Reports have been lately made pu-

ambitious and worthwhile programs

on the program point to the need for
standardizing packages, minimizing

NO SUBSTITUTE

Those who subscribe to the doc
trine that a government can "spend its
way into prosperity" are due for a
rude awakening, as a study recently
published by the National Bureau of
Economic Research indicates.
According to this study, tremen-
dous drops have taken place in the pro-
duction of durable goods and in pri-
vately financed construction. Between
1919 and 1929, the money spent for
these purposes averaged about $4,000,
100000 annually. In recent years, the
average has dropped to $6,5OO,OO0,OOO.
In those years, government spend
inc has been at record levels-levels so
high that the bulk of disinterested
the federal government-which means
money going into construction and
durable goods industries-has aver
economists freely forecast ruin for the
country if they are long maintained.
Yet, in spite of that, pump-priming by
aged but $2,62O,000 900 a year.
AS the Morning Oregonian obser-
yes, "The incapacity of government to
overcome the decline in private invest
ment in durable goods is at once ap-
parent" Furthermore, the very weight
of government spending is in itself a
a tremendous barrier to a resumption
of private spending on any substantial
scale. Government pump-griming
means continually rising taxes plus a
continually rising debt-and the re-
suit is to brighten the investor, dis
hearten industry, which finds it's pro-
fits diminishing even when it manages
to hold it's volume of sales to good lev
els, and drive money into hiding in tax
exempt government securities.
No one argues that this so-called
Emergency spending by the govern
ment can now be terminated at once.
But all the valid economic evidence at
hand proves that the salvation Of the
country depends on a program to grad
ually reduce this terrific spending
and to encourage, through sound tax
policies, a resumption'of private spend
ing in the durable goods field. There is
no substitute for private capital-even
as there is no substitute for private
initiative and energy in making the
wheels go round.

CALVIN'S DIGEST

"The Negro Woman Worker" a
new bulletin issued by the Department
of Labor, Washington, reveals the
points which must be most vigorously
attacked by our women if their econo-
mic status is to be improved. I'm ALL
savs the Bulletin, "Negro women IN
what may be termed 'white-collar oc-
cupations'-in transportation and COM
munication, trade, public service pro-
fessional service, and clerical occupa-
tions-totaled about $1,000 in 1880, or
only 5 per cent of the Negro woman
painfully occupied. On the other hand,
native white women in the same occu-
pations totaled 4,330,000 in the same
wear, or Sc per cent of all gainfully
occupied white women of native birth"
Here is the rux of the problem

But this is the area in which prejudice
is strongest, North and South. Even
Negro men often forget that they owe
the same obligation to their women as
to themselves in their fight to smash
barriers holding them back.
Recently the Secretary of War Mr..
,Woodring, said the Negro himself ac-
cepts the principle that the races
should not be mixed in organizations.
However, MI. w. Frank Parsons, di-
rector of the United States Employ
ment Service, speaking to the second
national conference held by the NYA in
Washington on Negro youth recently,
reported that NegDses now have IN
opportunity to get jobs as administra-
tive officers = managers, assistant
managers, junior and senior interview
ers, vocational counselors, reception
lists, stenographers, typsits, clerks, tele-
phone operators, messengers and Gus
todial workers." Mr.. Parsons reported
further that: "They are working in
separate divisions or offices in some
cities and in mixed offices in others"
"This is important. The u. S. Gov
eminent is employing Negroes in mix

Careful observation of workers in the
Service over a period of years lead me
to the opinion that Negro workers have
proved themselves efficient in every
position in the Service to which they
have been appointed. These Negro ap-
pointees have contributed to a better
understanding of the problems of un-
employment as they affect their partic-
ular group; and have aided in interpret

