Post War Period Rural Housing + In this issue of The Times appears a citation notifying citizens of Dade County that Ordinary J. M. Carroll will arguments, p-o and con, if any there be, why he should not with nine other contiguous north Georgia counties in creating Regional Housing Authority, so that Dade County citizens participate in the post war period Rural Housing loans. The objectives of the Regional Authority of which Dade become a member, is to provide cheap loans on easy plans to farmers who will tear away old houses that are unsanitary and that are gradually disintegrating, and modern, comfortable and sanitary farm homes for and their families. To secure funds for the erection of modem farm homes, Regional Housing Authority will issue its nates to the Housing Administration for the amount of the loan, which coure, will be secured by a mortgage upon the property proved. 'I he county will in no wise be involved in the and cannot be held responsible for the debt. Under the which is more liberal than any other known similar a borrower may pay one fortieth (1-40) of the loan which will be applied as rental, and at the end of that period, property is deeded to the borrower in fee simple. For example, if a farmer should borrow $4,000.00 to construct a new home, he will pay only $100.00 per year, and have the pleasure of living n a comfortable, modern home during the period of payments, forty years. I This housing plan should appeal to every farmer home is not modern and comfortable, and we commend nary Carroll for his interest in better housing conditions for farmers, and for being awake to the progress and of our county. Why Not Organize a Chamber of Jh Dade County has many wide awake citizens who and think and plan for a brighter, happier, more modern prosperous home county; but all of these visions and are not coming true because we dream and think only as dividuals, and not as a strong, active, cooperative body of gresive men who can make our dreams come true. Dade County needs a county-wide Chamber of composed of farmers, business men, professional men and others who really have the best interests of Dade County heart, and who will unite and work in cooperation with their low citizens in pushing the growth and development of our county until it attains the rank among other counties it A county-wide Chamber of Commerce, with a Secretary and a Board of Directors that will give whenever necessary, can accomplish great things for County during the coming decade. With a wave of prosperity that will sweep our nation at close of the war with Japan, shall we sit idly by, calm and in our smugness, or shall we all unite as one man to grasp opportunity to secure things worthwhile for our county? Who among you is ready to head a campaign to organize Chamber of Commerce? It will take a small amount of time from your business, haps, but the accomplishment cannot be valued in dollars cents, when we take the future of our county into Who will volunteer to head this work? Comments by Other Editors "When a person falls out with their neighbors because politics it is high time they are letting up on politics and on a little more religion." (Ft. Payne, Ala., Journal). Truly said, Editor Davidson, and it is a sad emmentary many of our Christian people are devoting more time thought and money to support their favorite political ations than they are in support of the churches of their choice. Politics if taken too seriously, makes one grow morbid, tranges friends, and overshadows the really good things that taking place in the community, because our political beliefs not coincide with someone who is leading in worthwhile ties. DADE COUNTY TIMES: TRENTON. GEORGIA. THURSDA Y. JULY 26. 1945. LOOKING AHEAD GEORGE S. BENSON Presides t~ Harding Cill eye Searcy. Arkansas Independence Arkansas and Mississippi both can have splendid public accepting financial aid from where. I am prepared to prove statement with figures I early in May to the Education mittee of the House of tives in Washington. Moreover, these states can do well help, any of the other states can likewise. Federal aid is not anywhere. I have singled out Arkansas Mississippi for good reason It bearing on the subject in hand. Measured by a money standard, these two states are lowest on educational roster. Only one has less income per person than kansas, provides less school per student and pays its less; that’s Mississippi. These our two low states in the named. There is a Reason Poor as these two states are on a basis of income per capita, each them has more net worth than federal government. Our debt probably will reach 300 dollars before the war is over. Mississippi had a cash surplus 11 million dollars last year Arkansas accumulated 45 during recent years. schools are inadequate, due to tics, not poverty. What the school system in home state needs is not subsidizing. For example: a year ago there were 106 districts with assessed below $10,000. Some districts not raise $100 a year from taxes. School districts varied in from one square mile to 100 miles. Why Squander Money? There is one community in sas which, although it has only students all-told, is made up of school districts and thus uses busses to take the 35 students school and back each day. portation costs $600 a month one bus might easily do the job at a cost of $150 a month. saving of $450 would pay teachers at the prevailing scala. The problem is local and More money for such an operation probably would tend to gravate a bad situation and make even harder to remedy. The al government spent $80,000 for WPA survey of Arkansas schools 1937 and the analysis showed the state could have a good system for an outlay of 17 dollars a year. The outlay made promptly. Taxpayers Respond Arkansas’ income per person more than doubled since 1939, due new industries and new of oil and bauxite. More than million dollars were spent for cation in Arkansas last year, and recent legislature raised that considerably for the next Already about 25% more money being spent on Arkansas than the government-supported vey called adequate in 1937. This however is not enough. kansas should have better better financed. Arkansas should be better paid, probably salary scale ought to be doubled. for it when the system is ized and made efficient, but I pose federal aid. Easy money sacrifice state sovereignty on the tar of politics when we are really, to increase our school nue as soon and as fast as tions justify. »;.?

