KANSAS CITY, Oct. 24 (U.P. —
The congregation of the Name of
Jesus Church continued to pray for
11-year-old Philip Bowers today
and waited for a miracle.
Philip lay critically ill with in-
fantile paralysis in the modest
home of his parents, Mr. and Mts.
Fred Bowers, who, because of re-
ligious beliefs refused to allow
him to be take nto a hospital and
placed in an iron lung.
“The Lord spoke to me and told
me that my son would live," Mrs.
Bowers said, and declined to dis-
cuss the child further.
The father, a garage mechanic,
said nothing.
Fred Klinge, 33, a carpenter who
serves as pastor of the church,
said '‘members of our congregation
are in constant prayer for Philip's
recovery.'
Doctors said there was only a
slim chance that the boy would
live, and if he did, he would be
crippled. Dr. Edward Freenough, in-
terne at General Hospital, said the
paralysis had spread through the
boy's chest and legs, and only
the fact that the diaphragm was
not yet affected permitted him to
breathe.

"In 1937 the Legislature in the
John Tarleton appropriation bill
authorised $75,000 for a Science
building. An error was made in
copying the instrument and this
particular item was inadvertently
left out of the final bill which the
Governor approved. When apprised

his constitutional authority, auhtor-

that the deficiency warrants were
issued without proper legal authority.
Many lawyers regard the legal ques-
tion as a close one.
Used Building Nips Years
"The John Tarleton Agricultural
College has had the use of the build-
ing for nine years. It is a splendid
structure, now the most used build-
ing on the campus. It houses the
library of 26,000 volumes and the
departments of chemistry, physics,
engineering, architecture and bi-
ology
“The three-story brick building
today is worth twice its original
contract price, and it still has not
been paid for. Throughout the war
the building was used to train men
for the armed forces. Today It is
being used by some 500 returned
veterans for classrooms and lab-
oratories.
Caused By Error
“This is one of those things that
just sometimes happens and likely
will never happen agan. What it
takes to correct it is the passage
of S. J. R. Number 5, which simply
authorises the Legislature to appro-
priate money to pay the contractor
who constructed the building.

Members of the Veterans Voca-
tional Agriculture class had an un-
usual Held trip activity on Wed-
nesday. Incidentally, the group, 45
strong, did a mighty good turn at
the same time.
The class under the direction of
John Nickell, instructor went to
the farm of Louis H. Langston,
veteran who is ill unable to work
and who has a family of seven,
and harvested Langston's potato
crop.
One of the class members
brought his tractor. Two others
brought along their pickups, and
in a body all pitched in and made
quick work of harvesting the crop. ,
They furnished the sacks and
handled the Job in excellent fash-
ion and with their 45 members
had plenty of man power.
Veterans officials said it was
an experience worthwhile to see
the spirit in which the class mem-
bers came to the aid of a fellow
veteran in a time of need.
Lie declared that progress in
solving the major issue of atomie
control had been "strictly limited
and it has been slow.”
Lie joined President Truman and
other world leaders in deploring
loose talk of another war and re-
minded the assembly that the United
Nations charter was based “upon
the assumption that there would be
a proper peace and that there would
be firm agreement among the
great powers.”
Agreement On Treaties
Lie was confident that agreement
on peace treaties would 'eliminate
many of the differences which have
disturbed the work of the United
Nations Qrgapization during the
first months of activity.” He said
that these stressed had subjected
“all international organizations to
a severe test."
that a British forum had rung with
criticism of Russia.- Yesterday in
the House of Commons the Russians
were accused of breaking- their
Yalta pledges, of misusing the UN
veto power and by implication of
maintaining 200 divisions of troops
“on a war footing" in occupied
Eastern Europe.
Today Attlee addressed the Brit-
ish Trades Union Congress in con-
vention here. He said the British
“would like to know‘fully and un-
derstand our Russian friends" but
charged bluntly.
“It is one of the tragedies of the
world situation that the Soviet
government appears deliberately to
prevent intercourse between the
Russian people and the rest of the
world, me - -ie .
"They are not allowed to know
what is being done and thought by
their fellows in other parts of the
world. The growth of penopal
friendship between indialuals is
frowned upon. Russian newspapers
give fantastic misrepresentations of
the world outside of Soviet Rus-
sia. ' K.
