Enrollment Urged
Stephens encourages all per
sons in responsible positions in the
lumber industry, bus drivers and
others who may be connected
with hazardous occupations where
the training may be useful to en
roll In one of the classes.

would require all foremen and
supervisors to have satisfactorily
Kassed first aid examinations. The
ill is similar to that now in effect

Episcopal Church.
There, he bowed his head and
heard the Rev. C. Leslie Glen
pray for him, for the Congress,
for social justice, for the family
of nations and for "those we
love."
St. John's Is the same church

No Easy Compromise
I While the president nowhere
named Russia outright in his
scathing attack on Communism,
his words apparently ended any
possibility of quick and easy com-

I now oppose us will abandon their
delusions and join with the free

United states ana otner non-uom-munist
nations, he declared, have
been balked in their work for
"a just and lasting peace" by a
regime with contrary alms and
a totally different concept of
life."
"That regime adheres to a
false philosophy which purports
to offer freedom, security and
greater opportunity to mankind,"
he asserted. "Misled by this phil
osophy, many peoples have sacri
ficed their liberty only to learn
to their sorrow that deceit and
mockery, poverty and tyranny.
are their reward.
'That false philosophy is
