WHAT would it take to make an; ideal world? Or if that seems too large an order, what will it take to improve the world we have? Os course any little thing may irryarove it a little. A better climate where you live; better laws, a more efficient police force, better equipment for schools and more adequate salaries for teachers; better trade relations with other nations, better government; all these would probably improve the world Somewhat. But all the schemes for the improvement of society have struck one rock: the jagged fact of human nature. • • • Wanted: New Men! Everybody knows that, to be surp. So when Christians say that what the world needs more than

anything else,) to make it a better world, is better people, we don’t get an argument from anybody who has thought about it. Everybody says. Amen! We do get an argumentover the question: How do we get our new

men to build the new world? Christlans above all should be interested ’in this question, and indeed they should be working at it. It is not one of these questions that just solves itself if you let it alone, Consider some of the wrong answers to the problem of how men can be produced. One is the lazy answer: Just leave the human race alone, they’ll do all right; human beings just naturally have so much good in them that if the "Dogooders” will just keep their hands off, everything will keep right on improving. Os course that’s nonsense, as any one can tell who will take a close look at any part of the world that has been left alone for some time. A world full of people left to do as they please will soon be a mess. Another wrong answer is: Imorova the breed; Take care of heredity, weed out the unfit, let laws of eugenics improve humanity. Well, that won’t work, because all that careful breeding can accomplish is no more than improving people’s bodies and minds.

• • • God’s Design Not that eugenics isn’t a good thing so far as it goes. So is anything that really improves people, as even barber and beauty shops do, a little. But nothing that works on man from the outside will improve him on the inside as he needs to be improved. In fact, what the Bible tells us is the simple truth that man needs not so much to be improved as to be made over. We don’t need revised men, revamped men, re-conditioned men; we need new men. The Bible tells us the truth, that man’s nature has been so affected by sin that nothing short of a radical operation will effect a cure. Madame Perkins tells a story of F.\ D. Roosevelt, that once over a weekend he took home with him some book by Soren Kierkegaard a crab* bed but honest Christian philosopher. F. D. R. turned up Monday morning with what to him was a brand-new idea which he had learned from Kierkegaard. “Now I know what’s the matter with people,” he said. “They’re bad!” The odd thing about that was that F. D. R. was an Episcopalian, and at his own church he must often have joined in the General Confession: “We have left undone those things which we ought to have done, and we have done those things which we ought not to have done, and there is no health in us.” No wonder Jesus said: “Ye must be born again!” , ' '-T • • • The Secret The secret in away is simple, but it seems so simple that many persons miss it. HowAis a man born again? What does] he have to do to be bom again? The truth is: Nothing. The secret is: God in the heart What do you do to make your home bright? You just pull up the shades. What do you do to have God's Spirit in your heart? Ask him. Open the door. You do not have to create thq sun, it is out there ready to come in. You can keep it out if you insist but you never have to coax it; you can't pay it to come in. - Just raise the shades and in ft pours. But just as there is substitute for sunshine, there is no sub* stitute for God. You. Without God, are part of the problem of the world. You, with God, you, changed by Him, are part of God's design for his better world. The name "New Mexico," the oldest state name in the Union ex* cept Florida, was first applied by Francisco de Ibarra in 1565.

