City on One Industry
While we are all delighted with the
tuccess of the Newton County Business
men’'s Association securing our new plant,
we trust they will now renew their ef
forts and soon we shall see others Jocated
on the Industrial Plot which they own.
We also trust the citizens of Newion
County will continue to cooperate and all
work togéther in securing new industries,
Coevingtonn and all of Newton County is
eminently suited for new industries.
Our neighboring city of Mansfield has
exeellent facilities with railroad sidings
available. There are numerous industries
which, if they were acguainted with the
splendid _facilities for industrial plants,
would lscate in our County. If you are ac
guainted -with anyone who has the entree
to big business executives, write them and
tell them truthfully of the many advan
tages of Newton County. They will be
grateful when they find such locations
available. ~-
Don Ballard is now aeting secretarv of
the Newton County Businessmen’s Asso
ciation while John Jernigan is on leave
of abstnce campaigning for the post of
Solicitor General of the new circuit for
the Stone Mountain Circuit. If vou should
hear of anything desirable, advise him of
this fact.
Don Wood and Marion Piper have trav
eled hundreds of milés in the effort io
secure industry for Newton County and
we take this means of complimenting them
for their industry and interest in our
county.
In our editorial last week compliment
ing those who had given of their time and
sffort in .securing indusiries for Newton
County, we inadvertantly failed to men
tion the name of Don Wood, who hag done
so much work in this respect, so before
he finds it out we wish to add his name
16 those who have rendered signal service.
Now, let's all get together and make the
supreme effort for new industries. Work
ing together we cannot fail to.be success
ful.

Posthumous Trial
Os Former Premier
Stalin May Backfire
It is readily agreed bv most observers
that Pravda, leading Communist party
newspapeér has reprinted the Daily Work
er article of US Red chief Eugene Dennis
on Khrushchev's diatribe against Stalin
under orders from the top command. Ob
viously, this is to set the scene and pre
pare the somewhat punch-drunk Russians
for some further revelations.
Dennis (and Pravda) describes the
crimes attributed to Stalin by Khruschev
as ‘“unforgivable” and without “historical
or political necessity”, and asks why these
things happened and whether they were
inevitable. The article goes on to ask more
pointedly whether the present leadership
made any attempt “to change anything”
while the Stalin atrocities were being
committed. “Could the past evils have
been checked earlier? How big and serious
are the changes now under way?”
But, since Khruschev himself explained
in his defamatory speech — with apparent
humility — that he and other Stalin
stocges were powerless and frightened for
their own necks, it is difficult to see that
a repetition of these unheroic statements
would increase his stature.
Meantime, in Washington, the press
conference statements of Secretary Dulles
on confusion in the Kremlin were drawing
fire from “experts” who regarded them as
too optimistic. “International communism,”
he said in a prepared statement, “is in a
state of perplexity and at internal odds
because basic truths have caught up with
it.” For ene thing, it is difficult, he
thought, to control such a system without
the “iron discipline and brutal terrorism”
of Stalin; and for another, those in charge
must produce “a succession of victories”
to stay on top.
In the questioning that followed. Mr,
Dulles was asked if “these perplexities”
threatened the position of Khrushchev. He
pointed out that the question “relates to
the internal affairs of another government
that T ought not to comment on”. But he
went on to say: “I am very much tempted
to comment on it. but I think I had bet
ter restrain myself.”
Next day, rebellion flared in Poland,
most explosively in the bloody riots in

Let's Not Forget
The Real Needs Os
Our Everyday Roads
There are two systems of roads in the
United States.
Best-known is the network of “dream
highways” — the four- and six-lane super
highways that are our “Sunday best”, for
the occasional long-distance trip. Less
known — but carrying nine-tenths of all
traffic — is the system of existing smaller
roads. These are our “everyday” roads . . .
the ones you usually travel when you go
to town . . . that your wife uses to go
shopping . . . that factory workers use to
get to work.
Congress has just appropriated a multi
billion dollar program for both of these
systems. The 40,000 miles of superhigh
ways to link our big cities together will
be built. But in dire need of immediate
attention are the everyday roads that rep
resent 99 percent of total mileage — and
that accounts for most of the fatal acci
dents, even though most trips on them
are the everyday short rides.
These roads were built in the '2o's and
'3o’s when traffic was light and few people
ventured onto them at night. They are too
narrow . . . have dangerous curves . . .
and need signs and warnings that will be
brightly visible 24 hours a day, to cars
moving at modern fast speeds. While the
super roads are building, and afterward,
the need for saving lives and moving traf
fic is desperate on these everyday roads
of ours.
