THE INDISPENSABLE SUPPORTS (We believe that we are witnessing a current rebirth of national spirit, of national consciousness, in short, of Patriotism. To remind us of the things our forebearers taught us about love of country', we present this article, written by the Director of the Federal Bureau of Investigation, Mr. John Edgar Hoover. — Ed.) This nation was barn of faith. The handful of men who struggled through long and bitter years of war to gain our freedom had unquenchable faith. The dedicated little group who joined together to fix in place the soaring rafters of our Republic built firmly on a foundation of faith. For the Founding Fathers were blessed with a vigorous; indomitable, all-encompassing belief in God: That belief permeated their written words. It suffused their thought. It shone forth in their speech. Listen to Patrick Henry: "There is a just God who presides over the destinies of nations, and who will raise up friends to fight our battles for us."

Witness the vows of Thomas Jefferson: "I have sworn upon the altar of God, eternal hostility against every form of tyranny over the mind of mar.."

Above all, note these significant statements in the final words of advice which George Washington gave the people whom he had served so faithfully for forty-five years: "Of all the dispositions and habits lge d to nolitical prosperity, RELIGION and iVIOR11.1.1::-1sibie supports. Lo in Would man claim the tributes 01 PATTSJOTISVI„ who sh:mi.:1 labor to subvert these great pillars of inenan happiness, these firmest props of the duties of men and citizens . . . And let us with caution indulge the supposition that morality can be maintained without religion

THREE THINGS "I know three things must never be To keep a nation strong and free; One is a hearthstone bright and dear, With busy, happy loved ones near; One is a ready heart and hand To love and serve and keep the land; One is a worn and beaten way To where the people go to pray; As long as these are kept alive, Nation and people will survive.

God keep them always everywhere — The hearth, the flag, the place of prayer."

Whatever may be conceded to the influence of refined education on minds of peculiar structure, reason and experience both forbid us to expect that national morality can prevail in exclusion of religious principle."

In every area of the earth today, powerful atheistic forces are striving to destroy belief in God, to eliminate every form of worship of God, to wipe out the concept of morality which is derived from Judaic-Christian thought and belief. In many areas, the attack on religion is direct and brutal. In areas of the world yet remaining free, the attack is more artful. Communist totalitarians know that as long as Americans remain true to the magnificent moral and spiritual principles on which this greatest of all republics was founded, our nation will stand as an unbreathable bulwark in the planned path of communist world conquest. It is, therefore, easy to understand why the prononents of absolute materialism, in the words of Washington, "labor to subvert p illars of human happiness, ftesc "lest nrons of the duties of Ten an_ci o i tizens" -- religion and morality.

Adulation of the Material Today subtle forces seek to secularize whole bodies of citizens — to substitute adulation of the material for worship of

the spiritual. The men promoting such forces are hopeful that time is on their side and that, with unceasing effort and Machiavellian strategems, vast numbers of Americans can be broken from their braditional spiritual moorings and set adrift in a secular sea. They know that the human creature who is without spiritual resources and the moral scruples which stem from religious training and belief can, with greater ease, be led into the arid desert of communism.

"Those people who are not governed

by God will be ruled by tyrants."

The precedin g thought, attributed to William Penn, expresses unequivocal fact. When man transgresses the immutable laws of God, he opens the door to his own enslavement. Communist man does more than transgress those laws; he denies their existence. Indeed, the denial of God is a basic element at this evil philosophy. Communism's first premise is, simply: There is no God. And other basic ideas of this totalitarian tyranny are in keeping with that denial: There is no soul. Body is all.

Nature is all. Man is merely a fortuitous product of the ceaseless interaction of clenmi2al and physical elements. He differs only in degree and not in essence from the beast in the field and the stone kicked from the path.

But communism does not stop with atheistic theory. As expressed by Marx, Engels, and Lenin, it teaches that all religions are false and harmful and must be destroyed. It goes even further.

It outlaws traditional morality. It teaches that existing moral codes derived from supernatural concepts are false. The Ten Commendments become meaningless. Absolute principles of right and wrong are thrown into discard. Communism substitutes a brutal and end-justifies-the-mean s code which holds that it is entirely moral to steal, lie, torture or kill if such actions tend to promote the advance of corn-

Fraternally yours, Mrs. John Susen )O( CESKY P•APOR LODGE NO. 24 C CLONE Dear Sisters and Brothers, It's high time for me to write a note.

Time slips by so- fast and I almost forgot to announce teat our regular meeting will be here again, that is, the second Sunday of March, the 10th, at 1:30 pan.

I would like to make a correction in my last report: in listing the members of the sink committee I had a name wrong; it should have been Sister and Brother Frank Macek for the Seaton community. Tnis couple will report for their area. I am sorry that I did 'this, and hope it doesn't happen again.

The lodge thanked Brother Ben Fobcik and Brother E. J. Marek for their nice report on their audit of the lodge books. This is a big task and they did a real tine job.

The Lodge also wants to thank Brother and Sister Dan Hoelcher, the hall managers, for the swell job they have (lure throughout the year. We all know that it takes a lot of work to keep up a hall in proper condition, and to put up wit the public.

Well, I must run and mail this.

Funeral services were held February 7th at 9:15 a.m. from St. Joseph's Catholic Church, with the Rev. Emil Vinklarek officiating.

Interment was in the Moulton Catholic Cemetery.

May our departed Brother rest in peace.

Frank Jilek Jr., Jim Ellin, Frank C. Wagner, Resolution Committee --- ) 0 ) THE THIRTEENTH DAY Ken McMorrough In the heart of San Antonio, Texas, meshed between tall buildings and broad avenues stand the remains of an ancient memorial; the chapel of the mission San Antonio de Valero, better known to Texans and the world as the Alamo. For it was here on March 6, 1836 that 186 brave men, under the command of Colonels Jim Bowie, David Crockett, and William Travis, chose to die rather than to submit to the reign o a totalitarian government. Their story tells of much more than just a battle; it is a heroic epic Hof valor, sacrifice, and tragedy.

