Thursday, December 15, 1949 Complete Security Leads To Downfall America in the short space of two cen turies has risen to eminence as the leader of the world. This leadership has been ' gained through the strength of its citizens. The world today looks to America for leadership. Other peoples would like to become great. And while the world looks to Amer ica for leadership a paternalistic govern ment is crying for the opportunity to fol low Russia's plan of communism and Eng land's national socialism. The individual initiative of American people built this country into the world's best place in which to live. Now those who clamor for a welfare state would tear down this great force of the indi vidual with a watered down, weak imi tation of socialism, which would have every individual in the nation holding out a hand to Washington instead of work ing to better their own ways of living. The federal budget is a point in ques tion. There is a deficit this year of about five billion dollars. The government says increase taxes, never suggesting that bil lions of waste be eliminated. Why? Increased taxes mean more govern mental power over individuals. When you surrender your earnings in -higher and higher taxes your liberty is going the same way of your earnings. Control the income of the people and you control the people. Nothing is more simple. When you increase the activities of the welfare state you are tearing down the character of both classes?those who pay the taxes and those who receive the ben efits. The overburdened taxpayer loses his sense of responsibility for his neighbor because he rightfully figures he pays for performing his duty through taxes to car ry out paternalistic practices. The recipient loses his initiative and drive to accomplish because he knows that Uncle Sam will supply his needs. If the present trend increases Russia will not need armies and bombs to destroy America because America will have de stroyed herself. A Grave Problem Can Be Solved Tuberculosis is one of the most import ant health problems facing the American people today. It is important because in the produc tive young age group from 15 to 34 it costs more lives than any other disease. It is important because it is a communi cable disease which is killing nearly 1, 000 Americans a week, 125 a day?at the rate of one person every 11 minutes. It is impotrant because 500,000 people in this country are estimated to have tu berculosis, one-half of them unknown to health authorities. Tuberculosis is an important public health problem because it can be pre vented. When we know that a disease as costly in lives and happiness can be prevented; it is only common sense for us to spare no effort to root it out of our communities. Nationwide efforts to bring tuberculos is under complete control in this country were started 45 years ago when the Na tional Tuberculosis Association was founded and launched its campaign a gainst the disease. Today, the Wilkes Tuberculosis Asso ciation is one of 3,000 associations affil iated with the National Association which are conducting sound programs of tuber culosis control in communities through out the country. These associations, which work in close cooperation with official health "agencies, receive their sole sup port from the annual sale.of Christmas Seals. - . With Christmas Seal funds, the tuber culosis associations are seeking to find the estimated 250,000 unknown cases of tuberculosis so that these people can *be placed under treatment and the danger of their spreading their disease eliminat ed; they are seeing that people are cor rectly informed about tuberculosis so that individuals can protect themselves and their families against the disease; they are aiding tuberculous patients readjust to their new way of life and prepare to resume useful living in this community when their disease is arrested, and they are helping support medical research which is constantly searching for new weapons to use against tuberculosis. In Wilkes a photofluorographic unit is needed, and the committee has plans for continued aid and improvements to the Wilkes Tuberculosis hospital. We are helping support all these pro jects when we buy Christmas Seals. We are helping in the solution of a grave health problem. ? -THE EVERYDAY COUNSELOR By Rev. Herbert Spa ugh, D. D. TEN COMMANDMENTS FOR CHRISTMAS L Thou Shalt Not Leave Christ Out of Christmas, making it "Xmas," for this is the sign that thou art lazy minded, and spiritually listless. To most minds "X" stands not for Christ, but for the alge braic unknown. II. Thou Shalt Not Value Thy Gifts By Their Cost, for verily many shall signify love that is more blessed and beautiful than silver and gold. ID. Thou Sh^lt Give Thyself With Thy Gifts. Thy love, thy personality and thy service shall increase the value of thy gift an hundred fold and he that re ceiveth it shall treasure it forever. IV. Thou Shalt Not Let Santa Clause Take the Place of Christ. In many homes, Santa Claus supersedes the Christ Child and Christmas becomes a fairy tale rather than a sublime reality in the spiritual realm. V. Thou Shalt Not Burden Thy Serv ant. The shop girl, and mail carrier and the merchant should have thy considera tion. IV. Thou Shalt Not Let Santa Claus Church. Its Christmas services are plann ed to help spiritualize the Christmas sea son for thee, thy child and thy household. The church represents Christ, the only true defense against the rising evil of Communism. VII. Thou Shalt Not Neglect the Needy. Let thy bountiful blessings be shared with the many who will go hungry and shiver with cold unless thou art generous in their time of want. VIII. Thou Shalt Be As A Little Child. Christmas is the day of the Christ Child. Not until thbu hast become in spirit eveir as a little child art thou ready to enter into the Kingdom of Heaven. IX. Thou Shalt Prepare Thy Soul For Christmas. For verily most of us spend much time and money getting gifts ready, but few seconds in preparing our souls. X. Thou Shalt Give Thy Heart to Christ. Let thy Christmas list have Christ at the top and thy heart as the gift. For in so doing thou art as the Wise Men of old, and verily thou shalt find thyself born again on Christmas Day. Each year at Christmas time we reprint these Ten Commandments for Christmas by an unknown writer. We need them this year as never before.
