Fellowship is impossible where

after we have fought global war
to stop such inhumanity of man to
man.
1t would be a surprise even to
some Christian people to learn that
God is no respecter of persons"
that with Him a man is not re-
CclVed because he is Of a particular
race, color, education or social posi-
ton.
God created all men, He loves all
men, Christ died for all men, and
every Christian ought to be desper-
ately concerned that all men should
hear about their Saviour and come
to know the love Of God.
The church Of Christ has its
greatest opportunity now to show
that the things it processes to be-
Ieve actually work in the relation

Peter had learned about Gods
love for the Gentiles by the vision
given him concerning Cornelius.
(Read Acts 1O:1-33.)
Peter was Jew, and God now
used this vision to teach him a much
needed lesson about the carrying of
the gospel to the Gentiles. The Jews
We're (and still are-let US renem-
Der iU Gods chosen people. How
ever, they were not chosen for their
own comfort. convenience or glory,
but that they might be channels for
the outA0Wing of Gods blessing to
all nations.
Cornelius was typical Of those in
every nation who are ready for the
preaching Of the gospel. He was
God-fearing, righteous man, but
nonethtlcss in need Of redemption.
God brought this man, who was
ready to receive the message, to-
gothcr with the man Peter, WHO
was prepared to preach it, and the
result was salvation.

ST. LOUIS. Feb. 28.-Voters
of Missouri have put their stamp OF
approval on a new million-dol
State constitution, which, advocates
say, will streamline the government
and halt abuses growing up in 10
years under the old code of laws.
Approval was emphatic, latest I'M
official figures from yesterdays cleo

100000 and 10000 votes. In 3,263
of 4,543 precincts the alternatives
totaled 286,376 and the negatives
-146,584.
Gov. Phil M Donnelly, learning of
the result, said that "the people

But Frank B. Williams of Spring

had formed an association to wage
bitter warfare on the constitution,

The constitution "streamlines"
the government by providing for the
grouping of more than 70 State

The British Prime Minister already
has stated. he recalled. that Britain
will throw all her resources into the
battle of the Pacific once Germany
is broken.
Un stating that the war
against Japan was not mentioned

issued at the White House Feb
ruary 20 which described his de-
parture from Yalta and trip to
the Suez and Egypt. That state.
ment said that the Alexandria
meeting permitted new and i'm
portant discussions of at least
one subject which they tRoose-
welt and ChurchilD could not
take up before. That had to do
with Japan and the war in the
Pacific where Soviet Russia is
a neutral power"
This statement was called to
the Presidents attention at his
shipboard news conference and
he reiterated that the japanese
war was not discussed at Alex
andria.)
The President said he did not
know whether Russia would be asked
to enter any discussion of Pacific
problems before the defeat of the
Nazis. Russia has been completely
neutral toward Japan, he asserted,
and we are respecting that neu-
trality.
The President said he has no plans
for a Pacific war council this year

simo Chang Kai-shek. Nor did he
have In mind talk with Gen
Charles De Gaulle, although he said
he'd be glad to see the French
leader any time.

does not realize there will be a

pitulated.
There was no single accomplish
ment of the Crimean Conference
that stood out above the others, Mr.
Roosevelt declared. He said prog
ress was made all along the line
just as there has been progress to-
ward an improved world every few
months since the war began.

A B o A R d PRESIDENTIAL
CRUISER IN THE MEDITERRA-
MEAN, Feb. Is Delayed. The
Crimean conference was glittering
bit of history in setting which
President Roosevelt described as
Newport, HOLLYWOOD and the South
rolled into one. 1t blended gro
tesquely with the grim despolation
of war
The trappings, a measure of ar
tificial luxury, were brought in for
the occasion by the Soviet govern
ment, playing host for the first time
to meeting of the President, Pre-
mier Stain and Prime Minister
Churchill. They had to be import
ed from Moscow because the Nazis
had left almost nothing.
Russia provided the best in food
and drink, stats from the famous
Metropole and Grand Hotels-even
BARRIERS and manicurists. For those
who wanted them, and few did,
there were vodka and caviar-even

Yet always in the background were
lasting scenes of wartime desolation.
All about was evidence of the ebb
and flow of battle-building in rub

starkly erect. a pillaged countryside,
skeletons still lying beside the roads.
That was the picture Of contrasts
drawn for reporters of the three
major news services who joined the
presidential party today for the trip
home. Some of the other details
they obtained in talks with the
President and other members of the
delegation.
Mr.. Roosevelt lived in an impress

woods, flourish there.

