MtiBle Copy BIBLE THOUGHT V "That I miglvl know Him, and the power of His resurrection, and the fellowship of His sufferings." a i? ? "Until buownity comes to believe in the principles of Christ and to build upon them no possible economic programs or social reforms or politico] arrangements of international conventions, no amount of good will or peaceful desirie or progress of the arts and sciences ? ever can build a civilization which will satisfy the insistent needs of humanity," says the Hon. Francis B. Sayr#, former High Commis sioner to tbe Philippines. "First things must come first. In a world 'so various, so beautiful, so new,' but so torn by confusion and strug gle, so darkened by suffering, the primal task of those who have caught the vision of Christ's message to men must be to impart to others this burning light." Russian Engineer Visits Coweeta Forest RApVJOR Mark (j. Lvovich, of the Russian En * * gineering mission which has just completed a visit to the United States and is now returning to Russia, has written to Marvin Hoover, director of the Coweeta Experimental Forest in this county, regarding his visit, on March 31, to this hydrologic research center. In the party besides Major Lvovich of' the U.S.S.R. were Major Francis N. Arnoldy, in terpreter, Major Alexander Brown, Liason Officer of the U.S. Army Air Forces, and Merrill Bernard of the U.S. Weather Bureau. We are indebted to Mr. Hoover for the follow ing comments of Major Lvovich on the work being done in the Coweeta Forest. "Major Lvovich, who is the outstanding hydro logist in the Soviet Republic, was very high in his praise of the quality of the scientific research being conducted in Macon County on the Experimental Forest. He stated that this was unquestionably the most important research of its kind that he had ever seen either in the United States or elsewhere. He stated that this type of scientific work was fa^ more advanced in the United States than in any European country. He requested and obtained J)lUe prints of a number of designs for making research installations as are used on the Coweeta Forest. He also requested publications and results of the experiments on fundamental land use hydrology now in progress. "Major Lvovich stated that he believed that the Southern Nantahala Region was ideal for working out many of the basic and perplexing hydrologic problems that have been confronting engineers in the past. This, he stated, was based on the relative ly high rainfall well distributed throughout the year, and on the deep soils and nature of the un derlying country rock, together with the character istic rugged topography, all of which contributed to making it possible to measure the components of the water cycle from small independent drainage areas. "The Coweeta Forest is located almost in the center of the high rainfall belt in the Eastern Unit ed States, in which lie the headwaters of numerous streams flowing in all directions, which are the source of hydroelectric power developments. Major Lvovich had previously visited a number of hydro electric power plants in the Tennessee Valley and elsewhere, and stated his pleasure at having the opportunity to see the headwater area of the streams on which these plants were located." Franklin On National Tourist Itinerary pOR the first time, to our knowledge, Franklin has been included in the itinerary of a company managing tours over every scenic section of the United States. The Vanderbilt Better Tours oper ating out of Chicago has this season organized a tour to the Smoky Mountains including the Nanta hala Gorge and passing through Franklin for an overnight stop. This means that, without the expense of adver tising, Franklin is listed on a beautiful folder which is distributed all over the United States by a com pany which caters to the best class of travel. Thus a new source of tourist trade has been opened up ior Franklin. THE POCKETBOOK of KNOWLEDGE *. ~V onrnucmooKnoM irst tham is am or xaeiD was I ?? atPfKcumcHTaxY 3 3 American firms nok/ raoouc>M?

The strength historically of the United States as the oldest continuons democracy is that it has never taken two steps back ward for one forward in the line of progress. Yet, tlie House of Representa tives has just done a very re actionary thing. It has voted to de stroy the Farm Security Adminis-'i tration, striking down one of the few agencies which protect the small American farmer and help him to improve his lot. . The House took this action with out an apparent qualm. During the six days t<hat the farm appropria tion bill, whioh usually includes funds for the FSA, was on the floor, the membership had no op portunity to debate the merits and the demerits of the farm agency. The whole measure finally was sent to the Senate on a voice vote in which onlv three-fourths of the House participated. In other words, a handful of congressmen on the Appropriations Committe legislated in toto for t4ie House and for the American people. The FSA admittedly has its weak points. It 'will confess as much ? a magnanimous concession in these days of bureaucratic arroganey. But a great many people were willing to overlook these transgressions in their admiration for the gener ally wholesome work 'the FSA is doing among the little farmers and the impulse it has given to wartime food production. Continuation of the FSA was urged by nearly every newspaper of any size in North Carolina. The agency had the support of leading rjeginal newspapers and farm journals such as The Atlanta Journal and the Progressive Far mer. Its preservation was urged by Harry B. Coktwell, master of the North Carolina Grange. It had the support of farm organizations, ag ricultural (economists, church and consumer groups, labor unions and business men in the South an 4 Mid-West The House has not heeded these sincere and personally disinterest ed friends of FSA and the small farmer. It insisted upon setting back progress for the little man who toils on the land. It is to be hoped tthat the Senate will be more amenably to reason and logic and less patient with tbe reactionary viewpoint which has thus far pre vailed. Fortuately, there is some hope, since the Senate last year voted a $25,000,000 increase in the House. Tile record sustains this sensible expenditure. It would sus stain it again. CITY GARAGE EXTENDING DRIVEWAY Roy Mashburn and L. E. Eng lish have bought th* lot adjoining their property on which the City (iarage is located for the purpose of widening their driveway. This has necessitated moving the cham ber of commerce boo til a few feet, onto the adjacent lot. Mrs. Kansas Stewart, the owner is givinc the use of the property. The shrubbery is also being moved.
