THE GATES OF NEW EIFE
BY REV. GEORGE S. WILSON

There is place in the revelation
eof st. John where he describes the
Holy City and tells of the drround-
ing wall having twelve gates lin it,
three to the east, three to the west,
three to the north and three to the
south. All gates lead into the same
city and within the city those who
enter worship the same Lamb and
live in the same Fellowship.
So there are many ways which
lead to the Christ who is the one
way to Life. There are as many var
jieties tof religious experience as
there are persons who have had
them. The great mistake has been
that he thinks this way to the Saw
ing Christ was the only and final
way. This no doubt accounts for the
great number of denominations
which have sprung up and continue
to spring r1p year after year. Some
one has created a story about two of
the men Jesus cured of blindness
on different occasions. AS the story
goes the two men met later in the
City. Here they testified to what
God had done for them and they re-
counted their experience One told
of how Jesus had taken clay and
made lit into mud and putt it on his
eyes and then he had received his
sight. The other told how Jesus had
just restored his sight without use
of mud. Soon q great argument arose
over whether ffle mud was needed
or not and they separated angry
with each other and one started the
sc "Muddite' church and the other was
the founding father of the Anti
muddite" church.
We all see how absurd this can
become. But we too argue over triv-
ialities when we should be shouting
together "Once l was blind and now
/ can see" There are many roads
which can lead to the Christ but the
important thing is that every per
son take one of those roads.
Let us remember that Paul did
not look down on the experience of
his companions who c0npanied with
him, neither did Lyddia and the
.jailer of the Philippi start separate
churches because they had been
brought to Christ in different ways.

have confessed the crime to Detroit

staff members continued their in
vestigation today Of the Viers Mill
Village housing project neal
Wheaton, Md, to get information
for committee hearings on the
1,400-home development.
Spokesman said a special SUBJ
committee probably will open hear
ings next week on charges that the
four-room bungalows, offered for
$1,000, are over-priced. Appraisers
hired by the committee have set
lower values.
Government appraisals Of $S,700
however, were defended by Morgan
B. Callahan, Washington loan guar
antee officer for the Veterans Ad-
ministration.
Mr.. Callahan said he picked five
Of his best appraisers to estimate
value of the homes and that he re-
lied on their judgment. While lower
appraisal could be made for con-
struction alone, the $8,700 is figured
on street construction, land values
anr profit at the huge project, he
said.
In addition, the VA official said
specifications turned over to the VA
by the builders include "a long list
of ref1nements to be added to the
homes after they are completed. HI
said all specifications must be met
in a final appraisal when the homes
are finished before the VA will ap.
prove loan guarantees for any Of

ment yesterday proposal that 1t be
made mandatory for hospitals to re-
