So the vicious circle works Its
way around, and stops not until the
drunkard totters off in his rags, I'M
less perchance some loved one or
friend takes care of him.
Do we not all recall how families
in our own communities have been
ruined and become charges upon the
county or charitable organizations
because of the destruction wrought
by a father who was a winebibber.
Not only does it bring poverty
upon families, but it reduces able
and gifted men to shambling wrecks
and thus deprives society of the
benefit of their lives and service.
A present-day illustration is the
unsolved problem of absenteeism for
days after pay day in our essential
industries. Again we say the cost
is altogether too high; let US get rid
of this monster before it destroys us!
III. The Eternal Cost Il Cor. 6:
Glib.
Money lost is serious. Life lost is
far more serious. But the saddest
cost Of all is the eternal damnation
of the drinkers soul.
We quote from DR.. Horace Martin
these stirring and meaningful words:
1T is my calm judgment that any
man who names the name Of Christ
should take an attitude of horror and
disgust at the liquor traffic and the
use of liquor as a beverage. There
are at least three places in the New
Testament where the Bible says that
no drunkard shall inherit the king
dom Of God.
IF any man takes that statement
seriously he must think twice be-
fore he refers to the use of liquor in
joking manner. or in any way con-
dones the use of alcohol as a bev-
erage" lesson Commentary.
Drunkenness is a foul and sinful
thing, classed by the apostle Paul
with the lowest of human vices. Re-
view the list as it is given in verses
9 and 10 '(and by the way notice the
other sins mentioned there), and
place drunkenness in It's proper
classification.
Call it what it really is-sin. and
then call on the One who can save
from sin. You will then be washed
from your sin, sanctified, and justi-
fed in the name of the Lord Jesus
". III. In Christ there is hope for
the drunkard. A spiritual revival is
the real answer to the liquor prob
lem. Let us seek to promote it even
as we at the same time give our
selves to an intelligent and construc-
tive battle against this destructive
force in - no nf orr nation.

Stains Position

The contents of the Presidents letter to Premier
Stain and the reply of the Russian dictator continue
to intrigue the news experts, with some OF them
asserting that Mr. Stain has accepted an invitation TO
meet the President but without naming time or
suggesting a place for such conference.
With this start the boys who make public opin-
ion get off to flying start, asserting that Stain Is
dissatisfied with what is taking place and extremely
anxious to avoid showdown on what Russia plans
to do in regard to Japan.
These deductions may, may not, be true. Ihey
are relatively unmportant if understands that our
assistance to Russia has been given strictly in our own
interest in order to keep the Red Army fighting the
Nazis and that the Slavs are under no obligation

II you prefer cold packing, fill q

Since then the President has
perked up and taken a positive
stand and congress on second
thought modified its berserk mood
and evolved compromise.
Now 1t is up to the people. If
the congressman are convinced that
they can afford to go national and
not be defeated year from No
vember; if they are convinced that
the people will support their votes
if they vote for what they think the
country needs and not to suit the
pressure groups that sit on their
desks all day. the crisis will pass.
Crack-DoDn Necessary
The detectives are pretty clear.
In the first place. the President
has got to take the helm again. He
has got to crack down. He has got
to see that dissensions do not break
out. He has got to see to it that the
secretary of the treasury comes out
with a clear-cut tax and savings
program which will absorb the in
fiation dollars. Congress will have
to support that program.
The pressure groups whose pur.
pose it is to get their members
more money for products or wages,
will have to be throttled. This
means that the administration has
to be tough. Congress will have to
have courage. The people will have
to support their elected representa-.
tives.
The vast majority of Americans
are perfectly willing to carry their
share Of the load They are not
willing to make sacrifices if they
believe someone else is getting the
benefit and Sinking their share.
The farmer will work the skin off
his hands and take meager reward
If it's for the good of the country
and the boy he spared to join the
army. But not il somebody tells
him the workman is making all the
money at an easy job.
The workman will face higher liv-
ing costs-and he certainly has to,
without a wage raise. until some
body comes along and tells him the
farmer is getting rich and that
is why his food costs go up. And
so on.
The reason why I believe this is
because receive letters like the
following:

Billions of dollars-how many we
cannot say-make up the annual cost

which must be added into our liquor
bill.
For 1t is not only a matter Of dol
lars. but of blood and tears, or de-
stroyed usefulness, lost virtue,
wrecked homes, and so on and on
and on. We go right on paying the
bill, allowing ourselves to be misled
by clever propaganda, and skillfully
manipulated statistics-or it may be
our sheer indifference. When will
America awaken!
Our lesson faces US with the cost
Of this despicable traffic in the life
Of the individual to the social order,
and in the light of eternity.
1. The Personal Cost Deut. 81:
1920.
Liquor destroys individuals relent-
lessly, rapidly, and effectively. Have
we forgotten that fact?
The passage in Deuteronomy pre-
sents drastic remedy for dread
full situation. Drink and gluttony
were recognized as the deadly in
strument which would bring a boy
to the place where he was incor-
rigible. Stubborn, rebellious, and
disobedient, his parents were to
bring him to the elders for a final
judgment.
If one thinks the penalty too harsh,
he must remember that it was estab-
lished In the early days Of Israel
when it was necessary for God to
use such drastic remedies to stamp
out incipient evil.
1t must be remembered that in
ancient Greece weak children were
left out to die. and in Rome father
could at will put to death even a
grown up son.
The point of this scripture for us
is that a life Of debauchery land it
can start with just a glass Of wine)
leads to the ultimate destruction of
life. 1t is far too high a cost to pay
for a sinful indulgence.
II. The Social Cost prov. 90:

Drunkenness and gluttony lead to
poverty and rags. The Incorporate
man cannot keep up with the high
cost of supplying his growing appe-
tite. Even as he tries to satisfy its
Unsuitable demand, it also renders
him unfit to earn living.

pessimistic pessimists around
Washington.
AS success on the battlefront
grows, the efforts of those trying to
support total war are being de-
feated on the home front
TlDo EUents
Two events mark the low in uni
fled effort for victory. One was
when a reporter, with no evil in
nuendo in his mind as far as I
know (and know the mani, asked
the President If he would make any
comment for background on the
statement that although things were
going well on the battlefront, they
were not going so well on the adj
ministration front (meaning home
'front.'. The President replied with a
castigation Of the press and radio.
Some Of their representatives, he
said, were encouraging government
tai friction. He could have given a
blasting, rip-roaring answer which
would have encouraged the coun-
try. AS 1t was, he made some Of
the men whose job it is to interpret
the news to the country. too mad
to be objective.
The second event which marked
the nadir in houlder-to-shoulder eff
fort on the home front was when
congress came within an eyelash Of
killing the use Of any and all subsi-
dies which would have broken a
wide hole in the anti-infation dam.
Let me state Immediately that l do
not believe that subsidies is the pam

have wiped them out completely at
that time would have meant jerk

did have right out from under the

Congress Quick To Adjourn

been solved by the adjournment. They will reoccur
when Congress gets back to Washington and begins
again to "save the nation"
