Temptation

Text: For in that he himself hath
suffered being .cmpted, he Is able
to succour them that are tempted.
Hebrews 2:1s.
Trials are Affections that como
from sickness, natural losses and
disappointments. Temptations are
deeper than trials. They are es-
sentially conflicts In the mind be-
tween falsity and truth and be-
tween evil desires and good desires.
They are battles IN the spirit a.
gainst unrighteousness, which take
place in the regenerating.
Temptations are of different de-
gree, beeorning deeper and more
subtle with advancing age, II one
is regenerating. This is essential
for the cleansing and rectificatiou
of the Internal Of the mind. Thou
desireth truth in the inward parts;
and in the hidden part thou shalt
make me to know wisdom" These
deeper temptations do not come to
the wicked. and tLs Word tells that
they are not in trouble as other
men are.
The first temptations are more
external. like the temptations to
steal, falsify, commit adultry. get
hungry and the like. When the
outward life is made clean, and Is
true, these temptations sink in for
the inward cleansing. Unclean
thoughts are as evil as the actual
deeds as the Lord declared in say
ing that those who got angry were
in danger of the judgment Of MUIR
der, and to look lustfully was TO
commit adultery.
Some forms OF temptations are
so subtle that they are not recog-
nized as temptations, like the feel
ing that the Lord whom we have
tried to serve has forsaken us; and
the depression, heaviness and the
gloom that come out of the SOME
where, even, when external things
have not changed. The candle goes
out, the soul seems dead, the heart
aches without an apparent cause.
interest in all things is lost, and
life seems torture. No love is felt
even for those closest to US. If such
temptations deepen, one should not
think that he is growing more evil,
but that they are from the death
of the natural man, the natural de-
sires, and rejoice in the new and
higher life that soon will inflow,
It is of Divine order that the nat
ural in us die, that out of the dead
self may spring the hallowed joys
Of the spiritual man. Except a

forth and bear its fruits of the ma
nifold blessings in Gods unsullied
love.

FIGURES STILL HIGH

THE unemployment index is probably as
l. good barometer of the state of the ma
tons health as there is Various figures on
unemployment are available, and most of
them are different; but they generally agree
that while We have taken a substantial bite
out of our list of iobless men, we still have
a long way to go.
Recent figures from the national indus
trial conference board, for example, show
that the total number OF unemployed work.
ers IN June this year was 7934OoO. This is
decline of $3.50 900, or just less than 40 per
cent, from the peak of March, l933-but it is
also an increase Of $4,000. or a little more than
l per cent from the figures for May. 1884.
We are certainly great deal better of
than We were when the depression was at its
worst. On the other hand, the summer
slump seems to be on. and at the moment
unemployment is increasing instead of de-
creasing. The figures contain both encour-
agement and encouragement.

NEW LAW, SAME PROBLEM

THE federal government is getting set to
make new drive against bootleggers and
rum-runners.
That statement seems to put the clock back
several years. It smac6s Of the old days when
We took it for granted that the eighteenth
amendment was here to stay. But it comes
from Washington in the summer Of 1884 more
than half year after the amendment was
buried.
Details of this new drive have strangely
familiar sound. The alcohol tax unit of the
internal revenue bureau is to be expanded.
Coast guard forces all along the Atlantic coast
are to be strengthened to strike at a new
rum row"
The new liquor bottle and label regulations
will be enforced with all possible strictness.
Lowering Of the liquor tariff and tax rates is
discussed, so that the price of legal whisky
may be cut to meet illegal competition.
The American people had two chances to
make mistakes in connection with the liquor
trafic-and they took both of them
First Of all, we more or less took it for
granted that by making the traffic illegal we
would solve the whole, age-old liquor problem
We tried that and it didn't work After
less than a decade and a half of prohibition
We found that we had simply hoped out of
the frying pan into the fire. Prohibition
brought certain benefits, but it brought such
fragrant abuses that the amendment was
finally ousted from the Constitution by an
overwhelming vote.
And then came our second mistake.
Just as we had assumed originally that out
having the traffic automatically would solve
the problem. so now our child-like faith led us
to believe that legalizing the traffic would do
it. In the first instance We thought that all
we had to do was pass a law; in the second,
we thought that all we had to do was repeal
one
But the liquor problem, like death and
taxes, seems to be unacceptable. 1t was knotty
one under prohibition, and it is almost equally
knotty under repeal. And it is just about as
far from solution now as it ever was.
We have had altogether too much emotion
alism on both sides of the fence. AS result.
we have had nothing remotely resembling a
cool, scientific study of the problem which
might show us the best line of attack
Unless We get something of that kind, we
are apt to find that We returned to the draw
backs of on open liquor traffic without abol-
ishing those of prohibition.

