Reality is the subject Of the lesson
sermon in all the Churches of Christ.
Scientist, tomorrow. The golden text Is
from Isaiah, lxvl7: Behold, create
new heaven and new earth: and the
former shall not be remembered, nor
come into mind"
Among the citations which comprise
the lesson-sermon is the following from
the Bible: Il know that, whatsoever
God doeth. 1t shall be forever: moth
ing can be put to it, nor anything taken
from 1t: and God doeth it. that men
should fear before him. That which
hath been is now; and that which Is
to be hath already been; and God re-
quireth that which is past."-Ecclesi-
astes, iii.14. is. The lesson-sermon also
includes the following passage from the
Christian Science text book, Science
and Health, With Key to the Scrip
lures by Mary Baker Eddy: ITO grasp
the reality and order of being in its
science, you must begin by reckoning
God as the divine principle of all that
really is. No wisdom is wise but His
wisdom; no truth is true, no love Is
lovely, no life is life bu the divine; no
good Is but the good God bestows.
Divine metaphysics, as revealed to
spiritual understanding, shows clearly
that all is mind, and that mind is
God, omnipotence. omnipresence, omni-
science-that is all power, all presence,
all science page 275).

Special Dispatch to The Star.
NEW YORK, March 1.-THE drastic
measures put into effect by the Treas
ury Department to force hoarders to
disgorge the gold they have been with
drawing from the banks just prior to
the crisis, as well as for the two years
preceding, meet the approval Of the
financial community - excepting, of
course, the individual culprits con-
cerned.
There are many theoretical argu-
ments against penalizing gold with
drawals and gold boarding in a country
supposedly on the gold standard, but
In an emergency like the present they
are not convincing.
The campaign is Endorsed and its
success is predicted. 1t has the CO.
operation Of the Stock Exchange, which
has asked detailed reports from its
members as to gold paid out to Gus
toners since the first of the year. This
information. added to that collected
by the banks, ought to give a fairly
complete directory of the boarding COM

Special Disoatch to The Star.

Special Disoatch to The Star.
NEW YORK, March lin the
crisis through which the country is now
passing the life insurance companies by
the distribution OF billions of dollars,
have been one of the principal fac
tors in sustaining our economic life.
This appraisal of the functioning of
the life insurance companies of the
country was given by Frank H. Davis.
vice president Of the Penn Mutual Life
Insurance Co. of Philadelphia, in ad-
dressing the annual congress of the
New York Life Underwriters Associa-
ton here this week.
Payment of these funds has pre-
vented the wreckage Of hundreds Of
thousands of homes, of tens of thou
sands of businesses and has prevented
the crippling Of q vast multitude of in
dividual lives" Mr. Davis declared 1T
Is difficult to imagine what the situation
of the country would be today had 1t
not been for the distribution of these
funds by the life insurance companies.
They have been the economic salvation
of large part of our population. They
have softened the blow all along the
line"
Evening star., 1933-03-11

The gigantic total of $500, 900 900
was distributed by life insurance COM
panies to their policy holders and bene-
,hciaries during 1881 and 1882, and in
addition these companies have paid out
hundreds of millions of dollars in policy
loans, Mr.. Davis pointed out. "And
while this was going on other billions
were being invested by the life in
surance companies in bonds, mortgages
and other securities, representing pur-
poses and projects that were continuing
the expansion of the structural life of
the country, despite the destructive
character Of the economic situation.
If we could follow these distributed
funds to their innumerable destinations
we would find them being applied to
the very foundational structure of our
national life." he continued I'VE f1nd
the country's business needing life in
surance as it never needed It before,
and using its benefits as it never used
them before. Corporations and part
nerships that years ago began to lay
up year by year life insurance emer-
gency fund have found it in these days
to be their salvation. 1t has tided
thousand of them over hard spots and
has saved many Of them from ruin"
