the fact that the 52 million
children in both elementary
and secondary schools in
the United States, one to
three million have these
learning disabilities.
Also approved was a ma
jor appropriation bill cov
ering the general subject
of public works, providing
funds to the Civilian Corps
of Engineers, the Panama
Canal, the Federal Water
Pollution Control Adminis
tration, the Bureau of Re
clamation, power agencies
of the Department of the
Interior, the Tennessee Val
ley Authority, and the Ato
mic Energy Commission.
The total amount of money
appropriated was in excess
of $4.5 billion.
A heated legislative fight
took place on the section
covering appropriations for
water pollution control.
The Bureau of the Budget
had originally requested
$214 million, but the ap
propriations committee in
creased this to S6OO million.
This appropriation is based
on estimates submitted by
the individual states of
their need for federal funds
to match local participa
tion. For example, the

Make Church - Going A Habit ...
GOD'S JUDGMENT OF ISRAEL
International Sunday School Lesson for Oct. 19 j
Memory Selection. “Turn ye from your evil I
ways, and keep my commandments and my sta- I
tutes, according to all the law which I command- I
ed your fathers, and which I sent to you by my I
servants the prophets.”—ll Kings 17:13.
Lesson Text: Hosea 4:1 to 5:14; Amos 7-8; II I
Kings 17.
In this lesSon we shall study some of the causes
of the downfall of the Northern Kingdom, and I
at the same time perhaps we shall more clearly I
understand that the strength of a nation (and I
the enduring quality of that strength) lies—in I
the main—in the commitment of its people to I
the moral and spiritual standards which are ac
ceptable in the sight of God.
There is no doubt, after the experience on
Mount Carmel, as covered by our last lesson, I
that there was a renewed covenant of faith by j
the people with the God of their fathers and of j
Israel. Sadly enough, however, it did not last j
The worship of Baal and Asherah was, by that j
time, on ingrained habit, and the habit (like all j
habits) was insidious, and hard to break.
Man has always been inclined to have a short I
memory—especially when it comes to something I
unpleasant. Alas, along with the unpleasantness, I
he also sometimes forgets the lesson. So it was I
with the children of Israel. They rejoiced as |
they came through each hardship they encount- .
ered (and they were many) and revelled in the
times of peace and prosperity, completely for
getting that God had fulfilled His promise and
delivered them from their enemies, bringing
them unto the land “flowing with milk and -
honey.” They became complacent and spiritually
“flabby.”
Thus it was that God finally lost patience
with Israel, and caused her to be taken into
bondage by the Assyrians.
If we study the background behind this lesson
we see moves and counter moves that might
well apply to the plight of the world today. A
majority of the Israelites were deported by the
conquerors, and they were replaced by people
of the conquering nation. Intermarriage re
sulted, and this, again, had its impact on history.
God had been long-suffering in regard to
Israel. He had never let her misdemeanors go
unpunished, but He had constantly sought to re
store her to her commitment to Him. The pro
phets Elijah and Elisha had called the people
back to God. Amos had warned Israel many
times of the coming judgment of God upon her,
and had urged the people to repent before it
was too late. But Israel had wandered too far
from the path of God’s appointment for her.
A good parent is oftentimes known as a stern
parent. That that parent is not permissive, nev
ertheless is no indication that he is not a loving
parent. Rather it is indicative that he takes his
responsibilities as a parent very seriously. He
is intent on raising children who will be worth
while human beings —a form of love which

We’d be lost, wouldn’t we, if suddenly com
puters were withdrawn from our daily life? We
have become dependent on them to schedule air
plane flights, point out scholastic aptitudes and
aid the Internal Revenue Service in checking in
come tax returns.
But there are things a computer can’t do. It
can’t make a home a better home or a man a
better man. A computer can’t heal sorrows and
disappointments. It can swallow up a lot of sta
tistics and clank out a lot of conclusions, but it
can’t direct a man to God’s love.
As today’s world is run more and more by
automation, we need the help of the Church to
guide us in the spiritual realm of life. We need
to experience God’s great love for all men. In our
mechanical world, only the Church can help us
