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,

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.
