So, no matter how Reuther's battle with the auto giants turns out, it looks like Reuther figures Reuther is on one winning horse. A Unique Project A unique project for Noble county is now under way in the Mt. Ephraim community, sponsored by members of the congregation of the First Methodist church. It is appropriately called "The Lord's Acre" and means just that. But at Mt. Ephraim, eight acres of land have been tilled and sowed down to corn. The proceeds from the harvest will go toward the remodeling project of the church, which includes the construction of a basement, raising the entire structure 30 inches and some redecorating. The acreage will later sown down with wheat. The idea is an excellent one and certainly speaks highly of the Mt. Ephraim community for it means that many are banding together with a single purpose. Eight tractors were used last week in breaking the ground and the project will require careful attention thru out the entire summer. The Mt. Ephraim church stands to gain financially and it is truly "The Lord's Acre" when members of a congrega tion will donate their time, effort and machinery for such n purpose. Six Months fl.50 °PP°rtunity f°r you to demonstrate to one and all that you are proud to be an American. It is such a little thing for you to do and so many times, we are prone to overlook a gesture such as this. And another thing. Don't display a dirty flag. You would be far better off not to show any colors. There is still plenty of time to have them cleaned. Decoration Day will be observed in Caldwell and Noble county with fitting ceremonies at practically all cemeteries with all the patriotic organizations assisting. An interesting program is being prepared for Caldwell ^mund G. James to be the speaker, Ceremonies will be held Monday morning, May 30, at Olive cemetery. Details of the program are now being ironed out. Each of you, however, can participate by displaying the colors from your home or business place on that day. Jpin with others on this first patriotic holiday by demonstrating you are proud to be an American citizen. Do this by the "showing of your colors". Heads, He Wins. Tails, He Wins Walter Reuther, head of the United Auto Workers, is playing for the highest stakes in his career in seeking to force the big automobile companies to agree to pay a "guaranteed annual wage." Regardless of the outcome, he has a chance of coming out on top. If Ford and General Motors yield to him, he will become the most talked-about labor leader in the world. The pattern will spread. It may affect many smaller companies where the boss can't even guarantee his own pay check. Reuther probably realized this at Miami, Florida, when he stepped aside in favor of President George Meany of the American Federal of Labor as head of the merged AFL-CIO. He is too smart not to know that winning something as unheard-of as a guaranteed annual wage will make him stronger than Meany. If Reuther loses his fight, he can win one equally important. He will doubtless be given authority to call a strike if Ford and General Motors refuse to yield to his demands. The strike may be long and bitter. It could send the country into a tail spin during the Eisenhower admin istration. Eisenhower and the Republicans would be blamed and Reuther could claim credit for turning out the Republi cans and electing the candidate of his own party. Guernsey Kfemprials* lie. LEWIS E.

W I S E o O E W I S E By i£. wr. i»UND The art of living is the art of using experience your own and other peoples. Keep what you have till you get what you want.—Irish Pro verb. A man would do nothing, if he waited uritil he could do it so well that no one would find fault with what he has done. Wit is necessary to a clever talker intelligence is enough for a good listener. A guy who has a girl in every port will always be at sea. If you want to find out a woman's age, ask her sister-in law. An average man is one who thinks he isn't average. Not every one can do great things, but every one can do small things in a great way. Good teachers cost more, but poor tcachers cost most. I think it is good taste, and also good judgment, when a man prays for the sin of the people, that he should count himself in. —Josh Billings.

