EDWARDS One day the Psalmist wrote: "I will lift up mine eyes unto the hills from whence cometh my help.". This does not indi cate' a superstitious reverence for high places. Rather Da vid's thought is that in our need, we must look beyond the mounfains to the God who made them and sustains them. There is something inspiring about mountains. One can never be the same when once he has looked upon such mighty works of creation as Pikes Peak, Shasta, Mt. Hood and Rainier, especially if you have climbed them. It is hard to look at them and be an atheist, or an agnostic. The honest man must concede that nothing short of omnipotent power can account for them. The mountains invite us to look up. Bunyan's "Man with Muckrake" could look no way but down. So he lost his crown. H. H. Hadley of the Bowery mission says, "The night I was converted I went out and looked up at the stars. I had not seen them for many years." The drunkard never looks up. There are so many things in this world to keep us looking down, how grateful we are for. something that makes us look up. A great writer said we should read a fina poem, look at a great painting, hear a great oratory every day, that is one way of looking up. Buckrake" could look no way about Jerusalem so the Lord is round about his people." Look up, and not down. Amen. Reds Boost Toll Of German Planes MOSCOW, June 21 (API Land warfare on the soviet front lapsed into local scouting opera tions and sporadic artillery bom bardments today Just one day short of the second anniversary ol Germany's attack on Russia. A tense red' army awaited the summer offensive many observ ers believed Hitler must launch soon if he hopes to try to knock Russia from the war before the allies attack in the west, but the continuation of day and night bombings was the only indica tion that a large-scale smash might be expected soon. The Russians announced last night that 276 German planes had been knocked down during last week, boosting enemy air craft losses to 3,595 in seven weeks. The Russians said their losses during the week were 94. A German transport was sunk and a tanker and two transports were set afire in the Barents sea during an attack by Russian bombers, torpedo carriers and torpedo planes, the Russians said today.

GENERAL REPAIRS TOW CAR SERVICE 323 N. Main St. Phone 352 Dewey Favors Hog Killing to Divert Needed Grain Feed COLUMBUS, O., Juno 21. (AP) Gov. Thomas E. Dewey of New York asserted today he fa vored killing western hogs If that would provide greater grain feed for eastern dairy cattle and poul try. His remark came In a discus sion with two western governors at the opening session of the an nual governors' conference, and followed an assertion by Dewey that unless more grain became available in the east milk ration ing might become necessary by October. Gov, Henry F. Schrcicher of In diana told Dewey his state, had mote hogs than ever before and the grain was necessary to feed them. "Would the New York governor advise us to kill our pigs?" the Indian asked. Dewey, springing to his feet, replied: "I would advocate the immedi ate execution of your pigs which are competing with my cows for corn." And then, with a smile, he added: "But I would advocate eating them and not plowing them un der." Dewey said the need for grain had become so acute that New Yorkers were turning to Canadian market. Feeding corn to hogs and beef cattle, he said, was "wasteful" because milk cows and hens produce "far more food per pound of feed than the meat producing animals." Gov. Robert Kerr of Oklahoma, referring to Dewey's remark that Canadian markets were receiving some attention, asserted: "If the northeast gets another source of grain, the midwest will arrange to change its industrial buying habits." Gov. Leverett Saltnnstall ot Massachusetts asked Dewey if he expected any substantial improve ment in the eastern food situa tion. "Not until there is a total re vision of our economic concepts," Dewey replied. "I believe you and I will . face a pretty serious milk situation this fall." The conference opened on n keynote of sovereignty ot the in dividual states. George D. Norris Dies in Roseburg George Daniel Nonis, 515J Rast Ave., Roseburg, died Satur day at his home.

C, June 16 (API The Spartunburg Herald said today the South Car olina Democratic executive com mittee had unanimously refused a request of the national demo cratic campaign for funds. Disagreement of the state com mittee with the national policies of the party was the basis for re fusal to contribute to the 1944 party war chest, the Herald said. The newspaper, saying it was quoting slate committeemen but not naming them, said the chief reason for the reported dissen sion was the resentment of the South Carolina group at what it called apparent efforts of the na tional committee "to woo the No gro vote at the expense of south ern feelings." The committeemen, the Herald said, at a meeting in Columbia two weeks ago, instructed State Chairman Winchester Smith of Uc-40e r . , . J Shows! ... ocjc:&m-1 (Inc. tax) r v"i Wtt7 9:15 p. m.
