RADIANT LIVING
By Way of the Cross

Why is it that the star of Bethlehem
was never selected as an emblem of
Christianity? 1t is bcause of the death
of Jesus, and not His birth, is the
heart of Christianity.
And the cross is more than a mere
symbol. It is expressive of that de-
NAL and that sacrifice which is a part
of every true Christian life and ser
vice.
The cross meant death to Jesus. To
us it means that we must pass through
such a full conservation to Gods will
as to actually die out to our own de-
sires and to the desires of worldly peo-
pie.
The true Christian lives in an en-
tirely different world. The true Christ
ian lives in the environment of a
spiritual PARADISE paradise of di-
vine fellowship.
To be crucified to the world and to
die out to all that it calls "life" is
forcibly impressed upon us by the re-
mark made by James Calvert, who,
when on his way to the cannibal FIJI
Islands, was warned by the captain
of the vessel upon which he was sail
ing not to land there, for if he did, he
would surely die.

as perfect sound boxes for prolonging
and rejecting noise; sunless rooms;

NEAT.SAWNc AIR CIRCULATION

HEAT-SAVlNC AIR CIRCULATION
In ordinary practice much air leaks out Of the
system after being heated because it passes under
pressure between the furnace and the casing.
Holland eliminates this loss by having two castings
instead of one Air is drawn down between the
two under suction so there can be no outward
leakage and then passed through filters. 1t is also
preheated in passing the inner casing so that heat
ordinarily lost by radiation or by being absorbed
in insulating materials is fully utilized. Lower
heat loss means lower fuel costs.

You advocate putting the unions
out of business"

Fishermen IN Alaskan
Waters VexatiOus Case
BY PRESTON GROVER

WASHINGTON, Dec. 8. = Right
when the United States was trying
to toe-dance out of the spotlight
of the Brussels conference, the So
called japanese menace" bobbed
up off our own Alaskan coast.
The Japanese, it is claimed, have
dropped their nets in our own very
best salmon run.
Maybe it doesn't make any diff
ference to a salmon whether he is
eaten by a Christian or by a Bud
dhist but it makes so much differ

catches the salmon that labor
boycott of Japanese shipping is
Threatened
A boycott of Japanese ships which
might have resulted in refusals to
unload or load them in U. S. harbors
was once tentatively set to go into
effect November Is. The day pass
ed without the boycott starting.
TREATY DRAWN UP
This government has had trou-
BILE before with Japan over manage
ment of sea-going crops. The pro-
longed contest over who could kill
the most fur seals brought that once
profitable business to such a low
ebb that it was threatened with ex-
tinction.
To save the situation, treaty
was drawn up under which all in
terested parties, including Japan,
the United States and several other
nations, agreed to permit Yankee
sealers to handle the crop each year,
killing only what the safety of the
herds would permit. Japan gets
a cut out of the profits, along with
the United States
But in the case of salmon the
United States never has been dis
posed to share the crop, contending
that since the fish were fostered in
American waters they were almost
American citizens. BY a sort of
gentlemen's agreement, Japan has
abided by this unofficial agreement
until the past summer.
For several years Japanese ships
in considerable number have OPP
Grated off the Alaskan coast along
the shallow banks running out from
Bristol Bay But they have not ia
ken salmon. They have scraped the
bottom with travis to pick up
rough fish," such as founders and
the like. In addition, they have
caught and canned crab in that
vicinity in copious quantities.
American fishermen have had
no yen for this business. They
could not compete well with the
Japanese whose crab-canning crews
often were mere boys working for
pennyweight wages.
But factory ship that appeared
off Bristol Bay last summer began
taking salmon, or so the Bureau
of Fisheries feels certain. The State
Department declines to be SO posi-
