Knowing this first, that no ' prophecy of the scripture is \ of any private interpretation. \ For the prophecy came not in old time by the will of man, but holy men of God spake as they were moved by the Holy Ghost.—2nd Peter 1:20-21. Have you a favorite Bible verse? Malil to A. F, Pledger, Holly Heights Chapel Danger Signal For Education BY RALPH McGILL Editor, Atlanta Constitution Current financial travail at two small colleges emphasizes the disturbing fact that the lot of the average private independent educational institution of college level is insecure. In Florida, Rollins College is engaged in a harsh and bitter civil strife growing out of severe econ omy measures, and in Georgia, Piedmont College is troubled because it has accepted a total of $6,000, in payments of SSOO monthly, irom the Texas Edu cational Association, a replacement of the Arm _strong Foundation, wnich is the creature of George W. Armstrong, violent follower and associate of Gerald L. K. Smith and others of that type, and exposed to the Dies commrittee in 1939 as anti- Semetic, The Piedmont problem is therefore of nat ional importance and significance, It was Jefferson Military College which, in 1949, refused $50,000,000 from the Armstrong Foundation, It had previously accepted $6,000 “without strings.” It then was confronted with the offer of millions if it would teach what Armstrong directed, and would allow him to name trustees. Though near bank rupticy the small school refused. The Texas Asso ciation was then formed, apparently to disassociate it from the national publicity directed to the Arnr st'ong Foundation. : Cince many of the nation’s small colleges are in financial straits, and since the Texas Educational Foundatien, with so innocent a name, apparently is casting about for schools to “help,” discussion of it is in order. " e social and political philosophy and the gen eral policies of the Texas Educational Association must be assumed to be those of its creator, George W. Armstrong. This shockingly violent mana, in publications of.cred for general sale, and in many public utter &n es, has taken these revealing positions: 1. He has denounced General Lucius Clay, the maznificent Army officer who bested the Russians with the Berlin Airlift, as a stooge of traitors who seck to destroy America. 2. He damns the Federal Reseirve Bank as a crea tion of Jewish traitors and stooges, and classifies its officers as pawns and agents of Zionist traitors. 3. He classifies Charles E. Wilson, one of the great statesmen of Amrerican business, and for 50 years one of the stalwarts of the General Electric Corporation, as also a stooge of traitors to America. That Charles E. Wilson is National Defense Mobil izer serves to bring down upon his head extra vitu peration. : One of Armstrong’s latest publications is “Zion ist Wall Street” which attacks, among others, the Morgan companies. This publication praises Gerald Smith highly: is advertised in The American Klans man, and other fascist-type publications. A typical Armstrong assertiqn is: “I don’t know if Harry Tru man is a Jew or not. He looks like ¢ne and acts like one. He was selected for vice president by the So cialist Jew, Franklin~Roosevelt . . .” \ So vituperative and maliciously distorted is the abuse by the Armstrong publications, that only the crackpot fringe is attracted. ¢ Apparently, because of this failure, the plan now is to get a foot in the educational door. Director of the Texas Foundation is General Van Horn Moseley, another friend of Gerald L. K. Smith’s, and one who has for some years been closely associated with Armstrong. An accurate measure of General Moseley’s philosophy may be had from a letter written a few months ago to the Chancellor of the University System of Georgia, attacking him for being associated with the National Conference of Christians and Jews. There is much more in the records of each of these men. Only samples have been offered. The educational foundation offers monéy “with-~ out strings.” But, of course to accept it is to let the camel get his head in the tent. It is not possible to accept Armstrong money without strings. To take it is to condone, covertly, his beliefs. This is a national problemr — and a red danger light for American education in general, and needy colleges with integrity in particular. The educa tional world must take notice of it. The small col leges with integrity have lived always .in the shadow of hardship and need, but none yet has sold its educational soul. We have confidence none will, despite the shrewd “no-strings” approach of any whose philosophy is one of hate and propaganda in behalf of un-American attitudes. i It used to be automatic to read the latest book of a well-known author, but now it isn't. There just isn’t the same tendency to regularize reading.