BIBLE THOUGHT OF THE WEEK "'When You, Meet Him Iccognizc Him" "I;'or God sent not His Son into the world to con- denm the world, but that the world through Him might be saved." ST. JOHN 3:17 Contributed by Rev. R. P. I,ei(ihner. Foursquare Gospel Chureli BOY SCOUT WEEK Boy Scout Week, celebrated from February 8 to 14, is an occasion when the American people should really stop, look and listen. They should stop to realize just what a great work is being done bv the Boy Scouts of America in building bet- ter character:' in our rising generation. They should look at the results already obtained and they should listen to the plea for greater cooperation and support of this out- standing youth movement. There is always a need for men who have the interests of American youth at heart to serve as leaders--to help prepare the boys of today to be good citizens of t0morrm;. The Boy Scouls of America is an ideal channel ,thrbugh which to inculcate in many of out' young people the prin- by day or con NORMAN .!I ANDER 215 Harwtrd,  Ph., / HOM00 Representative it. LOAN ,.

' . ' • - During six decades of research he obtained more than 1200 patents. Among his outstanding achievements were the motion picture machine--the "kintescopie cmnera and the phonograph. His wizardy helped bring the Bell tele- phone ito practical usc and greatly improved the tele- graph. , ' '  • Of even greater importance, however, was his creation r of the incandescent lamp in 1879. In the following 10 years ' he devoted his time to the discovery of methods for the generation and distribution of electric energy. The great electric util!ties ofthe nation which serve our homes, farms r < 1 1 and facto ies exist today chief y because of his invent've Once more the farmer is being asked to break all food production records. To plow more acres, feed more liv'estock and harvest more crops than ever before. He is being asked to do this so that America may .continue to feed and clothe the needy throughout the world, as well as our own folks at home. To carry out this job the farmer must have tools of production. Most: of those he owns have taken a terrific beating. They can't be tied together much longer with rusty fence wire. In the teeth of this situation, the farmer ran intO a strike in the steel: industry--a strike which hit at the heart of food production. When the steel plants shut down, manufac- turers of farm machinery and equipment, farm trucks and traitors cannot get steel for their products, This year the farmer won't receive as many o5 the replacements he desperately needs, He'll fight ahead with his old, broken machinery try- ing to crack another food production record, but the cards are stacked against him. All this means more keadaches for the far- mer- loss of vital food production, and a bad dent in his pocketbook. :Facts Too Frequently Omitted The steel strike was called by the United Steelworkers of America -- CIO, which insists on a wage increase totaling $166,000,000.. he U, S, Steel Corporation has offered; a wage rise which if applied throughout the industry would amount to $135,000,000. Steel,worlcers are already among the highest paid wage-earners in America. Before the strike their average earnings were approximately $1.1.6 an hour, $9.26 a day and $46.32 a week -- on a forty-hour week. The U. S. Steel offer would have given them about $1..31 an hour, $10.46 a day and g5 ') : a week. But they refused it, and accused the steel industry of conspiring to ruin the mlion with an offeredwage increase of $25 a month, the highest increase in the industry's history. The strike is a direct violation of the contract between the union .and the steel companies. The union  wanted a long-term contract and got it. The union agreed not to strike during the life of the contract. Yet, the union struck on January 21. Fighting for a Way of Life Farmers have a big stake in continuous steel production. They have an opportunity to say What they think about uimhecked labor monop- olies which bring to a stop the nation's recovery efforts, .through excessive wage demands which could only add to inflation and cause soaring prices. Not until enough of them protest unfair, dicta- torial actions and urge proper safeguards against arrogant, heedless union leadership and one-. sided labor:laws will the country get back to sane, profitable production where everyone works to- gether toward a better standard of living.

The work in the electrical field which he inaugurated and so ably advanced has been carried on by others who are constantly finding better and more inexpensive means of transmitting electric energy for heat, power and light. This constant improvement is one of the big reasons why the cost of electricity has gone down so steadily over the years. Our electrical dollar,is worth twice what it was just 20 years ago. Of Thomas Edison it must be said that few men in history have contributed so much to the advancement of science and the improvement of our living staridards. Be- cause of his genius the world is a better ancl, literally, a brighter place in which to live. ABRAHAM LINCOLN Although more than four score years have passed since that fateful night in April, 1865, when an assassin's bullet cut short the earthly career of Abraham Lincoln, his place in the hearts and minds of his countrymen as one of the nation's great heroes was never more secure. This tall, gaunt man with the deep-set, brooding eyes, who was born in a humble log cabin and rose to the highest office in the land, was no ordinary individual. Yet few per-. sons in Americanhistory have so embodied the noble qual- ities of the common man as did he. His genial wit and wisdom, his simplicity and earthi- ness, his patience and humility his love of country andhu, manitythese were the things that have so deeply endeared llim to the people of America. A cold ap-praisal of the historical records reveals that Lincoln possessed no magic powers, and that at imes he was bewildered, indecisive and blundering. Sometimes his moods probed the depths of depression, at others, they-scal- ed the heights of inspiration. But through it all--through the ebb and. flow of his spirits, his political and family fortuneshis true great- ness gradually emerged until it reached full expression and marked him as an outstanding figure of the ages. In observing his 137th birthday anniversary on Febru- ary 12, the American people honor him as the preserver of the Union, as the friend of all humanity. PEACE PRODUCTION In the early and dismal days of our participation in World War II, when victory seemed remote, we were told that we would, win eventually because of our vast produc- tivc capacity. Well, the planes, guns, tanks and ships that finally rolled ff the assembly lines enabled our forces to turn tlae tide and win the victory. But having von the war largely through fabulous pro- duction why is it that we now believe we can win the peace by shutting down our factories ? Who believes that? Who wants the factories shut down? "Nobody," says everybody. Then why are so mmay vital factories shut down ? Because both labor and manage- ment would rather see them closed than to yield ufficiently to keep them open. And bec'ause the public is too indiffer- ent to rise up and insist that they be kept open. America's industrial plants can turn raft all the goods we need and help supply the world, We have the mare power; we have the "know how." But.unless we use what we have, unless we get our factories humming and kee them hummingwe are setting the stage for inflation affd depression. America, wake up! The gravest peacetime crisis con. fronts you. Public opinion must force a quick and just settlement of strikes threatening the national welfare. And it must do it now. It's now or never! 1946 Egg Total Won't Hit 1945 Record Volume Farms egg production in 1946 is expected to be below the near record 1945 output Of about 56 billipn .eggs, according to USDA Bureau of Economic,% advises County Agent Okerstrom. The number of layerson lmnd on Jala- uary 1946 will be somewhat lrg- er than in January 1945, but with lower egg prices in 1946" heavier culling of flocks is epected. Un- der the Steagall Anendnaent pricks for eggs, chickens (except broilers) and turkeys must be sup- ported at not less than ninety per cent of parity during 1946-27. Although the supply Of poultry meat for co.nsumer purchases will be about the same as in 1945 it is expected that the demand will be less. With no indication of a decrease in feed price s the egg- fee ratio wili be much, less deMr- able in 1946. " Cash rceipts fronii'poultry' pro- ducts are likely to declin,"mater - icily from the all-time high of 1945. Over-all production will likely be slightly smaller, but low- er prlces especially for pggs, il expected to account for most ] the decrease in cash income.
