SUNDAY and ECHO I .
My HEART IS BROKEN -
WHAT ABOUT YOURS?
By CELIA M WRIGHT
Not alone for mighty empire,
Stretching far o'er land and
sea;
Not alone for bounteous har-
vests,
Lift we up our hearts to Thee.
Standing in the living present,
Memory and hope between;
Lord, we would with deep
thanksgiving
Praise Thee most for things
unseen.
— William P. Merrell
(Methodist Hymnal)
It is with regret that I take
time out from writing about
the values of historical inter-
est in the county, and call your
attention to my broken heart.!
It is with unbearable sadness (
that I turn from the wonder-
ful contemplation of the beau-
ties and blessings of our Amer-
ica, to lament the tragedy of
Premier Khrushchev’s forced
visit to this country. For he
„did force bis way here, through
the imminent threat on Berlin,
and West Germany.
I speak of my broken heart
confident that in doing s,o I
am also interpreting your heart,
and the inmost soul of millions
of patriotic Americans, with
you, I watched the tyrant of
the Kremlin bully our people
by means of this real, though
invisible threat of destruction.
Oh yes, the threat was there,
and was expressed in Khrush-
chev’s opening remarks, when
he spoke of the latest Russian
triumph — the striking of the
moon by a Communist missile,
thus establishing Russia as the
world’s foremost military and
scientific power (in his mind).
The ihnn who has caused the
murder of millions of human
beings and who still has not
ceased to murder and imprison
his victims, arrived in the big-
gest airplane you ever saw,
piloted by American pilots who
were familiar with our air-
lanes’and the President walk-
ed the distance to the plane
to greet this world dictator,
who controls more than one-
third of the earth’s peoples.
The President was courteous,
dignified, thoughtful, but you),
could sense that he was uncom-
fortable.
Off Our Mooring*
Folks, America is away off
of her moorings. She has been
swept into waters beyond her
head. She f o r s o o k her God
when she recognized the Com-
munist government in 1933,
anil further than that, repealed
the Prohibition Amendment.
Within a period of a few years,
we had opened every avenue of
American life to infiltration
by our mortal enemies, plus
that damnable liquor which
utterly destroys its victims.
The only way back to vic-
tory and peace is in a return
to the Bible, to Christ as our
Savior, and to sobriety and
honesty. Khrushchev spoke of
peace and progress, while the
Hammer and Sickle banner
flew from the window of Blair
House just across the street
from the White House. My
spirit was humiliated from all
America to see the flag of bur
enemies, and the enemies of
God Almighty and all human-
ity, flying in the breezes of
the air of the United States.
Thrilled by Spirit
In spite of the sadness, this
Tuesday which saw the land-
ing and welcome here of this
unspeakable murderer in the
White House a n d elsewhere

was proud of the spirit of our
people. They lined the streets,
they watched, and they were
polite and courteous, but they
were distant and disgusted.
The people were also half-
heartly hoping that perhaps
this visit just might-bring about
some measure of relief to the
Berlin crisis, and the Laos
crisis.
I was proud of the self-con-
trol they demonstrated in the
i face of disaster. They knew
-that Eisenhower was hoping
for just as much courtesy when
he visits Russia on a peace
mission. Perhaps it will be so.
But, our people never learn, it
seems, that leaders without God
and moral precept.s can never
be relied upon for fairness or
peace.
You have heard that Khrush-
chev has in this visit already
won an a d v a nee of prestige
throughout the world. Our ene-
mies consider his White House
invasion as a major victory.
And the poor downtrodden pris-
oners abroad have sunken low-
er and lower in hope.
For the might of Thine arm
we bless Thee,
Our God, our father’s God;
Thou hast kept Thy pilgrim
people by the strength
of Thy staff and rod;
Thou hast called us to the jour-
ney which faithless feet
ne’er trod;
For the might of Thine arm
we bless Thee,
Our God, our fathers’ God.

Why we built two cars for 1960...
as different as night and day!