Congress, recognizing the need for im
proving state and country roads, has pro
vided funds to aid states and counties.
These federal funds, however, can be used
only if the local governments also appro
priate funds to cover the rest of the cost.
Bringing our roads up to our needs . . .
eliminating death traps . . . marking them
with reflectorized signs and markings all
depend on public support of local officials
in their efforts to give us a complete mod
ern road system.
Let our state officials know you sup
port them . . . that you want local roads
that are safe and adequate for our vital
everyday use.
New Nixon Smear
May Be In Offing :
. ’
While He's Away
Having accepted the invitation of Pres
ident Eisenhower to be his personal repre
sentative at the tenth anniversary cele
bration of Philippine independence at Ma
nila, July 4th, Vice President Nixon has
accepted a further invitation from Viet
Nam to visit that country.
The Philippine trip is explained as a
gesture to soothe the Philippinos who pro
tested recent press conference statements
of the President which they interpreted as
endorsement of neutrality and disparage
ment of alliances.
But, with news of the Viet Namese trip,
came word that a new Nixon smear was
in the offing that would associate the Vice
President with his former campaign man
ager, Murray Chotiner, calling further at
tention to unsavory Chotiner clients. It is
not planned to mention that he also served
Senator Knowland and Chief Justice War
ren in similar capacity. The beneficiary,
according to Human Events, is to be “As
sistant President” Sherman Adams. That
the plot thickens during Nixon's absence
is, of course, a coincidence.
Unions Pledge Funds
- For Favorable Candidates
Vice President Walter P. Reuther of
the AFL-CIO (also President Walter P.
Reuther of the United Auto Workers) has
told that special Senate committee on
lobbying that campaign contributions and
lobbying are closely connected — also that
individuals should not be allowed to con
tribute more than $5 per candidate.
Mr. Reuther also told the Senators that
the unions will insist on supplying cam
paign funds from their treasuries to help
elect candidates the union bosses think
the dues-payers should vote for. We pre
sume, however, that under the Reuther
formula, a worker who disagreed might
be permitted to put up another five bucks
personally and individuallv for the man
of his own choice.

SUNDAY
| JESUS 1S THE SAVIOUR
' OF MEN ‘
Background Secripture: John 4: |
| 39-42; Hebrews 2:9-5-14.
| Devotional Reading: John 3:
| 14-21. |
| Memory Selection: Being made
| perfect he became the source of
| eternal salvation to all who obey
him. Hebrews 5:9. '
| The Epistie to the Hebrews is
| a book hara for the average‘
| Bible reader to understand. If,l
| however, we get a few basic
| concepis in mind, it is not sol
| hard as it first appears. I
| The Epistle was written to|
‘Jewish Christians. They had been |
itrained in the strictness 'of thei
! Mosaiac law. Many of them were
}sml observing temple worship
and some, no doubt, were still
members of Jewish synagogues.
But they regarded Jesus as the
Messiah. Many had heard him
| preach and teach, had seen him
| perform miracles or had heard |
?others tell of these miracles, and |
| were convinced that he had ris
| en from the dead. ‘
f Still, however, they were torn
ibetween their ancient faith andl
the claims of the new faith. God
‘had put his stamp of approval
[on the religion of Israel and its
’ rites and observances. Were thesel
all to be swept aside? Had God,
changed his mind regarding
these matters? How could it be
that the Messiah had to suffer
and die?
The writer of the Epistle to
the Hebrews attempts to ans
wer these questions. The words
“better,” “higher,” “perfect,” and
“fulfilled” dominate the whole
piece. Christianity was not a sub
stitute for thé Jewish religion but
God’s glorious fulfillment of it.
E The temple rites had been
| symbols; Jesus Christ was the’
i reality for which these symbols
stood. The writer shows how{
all the requirements of the Mo-‘
[saiac religion are raised to high- |
|er levels in Christianity. I
t Above everything else, a Sav
| iour is now provided., The blood[
of animals is no longer the sym
bol of the washing away of
| men’s sins, for the Lamb of God
{ has been offered up ,and com
‘plete and perfect forgiveness has‘
| Feen effected. 1
This Christ is alse the high
priest ministering in a greater
and more perfect tabernacle not
made with hands and offering
up a better sacrifice; for by of
fering himself once, he has “put
!away sins by the sacrifice of
himself.”
