President Eisenhower Speaks To The Congress And The American People Not only did the Congress hear and see the President in his annual message to the 86th Congress, but the American people at large through modern news distributing facilities also had this distinct honor. Just from a journey around the globe touching four continents, it was but natural that the kickoff in this epochal address would stem from those impressions and inspirations gained from abroad while he touched every vital base having to do with sentiments, relations, industry, education, economics, foreign and domestic policy and budget balancing. Possibly the loudest applause rang from his references to the nation's peace, the move to balance the budget and those assurances that every citizen should be given equal protection under the laws of the land. At the outset, the President asked the Democratic controled Congress to cease "wrangling" with his administration and work together with him to achieve the goals of peace in the world and unprecedented prosperity at home. In a message containing 7,200 words, the President thusly laid down the blueprint by which he would carry through the last year of his occupancy in the White House. He predicted that the year 1960 "promises to be the most prosperous year in our history, with the government winding up the fiscal, year next June with a 200-million-dollar surplus." He observed that a surplus cannot be contended while the nation was in debt. This session convening on the heels of a long steel strike did not bring forth from the President any new labor legislation, but he said that he intends as a consequence of the long steel dispute "to encourage regular discussions between management and labor outside the bargaining table" in order to protect the public interests. He referred to the farm law as being "woefully out of date, ineffective and expensive" and urged the enactment of legislation that would curb costly surpluses and achieve higher net farm incomes. He also received wide applause when he urged Civil Rights legislation, including the right to vote guarantees. One encouraging feature on the peace front was that reference to the Soviets, whose recent behavior pointed to the opening of a somewhat less strained period. The ringing appeal of the President in his message to the Congress to "work with me" received the rousing applause of the Congressional chamber which bespoke that the majority was with the program. Fine, fit and fettle, the President, faces one of the critical periods in American history, which he himself realizes that he devote his "full energies." He comes to this front with his prestige unabated, his popularity still at high tide and the deep respect of the whole Congress, regardless of party affiliation. He threw the law makers on their challenge and left the responsibility of the nation's security up to those whose job it will be to steer the destinies of the new world that the old might catch the spirit and the determination so essential to a lasting peace over the world and domestic tranquility and human tolerance here at home.

TOUGH SADDLE By MATT STUART By Matt Stuart, 1959; from the Dodd, Mead & Co. noval; distributed by King Features Syndicate. ON THE PORCH of the Double Diamond ranchhouse, Jonas Dalmar occupied a round-backed chair padded with funny sacks while he chewed on a cigar and laid his Mack, hard gaze across the heat-misted sweep of the plain to the smoky blue outline of the Saddleback Hills. Up there, he knew that even during this hot, dry fag end of Indian summer, water ran cold and sweet in Rosebud Canyon and a number of lesser clefts in the hill flank. Up there, too, at the extreme crest, frost would have already touched and made the air fine and great, and in the hill meadows cattle grazed and grew fat. But not his cattle. Not yet. However, they would be his, one of these days, when all the necessary preliminaries had been taken care of. Of these, the most immediate one was locating his on Frank and getting him back home before he spread some kind of mischief, before he talked where he shouldn't. The possibility of this had begun to worry Jonas Dalmar. At first he'd been inclined to scoff at any idea of Frank turning against his own father, his own outfit. But since listening to Bardo's flatly expressed opinions on the matter, he wasn't so sure. He had tried to figure what Frank's real intentions might be, where he could have gone. In the end. Bardo Sampson's opinion had made the most sense—that so long as Frank had taken blankets and grub, he would be holed up in a camp somewhere, most likely in the Saddlebacks, where good water was handy. If this be so, then it was only a matter of time before he would show again. Either, as his fit of sulks wore off, he'd get sick of being alone, of sleeping on the ground and eating out of a frying pan and so come sneaking back to more comfortable quarters and decent cooking—either that, or Wiley Goss would locate him and bring him home. Out on the sun-razed run of the plain a lift of dust showed, and Jonas