Trkinu ORDERS From God

TT OW CAN we tell when it is
4 really God who commands us?
Most Christians today are SUSPECT
Gus of visions, and well we may be.
Too many crazy things have been
done by people who saw "visions"
for us to trust such experiences
very far
One way in which Gods or
ders come to us is in the Word of
God, particularly in the words
OF Christ. For example, take
one Of the hardest things Jesus
ever said: "LOVE YOUR ENE-
MES AND PRAY FOR THOSE
WHO PROSECUTE YOU" That
sounds tough. It is tough. But
it is a command. Yet don't
most of us leave that command
in the closed Bible and act as if
the words had never been said?
That brings up another question.
Is it likely that Ananias became
fond of Saul all at once? Hardly.
Ananias could not have liked the
man; there was then nothing about
him to like. We know from Paul's
own words that people generally
We're not attracted by his looks. Yet
Ananias, who could not have liked
Saul much less been fond of him,
went and called him Brother" and
gave him his start in the Christian
life.

the Word of God to children
who have not been receiving
the teaching. The children and
young people who have come
to the Bible classes have been
very eager for the Word Of
Truth. Last Thursday, as we
crowded the living-room of
one of the humble homes in
Desert Cove, the 26 children
and young folks present took
a very good interest in the
whole program. The stories
told by Mrs. Barton and pre-
sented with the use of the flan-
Telegraph, and the choruses
sung were just the things need
ed too for the training and the
seed planting in the hearts of
those seated on the floor and
seats near the open fire place.
The numbers are growing and
before long, God willing, we
will need a larger meeting
place for the Saw Butte
Heights weekly Bible School.
Some of these children, who
were not kept at home because
of sickness, took part on the
program last evening. A sta
tion-wagon load of them were
brought over from that area,
and they sang a chorus during
the program. We ask that you
The theocrat. [volume] (Zion City [i.e. Zion], Ill.) 1914-1949, 1948-01-07

pray that we might have wis
dom for conducting this part
of the work. We trust that, as
you read these reports, and
those coming from other parts
of the world, you may realize
that in your own neighbour
hood there is an opportunity
for missionary work. Where
there is a possibility of gather
ing two or three children to-
gether, who are not able to
get to the Bible School and
who are not getting Christian
training in the home, there is
a great blessing in store for the
one who will patiently teach
them.

How thankful we are to
have Deacon and Mrs. S. HI.
DePew back in their home in
Phoenix. They were both out
to the mid-week service last
week and also for the Lords
day morning service. We trust
that they will both be strength
ened for the days ahead. Also
returned from Zion are Mr..
and Mrs. Ivan Beall who were
out to the chapel Sunday morn
ing. They have returned to
the apartment in Phoenix
where their children have been
living during their absence. -
(515 No. End Street). Visiting
in Phoenix at the present time
are Mr.. and Mrs. Lloyd Baugh-
man from Downers Grove, Illi-
nois, and Mr.. and Mrs. Kale of
Twin Falls, Idaho, friends of
William Maltbys and Miss Lu-
lu Leech. The Kales have come
South during the past several
winters and have met with us
at the meetings occasionally.
Sunnyslope
The ladies have been very
busy preparing for the pro-
gram, the Christmas treats and
the preparation for helping
the needy. This group of
faithful workers, under the
leadership of Mrs. James Har-
wood, have been very faithful
in their sacrificial efforts when
called upon. In spite of the
Devils interference, the atten-
dance on Lords Day morning
was very good. Many of the
folks have winter colds, but
thanks be to God, God is de-
livering in answer to prayer.
The Bible School attendance
was IS and the morning SER
vice about 70. Special Christ
mas music was rendered by the
Chorus, including the old choir
number "The Birthday of the
King, with the solo part sung
by M. P. Barton. The music
sheets were furnished by John
D. Thomas of Zion. Emphasiz-
ed in that morning message
was the fact that the Babe of
Bethlehem was the Son of God
and God the Son just the same
as He had been when He Great
ed all things and when He went
to Calvary's cross, and that
God came down to earth and
took on the form of man that
He might die for us.
Last evening, December p,
we presented the Christmas
program. About 70 children
took part, presenting chorus
numbers, recitations, drills,
pantomines and a play. The
Christmas treats, about ia in
number, prepared by the
ladies group, were given out at
the close of the program, and
sad to say we needed about 20
or 80 more. The attendance
was beyond our expectation.
We had the LARGEST CON-
IRRIGATION of any occasion
so far in the chapel with 2O8
present. Since we now have

