broccoli seed, make a plant bed,
and give every member of her

Washington, D. C., June 25—’
The long fight to protect state’s
rights against Federal encroach
ment has reached a crucial stage
in Congress.
A bill by Rep. Smith (D-Va.)
directed at federal preemption of
state functions is awaiting action
by the House. It has been ap
proved by the House Judiciary
Committee and cleared for floor
consideration by the Rules Com-

; Anna’s history is very bleak. In
January 1951, she was in a train-far
wreck and sustained a severely fractured
right leg and complications. When
Anna was released from Hermann Hos
■> P'tal, Houston, Texas, she was on
• J crutches.
>j 1 Sgt. Bill W , the friend with
I whom Anna was riding when the train
), auto accident occurred, fell in love with
r | her and they were married. However,
; on Septttnber 22, 1952, she was stricken
~ with potto and rushed to Jefferson
i Davis Hospital, Houston’s Polio Cen
, ter. The baby, little Benjamin Rex,
[ was born January 7, 1953. Two weeks
, later, Anna left the hospital—still on
, crutches.
,' Just one year later, spondylitis, a
I I disease similar to polio, entered Anna’s
I life. This left her confined to a wheel
I chair.
[ April 25.1955, they arrived in Wich
ita Falls, Texas, where Bill was sta
| ( tioned at Sheppard Air Force Base. The
following Sunday, Bill and Anna and
another young couple were watching a
religious television program in their
home. The program was concerning
God's love and His power. He was
presented as a good God who is able
to heal. At the close of the program
there was prayer for those viewing the
program. ,
Bill shot a quick glance at his wife i
sitting across the room from him. He i
j and the other couple were praying
mittee. -
If the House passes the bill,
quick action by the Seriate Ju
diciary Committee and by the
Senate will be urged. Already
pending in the SenateTs a smi-l
lar bi'l sponsored by Senator Mc-
Clellan (D-Ark.) along with ten
other Democrats and four Repub
licans.
i Supporters of the legislation are
firmly convinced that the states
should not be deprived of sov-
I ereign power unless there is some
I dear and compelling reason. •
They believe that the Smith bill
would accomplish this purpose
and should be enacted,
i Responsible for the legislative
proposal is a series of Supreme
Court decisions nullifying many
state laws by the doctiine of fed
eral preemption. Under this dew
trine, a state law is invalid if
Congress has passed legislation in
th» came f'elrt.
For example, it was held by
' the Supreme Court that, merbly
because Congress has passed a
law dealing with communist ac
tivity, the states were powerless
to deal with this problem.
Such decisions brought about
widespread criticism that the
court was indulging in jud ; cial
legislation by finding in statutes
a legislative intent (not express
ed by Congress) to occupy whole
fields to the exclus'on of state
quietly. He said, "At that precise mo
ment -a itrahfce feeling entered Anna’s
frail body and she felt a general tin
gling throughout her body. Her legs felt
strange and alive. An overwhelming
compulsion toldher to GET UP AND
WALK.”
"Honey,” she said, "help me get up.”
She grasped his hands and pulled Her
self up from the divan with her own
power.
Bill watched apprehensively. She
lurched forward with staggering, un
steady steps. In panic, Bill grabbed for
Anna’s hand and attempted to steady
her. "Turn me. loose!" she exclaimed.
"I'm going to walk. God has hold of
me.”
Anna W did walk. Her unsteady
steps grew firm. She tossed back her
head and cried exultantly, "The Lord
has healed me!"
She picked up little Benny, raised
him high over hrr head and laughed
with the thrill of full motherhood. This
was her child and, although he was 28
month old, this was the first time she
had ever had strength to lift him.
What an excited group of people!
Anna was crying and laughing. Harold
and Bill were giving happy shouts of
praise for the miracle of deliverance.
Anna was healed! She is walking
today.
This is the story of the Wichita Falls
miracle that has been published in
every major newspaper in the United
States and broadcast over several radio
networks. It happened on Sunday, May
1,1955, at 1:53 p.m.

| and local governments.
The purpose of the Smith bill
is to prevent the courts from pre
suming a legislative intent not'
expressly stated.
I Here is the reasoning behind!
the legislation, as developed by I
its supporters on the House Ju-i
diciary Committee:
I Under the Constitution, a fed
eral act is supreme in any field
involving exclusive federal pow
er —such as foreign relations, war,
naturalization, and coinage.
