servant here is the steward, the
one who is given a special place.
Here is taught a general fact that

eliminated against, for each shall

Those who have more light and who
hold favored positions also have
greater responsibilities. If they are
unfaithful to their truths and fail
to live up to the light they have, it,

Jesus Requires Faithfulness, Luke
12:35-48, for Sunday, Dec. 20:
The New Testament has much to
say about faith as condition OF
salvation or receiving spiritual
blessings from God. This lesson is
one that emphasizes the importance
of faith.
v. 35. "Let your loins be girded
about and your lights burning.
Christian service demands concen-
tration. It needs the fixing of all
mans powers upon the one thing,
the making of an acceptable life to
God.
v. 38. "And We yourselves like
unto men that wait for their Lord,
when he will return from the we'd
ding; that when he cometh and
knocketh, they may open unto him
immediately The test Of the read
mess and alertness of these servants
was their ability to welcome their
Lord at once and so it is today.
v. 81 blessed are those SER
wants whom the Lord when he COM
eth shall find watching; verify I
say unto you, that he shall grid
himself, and make them sit down
to meat, and will come forth and
became guests of their Lord Now
we invite Christ into our homes and
into our hearts, but then, he will
invite us into his Fathers house
and be our host.
V. 38. "And he shall come in
the second watch, or come in the
third watch, and find them so, bless
ed are those servants" The sec
ond and third watches represent
the still and weary hours when the
watch is a hard task Christ's COM
ing again may find many will have
their minds occupied with other
things and thus make true watching
hard.
V. 80. "And this know, that if
the good man of the house had
known what hour the thief would
come, he would have watched, and
not have suffered his house to be
broken through" Here is introduce
ed another comparison which rein
forces the teaching and the need of
readiness.-so great is this need.
V 40. "Be ye therefore ready
also; for the Son of man cometh at
an hour when ye think not" Again
is taught emphatically the need Of
being ready to meet God when our
days on earth are done. How I'M
portant that lesson!
VS.. Al, AZ. "Then Peter said unto
him, Lord, speakest thou this par
able to us or to all? And the Lord
said, Who then is that faithful and
wise steward whom the Lord shall
make ruler over his household, to
give them their portion in due sea-
son? Jesus answered Peters ques-
ton in a general way-stewards
would be the specially chosen ones,
such as the disciples. The servant
would receive the reward promised
in verse 81 but the faithful stew
ard would receive even a higher re-
ward. There will be special de-
grees of glory.

want, whom his Lord when he COM
eth shall find SO doing. OF a truth

JIMMIE ROOSEVELT
 TO MARRY AGAIN

New York, March 21-(UP)-The New York Daily Mirror said today that James Roosevelt, recently di- vorced eldest son of the president, had admitted" he intended to marry Romelle Schneider, his nurse.
 Roosevelt's wife, the former Betsy Gushing, will not receive her final divorce decree until March, 1941. After that, the newspaper quoted Roosevelt as saying, he will marry Miss Schneider.
 will you wait the year out before marrying Miss Schneider?" the Mir TOT said its reporter asked Roosevelt.
 T will have to do that, I guess" the presidents son was quoted as replying.
 Roosevelt said he came to New York on a business trip and also to visit his children Sara, 2, and Kate, 4, whose custody was awarded their mother. He said he also might go to Washington and visit his parents over the Easter holiday.
 Roosevelt met Miss Schneider, daughter of @ Wisconsin tavern keeper, when he went to the Mayo Clinic for an operation in 1888. She went to the west coast with him after his release and soon afterWard her family joined her, Miss Schnei- der's sister, Phyllis, is Roosevelt's secretary in his new business as motion picture producer.

CONFLICT OVER
 MARSH SUCCESSOR

Hartford, Conn.,, March 21-(UP) Complications were reported de- veloping today over the appoin tment of successor to state personel dir ector Harry w. Marsh.
 The Merit System statute has no provision for filling a vacancy as now exists, and several parts of the law are apparently in conflict, &C., cording to reliable sources.
 One section of the statute prov ided the personnel director shall be in the classified service, yet another provision states he shall be named by the Governor from a list ratified by the state senate.
 If director were named by the Governor, it was pointed out, he automatically would be under the classified service. Then the senate has no authority in the matter.
 It was understood the Governor may ask Attorney General Francis A. Pallotti for a ruling on several contradictory situations. The Merit System law stated all those under the classified service must be res- idents of Connecticut for at least two years prior to appointment, yet a ruling by former Attorney General Edward J. Daly in 1897 exempted the personnel director from this pro- vision.

