That is a clergyman's an swer to the question which the United Press put to six prominent Americans from various walks of life "What troubles you most as ;you look at America today?" The clergyman is the Rev. Dr. Eugene Caron Blake, stated clerk of the Presbyter ian Church, U.S.A., recently retired president of the Na tional Council of Churches. Blake is a big, bull-shoul dered man whose hair is get ting very sparse on top. He j does not wear his piety on his sleeve. . Interviewing him, in the downtown Philadelphia of fice from which he adminis ters the affairs of his two mil 1 i o n-member denomination, you could easily take him for jl corporation executive rather than a distinguished preacher. Emotionalism a Problem His answers, like the man himself, did not appear at first glance to be distinctively "religious." But hear him out. "I know," he said, "that you expected me to say that I'm concerned about the state of morality in America, or the depth of our religious re vival, or something like that. I am concerned about those things, but the thing that dis turbs me most is this emo tional volatility which seems to be ' widespread in our country. ' "A few months ago, we were acting as if we had no fears whatever. We were moved mainly by a desire foH economy in defense and for eign aid, for tax cuts, for an easier life all around. Now we act as if fear is our only mo tivation. We are ready to spend any amount of money, to sacrifice almost any of our national values in order ' to build missiles in a hurry." any logical justification for this "hysterical fluctuation" in national mood. "In my judgment, the Sput niks have not materially in creased our peril. "We have been in very real danger ever since the Russians developed atomic weapons, We will continue to be in dan ger, no matter how many missiles of our own we. build, so long as a few men in the Kremlin possess the power to plunge the world into a war that would destroy civiliza tion." Live With Danger The basic problem facing Americans, he continued, is "to learn to liv with this danger, calmly and realistic ally," so that "our nation can make a reasoned response that will minimize the threat of war which we cannot elimi nate altogether." Does religion have a solu tion for this problem? "Yes, but it's not an easy, patent medicine answer. "I learned from combat troops in wartime that there are two philosophies which can enable a man to live cou rageously with chronic danger. "One is fatalism . the be lief that 'I'll get mine when my number is up, and not be fore'. This can produce a stoic calm in the individual, but on a national basis, it does not lead to much initiative or ef fort in trying to avert disaster. "The other antidote to fear the one which I most earn estly commend to Americans today that what theologian Reinhold N i e b u h r calls 'Christian nonchalance.' "This doesn't mean that we ignore our danger, nor that we count on God to keep us ahead of Russia in the arms race. It means only that we take very seriously the Chris tian assurance that death is not the end, that the basic values of human life are spir itual values which cannot be destroyed by hydrogen bombs Blake said he cannot see or space missiles." Children Learn Fear of Dentist From Parents (Editor's note: This is the last in a series of articles answering questions most frequently asked dentists. It is published in coopera tion with the Southern Or' gon Dental Society and the American Dental associa tion in observance of Na tional Children's Dental Health week this week.) Doctor, my little boy has been worried about going to the dentist. Don't you think it would be better if we waited until he was a little older? Children learn fear of the dentist largely from their par ents. The father or mother who threatens a visit to the dentist as punishment for mis behavior is instilling a fear that may color the youngster's attitude on dental health all his life. The first visit to the dentist should come when the child is between .two and three years of age, when all his first teeth have appeared. It is important that he view the dentist as a friend so that he will never be afraid of dental care. Early in Morning Most dentists prefer to see younger children early in the morning when the children are wide awake. Youngsters cooperate better when they are not tired. It is also a time of day when the dental office is usually not too busy and rr"re time can be spent' with the child. Most dentists also prefer that the mother stay in the reception room and that she let the dentist do the talking to the child. Periodic dental visits begun at an early age in most cases prevent serious and compli cated dental defects later . If a child's front tooth is broken or pushed out of place in an accident,- the ' child should be taken to the dentist immediately. In smaller-children, an ac cident to a front tooth is more likely to push it out of posi tion than to cause it to break. In many cases, if a front tooth is pushed up into the gum, it will re-ei;upt and resume its former positiin. ' For older boys and girls, success in saving an injured tooth, even one that has been knocked out of its socket, is often dependent upon prompt attention.'
