Text: "Man’s greatest freedom
is to discipline himself.’’
—Bernard Baruch.
Bruce Catton tells of the time
General Robert E. Lee attended
the christening of a friend’s
child.
‘Tell me,” the mother asked,
“some words that will guide
my boy to manhood”.
' Lee’s answer summed up his
creed that had carried him
through struggle and suffering.
‘Teach him,” he said simply, “to
deny himself.”
, The world’s greatest Teacher,
Wold his followers to deny them
selves, if they would have eter
?al peace. They must learn to
iscip 1 i n e themselves. Hie
Teacher could not do it for
them. There was no magic ior

Washington—A major question
confronting Conservatives is this:
What effect will the decisions of
•the Democratic National Conven
tion have on the fate of legis
lation to be considered when
Congress resumes its session?
It is well known that Senator
ijfennedy, the Democratic nonji-
for President, is a vigorous
supporter—and in important in
stances author —of major indus
try-opposed legislation awaiting
congressional action.
Presumably, he will use his
influence as leader of his party
in behalf of this legislative pro
gram to legalize situs-picketing
and secondary boycotts at con
struction sites, to increase the
minimum wage and broaden cov
erage of the Wage-Hour Act, to
establish a medical aid program
for. the aged, and to provide
federal subsidies for education.
It is also a matter of record
that the Democratic platform
adopted at the national conven
tion strongly endorses most of
these measures—along with a,
variety of other proposals forj
federal spending in areas tra
ditionally reserved to the states!
and localities.
Many Southern Democrats are
Rallied with Conservative Repub

cracy. j '>>hr**a
These members of Congress
are more apprehensive than us
ual because the major pending
measures will be considered just
after the national political con
ventions and just before the
Presidential and Congressional
elections on November 8.
Virtually everyone agrees 'that,
in such a setting, it would be
expecting the impossible for Sen
ators and Representatives to ig-l
nore political considerations com
pletely and cast their votes pure
ly in the national interest.
The Conservatives point outj
that the New Deal element in
Congress might shove through a
major portion of its legislative

mula that would transform them
easily. The rich could not buy
peace. They must control them
selves by self-denial.
Too many of us think that'
discipline can be imposed from
the outside. Many good souls
would pass laws to force others
into narrow paths where they
could .not err. Parents';try it.
Courts of law try it. Govern
ments; try it. It isn’t successful.
Discipline that, is effective. is,
self-imposed. /It; comes from
within. ;/•.

courage every adult to deny
himself. When you have done

program—and destroy any chan
ces for a balanced budget dur
ing the present fiscal year,
There are some proposals in
the Democratic platform strong
ly approved by the Southern
Democratic-Republican conserva
tive coalition. These proposals
include the assertion that: “We
9hall end the gross waste in fed
eral expenditures which need
lessly raises the budgets of many
Government agencies.”
Another is the emphasis upon
the desirability of expanding the
American economy. There is a
sharp clash of opinion, however,
over how this should be brought
about: Whether by federal
spending and controls or by
stimulating a proper climate for
individual and private enter
prise.
Principal attention is expected
to be given by Congress when
it reconvenes (the Senate on
August- 8 and the’House on Au
gust 15) to the hotly-disputed
measures that were under con
sideration before the recess be
gan on July 3.
But, with the November elec
tions imminent and nearly ev
eryone’s attention centered on
prospective votes, serious con
sideration could be given to
some of the other programs out
lined in the Democratic plat
form.
Tnese include federal subsi
dies to aid cities perform such
local activities as clearing, their
slums, disposing of their sew
-1 age, educating their children,
transporting suburban commuters
to and from their jobs, and com
batting juvenile delinquency.
Some of the other proposals
would provide federal subsidies j
for aiding depressed areas and
for combatting stream pollution.!
Another would establish a Fair,

ees.
The platform also contended
the Democratic program could.

I these words: j
“If, therefore, the unfolding de
. mands of the new decade at
i home or abroad should impose
clear national responsibilities
that cannot be fulfilled without
higher taxes, we will not allow
political disadvantage to deter us
from doing what is required.”
In the meantime, the platform
contemplated obtaining greater
revenue by collecting billions of
dollars “which are owed to the
Federal Government but not now
collected”, by closing “tax loop
holes”, and by expanding the
economy to provide a larger tax
base. .. i •:

Paul said, ‘I was free born’. All

Sunday School Lesson
GOD LOVES HIS ERRING
CHILDREN
International Sunday School
Lesson for August 7, 1960.
Memory Selection: “See what
love the Father has given us,
that we should be called chil
dren of God.” (I John 3:1)
Lesson Text: Hosea 11.
The purpose of our study to
day is to seek to understand
the nature of God’s love and
what it requires of us as we
face the issues of life.
In pursuing our Scriptural
lesson for today, we find that
Hosea shows how God deals
with persons who violate his
laws. In a stern world the pro
phet breaks through with as
tonishing news. He says that
the nature of God is such that
although he enforces his law, he
still yearns over his children
and continues to love them. This
thought is beautifully executed
in the verses we are now study
ing.
God has established laws, and
without them we could not sur
vive. If the law of gravity held
one minute and failed another,
our lives would be in danger.

If the law supporting a ship on
the water were in force one day
and not another, commerce
would cease. Laws make exist
ence possible. This fact is so
much- a part of our world that
people who refuse to obey are
heavily penalized.
The same is true of moral
laws. Our Violation of them is
evil, and the penalty for- that
violation is death. When we
obey laws, they become our ser
vants and friends. By using the
law of combustion we bring
comforting heat into our homes.
If we obey the laws of health,
our bodies are strong. The
same holds true of spiritual laws.
Indeed, history is filled with ex
amples of how people have
Obeyed moral laws and thus
gained joy and a sense of peace
and accomplishment. On the
other hand, the press is filled
each day with the horror and
tragedy that has come to people
j who think that moral laws are
nonsense.
An old Scottish tale tells the
story of a wayward girl Who
brought shame to her widowed
father. Although rigid in his
moral code, the stiff old Scots
man could not forget her.
Therefore, every night he put
