The Same Old Question Again
Delegates to the South-wide school of mis
sions, meeting at Lake Junaluska last week,
adopted a resolution opposing the use of the
atom or "H" bomb, any "similar methods of
human destruction."
A' part of the resolution pointed out that:
"We believe that the United Nations is the
only agency at our disposal today that offers
hope for peace in the world."
There is a lot of difference of opinion today
regsrding the use of the atomic bomb. One
school of thought is as the Mission group in
their resolution; while another argues that
self-preservation comes first, and those who
would destroy this nation should first be
destroyed.
One writer in discussing the world situa
tion has pointed out that 100 men in the
world today would sacrifice the lives of mil
lions of people in order to get to rule the
world. He suggested that the 100 be put to
death in order that the world could live in
peace.
J "The atomic bomb is a dreadful weapon; yet
jit is the only thing which Japan would take
note of in the last war. Had it not been for the
'bomb, there is no way of telling how many
additional thousands of Americans would
have been slaughtered by the foe.

The Miami University Colony I
This community is extremely fortunate in :
having the members of the faculty of the
Miami University purchase property near '
here for the establishment of a. summer;
"colony." ; ' '.. "J
An encouraging note to come from the in
itial announcement is that actual construction f
of some of the homes of the 28 members will
get underway during- August, and others
earlier in the fall. . ,, . t ;
The educators have been interested in the
proposition here or more than a year and
this is also worthy, of note because it proves
that this section offered them just what they
wanted. , .
The fact that the professors from one great
university are going to make this their sum
mer home, will be encouragement to other
similar groups to look with favor on this area
for about the same type of development.
This newspaper is happy to have the
Miamians become summer residents and
winter ones too and we look forward in see
ing their idea expand and spread into other
nearby sections of this scenic wonderland.
"Just Be Patient
On August first the Haywood Draft Board
will again set up office, after a suspension of
about 18 m6nths.
I As this is written, no specific instructions
have been received by the board, except to
Open August First."
The members of the board ore serving on
i voluntary basis, and giving freely of their
jtime to the patriotic call of their country. In
asmuch as they do not have specific instruc
tions as to their duties, and the line of work,
all persons wanting information, or seeking
o change present registration papeTs, 'should
wait until the off ice opens. Until that time, no
pall can be made for any persor..'
Don't bother the draft board members a
bout details now they do not have the re
fcords, nor information.
A Timely Dedication
The impressive dedication of the beautiful
windows in the Memorial Chapel at Lake
Junaluska on Saturday afternoon came at a
time when Americans are again thinking of
men and women in service.
The stone Chapel, of Gothic design, was
erected by churches of nine southern states in
honor of Methodist men and women who
served in the armed forces of this country in
the last war. A book containing the names of
the men and women serving their country
from the churches will be a part of the
Chapel.
During the ceremonies on Saturday, in
which church leaders and laymen alike re
dedicated themselves to the work of the
church, one could not help but have a feeling
of how short a time it has been since the
country was at war, and now the bugle sounds
the call to arms again.
But from it all, there came a feeling of as
surance, that one can only get from the
church and for what it stands.

He was thoroughly enjoying him
self, evidently, although he was be
ing held at the most awkward an
gle. His nose crinkled up and his
mouth was drooling in the way that
only a baby can get away with. His
head was baldly shining in the af
ternoon sun, and all the world lay
ahead of him. Undeniably, from
the way he was being carried, he
was a fairly new addition to a very
young family . . . but he certainly
was thriving and gave promise ofj
rewarding his pirents for having
introduced him into this world.

Capital Letters

A Distinguished Visitor
It is not often that you find a man who has
been pastor of the same church continuously
for 33 years. , ,. .... ..
Dr. Ralph Sockman, of New York, holds
that distinction, and those who have heard
him preach, or heard his lectures, can readily
understand how it is possible for him to have
achieved such a record.
He gives his listeners something to take
home whether his message is a Sunday
morning sermon, or an address at a' civic
meeting.
Dr. Sockman drew the largest audience at
Lake Junaluska this season, and had he re
mained longer the huge auditorium would
would not have held his listeners.
It was indeed fortunate that he would take
time off to come down and deliver two mes
sages that will be long remembered by those
who heard him. He came from New York on
Thursday, and returned on Friday, in order to
be at his own services on Park Avenue. Try
ing to be of service to his fellowman is one of
the keynotes of success, such as Dr. Sockman
is demonstrating.

Answer: It can be a major fac

of New York State Mental Hos
pitals is growing at the rate of
two or three thousand a 'year,
May hunger lake the place of
sexual desire?
Answer: Yes, at times when life
is reduced to Its most primitive
level. After studying survivors of
.Nazi concentration camps, first in
DP camps in Europe and then on
the island of Cyprus, Dr. Paul
Friedman reports that the effect
of prolonged imprisonment, espe
cially on Women, is that day
dreams about sex .and romance
are entirely replaced by thoughts
about' food.. This is in line with
Freud's teaching that all "physi
cal desires" are phases of a Angle
drive (libido) which reverts to
earlier forms when later ones are
blocked.
MAY BE DONE Perhaps this
dream is sharply on the way toward
reality. The State Highway Com
mission last week announced that
a traffic survey will be made on
Roanoke Island and the Outer
Banks late this month. Motorists
will be asked where they are from
and where they're enine. Traffic
count machines will be in opera
tion rubber bands across the high
way to you on other roads of that
section. The aim: to see if traffic
is sufficiently heavy to warrant
laying a bridge across Alligator
River and another over Croatan
Sound to Fort Raleigh. Total cost:
approximately $5,000,000.
If this is done, people living in
Oxford, Yancey ville, Leaksville, Mt.
Airy areasand in the other northern-tier
section of counties, would
follow Highway 158 to Elizabeth
City and down to Dare County,
while those residing In the other
counties might find it a quicker
trip to go to Washington or Wil
liamslon, thence to Plymouth, Co
lumbia .and practically run into
'he stage of the "Lost Colony" after
crossing the Croatan Sound Bridge.
