down by the Public Service Com

LAWYERS IN WORK
OR FIGHT" EXTENSION
Actors, Circus People and All
Fakers May Come Under New
Ruling as Non-Essential
Workers.
WASHINGTON, Aug. l.


General Crowder, provost marshal, is
considering several radical suggestions
for extension of the work or fight
order
II was learned yesterday that among the
classes OF employment which are beng
Investigated for their possibilities ms
''nonproductivc" are the following:
Lawyers, BARRIERS. chauffcrs. actors,
including movie PLAYERS All circus
employees and attendants, including fax
err
Il cannot be stated that General Crow
der had decided 10 extend the scope
of the regulations to embrace all of these
classes OF employment, but the national
Endorsement of the application of the
original terms OF the 'Work-or-hghf
rule has been so strong that additional
suggestions have reached the provost
marshal general IN great numbers
Il is believed likely modification
of the original order to include chorus
men. motion-picturc PLAYERS and circus
performers. including all Of the groups
that accompany the average circus, fair
or street carnival, will be announced
within few days. Such action would
be In harmony with the suggestion made
by Secretary Of War Baker in deciding
baseball PLAYERS should be included N
the scope OF the regulations.
Il am Of the opinion the regulation
should not be changed, but rather the
scope of its provisions hould be so en-
larged as to include oth,sr= elasScS-Qf per
sons whose professional occupation is
solely that of entertainment, SAID Sec
etarv Baker in his baseball ruling.
Letters praislng the 'work-or-flght
order have been received ~ the thou
sands ri General Crowdcrs Office, and
one of the most frequent and pertinent
suggestions offered is that chauffcrs
should bc included
Under the present regulations a chauffcr
is not liable TO lose deferred classification
on account Of his employment unless
he happens 10 perform household duties
for his employer. This means that if
q negro is employed a. a houseman or
butler and performs other service for his
employer in addition to driving the family
automobile he Is subject 10 the work
or-hght" order whereas drivers Of public
taxls and sightseeing cars. including the
taxi cruisers. which officials IN many
cities are combating, are not subject to
the order.

Tabernacle Addresses
By Wilbur Glenn Voliva
The Kingdom of the Heavens and
The Church
Continued from last week

MATTHEW MAKES CLEAR PEDIGREE OF JESUS CHRIST
Why in the very First Verse of the First CHAPTER Of
Matthew, do have these words he book of the gen.
Grafton of Jesus Christ the Son of Davd the Son Of
Abraham?
Who lived first in point of time David or Abraham?
Abraham, of course!
Ii man had written that chapter, he would not have had
any better than to have written it, he book of the
generation of Jesus Christ the Son of Abraham the Son
of David"
10 Jew, the first that had to be made clear was that
Jesus Christ legally heir to the Davidic throne
Why have the Gospel of Matthew, the Gospel Of
Mark, the Gospel of Luke, and the Gospel of John?
There is good reason for it.
Beloved, the Three persons in the Godhead GOD
Who made this marvellous program knew that Israel
would reject the King and the offer of the KINGDOM But
the Church hidden concealed kept within Their Own
secret council until the time for it to be made known
AS you enter the Gospel of Matthew you standing
upon Jewish ground, not Church ground.
In the first twelve chapters of Matthew wherever YOU
IND the phrase KINGDOM OF THE HEAVENS, it alb
solutey the THEoCRATC KINGDOM as it is predicted in the
Old Testament.
Where is He Who is born King of the Jews?" Matt
hew 2:2)
And yet, these old theological fossils have no more
than to talk about Jesus being our King" and the
king of the Church."
Take old commentary, and you will find without
an exception that the writer's did not know anything about
these prophecies they saw that THE KINGDOM OF
THE HEAVENS earthly tangible literal KINGDOM,
with literal throne just literal that of the British
Empire today.
There is nothing in all this talk about spiritual KING
DOM.
JOHN BABTISTs MINISTRY TO ISRAEL
Jesus the Christ, the King of the Jews, preceded
by John the Baptist In delivering his message, John the
Baptist did not preach directly to any but Israel
Why the Lord would not speak to the Syropheni-
clan because she addressed Him "Son of David
AS GENTLE she had right thus to address she
had no claim upon Him as Son of David.
When those Greeks said, 'Sr would see Jesus, y
Jesus refused to them because Genes had such
claims upon Him did the Jews.
There people who try say that KINGDOM
OF HEAVEN has been set up.
Absolutely unscriptural!
And in the days of these kings shall the God Of Heaven
set up kingdom" = Daniel 2:44)
When is that?
1t has not been and it not now in the future
How did they receive John the Baptist?
They put him in prison and cut off his head.
How did they receive the King?
They rejected and crucifed Him!
have often asked different why it was sending
out the Twelve that Jesus forbade them to to anybody
except to he lost sheep of the house of Israeli
found anybody who could tell They afraid to
tell it.
