e Ih r J By At Geneva the oilier day, the United States offered a proposal to cut the world s armaments al most two-thirds within six years and to replace national armies with a United Nations peace force in about a decade. The American plan was present ed to the 17-nation disarmament conference as a draft treaty "lor general and complete disarma- " . i- - f..l ..,,M " In it meal III M ycatci-ai i the U.S. took a considerable poli tical risk by agreeing to accept Russia's word on the amount of arms and troops the Soviet would have in service at the start of dis armament. American officials said the draft was an elaboration of the disarma ment program the United States offered to the United Nations last September 25. Question: Will complete world disarma ment ever come about? Tjit'a nut It thia WAV!

From Accra, capital of the Afri can Republic of Ghana: President Kwame Nkrumah has fired Industries Minister Krobo Edusel, who recently came under fire when his wife purchased a gold - plated bed in London for which she paid $8,400.

Sor.t April 21, 1962 EASTER PRACTICES By Charles V. Stanton One of the most widely observed of our holidays is TTaefoi Here in the United States ing the religious beliefs upon which our Nation was found ed. , Our churches are crowded to capacity by worshippers, some of whom are not regular communicants but who seek on this particular holiday to demonstrate their spiritual beliefs. According to the World Book Encyclopedia: In most Christian churches. Easier marks the end of tf, forty-day observance of Lent. The Catholic Church and some Protestant churches begin to prepare for Easter on Ash Wed nesday. From that day until the end of Lent, fasting Is pre scribed, special devotions are held, and many entertainments and amusements are given up. Holy Week (the seven days be ' fore Easter) Is a time of deep religious feeling and worship. The Protestant churches commonly observe Easter with special services, music, and flowers. Many of the churches hold a special baptismal service. A Mass on Easter Sunday closes the Lenten season In the Catholic Church and In some of the Episcopal, or Anglican churches. The Jewish Passover comes at about the same time as the Christian Easier. II, too. Is a time of rejoicing. II is celebrated with feasts, stories, folksongs, and games. Significant Event The above quotation indicates the very deep emotion with which the celebration of Easter is surrounded. To the believer there is no day more sacred, more significant, than Easter. All men are concerned with The Christian bases his belief upon the resurrection. Consequently he finds in the ob servance of this day a great and confession of his faith, a for the Divine plan. The celebration of Easter, today, grows out of pagan The coming of spring, signaling a new birth of life, was accompanied in early times Early-day Christians could tices. In their new-found religion, however, was the prom ise of a resurrection to a life for great fervor. For the pagan rites they substituted spiritual practices. But many quaint and colorful customs have been built around Easter. Some of the were carried over into religious Celebration Described In recent years the holiday aspects. We find much emphasis placed on sales of cloth ing, iiowers, greeting cards. One of the manufacturers Craft Publishers, recently sent on . some Easter celebrations : Folk dances, torchlight parades, bonfires and the exchange of gifts are ust few of the many ways in which people of vari ous lands herald Christ's resurrection and the coming of spring. In remote parts of Russia, the week after Easier, peasants will celebrate the festival of Krasnaya Gorki the bright little hill. A circle dance around a woman who holds a round loaf and a red egg each an emblem of the returning sun Is the cen tral rite. . . . : . t Dutch children parade through the streets on Easier Eve with bright Chinese lanterns on top of slicks. Liter they meet In the mallear place for dancing. In same Italian villages, the Easter cradle is blessed with traditional rites. Then It Is used to light a huge fire of slicks In front of the church. Good fortune Is assured those who lake a biasing stick home to light their household fires. Our seemingly modern custom' of donning new clothes for Easter, actually has ancient roots. It Is the result of age-old desire to "spruce up" at a time when all nature Is blooming with new life. An ancient Chinese custom, for example, called for the wear ing of new epparel In the spring. Superstition declared "mis fortune to those not wearing some new Item of adornment to symbolise the message of new life." The Roman Emperor Constantino Introduced the custom to his royal court in the fourth century when, te- honor the Feast of the Resurrection, he decreed elaborate ceremonies at which his entire court appeared In new robes. The word Easter comes from "Eostra," an ancient pagan goddess of spring who supposedly liked to delight children by changing her pet bird Into a rabbit. This led to our present "Easter bunny" and his association with Easter eggs. In Medieval England, egg throwing was a church custom. On Easter Sunday the choir tossed eggs back and forth while sing ing hymns.