On October 2—for the first time in Chevrolet's 1+9-year history—you will be
able to walk into your dealer's showroom and see two totally different kinds of
cars. ■ One is the conventional 1960 Chevrolet, brand new in appearance and more
beautifully refined and luxurious than you can/jmagine. ■ The other is unlike
any car we or anybody else ever built—the revolutionary Corvair, with the engine
in the rear where it belongs in a compact car. ■ We'd like to tell you why we
built two such different cars, hoiv we built them—and for whom we built them.
TWO TO TWENTY —Bar-
bara Burns, 2L - year-old
daughter of the late come-
dian Bob Burns, leaves the
county- jail in Merced,
Calif., for the District At-
torney’s office following
her arrest for smoking ma-
rijuana at a ■ lqfal drive-ih.
“It’s two to twenty (years)
for me now,” Miss Bums
said- after bail was sefr^ at
$10,000. (NEA Telephoto).
Why two kinds of ears? Because America itself
has been going through some big changes in the
past few years. Our cities have been straining at
their seams. Traffic is jam-packed. Parking
space is at a premium.
And out suburbs have spread like wildfire.
People are living farther from their work, driving
more miles on crowded streets. There is new
ure time—but more things to do. There’s a
standard of living—and more need for two
cars in the family garage.
In short, America’s automobile needs have
become so complex that no one kind of car can
satisfy them completely. That is why we at
Chevrolet, keeping tab on these trends, have
had a revolutionary compart car in the planning
stages for more than nine years undergoing
revisions and refinements.
Consequently, when we decided three years
ago to prepare for production of such a car we
were ready to build it the way it should be built.
There was no need for a hasty “crash” program
that would create only a sawed-off version of a
conventional-sized car.
That is why the two cars you will see in your
dealer’s showroom October 2 will be two
entirely different kinds of cars—each one built
the way it should be built, to best fill the needs it
was meant to fill.
One is the conventional '60 Chevrolet—brand
new in beauty, with new space inside, new spirit
under the hood, a new feeling of sumptuousness
and luxury never before attained by any car in
its field. There is great V8 power, linked with
new thrift, plus Chevrolet’s superb (and
America’s most popular) 6-cvlinder engine. It is
a traditional car that comes even closer to per-
fection—in silence, in room, in ease of control, in
velvety ride—than any car we have ever made.
The other is the Corvair, a compact car that
is astonishingly different from anything ever
built in this country. It has to be—because this
is a six-passenger compact car, with a really
remarkable performance ... a car designed
specifically to American standards of comfort,
to American traffic needs.
The engine is in the rear. Among the basic
advantages resulting from this engine location
are better traction on a compact 108-inch wheel-
base and a practically flat floor. But to be placed
in the rear, the engine had to be ultra light and
ultra short. So Corvair’s engine is totally new—
mostly aluminum and air cooled; it weighs about
40 per cent less than conventional engines. It is a
“fiat” horizontally opposed six—so it is only
three cylinders long . . . and that leaves a lot
more room for passengers.
Another weight saving: like modern airplanes,
the Corvair has no frame; the body-shell supplies
its great structural strength . . . it’s a welded
unit that is virtually squeak- and rattle-free.
The ride is fantastic. But to get it we had to
design independent suspension at every wheel;
conventional springing would give a’compact car
a choppy ride. Rightjjfow we’ll make one pre-
diction: the Corvair will be the only American
compact car with this type of suspension system
—the only one that rides so comfortably, holds
the road so firmly and handles so beautifully.
Now there are two kinds of cars from Chevrolet
—because it takes two kinds of cars to serve
America’s needs today. If you love luxury—the
utmost in luxury—and If you watlt generous
interior space, breath-taking performance, auto-
matic drives and power assists—then the con-
ventional ’60 Chevrolet may be your choice.
If easy parking, traffic agility and utmost
economy are high on your list—then you should
seriously consider the Corvair. But the best
thing to do is to look these two new cars over at
your Chevrolet dealer’s . . . take them out for a
drive. It may be that the only logical choice for
your family between two cars like this is—both.
They make a perfect pair.
