Seaway May Hurt Automobile Firms By JACK VANDENBERG UPI Automotive Editor DETROIT < UPI i—The St. Lawrence Seaway may hurt the American automobile industry before it helps it. That is the impression left by conversations with top officials in the auto industry’s export business. ■■ ----- Without exception these officials say it will be some time before the auto industry will be able to tell exactly how much the seaway will help them, if at all. ‘•lmmediate effects of the St. Lawrence Seaway will be felt by automobile importers to the -J* lOMff BROTHERS I RANCH RED BARR PAINT * Covers solidly more 1 square feet of surface per gallon., ~'W ’| 0 Economical!—saves ) time, labor, money. ) • Extremely durable! < , e-lasts muchlonger.

[United States because it will fowler their transportation charges on inland deliveries,” said M.L. Hudson. director of automotive export sales for American Motors. •‘lt will be some time before American export benefits because the market potential for American cars in Europe is 16W at the present time," he said. "Service to points other than Europe, such as South America, may have an earlier effect on American exports. however." Studebaker - Packard Corp., which handles import of Mer-cedes-Benz cars into the United States, backed up Hudson’s statement. F.L. Armstrong, general sales manager of Mercedes-Benz Sales Inc.', a S-P subsidiary, said the opening of the seaway to large ocean-going ships will result in slightly lower prices for importcar buyers living near ports of entry. The first full cargo of 158 Mercedes - Benz cars to pass through the seaway arrived at Muskegon, Mich., last week. A French-built freighter arrived in Chicago earlier this week with a cargo of 600 Renault Dauphines. llt was the largest shipment of automobiles ever to reach Chicago by sea. But the American automobile manufacturer to make much use of the seaway to date has been Chrysler Corp., which used it even before it was deepended to admit ocean-ships. “The chief advantage of the seaway for us is that it will open more service,” a Chrysler spokesman said. “Until this year, we have had no service to such places as the Red Sea, Alexandria, the Persian Gulf and South American ports.

(UPI) -A bank cashier and the postmaster of Terre Haute testified today about a safety deposit box, a savings account and registered mail > involving two of the eight defendants in the nation’s biggest excise tax evasion case, William E. Lewis, cashier of the First National Bank, testified that defendant James Tamer rented a box the day he arrived in Terre Haute in 1957 and kept it, making two visits to the box, until six days after an alleged syndicate gambling operation was raided by federal agents. Lewis also testified that E. M. Wyatt, another defendant, opened a savings account and made SIB,OOO in deposits over a period of weeks. Postmaster Frank Miklozek told the jury that registered mail addressed to Wyatt or “E. M. Wyatt & Co.” was delivered to the Manor House Restaurant above which the alleged gambling operation was conducted. Meanwhile, four prospective,witnesses for the government arrived 'to testify but found that through an error in dates on subpenas they were not due until later this month. They were identified as two bettors and two bookies who appeared at a grand jury investigation of the case in Indianapolis last summer. The alleged bookies, according to the government, were Ruby Lazarus, Miami, and Elliott Price, Brookline, Mass., both of whom were quoted by U. S. Attorney Don Tabbert last summer as having cited the Fifth Amendment in refusing to answer questions before the grand jurors. The alleged bettors were Walter Gray, Chicago construction firm executive, and Harry Engleman, Boston shoe manufacturer. A forme rrestaurant owner testified Wednesday that Wyatt rented the third floor of his establishment for a “sports service.” Joseph Traum, former owner of the Manor House Restaurant told a Federal Court jury that E. M. Wyatt, one of eight men accused of evading $300,000 in taxes on more than three million dollars in gambling earnings, paid SI,OOO rental for the last four months of 1957. The Western Union manager here, Paul M. McCombs, pointed out Wyatt as the man who applied to him for sports ticker service on Sept. 9, 1957. McCombs said he asked Wyatt if the ticker was to be used for gambling and “he said no.” Forrest Bauer, a General Telephone Co. employe, testified he installed eight telephones in the headquarters of the. alleged gambling syndicate on Sept. 10. Hotel men told of registrations of the other seven defendants. New Trial Denied For Bank Robber NEW CASTLE. Ind. (UPI) — Special Judge Gustav Hoelscher overruled a motion for a new trial brought by James E. Smith, 48, / Lapel, Wednesday.