Mission Rally Day At Lutheran Church Special Services At Church Sunday z Mission rally day will be observed Sunday at Zion Lutheran church, \West Monroe street, in the two morning worship services, 8 and 10:30 o’clock. The Rev. Harry Behning, pastor of Bethlehem Lutheran church, Ossian, will be the guest speaker for both services, speaking on the topic, "The Work of the Lord requires consecration,” 2 Chronicles 29, verse 5. The choir, directed David Embier, will appear at the later service singing, “Great is the Lord," by Haydn. Don Bieberich will be at the organ console and will also present a concert of mission hymns over the Carillonic bells at about 9:05 a.m. Special offerings for world missions as conducted by the Lutheran church will also be received at the Sunday services. Zion congregation’s goal for 1953 amounts to $4,500 for its church’s mission endeavors, and the money is gathered through Sunday mission envelopes and the special gifts to be brought on mission rally day. A goal of $1,250 has been set for Sunday ,by the pastor of the church, the Rev. Edgar P. Schmidt. Rev. Schmidt will exchange pulpits with Rev. Behning of Ossian and will occupy the pulpit at Bethlehem Lutheran church, which is also observing its annual mission rally day. Since the Ossian church Services begina t 9 o’clock, it will be impossible foi*Rev. Schmidt to return in time to Decatur to conduct the adult Bible class. Therefore, the class will not meet Sunday morning. T A feature of the annual mission day is the congregational carry-ln dinner sponsored by the church’s missionary society. Dinner will be served at about 12:15 past noon, following the late morning service. Families are asked to bring their table service and food' for the members of the famiy. Coffee and rolls will be furnished by the missionary society. Those coming from a distance are invited t<T be guests of the society. The dinner will be served in the auditorium of the parish hall. Visitors are welcome to attend the special services and to be guests of the congregation at the noon meal in the parish hall.

Ike Silences Squabbling On H-Bomb Threat Halts Conflicting Statements From Leading Officials i.

WASHINGTON UP — Official squabbling over Russia’s ability to produce H-bombs was abruptly silenced today by a blunt statement from President Elsenhower which emphasized that the Soviets already have enough ordinary Abombs to rain destruction on American cities. Informe dsources said the chief purpose of Mr. Eisenhower’s remarks at a news conference Thursday \ was to rescue that essential fact from the welter of confusion generated by conflicting high-level pronuncements on the Soviet Hbomb program. Within the past few days the public had heard differing appraisals of the status of Soviet Hbomb development. Defense secretary Charles E. Wilson said the time when Russia can wage H-bomb warfare is about three years away. Chairman W. Sterling Cole of the congressional atomic energy committee said the time is, “imminent.” Civil defense administrator Vai Peterson and defense mobilizer Arthur S. Flemming contributed to the confusion with differing appraisals of their own. Mr. Eisenhower quickly stepped in to halt the controversy. He an nounced that he has “asked all members of this administration to refrain from comment on Soviet nuclear capabilities unless they first check their statements with the chairman, Lewis L. Strauss of the atomic energy commission.” The President did not offer a forecast on when Russia will have a stockpile of H-bomhs and a fie-1 of bombers big enough to deliver them. Instead, he stressed that “the Soviets now possess a stockpile of atomic weapons of conventional types,” and have tested an H-bomb or the “forerunner” of the H-bomb< “We, therefore, conclude that th? Soviets now have the capability of atomic attack on us, and such capabilities will increase with the passage of time,” he said. He thus drove home a point which atomic experts and civil detense officials have long tried to establish—that eight or 10 A-bombs of the type Russia already possesses can destroy a city as completely as one of the dread hydrogen superbombbs. Republicans Sens. Homer Ferguson, Mich., and Ralph E. Flanders Vt. praised Mr. Eisenhower for silencing the H-bomb dispute. Trade in a good Town — Decatu*

Dr. Salk himself discussed "controlled” mass vaccinations in addressing the 22nd annual meeting of the American Academy of Pediatrics in Miami today. He said one method might be injecting alternate children with either the polio vaccine or a vaccine for another disease. Thus, here would be two “striftly comparable” groups. Or, he added, the polio vaccine could be injected into children of 3- certain age — preferably the age which has shown the greatest susceptibility to polio. The. comparisons could then be made with their younger and oldey brothers ! and sisters. \ He disclosed that since his first report" In the Journal of the American Medical Association last March, he has injected the vac-: cine in various forms intq 474 children and adults in Allegheny County, Pennsylvania, and in all forms it not only was safe — it stimulated the production of antibodies to fight all three polio viruses. Salk, who is research professor of bacteriology at the University of Pittsburgh School of Medicine, has now' vaccinated a total of 637 persons, mostly children, with the “killed” virus of he three forms of polio with results that were more or less uniform. One of the most important Was proven safety. Not one of his subjects contracted even a mild case of polio. Salk warned the doctors against assuming a “practical vaccine” is at hand.
