Harding who first invited the Vice
President to be a member of the
Presidents cabinet. Last year Pres
ident Roosevelt made the director
of w. p. A. member of his cabinet.
Therefore, for year we have had
as members of the cabinet the head
of P. w. A. and the head of w. P. A.
If any person objects to the head Of
a department of public works being
in the cabinet, he should at least
agree that when the w. P. A. and
P. w. A. are combined, in this re-
spect 1t will be just half as objec-
tionable as it has been heretofore.
Public works projects are not as
effective In agricultural sections be-
cause there are few suitable projects.
In practice, 1t means almost exclu-
sively road projects. 1t is not wise
to encourage the removal Of farm
workers from rural sections to a city
for employment upon projects in the
city. The unemployed farm workers
must be employed upon projects that
will permit them to remain in the
community where they reside. And
effective assistance to these workers
must come from other plans yet to
be developed.
Opposition Is Sure.
This is a statement Of the pur-
poses sought to be accomplished by
the bill I have introduced. Because
1t affects the work of a number of
departments, 1t is certain to arouse
opposition. The officials of Gov
ernment department are just like
all other human beings. Once
granted power, they are, as a rule,
opposed to any proposal that would
possibly lessen their power or de-
crease their income. They fear any
change. But this Is not true of all

Protestant Churches
10 Hold Services
Al Cathedral
Dr.. T. Guthrie Speers
Will Be the Speaker
On January n

The Protestant churches Of WASH
id8ton are uniting in q service in
the interest Of religion and social
work" at Washington Cathedral on

partment Of Social Service of the

interest Of social welfare, which has
been held IN Washington.

crowns 1t.
Scholars are agreed that some
spur or peak of Mount Mermon was
the spot where heaven touched
earth when Moses and Elijah, rep
resenting the prophets, descended
from glory to talk with Jesus about
the subject of supreme interest to
heaven and to earth-the approach
ing crucifixion of the Savior.
After an examination Of the an
cient town of Banias, dotted with
antiquities, and q picnic luncheon
by the spring that Is the main
source Of the Jordon, we set out to
climb the nearest spur of Mount
Hermon to visit the ruins Of Cas-
tie Nimrud, one Of the greatest re-
mains Of Crusader possession Of the
Holy Land. We secured horses and
donkeys In the village-such horses!
and set out for the steep and
stony ascent, much Of 1t trackless.
Some cowboy may have my chance
the next time. Returning, after
having been twice nearly thrown
over a precipice by 4 horse with

I decided to walk down-the stoniest

Nevertheless, the mighty castle
with its matchless view was ample
reward for the cold and dimcult
climb. What builders those cru

the wonderful works Of the vast

from the biting blasts by . bit Of

standing summit as the possible site
Of the TRANSPORTATION. Incidentally,
I unused upon the physical proves
Of Jesus and His friends. whose
sturdy legs carried them all over

II this spot, most accessible to

of the TRANSPORTATION some one Of
