RADIANT LIVING
WhithersOeVer He Mag Lead
BY Rev. c. NJ. Griffeth
Methodist Pastor of
Deals Island, Md.

1t must have been so disappoint-
ing-that He had vanished from
their sight the very moment that
they had recognized Him!
They recalled how on their way to
Emmaus the Stranger had Joined
them, and how he had talked to
them about how the Scriptures pre-
dicted that the Christ would suffer.
And as they had reached their home,
how he had desired to go further
but they had constrained him to
come in and abide with them. And
as they were sitting at the evening
meal and he was breaking the bread.
they suddenly recognized Him-the
resurrected Christi
What if they had not prevailed
upon Him to come in, but had gone
on with Him whithersoever He
might have led them? Would they
not have had Him with them still?
Has not the Christ vanished from
many a heart and life because that
heart would not go on with Him
on through the night if need be--on,
III q iuOTG ptIlSCl anu AuAl dSCOAu
with the will of God?
Often we cOnstrain the Christ to
come in and stay with us. And out
of His compassion He does come in
to bide-for awhile. But Christ must
go on. He can not remain within
the limitations of our desires. He
goes on that He might lead us on.
To continue in fellowship with !
the Risen Christ, we must continue /
to walk with Him whenever He !
would make as to go on a little
rther,"-whenevR He would have
us go on a little further in the
grasp of spiritual truth. a little fur
ther toward a full yielding of ones
whole will to God.
How often we are apt to think,
when we have received a spiritual
that we have received
all. How often we want to abide in
that experience. But we must not
feast too long on present expert
ences.
Oh soul of mine. go one with the
christ,

GrOWers Object to

Claiming the published stand
ards for wool promulgated by the
U. s. Bureau of Standards are
wholly deceptive" the National
Wool Growers Association, in q
letter to Secretary of Commerce
Roper yesterday, demanded that
its name and those of its officers
be withdrawn from membership Of

revisions of these standards.
F. R. Marshall, executive Secre.

Roper publication of the bureaus
standards left two false impres.

First. that the association has
approved the standards, and sec

these standards removes the need
for the trade practices conference
scheduled for March 8 by the Fed

IF the Japanese force their way into New Zealand and
Australia which the British either unable or unwilling
to populate they may become British than the whites

independent republican states.
Anything might follow japanese aggression from local

Germany today hoped to obtain a

The bid tor increased trade was
made by Walther Funk, economics

Funk expressed the hope that
Adolf Hitler's recent disavowal OF
American Nazi organizations
would create a sufficiently ia
vorable attitude" to counteract
the anti-German boycott.
This would not only help Ger

War Step

G.N.S0.-Senator Borah's at.
tack on the billion-dollar Navy
construction bill today caused Ad.
ministration leaders to realize the
measure will face rough going in
the Senate.
"To add far over a billion dol.
lars to the regular naval ap.
preparation with full knowledge
that it is but the beginning,
when taken in connection with
what other nations are doing,
is q long step toward world
bankruptcy and possibly world
war;" the Idaho Republican
stated.
."Such program is not in the
interests Of peace. It is not
for the welfare of our people.
These vast sums are being
drained off from the people at
a time when they are in sore
distress to find means to carry
on"
Borah also suggested that Ger.
tain groups of Americans end
their boycott Of japanese prod
ucts. He claimed such boycotts
"often suggest war.
with relationships with
Japan already strained" he con-
tinued, ut seems doubly impera-
tive that no radical actions such

Sen. LafoIIette Makes
Charge at Hearing

GN.S0 The National Associa

cused today of fostering strike
breaking practices held unlawful
by the National Labor Relations
Board.
Senator LaFollette (P) Of Wis
conSin. chairman of the Senate
Civil Liberties Committee, made
the charges.
ARTICLE IN BULLETIN
He based it on an article in the
National Association of Manufac-
turers labor relations bulletin de-
scribing the activity Of a citizens
committee" during a strike at
Remington-Rand in 1886 at lion.
N. Y.
The article described the forma.
tion and activities of the citizens
committee, organized to safe
guard the right to work"
cat a time when absentee
intervention' from washington
is advocated for all of industry's
labor and ills, this community
has given a convincing demon
stration that local affairs can
best be handled by local
agencies which thoroughly
understand the situation in
volved-and further the cause
of law and order throughout
the nation" the association
said in a preface to the article.
OPINIONS OF NLRB
Opinions of the NLRB alleging
that the citizens committee oper-
ated as a strike.breaking agency
were then entered in the record
by LaFollette.
Noel Sargent, secretary, and

DEMOCRATS RUN OUT"
Republican tax leaders, how
ever, charged that dissenting
Democrats "have always run out
on us" and indicated they would
seek to recommit the bill with in
Structions to kill both the general

special penalty.
Under the House rules, but one
motion to recommit the bill, which
would revise the present undis-
tributed profits and capital gains
taxes, can be made with q roll
call vote to put members on
record.
The tentative plan Of Repub-

sentative Treadway (R.) Of Massa-

bill to strike out both profits taxes
and invite Democrats to join.
