watchful supervision OF Ine Allleo
governments, as provided by. the
Yalta agreement.
Our Senate should be more watch
full than anybody. 1t should make
certain that they don't get away
with any undemocratic monkey
shines over there in Poland. This
certainly is the desire of all Amer
leans who wish to see the full beau
tv OF our democratic system ex-
tended to less enlightened nations
Our Senators must not be satisfied
with anything in Poland less per-
feet than we have here at home.
Already, however, the grapevine
Is carrying disquieting rumors from
that newly liberated land, rumors
indicating that the rights of mi
noritieS are not being properly pro-
tecteo. The center of complaint
appears to be province called Mis-
sissippsky. Certain OF the Missis-
sippskians have their own ideas con-
cerning the kind of democracy they
want and they are determined tc
have their way even If they have tc
fight the war all over again.
Propose Poll Tax.
For one thing, these Mississipps-
kians intend that only members Of
the master race shall vote.
To make sure OF this they pro-
pose that the ballot shall be given
only to persons with light COM
plexions and straight hair and
among these. only to those who
have paid what they call Pole
tax, which is very much like the
poll or head tax used for the same
purpose in some American prov
inceS.
Anticipating that some citizen,
with dark compilations and curly
hair may pay the Pole tax and show
UP at the voting places, the leaders
of this movement for minority rights
have devised further safeguards fol
the sancity of the ballot. Persons OF
the wrong complexion will be re-
ouired to take what is called an edu-
cation test. They will be asked tc
recite the new Polish constitution
backwards. The fact that the con-
stitution hasn't yet been written, will
give you some notion of the politica
genius possessed by the Mississippsky
master race.
But that isn't all. II by some
strange mischance one of the out
lawed citizens should demonstrate
his ability to recite the unwritter
constitution backwards, then the
election board will give him the
grandfather test That means sim.
ply that the would-be voter mus
prove that his grandfather had g
right to vote. Since there wasn't
any voting in grandfather'S day
you can see how that will work.
Lung Power Ticket
Leading this battle for better
and brighter democracy in Missis-
sippsky are said to be two probable
candidates for the Polish senate
name of Bilblowoff and Eastwind
They will run on what is known al
the Lung Power ticket.
Members of the United States
Senate can readily see what an asse
two men like Bilblowoff and East
wind woud be to the Polish senate
And they can appreciate the prin
ciple involved-the principle Of th'
minority's right to make mess o

truth in all the world we have to
prove there is a God is our con-
science reminding us each day and
hour of our hidden secret sin that
our loved ones and friends do not
know about.
But a greater lesson than this to
be learned from these verses of
scripture is that we who are saved
should tell our unsaved friends
about the Lord Jesus Christ.
When we find a good church that is
preaching the old-fashioned gospel
warning men of sin and judgment
to come, telling them of heaven and
the people that awaits the con-
verted soul, we should invite others
to attend the services.
In days of old, even in Bible days.
they had neither radio stations or
newspapers, yet multitudes came
out to hear the gospel, for every one
was saying, come and see man."
And today If we who are saved and
are Christians would follow Christ's
teaching by inviting our friends to
the house of God on the hot Sun
days and the cold Sundays instead
of inviting them to bathing beach
in the summer months and to some
warm movie theater in the winter
months, what wonderful world we
would have to live in!
May God bless You and give you
courage to begin doing personal
work today.