Throughout the New Testa
ment we read that Jesus is the
only begotten Son of God. We
creatures become sons of God
through spiritual rebirth, but,
Jesus from all time has been
ta Son, and his Sonship is dif
l ferent from ours and higher than
! ours. }
4 Man wss originally -made per-‘i
{ sect — in the image and after
| the likeness of God (Gen. 1:26).
| He fell through disobedience, and
'!his fall was so dire and calam
| itous that he could never expect
{lO be restored to anything ap
| proaching his original perfection
| unless God reached down and
| lifted him up. From the very
% beginning God has been teaching
i men to trust Him and love Him
iThrough the patriarchs and later
through Moses and still later
‘through the prophets, God sets
lforth his nature and reveals to
| his children the plan He has’
| for their salvation. At last He
| provides that everything He has
| taught men shall be set forth
[in a person, and the Word be
}comes flesh and dwells among
us.
] How did God do this? He took
| the Son — who occupies a com
pletely unique place in relation
ship to Him — and put this Son
into the stream of human exist
ence. He woh had reigned over
angels was now made less than
the angels. The Son of God was
! born of a womar. and became
!the Son of Man, subject to all
| the limitations of the flesh.
| The incarnation is the imple
]monting of God’s love for his
| children. The divine love goes
| beyond word, beyond every deed
| of mercy, and in the incarnation
gbecomes glorious salvation.
The worst things man suffercd
lin his fall was death. As a final
'humbling of Himself for man's
salvation, God permitted his Son
to taste of the most awful of
human realities, namelv, death.
lJesus did not just sample death
or sip of it — he drank the bitter
*cup to the dregs. l
| When he had overcome death. |
lhe had won his final and com
plete victory, for “the last enemy
| that shall be destroyed is death”
| (I Cor. 15:26). Christ, the incar-
I nate Son of God, becomes perfect |
| through suffering. ;
‘ This does not mean that he
!was ever imperfect or sinful; it
| means this his life grew with the
;passing of time nd that !hrouzh‘
{ suffering he entered into full
| maturity. |
| Jesus, if he had not suffered,
could not have become the lead
-19: of humanity and certainly notl
Séticor:
the Captain of the believers’ sal-!
vation. Jesus was a teacher. He
was a miracle worker. He was
the wisest man thati ever lived.
But for beyond all this, he was,
in a mystical fashion which the
mind can never fully compre
hend, the Saviour of all who
trust him. And the first thing he
does for us as Saviour is to lift
us above the circumstances of
life.
How can this be? “Because we
and Christ are one, “both he that
sanctifieth and they who are
sanctified are all of one.” Christ
has now returned to the gpirit
world and has assumed the Glory
which he had belore the incarna
tion. While he was in the flesh,
he could influence only those
with whom he came in contact.
But now he is in the spirit #nd
therefore he can influence every
one because everyone has a sou!l,
And if we yield our souls to
him, then all the benefits he
gained by his sojourn on earth
become ours. He is with us al
ways ,even uwnto. the end of the
world (Matt. 28-28).
Human language can never ex
press the glory and significance
of the salvation from life’s cir
cumstances which Christ has ac
corded us.
In the heavely tabernacle not
made with hands, Christ is “a
great highpriest ,that is passed
into the heavens.” He has been
through the experience of human
suffering, and because of this he
not only knows our infirmities
through his infinite wisdom but
is touched with the feeling of
them. He understands the power
of evil, for he “was in all points
tempted like as we are, yet with
out sin.”” Therefore, we can come
boldly to the throne of grace and
ask forgiveness, for our High
Priest knows by experience the
ordeal to which our temptations
have subjected . He wonr su
preme victory over sin. Our lives
ont let this BIU one get away:

are spiritually one !wth his if|
we frust him and submit to him. |
Therefore, sinners though we&
are, we come “boldly” and ask |
for forgiveness. We have no na-'
tural right to forgiveness, but he |
has conferred the right upon us.‘l
- So in this passage we see the |
second thing from which Christ |
saves us — the power and the
consequences of sin. He knows all 1‘
about sin — not, however, be
cause he was a sinner, for had he
been a sinner he could not have
béen our Saviour. He knows all
about sin because he has stood
before it and shorn it of its pow
| er. .
i 11 through his ministry he was
tempted yet without sin. Some
’unbelievnbly misguided and evil
leaders of God's people put God’s
Messiah io death. On the eross
Jesus, the sinless One, took upon
himself the sins of the whole
world and took them down with
him into death.
What does this mean to us in
the twentieth century? It means
that when we are tempted to sin,
Christ will strengthen us against
the power of temptation if we
call upon him; and if in weak
ness we yield, “he is faithful and
just to forgive us our sins, and
|to cleanse us fom all unrighte
{ ousness” (I John 1:9).
