This is a real victory for the 47,000,00u owners of television sets, who bought these receivers in reliance on free television. I hope the Senate will proceed rapidly to the adoption of my bill to prohibit pay television permanently.

Perhaps you already realixe how much the Church can help you. From the day you stand before the minister and dedicate the little one to God, on through the various, departments of Sunday School and young people’s work, the Church is always ready to lend a hand. Its spiritual message strengthens you, its worship services enrich your life, its opportunities for leadership increase your ability. In the Church you will find other fathers and mothers with problems similar to your own. You will find boys and girls, men and women, working together, and from these beginnings will grow a better home life, a better community, p better world. ' ^ Yes, this is a beginning.
