One of hi* dlaclpiei said unte him. Urd. teach us te pray.—Lake Ull.
There are clearly defined areas o*' life when a prayer for dally bread
and health and many other things may be asked for. but prayer should
also put us in harmony with the Infinite. We should seek world con-
formity to his will.
Toward Better Living
IT’S amazing, even shocking, that wealthy aa we are as a
* nation and as advanced as we are In many ways, the home
conditions under which many of us live are so backward.
For instance, about 20 percent of the average city’s resi-
dential areas are slums. A great many of us, perhaps most
of us, go through our entire lives without ever knowing at
first hand what those slums are like. But they’re still there.
Not only that, but few of us realize that not only are
we ducking a great social responsibility by allowing slums
to exist—we’re also guilty of incredibly bad economics. A
commercial business would go to the wall in a week if it
allowed to exist within its organization a condition like a
city’s slum section.
Figures of the federal works agency show that 45 percent
of city service costs are poured into slum areas, whereas only
6 percent of tax revenues are derived from those sections.
IN view of these lamentable facts, it’s good to see what
1 they’re doing in Columbus, Ohio.
The Farm Bureau Insurance companies, a cooperative
farmer group which has amassed more than $158,000,000
in the insurance business, is laying out $30,000,000 of it to
build a dream town two miles outside of Columbus.
It’s to be called Lincoln Village, for Farm Bureau Presi-
dent Murray Lincoln, who developed the idea, and it won’t
be just another subdivision, but a complete community—
homes, stores, factories, parks, everything.
There have been many other similar communities in
various parts of the country—government-built Greenbelt
in Washington, D. C.; Levittown, on Long Island—but they
weren’t complete. That is, people’s jobs and their homes
weren’t brought together. And that’s the big feature at
Lincoln Village.
Of the 1,170-acre community tract, 550 acres will be for
light and heavy industry. Already, General Motors has a
big factory alongside the development, and VVestinghouse is
putting one up.
THE convenience of factory workers being able to walk
to work in 10 minutes or so almost makes the project
worth while in itself.
But that’s not all. The whole community will be centered
around the school. It will be located on a 20-acre tract,
providing for large playgrounds and a wooded park.
Wide buffer strips of trees and bushes will separate
home areas from factories, stores and the railroad which
passes nearby. Streets will be winding instead of laid out in
monotonous squares. An ingenious system of walkways will
give children maximum protection against auto traffic.
As far as possible, homes will be of different size, shape
and cost, to prevent the sameness which characterizes so
many mass-dwelling communities.
All in all, the Lincoln Village experiment sounds like
something we need more of. It doesn’t wipe out alums but
it certainly helps balance the scales toward better living
conditions generally.
The average girl doesn’t discover that candy is sold by
the bag until she gets married.
Missouri is away out in front in raising mules. We’d
t>ay that’s a very good place to be.
Police, says a judge, shouldn’t be too hasty about arrest-
ing a man for vagrancy. He may be shopping with his wife.

XXXIV
pETE MORRISON couldn’t use
* H*s gun without danger of kill-
ing Walter. He thrust the gun back
Into the holster and drew his own
knife as he rushed to the boy’*
rescue, but Juan Chee was already
back inside the tent, and Pete saw
his purpose. There was someone
lying helpless Inside the tent he
Intended to destroy, or use a knife
at the throat to bargain for Ills
own life.
Pete yelled. It was something
he had never douc In a fight, but
it was lorn out of him: half in
warning, half in dismay. He
lunged frantically, driving his
shoulder Into Walter’s back, but
knocking the Navajo off balance.
Juan Chee sprawled sideways
against the wall of the tent and
went down, but Pete and Walter
fell with him.
Juan Ctvee twisted like a lithe
snake until Walter was pinned be-
neath him. and looked up at Pete.
For a moment Pete looked Into the
Navajo's black, expressionless eyes
that seemed somehow hypnotic,
then he saw the long blade Juan
Chee was driving at his heart.
Pete caught the Navajo's fore-
arm with his left hand and checked
the force of the thrust, but the
knife-point bit Into his flesh near-
ly an inch. Then, striking cross-
handed over his own arm he drove
his knife deep, deep into the In-
dian's breast. Juan Chee relaxed
with a hissing gasp.
Pete scrambled up and rolled
the Navajo off of Walter. His anx-
iety lest the boy be terribly hurt
subsided when he saw Walter's
grin.
He turned then to give his at-
tention to Betty, and what he saw
gave him the start of his life. She
was there all right, but tied back
to back to Cass Dean!
