GRASSROOTS
OPINION
MILES CITY, MONT.. STAR:
"That wartime excise tax on all
domestic passenger transporta-
tion, first imposed by Congress
in 1941 to discourage travel by
those who weren't obliged to go
somewhere, is still effective. . . .
"Last year the Senate voted
overwhelmingly for its full re-
peal, but niff-nawing in the
House resulted in a compromise,
reduction of the travel excise
from ten to five percent on July
1st, this year. But this leaves the
job only half done.
"It continues to depress the
travel industry, the air, bus and
rail lines, in many cases cutting
taxable earnings to the point
where the Government loses
more in income tax than it gains
from the travel tax."
ALMA, MICH., RECORD:
""Contrary to a sometimes heard
observation, newspapers must
have support if they are t^
serve. There is rarely a weejk
goes by that we don't have more
news than we can' publish be-
cause of a lack of advertising to
support it. There is rarely a
week goes by that someone
doesn't suggest that we expand
this way or that. We appreciate
these suggestions and are keep-
ing them on file for future ref-
erence. Yet the fact remains
that these needs cannot be ac-
complished without the recog-
nition and support of the
people."
LAWRENCEVTLLE. VIRGIN-
IA, NEWS: "The Internal Reve-
nue Service recently ruled that
certain advertisements by pri-
vate power companies, adver-
tisements which discussed pub-
lic power companies, could not
be deducted as a business ex-
pense by the priVate power
companies . . .
"We. . . .believe that the pri-
vate power companies have a
perfect right to. . . .decide what
is legitimate advertising expense
and what is not—not the Internal
Revenue Service of the U.S.
Government. If the Service can
do this to the private power
industry, it can intimidate many
other major industries and cur-
tail freedom of expression and
opinion to an alarming degree."

NEWS FROM
CONGRESS
By Congressman Prank Ikard „
Of general interest to everyone
who is either himself over sixty-
five years of age or has parents
who have passed that age is a
bill that was recently approved
by the Congress. This new law
provides that all medical ex-
penses may be deducted with-
out reference to the present 3%
limitation when such expenses
are incurred for the care of a
dependent father or mother if
they have reached the age of
65 before the close of the tax-
able year. This new provision is
effective as of the first of this
year.
There has been a great deal
of discussion about the crowded
conditions of the dockets in the
Federal Courts. In an effort to
relieve this situation, the Com-
mittee on the Judiciary this
week reported to the House a
bill which would provide for
| three new Federal District
1 Judges from Texas. If this bill
becomes law, there will be new
judges in the Northern, South-
ern, and Western Districts of
Texas which will mean that
there will be four Federal
Judges in our section of the
State.
One hundred fifty million ad-
ditional loan authority was given
to the Small Business Admin-
istration this week. This Agency
was created to make credit
available to small businesses and
has performed a very useful
purpose. This new authorization
will make possible the continua-
tion of its service.
A significant step toward the
further conservation of the water
in the Rio Grande was taken this
week when the House approved
a bill authorizing the conclu-
sion of an agreement for the
joint construction between the
United States and Mexico of
another storage dam on the
Rio Grende. This Dam, the
Amistad Dam, will be above the
present Falcon Reservoir and is
being built to control the flood
waters above that Reservoir.
The cost to the United States
will amount to just about what
the flood damages were in the
1958 flood. Besides being an im-
portant step toward effective
water conservation which is so
desperately needed in the South-
west, the development of this
Project is further evidence of
the fine relations that exist be-
tween the United States and
Mexico and demonstrates what
two friendly countries can do
toward developing their resourc-
es for the good of the peoples
of both countries.

POLITICAL PAYOLA
We've all heard about 'payola"
—a device where, according to
the revelations of a Congression-
al investigating body, disc
jockeys obtained large sums of
money along with valuable gifts
from record companies in re-
turn for plugging the product.
This, coming on the heels of the
TV quiz-show scandals, has left
a bad taste in the mouths of
millions of Americans.
