FIRST BAPTIST CHl'RCH
Last Sunday's Services
Attendance figures at the vari-
ous meetings were lower than
they had been for several weeks.
However, there was an atmos-
phere of reverence and intense
interest during both worship pe-
riods. Many expressions of bless-
ing and help from the services
were voiced during the day. The f^e he ...
pastor feels that helping Chris- conclude
tians to grow spiritually is one
of the prime functions of the
church; ne has pledged his sin-
eerest efforts to plan and lead
periods of worship each Sunday
which will help people to meet
God for themselves.

C.W. Harder
Congress is now considering
what is termed greatest forward
step for the welfare of indepen-
dent business ever undertaken in
the Republic’s history.
* * *
Senator Edward J. Thye (Rep.,
Minn.) Select Senate Small Bast-
nessCommitteeChairman has In-
troduced Sen-
ate Resolution
No. 213 to
make this com-
mittee a stand-
ing committee.
* * *
In discussing
this proposed!
action a review
of history and
Congressional!
procedure is
enlightening.
* * *
There arelSCommittees known
as Standing Committees, clothed
with legislative authority. In ac-
tual practice, standing commit-
tees decide on proposed legisla-
tion. Unless a bill is approved by
the proper committee, it seldom
has a chance of getting passed.
* * *
There are also other commit-
tees, some permanent in nature,
such as present Senate Small
Business Committee. But these
committees, while they investi-
gate, and make recommenda-
tions, have no legislative autho-
rity.
• * •
For more than four years the
permanent Senate Small Busi-
ness Committee has performed
brilliant work. Shortly after it
was organized as a permanent
committee the Korean War start-
ed, and it is the belief of many
that during the critical period of
material allocations and priori-
ties, American small business
might have succumbed if it had
not been for the outstanding
work of this committee.
♦ , * * •
As a comparison Agriculture
not only is represented by a cab-
inet officer, but also by Standing
(c) Natl until Federation of Independent Bualoaaa
Agriculture Committees in both
the House and Senate. Any bill
affecting farmers must first be
examined, investigated and
voted on by these committees.
* * *
Yet, according to last Com-
merce Department report there
are only 3,700,000 farmers and
farm managers in the nation,,
while the number of small or in-
dependent business enterprises is
placed at 4,000,000.
* * •
Labor is another Standing
Committee which deals with all
legislation affecting labor.
Actually, the only important
segment of the American econ-
omy not given safeguard of
Standing Committee la Indepen-
dent small business, yet not a
week passes that a bill is intro-
duced which has a vital effect on
the welfare of small business.
0*0
It is to the credit of the Select
Senate Small Business Commit-
tee and its counterpart in the
House, that more legislation det-
rimental to independent business
welfare has not slipped through
the last ftmr years. But only by
vigilance and hard work have
these committees performed so
much service for the nation.
* • *
> It is also a tribute to the fair
viewpoint toward independent
business problems by Congress
as a whole, that recommenda-
tions of the present committees
have been considered before final
voting on the floors.
• * *
However, the welfare and in-
terests of the nation's 4,000,000
small business firms is felt to
fully merit the at.ention of a
standing committee.
**o
Therefore, approval of Senate
Resolution No. 213 will give
American small business the
security at the legislative level
which modern conditions necessi-
tates with a standing committee
as a full fledged watchdog. -