categorically, Mr.. Roosevelt said, the
conference did look ahead over 3
great many years, over period as
long as humanity can be expected
to believe in the principles espoused
by the United Nations. 1t looked at
the human race, he added, and not
with any idea 1t will end in so years
Problems Of Small Countries.
In addition, the President said
the conference dwelt at length on
problems presented by small coun-
tries with static economies and liv-
ing standards and on means Of help
ing them. This was on the premise
that a nation that Is not moving
forward and lettering her stand
ards Is more potential war danger
than one that is advancing.
Aides praised the manner ir
which Mr.. Roosevelt presided a.
chairman and moderator at thu
conference. They said he was abls
to produce agreements in severa
fields in which the principals origi-
nally did not see eye to eye.
Two instances apparently were
the decisions on voting procedure Of
the projected United Nations Coun.
Gil and on a new governmental ane
territorial setup for Poland. Mr.
Roosevelt did not discuss these
points with newsmen. however.
OF all the top-f1ight advisers who
accompanied Mr.. Roosevelt to Ii
-vadia Palace, only his personal CHIEF
of staff, Admiral William D. Leahy
and his naval aide, Vice Admiral
Wilson Brown, returned with him
The others left the party at va
rious points and on various mis-.
sions.
ROsenman Goes to Europe.
Presidential Counsel Samuel I
Rosenman joined the President at
Algiers to help prepare while cross
ing the Atlantic the report to Con-
gress and to discuss civilian supplies
for liberated areas. Judge Rosenmar
already had gone to Europe to survey
supply requirements.
Mrs. John Boettiger, the Chief
Executives daughter, made the en-.
tire trip, but not in an official ca
pacity. She took care OF minor de-
tails, such as deciding who would
dine with her father.
Fala, the Presidents scottie, was
left at home.
The westward crossing of the At.

was uneventful.

Air protection was available the

Mr.. Roosevelt occupied the cap

Mrs. Boettiger was assigned the
flag quarters.
Women on naval vessels at sea
are a rarity even in peacetime. So
when destroyer slid up alongside
the cruiser, her commander caught
sight of Mrs. Boettiger standing on
deck in a fur jacket, took another
good look and exclaimed:

Silent on Length of Occupation.
The arrangement is subject to
change, particularly in the proposed
British and American zones, because
of a decision to offer France an OPP
portunity to keep a thumb on part
of the Reich.
The President was not ready to
say how long American troops might
remain in Germany
Mr.. Roosevelt viewed the confer
ence at Yalta as one of a series of
steps toward a better world. Almost
with exultation, he said the Ameri-
can public and press were quite
right in saying with virtual unanim-
ity that the parley was q great
achievement.
He said he believed the United
Nations organization will develop
into the best method ever devised
for stopping war and eradicating
some of its causes.
Mr.. Roosevelt even visualized Ger
many and Japan as future members
of the organization, as such time
as they have proved themselves
worthy of places in it.
| But he was insistent that they
first must purge themselves. reverse
militaristic tendencies they have
shown for decades and demonstrate
an ability to live peaceably among
nations.
do you think" he was asked.
that Germany and Japan should
ever in the foreseeable future be
permitted to rearm?"
No, he REPLIED adding that he
hoped armament would decrease all
along the line, even among the AL
lied Big Five-America, Britain,
Russia, China and France.
The Chief Executive predicated
his belief that Germany and Japan
can do an about face on the rela-
lively short history of their mill
tarism. Germany became militar-
istic after 1890, Japan after she first
admitted outsiders in 1856, he said.
Nations that can do that in such a
comparatively short time, he went
on, can go the other way-although
it may take another so or so years.
Pacific War Not Mentioned.
One decision omitted from the
conferences final communique, dis
closed when Turkey declared war
on Germany and Japan, was that
no power not in the war would be
invited to the United Nations meet
ing at San Francisco Gable dis
patches have mentioned March / as
the deadline for those countries to
get into the war;
Presidential aides did not interpret
this as meaning, however, that
Russia necessarily would declare
war on Japan any time soon. Soviet
eligibility, they said, has been well
established in the European con-
flict.
1 The war against Japan, Mr..
Roosevelt told his news conference,
was not even mentioned either at
Yalta or at a brief meeting with
Mr.. Churchill later at Alexandria.
