Bible Comment: , i ■!i ■ i is.i 111 1 in.ii Ideal of Church-Home Still Lives V t .. TE/HEN we look back on the ** origins of the Christian church, we are reminded that the churches, in various places where the missionary journeys of Paul and others led to their establishment, were in the homes of the disciples. Saint Paul, in greeting Pris cilla and Aquila, says, “Likewise greet the church that is in the house.” A church could not very well be maintained in a home with out the family being a part of it, and family religion is strongly exemplified in the experiences of these early Christians. The home and family, there fore, were of great importance in the beginnings of the Chris tian church. Their status sug gests very clearly what ought to be the relationship between the church and the home, be-, tween Christian belief and prac tice and family life, at all times, and in all places. However, one must realize without any undue pessimism that in most, if not in all, com munities today the facts and conditions regarding church and home are very different from those that the New Testament records. In the great multitude of cases, such strictly Christian homes Are perhaps the exception, even where there is profession of Christian faith. To mention one example: For good or bad, the j rule of parents in the home is no longer what it was in those early Christian homes. And present-day conditions create new difficulties, as fam ilies are not often together as they once were, i But the ideal. Implicit in Christian faith and teaching, and in the close association of home and church in the days of early Christianity, still remains.

T N CONSIDERING the importance 1 of Indochina to the United States, two premises must be assumed. The first is that whether we like it or not, this country is today looked to for world leadership. The second is that we have vital stakes in the Far East for which we have spent billions of dollars and sacrificed thousands of American lives 1 . these stakes are the Philippines. Japan and Korea. We are morally obligated and committed by treaty to preserve their freedom. Therefore the question arises can we as the leader of the free world allow our position te be eroded, piece by piece, by the expansion of either Russian or Chinese Com munist control further into Asia. Undersecretary of State Walter Bedell Smith, puts tt more dra matically “Daze we permit*’ this further expansion, he asks. Our principal allies. Britain and France have even more of a stake. Burma. Malaya, the crown colonies. Singa pore and Hong Kong are the rem nants of a once vast colonial Brit-' ish empire in Asia. Britain also has the Commonwealths of Australia and New Zealand in the Southwest Pacific with which the United States has a mutual defense pact. , While France is giving up its colonial rule in Indochina, her huge investments made there during some 90 years are perhaps Safe from expropriation Indochina is a rich, almost un tapped nation as to natural re sources Indochina w the ‘Tice bowl* of the orient and the rice crop covers approximately 3 out of 4 acres cultivated Should this rich source of food and natural resources disappear behind the iron curtain, the econp my and the peoples of Japan, the Philippines and Korea would suffer. thin 2,000,000 likely would go. But despite the tremendous world stakes on the block in Indochina, there is still some foot-dragging as between Britain. France and the United States in getting together on any acceptable agreement for united action. Thailand., thus far is the only Asian nation which has indicated its willingness to join a collective security pact India is cool and remains neutral Indo nesian sympathies appear headed tpWards communism Burma jp|f Malaya will follow the British lead- Australia and New Zeland may go along So will the Philip pines. But there the united policy es poused by Secretary Dulles and. this administration appears to be stymied by the *‘co - existence” propaganda so appealingly put forth by Moscow, and virtually ac cepted in *lieu of "united action” by Great Britain and France The results of the Geneva con ference boil down to the fact that the western world failed in its objective to eliminate the partition of Korea, and agreed to partition of Indochina were not willing to take the risk of Mos cow co-existence line . . . and thw Moscow bluff worked. . As thfa writer sees the picture in the Far East now, the stalemate- in Korea wifi remain unless the USA is willing to reopen the war there on its own. and despite Gen. Van Fleet’s recommendation thaL we do just that, we will NOT do so unless Red China’s violations ot the truce become so flagrant we can no longer remain passive and keep our self-respect in the eyes of the world and particularly to* the eyes of Asians. Certainly our prospects tor peace have not been bettered, either by the feuse in Korea or in Indochina^ Secretary Dulles has been in favor From a strategic standpoint, In dochina lies across the most direct route, both sea and air. between the Pacific and south Asia. There is an almost unanimity of opinion among those best qualified h> judge in our state department that (1) Red China will seek to overrun all of Indochina, and, (2) if Indochina falls, then Thailand. Burma, the Malay peninsula and the Republic of Indonesia wifi be next in line, of erosion. This would mean 145.4 million more people swallowed be hind the iron curtain Indo china. 29 million; Thailand, 18.3 million; Republic of Indonesia, 78 million; Burma, 17 million; Malay stales, 2.1 million and Singapore _ 1 million.

He haw been forced to accept a policy of appeasement which may cost thiw country dearly. Mr Dulles known as do many here in W that all Is not well behind the curtain, that the western world haw appeased when Communist Russia and China may be at their weakest point both by over-extension by internal revolt. He admits plan of united action or massive- retaliation might involve seriouw risks. “But these risks," he says, "are- far less than those which will facqr- us a few years from nqjy, if we dare not be resolute today . . . sometimes it is necessary to take- risks to win peace just as it in necessary to take risks to win w ? victory. The chances for peace are usually bettered by letting a po tential aggressor know in advanoe- where his aggression oonld lei him.” Editor’s note—the next article wifi deal with the individual stake of every American in the Indo- chidtsc war and the situation in the Far £»■* sister, Mrs. H.
