Radiant Living
WELLS OF
PROMISE
BY
Rev. Charles Milton Griffith

Injustice stirs the heart of God
to action. We can see this in what
God did for that unmarried mother
and child, Hagar and Ismael.
Driven by the furious jealousy of
Abrams wife, Hagar, famished and
exhausted, dropped the limp hot
form of her unconscious child un-
der a shading bush and cried out to
whatever God might help her.
There was God who heard her
cry and answered it. He directed
her attention to what she had not
seen before. Nearby before her
astonished eyes, was a well of wat
er, cool and refreshing!
1t makes no difference however
far you might be lost in some
wasteland of disastrous human ex-
perience, or however prostrating

This Week
In Defense

Chairman Nelson of the War
Production Board abolished the
oPM and transferred its functions
regarding production, purchasing
priorities, materials, civilian supply
and subcontracting to a new
streamlined organization under the
Board. In addition, Mr.. Nelson
created under the new Board a pro-
gress reporting and planning unit
to suggest improvements from time
to time.
Mr.. Nelson stressed two funda-
mental differences between the old
and new organizations: an increas-
ed amount of authority and a more
definite delegation of responsibility
to promote speed. He said the
main objective of the new organi-
cation was the full mobilization IN
the war effort of every national re-
source, large and small.
Mr.. Nelson named Ernest Kanz-
Ter to convert auto industry facl-
titles to war use. Mr.. Kanzler will
have complete authority to do
whatever is necessary, Mr.. Nelson
said. He said that he expected to
appoint as many other men with
similar authority for other indus
tries as are necessary.
The War Front
President Roosevelt told his press
conference an inter-allied supply
council and similar joint commands
are in existence, and excellent pro-
gress is being made to strengthen
the position of the United Nations
in the Southwest Pacific.
The Army announced Gen. Mac
Arthur's forces have repulsed con-
tinuous heavy attacks by reinforce
ed Japanese units on Bataan Pen
insula, inf1icting heavy losses on the
enemy with comparatively low loss
es to the defenders. The entire
Japanese 18th Army, together with
other units, landed on Luzon. U. S.
Army forces sank Japanese cruis-
er and large tanker 100 miles off
Jolo, and shot down 16 enemy
planes in the Philippines.
The Navy announced the freight
er SIS Brazos was sunk in a COLI
sion 120 miles southwest of Cape
Hatteras, and during the past week
U-boats sank the City of Atlanta,
the Latvian freighter CiTtvaira, the
tankers Coimbra and Allan jack
son, and torpedoed the tanker Ma
lay. The Navy did not announce
number of U-boats sunk or captur-
ed but said "some of the recent Wis
itors to our territorial waters will
never enjoy the return trip portion
of their voyage" The U. S. Navy
sank three enemy merchant ships

gress for SIS, 960,O00,000 for the

the OCD for air raid protection of
civilians. Congress authorized the
appropriation and formally placed
the responsibility for civilian pro-
lection with the OCD. The FBI
announced it will conduct special
war traffic schools for police of 120
strategically located cities. The

Lynn Says:

Laundering Tips: With soap
one of our prime, do not waste
items, you will want to make the
most of every scrap Of soap you
have. Save the small soap scraps
from the bathrooms and kitchen,
put them in soap shaker so
you will make use of them in
washing dishes.
To have clean clothes even in
spite Of economical soap usage
use your washing machine wise
ly. Use only just so much water
in your machine as the water
line indicates and do not over
load your machine. Six to eight
pounds of dry clothes are about
right for the average washing
machine.
Mix the soap thoroughly with
the water before putting in the
clothes. About two inches of soap
suds are necessary to do the job
up right.
Water temperatures play an
important part in laundering. Do
not use very hot water for white
clothes. For colored clothes, wa
ter comfortable to your hand is
best. For synthetic silks, WOOL
ems, rayons, water should be
lukeWarm.