— James Hilton, novelist. When we are spending billions of dollars to pre vent war by strength, it seems utterly foolish to count pennies in making friends behind the iron curtain.—General Lucius D. Clay, on cutting Voice of America budget. In the case of the female TV entertainer . . . the neckline is as far removed from the neck as she thinks she can get away with.—Harry T. Marshall, Cleveland councilnran. . s We Can Inspire Confidence By Asserting Our Strength A few weeks ago it looked as if the French elec tions could change the strategy of the Western World. The middle-of-the-road coalition which controll ed the government — at times precariously — was theratened by what Premier Herriot called “two monolithic oppositions,” the De Gaullists on the extremre right, the Communists on the extreme left. Now that the votes are in, it looks as if the “two monolithic oppositions” did pretty well for them selves. The De Gaullists became the most powerful party in France, The Communists got the biggest popular vote. But under the new French election laws, the National Assembly will be a six-way government; the four blocs in the middle can control things by coalition just the way the old Assembly operated. The fact that there is, in essence, no radical change in the French government-by-confusion is not exactly cause for rejoicing in the rest of the Western World, however. - Perhaps the new election laws made the ballot so confusing to the avérage Frenchman that he did _not know exactly wnat he was voting for. But the evidence remains that even if they lost nearly 80 seats, the Commies still have a lot of popular sup port, just as they have in Italy where they are now bigger than any single party despite an anti-Com munist government. Fear of what is around the corner is what is keeping France, Italy and the rest of Europe from any real stability these days, And, as Leon Dennen, NEA’s roving European correspondent, pointed out in a pre-election roundup from Paris, “Fear is Moscow’s stock in trade.” Financial aid alone is not enpugh to conquer that fear. We have to fight propaganda with propaganda to give Free Europe a moral boost along with eco nomic help. : Instead, we have not looked very stable ourselves at times. Maybe we are not afraid, but we have shown certain signs of the jitters that Europeans could well interpret as fear. Even though we are a new world, since 1776 we have had a heritage as proud—prouder—than any the Old World can bodst. Are we ashamed of boasting, of talking louder than the Kremlin? We have no reason to be. And we have no reason for not making confi dence our stock in trade. If we inspire the nervous Western Europeans with that confidence, the bal ance of power will be intact. - Then see what happens to Moscow’s progré;m of {ear. v r Another ‘Scrap of Paper? People in the western nations are well aware of the nationalist ferment that pushed the government of Iran into extremist measures on the issue of tak ing over the British-owned Anglo-Iranian Oil Com pany. But Iranian officials may come to regret the vio lence of their tirades against any and all opposition, Recently they flatly told the World Court the issue was none of its business. Yet Iran is a signatory to the articles establishing that court, and is thus bound legally to respect its jurisdictions and its findings. g Some day Iran may decide it needs the Court, or the United Nations. Its irrational flaunting of its own extremist views will not then stand it in good stead. - Truman The Explorer There are copies of a faked circular letter being handed around. It goes like this: “Dear Fellow Traveler: “We are asking you to make a contribution for a bust of Harry Truman to be placed in the Hall of Fame. . .. It will be placed next to the bust of Christopher Colummus, wno did not know where he was going, who did not know where he had been after he got back, and who went there on borrowed money.” Democrats are trying to turn this gag into a com pliment with the comeback: “Sure! Harry’s the boy who discovered tne reatr America, too.” i . On Sea, And In The Air When Mary Jo Shelly, former Navy WAVE lieu tenant, was made director of women in the Air Force, Pentagon wits coined this nifty: “oOld Waves never dte, they just get WAFted into the Air Force.” Miss Shelly’s appointment, however, has the uni formed gals