VU T ASHINGTON today is a vast » V stage upon which events of national and international moment crowd themselves with lightning rapidity and with kaleidoscopic clarity. They are events and pro¬ posals which have ramifications af¬ fecting the lives and destinies, one way or another, not only of our own people In the cities and hometowns in America, but of people every¬ where. And we criticize our congressmen . . . gripe at our governmental agen¬ cies freely and often, but, as a mat¬ ter of fact, it is amazing that with the quickening and increasing tempo of affairs here, the men and women in government keep abreast of the times and the respon¬ sibilities with which they are faced as well as they do. Just within the last few days . . . Victory for the Reciprocal Trade ex¬ tension in the house and its defeat by a senate committee ... the overwhelming vote of confidence in world cooperation by the house action of Bretton Woods . . . the streamlining plans for the Veter¬ ans administration by General Bradley . . . the President’s vic¬ tory in the Russian empasse at San Francisco . . . the Truman pro¬ posal for temporary unemployment compensation during the reconver¬ sion era . . . the modernization the governmental set-up as planned . . . the Murray-Wagner-O’Mahoney full-time employment bill ... all these are a few examples. And the Wagner - Murray - Dingle bill which will affect the lives of ev¬ ery man, woman and child in hometown and rural community America. It completely overhauls, and federalizes the present social curity law, bringing under its visions an additional 15,000,000 ers, farm laborers, domestic ployees, small merchants, sional men and women, seamen employees of non-profit tions. BILLIONS INVOLVED The new measure, a bulky, page document, carries with it propriations which will run into lions of dollars. The section on pitals and health centers alone for $950,000,000 over a period. That it will meet with mined opposition is a foregone clusion, for it attempts to ize all provisions of the act, except medical and public sistance, taking over old age survivors insurance and ment compensation from the and placing those features clusively in the hands of the eral government. Rates to employers are from the average of 3)4 per they are now paying to 4 per cent finance all the insurance and employees would pay mately 3 per cent more than are paying under the present but are given greatly expanded tection. The farmer is entitled to all provisions of the bill except employment compensation and porary disability insurance. would get medical aid, old age survivors insurance and insurance for which he would 5 per cent on his net income up $3,600. He would make his quarterly or semi-annually. If farmer has a hired hand, he deduct 5 per cent of his net for transmissal to the and records would be kept the use of stamps to be issued the purpose, eliminating any keeping. The same method would be by the small business man. He pay on his net income up to at the same rate, and if he has or more employees not now ing benefits of the social law, he would deduct their ages and issue stamps to the ployees to eliminate In some states from one to employees are not now covered the social security law. DOMESTIC HELP AIDED. Domestic help would come the same provisions. If you have maid, a cook, a washwoman, would deduct the proper from her pay on pay-day and sent her with stamps for her issued for the purpose. men such as doctors, lawyers, tists, veterinarians etc., also come eligible for the benefits the law with a cost of 5 per on net income up to $3,600. Briefly, the provisions of the bill provide: 1. A program of federal grants and loans for construc¬ tion of hospitals and health cen¬ ters especially in rural areas. 2. It broadens the present fed¬ eral grants - in - aid for public health service up to 75 per cent of amounts expended by the states. 3. Expands the community¬ wide maternal and child-health and welfare service, the federal government paying up to 75 per cent of amount expended by the states. It Pays To The Churches of Christ Salute You ROMANS 16:16 With Sound Doctrine "I beseech you there, breth¬ ren, by the mercies of God, that ye present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, accept¬ able unto God, which is your reasonable service. And be not conformed to this world, but be ye transformed by the renew¬ ing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect will of God” (Rom. 12:1-2). Do we ever stop to examine ourselves to see whether we are in the faith or not? (II Cor. 13:5). Too often we want to do things our way whether it be God's way or not. "For my thoughts neither are not your thoughts, saith are the my Lord, ways fro your ways, as the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways and my thoughts than your thoughts" (Isa. 55:8). In troublesome times like these, Christians, the light of the world, should be an ex¬ ample to the unbeliever, so thaf we might draw them to Christ, the Lamb of God, that taketh away the sins of the world. We can never do this with our own will. We must let God work through us. Righteousness hath no part with unrighteousness (Rom. 6:13-23.) “Again, think ye that we ex¬ cuse ourselves unto you? We speak before God in Christ: but we do all things, dearly beloved, for your edifying. For I fear, lest when I come I shall not find you such as I would, and that I shall be found unto you such as ye would not: lest there be de¬ bates, envyings, wraths, strifes, backbitings, whisperings, swell¬ ings, tumults: And lest when I come again, my God will humb¬ le me among you, and that I shall bewail many which have sinned already” (II Cor. 12:19- 21.) Too often many are guilty of backbiting, whispering, etc., which are sin. “The wages of sin is death” (Rom. 6:23). God doesn’t "Want you to talk about anybody; especially to their back.

That’s God’s way and the way to please Him is to act according to His way. With a strong purpose of heart and a determination to do the will of God we can attain the unity for which the Lord prayed (Jno. 17: 17). Oh, yes, it takes strength of character to tell one your thoughts face to face! It takes a coward to say things about someone to their back that they wouldn’t say to their face. God’s word condemns “whisperers, backbiters who knowing the judgement of God, that they which commit such things are worthy of death, not only do the same, but have pleasure in them that do them.” Read the first chapter of Romans. Lessons like these may seem unpleasant and out of place. But they are written in God’s word and must be accepted. Too often preachers leave off teaching that might make them unpopular. They will have to answer to God in the Judgement. Those who preach “what they think is all right,” even though the Bible says nothing about that what they are preaching, will have to answer in the Judgement. Let us ever be more willing to let God have His way in our lives. Let us never say anything evil about our neighbors. Let us never re¬ peat what the other fellow says about someone else. Then our community will be a better place in which to live and Christians will be drawn closer to God and to each other. Next week we plan to study the “Destiny of the Wicked.” Welcome to the Churches of Christ. We preach the Word of God just as it is written without additions or substractions.
