READ I SAMI EL Id: 10-l(i;
JOHN 5: 10-17
Samuel said to Saul, Tliou
liast done foolishly: thou hast
■ lot kept the eom mainlment
ol tin' l ord tin God. (Samuel
Id: Id.)
Samuel was God's man. He
knew God's marching orders.
If they uid not come, he hid
not move, hut stood steadfast
in holy reverence before God.
Samuel was displeased and
angry with Saul for his diso-
bedience to God. His twice-
repeated assertion, "Thou hast
not kept the commandment of
the Loril," was a serious warn-
ing to Saul for his disobedience.
Samuel withstood Saul with
courage and boldness, directing
his words straight as the arrow
flies.
Those words took hold of
Saul and lie trembled with con-
viction. In days to come, Saul
remembered this holyinan of
(iDii, especially his unselfish-
ness and justice.
What sublime beauty we find
in the life of Samuel; What an
inspiration is the memory of
hi- death; What encouragement
knowledge of l:is faithfulness
to God gives ti-: in hours of
temptation.
PRAYER: Holy Father, God
■ if all generations and all
creatures,, may we, too, be
obedient to the heavenly vis-
ion. With assurance of Thy
promise. May we stand boldly
and remain true to Thee. In
•lesiis' name. Amen.
THOUGHT FOR THE DAY:
Men of God walk humbly be-
fore Him in obedient trust.—

FARM SAFETY
Several farmers and ranchers
h;iv« rigged up weed sprayers
using bottled gas to provide
the spraying pressure. This is
one of the quickest ways we
know of to end our stay on

gerous and should not be in

recognize as its mortal enemy
the International Communist
Conspiracy. In an address to
the House on June 12. the Con-
gressman enlarged upon this
fact and then introduced a
joint resolution of a rather
shocking nature yet one that
is entirely justifiable and real-
istic in view of tiie facts which
he put before the Congress.
His address was a clear call
for America to rise up against
the forces of international
Communism. It was a call to
arms, yet it was not a war
declaration against any coun-
try. Although it did not spell
uui. in every respect the kind
of war vve should pursue, the
Congressman apparently envi-
sions his resolution as a call to
political, psychological, ethical,
and moral resistance to our
would-be conquerers rather
than a shooting or nuclear war.
It could well be the starting
point for the defeat of our ene-
my, as he has said.
War Not Understood
Such action by Congress
might seem, radical to some.
But unprecedented though it
is, a resolution of this nature
might be a most sensible and
useful approach to success in
the Cold War. This dual nature
of the war being waged by
Communism is not generally
understood. As the Congress-
man explained, one phase of
this war is being waged by the
International Communist Al-
liance, the other by the Soviet
government with its bloc and
its allied nations. I Both pres-
ently operate under the same
commander - in - chief: Nikita
Khrushchev.) Both parts have
one common purpose: to dom-
inate and destroy all nun-com-
munist nations.
The leadership of the com-
munist Party of the Soviet Un-
ion dominates all !)7 other par-
ties of the alliance and controls
its 36 million tough-minded
disciplined, revolutionary acti-
vists. These agitators engage in
infiltration, break down resis-
tance and seize power in the
Communist advance anywhere
along the front. "It conducts
its campaigns in the frame-
work of military concepts of
penetrations, advances, re-
treats, encirclements, deploy-
ment of forces and consolida-
tions of victory,” explained
Mr. Pillion.
Victory On Victory
The free world, as the
Congressman pointed out, has
been shocked and staggered by
recent tactical victories by the
Communists. Country after
country has fallen since 1D10,
and even since 1936 total pow-
er has been seized in at least
16 important nations that were
previously independent. ‘‘These
nations are tombstones of de-
feat, marking the failure of our
policies, the failure to compre-
hend the enemy, the scope and
the weapons of this total war.”
Mr. Pillion describes this
war: “Since the year 1919, this
enemy has waged a total war
upon all peoples, nations and
sant war. It is a war of indef-
inite duration — a war of
orthodox and unorthodox
methods, policies and strate-
gies — a w'ar of conventional
and unconventional weapons.
It. is a war of total enmity to
which our enemies are irrevo-
cably committed.”
The Enemy Has Declared
Although the alliance of
Communist Parties lias repeat-
edly and openly declared its
total was we have failed to be-
lieve it. As recently as Decem-
ber i960. Mr. Pillion reminds
us, the Moscow Manifesto call-
ed for an intensification of this
deadly war, with the United
States tiie principal target and
the encirclement of this nation
the Immediate goal. The danger
is clear and increasing daily. A
clear and present danger calls
for strategies that may at
times seem unusual and even
unorthodox.
The party alliance against
whicli Representative Pillion
would declare war can of
course enlist the total military
economic and political power
of the governments controlled
by them. Even the policies of
the Soviet government are de-
termined by the Party and
then executed anil supervised
in detail. Mr. Pillion's resolu-
tion would create no new war,
but it would certainly focus at-
tention upon the present war
for survival. It calls for dedica-
tion that will make possible
the defeat of a fanatical enemy
and the maintenance of man’s
freedom under God.
