Jesus performed a mightier

Lazarus from the dead, than if
He had responded Immediate

brother from a bed of sickness.
The prayer of the nobleman
was answered in a far more

arduous journey back to Cap

the nobleman to rise from a

Divine Healing makes real
Gods presence and blessing in
our bodies, as we'll as in our
spirits. The Word of God
teaches the sacredness of the
human body, in that it was
created to be the temple Of the
Living God, as we'll as the habi-
tation of mans spirit. Not only
is it true that ''the body is for
the Lord" but child of God
has the right to take "the Lord
for the body" in order to OBJ
tain the blessing of healing.
Why should it be thought i'm
possible for the Creator to re-
move abnormal conditions in
the body and thus bring about
healthy functioning of it's
various organs?
Divine Healing is taking God
by faith for the removal of dis
ease from the body and it's
restoration to health; just as
Divine Salvation is taking God
by faith for the removal of sin
from the heart. The Centurion
obtained healing for his dying
servant because he took Jesus
at His Word without desiring
Him to come to his home. The
nobleman, on the other hand,
especially requested Jesus
presence, saying, "Come down
ere my child die" but Jesus
refused his request, for He
wished to teach him the high
er truth that "BELIEVING is
SEEING" Every one knows
that "seeing is believing" but
the Word of God alone teaches
the more blessed truth that
believing is seeing"

Don't Be Surprised
II We Win, Taylor Says

CUMBERLAND. Md, Oct. 49,
Don't be surprised If we win this
election" Senator Taylor Of Idhao,
Progressive Party candidate for
Vice President, told 300 hearers dur
ing the Western Maryland lap of
his campaign.
Henry Wallace's running mate
carries his battle for the vice presi-
idency to Wheeling. w. Va, today.
He told his small audience last
night that there is a strong under
current sweeping across the country.
People are thinking and talking"
His listeners paid so cents each
for admission to the rally and con-
tributed $500 in donations.
Senator Taylor said the interna-
tional crisis is the deliberate crea-
ton of the Wall Street-military
clique which took over control of the
Government from a week and vacil-
lating Chief Executive -"
Harry Truman" he continued,
"is not bad little fellow but he

Just how many votes Mr.. Crump
can take away from President Tru-
man Is question. Mr.. Crump suf-
fered sharp defeat in. the Demo-
cratic primaries this year. His can
didates for the gubernatorial and
senatorial nominations fell by the
wayside. But to count Mr.. Crump
out as major influence in this elec-

battle and will be right up to the
finish.
Democrats Explain Claims.
Democratic leaders, explaining
their claims of victory, point out
that in the primaries this year the
Democrats polled 431, 900 votes and
the Republicans only 10000. They
admit that the States Rights candi-
date may receive as many as $4,000
votes, and that they may lose as
many as $4,000 Democratic votes to
Gov. Dewey, either by reason of
actual voting or because some of
the Democrats fail to vote at all.
The vote in the Republican pri-
Evening star., 1948-10-19

mary was much lighter than the
Republican vote will be in the elec-
ton. BY adding their expected
losses and allowing for the regular
Republican vote, the democrats
estimate they will come in ahead
in the presidential race by $4,000
or 10000. This is pretty close
figuring.
On the Republican side, the lead
ers are talking Of rolling up a 10000
lead in the first and second con-
gressiohal districts-the two Eastern
districts-and breaking about even
in the third district. They also
hope to hold the Democratic plur-
ality in Shelby County down to
about 10000. They say that they
do not believe the Democrats in
the rest of the State will overcome
the 10000 lead they expect by rea-
son of the voting in the Eastern
section and the falling off the
Democratic lead in Shelby County,
and that Coy. Dewey will nose out
President Truman.

Hebert Again Asks Dewey
For Loyalty Probe Views

Representative Hebert, Democrat,
of Louisiana yesterday renewed his
demand that Gov. Dewey say before
the election whether or not the
Congress can expect your co-opera-
ton in fighting Communism"
Mr.. Hebert, a member OF the
House Committee on Un-American
Activities, first made the demand
in a letter to Gov. Dewey month
ago.
Failing to get what he. considered
q satisfactory answer, Mr.. Hebert
addressed a new communication to
the Republican presidential candi-
date saying:
II personally think that as O
member of Committee on Un-
American Activities I have

will release the loyalty files and let
us see the so-called Condor letter"

clear to take fortnight stand on

Close Race indicated
In Tennessee, With
Truman Favored
By Gould Lincoln
Stor Staff Correspondent

KNOXVILLE, Tenn, Oct. 19.-
The Dewey Truman contest In Ten
nessee looks like horse race-with
odds. favoring President Truman.
However, Democratic leaders them
selves say the vote will be close.
They figure to win by from $4,000
to $4,000 votes. The Republicans,
on the other hand, claim Gov.
Dewey will nose out Mr.. Truman,
but place no figure for his margin
of victory.
The Republicans base their victory
predictions on the strong anti-Tru-
man feeling among the Democrats
because of the Presidents civil rights
program and on the fact that the
Democrats have had terrific intra-
party strife in the State this year.
Would Get Only 10 Electors.
If President Truman carries Ten
nessee he still will win only 10 out
of the II of the States votes in the
electoral college. Two of the Dem
ocratic electors have announced
they will not vote for Mr.. Truman,
but for Gov. Strom Thurmond of
South Carolina, States Rights
Democratic nominee. Further, these
two electors are on the States
Rights list of electors. They are
Malcolm Hill of Sparta and Pres
ton Parks of Summerville. Should
Gov. Dewey win the State, all II
of the electoral votes would be cast
for him.
That the Democrats are worried
is indicated by their efforts in the
Eastern part of the State. In past
years they have taken victory as an
accepted fact. Now they have set
up extensive and active headquar-
ters in Knoxville and other cities
in this section. The yare taking 40
chances, especially since there is a
real fight on over the election Of a,

Crump Leads Fight on Truman.
Head and forefront of the Demo-
cratic bitterness against President
Truman in Tennessee is the veteran
Democratic boss of Memphis, Ed
Crump-who in the past has been
a compelling figure in Democratic
politics throughout the State be-
cause of the heavy Democratic
pluralities he was able to roll up in
his own Shelby County. Mr.. Crump

ton of Mr.. Truman this year. He
