according to "the more stable gold standard." since July. 1937. the rubie's value has been’ calculated in terms oi the dollar.

This does not mean. however, that Russia is going on a true gold standard. There is no indication that the ruble will be freely con- vertible into gold internally.

"The currency reform of the U. - s.s.R... carried out in December. 1931. eradicated the aftermath of the second World War in currency circulation and restored the full value of the soviet ruble." the statement said.

The new decree cuts prices from eight to so per cent on a large number of consumer goods.

Revaluation of the Russian ruble likely will have no effect on Rus- sian-Oahadian trade. a government financial expert said.

01'I‘AWA. Feb. 27 — (CP) -- ranium, or even hydrogen atomic bombs, cannot by themselves win a war, Gen. A. G.I... McNaughton announced. These weapons have vast power. but they are only "fully effective" in a surprise attack on concentrated targets.

Gen. McNaughton, Canadian representative on the United Na- tions atomic energy commission, discounted the efficiency of nu- clear explosions when used against an army deployed in the field or against a naval force in "open bat- tle order.” '

Powerful as they are, atomic weapons do not replace conven- tional srmsments by land and see. he told the Canadian club of Ot- tawa. '

Atomic bombs should be most feared when unsuspecting people are concentrated in great cities. 01.’ when harbors are congested with unwarned shipping, or in closely- devcioped manufacturing areas.

“in conscqugace. what we have most to dread is the secret accura- ulation in hostile hands of stocks of these bombs." Russia's ability to produce a nuclear explosion in- creased thc world's anxiety.

first to use the bomb.‘f ,

Writing in his diocesan leaflet, Dr. Garbett said that if the United states found itself unable to take the initiative in opening new neg- otiations with Russia. Britain should do so as she would be the first victim of an atom war and her interest in .eaching agreement was "even greater than that of the United states."

“Agreement or destruction is the glee before us." the Archbishop

d. "It is now uncertain if the hil- man race will be granted many more years for amendment. The making and use of the atomic bomb suddenly brought home to man- kind that it now possessed the means by which it could commit race suicide.

"The hydrogen bomb. if it is ever made, will be far more destructive than the bombs which destroyed two Japanese cities . . ."

"But these are weapons utterly devilish: Even to contemplate their use proves to what depths of tie- grailation human nature can sink.

“We are deceiving ourselves if we imagine that their appalling de- structiveness will prevent their use. Hate will lead a nation to any lengths in its passionate desire to wipe out its enemy," Dr. Garbett wrote.

"But perhaps even more danger- ous than hate is the motive of fear: For a nation, dreading that a hos- tile state mlght first employ it, might use the bomb in the hope that it would thereby svert its own destruction.

“If. therefore, these bombs are made. hate and fear will almost certainly lead to their use, and within a few hours the civilization which we know would be shattered into ruins . . ."

"Another attempt should be made on the highest level to reach an agreement with Russia. It is of ‘secondary importance whether this attempt is made direct through the heads ‘of states or through the United Nations.

“So for Russia had vetoed an at- tempts at agreement. This should not, however, be sufficient reason to refuse to reopen negotiations. It is worth risking a rebuff when the fate of the human race is stake. This is a plain christian duty.” "

couraged, beaten individuals is offered here by H. O. Mattern. He and his wife. Mary. make a great team. While traveling extensively for business reasons, they both work hard at their avocation--to to help people solve their probienls and find happiness with God's help.

Sometime in everyone’s experi- ence the circumstances of life seem to King up on ‘em . . . one’s whole structure just caves in. Life really kicked me solidly tho taethbackin mo. so much A that I decided that suicide was the only answer.

With my business gone, family ties broken. and eight cents in my pocket, I remember staggering blindly into an open field. The next few moments remain a blurred memory. I was lying on the ground, in agony, when somehow the images of moon and stars pene- trated my consciousness.

What then occurred was a deep spiritual experience. I looked into the sky, and every fiber in me went out "with a fervid prayer. “God, if you will help me now, ever afterward I will my to help men live again who are down and out." I suddenly felt reborn. This spiritual experience on top of bit- ter despair and disillusion-mer.t see ’ to cleanse my soul. Grate- ful, I set out to fulfill my promise.

Faith Greatest Anet

No goal is more intangible than one where you simply try to help other people. After getting my own life on firm footing, I directed my chief efforts toward the down-and- outers; those people who are will- ing to help themselves. but who need someone to assist them in charting their course.

My greatcst asset during these years of building a. new life was my continuing faith in God. together with the faith that any- one who will believe in himself can accomplish al-ivy goal. Here is an incident, one of many I have ex- perienced, which reveals how such faith in self and God can perform miracles.

one day back in 1.946 I was sit- ting in an office waiting room. thumbing through, for about the

I; thousandth time. the book, “Your

Key to Happiness." Soon I noticed that the secretary at the desk was gazing intently at the book.

“Are you interested in this book?’ I finally asked her with a friendly smile.

she nodded. “Yes, in the title." “I’ll be glad to set you I 00917." I replied.

She murmured something about it being too much trouble. Then. an interruption occurred. and I am sure she forgot the whole con- versation.

But I didn't forget it. That night 1 marked out several sections, and mailed the book to this secretary.

law Her Again

some months later I visited this same office again. The secretary, whom I'll call Joan Prescott, re- cognised me at once. "Please, Mr. Mattern." she said. "1 must see you tonight. I must talk to you."

I invited her to have dinner with my wife and me. but she preferred instead to have us both come to her arpartment. I noticed that she was under considerable tension.

when Mary and I 'l1'l'lVed at Joan Prescott's apartment, we had hardly seated ourselves in her small living room before she was moving about restiessly, flourish- ing a copy of the book, "Your Key to Happiness."

"What you wrote here in the front of the book. do you really mean that by simply believing hard enough, the impossible can come
