Prayer does not always get

more tortured heart. And what

was not answered. The cup did not

Power Of Darkness

NNE THING that must have
- troubled our Lord was lack of
sympathy. Peter, James and John
were comfortably asleep, evidently
without the slightest notion of what
he was suffering. But there was
worse than lack of sympathy. some
where in the dark city one Of
Jesus supposed friends, the man
called Judas, was even then slink-
ing through the alleys with murder
in his heart.
Jesus well knew what was In
store for him. He knew the San
hedrin would call him a bias
phemer, he knew what the
Romans would do with him,
once they got their hands on
him. Worse than this must
have been the tragic sense Of
failure.
Il would, but ye would not" he
had said in tears to this very city:
a city full of enemies who should
have been his friends. of unbelievers
who should have believed, a city
he loved, but which had nothing
for him but thorns and cross.
All this was on Jesus heart that
highland as many Christians be-
lieve, far more. One of the most
profound Christian thinkers has
suggested that the heaviest, most
painful shadow on Jesus white
soul was the sense of guilt. not his
own but for the sins of the world.

France and Italy Act
For Economic Union
BY the Associated Press


PARIS, Jan. 22.-France and italy
today signed a report looking to full
economic union between the two
countries within six years.
The report will now be drafted
into treaty form, to be approved by
the two Parliaments. A year after
they agree, tariffs will be abolished
at the Franco-Italian borders.
French Foreign Minister Robert
Schuman presided at today's cere-
mony in the Foreign Ministry. The
heads of the two delegations signed
the report-Jean lie Torneau for
France and Giovannia -Battista
Bertone for Italy.
Mr.. Schuman said in a short
speech:
"Only by unifying themselves
economically can European coun-
tries emerge from the difficulties
brought by the war, and move to-
ward political union. France and
Italy will have the honor of setting
the example"
The report calls for the establish
ment of a customs union council, a
permanent body representing the
economic interests of the two cour-
tries. Two years after 1t starts
work, it is to set the time when
economic union will be complete.
Each year, this council will plan
further steps for the next year. 1t
will also advise the governments on
the decisions they must make to
unity their production plan.

Hands Off in China

China.
I'VE must keep our hands off
unless 1t is definitely established
that external aggression is interfer-
ing with China's territorial integ-
rity. Otherwise, we should let peo-

Senator Thomas, who once wrote
o book on Chinese political thought,
was asked whether he believes the
successful drive of the Communists
does constitute external aggression.
He said he does not know.
Il simply say that we should carry
