A SLAP INTHE FACE

turned hack to the U. .S. $750,000
of already allocated Federal hous-

be used to “arm our men to fight.”

WHY THE STRIKES?
We really can't understand why
there are so many. many labor
strizes thruout the country. Could
Communistic representatives have
crept in at these places? Surely
true Amerieins would not think of
striking at a time like this particu-
larly those 4500 Air Force em-
ploves who’ are - producing .thé

Fire Companies and firemen cer-
fainly have their “trials and tribu-
ations”. as a re:l honest Pennsyl-
vania Dutchman remarked, but,
like individuals, some are hit hard-
er than sthers.
The Brickerville Fire Co. surely
faces a most unusual predicament.
Some one stole the membership
list.

That reealls an incident which
occurred right here in Mount Joy
many years ago. We were facing a
veal hot peitical campaign and the
Bulletin - began publishing extracts
from the Baro Council minute
book. Suddenly the record bosk
was removed from the Boro’s safe
and nothing has been seen or heard
of it since.

OPENING THEIR EYES
Many of you will remember,
particularly our farmers. how the
Government tried to keep demand
and prices of farm crops abeve nor- |
mal by controlling production. To
us this always seemed silly.
When a farmer has productive
land he is forbidden to produce
crops thereon.
Lact Friday the government re-
moved all restrictions and this
wear, at least, farmers can grow
all the corn and whezt they care |
to—provided ‘he Supreme Ruler
provides the rain and sunshine to
mature what they plant.
It is far wiser ‘sc have one ear
of corn or a bushel of wheat in
your bin when yuu need it than to
depend on next year’s production.

NOT THIS YEAR
In th> unually cold New England
states last January, flowers were
blooming outside the house while
folks inside wer» busily removing
the Christmas greens. Not so this
year. For those who feel tht New
Year should be a date when the
seasonal vear is really new. such as
Spring, they had their wish last
January. This winter weather has |
been a (ough customer, snow came | breakage
early and stayed,
But it is not a dead world. Snow |
and frost are fresh and new, they
are the cover on the book that tells
the tale of Spring. The flowers
that bloomed in January of 1950
were aut eof order in the scheme of
things, and 1951 has seen to keep-
ing them in their place until the
proper time. Who are we to argue
with Nature?

AMERICA SINGS
| When Borden invented conden-
| fed milk in January 1874, little did
he think the day would come when
| Elsie would talk, a much later in-
| vention of radio and television.
Elsie will probably soon sing, ev-
erybedy else is! Yeu just can’t get
way from advertising songs. They
sell soap and cigarettes, chewing
gum and beauty lotions, beer and
scouring powder. We wouldn't be
surprised to find the butcher and
baker greeting us in the shop with
a singing commercial, the plumber
and milkman offering a tuneful
earful of their brand, the news-
boy and haberdasher bursting in-
to a snappy number, all based on
the premise that a catchy air makes
{a snappy sale. Imagine carrying a
tune so far that a motorman sings
the station stops, the postman bass-
oes a profundo as he delivers the
mail, the power company sends
tested tenors to read the meter.
Hasten, James, my throat gargle
and spray, that I may raise my
voice in song.

ON OUR OWN
The matter with voluntary con-
trols is human nature. Why didn’t
the government begin earlier to
impose mandatory controls, asks a
local critic? Maybe capable men
needed at such a time are difficult
to, lure to Washington, to take on
Hard, thankless jobs that are un-
steady, pay low salaries, are open
to constant, severe political attack.
Anyhow, we are now asked, as pa-
triotic folk to voluntarily refrain
from charging too much. paying
too much, buying too much. Self-
controlled, duty hound, civie-mind-
ed citizenry ‘would make an ideal
situation but, unfortunately, the
plan didn’t work when voluntary
price control was tried during
World War IIL and human nature
hasn't changed since then. It did
not work at the time of the Civil
War when voluntary enlistment,
with an inducement of cash bonus-
es, didn't appeal and finally the
draft system was inaugurated.
It is the same old story over
again, to hold the excess demand
over the limited supply, to make
a s'zble price level. Voluntary or
mandatory, the control may restrain |
trols are used to reduce the con-
sumer’s démand for goods. This is |

measure to reduce spending, though

Though they be in the midst of dangers, do Thou send Thy guardian
angels for their protection, Walk beside them as they go through the
valley of the shadow of death.
Knowing that all good things come from ‘inee, grant them courage and
loyalty, through a firm faith in {reedom’s cause, in the present
conflict. When sacrifices are called for, let them be made in the
knowledge that Thou art the rewarder of Thy servants Enable them
to live valiantly and serve nobly, in the full realization that no man
liveth unto himself. Grant them clear minds, strong bodies, resolute
wills, and pure hearts free from hatred and bitterness, renewing them
each and every day
with strength, like strong men of old,
who against enthroned wrong stood with confidence and courage.
Awaken in them a lively faith that will keep them close to Thee.
Enable them to rest their cause upon Thy Word that though the foe
be strong, yet knowing the cause as they battle for the
right, they can never fail Fill their hearts with the assurance
that with Thee nothing is impossible and that all things work together
for good to them that love Thee.
If it be Thy will tha
t injuries be sustained, let them exper-
ience the. touch of Thy healing hand and do Thou bless the means
and the ministries employed for the restoration of their health.
In these difficult tim
es, when. the forces of evil are running
rampant and many hopes seem about to be crushed, fill their
hearts with an abiding sense of Thy reality and the certainty of
Thy. continual presence. Enable them to look to Thee when loneliness
and longing overtake them; fulfill their vearnings by granting
them Thine own companionship and fellowship. Enable them to
realize the full meaning of Thy promise, “Lo, I am with you always.”
Thou who are the Protector and Helper as well as the Giver of
victory, grant unto them every good gift of body and soul and unite
us with them in faith and love unceasing. Amen.