SkBUSILM 1 • 1 Sunday Laoaom . Bible Material: Deuteronomy 4—IX. Devotional Bea4lag: Parim 106:1-7. A Nation Under God Lesson for July 5, 1959 •tqpHIS NATION, under God” 1 has been a classic phrase ever since Lincoln said it. The expression had no doubt been used before him. Indeed the reverse side of the United States seal, which can be seen on the back of any dollar bill, shows an unfinished
pyramid, right under an eye, which the designers meant to be the eye of God. • For the motto over the picture I is ANNUIT COEPTISf.This . being translated ’ menji “He has appr&ved the
things which have been begun.” But who is “He"? It can be none other than God. For without his approval it does nd good to brag about anybody rise’s. The Beds es the Batleas So from the very beginning, our nation on its official seal has ac- ! knowledged that is was begun and must continue under the eye of God. His approval is vital. We put “In God we trust” on our coins. We open Congress with prayer every day it meets. We administer solemn oaths to public officials. Even in the army, where you would perhaps not expect it, the Department of Defense sees to it that every man has the opportunity to worship God. At Fort Knox, for instance, there are not leas than 20 chapels provided by the army and used every day by Roman Catholics, Protestants and Jews. It is not a novelty, or a peculiar thing, for a nation to recognize God officially, and to keep God—a god of some kind—before the eyes of the people. Armies have had chaplains since back in the times of the Romans —not in the modern sense of course, but professional religious men who accompanied the troops. The Chinese emperors used to sacrifice annually to the God of Heaven. We all know anout the Japanese Shinto, a rengion all tied up with intense patriotism. In Abraham’s time and Ion; before that, the priest-kings of Ui used to sacrifice to the city's special deity, Nannar the moon-god Every nation has some God. Ever the wild Scythians, who bowed to no other god, would thrust a ban sword into the ground and offei sacrifice to the sword. Wbara W» Haig Oar Hearts Whatever a man hangs his heart on and depends on, said Martin Luther, that is his God. What a I man hangs his heart on, in reality, , may not be the God he officially acknowledges. “In God we trust,” says every nickel of our money. But do we trust God or our money ? What do we depend bn? ICBM’s, • those intercontinental ballistic . missiles that can destroy whole . cities at one shot ? IBM machines, those immense robots that can solve problems faster than any ' human being can? What is it that , can render us secure ? Space satel- , lites ? More education ? Democratic ’ government? A favorable trade , balance—keeping other nations always in debt to us? Capitalism? , These are all gods—somebody , hangs his heart on these, some or all of these, and depends on them. But they are not God. Tbs fled es Jem Christ 1 The Christian belief about God ■ Is summed up in Paul’s title for him in Romans 15:6: “The God I and Father of our Lord Jesus I Christ.” Any sort of alleged god who does not measure up to that, I is no true God. Any “god** who i bears no family resemblance te i Christ, any “god” Christ would ) have disowned, Is no God. This f proposition should set us thinking. One of the thoughts is this: A fav- ■ orite book of Jesus in the Old Test--1 amount, one he quotes often, was I Deuteronomy. Now the book of > Deuteronomy makes a great deal of the idea of a nation under God. t But close to the very beginning of • that book you will find the Ten Commandments. The true God is . the one who gives to man the law 5 by which he lives. No man and no , nation has any right to suppose ’ that either a nation or a man can claim the favor and protection of . God, and at the same time defy him by breaking his laws. The God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, because he is indeed the High God, says to every nation that professes to be “under” him: Do you mean UP i County Recorder At Association Meeting County recorder Mrs. Mabel » Striker is attending the quarterly i meeting of Indiana recorders association in Indianapolis today.

for helpers, or allowing none of his members a chance to take their just part in the worship and work of the church. He was thinking of members who sit idly by and let the ministers struggle along doing every thing, without as mu?h as an encouraging word or the offer of a helping hand. Fortunately such churches are few. Not many ministers are in the sad plight of being “the hired man” of the congregation; not often is he chagrined when he asks some members to asume some work, “That’s your job; what do we pay you for?” In most churches today there are enough consecrated workers to assist in every phase of the work.