Dalmar put his glance on this and held it so. As the tawny smudge approached, under it showed a pair of riders Jonas Dalmar gave a grunt of satisfaction. Coming In front that direction, the two riders would, in all likelihood, be Frank and Wiley Goss. That Wiley Goss! More animal than human, almost, Dalmar mused with satisfaction. Trail and sign wise and without vestige of scruple or conscience. So long as he was paid for it, he did whatever he was told to do, whether it be running a harmless errand, or going out and killing a man. Well, he'd left last night to find Frank and bring him back home, and here he was already with the chore taken care of. As for Frank, Jonas Dalmar decided, he'd damn well get a talking to, he'd date time from. Dalmar's cigar had gone dead, and ho used up three matches before ho got it going well again. Now, with the smoke rolling rich and strong across his lips, he had another look at the approaching riders and saw that instead of two horses, there were three. And the third horse was at lead, with something tied across the saddle. Dalmar pushed up from his chair, stepped to the edge of the porch for a better look. What he saw brought him no satisfaction. Neither of the riders was Wiley Goss, or Frank either. Furthermore, one of the ridden horses was the buckskin that was Link Asbell's favorite, and the other a long legged roan Tom Grant was partial to. Jonas Dalmar turn his head and lifted a thin yell. "Bardo! Sage! Get out here!" Bardo Sampson and Sage Wingo came over from the bunkhouse. Dalmar pointed. "How do you see it?" Bardo Sampson's heavy lids half veiled his protuberant eyes as he stared. Then he spat and swore. "That's Asbell and Tom Grant! What they got on the horse they're leadin'?" "Bad news," Sage Wingo said. "That's the dun horse Wiley Goss rode out on last night!" Jonas Dalmar took his half smoked cigar from his lips and threw it aside with a hard jerk of his arm. "Sage," he droned, "you get out of sight. And with a gun!" Sage Wingo went quickly back to the bunkhouse, then reappeared with a rifle in his hand and dodged quickly in back of the windmill tower. Coming in on Double Diamond, riding nigh and watchful in his saddle, Link Asbell glimpsed the scurrying figure of Sage Wingo. "You see that Tom?" he asked. "I saw." Tom Grant answered briefly. "You'll yet be glad I came along." "Hell!" exploded Asbell mildly, "I am glad. I've been glad from the minute you suggested it. If I made like to hold you off it was only because I didn't want to saddle you with any of my troubles." "We'll watch this—and everybody—close," Tom Grant said. They rode up to the ranchhouse, straight to where Jonas Dalmar and Bardo Sampson stood. Asbell loosed the lead rope of the dun and tossed it down. "Yours, Dalmar," he said bleakly. Jonas Dalmar stared at the dun and its burden, jarred out of his usual sneering, cock-sure aplomb, and he found voice somewhat stupidly. "Goss—he's dead?" "What do you think?" Asbell retorted. "Who—killed him?" "I did." "For what reason?" "The best of reasons. Before he could kill me like he did Packy Lane and like he tried to do with Nels Madison. You should know all about that Dalmar." "You're talking crazy," Dalmar said. "I don't know anything about it." "That's not the way Frank tells it," Asbell said. "Frank!" Jonas Dalmar went very still of a moment Then: "What about Frank? Where" Is he?" "Where he'll be well taken care of. Goss made quite a try at killing him, but didn't quite succeed. Fine business, Dalmar— sending a killer out after your own son. Well, you've overplayed your hand all around. You can forget that cattle gather you've had going on over by Tin Cup Wells. You're not moving any of that beef into the Saddlebacks. In fact you're not going to get anywhere with your fine scheme. "By the time Sheriff Hatfield's office gets through with you, you'll be lucky you don't spend the rest of your days behind bars. That could go for you, too, Sampson." Bardo Sampson's heavy lips rolled back and his teeth showed, but he said nothing. He was smart enough to know that right now there wasn't anything to say. Asbell lifted bis reins. "A dry chore, delivering Goss out here. My horse could stand a drink before I start back." He caught Tom Grant's eye and Tom nodded, almost Imperceptibly. "Mine could, too," he said. CHAPTER 29 By MATT STUART By Matt Stuart, 1959; from the Dodd, Mead & Co. noval; distributed by King Features Syndicate. ON THE PORCH of the Double Diamond ranchhouse, Jonas Dalmar occupied a round-backed chair padded with funny sacks while he chewed on a cigar and laid his Mack, hard gaze across the heat-misted sweep of the plain to the smoky blue outline of the Saddleback Hills. Up there, he knew that even during this hot, dry fag end of Indian summer, water ran cold and sweet in Rosebud Canyon and a number of lesser clefts in the hill flank. Up there, too, at the extreme crest, frost would have already touched and made the air fine and great, and in the hill meadows cattle grazed and grew fat. But not his cattle. Not yet. However, they would be