‘Quotes’
By United Press International
MOSCOW—Soviet writer Vla
dimir Kontorovich, reporting in
an article that the Soviet Union
wastes much of its brainpower
through sloppy planning:
“We have one million more
engineers than the United
States, but only 65 per cent as
much industrial output. Add to
this the problem of quality and
we still leg behind.”
HUE, Vietnam—Marine S.
Sgt. Bob Thonsm, commenting
on his fourth wound, one more
than necessary for an automatic
transfer back to the states:
“ we don't seem to have
many staff sergeants left
around. Guess I’ll stay around.”
WASHINGTON — President
Johnson requesting in writing
the Senate end the debate on
the civil rights bill so that It
can come to a vote:
“Again this week, the Senate
of the United States Is a crucial
arena for human rights. The
issue is whether we will
continue to move toward
equality as a fact, as well as an
ideal, in America.”

This Week*s Editorial
Especially For Women
Revolution In
Homebuilding
There is a revolution just over the horizon of the home
building industry.
Or so says one industry organ, predicting a gradual but
inevitable turn away from traditional concepts of single
family housing to a new, exciting future.
The organ is House and Home magazine.
It lists five reasons why the traditional subdivision
housing pattern will have to be altered to meet the de
mands of a changing world:
—“lt doesn’t use land efficiently or economically.”
—“lt doesn’t provide adequate privacy — especially
outdoors.”
—“lt creates a dull monotonous environment.”
—“lt doesn’t fit the life that more and more families
want to live.”
—“lt doesn’t offer anything excitingly new.”
The answer?
House and Home has pages of them. But basically, it
says the trend is to the multi-family housing design — the
twin house, the high rise, the condominium and the apart
ment “village” concept with lots of green grass, open space
and facilities.
The answer is originally in housing design, convenience
to work and recreation, low maintenance, lots of privacy,
with plenty of outdoor space to move around in.
The warning the article contains is simple — get on the
bandwagon or get left behind.
With the single-family dwelling taking a smaller share
of the market than it did 10 years ago — down from 93
to 65 per cent — and with all the other factors involved,
the warning may be valid.

CEDAR RAPIDS (Iowa) GAZETTE
Derisive jokes about the ethics, honesty and virtue prac
ticed in the U.S. Congress have been pungently traditional
at least since Mark Twain wrote: “Reader, suppose you
were an idiot. And suppose you were a member of con
gress. But I repeat myself.”
Another old one mentions the wife of a member of the
House of Representatives who heard a noise downstairs at
night, woke her husband and whispered: “John, there’s a
thief in the house.” The representative turned over and
mumbled, before going back to sleep: “In the Senate,
possibly, but not in the house.”
For its own part, congress has seemed little troubled by
this attitude or by the images of low esteem behind it
through the years. Now, at the start of a new year’s session
in the Capitol, insiders are reporting encouragement at
evidence that finally ethical measures with some teeth for
enforcement may emerge from work now on in congres.
The house committee on standards of official conduct
started out seemingly as a gloss-it-up and go-easy group.
But now it has, according to reports, developed a construc
tive attitude which promises at least a solid start toward
something stronger. ,
The senate ethics committee is reported likewise on the
verge of recommending both election-reform and income
disclosure legislation. These, too, come unexpectedly, and
rumor also has it that the income-airing call may be a
form of compromise: Not full revelation to the public but
information-filing only with the committee itself.
If these reports are accurate, the contemplated action
will not go as far as most outsiders think it should. But
even falling short of what is really needed, the movements
would make progress toward an ultimate ideal. We compli
ment the movers and urge they do at least this much.
That elicits yet another story, supposedly true, attri
buted to lowa’s former Sen. Guy Gillette before he moved
up from the House of Representatives. Reading news that
he might get a nomination to the senate, his maid naively
asked: “Is a senator higher than a representative ?” Gillette
confirmed it, noting that a senator represents a whole state,
congressmen only one district. “Well,” the maid then ask
ed, “is there anything LOWER than a congressman?”
Gillette conceded that in many people’s eyes there was
not. If signs of headway now indeed produce results long
overdue, his successors will not always have to labor with
that burden.

The Gazette-Herald of Peabody, Kansas asks with

mountain into its area because it doesn’t have any. With
tongue in similar position, we suggest that the federal

able experience along that line.

ANSWER®
‘Old Maid’
I have always dreamed of be
ing married and having a fa
mily , but I am already an “old
maid”, and according to a phy
sician it is unlikely that I w i 11
ever bear any children, aiqyway.
God has, and is, good to me, yet
I seem to be seeking something
other than what I beiive is His
plan for me. P.W.
There are many things worse
than going through life unmar
ried. Paul, the wise and dedica
ted apostle said: “I say to the
unmarried and widows, it is
good for them that they abide,
even as I." (I Cor. 7:8). Paul
was probably unmarried, but he
did not grieve over it, and used
his time and talents for the glory
of God.
You say you are “seeking
something other than God’s plan’
for your life. You certainly don’t
mean this. Go<j never plans any
thing for us except what is best,
and we are only happy when we
are living in His will.
I realize that every normal girl
wants to be a wife and mother,
but I know a great many spin
sters who have made a greater
contribution to others, and to
the Lord’s work than they
could have if they had married.
Perhaps the Lord is leading you
out into an area of great ser
vice for Him. Prayerfully seek
His plan for your life, and when
you find it you will have peace.
“Great peace have they which
love thy law, and nothing will
offend them.” Psa. 119:165.

PRAYER: O Lord, the vine of
which I am a branch, help me
this day to say a good word for
Thee, to do some service for
someone. Help me so to live that
all who see me may see Thee in

not something to be hoarded,
but something to be used.”

The thermometer is not
always the best guide to
how cold you feel because
it fails to take into account
the chilling factor of
winter’s icy blasts, The
World Almanac says. For
example, on a relatively
balmy winter’s day, when
the temperature is 35 de
grees, a wind of 20 m.p.h.
creates an equivalent chill
factor temperature on
human flesh of 12 degrees.
When the temperature is
20, a 15 m.p.h. wind will
drop the chill factor temp
erature to 6 below zero.
