7 CHURCH OF GOD
2025 No. oath Street
Elder Robert L. Moody, Pastor
Mrs. Edna W. Moody. Reporter

The message of asst Sunday morn
ing was doctrinal in nature. It's
theme was 1.-THE Resurrection. +"
and wa the third under the general
subject: THE Second Coming of
Christ"
No more effective words can be
used than these: "And if Christ be
not risen, then is our preaching
vain, and your faith Is also vain,
yea and we are found false Witness
es of God. If IN this life only we
have hope in Christ, we are all
men most miserable" | Cor. 1914
10.
The thought for the evening was:
"Christ In You" 1t is one thing to
know about Christ and have Him
with you, but a very different thing
to have Him in you. When one has
Christ in himself or herself, he or
she becomes partaker of Christ's
life, nature, spirit, mind and image.
Having all these, we replicas of
His personality, i. e., members Of
His body, of His flesh and of His
bones" We appreciate the presence
Of visitors, ESPECIALLY tn ministers
Mrs. Ester Dixon and Elder Irwin.
Unless inspired differently, the
messages for Dec. goth, will be:
"Tho Second Coming of Christ
(theme) "The Judgment" at mid
day services. At evening Worship
"The True Spirit of Christmas
Come thou with us.

ST. JOHN A. M. E. CHURCH
"The Friendly Church"
Rev. X. A. Adams, Pastor

In spite of the bad weather, the
attendance at church and Sunday
school We're very good. The little
children's heart are running over
with joy to know the Christmas
season is so near at hand.
Rev. Adams preached from st.
Matthew, AS. He took as a sub
ject, Cast Thyself Down."
Some of the outstanding thoughts
to be remembered from his sermon
were: God does not cast anyone
down, people cast themselves down.
God puts the necessary things of
life in the world and gives man an
appetite, and man should be con-
sierate Of what he does.
When man goes down, it is at
his owl will because neither God
nor the devil cast him down. When
one casts himself down, he has not
the faith in God. If he has the
faith, he will hold ON to God. The
only life insurance is to have your
sins forgiven, and we must be in
tune with God to get the great
blessings and needs he has in store
for US. Tn best of all was two fine
young people joining the church. II

THE DUTY OF THE
AMERICAN PRESS

Jerome d. Barnum, president of the
American Newspaper Publishers Asso-
citation, in speech before the institute
Of public affairs declared:
I'VE face a national election. Many
think il will be the most momentous
since the republic was formed. It IS the
duty of the American Press in the
maintenance of its trust, to keep the
peoples rights for a free press, to see
that the American public is thoroughly
informed on all the important issues of
this campaign, as we'll as all of the inl-
portant utterances and activities of the
candidates. . Our newspapers. in luS-
tification of their constitutional liberty,
welcome this opportunity of service to
their readers in the forthcoming cam
paign that the wheat shall be separated
from the chaff; that propaganda shall
not overcome fact; that truth and per-
formance shall prevail over promise and
reputation, so that each citizen can
make for himself clear and conscien-
tious decision"
In these words, Mr. Barnum ably eX-
presses a policy to which this news
paper heartily subscribes. There should
be no connection between the news con-
tent and the editorial column in which
the paper expresses its conclusions, opl-
MONS, interpretations and observations.
The conveyance of news is the primary
purpose of the daily paper. It's main
duty is to tell of events and occurances,
and not permit in any way, its own edi-
torial opinion to govern what is to go
into its news columns.
1t is regretable that SO few newspapers
live up to this ideal.

We SHOULD PROFIT FROM
SPANS UNPLEASANT PLIGHT

Spain today is an example of what
no country wishes to become. Ravaged
by countless social theories, torn by con-
flict and revolution, the once great ma
tion is hardly more than milling mass
of people.
To the world it offers an example of
the political chaos which any country
of weak foundation may expect under
the depredations of modern-day theories
of socialism, Fascism, Communism Ma
zism and what-have-you.
Because of Spain's low average of
education, these revolutionary theories
have been able to take deep root. I'm
reasoning and without the national facil-
tiles of continuous information such as
magazines, newspapers, radio, and the
high privilege of free-speech and free
discussion, the illiterate nations of the
world are seen as the ones most serious
ly effected by the various kinds Of revol-
utionary thought.
The United States can be duly thank
full that universal education is funda-
mental precept of our form of govern
ment. Universal enlightenment is seen
as the most important defense we have
against serious social upset. This coun-
try, concerned as it is with subverslye
movements, is therefore armed with
protection which many other countries
such as Spain must do without. In this
we are extremely blessed.

