SCRIPTURE FOR THE WEEK:

THOUGHT FOR THE WEEK:

dust burn to the socket. ? Wordsworth.
Go Back To School
"Today's uneducated young people are
tomorrow's unemployed adults." says Frank
Crane. North Carolina's Commissioner of La
"The only sure way in which they can
hraek that frustrating cycle and equip them
selves for good Jobs and a satisfying life is
to go back to school and complete their ad?
Concerned over the bleak future faced by
North Carolina's alarming number of school
dropouts. Commissioner Crane warned that
young men who leave high school before
graduation will tarn an average of 180.00
laao during their working lifetime than Ugh
ochoel graduates.
Crane said studies talso have shown that
uehool dropouts experience three times more
unemployment than graduates.
' lie noted that some 18,000 North Carolina
youngsters obtained employment certificates
for jobs covered by the Child Labor Law
during May. June and July this year. IMs
was about 1,000 more than die total for the
same period last year.
"Young people who have had die initia
tive to go out and earn money at summer
Jobs may be tempted to continue working
fun-time when they hear the school bells
ring," Commissioner Crane stated.
"Thoae who heed this siren song Instead
of returning to school will have a lifetime
In which to regret the short-sighted decis
ion" Crane warned. "Adandoning education
in favor of immediate earnings is the almost
certain way to a future low income, unskill
ed and uninteresting Job opportunities, and
. frequent periods of unemployment.
"Our increasingly technical and auto
mated civilization requires educated people
who can put knowledge to work and who
have learned bow to find out the answers.
Only thoroughgoing education of good qual
?y can produce such people. "

A Hard-Boiled Egg
nay by day medical research Is draining
the joy from our luxuries and dissipations.
Last year cigarettes went out in a thin haze
of smoke as the Surgeon General's commit
tee told us we puffers would die of lung can
cer. Long ago the doctors tried to scare us
off certain beverages by telling us of fusel
oils that would damage our innards. Now the
latest and unkindest cut of all has come
from some prying researchers at the Chica
go Medical School who thought up a dreadful
fantasy, undoubtedly at a doctor's cook-out,
and then tested their theories in the labora
tory.
In the current issue of Science, for all
the world to read, the Chicago doctors re
port that steaks broiled over charcoal fires
develop a cancer-inducing chemical called
benroapyrene, and that one steak is more
deadly than 600 cigarettes. We hate to give
up our charcoal - broiled steaks, but when
we think of the damage that 600 cigarettes
at a meal might do, we begin to wonder at
the analogy. It all sounds deadly. Perhaps
well have to stick to eggs. Even they are
not safe, at least if only lightly boiled, for
the deadly salmonella, an organism ready
to poison us, harbors in eggs. So tell the
chef to boil that egg hard and bring it on
with a pair of forceps.
? The Washington Post.
A Reasonable Request
The conviction that the Federal Trade
commission will not put into effect its rule
to brand cigarettes with health warnings has
heen expressed by Rep. Horace Kornegay,
of Worth Carolina's Sixth Congressional dis
trict
A member of the House Commerce com
mittee, Rep. Kornegay is optimistic that the
FTC win abide by the wishes of his com
mittee "and not implement its ruling te
bread every package of cigarettes with a
health warning after January 1, IMS."
Tt Is to be hoped Mr. Kornegay'* forecast
; will come true. R should be realised for at
least two reasons
One is die health charge against d
sarettes has not been proved to the satis
fwtion of the majority of Americans, that
I is net an opinion R is based on the fact
Anx'Tican* btp smoking more* than ever, yo
Service. 48.7 billion cigarettes were manu
factured and removed from factories in
?Tone. That is nearly 3 billion more than In
January, when the Surgeon General's re
port was released, and 3 4 billion more than
a year ago.
Hie second reason we oppose the plans
of the FTC to brand the cigarette is tt sets
a precedent in condemnation of a legal
commodity. If this can be dond to the cig
arette, it can he done to beverages and pos
sibly foods later when certain individuals
and groups claim their consumption is dan
gerous even though their contentions may
he founded on weak and incomplete re
search.
Previously, Rep Kornegay had called
the FTC ruling "a bora and arrogant grab
tor power "
Those words may seem harsh. But tt is

should be had for its consideration by all
concerned before it Is adopted. That Is what
the House Commerce committee rlghtfullj
asks. It's request ought to be grandted In the

