No Subscription Received Under 8 Month* !\ot In Right Direction Diplomacy and armament power having ' failed to bring peace to a war weary world, /prominent leaders declare we’ll have to turn to Christianity for the solution. There’s no doubt but what Christianity • can meet and solve the problem, but the -facts there are not very encouraging. It would seem that we are going in the wrong . direction on that front, also. Dr. Paul Calvin Payne told a convention of the International Council of Religious Ed it ucation meeting in Toronto a short time ago. 'Payne, speaking about America, said there were seventeen million children and young people who were receiving no religious training of any kind in 1927.'That miserable showing, it was pointed out. was bad enough, ;«i)ut now, twenty-live years later, there are /twenty-seven million children and young people receiving no religious training. It would appear we are going in the wrong direction, that unless we do better ourselves, we can't expect Christianity alone to do | rnifeh for us. ! lion ibonl Tho Job? When the politicians and fixers got through with it they had discussed just about eygry angle except the job itself We were told who were the leading can didates for the position on the State Supreme Court bench, but instead of talking about their fitness, the political angle was injected headlong into the picture. The anti-Scott gang hurriedly jumped in to the ring apparently with the designed aim of using the high office to split the present administration support. In short, the old con servative gang, ignoring the generally ac cepted fact that Kerr Scott is stronger today than he was when he threw the old guard for a loss in 1948, are trying to barge in and steal the leadership position. And they'd do it for a political advantage even though the office suffered as a result of such action. Think of These Things 1. When a church member rests, he rusts. 2. The Lord’s big job is to get His church into the world without getting the world into the church. 3. The biggest liar in the world is the Christian who gives excuses for not doing his duty. 4. Rip Van Winkle is the only man who .ever became famous while he was asleep. . 5. The devil is an artist. He paints sin in very attractive colors. 6. Heaven is a prepared place for a pre pared people. 7. Do what you should and you will have no time to do what you should not The Evangel. Respecting Property • With a few exceptions where the stock is 'provided not even shelter, Martin 'County farmers are, for the most part, respecting their property. High machinery prices have been called for shelters and farmers, realizing that the weather can aggravate wear and tear occa sioned by actual use, have moved to house their equipment. The farmer, now that he has finished with most of his machinery for the present, can spend a day or a week in no better way than Cleaning up and oiling his machines and stor ing them for winter. “Ifhy Not?" l» Right , “Human beings couldn’t survive a visit to the moon because there is no air or water there," says an astronomer.

Prime Minister Nehru of India, who per haps is better able to speak for the people of Asia than any world leader, has expressed some ideas which the United States can hardly ignore. Asked recently by the editors of United States News and World Report what the Western powers can do to help non Communist countries in Asia to combat com munism, Mr. Nehru advised the West first of all to try to reach a better understanding through the mind and heart of Asia. “Tagore, our great poet, expressed this very vividly when he said: ‘You do not open a lock with a hammer, you open it with a key, devised for the lock',” the Indian Premier declared. Decrying the Western habit of thinking primarily in terms of military and econom ic power, the Prime Minister continued: “Certainly we cannot open the locks of men’s hearts with hammers, bayonnets and bombs. The strongest urge of which the positive side is nationalism. Remnants of colonialism must, therefore, be completely ended and the national movement receive support.” Mr. Nehru believes that communism has spread in Asia because it has linked itself with national movements fighting for in dependence from foreign domination. Com munism will flourish, the Indian leader be lieves, only as the anticolonial impulse is ignored by the West. Asked what the principal factors neeces sary to a better understanding between Asia tic people and the people of the United States, Mr. Nehru observed: “To come close to each other there must first be trust of each other's motives. The United States has the opportunity to assist the nations of Asia to develop their resources and raise their living standards. Such assistance would be welcomed if made in the right spirit.” The Indian Prime Minister is doubtlessly speaking for Asia’s awakening masses. He is telling us that the struggle in Asia is bas ically ideological. The great problems are human, not military. The key that will un lock the heart of Asia is friendship, mutual trust, assistance in developing human and natural resources. The sooner the Western powers realize the full significance of this key and use it to its utmost the sooner will the tide of military and ideological battle in Asia turn in favor of democracy. !\o Immunity The mosquito and common house fly are developing immunity from various insecti cides, the scientists say. But humans are not, despite extensive use, developing immunity from tobacco nicotine. Some scientists claim lung cancer is on the increase among ciga rette smokers. And now comes a report from West Vir ginia, teling about a three-year-old smoking three or four cigars daily, indicating that younger generations are coming by the smoking habit honestly. The little tot pick ed up the habit shortly after he learned to walk and as soon as he could reach ash trays and get discarded cigar butts. The Mvt.arruu Anti-Red Measure Tlit‘ intentions of those who sponsored the (McCarran) Communist control bill which has just been passed over President Tru man's veto, were patriotic, but there are seri ous doubts whether this legislation will be helpful in throttling the Reds. When it is noted that the department of Justice, the Department of Defense, the Cen tral Intelligence Agency and the State De partment all united in declaring the bill would "seriously damage the security and in telligence opeartions now in progress,” the average citizen can hardly fall to be impress ed. The act tries to do so much that it may end by causing not only confusion, but ser ious damage to the fundamental liberties which we are fighting to preserve. Hot Rare After reading about crime and its; strangle hold in various high places and review what is being done to evade taxes, one can’t help but visualize criminals and cheaters in a hot race with the Communists for the downfall of our country. Few things have been more disheartening than the recent news from the big-time gam bling and crime fronts. It is hard to say which is the most dangerous, the fellow who would overthrow his government or the trusted official who would undermine it by forming a partnership with criminals. Knconrnfiinn Truman says there is no disagreement be tween him and MacArthur on Formosa. It is encouraging to learn that at least two people agree on something, even if that rare accomplishment leaves the commentators and columnists hanging precariously way out on that proverbial limb. To Preach Friday Ni|rht Rev. P. E. Cayton, pastor of Edenton, will preach the first sermon in the newly completed Christian Chapel Church at Cross Roads Friday night of this week.
