We don't know how you feel about it, but this night, August 25, 1948, there's an editor who worries about the future who worries that more faith and more energy ener-gy are not being placed in the problem of establishing peace in the world. There's an editor worried that Americans are being prepared, psychologically and militarily mil-itarily for war with Russia ; that our boys are to be drafted and trained to kill Russians ; that aid to Europe and the hungry people of the; world is being given reluctantly re-luctantly and with measured thoughtf ulness ; and that the United Nations is not catching the imagination of our leaders and is not getting their faith and works. There is concern here that Americans are believing again that peace can be purchased at the price of a thousand atom bombs, 50,000 war planes and 200,000 pilots. Can we afford to believe that the Russians can be frightened by our B-29s and our atom bombs, by our planes and our pilots ? Suppose the Russians refuse to be frightened. Then what? Are our so-called realists concerning con-cerning themselves over how much American blood must be shed in order to crush Russia and after we crush Russia, what then? We cannot guarantee the possibility of world cooperation. cooperat-ion. We cannot guarantee that an agreement with Russia can be reached, ever. The possibility of world cooperation cannot be proved it must be taken on faith and it must be achieved on the strength of that faith. The tragedy is, that those who believe that sincere good will can be had between Russia and the western democracies demo-cracies by an act of the human will, by trying, are beirl? laughed at. Meanwhile, those who are telling the world to travel once again down a familiar path of suspicion and retaliation, threat and nationalism, are being listened listen-ed to. You know and we know that suspicion begets suspicion suspic-ion ; that the drafting of three million American soldiers will result in the draft of four million Russian soldiers ; that Russia will match, in numbers at least, our air force, bomber for bomber ; and that eventually she'll match our atomic weapons. It isn't a very happy future. Basically, that future is a question of whether or not feood will has the power to change the world we live in and make for ourselves. Christians should believe that it can. Peace on earth depends on this faith, and without it we shall not be saved. But, you, ask, how can good will be applied ? How used as a weapon ? We say that so long as the Russian people themselves are friendly, emotional, puzzled, wondering about the Americans, hoping that war can be avoided as long as the Russians are like us then they will respond to good. will.. Let's make ourselves heard in Russia. Let's take some risks to get our mesage to the Russian people. Let's drop friendship packages millions of them with bars of soap, with candy, with matches and cameras and watches, with pictures of ourselves and our youngsters. Let's, at the risk of offending Stalin and Molotov, invite Russian youth thousands of them to attend our schools, to holiday in America at our expense. At the risk of offending Russian leadership, at the risk of being shot at, let's circularize the whole of Russia with our dream of peace and our guarantee of cooperation. cooperat-ion. American resources are tremendous. They are tremendous in fighting the kind of a battle which may lead to civilization's end; and our resources are equally tremendous in waging a battle of public relations of projecting our good will. Those who love America and wish our country to be strong and free and fulfil its destiny, must believe in the power of good will. Lin Yutang, a thoughtful contemporary philosopher, believes the same: "I am not worried lest America may not be able to assert a leadership of force and power; I am worried lest she may. I am concerned to see America assume a moral leadership, a leadership of humility, so. that the world may pay her glad homage and uphold her forever. Like the great river that nourishes life along its valley, she shall by the exuberance and richness of her life be a blessing upon the peoples of the earth. She shall stay above, and the world shall not feel her weight ; she shall walk in front and no one will wish her harm. For she shall lead in kindness and unselfisness and justice and by that secret of unused power bring a new era of brotherhood to mankind."

Hi, Folks, Are you a liar, a thief? don't answer, because I'm sure you'll say no, emphatically. Yet Mr. Ordinary Citizen steals far more than the hardened criminals, that has been proven And for what Mr. and Mrs- Ordinary Or-dinary Citizen tell in the way of untruths, and kid themselves that they are truthful persons it's worse than a scandal. It just goes to show how mentally; ill the average person is and to' what lengths they will go to excuse themselves. It's A Painful Fact Many ordinary citizens are' so dishonest they make professional profess-ional criminals look like amateurs. amat-eurs. Deep down, everyone has a touch of larceny in him it shows even among the most re- spectacle people. And it has been proven that amateur law breakers carry off more loot every year than all the nation's professionals. Ask any department depart-ment store manager. The customers cust-omers and clerks are so dishonest, dishon-est, the store has to charge far more than would be necessary if they could find honest help! and customers. It is a face, a' painful fact. i Someone is Kidding Himself j Just because you don't get I caught in the lie, or with the goods, is no reason to think you are not as much a liar or cheat as if you were. While wonung at a mental hospital, I was informed in-formed that certain patiftits were Cleptomaniacs that's a thief to the layman. I was also informed that others were pathological path-ological liars, and I was to put no dependency in what they did or said. After working there for sometime, I was shocked to find that many of the attendants and personnel were also cleptomaniacs clepto-maniacs and pathological liars. The little , things and big that wte carried pway from that mental hospital put professional profession-al criminals to shame. And who bears the brunt of this: the tax payers, the liars and thieves who have damaged minds and souls anS i wicked ccisc'ence to live with.
