Whereas all real Christians accept Jesus as the authorilative and final teacher and example and the Lord of the Sabbath on all matters of morals and religion.

Mr. Truman figures spending will outstrip income by more than $5,000,000,000 in the fiscal year be ginning July 1. 1 While George sai(l he hasn’t stud ied the budget enough in detail to Is-ay where specific cuts should be made he observed that if there is to be any saving, “Congress can’t do everything the special interest groups want.” i “I don’t believe we can maintain ;our present type o/ political struc- iture unless we cut back on spend ing,” he said. George thus seconded the views of Senator Byrd (D-Va.), who has | been contending that unless Con gress balances the budget for the year beginning July 1 “iT will not be balanced until we go over the precipice of financial disaster.” j George and Byrd have called in the past for economies which Congress jhas not seen fit to enact. ■ WE'D WELCOME ■ A CfiANCC \ TO SERVE YOU/ COOPER MOTOR CO.
