Second Nuclear Test Is Again Postponed LAS VEGAS, Nev. <UP) — Adverse weather conditions today forced the postponement of the second nuclear tests in the Atomic Energy Commission's exten si v e spring-summer series at the Nevada Proving Grounds. The shot, scheduled for 4:55 a.m. p.d.t., was called off late Thursday night when a wind pattern developed which would have sprayed communities to the southeast of the test site with “unacceptable” amounts of fallout.

One Pilot Dies As Jes Planes Collide j One Plane Crashes Into Row Os Homes MINNEAPOLIS, Minn. <UP) - A collision of jet planes during a Memorial Day program at a cemetery, killjng one pilot and injuring 11 persons, brought demands today for a dual Investigation by Congress and the Navy. Thousands of persons, viewing the close formation aerial salute to the city’s war dead, watched in horror as two planes tangled and crashed in a spray of flaming debris. One of the pilots, Cmdr. Newell F. Olson, 38, liaison officer of the naval air station here, was killed when his parachute failed to open in time. The other pilot, Lt. John A. Forsmark. 26, Minneapolis, parachuted to safety, receiving only minor cuts and bruises. Olson's plane crashed into a residential section in the northeast part of the city, ripping a row of five homes with flaming wreckage.'' Nine residents were injured, four of them seriously, and two firemen were injured fighting flames that spread through die homes. Forsmark's jet smashed into a nearby vacant area, narrowly missing a playground filled with 150 children. The Navy announced a formal board of investigation into the crash would open today. Rear Adm. Frederick Kivette flew from the naval air training station at Glenview, 111., to head the inves- . tigating team », v „ . Minneapolis Mayor Erick Hoyer and Sen. Hubert H. Humphrey <D-Minn > urged congressional action to prevent future jet tragedies in the city. ' * MT. PLEASANT METHODIST George Christian, minister 9 a m. Church service. 10 a.m. Sunday schod. MT.

I [rur I InMrntfnra) Uniter* , Sunday Sr. beoi lesecns Ba<kyr_aaa4 Sartplarat Geneala 25:31 Devatlaaal Raadiafi I John 4:14-31. Rost* sf Hatrad ’ j Lesson for June t, 1957 !. . , . ... i i-1 IF the hatred between Arabs and Jews today threatens to wreck the peace of the world, this is made ■ worse by the tact that it has been going on for a long time. There is no hatred more bitter than that between brothers. The Bible shows that from ancient times, the most implacable enemies of Isrsel werh among those peo- ** pie closely re- **o*3 lated to them by race. Indeed, the stories in Genesis trace this intra- * family feud to • ho brothers, Ja- ' cob and Esau. In ■ the story of how A these two bro * thers became Dr - F«r«man enemies, we can see some of the same roots of hatred which may be found anywhere in the world where • one man or class or nation hates another. Inherited Qeerrels Aa Jacob and Esau grew up, the hatred seemed to be all on one side. Jacob may have despised his brother, or feared him; but there is no evidence that Jacob ever hated Esau as Esau for a time hated Jacob. It takes two to make a quarrel, but only one to make a hate... Or is that quite true? The roots of hatred are not always in the hater; they may be in the one who is hated, or they may not be in either one. Part of the reason why Jacob and Esau, though brothers, were not brotherly, was not their fault at aIL In their home, father and mother were at odds. Isaac their father and Rebekah their mother had different, even clashing temperaments. The two boys being quite different from each other, their parents at once took sides. The mother played Jacob as her favorite, while old Isaac did his best for the other brother, Esau. It can be said that humanly speaking, coming up in a divided home, Jacob and Esau could never have grown un in oeace. Thev inherited •• •• •••••••••*•••• •• •• •• *• • the quarrels, of their parents. And Inherited quarrels never grow less bitter—usually more so. Law-dawn and Crocked If one root of the hatred which Esau bore to his brother can be traced to their parents, another certainly must be traced to Jacob himself. He was hated because he was hateful. As Billy Sunday once said, Jacob in his younger days -was so low-down he had to climb a tree to look a snake in the eye, and so crooked he could hide be bind a corkscrew. The famous sale of the birthright has something decidedly fishy about it Some historians believe that Esau could not legally (as laws went at that time) dispose of his birthright, it was inalienable. In that case Jacob was promoting a criminal act. In any event, legal or not, the trade was not a fair one. Indeed it was grotesquely, monstrously out of line. One bowl of stew for a birth--right! Considering the power and (in this case) wealth which a birthright carried with It, the bargain was a barefaced theft on Jacob's part Then the thef’ of the blessing was even worse. It could not have been managed, one is inclined to say, if Iv&ac had been the least bit bright Jacob need nol have been surprised if, after that, Esau had muderous thoughts. When a man finds himself the object of another’s hate, the first thing he should ask is, what have I bees doing? » The Jealous Heart But hatred grows also from roots In the heart of the hater. It is fairly clear that Esau never forgave 'Jacob for that birthright business. Strictly speaking, while Jacob was mean enough, Esau had only himself to blame for losing his birthright. He was so much the victim of his appetite that a bowl of stew looked bigger and more important than all the power and responsibility of a great birthright. He was by no means as near death as he said, and be had no right to lay all the blame for the bad bargain on his brother. But be did, and the thing rankled in his heart and he never, tor years, forgot or forgave. So hatred may be partly the result of inherited quarrels, it may be partly rooted in a hateful attitude on the part of the one who is hated; but these other roots will wither In time unless they receive strength from the root that goes deep into the hater's soul. Conceit brings forth jealousy, and jealousy, long nourished, brings forth hate. And then not even murder is far away.