Neither girl could move, so
tightly were they trussed, but they
were not gagged. Cass was first to
speak. She said, "I had a feeling
you’d be along.”
Pete finally found his voice. “I
knew Betty was here, but I never
dreamed that you were.”
He was too bewildered to even
try to understand things just then.
Before cutting the. girls loose he
stepped outside the tent to make
sure none of the Mexicans were
still dangerous. Only one remained
alive, and he would not be that
way long.
He returned then and cut the
girls loose, and assisted them to
nse. “I like Betty,” Cass said, "but
I never want to be that close to
her again.”
* * *
IT was characteristic of Betty
* that her first act was to bend
over Walter to see how badly he
was hurt. He had several slashes
down his right leg, but Juan Chee
had not been able to cripple him.
Pete went out and dragged the
dead Mexican out of the fire, and
rolling the four bodies together,
covered them with a blanket. The
girls, once they had got the
cramps out of their muscles, pro-
ceeded to bandage up Walter’s
wounds. Cites was adept at that
kind of business.
“You'll be all right now,” she
smiled at the boy.
Pete was trying to figure things
out. If Cass had betrayed him, she
wouldn't be here now.
Betty asked, “Where is my fath-
er? Why didn't he come with
you?"
“I haven't seen him, Betty, but
wherever be is, he is trying lo find
you."
"But he was at Two Rivers," she
said. "I understand enough Span-
ish to know that Juan Chee told
the Mexicans my father and you
had attacked Two Rivers, captured
the place, and killed Zad Barnes.
That Is why Juan Chee was in
such a hurry to get us into Mexico.
He told the others there was no
chance to get any more slaves, but
that Cass and I would bring a big
price.''
Pete couldn't doubt now that
Nate had come on with his men
to make an attack on Two Rivers.
That accounted for the shooting
which he had been unable to
understand. But not knowing what
it was he had had no choice except
to travel on and try to overtake
Juan .Chee. He certainly couldn't
regret having done so.
He told them then how he and
Walter had tried to dispose of Zad
Barnes, and how they had seen
and followed Juan Chee.
“I didn't even know If Barnes
was dead.” he said with a glance
toward Cass.
Betty said. ''If I understood cor-
rectly Juan Chee wasn't sure
either, but he thought he yeas."
Pete replenished the fire, and
cooked breakfast from the Mex-
icans' ample supply of food. He
was still badly worried. The news
that Nate might still be at Two
Rivers had removed a mountain
of worry from his ahoulders. He
had deliberately shut his, mind to
the question of how to restore Bet-
ty to her father, while still on the
trail, preferring to solve that prob-
lem when he came to It.
* * *
Ej^HAT worried him now was
* * Cass. How was he going to
tell her that he had been con-
vinced that she was guilty of the
basest betrayal? There were still
many matters about that which he
couldn't understand.
And, If he had been all wrong,
what were their relations going to
be in the future? If she hadn't
sold out to Zad Barnes then he
must consider that she probably
still expected to marry him. Cer-
tainly she could have come to Two
Rivers, in the first place for no
other reason.
Did he want to marry her? He
had been in love with her a good
nuny years. She was beautiful and
attractive, and possessed a culture
that would make her at home In
any society.
He couldn't help contrasting her
with Betty: a girl who had lived
most of her life in the crudest kind
of frontier and who had associated
with the wirst of outlaws.
Only by the greatest difficulty
had Betty taught herself to even
read. She knew absolutely noth-
ing of tlve cutside world.

A 8ALUTE to lb* Mighty
** Midgets, their eooch and
their sponsor.
Baseball is my game. Have
watched with considerable inter-
est the enthusiasm of the young-
sters for the national pastime and
find that but few are Indifferent
to Us charm. If a kid plays base-
ball. he gives It his all. It te his
first and only love and nothing
short of battle, murder and sud-
den death can keep him out of
the park when he is supposed to
be there.
It Is a brotherhood not to be
Invaded by flakers, skaters, hunt-
ers. golfers, tennis tans, or what
have you. All these sports ball-
players indulge in for amusement
in their spare tune, but baseball—
Ah-h-h me. there te something
else again.
VTASEBALL is for the rich and
" the poor, for the kids from
the right and wrong side of the
track, and If a feller can pitch,
catch, run, hit or throw, It mat-
ters not where he goes to school,
what fraternity if any. he be-
longs too, what church he is
affiliated with, or what hte race
or color. His old man may be a
push-cart peddler or a cabinet
member, and his old lady can be
a scrub woman in an office build-
ing or the president of (he Junior
League; neither will make a ball
player of him or keep him from
being one.