a little steamed up. She was not only an outsider, she was not even a reservist in the WAVES. All three armed services have been clainr ing that they offered women a career. But now the gals want to know it can be called a career if they cannot get a shot at the top jobs, which are given to outsiders. No single nation has the resources to stand up against an onslaught from the Soviet Union and its satellites—not even the United States. — Paul G. Hoffman, president of Ford Foundation. I suggest that the establishment of a single de partment of defense and a single department of foreign policy for the democracies is both possible and urgent. — Owen J. Roberts, former Supreme Court justice. THE BANNER-HERALD, ATHENS, SEORG!A Canadian Prairie Oil Enriches Farmers With Mineral Rights WINNIPEG — The black soil of the Canadian erpralrie:, long the western farmer’s major source of livelihood, now holds forth possi bility of the new revenue, the promise that “black gold”—oil— may lie beneath. Rich mew postwar finds in Al berta petroleum fields followed by recent discoveries of promising oil traces in southwestern Mani toba and North Dakota have spurred widespread exploration across the prairies. The ensuing scramble between oil companies for favorable drill ing locaticns in many prairie areas has resulted in a'most “blanket” leasing of farmland and has focused attention sharply on the question of mineral-rights ownership. Many Farmers Disappointed Many farmers were disappoint ed to learn that while they held title to surface ownership, they held no claim on wealth which might lie under the ground. Many of the clues to the puzzle of min eral rights were hidden in the his tory of land settlements of the Canadian West. In the earliest days of western settlement, oil and mineral rights generally went with the land. The federal governmnt itself was the first to retain oil and mineral rights, and settlers who home steaded the West after 1890 have learned that oil rights remained with the government: The Hudson’s Bay Company, which once held title to all land the waters from which drained into Hudson Bay, kept mineral and oil rights on the land it re tained when it surrendered most No prescription needed HEX-O-PHENE wonder ointmer.t con tains the new miracle druﬁ hexe chloro« &‘hene which is so powerful it kills cer« n bacteria 4 to 6 times FASTIAR than sulfa or penicillin, and is J)er forming skin miracles in hospitals and ci‘mics for gh sicians and surgeons, HEX-O- H;INE is a brand new antise ptie now available in limited sugply for your use without prescription.

Railway Retains Rights Another large land holder which still retins mineral rights is the Canadian Pacifiec Raillway. It still holds 11 million acres of its orig inal 25-million acre main-line grant. Several other large compa nies also hold petroleum rights. While landowners are delving into the problems of mineral rights and oil rights, oil companies themselves are pressing their re lentless hunt for more traces of petroleum. In some areas where preliminary drilling has been promising, the value of oil leases has jumped from 10 cents an acre to as high as $3 or $4 an acre. Even without the discovery of oil, the exploration is paying off to the Canadian farmer fortunate enough }o possess mineral rights to his and. Piedmont Hospifal Scholarships For J P | Scholarships are now being of class of the Piedmont Hospital School of Nursing in Atlanta, ac cording to announcement by Miss Genevieve Garren, director. “Nursing service is the most needed profession among women today,” states Miss Garren. “These‘ scholarships naturally make it easier for worthy high school graduates to obtain training ne cessary for entrance into this vi tally important field.” Piedmont Hospital, which lis non-profit and non-sectarian, has one of only about 100 university connected schools of nursig in the etire country.

SWEEPER EFFICIENCY CURBED SHAFTER, Calif.— (AP)—The Chamber of Commerce has an nounced a solution to the problem of the street sweeper that was too efficient. Seems the sweeper—one of these tank-size motorized jobs with a big rotary broom — had ben scooping up street signs as well as rubbish. The city had put the markers too close to the curb. The chamber’s solution: lumin ous signs placed high on posts well clear of the sweeper’s path. _-,,—11 = B N N \ i R ¥ coOD;” YE! = 00 / o e W\ ' l RES , AW = ‘ - \ 4 «F X O 3 ” vAt A - | 8 . | 5 - ...\DA //Zd | / e K *® [o | ” A% é ' - / ‘T 0 : TIRE SERVICE HEADQUARTERS We can make your car TIRE SAFE * M - s : make your tires last longer!
