United States with rockets, if any move is made against Fidel Castro in Cuba, is the most threatening and insult ing challenge to United States power which has occurred in the history of the country. It is hard to see how such in sulting threats can be allowed to' achieve their purpose that Is, an inactive reply by the United States to the direct com munist threat in Cuba. Indeed, the , very threats themselves make it clear that a dangerous situation has developed, which threatens the United States and the Western Hemisphere, and that the Castro government must be removed from office, j; Since it is, now obvious that this revolution , was accomplish ed ' wiih ' communist aid, it is justifiable for the United . States to use J. every means of under cover ; aid to Castro opponents to ' overthrow the government. An economic blockade, which has been suggested, would be the first and best step to initi ate the squeeze on Cuba. The Russians will attempt to ignore this blockade, but the United States could give ample warn ings and could, if necessary, con fiscate ships and force them to discharge their cargoes else where. If necessary, Russian losses could be made good from the financial standpoint. 'The threat of Khrushchev brings up the possibility that Soviet rockets may some day be Stationed in . Cuba,' 1 and before the situation comes to this the United States had better move with its South American neigh borsto oust the Cas,tro gov ernment, preferably by revolution..-' Rights And Responsibility In the Republic of the Congo, a country which was only re cently created in Africa, things have" gorreVfrom bad to worse. I ft' Republic, which gained its Independence only July ist'te a tjying example of the futility in granting rights and responsibili ties to '. people before they are ready to assume them with re sponsibility and intelligence Her. We ha vie ' ah! eiarnpie' : Hi ' a European power turning over, in dependence ; to ; a native mass, and immediate mutiny and tur moil and even revolt result ing.; ',' .-''"..'' The communist ;7. propaganda line .concerning the exploitation of native peoples by capitalism has sometimes prompted the Western democracies to make premature moves in an effort to exhibit our democratic consci ence to the world. The United States was eager and too quick to- recognize Fidel Castro and we exhibited .a sense f of poli tical -naivety in this case. In the ' case of' the ' Republic of the Congo, the Belgian gov ernment was probably wrong in assuming that the natives were leady to establish a democracy and demonstrate the responsi bility which is required to make a democracy work. ' v People can be given too much freedom,' and too much responsi bility before they are ready for the intelligent exercise' of the powers and rights granted them. And sometimes it is better for a race which has demonstrated the field of democratic govern leadership and achievement in ment to lead and supervise-backward peoples rather than to grant them immediate independ ence before inhabitants are cap able of exercising, cherishing and protecting it.

Pursuing our study on "God's Justice and Mercy," today adults will want to consider 'the very pertinent question: What signs of decay are apparent in the life of our communities and our nation? Reading our Biblical text for today, we see that as the na tion prospered, the Israelites turned more and more to idola try. And few men in Israel's history ever unleashed so sting ing an attack on idolatry as did Hosea. Speaking for God, he tried to shake the people loose from 'their proud, unworthy lead ership. Hosea believed that God should have a hand in deciding the leadership of his people, as in 'the days of Moses. So for midable were the crimes against God, so ridden was the nation with occurrences that a ' holy God hated and despised, and so in league was the priesthood with the corrupt politicos, that Hosea directed his appeal and plea to the body politic, perhaps hoping for a major revolution to alter the disaster-laden course which, the nation was so bliss fully pursuing. Today does the concern exhibited by Hosea have pertinence for us? The blight side of the world'3 history is the story of hard- won victories in favor of the dignity of man. It always turns out that the elevation of man's condition comes about because someone cared enough to cham- Dion a ; articular cause. Flor-1 ence Nightingale, braced against' her family's opposition and her j friends' scorn, carried her knowl edge of medicine to the bloody Crimean battlefields. Today the nursing profession puts her name high in the list of honored women. Jane Addams, pitting her sympathies against the de pressing slums of Chicago, gain ed world acclaim by making Hull House an experiment in hu man understanding. , Wilberforce, inspired toy Wesley, lifted his voice year after year in the halls of Parliament to rid the British Empire of the scourge of slavery. Woodrow Wilson, pleading the case of -the oppressed nations of the world, burned himself out in behalf of the League of Nations. He lost America's support, but that ill-fated enterprise became the seed that gave rise to the creation of the United. Nations-! Deep in the spirit of these lives and others like them, we find trust in God and a dogged confidence in the worth of man. The champions of human values are persons who, like Hosea, see human frailty for what it is. But they do not stop there. They see God ready and eager to release forgiveness and inspire obedience. iiflB In another realm of world need we have our champions those who believe in the inviolability of the moral law. Fortunately in every generation there emerge men of keen : moral sensitivity. Most often they are called ideal ists as they seek to bolster moral principles in a slow-to-change so ciety controlled for. the most part by unprincipled men. : v If there is to be a new world we will have to work with God to bring it to life. Why? Be cause any world worth having will have to be the kind in which the bounty of God is acknowl edged and in which the demands God layg upon the human spirit will be respected. . ,. On still yet another score we find that we need the impact? if the- personality that has moral grasp. The' discoveries coming out of the laboratories of the nuclear physicists compel the ac celeration bf ethical control. We are reminded of the story of the old sculptor who was carving a figure that was to be placed in a niche in a wall. Its back would never been seen. - Yet the mas ter artisan . worked with great diligence on the entire statue. When asked , why ha spent so much time and talent on , the back of the figurine when it would never been seen, the old iman replied with great dignity: f"rtA ...ill ln1.!.A upon it" , , , There is something wrong with Continued os P? Fire ' .(V I r,V- fc -i ,a One of our "old teachetrtfted to gay, 'I can lead you to knowledge, but only God can Kjve yofu wisdom." . And how right he was. A string of diplomat ' and degrees does not make a man wise. Many of the wisest never had a formal education. For knowledge is the accumulation of facts. But ' Wisdom is the ability, to apply a few facts, per- , haps only one to a life-situation. I We know a distinguished scholar who has writ ten volumes on ecclesiastical architecture. And we know an elderly widow who told her grandchildren, "Churches ain't made to look at!" And the scholar earnest Christian' that h is humbly bows to the wisdom of the widow! For whether it be a cathedral or chapel, the Church cannot enrieh our lives until, reverently we enter its portals to worship and serve God. Th$ fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom.
