seen only in the light of the Clio
rious Gospel of the blessed God.
The Church offers a place of
public worship; a place where
believers in company with other
saints may lift up grateful hearts
in praise and alteration of the
Most High from whom all bless
ings flow. There is a blessing a.
waiting in the House of God for
all those who come in the right
spirit-a blessing which will not
be received by those forsaking
the assembling of themselves to-
gether. True worship in the
House of God exalts, ennobles, in
spires, strengthens, and lifts us
to such lofty heights that we are
made to sit together in heavenly
places in Christ Jesus.
The Church has no way to force
or coerce mankind to conform to
her teachings. Her function is
essentially ministerial and de-
clarative" Her authority is that
of truth and right which is the
highest authority possible 1t is
supreme and eternal. To ignore
the authority of truth and right
is like ignoring the law of gravi-
tation and the other laws of ma
ture. We do so at our own peril.
A cordial welcome and a pro-
missed blessing from God awaits
you in the church of your choice.
The Church needs you and you
need the Church.

How Happy Pierre Paid
For His Special Yule Gift

Many touching, and very human
stories about Christmas and the
Christ Child are being told and read
at this time of the year.
One of them, related recently by
a movie producer in Hollywood who
stated he heard it at little French
church in his West coast town, fits
In very well with the spirit of Christ
mas.
According to the story repeated, a
member of a sectarian order was
erecting a little vignette of the Ma
tivity scene A short time after the
scene was erected, the tiny figure
of the Christ Child was missing.
The loss was reported immediate
ly to the rector of the parish who
came hurrying to the scene Of what
looked like a theft. On the way
back, feeling very sad because of
the loss, he was almost struck by a
boy in little red wagon, rushing
down the street. The rector knew
the happy little boy very well. He
was Pierre, the local Bakers son.
Just as he was about to speak to
him he suddenly noticed the missing
figure in the boys wagon.
1T was you, PIERRE" he cried,
who stole the Christ Child"
Pierre, silent, said nothing and
hung his head.
After being scolded and asked
why he took the figure, the tot be-
gan to stammer: II wanted a red
wagon, this wagon, for Christmas.

Strange things are happening in

Moving vans are hauling away
furniture and personal effects. For
rent signs are going up in store
windows. Sales are in progress
everywhere, with goods generally
marked down 40 per cent. Yet, there
are few buyers.
Young japanese, in the uniform Of

impact Of the war has been brought

Little TOXIC has been dying. Fifth

Myriad of Problems.
Uncle Sam has ordered approxi-
mately 100000 enemy aliens and
born japanese from
specified combat areas in Washing
ton. Oregon, California and part OF
Arizona. The evacuation presents
q myriad of problems, including
acquisition of sites away from de-
fense projects, transportation,
financing and alien property GUS
todianship.
For American-born japanese. the
forcible election IS a severe blow to
pride in citizenship, and heartache
for the thousands who must quit
their jobs, leave school and start
life anew in strange surroundings.
Resettlement Project Started.
Thousands plan to leave volun-
tarily, without any prodding. The
first resettlement project is being
created. The site hasn't been Sc
lected, but details are being rushed
to completion Able-bodied young
men will be the first to go. They
will set up homes and institutions
and families will follow as quickly
as possible. The first call for volun-
teers in such project brought 1000
responses, and thousands more are
registering. The Government will
have to be consulted in every step.
The vegetable business in Los
Angeles County. $42, 900 000-a-year
enterprise, is going to feel the pinch
of the japanese evacuation. The
Japanese have supplied $4,000, 900
annually of the crops and it is ex-
tremely doubtful if there will be
sufncient white labor to produce
requirements of the $500 900 people
in the county.

Charges 'PO|i6Cs" Holds
Up Street Repair

Adhering strictly to party
lines, following heated debate,
in the voting in Wednesday
nights special session of city
council, a proposed resolution
was defeated which would have
opened the way for purchase
of a tar distributor for the ci-
ty of Newark. Republican
C0uncilmen Evans, Gaunder,
Payne, VanWey and Walker
voted against the proposal,
while Democratic COuncilmen
Stare, Wagner and Lentz vOt-
ed for it. Councilman Reh-
beck was absent.
In a previous resolution the
service director was authorized
to spend not over $1,000 for a
3-ton truck with cab and a 1872
inch wheel base. However, al
though the Bryan Motor COM
pany submitted bids, the ration
ing board would not approve of
the purchase, and suggested that
the service director shop around
for used truck which would do
the job. This was done, and the
Bryan Motor company offered
one for $1,000.
The resolution presented We'd
nesday night would have approx
ed the purchase. Service Direc-
tor Anderson urged the council,
in a communication, to allow pur-
chase of the vehicle as the city
streets were in bad condition and
the old tar distributor could not
be used as it was completely
shot"
AS opposition developed dur
ing the meeting it was revealed
that Raymond d. Merchant of
Merchant Motors had offered to
sell a new truck (Which the city
mechanic in a communication to
the service director, said would
not be large or heavy enough to
carry the load) the service direc-
tor asked for Is minutes in
which to address the council. He
accused the opposition of "play-
ing politics." and said that if
they wanted the streets repaired
they had better purchase a truck
while there was still time to do
it :. and that his office was not

Consumers Must
Cooperate In
Price Freezing

Warning that organized labor
must take the lead in order to
make price freezing work, Fred
Sweet, government representa-
tive of the office Of price admin
istration, told some $50 union
members, their wives and guests
in a Consumers meeting in La
bor hall Wednesday night, that
the rising cost of living can now
be stopped. He also emphasized
that workers as consumers have
an important job to do in win
ming the war"-by intelligent
buying, and by saving every
pound of sugar, every bar OF
soap, possible, and many other
items from which war materials
can be made.
He recommended that organiz-
ed labor take the lead in the or
ganization Of Consumers Coun-
ell and act in cooperation with
the Parent Teacher Association,
the Junior Chamber of Com
merce, and other groups in the
city who are interested in the
Consumer movement.
At the start of the meeting,
Emerson L. Fishbaugh introduc-
ed DR.. Gordon of Denison uni
versity, who told the group that
the office of price administration
had been set up by the govern
ment to guard consumer inter
ests, and that representatives
were working in the field, intro
ducing Joe Squire and Fred
Sweet, both representatives pres
ent.
Mr.. Squire pointed out that
living costs had risen 16 per cent
since a year ago, and that food
in some places had skyrocketed
as much as 25 per cent.
"Price freezing will now regu-
late the cost of living, and ev-
cry merchant who sells at re-
tail will be automatically hcens-
ed, and must adhere to prices
prevailing during March," said
Mr.. Squire.
Mr.. Sweet said that war price
and rationing committees would
be set up, and that organized la
Dor should be represented on
them.
He also said it would be a good
idea to make a price chart, that
housewives should look up their
sales slips for March-and that
unions were at their best when
fighting to keep the cost of liv-
ing down.
The speakers pointed to re-
suits obtained in other cities
where unions had worked togeth-
er in an effort to bring living
costs down, and said the same
could be done here. The impor-
tant thing is to know "what to
buy; how to buy, and the price
to pay"
Before the meeting adjourned
Emerson Fishbaugh told the
group that Mary H. Pierce, city
librarian had offered to set up a
dispensing bureau for all Con-
sumer literature and other in
formation of like nature, in the
city library.
