In his challenge to the churches of today Evangelist Haycock said, ‘‘The preachers should be the highest paid public servant in each community.'

Engle, the pastor, extends a cordial welcome to these nightly services starting at 7:30 o clock. —o DEMOCRATS IN CONTINUED FROM PAGE ONE relief and social security legislation which will top this session in importance and bitterness in debate.