DEAR ABBY Abigail Van Buren A Real DEAR ABBY: My boy friend told me he loved me and wanted to marry me. He said his wife was older than he was and he never loved her. He moved to Dallas and paid my way there so I could be near him while he waited for his divorce. That was a year ago. Now I find out that two other women be side myself followed him there. One is a brunette about 24. And the other is a gray-headed wom an In her fifties who even divorced her husband and brought her grown daughter along! All this time he has been feeding us all the same line. His wife is not older than he is. She's a nice-looking blonde woman. Should I tell the other women he has made fools of us? (I feel kind of sorry for the old one). I bate to hurt his wife by telling her, but I think she ought to know what a rat she married. I am going back home, but why should that liar get away with anything? FOOLED DEAR FOOLED: Tell the others. They'll get over the disappoint ment wk-tn they learn they've been part of a harem. And his wife should know, too. He's had his three strikes. DEAR ABBY: I swear my wife has sleeping sickness. We both work to help pay off our house. She gets off work before 1 do (half an hour) and falls asleep waiting for me. At supper time she is always the first one through, and she oft en lays her head on the table and falls asleep while waiting for me and the children to finish. When I finish, I clear the table, put the children to bed, and then I wake her up (at the table) so she can Medical Research New Hopes For Men And Infants By THE ASSOCIATED PRESS Medical research reports of fered new hopes today for male heart attack victims and babies born with inoperable heart condi tions. Dr. Jeremiah Stamler and as sociates of Chicago told a sympo sium on coronary heart disease in Philadelphia Wednesday that female sex hormones apparently can give many men extra years of life after a heart attack. At the same time, in St. Louis, four Stanford Uni"ersity surgeons rcDorted a giant step forward to ward heart surgery outside the hodv. which they said they De lieved might help many of the 15,000 babies born annually in the United States with inoperable heart conditions. Stamler told the Hahnemann Medical College aymposium that he used a preparation of natural, mixed female hormones, or estro gens, in a five-year study among 275 middle-aged men. He said that among men who suffered a single, uncomplicated heart attack, only seven per cent taking the hormone died within five years, compared with 17 per cent not treated. Statistically, he said, this represented a reduction Interior Department Endorses Bill To Sell Mining Claim Land WASHINGTON (AP) An Inter-i Involved is land on which no lor Department spokesman en- minerals have been found.

She sleeps all night and wakes up at 7:00 A.M. The next day it's the same story over again. When we go anywhere, she falls asleep in her chair. Her mother and father both have sugar diabetes and take insulin daily. Could this have any thing to do with it? My wife re fuses to go to a doctor. I am wor ried. WORRIED DEAR WORRIED: Your wife should see a doctor at once for a thorough check-up. Insist on it, and don't take "no" for an answer. DEAR ABBY: My heart doesn't yearn for wall-to-wall carpeting and fancy clothes, but oh, Abby, how I would love to have my hus band bring home some foolish little gift on some unspecial day.

In St. Louis, the Stanford sur geons said they had removed dogs' hearts for as long as two hours, then replaced them with out apparent harm to the animals. "So far the experiments have been successfully carried out on four dogs, which are still alive from five to nine months after the operations," the surgeons told the annual meeting of the Amer ican Thoracic Society. The report, presented by Dr. Ed ward J. Hurley, said the tech nique may be the first step toward operations in which a patient's heart is cut out of his body to correct serious heart defects. Stamler, director of the Chicago Board of Health's heart disease control, said female hormone was used because women seem to have an inbuilt resistance to co ronaries, at least until after meno pause when their production of fe male hormone declines. He !aid the hormone (trade name Premarin) produced fem inizing effects in the men, such as hreast enlargement, and , made some of them impotent but it did ndt' harm their health. ,g face cviction from sucn iand bccallse the fedc-al Bureau of Land Management is seeking to elimmate c,aims wnich have pr0. dllccd nQ min(,ra,s Carver said the Interior Depart ment believes the bill "is a con siderate and thoughtful approach to the solution of a complex and lnorny problem The sponsor of the bill.

Lenten Devotions Scripture: John 19:1-42 The prelude to Jesus' death was a man of power under the lash of fear, priests driven by hate, a mob indifferent and unthinking, and a Prisoner poised and in control. In the end, Pilate's fear of the mob and the threat of false charg es to his own career was greater than his sense of justice. Once he started to run he could not stop. The chief priests' fear and hatred of the Holy One let them manipu late a mob and use blackmail to gain the law's approval for their murderous intentions. The little men, some of whom must have shouted Hosannas and thrown palm leaves but five days before, fol lowed their leaders, and followed the excitement . . . and helped crucify the Kingly One. Even the Prisoner's friends were frightened and scattered. Only He. the King, the Crucified One, the Perfect Son, the Thirsty One, moved surely in sheer good ness through these hours. And now He is dead. The Pierced One lies cold and still in the fresh cave, smothered in spic es which are the last fragrance of the hopes and joys of so many. Now dead. It is the Saturday of Stillness. I, too, live with my thoughts this day. 1 remember my fear and my cowardice. I remember, my resent ments. I remember my indiffer ence and my thoughtlessness. And I know that I am a part of the scene. There is a calmness to these moments, like 'he calmness that comes when the wind is about to change direction, and blow fresh and new. And in the stillness, I think. The Rev. John E. Adams First Presbytericn Church Roseburg, Oregon U. S.

Business News FHA Insurance Up Sharply During 1961, Report Says The Portland insuring office of,"". " exPecls lo ,eave ay - the Federal Housing Administra tion said today that home and project mortages insured during 1961 represented a sharp increase over volume reported in the year previous. Oscar Pedersen. director, said the office insured 4,633 mortgages on one to four-family units, repre senting a total of $55,037,800. This compared with 3.840 mortgages rep resenting $44,833,150 insured by the office in 1960. Included in projects now under construction and insured by the Portland office is a home for the elderly at Canyonville. Average mortgage on the one to four-family units insured by the Federal Housing Administration in 1961 was nearly $12,500 as com pared to $11,129 in 1960. As of March 31, 1961, the Port land office had insured 766 home; mortgages totaling $8,985,150. This; is compared to 1,191 home mort-i gages insured in the first quarter of 1962 totaling $14,032,100, the di rector said.

At the present time there are eight projects under construction, repre senting an amount of $5,245,200, he added.
