Wakened tills morning by the

Hoar after roar drifted up from
the meadow and the lake lying
beyond- Somehow it starts a day
off wrong when you hear sounds
like that.
You think of the lucky gunners
out there In the fields and then
match that up agauist your own
pitiful plight. You, a miserable of
fice worm, have to crawl down to
the old desk and chair and slave
away in a stuffy office while your
luckv brethren are out In the crisp

sorted ducks, geese, pheasant and
quail.

us, no matter If you like Ike or
Stevenson, there Is something lack

They both have commitments to

to vote for someone who was free?
In ancient times God prospered
leaders and nations who looked to
Him for guidance. Stuart Hamblen
Is such a man, running on the pro

An attack of shingles, or herpes

An Interesting point about shin

ers, workers, home owners and oth
ers from the devsstatlng effects
of depression.
But In constructing this protec
tive framework, the men of the
New Deal never found the for
mula for stimulating the economy
to lull production.
Since War descended In late 1639
we have never been beyond its
shadow. The flush of early post
war times reflected pent-up buy
ing power held back by war. Here
and there signs developed of a real
tapering oil, but before any con
clusive evidence could be had the
Korean war sent us off on another
big upsurge.
Today the entire economy Is on
vastly greater scale thsn In 1036.
All kinds of legal safeguards exist
to snore up sagging income, as
for example farm price surjrjorta.
Possibly thcie are now elements
at work which can keep the econo

basis without the stimulus of war
or its preparations.
All anyone can fairly say about
