SMALL PRT SCHEDULE EVERYDAY COUNSELOR By Lord is the strength of my life; of whom shall I be afraid?” We hear much talk today about strength and military power, more powerful bombs, faster planes, submarines. But the strength which God gives is greater than all these. No nation has ever won a final and lasting victory with military force alone. Evil forces may conquer them, but eventually they are conquer ed. So it will always be. Whatever comes we may be sure of this, that if we walk with our Lord here In this world, we will walk with Him over there in the other world. “They that wait upon the Lord shall renew their strength.” Fear, worry, and uncertainty exhaust us nervously and emo tionally more than all of our oth er work combined. We live in a fear-ridden world, and so we live in a tired world. I have never seen so many tired-looking people as today. The best cure for that tired feel ing is rest—physical and spiri tual. Long ago the Psalmist wrote out directions for securing spiritual rest—“rest in the Lord.” In the beloved Twenty-Third Psalm he wrote, “He restoreth my soul: He leadeth me in the paths of righteousness for His name’s sake. Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil; for Thou art with me.” If we are to learn to rest in the Lord, we must first have faith In Him. We practice faith every day in man-made things—by receiv ing money, checks, by riding in an elevator, an automobile, an airplane.Why can’t we have faith In God? There is ample proof reaching down through the years and out amongst our friends and acquaintances that “God never forsook in need the soul that trusted Him in deed.” Faith <is one of the most power ful antidotes to fear. Faith means being unafraid, facing with con fidence and courage whatever comes. Faith means having con fidence in God and in His ability and willingness to help us. If we have faith in God and in His ability and willingness to of life, Thur<5dav 1 *"*T^’^ ~ 1. ,I,S ana wmin := ay z-J„ h 0 r n w * I! vs | help us meet the issue, there need be no fear or uncer- tainty about the future.

SENATOR STROM RMOND FrceMia’a Folly UNDER THE DESIGN of the Constitution, the Congress was in tended to be by far the most pow erful of the three branches of the National Government The pow ers vested in the National Gov- anuneot were, in fact, not dele gated to the National Government as a whole, but specifically to the Congress. The delegations of pow- ar appear in Article I, Section 8 of the Constitution which begins “The Congress shall have the power ..There was good rea son for vesting the preponderance of power in toe Congress, for of toe throe branches, the Congress ia most broadly representative of I most responsive to the people. N RECENT TEARS there has trend for the power of the National Gov- ernment to shift frees the Cengress te the ether twe branches. Se much pewer has been shift ed te the Exee- utive Branch, either by esur- partan ar delegation, that we are fast approaching a government by bureaucracy. THE PRESSURES for in creased power in the Executive Branch concentrate on each se rious problem of government and eerie to use complexity as an ex cuse and reason to concentrate power in the'Executive Branch. The power over the defense forces has thus been largely concen trated in the Executive. Despite the specific delegation of the con trol of foreign trade and tariffs to the Congress, this authority is now for all practical intents and purposes delegated to the Exec utive. CURRENTLT THERE are forces seeking to utilise the com plexities of the agricultural sur pluses in the U.S. to transfer the control of agricultural programs from the Congress to toe Presi dent and the Secretary of Agri culture, Orville Freeman. These pressures find form in the Omni bus Farm Program proposed by the Administration. THE ADMINISTRATION'S farm bill does not propose te establish any new farm in and af itself. It dou that the power te initiate programs be delegated te tbs See- retary af Agriculture and the President. UNDER THE BILL, toe Seero tary, after appointing a National Advisory Committee to consult with' him, could formulate a pro gram for any agricultural eaua- moditles, including Uveutock and poultry, which, upon approval by the President, would be trane- mitted to the Congress. Unless one House of toe Congress, with in 60 days thereafter paaeee by majority vote a resolution of dis approval, the program would go into effort; except when n pro gram containa marketing quotas and marketing orders, the pro ducer* would have to approve by S 2/3 vote in n referendum. A referendum offers little hope as a safeguard, for experience provse that all too often the alternative to approval of a proposed now program is too penal in nature to be in fart aerionriy considered as a “choice.” Under this proposal the Congress could make no change in toe program formulated by the Secretary of Agriculture, but would be left with the narrow choice of accepting it In its entire ty or taking the alternative ac tion required to veto it. THE AGRICULTURE problem is serious and toe Congress has grappled indecisively with the problem without making any sub stantial improvement in the situ ation, The responsibility of the Congress to face the issue and come up with a practical solution cannot be fulfilled, however, by passing the buck to the bureauc racy of the Executive Branch; for by delegating this responsibility to bureaucracy, the Congress would also delegate broad powers constitutionally vested in the Con gress. ON SUCH SHIFTS of power further away from the people are authoritarian and absolute gov ernments built. Complex problems, as difficult of solution by consti tutional means as they may be, do not justify a trend toward dic tatorship.
