U.S. Must Learn To Live With Danger Noted Clergyman Cites Instability By LOUIS CASSELS. .United Press Staff Correspondent PHILADELPHIA (UPI — “My .greatest concern is the emotional i instability which the American

people have displayed in reacting to the danger of attack by Russia." That is a clergymans answer to the question which the United Press put to six prominent Americans- from various walks life: “What troubles you most as you look at American today?” The clergyman is the Rev. Dr. Eugene Carson Blake. stated clerk of the Presbyterian Church USA., recently retired president of the National Council of Churches. Blake is a big. bull-shouldered man whose hair is getting very sparse on top. He dfdWlot wear his piety on his sleeve. Interviewing him, in the downtown Philadelphia office from which he administers the affairs of his two million - member denomination, you could easily take him for a corporation executive rather than a distinguished preacher. Emotionalism a Problem His answers, like the man himself, did not appear at first glance to be distinctively “religious '’ But hear him out. “I know.” he said, “that you expected me to say that I'm concerned about the state of moarlity ■ in America, or the depth of our ■ religions revival,' or something I like that. I am concerned about those things, but the thing that ; disturbs me most is this emotional volatility which seems to be widespread in our country. “A few months ago. we were acting as if we had no fears whatever. We were moved main- i ly by a desire for economy in defense and foreign aid, for tax i cuts, for an easier life all around. Now we act as if fear is our onjly motivation We are ready to spend any amount of money, to; : sacrifice almost any of our na-1 ! tional values, in order to build • I missiles 'in a hurry.” Blake said he cannot see any logical justification for this “hysi tericaL fluctuation” in national I mood. "In my judgment, the Sputniks have no tmaterially increased our peril. "We have been in very real danger ever since the Russians [developed atomic weapons. We [will continue to be in danger, no I [matter how many missiles of ouri iown we build,, so long as a few [ i men in the Kremlin possess the [ I power to plunge the world into a I war that would destroy civilizaLive With Danger The basic prob 1e m facing Americans, he continued, is "to learn to live with this danger, 1— —- —n.s. ■— —

calmly and realistically,” s© that “our nation can make a reasoned response that wilt minimize the threat of war which we cannot eiminate altogether." Does religion have- a solution for this problem? “Yes, but it’s not an easy, patent medicine answer. - "I learned from combat troops I in wartime that there are two i philosophies which can enable a . man to live courageously with ’ chronic danger. “One is fatalism — the belief that I ‘l’ll get mine when my number . is up, and not before’. This can . produce a stoic calm in the individual, but on a national basis, [ it does not lead to much initiative or effort in trying to avert , disaster. “The other antidote to fear — the one which I most earnestly commend to Americans today —is what theologian Reinhold Niebuhr calls 'Christian nonchalance.' “This doesn’t mean that we ignore our danger, nor that we count on God to keep us ahead of Russia in the arms race. It means only that , we take vay seriously the Christian assurance that death is not the end, that the basic values of human life are spiritual values which cannot be destroyed by hydrogen bombs or space missiles" ■ CAssessors Meet At Fort Wayne Friday Upwards of 300 county assessors, trustees and their deputiess will attend the district meeting of assessors Friday, at . the court- [ house in Fort Wayne, Walter Koos, [ county assessor, announced today, i Assessors .trustees, and their ! assistants from Adams, Allen, DeKalb, Elkhart, Huntington, Kosciusko, LaGrange, Noble, Steuben, Wells, Whitley and Jay counties will meet in superior court 2 at 9 a m.

1 Revival Continues » I ; X I [ fii .Trintfy Church Report Attendance C' And Interest High > I Attendance and interest are rej ported high in the revival services now in progress at the Trinity Evt angelical United Brethren church. : Challenging messages have been i delivered by the evangelist, the ■ Rev. Wilson Parks. Sunday eve- • ning, his Sermon spoke of the need ’ of fellowship of the church in daily 1 lives. He said, “the fellowship of the church redeems our lives, and ’ we are lonely outside that fellow- . ship."' Monday evening, his theme was . “The parable of the buried treasi ure." He emphasiz.ed. “the king- • [ dom of God is worth more than all >; else that we can possess, and to F obtain the kingdom, costs us all we - have and are." Rev. Parks pointed but that “to find the Christian life 1 is only the beginning. We must ’ spend the remainder of our lives discovering the mind of Christ for our lives.” Tonight, Rev.

Holy Spirit can help any man make a similar change in his own life. The host paster, the Rev. Edgar P. Schmidt, led the informal hymn-sing and reported a summary or area - mission —results which are _ most encouraging, both locally and throughout the greater Fort Wayne area. A class on the fundamentals of Christian doctrine to which anyone may enroll without obligation of any kind, will be conducted by Rev. Schmidt beginning Fdb. 24. A special meeting of the Zion church council convened following the service and heard the guest missioner outline the importance of lay evangelism in the church today. He mentioned that the clergy is overworked and laymen must act as assistants to their pastors? “Communism and Mohammedanism have both made tremendous strides, and America must become alert to these advances or our unborn children . may have to bow to the hammer • | and the sickle.”