But there's another form of
"payola" that is far more im-
portant. Congressman Halleck
deserves the credit for calling
attention to it. He describes the
avalanche of proposed muilti-
billion dollar spending bills as
"political payola." In his words,
they "simply hand out the tax-
payer's money to buy votes for
the next election."
If the "political payola" groups
have their way. there won't be
a budget surplus. In all prob-
ability, there'll be a deficit in-
stead. Then we'll have more
inflation—and, ultimately, still
more and higher taxes. How
does that prospect strike you?
CARD OF THANKS
I would like to thank every
one for the cards and gifts,
while 1 was in the hospital.
God bless all.
Mrs. Mary Maddox
A new 4-H Automtive program
introduced nationally early this
year has a potential membership
of 400.000 boys and girls. Half
this number reaches driving
age each year, according to the
Cooperative Extension Service
which directs the program.
The project is a voluntary
undertaking for older 4-H Club
members to be carried out over
a three-year period. Specialized
training will supplement driver
education courses given in many
high schools, but in some in-
stances will be the only "super-
vised" instruction available to
4-H'ers in their home commun-
ities.
The work assignments will be
guided by experienced volun-
teer adult leaders assisted by
state and county highway en-
gineers. police, automotive ex-
perts and other qualified to help
do the job.
One workbook will be used
for each year. Unit I covers
The Car and the Highway; Unit
II Maintenance and Operation;
Unit III Operating the Car Effi-
ciently.
More traffic deaths and in-
juries occurred last year than in
1958. and 28.7% of the drivers
involved in fatal accidents were
under 25 years of age.
Raymond C. Firestone, presi-
dent of the Firestone Tire &
Rubber Company, which is
sponsoring the program, stated
"We are particularly hopeful
that this program will help
reduce the high incidence of
fatal accidents among our young
drivers."
Those engaged in the 4-H
Automotive care and safety
program contend that the more
young people learn about the
car they are driving, the less
likely they are to take chances
with that car.
For club members who ful-
fill the objectives of the auto-
motive program, Firestone will
provide a variety of awards in-
cluding a week in Chicago as a
delegate to the National 4-H
Club Congress, plus $400 college
scholarships for six of the high-
est ranking 4-H'ers in the nation.

'60 Texas Baptist
Father of Year
A San Antonio Baptist leader
who has invented an array of
mechanical devices to brighten
a paralyzed daughter's life has
been named 1960 Texas Baptist
Father of the Year.
The Rev. Cecil A. Ray, super-
intendent of missions for the
San Antonio Baptist Association,
will receive the award during a
presentation at the San Antonio
Pastors' Conference June 20. Dr.
E. S. James, editor of the Bap-
tist Standard, state denomina-
tional newspaper, will present
the award.
Working nights, the 38-year-
old minister has built a unique
motor chair, three iron lungs,
chest respirators, rocking beds,
mechanical desks and assorted
other chairs and bathing equip-
ment.
His daughter, 12 - year - old
Susan Ray, deftly drives the
Ray-designed motor chair around
the house by using sensitive
switches at her fingertips and
toes. Sha has been able to move
only her hands and toes slightly
since a critical polio attack in
1952.
Using a specially - designed
desk, Susan can write and i3
now learning to paint. By tilting
her head from side to side,
Susan touches delicate switches
that mova the desk before her
sling-supported hands.
A committee selected the Rev.
Ray for the Texas Baptist
Father of the Year award "be-
cause of his significant applica-
tions of Christian faith in help-
ing his daughter overcome severe
handicaps." He was nominated
for the honor by San Antonio
pastors.
The Father of the Year award
is sponsored jointly by the Bap-
tist Standard and the IV2 mil-
lion - member Baptist General
Convention of Texas.
When polio struck Susan at
the age of four, she lay at the
brink of death for more than
six months, gasping desperate-
ly for svery breath.
