He had been informed of Ihe facts in the matter. When asked at his news conference about fie situation in North Car olina, he is reported as saying that he did not wish to discuss specific areas. Simple justice' should have directed other action to exc'udc North Carolina from the blanket indictment. The pou’hy industry and agricultural leaders in North Carolina were justifiably upset by this pro cedure. No doubt Lie promoters of the big Feder.i government concept will produce the?: - usual volume of bills when Congress convenes. The urge wi!i be strong during this election year to further re duce the -dates to meaningless zeros on the map. Every con ceivable approach will be tried. Should these bills Drevail, the crariberry and poultry confusion created by Washington bureau cracy will look benign by com parison. Goodness never fails to re-; ceive its reward, tor goodness makes life a blessing. —Mary Baser Eddy. Weekly Devotional ’ Column i By JAMES MacACNZIB j "To him that overeometh evil will I give to eat of the hidden manna" (The Reve lation 2:17). ' The word translated “over come” in this verse is “nikao,” and it means to conquer. This! is our Lord’s message to the i Church: Not “compromise;” nc. j “got along with the world;” not “don’t raise a fuss;” not “try 1j be a Christian if it doesn’t in terfere with your business or, your social standing,” but CON-] QUER! Jesus Christ is not pleased ! with this weak-kneed, marked down for-quick-sale brand of religion so popular today, that' lives at peace with the world,, the flesh, and the devil.
