PAGE SIX-B Rep. Walter B. Jones Reports Last week the Congress recessed on Wednesday night, July S. for a long weekend in celebration of the July Fourth holiday. In the half week’s work, sev eral important bills were considered and passed. Among those were the National School Lunch Act, which increased the appro priations to provide more free lunches for those who are unable to pay. The bill which has attracted much attention nationally, including that of Drew Pearson, was the National Gas Pipeline Safety Act This bill will authorize the Program Slated For Children A special program for pre-school children will be presented at 10 A. M. on Wednesday, July 17, at Chapel Hill’s famed More head Planetarium. Titled “Stars for Be ginners,’’ the 50 - minute program will provide an elementary introduction to astronomy for the planet arium’s youngest visitors. Staff members skilled in communicating with young audiences will use the Zeiss sky projector to help ex plain basic ideas about the stars, moon and planets. “Stars for Beginners” will give the children a start ing point from which they can learn more about the wonders of the night sky “ Stars for Beginners” is especially recommended for groups involved in summer teaching programs such as Project Heaustart Addi tional showings may be at tended by advance reserva tion on July 24 to 31 or August 7 at the same hour. Standard admission rates of 60 cents per child and SI.OO per adult will apply; but one adult will be admitted free with each 10 children. “Stars for Beginners” will be immediately followed each day by the summer public presentation, “Ad ventures with the Astro nauts.” For information regarding other activities this summer, write to the Morehead Planetarium at Chapel Hill, N.

This act came as a result of several tragic explosions which have cost many lives and heavy property damage at all too frequent intervals. I voted for this bill on final pass age. Whatever else may be said about the 90th Con gress, it has shown a gen eral disposition to enact safeguards for the general public. I recall the Truth- In-Lending Bill, and the Meat and Poultry Inspec tion Act, as well as the Pipeline Safety Act. Another bill of general interest was the authoriza tion for the Federal Aid Highway Act of 1968. This basically approves an addi tional three thousand miles to complete work which was approved under the or iginal Highway Act of 1956. An interesting note in connection with this bill was a motion to delete the funds for highway beauti fication. It was felt that with the economic state of the nation at this time, that this could await better times. I voted for the amendment to delete this part of the bill, and the amendment passed by a vote of 211 to 145. The Federal Trade Com mission has again entered the controversy concerning cigarettes and has suggest ed that Congress pass leg islation which would pro hibit the advertising of cigarettes on television and radio. In response to this, I sent a telegram to Paul Rand Dixon, chairman of the Federal Trade Commis sion, which follows: “Re spectfully request recon sideration of your commis sion’s recommendation of Congressional action to ban cigarette advertising on television. I do not be lieve that medical science is unanimous in your con clusion.

SUNDAY SCHOOL LESSON THE TRAGEDY OF DISOBEDIENCE International Sunday School Lesson for July 14 Memory Selection: “Hope in the Lord: for with the Lord there is mercy, and with him is plenteous redemption.”—Psalm 130:7. Lesson Text: Lamentations 5; Psalms 130; 137. Our lesson for today lies in the Books of Lam entations and Psalms. Therein is contained both joy and sorrow, happiness and pain. They re flect (in effect) the very fabric of life as we ex perience it today. Our lives contain, inevitably heights and depths, and we have long ago learned that to experience one, we must be willing to endure the other. The one throws the other into sharp relief, and how we meet both our triumphs and our tragedies, shapes our destiny and our charac ter as human beings. In moments of happiness we must be appreciative of our many blessings, and thankful for them. When trouble and sad ness touch our lives, if we will but surrender ourselves to the Will of God we can learn many of the Christian virtues; for, as steel is fired in a crucible, so that crucible of trouble can mold us in patience, courage, endurance, and kindli ness and understanding of our fellow men. Jesus Christ emulated us in form; we should strive to emulate Him in sipirt. The grief exhibited by the Jewish nation when disasters befell it, we will note, contained more than just wailing. It inevitably contained both confessions of sin and affirmation of faith in God. Thus is demonstrated the chastening and purifying place of suffering in the lives of in dividuals, and (inevitably) in the life of a na tion, for that nations is—primarily—made up of individuals, and (like a chain) only as strong as the weakest link. When life is going wrong for us. we—as did Israel—tend to lean more heavily on God for strength and courage than we do when things are going right. But, while this would seem to be a transient sort of faith, upon closer examina tion we might find it is, perhaps, the most sin cere affirmation that we can make. For our faith is instinctive—we turn to One greater than we are. There are few among us who have not experi enced dead-end situations that leave no alterna tive except the abandonment of the spirit to complete despair—or a renewed trust in God. Israel—even in the aftermath results of out right disobedience to His commandments—gained new insights into His nature ,and committed her self anew to His way. Spiritual blessings, through suffering, were her reward. She found that strength and tolerance are but two of the many ■blessing*., attained through pain and sorrow. This is just as true in our day and time as it was at the time the accounts of the Exodus were written. If we are in doubt on this point, we have only to cast our minds back to the dark days of assassination that we have recently pass- Continued on Page 7 BELK - TYLER’S EDENTON’S SHOPPING CENTER W. E.
