THE MORNING HERALD, UNIONTOWN, MONDAY, 3, 1939-PAGE 11 Sen. Kennedy Cites Issues Congress (Continued from Page One' ciated Press, I have prepared a summary of the issues which might claim the attention of the incoming Congress. Only a few can be briefly mentioned in this space, but unfortunately there are no short and easy answers for our loss of prestige abroad, our battle for the minds uncommitted nations, our weakening alliances. There are no panaceas for our staggering military budgets, our inflationary perils, our increasing cost of living, our chronic unemployment areas, our inadequate housing, the distress of the family farmer. We cannot end with mere words or wishing continued discrimination on account of race, the gradual depletion of our natural resources, or our critical shortage of scientists, engineers and educational facilities.

So much needs to he done that this Congress and the nation cannot afford less than a truly notable record of achievement. FOREIGN POLICY AND DK- FENSE. These issues, in our life- time, must remain paramount. The year 1959 is a time for re appraisal of our basic policies to ward Latin America, India, our allies and uncommitted nations of the world. India, which has within its boundaries 40 per cent of the uncommitted people of the world and is the showcase of the democratic in Asia, grows more important as China moves ahead.

Congress must pass a loan and aid program which will prevent it from failing in its program to achieve self-sufficiency under its second five-year plan.

Third, we need an amendment to the Fair Labor Standards Act increasing minimum wages and extending the coverage of the act. The last amendment to the which I helped sponsor, raised the minimum wage to one dollar per hour. Since then the cost of living has increased approximate ly 20 per cent, average productivity has increased at least as much, and average wages have see him Red Leader Visits U.S. On (Continued from Page One) off a Scandinavian airliner in New York. would he a pleasure to Charles Sumey, Uniontown missionaries, recently returned from such a place.

It is French Equatorial Africa where the mere often hovers around 110 in the shade. The Sumeys told about life in the fabulous land yesterday morning in the First Brethren Church, Union and Bryan Uniontown. magazine articles and books like John Gunther's have given many Americans the idea that the old Africa is gone but that's not the missionaries say. Still Uncivilized In the part of Africa where the Sumeys are stationed, the natives never heard of television or the atomic bomb. They live like their ancestors did thousands of years ago'-worshiping gods and idols, putting curses on their enemies and making offerings to the departed spirits.

The missionaries say they have never heard of a native in the area where they are stationed dying of appendicitis. Polio cases are almost as rare. Malaria, sleeping sickness and parasites cause most of the deaths. Poison also accounts for a number of deaths. Natives do away with their enemies by stabbing them with sharp sticks dipped in poison or by leaving sharp stones, which have been impregnated with poison, in the paths where the enemies are apt to walk.

Since the natives go barefoot, it is an easy matter to poison them that way. The Sumeys have never been attacked or even menaced by natives. But, they say, a number of whites have been assaulted by blacks in Brazzaville, capital of French Equatorial Africa, and in some of the other cities. The natives would like to oust the white man from Africa but they have no grievance against missionaries, the Rev. Mr.

Sumey says. But no one knows how long this setup may last. An anti-missionary crusade might be launched any time. A number of the native leaders have had contact with communism and it is obvious that unrest in French Equatorial Africa would play right into the hands of Soviet Russia. People water their mouths when the Sumeys describe the big buffalo steaks they have at every meal.

realize how sickening buffalo meat can get if you have to eat it three times a Mrs. Sumey says. Meal lose At Hand When they need meat, the meys need not go far. Their area is populated with all kinds of big lions, buffaloes, hippos and leopards. They keep the meat they shoot in a kerosene-operated refrigerator.

They raise some of their own vegetables but the yield is far below what it would be in. say. Fayette County because of the acidity of the African soil However, they are able to do what no Fayette County farmer is able to two gardens a year. One grows during the rainy through and the other during the day to June. Cotton and peanuts grow in the area where the Sumeys are stationed.

And recently the French government planted some coffee trees. The missionaries estimate that slide, it is usually because a lot of pressure has been put on them by. their relatives and friends. A number of native Christians have been killed because they refused to go back to the old ways. Many native pastors have been developed and would be able to take over if all white missionaries were eventually ousted from ttie The Rev.

Mr. Sumey is a native of Uniontown; his wife came here as a child from Altoona. He served in the U.S. Navy during World War II. After the war, he and his wife, who like him felt called to do missionary work, attended Philadelphia School of the Bible together.

Later he attended Grace Seminary at Winona Lake, and served as pastor of Brethren churches in Sidney, Ind and Washington, Pa. military and defense support purposes and aid for economic growth. As weapons and defense systems become obsolete they must be discarded, regardless of the cost they initially represented. New missiles and weapons, nuclear-powered aircraft and space from moving, concealed or submerged must replace less costly but more vulnerable weapons and their development must be accelerated. The emphasis should not be on the armament we can afford but on the striking power we cannot afford to lack.

LABOR. Three major changes in our labor laws are in prospect. First, this country needs an effective labor-management reform law.

The initialTi- fort in the Senate in 1959 will be I a preliminary skirmish in which liberal forces of both parties will seek to amend Senate Rule 22. the rule permitting legislation to be filibustered to death.

Whether or not the rule is amended. 1 believe the Congress will adopt an antidynamiting bill which Sen.

This bill would make the bombing of places of worship, schools, business establishments and other buildings a violation of federal law, permitting the Federal Bureau of Investigation to investigate these acts of terrorism. FARM. The existing farm legislation must be replaced by a solid program designed to save our soil, save our water and save our croplands for the years ahead.

Credit facilities should be made more easily available to the farmer, milk and dairy programs suggested by the dairy farming industry should be initiated, the costly and unfair acreage reserve should be abandoned but the soil conservation reserve maintained, and we should embark on a program which will bring the farmer parity of income with other groups At the same time we must encourage increased consumption at home of farm products and increased exports abroad. DOMESTIC ECONOMIC PROBLEMS. The fears of a depression have boon replaced to a great extent by concern over inflation and About 400 New York policemen and government security agents guarded every step as he arrived at New Idlewild Airport at 5:11 a.m., nearly two hours ahead of schedule. A dozen Hungarian refugee Freedom Fighters, waving anti-Communist placards, shouted and as he left by police-escorted limousine for Washington. The strict security precautions prevented any further demonstrations.

Later, the demonstrators loaded into three automobiles and left for Washington, where they said they planned to picket various locations where Mikoyan might appear. Taking Four State Department officials said Eisenhower would be happy to meet with Mikoyan even though his visitor has not yet requested a White House appointment. Any Eisenhower-Mikoyan talk, however, may delayed until the Soviet leader returns from a cross-country tour of about 10 days, during which he will several other American cities In a jovial mood, Mikoyan brought what he called the Soviets New 5 eai message of and to the American people and their leaders.
