UN Soldiers Grim Al Beatings LEOPOLDVILLE, The Congo 'UPD — Grim-faced United Nations soldiers stood guard behind barbed wire at Ndjili Airport today. furious over the beatings given three of their colleagues Thursday by Congolese troops and determined to take no more. A U.N. spokesman said the sentries — all Moroccan —were authorized ’ to open keep the runways clear and the grounds free of trespassers. The tenser mood which the U.N. peace operation assumed almost overnight was signaled by Under Secretary Dr. Ralph Bunche in a curt radio —statement —brandingany further harassment of his personnel as "unacceptable.” The immediate source of his anger was a raid on the airport by an unruly Congolese detachment which yanked Canadian signal corps men from a waiting plane, made them lie on the ground and pummeled them with boots and rifle butts. But there have been numerous such raids and arrests on U.N. personnel in the past few days — all carried out by Congolese in a supposed search for “Belgian spies.” Such actions, Bunche declared, were "useless and senseless provocations.” He sharply reminded the Congolese responsible for the latest raid that the armed Canadians, if they had not preferred patience, "could very well have solved the problem in their own way.” Both Canadian Prime Minister John Diefenbaker and UN. Secetary General Dag Hammarskjold rushed protests on the new incij dent to Congolese Premier Patrice Lumumba. Diefenbaker called the attack "unwarranted and unjustifiable.’ The text Os Hammarskjold's note was not immediately made public. The harassing actions were diI rectly attributable to Lumumba s I break with Hammarskjold over I the latter’s refusal to use the I U.N. force to subdue secessionist : Katanga Province. The 34-year-old premier has challenged the good faith of the UN. chief, accusing him of favoring Belgian interests.

key ia. But the ' Bible does not I mention them because they had not yet been invented. The Bible does warn us many times about ' the use of wine and the equivalent of beer. Most of the ref-
erences to “strong drink” could be translated “beer” without seriously changing the meaning. Death The prophet Isaiah, looking about him in his own city of Jerusalem, saw a drinking people, men and women for whom social drinking was a well-established, popular , , habit. But he did not like what he saw. Furthermore, since an authentic prophet is one who sees with God’s eyes, we can be sure, if we take the Bible seriously, that God did not like it either. Does God like ft any better In . America? In 1958, the last year for which figures are available, the ) sales of liquor stores were >4.439,- ■ 000,000. This is just about double .' what the public spent in shoe stores in the same year. Liquor advertising accounts for some of thia to be sure. But liquor ’ ads—very attractive they are, too —always show the liquor-drinker before the drinks, never after. They never show the murders committed under the influence of alcohol, they do not show the wrecks caused by . drinking (not necessarily drunk) . drivers. The ads show a man —be- . fore; they do not show him after . his drinks have made him less than a man. “The grave has opened its mouth,” Isaiah said, referring to his hard-drinking nation. The grave opens its mouth today . . . not to mention the living dm th of alcoholism. A nation that spends twice as - much in liquor stores as in shoe , stores has a very odd standard of values, to say the least. The drinker, even the modest drinker, opens the door to becoming a man (or woman) who cannot think straight. If you were to be operated on, would you like to think the surgeon had just taken a little - rum to warm himself up? Would you willingly fly in a plane if you knew the pilot kept himself pretty well “juned up” between flights? If you were a prisoner, would you like to be sentenced by a judge 1 who had several drinks under his t robe? You would not. But if we don’t want important things done for us by people even a tiny bit 1 tipsy-, we should not want people ; thinking for us with their brains ! even a little fuzzed with alcohol. The farther a man goes with a drinking habit, the bigger and bigger the bottle grows, bigger in importance, that is. Isaiah knew that a drinking nation calls “evil good, and good evIL" Tbo Rottou Root The people, the liquor-loving - people, that swarmed in Isaiah’s city, he compares to a plant of • which the root is rotten and the blossom is dust. They have lost their stamina, they will fan to their enemies like dry grass before » a flame! (This came true, we must remember). One of the most frightening features of America is the attitude of many leaders toward ■ liquor. Charles A. Wells, in “Between the Lines” for Jan. 15, 1959, writes: “The favored treatment liquor gets in the U. 8. Armed Services, and in U. 8. diplomacy, is notorious ... Liquor gets priority treatment ... The Kremlin is cracking down on liquor in Russia with severity, and preaching sobriety and temperance—as is Red China. Are not the despoilers in the American defense program guilty of sabotage as much as if they mined a bridge or put a timebomb in a plane ? Narcotics squads knock themselves out going after dope-users and peddlers. Why is ft nobody modi bothers with the enormously larger number of drug addicts who drug themselves with alcohol? Could ft be tjecanae too many “Important People” ara ths ahmaktadsf dnsKitathmt

COURAGE NEEDED I TODAY "lev. James R. Meadows We need courage today as we I look out upon a chaotic world—a’ dangerous world. The person who lives by sight instead of faith has as his constant companion uncertainty, gnawing fear, and ever increasing sense of futility. We need to examine afresh the words of the Psalmist, “Trust in the Lord with all thine heart, and lean not unto thine own understanding. In all thy ways acknowledge Him. and He shall direct thy paths.” Faith is needed when visibility is poor, for blind flying. L«t us rest in God and trust Him. From the midst of the evil days in which Christ lived, He spoke these words, “Let not your heart be troubled.” The fulfillment of this admonition is accomplished only by believing His word and acting on it. Only then comes the flow of His peace over troubled mind and spirit. If there was ever a time when we should be regular in attendance 1
