THE SUNDAY SCHOOL WORKER
One of the unsung heroes in every community is
the Sunday School or Bible School teacher, who often
devotes much of his time, over a long period of years,
to his church and his Sunday or Bible School without
compensation.
These teachers often go to training schools, attend
various organizational meetings and help with various
forms of church work. In addition, they regularly spend
several hours a week preparing for, and teaching, their
Sunday School or Bible School.
We have many who turn in this time consistently,
over the years, as a contribution to the religious life of
their community and'as an investment in the country’s
youth. . .
The church school worker and teacher is oiten a
dedicated person, who has little free time but who
gives freely of what he has and expects no reward. To
everyone, of everv faith, we offer a seldom-voiced and
respectful appreciation of their services, in an effort
to make this a better community and a better world._

Stevenson Goes After
‘Old Folks’ Vote in
California Primary
Adlai Stevenson has gone after
the “old folks” vote in California,
charging the Eisenhower Admin
istration with neglecting the needs
of the nation’s senior citizens and
defending his own record on pen
sions.
And Sen. Kefauver has thrown
Stevenson’s “mud-slinging” accu
sations back at him, saying that
Stevenson “has been making per
sonal and unfounded attacks on
me" for months.
The two men are battling to win
California’s 68 Democratic Na
tional Convention votes in next
Tuesday’s primary.

Stevenson Wins
22 of Flor,ida^s 28
Convention .Votes
Ry THE ASSOf TATED PRESS
Sen. Estes Kefauver, fighting to
regain ground lost in his Florida
primary defeat, campaigned at
full throttle today in an effort to
whip Adlai Stevenson in Califor
nia’s climactic Democratic presi
dential primary’.
Stevenson obviously was buoyed
by his Florida victory over Kefau
ver—narrow as it was—as he, too,
pushed a drive for* votes in the
California primary next Tuesday.
The rival candidates quickly re
sumed their in-fighting. Kefauver
blamed his Florida defeat on sup
port given Stevenson by what he
called “Talmadge - type” politi
cians. Stevenson retorted that Ke
fauver was a “sore loser” and ac
cused his opponent of “mud sling
ing.”
The California primary is a
winner-take-all proposition, with
68 convention votes as the jackpot
prize. It also is the last direct Ke
fauver-Stevenson test before the
Democratic Nominating Conven
I tion in August.
Kefauver, ranging the San Di
! ego area Wednesday, flung at Ste
venson the old age pension and
“bossism” issues he used in Flor
ida, where Stevenson won a slim
popular vote majority, but pocket
ed 22 of the state’s 28 national
convention votes.
With only 23 of Florida’s 1,778
precincts unreported, Stevenson
had 221,718 votes to 209,447 for
Kefauver—an edge of slightly
more than 12,000.
Moscow Invitation to
Gen. Twining May Start
Series of Exchange Visits
WASHINGTON, OP—Some in
formed U.S. officials believe Mos
cow will follow up its successful
bid to Gen. Nathan F. Twining
with invitations to other Ameri
can military leaders to visit in
Russia.
Members of the Soviet high
command may be asked to come
to the United States in return.
Secretary of the Air Force Don
ald A. Quarles announced yester
day that “with the authorization
of the President” Twining had ac
cepted an invitation to a Soviet
Aviation Day celebration June 24.
Twining, Air Force chief of staff,
will be accompanied by several
subordinate officers.
Quarles said the decision to ac
cept had been approved also by
Secretary of Defense Wilson and
Secretary of State Dulles, who is
presently on a 10-day vacation.
Thus ended half a dozen days of
speculation and behind the scenes
uncertainty. Eisenhower’s taking
personal responsibility for the de
cision indicated the seriousness he
and his chief advisers attached
to it.
