‘Quotes’
By United Press International
LONDON —British Prime
Minister Harold Wilson, calling
on the people of his country to
accept devaluation of the pound
and conquer the economic
dangers threatening Britain:
“This is a proud nation. We
have the chance now to break
out from the straitjacket of
these past years. We’re on our
own now. It means putting
Britain first.”
WASHINGTON—Gov. William
C. Westmoerland, U.S. comman
der in Vietnam, commenting on
the military progress the United
States has achieved in the war:
“I think that it is conceivable
that within two years or less
that the enemy will be so
weakened that the South Vietna
mese will be able to cope. At
that time, we can progressively
phase down the level of our
commitment.”
AKRON, Ohio — Police chief
Wallace Boers, describing what
he saw at a plush motel where
three persons were killed by
carbon monoxide fumes that
crept Into the rooms from a
defective swimming pool hea
ter:
“They Just started coming
into the lobby and keeling
over.”

The Future
Os Our Schools
Griffin-Spalding school patrons are pleased with the
manner in which Ben Christie is measuring up as superin
tendent of the system. He assumed office at a difficult time
which was compounded by public shock over the untimely
death of his highly-regarded predecessor.
The other night Mr. Christie addressed a parent-teacher
meeting at one of the elementary schools. (Crescent.) He
was every inch the superintendent and spoke with the con
fidence and poise expected of the position.
Mr. Christie did not evade any issues. Instead, he dis
cussed frankly the problems which the system faces and
told how they will be met. One of the greatest is maintain
ing quality in all of the schools. This appears to the Griffin
Daily News to be the one big thing over which local people
maintain control, an area we can “ do something about.” It
will require the utmost in skill and leadership by officials,
but it can be accomplished.
The greatest problem over which there is little if any
local control is that of integration requirements. The super
intendent told what the Health, Education and Welfare
Department already has required and what the system has
agreed to do in the future. By now even the most adamant
must realize that local officials can not lessen the require
ments. All they can do is make the most of them. The
superintendent praised both White and Negro teachers for
their cooperation and work thus far. It seems to us that
this recognition was proper and due.
He also discussed dramatic developments such as un
graded elementary schools, additional college-level courses
in high school, “dome” classrooms which can be changed
from one large area to four or more small ones merely by
opening or closing doors, year-round instead of nine
months schools, and public kindergartens.
We wish that everyone in the city and county could hear
Mr. Christie’s talk. He has neither gilded the lily nor frost
ed the cake. He has just told things as they are and as he
and others in responsibility hope they will be. One feels
better about the Griffin-Spalding schools after hearing him.
A Sign
Os The Times?
The young woman swears it to be true and in this day
and age there’s no reason to doubt her.
She was riding her motor bike to work down a pretty
Washington street and the next think she knew—a flat
tire.
“Care to guess what caused it,” she said, more than
miffed. “A hypodermic needle, that’s what. Darn those
hippies anyway.”

One Is Born
Every Minute
ANNISTON, ALA., STAR
Like the poor, the con artists and the slim-slam sharpies
we apparently will have with us always. Just the other day,
a Georgia businessman overcame his humiliation and filed
suit in Houston to recover “hundreds of thousands of
dollars” he admitted to having allowed himself to be bilk
ed of by some swindlers who, he said, convinced him he
was the heir to 77 acres of prime Manhattan real estate.
Not long ago, the National Better Business Bureau sur
veyed 114 local bureaus around the country, asking them
to list the most common frauds and rackets in their com
munities. No. 1 around the nation was “bait and switch,”
wherein a fantastically low-priced (and worthless) item is
advertised as bait to lure the customer, who is then switch
ed to buying a higher-priced product.
The rest of the top 10 rackets in order were: Home im
provement swindles, chain referral sales plans, charity
frauds, phony credit certificates, business opportunity
schemes, debt consolidation gouging, victimizing the aged,
health quackery and eam-money-at-home gyps. (No. 9,
health quackery, topped all in dollar volume.)
AU of these rackets are but variations of old, time
tested schemes, yet millions continue to faU for them —
sometimes out of need, more often out of greed, but al
ways because of naive trust and failure to investigate be
fore handing over hard cash to smooth-talking strangers.
“There’s one bom every minute,” Barnum said, talking
about suckers, to which he might have added “. . . and
another’s bom to trim him.”

What with the population explosion and all, the say

understatement. Its supplement, “And two are bom to
take him” has become even more so.

MY A
ANSWER &S
Not All Saved
I heard a preacher say on the
radio that all soldiers fighting
the communists will be saved.
Do you believe this is true? M.L.
I certainly do not! This is what
the Japanese military leaders
taught in World War n: that if
a man was killed defending his *
country, he would find favor with
the gods. This is a pagan teach
ing not Christian, and noth
ing is found in the Bible to sup
port such teaching.
But other people have other
pagan beliefs about being sav
ed which are not Scriptural.
Many people believe that if your
good deeds outweight your evil ■
deeds, that this will qualify you
for heaven. The ancients believ
ed that God put your good deeds
on a scale, and your evil deeds
on the other side, and if the •
good outweighed the bad, you
would go to heaven, and vice
versa. But the Bible doesn’t tea
ch any such thing. It says: “Not
by works of righteousness whi- .
ch we have done, but according i
to his mercy he saved us, but
the washing of regeneration... .
which he shed on us abundantly |
through Jesus Christ our Sav
lor.” (Titus 3:5-6). |
We are not saved because we
are patriotic, because we are
decent, kind, courteous, or man- |
nerly. Jesus said, “I am the .
Way, the Truth, and the Life, (
and no man cometh unto the Fa
ther, except by me." He, only,
is the “Lamb of God that take- (
th away the sins of the world”, .
and if we depend upon any oth
er means, it leads up a blind al
ley.

I will bless the Lord at all ti
mes: his praise shall contin
ually be In my mouth. (Psalm
24:1)
PRAYER: Help me, O Lord,
to offer praise to Thee for the
disciplines and disappointments
of life as weU as for its Joys. Te
ach me to seek Thy hand in the •
circumstances of this day and
thank Thee; in the name of
Christ. Amen.