Birth AdU0cates M1 Organization MoUe Decision of Supreme Court Upholding Constitu- tionality of Statutes Severe Jolt to Leaders,
 "Out-Moded Law" Under Attack

birth control information should be made available It is agreed that due to lack of contraceptive devices, the health of some women is endangered.
 "The problem demands some so- lution. Ill the light of the decision of the supreme court, 1t is appar- ent that that solution must be ob- tafned at the hands of the legisla- ture.
 The future of the Connecticut birth control movement is pro foundly affected by the decisions just handed down. At a conference of various interested parties today, it was felt that the situation involv- ing the very life of the movement should not be the subject of any hurried decision. A few days may elapse before the legaue will be in position to decide exactly what it's future will be. Those who have enthusiastically supported the league, however, will probably look to the legislature for remedial leg islation in 1941."
 Hartford, Conn.,, March 21-Dr. Hilda c. Standish, medical director of the Hartford Maternal Health Center, today described Connecti- cuts birth control law as a disgrace to our state"
 Commenting on the 3-2 decision of the state supreme court holding the birth control statute constitu- tional, Dr. Standish said:
 Planned parenthood is an integ- ral part of intelligent present-day living. It is here to stay no matter what the legal decision may be. If we must await the change of this stupid, out-moded law to one con- sistent with modern thinking, let the shame of the present situation spur US on to procure for the future a law that will bring honor and not disgrace to our state"

DIES PROBE TURNS
 BOSTON, MASS.
Christian Front Members Summoned For
 Investigation

Boston, March 21.-CUP)-Robert B. Barker, Dies committee in- veStigator, announced here today that he had subpoenaed five Boston residents to appear before that con- mittee. It was understood that the five would testify in the inveStiga- tion of the Christian Front of New York and it's New England affiliates.
 Barker said he was not permitted to reveal the names of those sub poenaed.
 He asserted they would appear before the committee lat a date to be set later"
 Barker said that other Dies con- mittee Investigators were working in PaWtucket, R. l., Manchester, N. H., and Troy, N. Y. It was under stood that the date would be set as soon as the roundup of wit nesses had been completed.
 Seized in simultaneous raids in mid-January, 16 members of the Pro-Fascist Christian Front now are awaiting trial in New York on charges of plotting the forcible overthrow of the United Sttaes gov ernment.
 At that time, the Boston police headquarters radical squad investi- gated and later described as "anti- Semitic rather than revolutionary" the Christian Front in New Eng land, which claims 10000 members.
 Francis P. Moran of Boston, 31- year-old organizer of the New Eng land group, has insisted that his front" opposes the use of force to accomplish it's aims. Addressing a Pawtucket meeting last November, Moran, police said, referred to Pres ident Roosevelt as "Rosenfelt" and asserted he was a Jew. The Paw tucket meeting was sponsored by the Friends and Neighbors club of that city, composed of followers of the Rev. Charles E. Coughlin, radio priest.
 Barker emphasized that Boston police were not concerned with the investigation which he has been quietly conducting hereabouts for several weeks.

FIRST LADY IN l MEDIATOR ROLE
Aunt Martha's Box Lunch Service Hard Hit
 By Strike

New York, March 21-UP)- Business of Aunt Martha's box lunch service has declined 25 per cent, its owner said today, since Mrs. Franklin D. Roosevelt tele- graphed support of service employees now striking.
 The proprietor, Charles Corbetoff added that he would be pleased if the presidents wife would act as mediator in his dispute with the strikers.
 Corbetoff said that he was willing to do anything in his power to car ry out any suggestions Mrs. Roose- welt might make.
 He reported that he has written four-page letter to Mrs. Roosevelt, outlining his stand, and offering to open his books to her to show he could not afford salary demands the strikers are making.
 Mrs. Roosevelt's telegram "srD- porting" the strikers was sent to the luncheonette workers union ear- Her this week.
 Corbetoff said he still was con- sidering asking supreme court in- junction to halt bogus food orders allegedly telephoned in by the strikers.

TAX COLLECTIONS
 AHEAD OF l939
3I.2 Per Cent Better For 20 Days of March, Says
 MOrgenthau

Washington, March 2l--UP)- Secretary of Treasury Henry Nor genthau, Jr., said today that in- come tax collections in 20 days of March were 312 per cent ahead of last year, but warned that revenues would not cover the extra $46O,000 900 emergency national defense costs.
 In the period March 1-20 incIu- sive, Morgenthau reported income tax collections totaled $621 000,0 ,000 compared with $4730O0,o0O in the same period last year.
 Receipts, he added, were running "eomfortably ahead" of treasury estimates.
 Asked whether the increased re- ceipts would provide the additional funds needed to finance the emer- gency national defence expendi- lures proposed in the presidents budget he said there was mot a chance in the world" of this.
 He said that tax collections so far this month may Took better than they really are"
 He pointed out that at least L. 100000 state and local employees paid federal taxes for the first time and that a large number may have paid their full taxes on March Is without realizing that they could have paid in four installments.