HENDERSON United Nations Recently I visited the United Nations building in New York and had an opportunity to see the General Assembly, Security Council and conference rooms. With several other members of Congress, I listened to Ambas sador Henry Cabot Lodge, Jr. as he explained the reasons why our country must remain a vig orous member of the U. N. If for no other reason, he stated, we must remain active in the or ganization to keep the Russians from dominating it, and having it become an instrument for the advancement of Communist ideas. But in addition to this very obvious reason, the Ambassador recited an impressive list of ac complishments of the U. N. in halting armed conflict and Com munist aggression in ciertain areas throughout the years, very real accomplishments which we often forget when we recall the times of dismal failure. Maritime Academy At Kings Point, New York is the United States Maritime Aca demy which trains- young men to sail the ships of our com mercial lines the cargo ships of America. The boys in cadet training at the Academy are ad mitted from all over the United States as a result of competitive examinations, and receive a course of instruction similar to that offered at Annapolis. After the training, received at govern ment expense, the licensed sea men then are employed by com mercial steamship lines. There has been considerable criticism of this program arising from a feeling that commercial lines should train their own men and that the government should not bear the expense. In fact, the Academy came very close of being closed about a year ago. Those who favor the school point out that the Merchant Marine is our fourth branch of service in time of emergency. It moves our military supplies to the far roaches of the world, as was so ably demonstrated during World War II. The Merchant Marine is also our first line of commerce in peacetime to further the econ omic progress of the United States by accommodating a tre mendous volume of internation al trade.

Stripped of its legal and parliamentary phraseology, it simply says that if any organization (which in cludes a labor union organiza tion) has compulsory member ship it may not also be a political party or operate as such in poli tical causes. On the other hand, if an or ganization wishes also to be a political party, it must give up compulsory membership and support on the grounds that compulsory membership in a political party or compulsory fin ancial support thereof, is Fascism —in the case of a labor union organization, it is Union Fascism. In introducing this Bill, Sen ator Lewis G. Christman, who is one of eight Michigan State Senators whose names appear on the Bill, had this to say: "I am today introducing a bill, a copy of which is attached, which I call a'Political Freedom BiH.' "This is a simple measure with one obiect in view: To pre vent compulsory membership in op-compulsory-contributions to political organizations. "Freedom of political choice is what distinguishes us as citizens of the United States from the political-slave citizens in nation? behind the Iron Curtain of com munism. "The Constitution of the Unit ed States guarantees political freedom for individual citizen. This is what I want to preserve in the State of Michigan. "This bill may be considered by some to be revolutionary, and probably will be subjected to biased attacks. But the basic concept of political freedom is revolutionary. It was established by revolution in this nation. Only revolutionary fervor and zeal for political freedom will prevent it from being destroyed. "My will would in no way pre vent voluntary effort or contri butions by any citizen in behalf of a political cause. It would limit political activity to in dividual effort and initiative on a voluntary basis, and any in dividual could choose as to whether or not he would support or oppose a political cause. "I believe that it is keeping with the spirit and letter of our Constitution. Compulsory mem bership in a political organiza (Continued on Page 2-B) //offesC /lews iff Hz w -tag* m***, ggJka. 'Sr Buick engineers took the hardtop body design that has been growing tremendously in popularity over the past six years and gave it four doors instead of two. Simple? Sure—to all outward appearances. But it took a brand-new kind of body with wholly new structural principles to do it—to bring this long-awaited new kind of automobile to the public in volume numbers and at popular prices. For this is a true hardtop—with the sleek and racy look of a Convertible, because there art no center posts in the window areas on either side. And now it has front doors for the front-seat passen* gers —and rear doors for the rear-seat passengers —plus room increased to the size of a full Sedan. (It took some special kind of engineering magic, you can be sure, to hinge all four dehors at their forward edges for greater safety, and more ease of entering and exiting.)

U S A Impossible —Yet True Dear Editor: The other day it was my privilege to visit a political leader of one of our Ohio counties. I had two or three very fine pieces of literature from which many thoughts should be circulated among the citizens. One of the books was a classic in its simple way of explaining what Americanism really is. It is a beautiful book done in color and many, many pictures of the high lights in the building of Our Way of Life. He thumbed through the book and threw it on his desk and remarked, "I cannot conceive that it is remotely possible that any person would read this book. It deals with nothing but Amari canism. It is far too radically American for us to even think o2 using. Anyway, I haven't any money for that sort of stuff." His remarks were disturbed by the ringing of the phone. Ha answered it and I listened as he said, "We don't want that fellow to speak. He will do nothing but outline Americanism. What we want for our meeting is a fellow who can rake the sewers and dig up some muck on our opponent." slipped out of his room and am still bewildered. What in the name of high heaven can we expect when we have such people heading our county organizations. Lord—how long, how long must we wait for true leadership?
