Speaking of the proposed loan to Finland, Senator George said ::
 Tt is no different, on a sound basis of international law, than if we sent battleship to Finland ?
 If we lift the restrictions in the Neutrality act" he said, it is easy to see we have destroyed the very heart of the Neutrality act.

RADIANT LIVING
Sheltered Within Power
By Rev. C.. M. Griffeth
Pastor Methodist Church
Sudlersville, Md.

SudlerSVllle, MD.
You wonder why Christian who
was formerly in abject slavery to sin
can now live free from it's domineer-
ing power?
You wonder why such person can
stand out in victorious conquering
triumph over all the cunning crafti-
ness of the devil?
You wonder why it is that Christ
ian can live a pure life in the midst
of world of crime, impurity and
evil suggestion and yet remain blame
less and spotless in the sight of God?
The secret of such triumphant liv-
ing lies not in the person himself,
but in peculiar power which God
imports. By this peculiar power one
is enabled to stand unmoved by the
provocations to resentment, anger and
i'll will.
Charged by this peculiar power the
earnest Christian is enabled to so
triumph in the annoyances, disap-
pOliiLiIlGiiIS, dHu even III CIlS ulSdSCcIS
of life, as to keep poised in the peace
of God as is promised to us in Isaiah:
"Thou shalt keep him in perfect peace
whose mind is stayed on thee."-
Like ship riding serenely upon
the calm waters of a mid-Pacific
lagoon, sheltered by the long encirc-
ling arms of coral rock, and unmoved
by the mad leaping, gale driven
waters outside, so the soul, sheltered
within the will of God, protected a.
round about by the sheltering wall
of this peculiar power, is kept in a
quiet poise, although surrounded by
the tempests of life.
AS one writer has put it: eve may
lose our anxiety in His calm, our
WEAKNESS in His strength; for His
creative force working in us and thru
us we may borrow all the endurance
we need to do the tasks that life has
set for u.s."

Three Great
Enemies Of
Democracy

It has been recently said that the
"three great enemies of democracy
are fear, prejudice, and hatred" Can
there be any doubht that this trium-
virate of emotions is largely respon-
sible for the wretched tumult that Is
splitting the peace of the world into
crumpled shreds?
Fear, prejudice, and hatred have no
abiding place but in the human mind.
It is there that they gnaw, and con-
sumo, and destroy. It is there that
the warmth of confidence fades; the
strength of reason becomes flabby
and frail; and the tenderness and
sweetness of love become virulent
and venomous.
In this age of civilization, when the
light of spiritual thought is growing
in warmth and power, it behooves the
individual to analyze the contents of
his heart to discover what of bitter
ness can be sweetened; what of hatred
can be softened; what of bias may be
silenced, that charity, and love, and
confidence may become compelling
forces in restoring harmony that
has been hidden by the smoke of bat
tie and the clouds of dissension; a
harmony upon which the great uni
verse was swung when "God saw
every thing that he had made, and,
behold, it was very good" H. D. R.
in the Mitchell Is. d. Gazette.

WIDOWS, CHILDREN TO GET
FEDERAL INSURANCE PAYMENTS

The widow and children of any
worker in Grant county whose deatf
occurred after last December 81 are
entitled to monthly insurance pay
ments from the federal government ii
the deceased father had had sufficient
employment at jobs covered by the
federal social security act with mini
mum earnings required by the law.
These payments are made regardless
o:e the age at which the fathers death
occurred, according to Arthur Kinley,
manager Of the Spokane office Of the
social security board, located at 2O8
Hutton Building.
Some claims have been filed with
his office, Kinley said, but other fam
lilies in this county may now be elig-
ible. The Spokane office accepts
claims for these payments from Col
umbia, Whitman, Franklin, Walla
Walla, Spokane, Lincoln, Grant, Ferry,
Stevens, Pend Oreille aud Adams coun
ties, and Mason City in Okanogan
county.
The following requirements must be
met to qualify for these monthly ben
efits: (1) the worker must have died
after December 81; (2) the widds3
must have in her care child or nd
opted child Of the worker that is less
than the age 16 il in school and (3)
the worker must have been employed
at jobs covered by the social security
act in at least six calendar quarters
since January 1, 1897 with earnings
OF at least $50 in each Of those quar-
tiers from such employment.
These federal insurance payments,
Kjnley explained, should not be con-
fused with the state law in behalf
of needy dependent children. Federal
payments are made as a matter Of
right, and not based upon need, and
can be paid only if the deceased
workers. employment record shows
that he has met the requirements Of
the social security act.
Workers in jobs covered by the
federal law have social security ae-
count card. They contribute one per
cent of their wages or salaries and
the employer pays an equal amount.

curity" may be obtained by writing
