Noble souls are made through the strug gles they encounter and over come. Out of the fires and strug gles of life we have the beau ties of the spirit emerging. Let resistance generate deter mination and power for the causes of God. Some eneouQter stubborn resitsance and they turn to bitterness. Then' others encounter resistance and they turn it into a ci^eative stepping stone to higher and n^r things. Yes, thi* the f^ative to the ri|ais(anM that '‘wi fniy' enAunttir' ilh tidhle ef forts. Use that resistance to gen- frate'new power and determina tion for a good cause. For ^ome ii)''ople resistance, *jid opptwitioh becomes a kind of guarantee W their success. Just tell some peo- 'fjle' they cannot do a certain liiing and they will move oh with jL grlnfU,. nnbeatable d^emina- fion to do the semihiniy ifntofr sible. this is the creative ie- *6nat to *lubborn resistance. There i* great satisfaction in the creative organization |>f spiritual resources to do a tough job for God and goodness. Some go about looking for easy spots and they never do any great job. But the tougher the 'job you do the greater the honor of achievement. Too many of us are looking for the safety qf ready-made security. We lack the daring adventure that is willing . to tackle tough jobs for God. And what is the result? We find our selves playing around in the shallows pear the shore. Thus we find Jesus calling on His dis- tanh«co(n)) daring ' and launch ot^l into the deep. Real ■ siiirltual |ro\fth comes whfen we tackle apd do tough jobs for God. ' All noble causes have run intoj resistance. Therefore, let us nf)# become weary nor discouraged'lw • the face of resistance.

' G^ENSBORO DAILY NEWS A PRESS AGENT FOR , THE FARMER ' The Bpard of Trade of Chicago in the heartland of America, has become the world’s largest com-, modity -exchange. Wheat; soy-' I beans, corn, oats, jye, and other farm products are sold and bought, so that farmers around the world depend upon its free market price quotations to guide them in their decisions. In view of the three decades of national farm programs, pro grams that handicap the free mark*ting system, it would be entirely na'ueal for the Board of Trade to fake an extremely criti cal attitude toward all such pro grams. Wfi find, however, a more realistjic view in the position of the Board as expressed by its president, Robert C. IiiebeBow.

Having established ^is per spective, Mr. Liebenow points out the grave defects in existing farm, progrsms. He suggests ehartgfes, emphasizing that direct ' federal payment to farmers shou'.d be used where possible in stead of plans that build surplus es and peg prices. On the whole, he has taken the position of a farm statesman, and we applaud his initiative and enterprise to- ward getting somewhere with th* farm problem.

Now, the Civil ^ight* move ment in this coiihtiy. is deiiigned to guarantee the Constitutional rights of all people—biclttding colored people. You may be sute that the peoples of Asia and Africa know what is happeniig to their brethren in this country. The Russian propaganda machipe sees to that.
