The story of the temptation of
Jesus, about which much mystery
has been attached, 8 easy OF COM
prehension II we approach II with
sufficient directness. Remember
the true humanity of Jesus and
keep In mind the characteristic
temptations which have assailed
those who were capable of great
achievement and 10 whom was
entrusted great power.
We should never forget the
divinity OF Jesus WAS revealed in
a truly human life. The writer of
the Epistle to the Hebrews has
stressed in many ways the fact
that Jesus took on Him our full
humanity. and that He was in all
points tempted like as we are, yet
without sin"
II we do not grasp this fact of
the true humanity of Jesus and
that He was capable of being
tempted, we are led into all man
ner of unreal and speculative in
terpretations of the story Of the
temptation.
We have here three temptations
recorded - temptations coming at
the outset Of the ministry of Jesus,
The Tacoma times. [volume] (Tacoma, Wash.) 1903-1949, 1942-01-19

Of fasting when He was peculiarly
subject to temptation. 1t would be
mistake to think of temptation
in the life Of Jesus as confined
entirely to this early experience.
As q matter of fact, we see the
crucial temptation that came at
the very end OF His earthly life,
when He prayed earnestly that the
cup might pass and was tempted
to renounce His mission, a temp
tation over which He triumphed in
the prayer. Not my will, but thine
be done"
This early temptation. however,
had a significance no temptation
in an intervening period could
have had. The decision in this hour
OF trial meant the complete accept
ance of His mission and the van
gushing OF the tempter. 1t almost
every life there IL some great temp
tation the overcoming of which
means a signal victory and the de-
terminating Of ones character and
course.
The three temptations of Jesus
have a symbolic aspect, and they
correspond to the temptations
which come to the greatest and
strongest, The temptation in His
hour of hunger TO turn stones into
bread was the temptation 20 use

PENINSULA EVACUATION

Defeated Defenders Make Way to Safety on Cor

tBy Associated Pressl

The following message, dated April 9, after being delayed for more than two days, arrived today at The Asso- ciated Press New York office:
 CORREGIDOR Delayed) All night long last night, nurses, dazed with fatigue, and war weary fight CTS braved Japanese bombers and the shark-infested waters to escape from stricken Bataan for compara- tive safety on Corregidor Island, Manila Bay fortress, still in the hands of United States forces.
 tThis is the first cabled news dispatch to reach The Associated Press directly from Corregidor since the fall of Bataan)
 The Associated Press dispatch was sent by Dean Schneider, who said some swam and others rowed pitt fully small boats through the bombs and vicious machine gun blasts of enemy planes.
 Those who swan were picked up
 
 Nurses, fatigued by days and nights of service in Bataan's hospitals under constant fire, stumbled ashore so weary they could sacrcely walk.
 T questioned soldiers who had gone night after night without sleep, who had eaten but little dur ing those final days when they were faced with overwhelming odds. They had stood and fought and then re- treated to stand and fight again. But while they tried to be obliging and tell about Bataan's last hours, they wanted only one thing now sleep.
 They were gripped by the desire to sleep. Their memory of exper- fences is not clear to them.
 During the night. we looked across the channel toward Bataan and heard the bombing explosions, saw many colored by fires as the defenders last defiant action de- stroyed the munition dumps, fuel and anything which might be val uable to the pressing enemy.
 We heard over the short wave radio secret station in the hills of the fall of Bataan. The soldiers here, veterans of scores of pound- ing bombing raids, wept unashamed at the announcer's words, 'Bataan has fallen"

LONDON, April Il = Reliable sources here say that General George C. Marshall and Harry Hopkins are convinced that Russia is the decisive battlefield of Europe.
 The two American envoys to Britain, conferrimg on the Allied plans, are said to be discussing with the United Nations front the most effective way to aid the Red Armies.
 Aid is said to be almost certain to include a United States air force for reinforcement of the Royal Air Force in bombing Germany.
 British and United States fleets are so busy conveying supplies to Russia and the Russian shipping situation is so acute that it prob ably will be some time before there will be transports available to ef- feet a continental invasion.

 Replacement
Story in Anhordge Times that Governor to leave

-OhcIal U, s. Navy Pho. [

WASHINGTON, April 11.-Offic- ial Washington failed last night to yield any information that would substantiate the Anchorage Times story that Gov. Ernest Gruening is to be replaced as Alaska's Chief Executive.
 Delegate Anthony J. Dimond said today that he had investigated sim liar reports two weeks ago and found them without substantiation
 He said that he doubted them be- cause Gov. Grusning's appoint ment was a personal appointment of President Roosevelt.
 Gcv. Gruening declined to com ment.
 The Governor said that he is leav- ing Washington next week after sev- eral weeks in the capital working on mining, freight rates and other matters.
 We fear that before long gold mining will be suspended largely in the hope of transferring operations to obtaining strategic minerals" Gov. Gruening said.
 Delegate Dimond and Gov. Gruen- ing are seeking to obtain priorities for the placer mining industry

The w ashingt ion Merry Go Round
By DREW PEARSON and ROBERT s. ALLEN

WASHINGTON = Deadliest testl- mony against the Vinson-Smlth Dill to repeal the 40-hour week dld not come from WIPE Chief Donald Nell son or labor leaders Bill Green ana Phil Murray, though the trio got the headlines. It came from one of the most militant advocates ol the measure.
 He was Mervyn K. Hart, head of the New York State Economic Council, who appeared as witness for the legislation. But his testl- mony quickly turned into sting ing boomerang when Representative Mike Bradley of Pennsylvania started grilling Hart about his background.
 Among other things. Hart ad- mitted:
 CD That he had been an active foe of the Lend-Lease program; CD that he had been a member of the America First Committee; (3 that he attended the anti Roosevelt rally in Madison Square Garden, at which Fritz Kuhn and other Bund- ists were present; and t4 that his organization advocated disfranchis- ing relief workers.
 While admitting that his organ ization had participated" in the New York meeting, Hart vehement ly denied any relations with the Bund.
 Fritz Kuhn wasn't invited" Hart declared. He just. happened to show up."
 Has your organization ever ad- vocated disfranchising WPA workers and other people on relief?" asked Bradley.
 "Yes, we believe that such people shouldn't have the right to vote
 There were two very red faces III the committee room when Hart concluded his damaging testimony They belonged to Representatives Carl Vinson of Georgia and Howard Smith of Virginia, co-authors oi the repeal bill.
