Thompson, member of the Presbyterian college faculty, in the department of his lory, was first winner—the past ■week in a. Bible contest conducted by Grady Cole in The Charlotte News. Mr. Thompson’s letter told which of the last seventeen chap ters of “The Greatest Book Ever Written” he liked best, and why. The purpose of the contest, Mr. Cole said, was to get more people to read Oursler’s modern-day ver- pion of the Old Testament—one written in everyday language! For being selected first 1 in the large from their homeland, laboring in bondage, their future could not have been gloomier. “Yet we learn from their won derful message, the “Handwriting on the Wall,” that their God had .not forsaken them; and, 'which is just as important, they had not forsaken their God.

McKin ney said today he thinks the possi bility of President Truman’s run ning for re-election will be “lessen ed” if there is a satisfactory set tlement of the Korean war. McKinney, who has just had a two days of talks with Truman, told a news conference the Korean situation is a “aramount” factor in the President’s considerations. He was asked whether “ a Ko rean settlement would lessen the chances of Mr. Truman peeking re-election.” McKinney replied: “In my opin ion, it may, and that is my opin- ion. McKinucy said that if Truman does not fun the President will not attempt |o dictate the Demo cratic nomineb but will favor an “orpen convention.” McKinney also said the President will not make any announcement of his intentions to the Jefferson-. Jackson dinner of the Democratic Party in Washington March 29, but will do so “in ample time before the July convention” to clear the way for other candidates. McKinney said his own target date for public word from the President is May 15 when the Dem ocratic Executive Committee meets in Chicago to pick a keynoter and other officers for the convention. i* 4 IF YOU DON’T READ ’ THE CHRONICLE YOU DON’T GET THE NEWS number of entries, Mr. Thompson Hty 1 .
