Six Killed in Colombia
During Political Clash
By the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
BOGOTA, Colombia, Aug. 18.-Six
persons were killed yesterday in
Guaca, Department of Santander,
during political clash resulting
from disputes over the current con-
vention of the Liberal party In Bo-
gotta to select presidential candi-
date.
Representative Lazaro Soto, mem
ber of Congress for the Department
of Santander, declared in the party
convention hall that he had been
informed the dead all were sup
porters of former President Alfonso
Lopez and had been killed in a clash
with police.
Meanwhile, leaders of the Lopez
faction and those favoring Gabriel
Turbay, Ambassador to the United
States, conferred throughout the
day in an effort to seat delegations
at the convention.
Most departments sent two dele
gations-for and against Lopez
and the convention must decide
which of the delegates are official.
The Liberal party selection of a
presidential candidate normally is
tantamount to election.

agement recommended to the Mar

iron ore boats be constructed at a
cost of about $50 0000,000 for delivery
in 1943.
Officials said the additional craft
would be necessary to move iron ore
for the expanded steel program and
that greater feet ultimately might
be found necessary. The boats would
be about 600 feet long and have net
carrying capacities of 10000 to 49,
900 long tons each.
More Commodities Under Control.
The day also produced these other
developments connected with the
defense effort:
l. The Government added a num-
ber of commodities to those already
under export control. The new items
included practically all wood pulp,
metals and manufactures, machin-
cry and vehicles, rubber and manu-
factures and chemicals and related
products Except certain pharma-
ceuticals land medicines) not listed
in previous export control schedules.
2. Mosquito bar netting, sewing
machines and all types of business
machines were added to the priori-
ties critical list. This list includes
all items on which Army and Navy
contracting officers may assign pref
erence ratings automatically. In
most cases the priority regulation
means that Army and Navy orders
must be filled ahead of civilian con-
tracts.
Naval Reservists' Service.
3. Secretary of Navy Knox in
formed Gov. Herbert H. Lehman of
New York that men in the Naval
Reserve would be returned to pri-
vate life as soon as possible after
the emergency ends, even though
their terms of enlistment have not
been concluded. ~
Gov. Lehman had telegraphed Sec
retary Knox that some confusion
existed regarding requirements of
the Naval Reserve, adding that
many youths had family obliga-
tions or plans for continuing their
studies and it was important to
them to enroll in a branch of the
service where they can fulfill their
obligations and be returned to pri-
vate life in the shortest possible
time commensurate with the Ma
tons needs"

Christ Rejected, Luke 26:9-20
for March 8:
After Jesus had told the scribes
and Pharisees that he would not an
swer their questions regarding his
divine authority, he turned to the
people again and resumed his
teaching. He kept the mind of his
audience still upon his opponents by
relating a parable describing their
rejection of the Son of Man
v. g. "Then began he TO speak to
the people his parable: \ certain
man planted vineyard, and let it
forth to husbandmen, and went into
a far country for a long time A
vineyard from ancient times was a
symbol of the Jews. The husband
men represented those who We're in
charge of the vineyard, the Phari-
sees. scribes, etc. The man in the
parable represented God. God S
program involves responsibilities
and obedience.
v. 10. "And at the season he
sent a servant to the husbandmen,
that they should give him of the
fruit of the vineyard; but the hus-
bandmen beat him and sent MIN
away empty" Gods servants in this
parable were the prophets and the
special messengers whom God sent
to the Jews 1t is the besetting SIN
of leaders that they are jealous OF
other leaders especially if they show
signs Of becoming great.
VS.. IL, 12 And again he sent
another servant; and they beat him
also, and treated him shamefuliy
and sent him away empty. And
again he sent third; and they
wounded him also and cast him
out" Here is portrayal OF the
great heart of God whose loving
kindness was not exhausted with the
husbandmen's cruelty, for each step
of their cruelty was met with re-
newed mercies and fresh calls to re-
pentance. God sent more servants
and the number of phophets increas-
ed as the evil times increased.
V.13. 'Then said the Lord OF
the vineyard, What shall l DO! l
will send my beloved son: it may be
they will reverence him when they
see him. This was Jesus pointed
way of saying that he was the dl-
vinely sent Messiah and that the ma
ton which had waited for him Tor
centuries was now in the process OF
rejecting Him. In this verse Jesus
declared his authority answering the
question asked in the preceding les
son. Jesus longed for the rever-
ence due him.
V. IA. "But when the HUSBAND
men saw him, they reasoned among
themselvevs, saying, This is the
heir; come let us kill him that the
inheritance may be ours" Here