COSTLY EXPERIMENT

THE problems of the naval architect are
L many and varied. new revelation of
their toughness comes in recent news from
Japan.
japanese naval designers several years ago
adopted policy of making ships of limited
tonnage more powerful than any other ships
of the same size by giving them extra allow
ances of armament and engines. Thus a
small destroyer of $40 tons, the Sawarabi,
was given three 47-inch guns-heavier weap-
ons than any other feet ever put on so small
a vessel-and an even smaller destroyer, the
Tomozuru, carried three 5-inch guns
But these experiments failed to work. The
ships were made top-heavy. Both the Sa-
warabi and the Tomozuru capsized and sank
And now the japanese navy is rebuilding
many of its newest ships. cutting down on
gun-power to increase stability.
The designers would have revolutionlzed
naval warfare if their scheme had been
sound-but it wasn't. and it cost Japan mil
lions Of dollars and the lives of several hun
dred sailors to find it out

DISCUSSES ALTERNATIVES
FOR WORKING CLASS

By Station Attendant.
The writer knows he can do one
of three things:
He can quit his job, seek another
and failing to find it become an
object of charity. The writer can
do this, but won't. He can join a
union, and he has done so. He can
demand, through his union, that his
fellow employees and he be permitted
to bargain with their employer COL
lectively-a promise of the NRA-
and further, to determine, by vote,
whether the union shall be within
the company for which they work
or become part of a national or
ganization.
Through the union the writer and
his fellow workers can demand a
square deal and not granted it, can
strike. If he strikes, he will, in all
probability, become supplanted by
some sycophantic scab who will be
protested on his job by armed
militiamen.
If, after all reasoning fails, he at
tempts his goal by justifiable force,
he will be beaten, cowed and event.

his wife and two children with the

PLEASURE TRIPS IN
TE-OWNED CARS

By c. c. b.
Last Sunday I made trip which
I could i'll afford to a northern In
diana lake in my own little hiyyer.
which, because Of heavy taxes and
other matters, I had hard time
paying for.
On the way back, between Marion
and Anderson, I followed for a time
a state-owned limousine in which
couple Of young state officials and
their wives or sWeethearts were re-
turning, presumably, from the lakes
also. The license number on the car
was 43 with a star.
1t made me pretty indignant TO
think that l have to work and pay
taxes for fine automobiles and
gasoline SO state officials and their
employees can have a nice little
weekend trip to the lakes.
I thought state-owned cars we're
to be used only on official business.
l do not see what official business
these two men and women could
have had or Sunday afternoon on
the way home from the region Of
the lakes. I should think Governor
McNutt would put a stop to such
practice.

TAKES ANOTHER TITLE

TOO much is being made Of the fact that
Hitler has merged the presidency with
the chancellOrship with himself holding the
Office thus created. There is probably little
change in Hitler's actual power Of dictatorship
on that score.
II is said that the aged president was at
least a modcratng influence operating during
Hitler's June "purg.ng." which involved the
killing not only Of Nazis in disfavor but also
Of some Of the old marshal's closest friends
Nor was any restraining influence evident in
Germanys part in the Austrian barbarity.
Hindenbugs share in the actual govern
ment of Germany disappeared when his
enemy Hitler seized power.
Control Of Hitler comes from different
quarters. First from giant Ruhr industrialists
who helped 10 raise Naziism to power in order
to destroy Socialism and the republic. Second,
from extremists in the Nazi ranks who some
times lead Hitler the leader. These two
groups. financial masters and Nazi extremists,
now are pulling in opposite directions.
But even more potent than these influences
is the force Of events Hitler is retreatng
before facts.
He had to modify the Nazi terror against
the Jews because Of a growing international
boycott and outraged world opinion. Now ne
has to cover up the tracks of his Austrian
agents because virtually all Europe has united
against him He has forced the enmity of
Russia. brought the suspicious France and
italy together, and provoked the London
government to declare that Englands de-
fensive frontier henceforth is the Rhine.
He can not find friends among the nations
and he can not feed the people at home
The Hitler dictatorship is likely to be the most
colossal fasco in modern history.
Whether Hitler can retreat fast enough
and far enough to save his hide IS the
question

