Divinity of Christ

To the Editor Of The Times
In the discussions on the Divinity of
Christ appearing in The Times, your
correspondents seem to have over
looked some ScripturaI facts that not
only clarity the seeming inconsistent
cies complained of, but harmonic the
statements OF Matthew and Luke.
From the following Scriptures 1t
will be seen that the succession to
David's throne was not fixed and I'm.
changeable, but was conditional
In Psalm 1872: IL, IL, we read: "For
the Lord has sworn IN truth unto
David; he will not turn from I'll; OF the
fruit Of thy body will set upon the
throne.
IF thy children Will keep my coven-
ant and thy testimony that I shall
teach them, their children shah also
set upon thy throne forevermore.
Kingdom Forever"
In list Chronicles 2sg s. Z. Q, David
states, And of all my sons. He hath
chosen Solomon. my son, to sit upon
the throne Of the Kingdom Of the Lord
over Israel. Moreover will establish,
his kingdom forever-if he be constant
to do my commandments and my 5ude-
ments as at this day.
And thou Solomon, my son, know
thou the God of thy Fatksr, and serxs
Him with a perfect heart and viii
ing mind: for the Lord searcheth all
hearts. and understandable all tbs I'M
aginations Of the thoughts;E # thou
seek Him He will be found, OF thee;
but If thou forsake Him He viii cast
thee off forever"
Again list Kings. "a: ''rt thy chill
dren take heed to their way, TO walk
before Me in truth, with all their heart
and with all their soul, there shall
not fail thee a man on the throne of
Israel"
If then the right Of Solomon and his
successors, to continue on tho throne,
was contingent on their keeping, the
law and the testimony, we must surely
expect to see the order reversed and
the inheritance transferred TO another
line.
mo One win Contend"
Surely no one will contend that Solo
mon, nor any that followed him on the
throne from. Rehoboam to zedeliah.
complied with the conditions set forth
in the foregoing texts.
Evidently then, the royal succession
was transferred to Nathan's line and
the right Of Jesus to sit upon the
throne was through Mary His Mother
and not Joseph.
The purpose in recording the gen
ealogy of Joseph by st. Matthew pos
sibly was to emphasize the fact that
the heir to the throne could not come
through Joseph. Another evidence that
he was not the father Of Jesus.

OF FLYERS IN KURIL LEs
Commanders Of Convoy, in Japa-

Ayiators

The days spent by the world flyers
in the kurile Islands and Japan were
brought back fresh to their memories
yesterday afternoon in the New
Willard Hotel, when the shippers of
two American destroyers. which had
rolled in that stormy area for more
than month awaiting the arrival
Of the planes, visited the world flight
suite at the request of Lieut.. Smith.
Lieut.. Comdr H. II. Frost, now
with the Bureau of Navigation, was
commanding the destroyer Ford last
May, and Lieut.. Comdr. J. w. Nc
Claran, now attached to the Naval
Intelligence here, was captain of the
Pope. Both officers have not been
in Washington a month.
The Ford was located farther north
than the Pope but the two ships
were harrassed by storms for days.
quently were blown toward the
rocks and had to keep steam up
throughout their wait.
1T seems like a year since we
struck that section" said Lieut..
Smith. Lieut.. Comdr Frost again
told the flight commander of the
surprise he experienced when the
planes put in sight. 'I thought you
were about 700 miles away" he said,
ana never dreamed that you would
be coming over on that day. When
the signalman yelled through the
tube that the planes are sighted
you could have knocked me over
with feather" The flyers were put
aboard the Ford for their stay in the
kuriles and also spent several days
on the Pope. To this destroyer goes
the distinction of having served them
the earliest breakfast of their fight
around the world-first call for the

MAY SALVAGE FLOATING
PALACES OF CALlGULA
Great Roman Galleys of Evil
Roman Emperor in Bottom of
Lake Nemi,

ROME. September ia fresh at
tempt is about to be made to raise
the remains of the two great Roman
galleys that lie at the bottom of
Lake Nelni, that most picturesque
little sheet of water in the heart of
the Alban hills, haunted forever by
the memory of the famous sanctuary
and grove of Diana that once stood
on it's banks and the grim-my stery
of the rites there celebrated.
The galleys, which were floating
pleasure palaces of the type known
as thalamegos, were built and
launched on the lake by Caligula to
form an occasional pleasant refuge
from his strenuous life of crime in
Rome. They were houseboats be-
yond our dreams, encrusted with
marbles, ornamented with precious
metals and scented woods and
adorned with statuary; the sails were
of the finest linen, and the hangings
were woven with silver and gold.
After the death of Caligula the gal
Ieys were apparently left to their
fate. AS time went on the timbers
rotted away, water got into the
holds, and the vessels finally keeled
over and sank to the bottom of the
lake, where their dark outlines can
be family seen on very clear. still
