| believers, Cl6y W. A. 1As'
seemed to be looking for Some One
almost at every turn of the road.
They expected Jesus to return, and
soon.
Over and over again, Jesus had
assured His friends that He would
come again. That was the farewell
message He left them; 1t is the
last word of the closing book of
the Bible. AS Paul wrote his first
Letter to the Thessalonians he, and
they, certainly expected the second
coming to be in their lifetime. But
they were mistaken, as countless
other Christians since have been, in
fixing time for the Lords return.
Millions today see as the one sure
solution of the whole worlds present
travail the personal advent Of the
Saviour as King.
We do not know when or how
Jesus Christ will come again to
claim His Kingdom. Scholars divide
upon the Interpretation of Scripture.
Millions are attracted by the pre-
millennial teaching, which, as has
been the case through the ages, sees
the return as imminent. Others
believe that the coming was at
Pentecost; still others think that
the coming is at death, while yet
others look for post-millennial
appearing. We can only be sure Of
the Saviour's repeated warnings that
no man knows the day or hour Of
His second advent.
Many eager souls see, in the wide
spread visions of a transformed
world after the war, the veritable
arrival of the kingdom, with Gods
rule accepted over the whole earth.
Certainly this project is more
worthy of consideration than the
gloomy predictions of defeatist
souls that this war will eventuate
in the complete collapse of civil
ization and the reversion of human
society to barbarism. That would
mean the defeat of Gods kingdom,
and His kingdom is coming king
dom and not disappearing king
dom.
Even though the war is not yet
won, men are quarreling among
themselves as to whose peace plan
shall be put into operation.
All the while there is an incredible
neglect of the obvious truth that 1t
is the King who makes the king
dom, and that the church should
be bending all her united powers
to a presentation of Jesus Christ
as the only Leader who can really
bring to pass the new life of our
dreams. A general rally to Christ,
our Savior and Leader-a new and
desperate preaching of the old gos-
pei from every pulpit in the land-is
a surer way to the great peace than
all the schemes that statesmen can
devise.

Macarthur Repeats
His Promise 10 Go
Back 10 Philippines

BY Ine Associated PTeSs.
CANBERRA, Australia, Mar. IL
Il shall return to the Philippines, ~
Gen. Douglas Macarthur said to-
day, repeating the pledge he made
when he landed in Australia two
years ago from embattled Corregi-
dor.
At a dinner commemorating his
second anniversary as supreme Al
lied commander in the Southwest
Pacific, Gen. Macarthur said:
Nothing is more certain than our
ultimate reconquest and liberation
from the enemy of those and ad-
jacent islands. One of the greatest
offensives of the war will at the
appropriate time be launched for
that purpose.
Thinks of Jungle Fighters.
with Gods help, it should be de-
cisive not only of redemption but
of japanese isolation from her
southern conouests and of Chinese
restoration of Pacific Ocean COM
munications."
Gen. Macarthur said that "on
such occasions as this my thoughts
| go back to those men who went on
their last crusade in the jungle
lthicknesses to the north where they
made the fight that saved this con-
| tinent.
With faith in their hearts and
hope on their lips, they passed be-
yond the mists that blind us here
Their yesterday makes possible our
tomorrow. They came from four
quarters of the world, but whatever
land that gave them birth, under
their stark white crosses they now
belong to Australia forever.
Il thank you for the high honor
Of your hospitality tonight in their
and their comrades name. I shall
always recall it as Joined with their
immortal memory"
Called Fellow Queenslanders."
When Gen. Macarthur finished,
guests clapped. cried Good old
Doug" and sang For He's jolly
Good Fellow" Prime Minister John
Curtain praised his leadership and
Country Party Leader Fadden drew
the biggest laugh, joined in by Gen.
Macarthur, when he greeted the
general as fellow Queenslander"
and said that while he hoped Gen.
Macarthur would return to peaceful
retirement, he hoped he would not
settle in Darling Downs Gradients
electorate) because my task. is
heavy and the opportunities are
limited to hold that seat Gin Par
liamen0."
II want as little competition as
possible" Mr.. Fadden said.

lican presidential nomination,

seek or accept IT'D

ID. {. Firm Faces Loss
lon Deal in Batteries

A Washington radio firm, in con-
trast to the Midwestern civilian who
purchased dry-cell batteries from the
Army for $50 and sold part of them
for $4,000, stands to lose $1,000 on
So, 900 worth Of hard-to-get dry cells
purchased from the Government.
The company's plight came to
light after the District Office of Price
Administration had issued an order
setting q maximum price on over-
age batteries at 80 per cent of the
list price Of comparable new bat
teries.
Representative Cochran, Demo-
crat, of Missouri told the House yes
terday that an Army investigation
had disclosed that civilian en-
ploye of the Ogden Utah) my
base recently bought 53,557 overage
dry cells and later sold part of them
to his brother for $4,000.
H. E. Goodman, president of the
Emerson Radio Co. Of Washington,
said his home of1ce had paid the
Government 100 per cent on the
dollar" for large number of bat
teries included in a Government
contract which had been Cancelled.
Four thousand of the batteries were
sent here for sale.
Mr.. Goodman insisted the batter
les were not overage and said that
he had appealed to the OPA for q
new ruling.

Dublin Foregoes Parade
On St. Patrick S Day
BY the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
DUBLIN, Mar. 17.-There was no
st. Patrick's Day parade in Dublin
today except for a column of Red
Cross nurses and some 200 unarmed
home guards led by a fife and drum
corps.
The Fire Army, which used to
put on a three-hour parade, was in
barracks. The army has been kept
on the alert since Prime Minister
De Valera chose to regard the
American note, requesting closing of
the German and Japanese Lega-
tions in Dublin, as an ultimatum.
But holiday crowds, with every
one dressed in Sunday finest and
wearing a sprig of the shamrock,
moved slowly down O'Connell street,
the battlefield of the 1916 Easter
uprising against British rule.
A husky policeman guarded the
German Legation.
Sure, and nothing ever hap
pened at all, at all" he said.
