Christian Science Text
From IL Corinthians

"Doctrine of Atonement" was the
subject of the Lesson-Sermon IN
all Christian Science Churches and
Societies yesterday.
The Golden Text was from II
Corinthians 5: II. IF any man
be in Christ, he is new creature:
old things are passed away; be-
hold, all things are become new. ;"
Among the citations which COM
prised the Lesson-Sermon were
the following from the Bible: But
God, who is rich in mercy, for his
great love wherewith he loved us,
Even when We were dead in sins,
hath quickened us together with
Christ, (by grace ye are saved;o
And hath raised us up together, and
made us sit together in heavenly
places in Christ Jesus: For through
him we both have access by one
Spirit unto the Father (Ephesians
2: 4, 6, s, 49,.
The Lesson-Sermon also includ-
ed the following passages from the
Christian Science textbook,
Science and Health with Key to
the Scriptures" by Mary Baker
Eddy: THE atonement of Christ
reconciles man to God, not God
to man Jesus aided in recon-
cling man to God by giving
man a truer sense of Love, the
divine Principle of Jesus teach
ings, and this. truer sense of Love
redeems man from the law Of mat
ter, sin, and death by the. law of
Spirit,-the law of divine Love-

STAIN ACCLAIMS
PACT With POLES

panding Polish provisional govern
ment new prestige.
(The Polish Warsaw government,
is not recognized by Britain anc
the United States, which nations de-
MED a Soviet request for represen
tation of that regime at the Sar
Francisco world security confer
ence opening Wednesday. Negotia
tons are in progress in Washington
seeking to establish broader
united Polish government along
lines set forth in the Yalta Agree
ment among the three big powers
The newest of the Soviet pacts
signed for the Poles by Prime Min
lister Eduard Osubka MoraWski
does not differ in any major res
pect from the treaties which Russia
signed earlier with Czechoslovakis
and Yugoslavia. Both these count
ries, like Russia, have recognized
the provisional government of Pc
land, a fact which strengthens the
bond between the four Slav gov
ernments.
Stain gave an indication of the
importance he attached to the
treaty by a lengthy speech over
flowing with praise. He called il
"a guaranty of the independence Of
a new democratic Poland"
1t meant, he said, "a liquidation
of the old destructive political. play
(by Poland between Germany ano
the Soviet Union and replaces it
with policy of alliance and friend
ship between Poland and her east
ern neighbor.
He added:
Nov it is possible to say with
assurance that German aggression
is checked from the east. Undoubt
eddy this barrier on the East viii
be supplemented by a barrier from
the West, that is by an alliance O.
our countries with our Allies or
the West. Then it may boldly be
stated that German aggression will
be restrained and will not be easily
loosed."
For this reason" Stain con
cluded, Il do not doubt that oul
Allies in the West will hail thi!
treaty"
The treaty runs for 20 years ane
is automatically renewed for five
year periods indefinitely after tina
unless officially denounced by one
party a year before date of ex
piration.

"r The situation on the Western
Front is unfavorable to us because
of the enemy's superiority in man

(, "Only attacks against the ene'
my's flank and rear, with the dis
ruption and cutting of his lines oil
communication, can guarantee
success. Success in battle consists
of constant attacks on the enemy
rear in conjunction with partisan
warfare. The main point in these
attacks is to force the enemy with
cunning and guile into positions in
which his troops are spread out
all over the country and in the
greatest strength in those areas
here he cannot afford it.
Our own attacks have there
fore not to be directed against
the enemy's strong points bu'
against his weak spots-the flanks,
the rear and the lines of communi

enemy lines is therefore of SUI
preme importance.

method which was shown anc

Dropping the Mask

them that America, too, was finally
attacked.
Of course, they wanted unity in
the United States then, as did all
Americans.
But they had DIFFERENT
REASON than other Americans.
Their only enthusiasm for the
war was inspired by Russia s danger.
Their sole interest in the war was
Russia S victory.
They wore their "Americanism"
as a MASK.
Their pretended dissolution of
the Communist party in the United
States was a FRAUD.
NOW they have no further need for
~ pretense and their fraudulent
devices.
Now Russia is safe, and victorious,
and at peace.
Now, therefore, THEY have no
further enthusiasm for the war or
interest in it.
1t means nothing to the American
Communists that AMERICA is still
at war, still without victory, still
without peace, still in danger.
They did not 60 to war FOR
America, but for Russia.
Accordingly, they are forthwith
getting out of war which does not
concern Russia, however ominously
it may still concern America.
All of this makes these things
abundantly clear:
There is no such thing, and never
has been such thing, as an AMERI-
CAN Communist or Communist
party.
There is only ONE kind of Com
munist and Communist party in all
the world-the RUSSIAN Commu-
mist and Communist party.
The prete n d rs have now
DROPPED THEIR MASKS, and
only those Americans who have been
fooled by the deception are shocked
by the revelation.
