Before Douglas MacArthur faded far away, tens of thousands flocked to Washing ton. and they turned out to be little more than worshippers of pomp and ceremony. It is about lime the people of this coun try stopper! going off the deep end for pomp and ceremony and recognize the true values in life. When truth is spoken in Washing- ' ton, the people ought to rush to Washington \ and applaud and uphold those who would j dare speak out for truth and righteousness. | When one dares speak up in Washington in 1 defense of the needy and downtrodden, the people should arm themselevs with jaw bones of a certain animal and sally forth with grim determination to wipe out those who would attack and misbrand the one who dares take a stand for humanity. When men of good omen and men of good will speak out they are too often branded as comrades in ism, and the people remain silent while their champions are haiassed and murdered. But thousands will flock to see MacArthur and hi:-, six aides waddle down the street. Brazen Prnponal Senator (President) Robert Alphonso Taft , is credited with championing the brazen proposal to wipe out the Social Security System. The White House snooper and cun „ ning old fox of the U. S. Senate would give ; away the SI8 billion put there by wage earn ers and employers, and then see the plan wither away. Mr. Taft is alleged to have branded the system as being socialistic, declaring that the government was operating in a field where it had no business. It would be fine if everyone could place aside savings for the proverbial rainy day and old age Many are doing just that, and . the security system does not interfere But that individual plan had its drawbacks, if one remembers correctly. Before 1920 and even again before 1929, little children, youths and adults were preached into saving their pennies and cash for the rainy day and old age The figures are not immediately available, but millions y who did just that stood helplessly bv as \heir financial empires tumbled in those two great crashes It was after the 1920 crash that an humble old man right here in £ Martin County sat on a rotten porch of a 2 home allotted him by law as a homestead. « and watched the setting sun of his life disap j» pear over the western horizon Maybe he JJ did or he didn’t think about his hard-earned 5 savings that were gobbled up in a '‘busted’’ * *—*— _ « Yes, the savings are guaranteed now, up to a point. But how long will it be before Mr. Taft and the big boys start yelling about guaranteed bank deposits being the work of the socialists or the devil? The die is firmly cast now, and Taft and Company apparently won’t be satisfied until every legislative act designed and passed in the name of needy humanity is wiped off the books and trampled into the dust. Ambtutador With Pouer Mrs. Luce, U. S. Ambassador to Italy, is no little figure in international politics. She just spoke up and told the Italians if they did not vote for so and so American aid would be denied Italy. Maybe, the lady is right. But what would happen tf an I**(w dirj^jgyji. were to come to this country and tell the American peo ple to vote for so’and so, or else? Cite* One Thing fFrong W ilh The Country I The editor of the Lincoln (Nebraska) Star. , afu-r hearing Senator Wayne Morse f Ore | gon. set out to point out or.- trouble with ' | this country. He was disturbed because | Senator Morse was denied his rightful places on certain committees. The Star said: “ . . . The action taken by a Republican ; rra ,-ritv. an action. :t must be admitted sor • row fully, joined in by some Democrats is ' so revealing. A man's capacity to serve his ! country and his people with distinction and ability is of no consequence. A man's deter- | mnation to follow' the course which he him- > self believes vital to the welfare of the in- • terests of his countrymen must be written j off or brushed aside in order that the Grand j i Old Party is in the position to punish Sena | tor Morse. | “That is one thing that is wrong with this ; | country, and terribly wrong. We place a ! premium on partisanship, whether it is in | spired and dedicated to the welfare of America’s masses or blundering, blind, and stupid. Partisanship is the thing “Senator Morse was in Nebraska last I week-end. the guest speaker at a memorial : dinner given in memory of the late George j W. Norris. Those who heard Senator Morse. 1 and it was a most unusual audience that packed the dining room where the dinner , was held, came away with the impression j ! that here is a man upon whom the American i people may rely. In this great fight over the | conservation of natural resources, the peo ple will discover that they owe an eternal i debt of gratitude to Senator Morse- He will | be on guard And because he will be on ! guard it will be more difficult for certain | powerful groups with selfish aims to serve i to put over their games The address which ! Senator Morse gave at this memorial dinner | was one of the most effective, powerful, poll- ' . tical discussions to which Nebraskans have . been privileged to listen for a good many j years. "The bovs now in the saddle mav denv ! i J * i him committee assignments h^ desires, but in so doing they will not clip his wings. They may undertake every measure of discipline j but they will not make a coward out of him I Senator Wayne Morse will follow his consci ence. He will do what he thinks is ui the public interest and not even the possibility : that his rebellion may bring him oppoiyti^n should he seek reelection will reduce him to the status of a timid soul, i “The American people will find at the 1 close of this struggle that what they need is more representatives of the courage, the ' high sense of integrity, the conscience of 1 Senator Wayne Morse. They need more | men of this caliber, not fewer of them, in the dominant role of shaping America’s future " I ___ Hard Wonoy Directed by the national administration and supported by the action of so many peo ple, “hard monev" is on the march again. Interest rates have been hiked and the rules on borrowing have been tightened. I Restrictions on installment buying have been lifted, and the average family saving has dwindled rapidly from S470 to $230, or almost fifty percent. The income of some groups is already out of proportion with the prospect that the farm population wiH take another cut in its income while costs of production con tinue upward 60 Second Sermons By Fred Dodge TEXT: “If thou canst. believe. All things are possible to him that believeth.”—Mark 9 23. John Wesley tells of a young convert who had been sent to North England to preach. After a year, he returned to Wesley, search ing for the reason that his preaching did not make more converts. Wesley asked him, every meeting, do you?" “Oh, no,” said the young preacher, “not at everv meeting." "Then,’’ said John Wesley, “that’s the rea son you are not having more of them." • • * The majority of our important inventions came about because someone believed. That belief carried them through the many dis couragements that had to be passed before they attained success. Men, struggling to ward world peace, must believe deep in their hearts, that they can reach it. In medicine, science, business, religion—in day to day living—we must believe if we are to achieve. Jesus put no limits on believing. The world’s greatest Teacher said, “If ye have faith as a grain of mustard seed . . . nothing shall be impossible unto you.” Believing is the greatest magic in the world. Are you using it? .. ... ## I CHURCF | NEWS i CHRISTIAN John L Goff P_=t >r ar.d M>. h O. Ward, mis.-.* .nary to Jamaica Church *ch«joi at 9:45 Morning worship at 11 a. m. Chi Rho a.-d C V F A p. m.
