(tollman's Views Editor'* note ? This Is the eighth in > series of articles by Heinz R oilman, industrialist, Wsynesville, N C. By HEINZ KOLLMAN In last week's columns, I talked about some of the things that the Russians did during the last 40 years, and I want to show today why it is so dif ficult, and per haps impossible, for the people in Russia to over throw their gov ernment, which they must hate with a passion. There are in Russia only a hnut 3 or 4 mil lion people who are actual mem bers of the communist party. The exact figure has never been known. But these 3 or 4 million members of the communist party, together with the army, are armed to the teeth for one purpose only ? to avoid an uprising of the masses. That is what the rulers are afraid of, and that is what the rulers give to the members of the communist party all the good things in life all the conveniences and comforts, so that those 3 million party mem bers would really have a lot to lose if a change could come about in the regime. They, naturally, not only would lose all the conveniences they now enjoy; they would lose to the last man their heads, and a small be ginning in the right direction, only unfortunately not at the right time has been with a few commun ist heads in Hungary, about which I will write another time. Now, even if you are real hon est, brave and not scared of a thing in life, it would be awfully hard for you to decide right now to dive right smack into a firing ma chine gun, and I doubt if we could find the whole United States a hun dred people who together, as a group, would merrily march a gainst a half-dozen tanks that are shooting at them. That just isn't a fair fight; that is not human and people aren't born to do that. It is one thing to be willing and fight for a good cause, but it is a very different thing to just throw one's life away against inhuman odds. That is why the communist have been able to celebrate their 40th anniversary not so very long ago. Don't forget that it has not hap pened so often that a strong dicta torship has been overthrown by internal revolutions. Hitler got overthrown not by an internal re volution (though it was tried many times) ? he lost his life by our winning the war. Let's also not for get that no country on earth ever has made the same kind of ar rangements as the communist party rulers have made in Russia, in order to be quite sure that they won't be thrown out of business. Now, since World War n, the Russians have tried desperately, Mr. and Mrs. J. W.

MWI, IT. a WORDS OF LIbE Andrew* Pmkjterlu Ckmrch Eageae Witherspoon, Jr., Mtahter Andrews, N. C. CHRISTIAN RESPONSIBILITY "Yoa are the salt of the earth." Matthew S:U The month of July naturally brings to mind Citizenship. We who are Christians cannot overlook the relationship between Christianity and Citizenship. We must remem ber, as Beatitudes tell us, that we are citizens of another Kingdom, Kingdom of Heaven. As Citizen? of that Kingdom, we have a great deal of privilege. But always in the Christian faith, along with priv ilege goes responsibility. Jesus describes this responsibil ity by the use of two figures, salt and light, both of which are in dispensable and irreplaceable. To day we shall look at the first fig ure, "You are the salt of the earth." Reference is made to in dividuals ? YOU ? the common i people, men and women in every walk of life, who have found your way into the Kingdom. Jesus says "You are the salt of the earth." He does not say you ought to be, or someday you will be, but you are now, in this pres ent time, during these periods of salt of the earth." He says that shalt of the earth." He says that the individual is important, but His message is for all people, and the changed individual must per form the task of changing society. Salt is used to season. A child once said, "Salt is what makes food taste bad when you don't put it in." The Christian is to make life purer, loveiler, more enjoyable, cleaner, for everyone. He is not to be a "holy Joe," always wearing a long look, but he is to be one who makes life more wholesome and purer for everyone. He is to make life more wholesome not only for our children, but for the children of thes lums.not only the American children, but the child ren of Europe, Asia, Africa. Salt is used to preserve. This is more applicable to th4 time of Jesus, when there was no refriger ation. Salt destroys germs and prevents decay. There are still agents of decay working today ? agents that would destroy the foun dations of morality, truth, decency, honesty, and order. The Christian is one who must destroy the decay around him, one who must pre serve those things and ideals which are Christian. But let us not stop without notic ing the danger that exists, as well as the doom. There is the danger that the salt will lose its savor. This happens when the Christian does not affect his environment, but rather is affected by his en vironment. He yields to the world, rather than lifting up the world to Christ. This results in the casting out of the salt. Jesus says that Christians who yield to worldliness would be no better than a roadway for the causal traffic of the world. For the salt, when useless, is cast out to be trodden ynderfoot. This is the fate of the Church when she fails to follow her true calling, when she turns people away from and very successfully, to conquer more and more countries in the hope that they will have enough famine fodder (human beings) so that they can afford to lose in a war up to 100 million men without getting too weak. They got 500 mil lion Chinese under their yoke, and they have in the satellite countries another 100 million directly under their rule. her doors because of bar false way of life. [ . Are you the "salt of the earth," or have 70a lost your aavorT Let u* not forget our responsibility as Christian Citizens, as we walk in the footsteps of Him who said, "Follow Me." GARDEN TIME It is time to ?ow seed for some of the fall crop vegetables which are transplanted Seed of tomatoes need to be sown without delay and broccoli, cauliflower, collards, brussels sprouts and cabbage should be sown in the next week or so. Take care of successive plant ings of such vegetables as snap beans, butterbeans and sweet corn. The corn ear worm is particularly bad on late sweet corn but this i? such a delightful vegetable for eat ing on the cob and for quick freez ing that you may wish to control the worm. If you do, spray with one gallon of 25 per cent emulsi fiable DDT coocentrate and one gallon of light white mineral oil to twenty-five gallons of water. This formula may be reduced to meet your needs. Make applications two or three -days apart, beginning when the first silks appear. Spray tips of all ears whether or not they are silked. Does it pay to sucker sweet corn? Some say yes, while others say no. I do not believe it is worth the trouble.
