Golden Text: Romans. They which are the children ot the flesh these are not the children of God.
 The following selections are taken from the Lesson Sermon:
 From the Bible: AS every man hath received the gifts, even so minister the same one to another, as good stewards of the manifold grace of God. q Peter.
 From Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures, by Mary Bak- CT Eddy. The eternal truth destroys what mortals seem to have learned from error, and mans real exist ence as a child of God comes to light. Truth demonstrated is eter- nal life. Mortal man can never rise from the temporal detris of error, belief in sin, sickness and death, until he learns that God is the only life Page 288).

Religious Revival Hitting So. California; Thousands
 Are Hitfing Sawdusf Trail

LOS ANGELES, Nov. 2-lRt-Old- style religion is sweeping the city of the Angels with an evangelistic show overshadowing even Billy Sunday.
 Since it started six weeks ago more than 100000 from the citys 100000 population have filed into circus tent on the fringe of downtown Los Angeles. And the' re still pouring in at the rate of 10000 each night.
 They come to hear the preach ments of a dynamic, handsome young college president named Billy Graham. Churchmen say he's started the greatest religious re- 1ival in the history of Southern California.
 Graham's oratory is eloquent; his doctrines are home-spun From the singing, shouting multitudes, thous- ands have hit the sawdust trail and announced publicly their decision to return to Christ.
 One of them was brilliant track star at the University of Southern California before the war. His name is Lou Zamperini. An Air Force Captain, he crashed in the Pacific, spent Al days on raft, then lived through months in a Japanese prison camp.
 Tt is difficult for anyone who came through the things I did to forget God, but I did," Zamperini testified.
 Another convert is Stuart Hamb- len, popular cowboy crooner and sportsman.
 Graham is 30, nephew of North Carolina's Senator Frank Graham and President of little Northwestern Bible College in Indianapolis. He wears garish ties, argyle socks and an irresistible grin He has toured this country and England, once drew 75,O00 to Soldier Field, Chi cago.

 DISCUSSES
 AID PLANS
Wants 10 Build Up Dede. ve|oped Foreign Areas
 10 Benefit World

WASHINGTON Nov. 2-R R- President Truman said today his point four program for building uE underdeveloped foreign areas will help prove that the American sys- tenn is the sest for the peoples o1 the world.
 In an informal talk to the Ameri- can Society of Civil Engineers the President also declared he be- lisves in big plans-plans that are big enough to meet situation one cannot see at present.
 MT. Truman said the aim of the point four proposal is to develop the worlds resources for the benefit of the worlds peoples, not their explorations. He first advanced the plan as item four in the interna- tional program laid out in his in- augural address.
 The President heads west this afternoon for a ten-hour visit to the twin cities of Minneapolis and St. Paul.
 Tomorrow is Truman Day al Minnesotas centennial celebration and the President has a full sched- ule, topped by 20-minute address in the St. Paul auditorium at 7:3O pm. PSF tomorrow. It will be broadcast nationally by CBS.
 Truman said he hopes engineers doctors, and others with special skills will inform themselves on point four.
 He added that if the standard of living of the world is raised just two percent, American factories will never catch up with the de- mand for goods.
 The President, in his discussion of big plans in contrast with little ones, said the next census will show an American population of around 150 ,000 00O. He said it is our busi- ness not to plan for that figure, but to anticipate population double that in the next 100 to 150 years.
 We can't get the sights too high,' he said.

LEWIS NOW
 ANGLING TN PEACE MOVE
Tells Governor of Indriana Union Ready for Set-
 tlement Now
(By the Associated Press)

John L. Lewis told the Governor of Indiana today that he is ready to negotiate prompt coal peace pact with Indiana mine operators or those of "any other state"
 The declaration from the United Mine Workers leader was in re- sponse to an appeal from Coy. Henry F. Schricker for an "imme- diate" strike settlement.
 The Governor declared a state of emergency in Indiana as a result of. the coal cutoff and advised lewis that the situation was acute and tragic" ..
 Lewis replied that his union has ,een trying to negotiate a peace pact for many months past"
 "Our efforts" Lewis wired tht indiana Governor, have been stnle. mated by major industrial ant inancial interests.
 WILL NEGOTIATE
 You are free to advisc the coa operators of Indiana, Lewis tolc he Governor, that the representa- sives of the United Mine Workers will negotiate with them alone anc independent of the operators of any other state if they desire to make n agreement for Indiana.
 If they indicate such a desire )ur representatives will promptly acct with them to work out ten- atiye agreement which will ce pre- ented to the policy committee ot ne United Mine Workers of Amer ca for approval when it assemblies Il convention Monday afternoon November T."
 Lewis suggested that, meantime Indiana can take care of emer- gency coal needs by rationine existing stocks held by steel com- panies and other manufacturers.
 ANGLING FOR PEACE
 The Lewis offer of negotiations on single-state basis was ors, more in 9 series of indications that the UNIV chief might be angling or quick peace.
 Less than day after CIO Presi- dent Philip Murray signed a pre- cent-setting welfare plan with Beth- cedent-setting welfare plan with Bethlehem Steel Corp, Lewis made move. He suddenly called a min- CTS union policy meeting for next Monday in Chicago.
 But why Chicago? The site sug- gested a possible coal peace pact with Illinois producers. Some ol them have been reported impatient for a settlement

$29o EACH I5 BILL FOR SPENDING
Pedeetime Record Next Year Congress Tax
 Battle Looms

WASHINGTON. Nov. 2-R- President Truman's forecast that the government will run 5ls billion further into the red this fiscal year set the stage today for a rousing taxes-vs.-spending battle in Congress.
 The President now figures:
 1. Federal spending will soar to a peacetime record of $43, 800 ,0O0 900 in this fiscal year, which ends next June 30. This is equivalent to $29O for each man, woman and child in the country, or nearly one-fourth of the national income.
 3. The government will be plunged 100000 in the red because it's income will total only $38 ,O00,OO0,000 with tax rates what they are now. This would place the federal debt next June 30 at ap- proximately $26O.OOO, ,O0O,O0
 MT. Truman's new spending fore cast was made yesterday in a re- vision of his estimates last January on federal financial operations in the 12 months ending next June 30.
 The forecast anticipates that the 81st Congress will add $4,OO0, ,O0O ,OOO in spending authorizations between next January and July to supple ment the billions it authorized at its recently concluded sessions.
 The administration figures that Congress practically committed it. self to providing the extra funds when it enacted or let stand the program of activities on which the spending would be incurred.
