More Portuguese Return To Angola

By PHIL NEWSOM UPI Foreign News Analyst LISBON, Portugal — In the panic which followed the butchery of European families in northern Angola during the “Night of the Long Knives’’ March 15-16. 1961, many white settlers decided to return home. Twenty-five hundred of them did so. But now. Portuguese officials say. the tide has been reversed and last year 4,000 resumed irn migration to Angola. Portugal’s largest and richest overseas province in Africa. Furthermore, these officials say, terrorism which once extended to 10 per cent of the territory has now been reduced to 2 per cent. Nation Is Bitter Portuguese bitterness over what it regards as United Nations interference in its internal affairs centers on three main points. —Demands for Angolan independence do not come from within the province, but rather are pressed from the outside. At most, the Portuguese say, the movement receives support only from a small segment of tribesmen in the north who are related to others across the river in the Congo. The revolt could be suppressed instantly, they* say, if it were not for the “privileged sanctuary” provided by the Congo republic to terrorists who cross back and forth. —The United Nations stand favoring self-determination for An gola violates the U. N. Charter which specifically forbids U. N. interference in a nation's internal affairs. Carried to a logical extreme, according to the Portuguese, the U.N. eventually could interfere in the smallest affairs Os any nation. —U. S. support for Afro-Asian demands for self-determination in Angola, which the Portuguese re-

Teaching Os Taxes Program To Schools Sterling M. Dietrich, district director of internal revenue, today announced that the internal revenue service is again offering to schools its free teaching taxes program. This program is designed to improve the students’ understanding of the responsibilities of citizenship, the role of the internal revenue service, and how to prepare and file tax returns. The material provided to the schools includes a teacher's manual, blow-ups of returns for elassroom use, a history of taxation in the United States, tax problems and illustrations, and workbooks for students. These materials will be shipped in sufficient time so, that they will be available for use soon after January 1. Dietrich stated that letters and other information about the 1964 program will be mailed to the principals of over 800 public, parochial and private schools in the near future. Last year 585 Indiana schools and over 70,000 students participated in this pro-, gram. Teachers, parents and students interested in receiving the benefits of this program and encouraged to make their desires known to their school principal. Any principal who does not receive an order blank by October 1 may request a form 1742 from the Indianapolis district office.

S. policy holding that Portuguese retention' of its dver seas territories was essential to African security and stability. , Source of Weapons The Portuguese contend that some weapons captured in the fighting came from Czechoslovakia and Italy and others from Irish forces formerly stationed with the U. N. in the Congo. It is a further source of irritation to the Portuguese to suggest that theirs is a colonial economy dependent on overseas possessions. To this they reply that they are

HAM IN HARNESS— H. G. Hurley of Echo Bay, Canada, poses with his pets, the only known trained hogs in the world. Hurley’s farm was recently visited by Clarence Bobilya and his son David, of north of Decatur, and Bobilya took the above picture there. It took Hurley three years to break the hogs to harness and train them to pull the surrey. The hogs, which can .also pull a riding plow and other farm equipment, have been featured in the widely syndicated Ripley s Believe it or Not column. The porkers weigh 1300 pounds and are named Rusty and Red.

spending more in Africa than they are taking out, and that the last six-year-plan for Angola ending in 1964 called for expenditure of $165 million, half of it coming from Angola itself and the other half from metropolitan Portugal and international institutions. The Portuguese say further that Portuguese law prohibits the taking of land from Africans .but rather requires new settlers to take land not yet occupied. Their work code, they say, is the best in Africa, pointing out especially that such new nations as Ghana, Guinea and Nigeria all have compulsOry work laws while Angola does not. Development in Angola, while slow, is progressing. It has an oil refinery and plans are in the works for a steel mill. Small industries also are developing. Geologists who have been permitted to explore are awed by its potential mineral wealth.

