POCATELLO, Idaho — Sen.

has a new idea, I’d like to hear
it.” .

perfect peace and harmony in
campaigns.”
ALBANY, N.Y.—New York

and Early Brydges commenting

Not A Cent
For Spalding
There are no federal funds this year, we are told, for a
water lines grant or loan to Spalding County.
No good purpose would come of criticizing federal funds
for golf courses. One is to be built in Pike County, and if
Uncle Sam is to finance such projects, the Griffin Daily
News is glad that Pike is getting one.
Still, it does seem strange indeed that golf courses have
taken precedence over water for a thirsty county.
To paraphrase the Ancient Mariner, there appears to be
“money, money, everywhere, but not a cent for Spald-
Sweden Shelters
U.S. Defectors
Why has Sweden granted asylum to 28 American
servicemen opposed to the Vietnam war ?
Sweden has been “neutral” since 1809, having managed
to avoid wars since that year. Technically, it is “neutral”
now, even though its government and all its political part
ies are openly critical of United States involvement in Viet
nam.
Last year Sweden allowed the so-called “International
Tribunal on War Crimes” to convene in Stockholm and
to find the United States “guilty of acts of aggression”
contrary to law and of bombing civilian targets. Now, to
America’s distress, Sweden has granted asylum to the
U. S. servicemen on what it calls “humanitarian” grounds.
It should be noted, however, that in addition to the 28
Americans, there are now in Sweden 80,000 refugees re
presenting all Communist nations, according to unofficial
sources.
Sweden argues that if it is to admit defectors from com
munism, it also must admit defectors from America in
order to conform to its neutral policy.
We regret the hostility to America which is being dis
played in Sweden, but the fact that only 28 have sought
“asylum” from America while 80,000 have sought it from
communism speaks mighty well for our side, doesn’t it?
Judge Orders:
Pick ’Em Up
A Kansas judge told a youth brought before him charged
with throwing a beer bottle from a car that he had the
choice of paying SIOO or picking up 100 beer bottles along
the side of the road and bringing them into the court.
Good for the judge. A few more decisions such as this
one would be a major contribution to ridding this country
of roadside litter.
Georgia and most other states have laws against tossing
junk from cars. Signs along the right of way warn motor
ists, but still they toss the stuff out.
We all gripe about paying taxes, giving little thought to
how much it costs to clean up the road-side litter.
Earnings
Limited
BOSTON GLOBE
“That’s the law,” says the Social Security Administra
tion. A person more than 65 years old can earn only SI6BO
a year without having his pension reduced. This seems like
an injustice. The insurance has been bought and paid for.
A private insurance plan would have to pay off at the
appointed time, without a means test. Not so, Social Secu
rity, even though its recipient may need substantially more
income than it provides.
So far as is known, it is now pointed out, no one has
ever challenged this provision of the law in the Supreme
Court. Congress made the law and if it is to be changed,
it is said, it is up to Congress to do it.
When the SS law was first enacted it had no work test.
That was added as an amendment in 1939, presumably to
reduce unemployment by getting old folks out of the labor
market. But times and prices have changed. From the
government, at least, people should get what they have
paid for, with no strings.

MY
answer®
BH
Adam And Eve
In Sunday School we discuss
ed Adam and Eve's sin. Some
said it was immorality, others
said it was disobedience. We de
cided to write and ask you whi
ch (vou think it was. We would
appreciate an answer. W.B-
I do not believe that Adam and
Eve’s sin was sexual because
sex was created by God for
married couples, and God had
told them plainly to: ‘‘Be fruitful
and multiply”, and such a com
mand would not have been pos
sible otherwise.
Adam and Eve were expelled
from the garden of Eden, the
paradise of God, because they
rebelled against God and disob
eyed. Just what the “forbidden
fruit” was, theologians are in
disagreement. But, I don’t think
it is too important just what the
“forbidden fruit” was (though I
doubt if it was an apple). The
Important thing is: Adam and
Eve were given the power of
choice; they were given the oc
casion of choice, and they
deliberately disobeyed God. In
love He had given them warn
ing that “if they ate of the tree”
they would die. (Lose their re
lationship to their Creator.) God
had no alternative but to expel
them from the garden.
Every one of us live in a po
tential garden of Eden. All ar
ound us are choices, good and
bad, and we too are given the
power of choice. When we deli
berately disobey, we become sin
ners by choice, and come un
der the judgment of God. Those
who choose to obey Him, and the
options He has offered, find
fellowship with Him. Though I
believe the story of the garden
of Eden, It is also a parable of
life. God is still saying (in love),
“In the day that ye eat thereof,
thou shalt surely die.” And it Is
still true.

Thanks be unto God for his un
speakable gift. (H Corinthians
9:15)
PRAYER: I thank Thee, O
Lord, that Thy forgiveness has
so changed me that I am a new
person. Though I remember who
I was. Thou hast forgiven my
guilt and made me Thy child.
Teach me obedience to Thee,
through daily discipleship with
Christ Thy Son, in whose name
I pray. Amen.
