Washington, Nov. 29—'Further curbs on civilan use of scarce metals such as steel and aluminum, a revolt of business generally against enact ment of an excess profits tax at the coming session of congress anxiety over what is happening in the Far East with regard to Communist Chi na and other nations, and conjecture •ver just what results of the election meant in terms of the nation’s econ omy occupy official Washington. There are obvious indications that the needs of defense are slowly eat ing into the nation’s supply of steel, aluminum and other materials which go into the production of armaments and other needs of the military in building a 3,000,000-man army and a commensurate navy and air force. Result: cut-back? in the use of mater*, ials in short supply for non-essential needs or commodities. There also is every indication that the nation’s production business is now in a twi light zone of uncertainty about what is going to happen to- producers of non-essential commodities. This twi light zone also extends to the con trols agencies already set-up, for the reason that there has as yet been no clear picture of the extent of the de mands to be made by defense agen cies. Therefore these control agencies are, for the most part marking time, Blue Hose Top Newberry Indians 20-6 To End Season Speedy Presbyterian college backs broke away for touchdown jaunts of 24, 71 and 80 yards to down New berry 20-6 here Thanksgiving Day and win the return of the Bronze Derby. Newberry fluffed several first-half scoring chances, among them a drive down to the Presbyterian one-yard line. / • The visitor’s lone touchdown came on a pass, Quarterback Charles Ber ry to End John Boring in the second quarter, good for 20 yards. The play was set up by a fumble recovered on the Presbyterian 25. Presbyterian Right Halfback Hol lis Cate reeled off hie St-ysTj peer ing ruu in the first quarter, on the first play after P. C. recovered a fumble. Bud Neely converted. Left Halfback George Fleming took a handoff from Righ Half T$d Sasier after a Newberry punt in the third quarter and streaked 71 yards down the sideline to paydirt. Sasser got into the scoring act in the next period, intercepting one of Berry’s passes on the P. C. 20 and running it back 80 yards. Presbyterian tried a field goal in the third quarter from the seven- yard line, but it was wide. Guard H. C. Starnes pounced on a Newberry fumble that ended the visitors’ second quarter scoring threat on the one. A crowd of about 3,000 turned out for the game, last of the year for both schools. Newberry wound up with a 1-9 record, Presbyterian all even at 5-5. SIX-INCH SERMON By Rev. Robert H. Harper <► t" . f m&qk op L UM BURR qum-itv 3UILDIN6 A HOtf e?

Memory Selection: Romans 12:1. Because of, and through, the “mer cies of God’’ Paul called upon the Roman Christians to present their bodies a living sacrifice to God Through the organs of sense we may serve others. With the eyes we may- see the needs around us, and with the ears we may hear their cry of j Hi ♦!•??-. The hand" may un to the needy. Upon the feet we may! go upon errands of love and mercy | With the tongue we may speak words! of cheer and comfort, and voice the' praise of God. Differing gifts are made. The only shame that can come is in the failure .to use what one has. The man of one talent was not condem ned because he had only one talent, but because he did not use what he had. In the same ratio of increase with the other men who received tal ents, he would have had two talents if he had developed what he had. Whatever your gift may be, use it well in God’s service. The secret of good stewardship is found among the Macedonian Christ ians, who gave more than was ex pected of them for the poor saints in Jerusalem, because they first “gave their own selves to the Lord.” Among the Macedonians was Epa- phroditus, who brought a gift from the church at Philippi to Paul. At Rome he fell dangerously ill and came near death. Paul sent him back to his fellow Christians, with warm commendation. U. S. Will Support 1951 Crop Cotton At 90% of Pority Washington, Nov. 24—The agricul ture department announced today it will support grower prices of 1951 crop cotton at 90 per cent of parity— the same level as this year’s crop.

Statements by Sen. Robert A. Taft of Ohio and Senator-elect Everett Dirksen of Illinois critical of the ad ministration foreign policy and the announcement by Sen.

These Republicans, for the moot part, have voted against the main features of this ao-called b.- partisan policy, or have voted to cur tail or cripple theae policies. Also, observers here have pointed out that Sen. Joseph McCarthy of i Wisconsin and those who supported ban in his attacks on Dean Acheeoo. secretary of state, and alleged Com anunlst infiltration in that department believe they have been vindicated at the polls If that is true, and this probe continues. Washington will bo an unpleasant city in which to live, for suspicion, distrust and disunity will walk the streets, will stalk the * corridors of the beautiful pvfblic buildings These observers believe * the pressure will became too strong even for President Truman; so Ache- son, s fighter, and one of the ablest men in Washington official life, like ly will be forced to step out in the interest of the President. President Truman's political advis- * ers have spoken out against a special sesaion of the congress, and, as this 4 is written, there is likelihood that no call will be issued. Those close to Mr. Truman can see little advantage in bringing the congress in a month earlier for a lame duck session, when the next congress might undo every thing done. Only threat of outright war with Red China or Russia is like ly to bring the legislators back to Washington before November 27. Big business is building up a tre mendous lobby to do battle against enactment of an excess profits tax. 4 4 They admit that additional taxes should be levied in the form of an increased corporation tax, but want some other form of bill to replace the old war-time profits measure. ♦ : MORE PEOPLE ARE READING THE CHRONICLE THAN EVER BEFORE!
