Almanac
For
Today
By United Press International
Today is Tuesday, June 10,
the 161st day of 1969 with 204 to
follow.
The moon is between its last
quarter and new phase.
The morning stars are
Mercury, Venus and Saturn.
The evening stars are Mars
and Jupiter.
On this day in history:
In 1898 United States Marines
began the invasion of Cuba in
the Spanish-American War.
In 1940 Italian dictator Benito
Mussolini declared war on
France and Britain.
In 1942 the German Gestapo
burned the tiny Czechoslova
kian village of Lidice after
shooting 173 men and deporting
women and children to concen
tration camps.
In 1967 the Soviet Union
broke diplomatic relations with
Israel after Israel announced a
major victory over Syria as
both Mideast nations accepted
a United Nations cease-fire.
Thought For Today
A thought for the day: Aesop
said, “Self conceit may lead to
self-destruction.”
Withdrawal:
token or not?
It is still much too early to make any last
ing judgment on whether the withdrawal of
25,000 American soldiers from South Viet
nam, announced by President Nixon at his
Midway Island conference with President
Thieu, is merely the "token gesture" num
erous critics of the war have branded it.
While it is "token" in the sense that it
represents only about 1 -22 of the total U.S.
personnel in South Vietnam, much depends
on what kind of troops they are. Not all the
half-million-plus Americans are frontline
soldiers, by any means. For every man who
actively engages with the enemy, dozens
more are required in supply and support
roles.
What is ultimately disappointing in the
announcement, welcome as it is after four
years of seemingly endless escalation and
deeper American involvement in the war,
is that it was not presented as the first step
in a scheduled series of similar withdraw
als.
The President said that he would an
nounce plans for further redeployment of
U. S. forces as decisions are made in the
future, but there was no indication of the
hoped-for scope or timing of such redeploy
ment - say 25,000 troops in August, an
other 25,000 by the end of this year, pos
sibly a total of 100,000 by the end of 1970.
Until it becomes unmistakably plain to
Hanoi that South Vietnam is definitely
acquiring the capability to assume an in
creasing share of its own defense, the fact
that 25,000 American troops are going
home is unlikely to have any dramatic ef
fect on the progress of the peace negotia
tions in Paris.
And until it becomes clear to Americans
that the 25,000 are the vanguard of 500,-
000 more, Midway is unlikely to satisfy for
long the still-high expectations concerning
the new administration's ability to find the
formula that will end the war.
What price
writing talent?
Supreme Court Justice William O. Douglas is being
criticized for writing a magazine article on folk singers be
cause the article appeared in a publication owned by Ralph
Ginsburg whose conviction on an obscenity charge was
upheld by the high court.
The article appeared in Avante Garde, one of those
way-out types of magazines.
Sen. Paul J. Fannin (R. Ariz.) is critical of the article
and the author, contending that Justice Douglas should not
have agreed to write it.
Justice Douglas is a prolfic writer. His articles have ap
peared in a number of publications and under his byline.
One wonders if he is any more of an authority on folk
singers than are three or four dozen struggling profession
al magazine article writers who don’t have the magic of
the title of justice of the Supreme Court.
Nor can one help but suspect that if some hard-working
professional writer had submitted a similar piece to the
magazine would it have been accepted.
One also questions the ethics of a justice accepting pay
for authoring an article of any kind.

MY A
ANSWER W]
Cursing
I work in a shop as a laborer
with men who curse and blasp
heme. I feel that my Christian
life is being hindered. Do y o u
think I should quit my job? R.
M.
There Is certainly nothing wr
ong with the work you are doing.
Labor is honorable, and has
been respected by both God and
man. It would be a tragedy if all
Christians forsook their place
of employment to be with other
Christians. It would be different
If your work itself was contrary
to Christian principles. I have a
suggestion for you which I be
lieve will be helpful. You should
accept this place of labor as
an opportunity to bring the Gos
pel to some who will not listen
to a preacher. You must be
God’s witness In that place, and
if you are found faithful In that
small responsibility, God will
give you greater opportunity..
You must let them know that
Jesus Christ Is your Savior
and Lord. If you found em
ployment where all were In ag
reement with you, where would
you have opportunity for a wit
ness? Remember, that their
profanity and Godlessness should
by contrast, cause you to be
thankful for the change God has
brought about in your life.
