The lecture, in part, follows:
Throughout all ages signs OF
Christian Science. the Science OF
Christ, have appeared. On Mount
Sinai, when Moses thought was
lifted above the drab wilderness OF
human experience, he saw some
thing of the true nature of God, and
he endeavored to awaken the wan
dering children of Israel to this rev.
elation. Those who hearkened unto
the voice of the Lord and gave
ear to His commandments by keep
ing His statutes. were healed OF dis
ease; their fidelity to the law was
blessed of God.
Centuries later Jesus of Nazareth
declared: Thou shalt love the
Lord thy God with all thy heart.
and with all thy soul. and with all
thy mind. This is the first and
great COMMANDMENT, He proved
the power of God through his
mighty works; and those of his i'm

vine Spirit was revealed, we're also

VISA URGED TO KEEP
 ALASKA SHIPPING IN
 CONTROL TO JUNE 30

Gov. Gruening, Edwin G. Arnold, Division of Territories and Island Possessions, and Delegate E. L. Bart lett have met in Washington with John w. Snyder, Director of the Of- flee of War Mobilization and Re- conversion, urging that control by the War Shipping Administration of the operation of American vessels in the Alaska trade be continued at least until June 30.
 Such control was given to the War Shipping Administration under the Second War Powers Act which has been extended until June 30, l946. Adoption of the proposal presented to MT Snyder would postpone the proposed increase in Alaska marine rates by the American operators up- on their resumption of control from the War Shipping Administration.

DELEGATE SEEKS DECLARATION ON
 ISSUE ON LANDS

Delegate E. L. Bartlett has met with General Land Office officials in Washington in an attempt to obtain a declaration of policy with reference to waiving shore line re- strictions on homestead claims when warranted.
 The public land regulation re- serve a space of 80 rods between homestead entries on the shores of all navigable waters in Alaska, but the Secretary of the Interior, in his discretion is authorized to waive such restrictions and restore the reserved shore space to entry However, it has been brought to the delegates attention that de- cisions on countless homestead ap- plications which the General Land Office believes conflict with shore line regulations have been held up for weeks and months and some times years and little evidence has been produced that the secretary used his discretionary powers to waive the regulations in deserving cases.
 Delegate Bartlett has urged in- mediate settlement of the home stead applications, long pending in the Interior Department, which are meritorious of exception from the shore line restrictions.
 It is believed that a recent order of the President concerning public land throughout Alaska and the States bears on the hesitant hand ling of many homestead claims throughout Alaska. The Presidents executive order withdraws all public land containing radioactive mir erals in connection with the atomic bomb, which is of some concern in Alaska since much of the land in the Territory has not been sur veyed for mineral content.

NELSON FINALLY SNARE5 ELUSIVE
 LA OPEN LUCRE

LOS ANGELES, Jan. 8 n Lord Byron Nelson, as automatic as ever, won the 20th annual Los Angeles Open yesterday with 284 for the 72-hole tour of the Riviera course. And as the golfing fraternity picked up sticks and left for the San Francisco Open, which starts tomorrow, the burning question was who's gonna stop him?
 His 71-69-72-72 added up five strokes better than Benny Hogan's 289 and nobody threatened Nelson after Sam Snead, defending cham pion, and Jim Terrier, Chicago, faded after trailing by only two strokes at the end of 54 holes.
 Nelson's first prize was $2,666.67 in Victory Bonds. Hogan took $l,86667 for second place.
 Nelson now has won 20 of his last 25 major tournaments. But this was particularly satisfying. The Los Angeles Open title had eluded him in 12 previous tries.

Gospel Singers Take Part
In Jewish Passover
Services at Synagogue

The "old-fashioned" Gospel sing
ers were the guest singers at a
Passover service at the Israel syna-
gogue at oath and Emerson, Sun
day April Ia, IL o'clock.
The Gospel singers sang three
numbers and participated in the
beautiful services, which included
slipping from the cup Of wine, a
symbol Of joy, and the breaking
of Matsah, which was broken in the
middle and one part hidden, to be
eaten at the end Of the meal as the
Abdomen, in remembrance of the
time when the Jewish ancestors, on
Pesah night in the days Of the
Temple of old, would partake Of the
PasChal lamb.
The wine and the Matsah were
drunk and eaten between songs and
responsive readings by Rabbi Jacob
J. Weinstein and the audience. The
meeting closed with the singing Of
the National Anthem.
This is believed to be the first
time a protestant group has par
ticipated in the Passover services
of the Jewish people, in this city.