On February 23, 1836, the Mexican dictator Antonio Lopez de Santa Arn::: general and self-styled "Napciean of tne West," marched into the city of Bexar (San Antonio) at the head of his gothic army. He had come to revenge the humiliating defeat that his brother-in-

All the defenders died fighting, including Bowie on his sick bed. The Texans' dead numbered 186, as compared to the Mexican losses of nearly 1600.

Santa Anna himself rode into the mission and asked to be shown thel bodies of Travis, Bowie, and Crockett, "the bravest of the brave." Then this! self-appointed god, in an atheistic move to deride their sacrifice, ordered that the bodies of the Alamo defenders be massed in the mission square and burned But the cause ror winch they had died would not be consumed by the fire,' rather, it would grow in the flames and spread across Texas to shatter the evening stillness and reverberate from the plains of San Jacinto just six weeks later. For these men had given Texas thirteen precious days in which to organize its defenses and these thirteen days of glory were to mean the difference between victory and defeat.

Wednesday, March 6, 1963 LONELINESS

Loneliness is a neglect of the sell, while solitude is the prerequisite of selfdiscovery. Loneliness is the sym ptom of city for growth. We should never shrink from being alone at times, for when we are alone, and a only then, do we reflect upon existence and receive life. Loneliness is a defeat, but solitude is a triumph, for it opens the gate toward a mature character and social responsibility.

On March 6, of this year, to mark the 127th anniversary of the fall of this fortress, a wreath was placed at the base of the 1,1amo Cenotaph. It is located in front of the Alamo, on the Plaza.

Dedicated to 7aT1ant heroes of the Alamo, the theme of the memorial is the spirit of sacrifice represented on the south shaft by an idealistic figure rising twenty-three feet from the long, sloping capstone emblematic of the tomb. The east and west ledges of the twenty-foot-long monolithic slab are decorated with background panels of eight figures in low relief, glorifying 111( Alamo heroes. Their names are carvc I below the panels. The heroic statues o the four commanders of the fort appear on the east and west panels. On the north side, symbolizing the State of Texas, appears a feminine figure, holding the shields of the United States and Texas. And finally, just above the names of the 186 dead, there appears this fitting epitaph: "They chose never to surrender nor

HERE IS THE ENGINEERS' TRINITY RIVER PLAN (Following is a summary of the comprehensive survey report of the Trinity River and its tributaries which was prepared by the Technical Liaison Branch of the Southwestern Division of the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers.)

A $900,000,000 comprehensive plan for development of water resources of the Trinity River basin in Texas for navigation, flood control, water supply and related purposes has been recommended to the chief of U. S. Army Engineers in Washington, D.C., by the Southwestern Division engineer, U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, Brig. Gen. Carroll H. Dunn.

The plan recommends construction of: 1. A multiple-purpose channel for barge navigation and flood control extending along the Trinity River from the Houston snip channel in Galveston Bay to Fort Worth.

2. A system of locks and dams, the dams to provide slackwater pools for navigation and the locks to lift and lower vessel traffic between the pools.

3. Four new dams and reservoirs -Laweview, Tennessee Colony, Aubrey and Roanoke â&#x20AC;&#x201D; and modifications to the existing Grapevine and Garza-Little Elm Reservoirs.

4. Five local flood protection projects, one each to be located at Liberty, Garland and Fort Worth and two at Dallas.

The report proposes a navigation channel 12 feet deep and 150 feet wide from Dallas to the Texas Gulf Coast and a 12-foot-deep Channel, 125 feet wide, between Dallas and Fort Worth.

The channel would begin at the Houston ship channel, near Red Fish Bar in Galveston Bay, follow an existing chan nel to Liberty, then traverse the general course of the Trinity River to the Riverside Drive bridge in Fort Worth, a total distance of about 370 miles. Spur channels would extend to turning basins at Dallas and Fort Worth. The channel would pass through the proposed Wallisville, Livingston and Tennessee Colony Reservoirs.

DINING OUT OF TRIP ABROAD If you are planning to go abroad, American Express suggests making dining out one of the highlights of your trip. Restaurant eating in a foreign country can be a delightful adventure if you sample some of the regional food specialties wherever you go.

The heritage of every country is reflected in its cuisine. Familiarity with national dishes and distinctive ways of serving them is one of the things that makes travel abroad rewarding. Every country has its traditional delicacies, although French, Italian and Chinese cuisines are generally regarded as the greatest by leading culinary authorities.

Here are a few tips on becoming an epicure, as well as an international traveler: 1. Ask the hotel concierge to recom mend several good retaucants in the price rairge you are interested in.

2. Don't hesitate to ask the waiter what the specialities of the house are.

Also what wines he recommends to accompany the dishes.

3. Check on the dining hcurS since they vary in different countries.

4. Don't ex pect instant service — many dishes are cooked, to order.

5. Make it a hobby to "collect" internationally known restaurants or off-beat bistros where ancient traditions flourish.

FARMERS: LITTLE CHANGE IN GRAIN PLANS The U. S. Department of Agriculture told a meeting of newspaper, magazine .dan radio farm reporters recently that Congress may be asked to consider a feed grain program for 1964 much like the one in force for 1962 and 1963. rtn autnomative source, wno asked that his name not be used, said there will likely be substantial participation by farmers in the 1963 program.

The 1963 program provides for payments to farmers who reduce their plantings of grain sorghum, corn or barley, with all interchangable, in exchange for a direct payment of about 18 cents a bushel and a government price support loan.