God in History Lesson for September 22, IM3 Bible Material: Genesis 37 through SO. Devetieaal Reading: Psalm 47. *TpHE story of Joseph is strik- * ingly modern. It is up-dated in every century. It is true, the actual events of this strange history— this success story to end all success stories — never repeat themselves, for no two lives are

just alike. Joseph rose not only to the chance of his lifetime, but to the big chance of all time. There never was another historic moment just like any moment in Joseph’s life, never another opportu-

nity like his. The thing that links Joseph with all of us is the way his life-history illustrates what every man’s life also pictures, namely what Christians call the “providence” of God. Evil is real The Christian doctrine of Providence, which is believed in every church in Christendom, is a name for thb belief that God is in constant touch with this world, and that He so controls and guides the affairs of not only this planet but of the universe so that His purposes do come to pass. The universe is vast and complicated beyond our understanding; but God is in charge. That is the heart of what “providence” means. It is more than foresight. It is more then “taking care of His own.” It Is more than God’s occasionally reaching a hand into the machinery of the world to give it a little shove. The thing that makes this not the easiest Christian doctrine to believe is that there is so much in the world which, so far a's we can see, doesn’t fit in with God < at all. There is a lot of anti-God loose on earth. How can we square that with the idea that God is in control? One way of solving the difficulty is to deny that there is any evil. This wbn’t wash . . . Evil of one kind or another, and specially sin, Is too tall and terrible to be laughed off or ignored. Talk about God being hard to be*

lieve in! It is less of a strain, by far, to believe in a God more powerful than evil, than to believe that evil is no more than a kind of illusion, something done with mirrors so to speak. An old. couplet written for children says, “The world is so full of a number * of things, I’m sure we should all be as happy as kings.” That’s not the doctrine of providence. This world is full of a number of things that make anybody with a heart most unhappy. We have to believe in God through our tears, not pretend there’s nothing to cry about. Freedom Is real Some people push the doctrine of Providence too hard. They are afraid that if God allows the tiniest bit of freedom to mankind, something is bound to go haywire sooner or later, and God will find things have gone out of control. They make the history of mankind look like a puppet-show with God working the strings. This isn’t the doctrine or the truth about Providence; it’s a kind of caricature of it, something first cousin to fatalism. The story of Joseph is an illustration of what we are driving at. Joseph’s brothers knew what they were doing when they plotted against their brother. They didn’t have to do what they did. They were not puppets, they were free men. This isn’t saying they could have done good just as easily as they could have done wicked acts. It came a lot easier to do evil, but they didn’t have to. Joseph never pretended they couldn’t help it! And neither did they. God the weaver God may be compared to a master weaver who stands at the i loom of time and weaves the fabric of history. Not all the threads in the loom are beautiful. There is the black thread of ignorance and the crooked thread of pain and the blood-red strand of sin. The pattern might be more beautiful if it were not for the tangled ugly threads of perverted human wills. But God does not throw anything away. He makes use of the evU, He keeps the freedom within bounds. Some will ask, How does God do this? If we knew, we would know as miyih as God knows,—and this is beyond us forever. But that God does this, every believing heart is assured. Here our own story blends with that of Joseph and all the saints. Who cannot tell his own story of how God’s hand has been felt in his own life? What Christian has not been led to say, after some painful experience, God knew

SUNSHINE AND SHADOW Rev. James R. Meadows Keeping inconsolably beside a grave can never give back love’s Banished treasure, nor can any blessing come out of such sadness. Sorrow makes deep scars it writes its record ineffaceable on the heart which suffers. We really never get over our great griefs; we are never altogether the same after we have passed through them as we were before. Yet there is humanizing and fertilizing influence in sorrow which has been rightly accepted and cheerfully borne. Indeed they are poor who have never suffered, and have none of sorrow’s marks upon them. The joy set before us should shine upon our grief as the sun shines through the clouds, glorifying them. God has so ordered, that in pressing on in duty we shall find the truest, richest comfort for ourselves. Sitting down to brood over our sorrows, the darkness deepens about us and creeps into our heart, and our strength changes to weakness. But, if we turn away from the gloom, and take up the tasks and duties to which God calls us, the light will come again and we shall grow stronger. It is a dangerous thing for any man to begin to begrudge God anything in return for blessings received from Him when He is so

generous in bestowing them. God gave the best He had to bring salvation to all men. He prepared happiness on earth, and peace and fellowship for all men, and finally eternal life and glory in heaven for all. The only thing He now asks of us is that we serve Him, that we are willing to share with others His blessings, that we show some of that spirit that manifested itself in Christ when here on earth and give ourselves and our names to His service. Is this an unreasonable demand on His part? Is He asking of us too much? And shall we turn away from Him as the rich young man did, who is mentioned in the Gospel?
