Obedience to God's (Command Gives
Joy to World-in Old Man's Dream
By DON WHITEHEAD
WASHINGTON OR In the year 2000 A.D., an old man sat In
the warm sunshine and thli it the itory he told to the boy who lay
in the gran beside him: -
The year 1955, my son, will al
wavt be celebrated with rejoicing
at The Year ol The Great Com
mand." It teemi strange to you, per
haps, that the world once lived in
bloodihed and suffering and fear,
but your history books tell you I
am speaking truth.
- Once the nations of the world
and their people stumbled along
fearful of each other and the fut
ure. The scales of fear can blind
men's souls to obvious patht of
truth.
And then it happened Just
when angry, frightened natlont
were preparing to destroy them
selves by atomic warfare.
The Miracle came as bells were
tolling In the New Year. Sud
denly there was a hush. Then a
bolt of lightning flashed and a
golden glow lighted the Heavens.
And His voice said: "I command
you do unto others as ye would
that others do unto you!"
ales of Faar Vanish
In every land and In every
language, people saw and heard
thia miracle. And the scales of
fear fell away. They knew in
their hearts that the great mass
of men of every race and color
and creed was seeking the same
goal of human dignity, freedom,
and happiness. And they saw
iple honest v and
d the solution to
troubles.
Oh, it was a great year, I tell
you. Changes came so fast we
could hardly grasp their mean
ing. A few weeks after the Miracle,
a Russian plane landed at the
Washington airport and Josef
Stalin stepped out.
The news threw the world In
to an uproar, and lights burned
in chancellories around the
world.
The president rushed down to
meet Stalin and take him to the
White House at his guest Thous
ands of people milled in the
streets day and night to get a
glimpse of the visitor and to
learn why he was there.
A few days later the White
House Issued the famous Joint
statement which laid the basis
for our world constitution and
meant peace for all time. They
agreed to work for the union of
nations as we now know it, in
which each nation submits to the
will of the majority.
The American-Russian bloc led
the way at the world conference
of nations in Paris. Agreement
on all major Issues came fast

Bellingham Weeds Out
Objectionable Comics
BELLINGHAM, Wash.. Aug.
31. Fifty four of 254 sur
veyed comic books got the
"thumbs down" treatment from
Bellingham's city censor board
over the weekend.
The board, at the request of
Mayor Don Satterlee, investigat
ed the score of comic books sold
on public newsstands, and used a
special grading system on each
one during the past two months.
When a publication received
too many falling marks under
the ten standards set up by the
board, It was rejected as unfit
for the children of the city.
The mayor announced that lo
cal dlttributors had offered their
cooperations in banning the re
jected books from sale. Most
fatalities among the comics came
under the "crime" classification
the rejects featuring blood, mur
der, torture, etc.
.Several syndicated comics also
were rejected, one point scoring
against them being the scantiness 1

They found that hate and selfish

The old man stirred and smil
