Clark's Salerno army, fighting forward through rugged rain-soaked terrain, won a good part of Matese, the iofty peak that dominates the upper Valturno valley, while British units advanced four miles in the Mcdittoranean coastal area to seize tin- town of Casanova, high on the - steep slopes of Massico ridge. | Reports from the front did not indicate exactly how much of the Matese mountains, which sprawls over ar. extensive area, had been occupied by the Americans, hut they said a good part of the whole ridge and some of its highest points were cleared of Germans. An allied officer said the gains were very encouraging. Although H was emphasized that the Nazis were defending their mountain strongholds savagely and had yet begun no general retreat to their new natural harrier, there were reports that they were laying extensj lye mine fields and booby traps in ! the intervening area?usually a good i sign that a withdrawal is contem-! j plated. ; SIX-INCH SERMON j REV. ROBERT H. HARPER. The sacredness of Human Life. Lesson for November 7: Exodus 20:13: Matthew 5:21-26, 38-45. Golden Text: I John 3:15. Beginning with the course upon Cain and expressed in the law against murder, the Bible throughout teaches the sacredness of human life by its commands against taking lif4. Murder is generally regarded as the worst of all transgressions, for it ends an earthly career, and makes it impossible for a murderer to make restitution. Jesus, ever concerned to eradicate sin at the source in the heart, warns against the hatred that may bring a man into danger of the judgment, and counsels a man to seek reconciliation with his brother. Further, he teaches men to overcome evil with good. This is not nonresistance, but resistance of wrong with good. To meet wrong with wrong is' to perpetuate and increase it, as the sad history of the world ! proves. So Jesus bids men to love i even their enemies. To love one's enemies is required 1 hat one may be the son of the Fa;ther in heaven. To be a good son, a man must be a good brother to all his fellows, who are sons of Gcd and his brothers. The great question is. How can men love instead of hate, how can they attain unto love, how can they obey all the teachings of Jesus? Only by faith in the Great Teacher? not first as the Great Teacher but as the Savior of men. And manifestly the supreme need of the sorrowing world is the spread of the gospel of love. A shortage of lespedeza seed for 1944 hay crops is indicated and Dr. E. R. Collins, extension agronomist at State College, suggests that growers save all the seed possible. \RY THURSDAY?BOONE, N. C. | Coal Miners May Ignore \ 'President Roosevelts Call ] For A Return to Work Washington, Nov. 2.?The United , Mine Workers leadership tonight ( withheld "hack to work" orders for r the nation's coal miners amid indi- . cations that the vast majority of the < turners would observe the union ( strike cc>de and ignore President Roosevelt's call for a return to work . tomorrow. Union President John I.. Lewis | and Secretary of Interior Ickos. U. , S. mine boss, attempted meanwhile . to come to some agreement on the terms of government operation. They ; will hold a third conference early tomorrow, and UMW district presi- i dents will reconvene at 11a. m. to ( hear the results, if any. , Cancellation of a scheduled policy t committee late today signalled at < least another day's wait for eonciu- , sive union action on the strike, un- ; der the UMW's technique, the continued suspension of work is tacitly { understood to be in effect unless . contrary instructions are given. ( Interviews in the mining regions . strongly supported the belief that t most of the miners would stand by , this traditional policy. j I Neither Lewis nor Ickes discuss- Ied their two meetings but Ickes issued an order forbidding dealers to . deliver fuel to any hoiseholder who c I has more than a 10 days' supply of * coal in his basement. I Under the order?issued as coal production came almost to a com- J plete standstill?no housekeper may get more than one ton of bituminous. but bigger deliveries are permitted to hospitals, hotels and other such big users, provided their bins are not filled beyond the 10-dav limit The UMW policy committe members. whose failure to end the strike yesterday brought a prompt order front the president to seize the struck mines and operate them under the American flag, gathered for today's meeting but postponed its formal opening while Lewis conferred with Ickes. As Lewis came out of the meeting the union leadership announced the meeting would be delayed at least until tomorrow. | Want Iaps WANTED AT ONCE?Middle aged white woman for general housework.