have their carols recorded for
use at the community Christ
mas tree in Sunnyslope. The
record was made by Mr..
Slough, editor of the local pa
per, SAND, on his "wire re-
corder." About 120 children
took part. The records were
made in the chapel since we
have 60 cycle power available,
which current is not used at
the Washington School.
The chapel chorus will sing
carols in different parts of
Sunnyslope on Christmas eve,
completing the evening with
a short program given at the

Home Builders Head
Fears New Controls
Harm Housing Boon

+ Milton J. Brock. president of the
National Association Of Home
Builders, is worried" for fear the
next Congress might impose new
Federal controls on the building In
dustry.
He expressed his fear at a press
conference preceding dinner given
in his honor by the Washington
Home Builders in the Hotel Statler
last night. New controls would have
disastrous effect" he said. on the
biggest housing boom this country
has ever experienced.
1T looks like 100000 new homes
! this year sure" Mr.. Brock repeated
last night at the dinner.
The 729,500 homes started during
the first nine months of the year,
he said, puts the program lS per
cent ahead of last year.
To Fight New Controls.
He said his association positively"
will oppose any attempt to put new
fcontro1s on the building industry,
including rent restrictions on new
construction.
He compared the estimated 1,000,-
900 homes that will be built this
year with 100000 in 1916, when con-
trolls were in effect.
Mr.. Brock denied reports that 90
per cent of the new homes being
built are costing over $4,000. He
cited recent Federal Reserve Board
studies showing that, last year. 40
per cent of all houses purchased
were made for families with an
nual incomes of $1,000 or less.
The boards 1948 survey OF con-
sumner finances shows clearly that
We are supplying homes that the
market can afford" he added. THE
survey shows that the medium price
paid for new houses was between
$500 and $S,5O0 and that 40 per
cent of the home-buyers last year
were veterans"
Sufficient Funds Needed.
Speaking of veterans, he said, 1--WE
will continue to build for veterans,
but to do so we must nave suf-
fcient financial support from lend
ing institutions" The association,
he said, favors action in Congress
to. increase this Federal aid.
Mr.. Brock discussed the housing
situation in Los Angeles, where
voters balloted two to one in a ref
erendum against $1,000, ,000, 600 pub
lie housing bill. That vote, he said,
indicates the people oppose public
housing when they have had an
opportunity to study its "socialistlc'
and taxation features.

Nhe Washington group. was chair
man at the dinner.

The Kiwanis Club was fortunate

day, February 5th, at Green
wood, Mr.. c. w. Setter, Service
Superintendent of the Dupont
Flant, SeafOrd, Del. He outlined to
cur group the Taft-Hartley Act
Labor Management Relations Act.
He stated that the Public Opin-
ion Index Poll Of typical union and
nOn-uniOn indicated that many of
those who said they did not like the
law were not familiar with the
laws specific provisions. The law
was a mandate of the people as ex-
pressed by the Congressman and
Senators who Over-rode the Presi-
dents veto; therefore, it should be
better understood.
A review was given of labor leg
islation including the National IN
dustrial Recovery Act of 1888 when
Codes of fair competition had to
recognize the right of labor to bar
gin collectively. Also, much of the
Wagner Act, even including it's
language and identical passages, is
retained in the Taft-Hartley Act.
Milford chronicle. [volume] (Milford, Del.) 1878-1974, 1948-02-13

He cited that the Delaware's law
passed April 5, 1947, regulating la
Dor unions and relations between
employers and employees, has
many provision similar to the
Taft-Hartley Act which was not
passed until June, 1947 That many
new privileges were now guaraI-
teed to workers and management
by new laws. The public also re-
ceives protection from this law.
The new law separates the judicial
and administlativ functions from
the prosecuting functions.
Mr.. Setter also stated that the
DUPONT employees have already
been assured of the COmpany's in
tentiOn of dealing fairly with en-
plOyees as individuals, and with
their duly elected union represen-
tatives; and, it was the cOmpany's
belief as eXemplified in its policies
that good labor relations come
from mutual confidence and respect
rather than through legislation.
