When a young Paul is found today, he is made aware that he may look forward some day to being subordinate in the Lord's foreign vineyard to a native yellow, brown or black man, for "the day of the missionary 'boss' is past." Thoughtfully must a young Paul weigh the Laymen's Inquiry's words: "The period upon which the missionary enterprise is entering will test the patience, the consecration and the qualities of leadership of the missionaries in the field.

Founded by Sidney Reich, a 40-year-old importer whose family has never been more than a stone's throw from a vineyard, brewery or distillery, it is not an exchange but a firm dealing in warehouse receipts. Stocks cannot be removed from bonded warehouses (except with a federal permit for medicinal sales) but receipts representing ownership can be traded. Quotations: bourbons ten years in the wood-$-34 to $35 a case; ryes...
