Christian Science

"Unreality" is the subject of the
lesson-sermon in all the Churches
Of Christ, Scientist. tomorrow at
II a. m. and 8 p. m. Sunday School
is held at II a. m. The Golden
Text is from Job 1881: Let not
him that is deceived trust in van
ity: for vanity shall be his recon-
pense."
Among the citations which COM
prise the leSson-sermon are the
following from the Bible:
Blessed be the Lord, that hath
given rest unto his people Israel,
according to all that he promised:
there hath not failed one word of
all his good promise, which he
promised by the hand of Moses
his servant" Il Kings 1850
The lesson-sermon also includes
the following passage from the
Christian Science textbook: "Sci-
ence and Health with Key to the
Scriptures, by Mary Baker Eddy:
when we learn in Science how
to be perfect, even as our Father in
heaven is perfect, thought is
turned into new and healthy chan
nels-towardS the contemplation
Of things immortal and away from
materiality to the principle Of the
universe, including harmonious
man." page 276D

NC OOL1c III Hd1cSClIlc.
Twelve months of unprecedented
assassination, bombing, Sniping,
plunder, rapine, kidnapping and
arson in Palestine have been re-
corded by the royal commission.
The mere proposal of partition
has proved it is likely to serve
neither public security nor justice
With an unmitigated prospect
of unremitting tension in Europe
tending toward ultimate explo-
sion in the great war, Britain lS
faced with a rebellious Arab popu
lation in Palestine, and a loyal
Jewish population asking to be
allowed to bear arms in defense
Of the mandate and of their own
lives.
An army of 10000 Jews could,
in case of a general war, become
a formidable factor in the Near
East. For the Palestine Jew is a
fighting Jew, and he is today
fighting for world Jewry, an ele-
ment likely to play as large a role
in the next as in the last war,
when Britain thought it important
enough to promise a national
home.
To the Jewish agency's demand
that the same process, promised
by the British, should be allowed
to take place though more slowly,
the British reply that "the Arabs
regard the process by which the
Jews gradually rise toward a ma
jority in the country as a sort of
creeping conquest"
Therefore, the British proposed,
for the sake of peace, to divide
Palestine into a Jewish and an
Arab state. But the record of
bloodshed since the partition plan
was proposed, and the bitter de-
termination of the Arabs to fight
it to the death, make it clear by
now that partition would bring,
not peace, but multiplied disorder
and death.

FLOOD REVIVES.
POLITICAL WAR.
IN new ENGLAND.
Industrial Plants May
Leave Area
BY EARL GOODWIN

New England's hurricane, 1eav
ing as it did the greatest toll
of death and destruction in New
England's history, may also leave
behind a wake of political storms
destined to rouse the voters to
unparalleled frenzy this fall.
"If the New Deal hadn't stalled
on those flood-control dams, New
England would not now be count
ing 600 dead and a billion dol
lars damage"
That is the tone of the bitter
Anti-New Dealers who somehow
or other believe the Administra.
ton Is playing politics-anti.
power trust politicS-by holding
back the 30 millions or so. which
Congress has appropriated fol
flood-control dams on the Merri-
mack and Connecticut rivers
which are the flood rivers.
They are also the rivers along
which the industrial towns have
grown up; which hold the hun
dreds of thousands of New Eng
landers who have suffered tire.
Inendously, not only from this re.
cent hurricane and flood but from
two previous floods in the past
few years.
MAY MOVE PLANTS
In fact, the matter reaches the
point where there are rumors of
large New England industrial
plants which may be picked up
and moved off to some region less
cursed with weather.
Proper dams along the two rivers
mentioned might have saved some
of the towns, factories, homes and
people, but although the flood con-
troll bill grants dams to New Eng
land, no dams have been built be-
cause New England and the New
Deal are in a controversy over
State rights, power rights, private
utilities and similar subjects.
The fight is. so bitter that there
Is a story in Vermont about an old
time mossback from the Vermont
hills who declared he would rather
be drowned than be saved by a
New Deal dam.
The flood control bill of 1896
provided that the Federal Govern
ment would pay for the dams and
reservoirs; that the States would
pay for the land needed and the
damages.
SECTIONAL MATTER
Because the matter is a sec.
tional one and because the rivers
drain several States in New Eng
land, there was created a compact
among the governors of Vermont,
New Hampshire, Massachusetts,
and Connecticut, in which the
States agreed to several things
but also insisted that any power
] generated by these flood control
dams would be under State and
not Federal Jurisdiction.
New Dealer antipower- -trusters
on reading that stipulation hit the
ceiling!
The President rushed it over to
the Federal Power Commission
which looked aghast.
"You can't do that" said the
Power Commission.
"All right. What are you
going to do about it?" asked
the quartet Of governors.
POWER LICENSE
The Power Commission an
Swered that the Federal power
law of 1920 gives the United
States the power to license any
and all power projects from a
navigable stream. Also, any prof.
ect into which the Government
puts money is a Federal project.