ANY OLD IRON FOR SALE?

WHILE drawing comfort from the belated
w and not too tight embargo on the ship
ment Of munitions to the Chaco jungle, we
NAV well cast a skeptical eye upon the re-
vival of scrap iron exports.

Persons who think that scrap iron Is mere

tions at war or preparing for war are ex-
ceIlent customers of our scrap iron mer-

It is something more than coincidence
that scrap iron exports from the United
States in the first half of this year set an all
time record, while the same six months saw
an increase in the tons Of Chilean nitrates

DOLLARS AND DEBTS

Regarding your Dollars and
Debts" editorial of July 30, it is a
poor rule that won't work both ways.
I am neither a farmer nor a labor
err, so 1 am on the outside looking in.
You visualize the national debt in
terms of bushels of wheat as Of
March, 1888, at 40 cents a bushel,
and July, 1884, at 81 cents a buShel.
John Laborer got 40 cents an hour
then and now, if and when he had
Job. His hour in 1888 would buy
more than four ffthS of bushel of
wheat and this month his hour
would buy less than half buShel,

fifty billions, using your own COM

Liberal Viewpoint
by DIR. HARRY ELMER BARNES

HISTORY is easy, but prophecy is far more
L difficult and hazardous One can mar
rate readily the course Of events which brought
Dollfuss inevitably to his fate. 1t is not so
sinple a matter to predict the fate Of Austria
and of Europe, insofar as they may hinge on the
fall Of Dollfuss and Nazi victory in Austria.
A Nazi Austria probably would mean for that
country inevitable economic decline, ultimate
COLLAPSE and the establishment Of some kind OF
radical government, presumably Communist. Its
fate probably will closely parallel that OF. Ger
many.
With Germany in desperate economic and
financial situation, the annexation Of the even
less fortunate Austria will not be likely to help
matters or postpone the evil day of reckoning.
What it will mean to the world if Germany and
Austria 90 Communist is too remote and too
complicated to warrant intelligent comment
TTOW the Dollfuss debacle and the triumph of
II Naziism in Austria would affect European
politics and peace depends very largely upon the
attitude of Italy Mussolin is the moving spirit
in European dictatorial rule. Hungary is only
too eager TO get a hint from Italy that frank
dictatorship would be agreeable to Mussolini
and Bulgaria would join in With gusto.
This would permit Mussolini to throw across
Europe a most impressive Fascist cordon-Italy,
Germany, Austria, Hungary and Bulgaria If
England remains on the sidelines as she will be
likely to do for a while, this Fascist bloc would
offer effective resistance to France, the Little
Entente (Rumania, Yugoslavia and Czecho-
slovakia) and Poland.
Il
IF the European lineup should follow this gen.
Il eral pattern, it would be ominous for the
peace of the world. 1t would mean that Europe
will be divided into two armed camps as it was
before 1914 1t would need only sharp diplo-
matte clash to set off hostiities as in 1914.
AS TO Dollfuss, even a charitably inclined
commentator will be likely to agree that the OBJ
servations Of the editor Of the New Republic are
fair and conclusive
chancellor Dollfuss Of Austria will go down
in history as one Of the arch fends of the class
war; Nothing ever can wipe out the memory OF
the armed attacks on the workers in Vienna,
Linz and other cities, the shattering with six
inch howitzers of apartments full of women and
children-apartment that were models of hous-
ing and had replaced some of the worst slllms
in the world"