IN the budding stage of ball
^ players oue often hears said
"the kid is a natural." There
aren't any naturals. He may be
unusually well coordinated which
makes him look good at any-
thing he tries. But the big-time
players got that way working at
it. Honus Wagner, one of base-
ball's heaviest hitters in his day,
was called a "natural” but he had
keened his eye and developed his
wrrlst and arm movement by the
practice of throwing pebbles Into
the air and hitting them with a
sawed-off broomstick as they
came down.
Every youngster who plays base-
ball isn't going to be a Babe
Ruth, Lou Oehrlg or a Ty Cobb,
but he couldn't pick a better Idol
or a finer pattern for his life.
Fisherman Pleased As
Fish Fail to Nibble
FLINT. Mich.. July 21—(UP)—Phi!
Rettenmund wasn't carrying his
fishing license when he was show-
ing his son how to cast.
But as soon as his plug hit the
water, a game warden confronted
him and asked him to produce hte
permit.
It took a lot of explaining, but
Rettenmund convinced the warden
he wasn't actually fishing — Just
showing his son how to cast.
Retternmund said that for the
first time in his fishing career he
was happy he hadn't had a strike.

★ WASHINGTON COLUMN ★
•T PETER ED SON
NEA Washington Correspondent
Diplomats Called on Truman
During His Washington Visit
WASHINGTON — <NEA> — Not
"" much attention was paid to it
at the time, but in addition to all
the Democratic politicians who
called on ex-President Harry 8.
Truman during hia recent Wash-
ington visit, there were nine foreign
ambassadors among the visitors.
Mast of the calls were purely
social. The ambasadors who had
been in Washington while Mr Tru-
man was in the White House mere-
ly came nround to pay their offi-
cial respects.
But several of the ambassadors
came around to ask Mr. Truman If
he couldn’t do something to get
them In to see President Been bow-
er. They said they had filed their
official requests with the 8tate De-
partment. But nothing ever hap-
pened. They wantd some action.
Ex-President Truman had to con-
fess to hte old friends that there
wasn't much he could do about it
In tact, it was surmised that if he
sent such a request over to the
White House, it would do the am-
bassadors' cause more harm than
good.
YU a recent article by this correa-
* pondent on the "State Depart-
ment Cleart-up" It was stated that
Mrs. Oveta Culp Hobby. Secretary
of the Department of Health, Edu-
cation and Welfare, would not give
“assurances of no security risk" in
the case of Mrs. Mildred McAfee
Horton.
Mrs. Hobby says, as reported, that
she sponsored Mrs. Horton's ap-
pointment as U. S. delegate to the
United Nations Economic and So-
cial Council. Mrs. Hobby says she
was asked to recommend someone
for this appointment by the De-
partment of State. At no time,
however, says Mrs.,Hobby, did she
refuse to vouch for Mrs. Horton on
the question of security, and she
was never asked to do so.
rpHERE was considerable specu-
lation and gossip in Washington
over whether President Eisenhower
should have invited ex-President
Truman to come over to the White
House for a friendly chat. It be-
came an argument ol protocol vs.
politics.
Ex-President Truman sort of put
the kibosh on any such meeting
before he got to Washington, by
saying that the President had more
to do than see every Tom, Dick
and Harry who came along.
President Elsenhower invited in
Adlai Stevenson before he began
his world tour. President Truman
invited in ex-President Herbert
Hoover and put him to work on
postwar famine-relief problems, ev-
en though Truman's political ad-
visers were against it. And Tru-
man's first act when he revisited
the Senate was to go shake hands
with the ailing Senator Taft.
There was some feeling that the
courteous thing would have been
for Mr. Truman to go over and pay
his respects to the President, just
to show there was no hard feeling.
But Raymond D. Muir, deputy chief
of protocol at the State Depart-
ment is authority for the statement
that an ex-president should always
wait to be invited to the White
House, "just like any other citi-
zen."
AT the dinner reunion which ex-
•*» President. Truman had with
those members of his cabinet who
were in Washington, former Secre-
tary of State Dean Acheson presid-
ed as master of ceremonies.
Mr. Acheson told one on himself.
When he came back from his vaca-
tion in the West Indies, the first
morning he set out for hte law ot-
lice he decided to walk. It's a good
two-mile hike.
Going along one busy street, the
former Secretary of State said he
heard an auto horn being sounded
somewhat angrily behind him. Tha
driver of the car kept It up. Turn-
ing around to tee what it was all
about, the ex-secretary said he
thought to himself. "What’s that?
People still giving Acheson the
Bronx cheer?”