OMAHA MUNICIPAL BANK
SYSTEM

II NOOCl0 III AAO ~
on May 9. 1889 have an opportunity to
express their choice on the establish
ment of a municipal bank system IN
Omaha.
Tn view of the establishment of the
First Municipal Bank in Birmingham,
England in the year of 1915 and now
established throughout the various
municipalities of Australia and New
Zealand by the labor governments
which is made up of the -wage-earners
of these countries, where labor rules
supreme and a system of unemploy-
ment insurance and old age pensions
as we'll as the blind, INDECENT and de-
pendant mothers are properly taken
care of from the earning of these
municipal banks.
For its latest development of NUM-
cipal enterprise a system has been work
ed out where, by poverty is over come
by the establishment of an unemploy-
ment and old age pension system with
out taxation simply by taking the prof
its of the banking system and applying
the benefits to the economic needs of
the people. That it has attracted wide
spread attention and there must be
many students of social conditions of
the local government who will desire to
obtain a closer acquaintance with its
methods and to trace the sources of its
success.
The main object of a municipal
bank system is to encourage thrift a.
mongst the working classes and the
small business men who are denied
bank credit under the old system of
banking by the international bankers.
The fact that financial relations be-
tween the bank and the municipality
are of a service to the people, because
it reduces taxation is one of the es-
sential features of its existence, it MAX

working classes. The municipal bank

STRICT ADHERENCE TO
DIVINE TRUTH AND
LOVE

Strict adherence to divine Truth
and Love is a correct and consistent
sticking, or cementing of ones self,
in thought and action, to all that is
true and loving claw fulfilling).
Such undivided adherence, or unit
ing of ones self to good, involves
and includes an equally complete and
unwavering rejection of all that is
opposed to divine Truth and Love,
consistent refusal to cleave to evil.
Christ Jesus adhered to divine Truth
and Love, when, because of their lack
of the oil of true spiritual minded
ness, ''many of his disciples went
back, and walked no more with him."
he said to the twelve 'Will We also go
away?" And you remmeber the reply
Peter made for his brethren: "Lord,
to whom shall we go? thou hast the
words of eternal life. And we believe
and are sure that thou art that Christ,
the Son of the living God" But Peter
spoke not this time for all his fellows,
for "Jesus answered them: Have not
chosen you twelve, and one of you is
a devil?" John 6:66-70. Like Peter,
loyal Christian Scientists believe and
are sure that only by strict adherence
to divine Truth and Love can they
work out their own salvation from
fear and hatred, sin, pain, disease,
want, death. They choose and follow
the road the Master trod, the way Of
spiritual mindednees, spiritual TRUTH
spiritual life, and spiritual love.
"And Jesus went forth, and saw
a great multitude, and was moved with
compassion toward them, and he
healed their sick" (Matt. 14:14).
Science and Health declares that Jesus,
when he healed the sick, 'beheld in
Science the perfect man." Up. 476).
Jesus first saw the mortars plight
and his need. Then Jesus beheld no
longer the error, but fixed his gaze
upon the spiritual idea of perfect be-
ing. This idea included all right ideas
and excluded all erroneous concepts.
Thus the victim of the mesmeric
dream of life in matter finds that I'm
manuel, God with him, is spiritual
power to heal and save. Adherence
to divine Truth and Love makes good
real to the loyal disciple and it makes
error, evil, unreal. It makes clear the
things of the Spirit, and exposes the
things of matter and the carnal mind.
The progressive reduction of the illu-
sions of material mind to their actual
nothingness is illustrated in even the
least demonstration of growth in grace
and the knowledge of God, Spirit.
Adherence to divine Truth and Love
makes dominion over evil possible.
Evil is not of God. the infinite Person.
Worcester Democrat and the ledger-enterprise. (Pocomoke City, Md.) 1921-1953, 1939-10-13

a1sease, poverty, death, all belong to
the world of make-believe. Just so
the belief in sickness is punished by
the experience of it. The beliefs of
poverty, lack, limitation, death, are
punished by the experience of them.
The punishment lasts so long as. the
beliefs last, and no longer.
A mirage is deceitful, mesmeric,
and confusing because it misrepre-
sents the real. Drug and other mate
rial systems of treating disease in
variably confuse men, and create and
foster false trusts. Health cannot be
built on medical theories, for they are
invariably negative. On the other
hand, no evil can control heart, mind
or body when confronted with the
corrective truth. We embrace our
bodies in our thought; and we must
embrace health, wealth, and wisdom in
our thought if we are to be healthy,
wealthy and wise. Science and Health
tells us that Consciousness constructs
a better body when faith in matter has
been conquered" p. 425.