of this nature usually are reached through

SENATOR
SAM ERVIN
* SAYS * |
The Foreign aid authoriza
tion bill has become the Senate
means of legislating on the
questions raised by the Su
preme Court decision to reap
portion membership of both ho
uses of the State legislatures
on the basis of its "one man,
one vote" criteria. Senators
Mansfield and Dirksen have co
sponsored a measure to premtt
"stays of court proceedings"
in instances where a Federal
court requires hasty reappor
tionment if a State legislature.
This proposal which started a
Senate filibuster by some op
ponents grew out of a ground
?well of public opinion ques
tioning the judical authority
and wisdom of the June 16th
court decisions handed down
against six states.
The House, whose members
have authored mare than 130
resolutions to restrict or modi
fy the effect of the decisions,
has taken stronger action al
ready by the passage of the
Tuck Bill which withdraws
from the United States courts
both original and appellate jun
isdiction over reapportion
ment cases.
The effect of these Congres
sional actions is to publicly air
feelings that have developed
over the most controversial
Court decision in many a year.
At stake in the controversy are
the most fundamental ques
tions of government These in
volve the power of the Federal
courts to take jurisdiction of
reapportionment cases, the
power of Congress to regulate
the jurisdiction of the Federal
courts, the system of checks
and balances traditional in our
Federal system of government
and the wisdom of setting the
Federal courts up as the body
to determine how matters of
representation shall be settled.
For 160 years the Federal
courts, by reason of the Su
preme Court's refusal to enter
this political thicket, considered
apportionment a question be
yond their several Jurisdic
tions. With the handing down of
the June 15th decisions, how
ever, the Federal courts are
now permitted to decide the
most difficult and grave ques
tions oft state representation.
'the question beforb Congress
srocs far beyond the need in
many Instances of State legis
lative apportionment reforms.
R relates to all the complex
governmental questions discus
sed above, and the simpler is
sue of whether the Federal
Judiciary should have the pow
er to dictate hasty political
judgments which long experi
ence has determined should be
vested in the people and their
legislatures.
The opposition to this Su
preme Court decision comes
from all sections of the nation.
It steins from the fact that 44
or more states may have to re
vamp their legislatures in the
immediate future as a result
of the opinion of six m4n
whose opinion was opposed by
three others unless Congress
acts promptly.
In what manner the Congress
will finally act on these mea
sures no one can now foretell.
The Mansfield-Dirksen rider to
the Foreign Aid bfll and House
passage of the Tuck bill have
made it clear that a consider
able body of Congress is ready
to declare that the Court has
gone beyond the bounds of pra
cticality and wisdom in the
area of state legislative appor
tionment.

THOU Air THE MAN
rHE STORY of David's great
sin sets in bold relief a
treat king of ancient Israel a
cion of one of the oldest races
n the world?Uriah the Hittite, a
aithful and incorruptible retainer
if David, a beautiful woman?
Sathsheba, and Nathan?stern
irophet who could rebuke a king
n his wickedness.
King David from his palace saw
Sathsheba bathing, desired her,
ind sent messengers to bring her
nto the palace. Then David, to
over his sin, bade Uriah, who
tad come to Jerusalem to report
o David news of the siege the
irmy was pressing against Rab
>ah to go to his house, declined
vith the statement 'that it was
lot proper for him to do so when
he soldiers of Israel were in the
leld.
Whereupon, David resolved to
lo away with.Uriah ii^g manner
hat would make it appear that
? was a normal casualty of war.
rhe King gave order 4h at Uriah
ihould be placed in the "forefront
>f the hottest battle" and to be
eft alone to die before the walls
>f Rabbah. And so was the bloody
leed carried out
Soon a visitor appeared in the
palace of David?Nathan the
prophet told David of a rich
nan who had taken from a poor
nan all that he had. Then David
waxes strong in his wrath and as
from a pinnacle of virtue declared
that the rich man should die.
rhen, as I have imagined, Nathan
took a step nearer the throne and
lifted a long accusing finger in
the face of the monarch, while he
solemnly declared, "Thou art the
man."
David repented bitterly and in
bis anguish some believe he wrote
In Psalm 81, "Have mercy upon
me, O God, according to thy ten
der mercies . . . blot out my
transgressions."