THE POWER COMPANY
Uses 4 NEW HOUTHpIECE

The word now comes that Gov. Ed
Johnson of Colorado joins Gov. Henry
Blood of Utah in protesting construc-
ton of California Power Plants in
competition with Boulder DAM The
protest is based on the theory that such
projects as the All American canal pow
er development would jeopardize re-
payment of the Boulder Dam cost.
Ed Johnsons protest may be perfect
" sincere and bona fide. We cannot
help but recall that in Denver live some
of the chief officials and investors in
Nev-Cal. which leads to the suspicion
that possibly former Senator Phipps,
whose interests are very much tied up
with Nev-Cal and Southern SierraS
somehow has given the Governor a one
sided picture. Otherwise it is unthlnk-
able that Gov Johnson, straight-spok-
en- sort of fellow, should act as mouth
piece for the power interests.

News Behind the News
Mystery of the Super-Sieuth His
Politics Slightly Weak PWA
Chiefs Don't Like Shopping

WASHINGTON.-The mystery of what has
happened to Louis r. CLAWS, the super-sleuth
who has been combating graft and scandal for
WPA and the Interior Department these last
three years, seems almost as deep as any that
CLAWS himself has unraveled in his spectac-
ular career.
But it is clear enough that his days as
chief investigator for Secretary Administrator
Harold l. Ickes began to be numbered months
ago. when he first crossed the path of Ebert K.
Burlew. grand vizier to Ickes.
The duel between CLAWS and Burlew be-
came intense and the result is that CLAWS is
going to work for the Senate campaign eXpendl-
lures investigating committee and will also do
odd JOBS of investigating for the president on
the side.
that CLAWS didn't resign, that he wasn't asked
TO resign and that he wasn't fired.
Meanwhile there's an atmosphere of tense
embarrassment in the Ickes domain and one
is reminded that % years ago, in the Balllnger
scandal CLAWS as a young man who dared
to tell the truth was storm center at the
Interior Department The circumstances, OF
course, are different -
Ickes has become persuaded that he has
suffered from the "snooping and "man-hunting"
tactics of the big CLAWS force to investigators.
Many PWA officials and employees were glad
to side with Burlew. charging various petty or
inept invasions Of their offices or projects and
insinuations as to their honesty.
On the other hand, CLAWS partisans point
out that his division made strong record
against political crooks, oil company lobbyists,
shady PWA employees code chiselers, kickback
operators, and would-be grafters.
The recent period of embarrassment has
been partly due TO the fact that CLAWS knows SO
much about the administration and partly due
to the fact that the White House crowd likes
his work
He and his staff have infiltrated through a
large part of the administration, encountering
many interesting facts here and there. 1t has
been suggested that he might cause the admin
istration an enormous amount of embarrassment
IN the campaign were he so minded and that
thought has not been ignored by Ickes.
However, Roosevelt has sometimes used Gla-
vis for secret investigations and feels he can
use him some more The White House con-
tinues TO be sour on BurleW which appears to
be large reason behind rumors of d likely
shakeup IN the department after election, in
volVing the possible departure of Ickes himself.
These rumors should be discounted because
Ickes will be used in the campaign and Roose-
velt is still fond of him of and on.
GlayiS-detectiye hero OF the Ballinger al
fair the Teapot Dome scandal, the Hearst Mex
lean documents expose, the power trust in
vestigation Ku Klux Klan investigation, and
other causes celebre-Will be worth watching in
his Campaign investigations.
His record indicates you'll hear much more
of him Whether there will be further explo-
sions in Interior and PWA is anybody's guess
