It has long been known to scholars that the Bible is an inexhaustible source for new discoveries eoneerning life. One o! the greatest problems facing man has been his in ability to understand the Bible even when he read it. Now that excuse has been de molished Among the many and new translations of the Bible are two paperbacks published by the American Bible Society, "Ciood News for .Modern Man,” which is the New Testament in today’s English, and "The The author, a sclent clergyman, writes o! do. mented appearances of m, erous objects observed m ■ sky called ‘‘Flying Same!

PROSPECTS At the beginning of this year, the number of cattle and calves on farms stood at 108.- 813.000. — up slightly from a year earlier and about 2.7 million head above the 5-year average. Cattle and calves on feed top year- ago levels. Although no runaway marketings are presently indicated, our forecast is that consumers should be able to buy beef at low er than current prices in the weeks directly ahead. The hog inventory on farms is a bit high er than a year ago and hog slaughter is ex pected to trend above comparable 1967 levels to mid-year and quite possibly beyond. This reflects the sizable fall pig crop. . . mostly in pigs that are slated tore each slaughter weights this spring. We predict a further backtracking in hog prices before any turn about occurs, but foresee no very sharp de cline from current quotes. On Anri' lo, a nnuT-needec! law l>e- enmc's ettective. It was passed i-v the a>t <essi<»n <>f Congress and is known ‘he Prohibition of Pandering Ad vertisements Act. We hope that the readers of this page will make use of the law to. dry up a Mream of filfH whi"h has been flowing through the mails. Congressman Glenn Cunningham, of Xe; Task a. sponsored the legislation’. He describes the law this way. It says that if obscene or smut advertise ments are addressed to "me or mv minor child . . . and I don’t want to receive it and do not wish my minor child to receive it. I will write a letter to the Post Office Department .... I will attarh to the letter the material I determine to be erotically arousing . and the Postmaster General is dir ected to not if v the sender to remove my name or the name of my minor children from his mailing list. If after thirtv days he does not comply, the Postmaster General refers the mat ter to the Justice Department which is empowered to go into a United States District Court and ask for a cease and desist order against the mailer. If he violates the order he is automatically held in contempt of court.” It took the Congressman five years to get the law on the books. It all start ed when his son became a target of smut advertisers after answering an advertisement offering a packet of for eign postage stamps Mr. Cunningham thought that he had a right, as a par ent, to request that his child’s name be removed from the mailing lists which the smut advertisers had mir- chased. And we think most parents will agree. The law will be only as effective as i| the use made of it by parents- It may be that some will cry “censorship,” but no censorship is involved. The fam ily who is willing to have these obscene materials atMresaed'to their chUdrtu may contmne to receive them. Those who want the mail traffjc in sucift» filth stopped have only to make the request of the Post Office Department.
