Quick Action SACRAMENTO, Calif. - KB — A woman seeking information at the North Sacramento fire department got more than she had bar-

gained for. Walking up to the front of the station, she pressed a button she thought was a buzzer to attract firemen. She attracted them all right. She had pressed a button that sst off the station fire siren.

National Leaders Give Views On 1957 Outlook

(Editor's note: Following is one of a series of articles by leaders of the nation on their views of the outlook for 1957 in their various fields). By Dr. EUGENE CARSON BLAKE President, National Council of Churches (Written for United Press) The increase in religious Interest and support in our time is heartening to church people despite some indications of superficiality and despite the moral decline which paradoxically accompanies it. If this new interest in religion is transformed into active Christian commitment in local Christian churches, I predict that the years that lie ahead will be marked by a rebirth of moral and spiritual conviction, in America. Indications of a true religious revival will be such things as the establishment of ne\v Christian enterprises and the strengthening of old ones such as colleges; schools, hospitals and theological seminaries; a drop in the crime rate; a growing stability of family life, and an increase in civic interest participation and responsibility on the part of the church members. If on the other hand this new religious interest is not successfully geared into the life and activities of particular Christian churches but remains a vague and general religiosity, I predict that there will be no long range gain either to God or to the nation. Religious interest that remains unrelated to the churches will soon fade out, leaving no traces except the inscription “In God We Trust” on some stamps as well as coins. What is more serious is the present tendency to suppose that God is served by our bestowing on Him our approval. But God is served only when men’s lives are transformed by Him. This transformation is marked by a turning away from the worship of material success, selfish comfort and superficial security toward the adventure of a life fixed and directed towards high human good for all mankind. < I believe we are on the edge of a true religious revival but it will come to fruition only if it becomes intellectually deeper, more person-, al and social, more practical and more local. I do not believe the day will be won by mass appeal and smart advertising techniques. It will only come out of revitalized Christian congregations worshipping and serving God in your town.

Warns Hoosiers To Halt Tax Increases $lO Property Tax Possible In State INDIANAPOLIS (UP)—Some Hoosiers face a $lO property tax rate soon unless they decide to, “call a halt,” an official of the Indiana Taxpayers Association warned today. Executive Secretary Walter T. Horn made the prediction as the group reported Indiana's 1956 property tax bill, payable in 1957, is an estimated $358,654,579. It was an increase of $34,211,346 over the previous year. Horn said 82 counties will have higher property taxes in 1957, but 10 will reduce the rate; Lowest rate will be 91 cents per • SIOO of assessed valuations in Lawrenceburg Twp„ Dearborn County, and the highest $9.76 in Dunes Acres, Porter County. “Although there have been increased collections from the Indiana gross income tax and other sources, the property tax has continued to be the work horse, or rather the pack mule, because its burden has become constantly heavier,” Horn said. “It is no idle prediction that within a couple of years various •local rates will be slo...unless the people who pay these bills call a halt.” Horn urged citizens to demand relief from the 1957 Legislature that meets Jan. 10. Counties showing tax reductions were Benton, Crawford, Knox, Perry, Pike, Posey, Spencer, Vanderburgh and Washington. Total reductions were $263,123. Others, with amount of increase, included: Allen $1,708,024, Bartholomew $400,111, Blackford $91,523, Cass $417,293, Dekalb $206,512, Elkhart* $1,019,364, Floyd $347,138, Gibson $14,709, Greene $61,804, Huntington $246,916, Jay $92,914, Kosciusko $162,828, Lake $6,057,971, LaPorte $191,647, Madison $769,146, Marshall $219,227, Miami $195,934, Monroe $350,856, Noble $275,192, Porter $773,387.

Tree Tip KENT, O. — (ff) — Cabling a tree to strengthen it is not as eaay as it looks,. says Martin I* D*wf« Jr., the tree expert. To db it properly, skill and experience are ed to know where to apply tlje greatest support. Other things that must be known are weight distribution, wind stress, character and peculiarities of trees and their physical structure. Simply wrapping a supporting wire or bend about a limb may stop the flow of sap and strangle it. The U. S. Department of Agriculture reports demand for farm products in this country may be 40-45 per eent greater by 1975-than in 1953.