his, one of these days, when all the necessary preliminaries had been taken care of. Of these, the most immediate one was locating his on Frank and getting him back home before he spread some kind of mischief, before he talked where he shouldn't. The possibility of this had begun to worry Jonas Dalmar. At first he'd been inclined to scoff at any idea of Frank turning against his own father, his own outfit. But since listening to Bardo's flatly expressed opinions on the matter, he wasn't so sure. He had tried to figure what Frank's real intentions might be, where he could have gone. In the end. Bardo Sampson's opinion had made the most sense—that so long as Frank had taken blankets and grub, he would be holed up in a camp somewhere, most likely in the Saddlebacks, where good water was handy. If this be so, then it was only a matter of time before he would show again. Either, as his fit of sulks wore off, he'd get sick of being alone, of sleeping on the ground and eating out of a frying pan and so come sneaking back to more comfortable quarters and decent cooking—either that, or Wiley Goss would locate him and bring him home. Out on the sun-razed run of the plain a lift of dust showed, and Jonas Dalmar put his glance on this and held it so. As the tawny smudge approached, under it showed a pair of riders Jonas Dalmar gave a grunt of satisfaction. Coming In front that direction, the two riders would, in all likelihood, be Frank and Wiley Goss. That Wiley Goss! More animal than human, almost, Dalmar mused with satisfaction. Trail and sign wise and without vestige of scruple or conscience. So long as he was paid for it, he did whatever he was told to do, whether it be running a harmless errand, or going out and killing a man. Well, he'd left last night to find Frank and bring him back home, and here he was already with the chore taken care of. As for Frank, Jonas Dalmar decided, he'd damn well get a talking to, he'd date time from. Dalmar's cigar had gone dead, and ho used up three matches before ho got it going well again. Now, with the smoke rolling rich and strong across his lips, he had another look at the approaching riders and saw that instead of two horses, there were three. And the third horse was at lead, with something tied across the saddle. Dalmar pushed up from his chair, stepped to the edge of the porch for a better look. What he saw brought him no satisfaction. Neither of the riders was Wiley Goss, or Frank either. Furthermore, one of the ridden horses was the buckskin that was Link Asbell's favorite, and the other a long legged roan Tom Grant was partial to. Jonas Dalmar turn his head and lifted a thin yell. "Bardo! Sage! Get out here!" Bardo Sampson and Sage Wingo came over from the bunkhouse. Dalmar pointed. "How do you see it?" Bardo Sampson's heavy lids half veiled his protuberant eyes as he stared. Then he spat and swore. "That's Asbell and Tom Grant! What they got on the horse they're leadin'?" "Bad news," Sage Wingo said. "That's the dun horse Wiley Goss rode out on last night!" Jonas Dalmar took his half smoked cigar from his lips and threw it aside with a hard jerk of his arm. "Sage," he droned, "you get out of sight. And with a gun!" Sage Wingo went quickly back to the bunkhouse, then reappeared with a rifle in his hand and dodged quickly in back of the windmill tower. Coming in on Double Diamond, riding nigh and watchful in his saddle, Link Asbell glimpsed the scurrying figure of Sage Wingo. "You see that Tom?" he asked. "I saw." Tom Grant answered briefly. "You'll yet be glad I came along." "Hell!" exploded Asbell mildly, "I am glad. I've been glad from the minute you suggested it.

Local UNCF Drive Reaches $14,786 More than $3,000 has been added to the local campaign for the United Negro College Fund since its last report meeting on Dec. 15, it was announced this week by the Rev.

SEEING and SAYING By WILLIAM FOWLKES World's Managing Editor Taking The Moral Stand THE FIGHT FOR full citizenship rights for Negroes must remain based around moral principles and appeal. If was ever so, a prime example being the great-spirituals of the slaves and their immediate descendants, which fought and won many battles for the heart and mind of both owners and oppressors. THIS IDEA IS expressed as a call comes from more of our organizations for continued interest of our preachers in the everyday problems of their parishoners. The time is far spent when a "Sunday job" is sufficient, because of the demands of the community, the state and the nation. There are other related problems of equality in citizenship whose solution is relatively easy before a dedicated ministry's efforts. This is not to say that there are few who spend much of their time aiding community laymen work out the maze of problems, many of which involve race and color It is to declare that more of them are needed in the vineyard where the harvest is great. TIME WAS WHEN some laymen tried to hide behind a misconception that certain requirements of community life were not the business of the preacher, that he should stick to "the cloth."