"But we refused to accept the
doctor's reports that there was
nothing we could do. We simp-
ly began to look for a way to
help Susan," the Rev. Ray said.
Donning overalls and welding
goggles. Rev. Ray, then pastor
of Arnctt Benson Baptist Church
at Lubbock, began his part-
time career as an inventor.
When Rev. Ray began to plan
the unique motor-driven chair
for Susan, he realized that he
must not neglect his young son
because of his daughter's handi-
cap. Lanny, his nine-year-old.
was the first kid in the neigh-
borhood to have his own gaso-
line powered "Go-car." His dad
built it soon after developing
Susan's motor chair.

PROTECTNG THE RECORD
Monday morning quarterbacks
always have brilliant hindsight.
How well they can see the
coaches' mistakes last week.
So. with a lawsuit: After the
jury brings in its verdict, peo-
ple can tell how your lawyer
should have tried your case.
But, as with sports, it's hard
to look forward into the swirl
of moves and counter moves to
see how a given move would
make out in a trial.
What's worse, unless your
lawyer objects and makes the
proper motion, he may lose the
right later to have the court
strike a piece of damaging evi-
dence from the record.
Fully to protect you, your
lawyer must so flight your case
that he could take it, if need be,
"on the record" to a higher
court by objecting then and
there. That's why a lawyer may
seem always to be objecting.
He has to.
If he had not, for example,
moved to "quash the indictment"
or objected to certain evidence,
the higher court might reject
his appeal where your life,
liberty, or property may be at.
stake.
By court rules, the lawyer
still had the duty of "protecting
the record."
In the heat of a trial, your
lawyer must always keep in
mind the thoughtful justices on
the appellate benches. For they
may some day sit down calmly
to review what he did or did
not do in the excitement of a
trial.
'Next Sunday's Lesson-And You!1
By NORMS ONSTEAD
Pastor, First Baptist Church
BIBLE MATERIAL: Matthew
7:15-23; 25:31-4«; Luke 13:6-9
SUBJECT: "The Test of a
Christian"
EMPHASIS: "Abide in me. and
I in you. As the branch cannot
bear fruit of itself, except it
abide in the vine; no more can
ye, except ye abide in me."
John 15:4
LESSON BACKGROUND: We
are still studying the Sermon
on the Mount by Jesus. The
three different Bible passages in
the Bible Material shed light
upon "The Test of a Christian."
The Christians were warned to
beware of false teachers, those
who seem to be doing good for
G' I but, who, in reality were
working for Satan. Man shall
stand before the judgment, like
sheep and wolves. Those who
have demonstrated that their
after | characters have been changed
FIRST BAPTIST CHURCH
Pastor
Susan's attack, she was to return I for good—as demonstrated by
to Houston for a check-up. At j their good works will be usher-
that time, portable car-travel 1
iron lungs had not been devel-
poed. Susan had previously
flown to Houston in a special
lung - equipped plane from
Brooks Air Force Base.
Members of his church and j
friends helped the Rev. Ray;
build a special miniature, bat-'
tery-powered lung to fit into a j
specially-modified station wagon. !
They completed the lung only j
three days before the scheduled j
trip.
About 50 miles outside of
ed into heaven. Those who have
demonstrated that there has been
no real change will be con-
signed to hell. The parable of
the fruitless fig tree demon-
strates the tree is basically un-
sound and unworthy to remain
in the vineyard.
TODAY'S LESSON FOR YOU:
It is a wonderful thing to do
good works for Jesus Christ—
not to be seen of men, not for
self-satisfaction, but to please
the Lord. Yet, one cannot please
the Lord by any acts of works
unless he has made inward,
spiritual peace with God through
surrender to Jesus. What does
this mean? It could mean that
some people perform works that
seem to be "religious" and "real
fine" but not acceptable to the
Lord. Why? Because they have
substituted their good works for
their own souls. We cannot give
our service to God until we give
our hearts to Christ. This is the
test of a Christian. How do yout
measure?
