SERMONETTE
Serving q Risen soviour-
As Ministers and Servants
Matt. 2o:25-2s

Christ said that He came not
to be ministered unto. but 10
minister. The thing that gained
Him the most immediate follow
ing was His miracles. Whenever
He served others by healing and
casting out devils great throngs
of people followed Him. They
wanted what He could do for.
them. They cared not for His
message because they were con-
cerned with their bodies. rather
than their souls. Yet Jesus did
not fail to minister to their bodies
even tho He knew that their souls
were of far greater Importance
and In far greater need. Some
of those whom He healed stay
ed with Him and learned to love
and serve Him as their Lord.
We are not greater than our
Lord. We, too, must serve the
bodies of mankind. God has great
need of doctors, nurses, social
workers, teachers, yes and Of
housekeepers and cooks people
who will care for the bodies of
men and women and children
with the same love and compass
sion Jesus showed when on earth.
But this service, to be service
for Christ, must be done for love
of the souls of men, not merely
because of compassion for their
physical suffering. We recall that
Jesus said that whatsoever we
do for the least of these people
we do for him. This makes all
labor done In His name and honor
AS CHILDREN OF GOD = Rom
ans STAB; John 1:11-12. OF all
the ways we may serve the Risen
Christ, none is more wonderful or
fruitful than as Children OF God.
This is the greatest privilege
granted to man = to be called
child of God and to be treated
as such. Yet this great privilege
entails duties. How frequently
parents are judged by their chill
dren. well-behaved children call
forth the remark, "They must
have a very fine mother" while
other children cause people to
say, "There must be something
wrong in the home. Their apr
ents are to blame"
What are people thinking about
our Father when they observe our
actions or hear our words? Are
we honoring our heavenly Father
by our lives?
What are some of the qualities
of our Father which we may show
forth to the world: Do our lives
show Christ's joy and peace? Are
we animated by His compassion.
mercy. gentleness. and love? Have
we learned of Christ faith, trust,
hope, endurance?
Let us go forth knowing that
we walk with the risen Christ, the
Son OF God, and that we have been
called through adoption to be
of God, also.

law and comfy in conducting its relations
with the United States"
This is not the first time the Communist
regime in Bulgaria has been called on the
carpet by the State Department, though
previous protests on our part have been
concerned largely with Bulgaria's violation
of pledges in its peace treaty to maintain
civilized standards of justice and equity
toward its own people as well as toward
resident foreigners and foreign interests.
Those previous protests have got precisely
nowhere, being rebuffed by Bulgarias Red
rulers as intolerable interference with the
country's sovereignty and dignity. 1t is
therefore doubtful that our current ad-
monition will accomplish anything unless
we couple our words with either break
in diplomatic relations or specific state
ment of our intention to do 50 If the
Bulgarian governments misconduct does
not stop.

Support for New Airport

1t is gratifying to know that public
sentiment in favor of early construction
of q second major airport for Washington
is becoming more widespread and more
insistent. The recent series of accidents
at the National Airport has stimulated
demands for an additional airline terminal
in the Metropolitan Area, but the demands
must continue long after accidents occur
If remedial action is to be assured. The
decision of the Washington Board of Trade
to lend its active support to the move
ment will be welcomed by those who are
gravely concerned about conditions at the
congested airport at Gravelly Point, across
the river.
The Board of Trade, through its aviation
committee, has made thorough study of
the airport situation here. Like the Civil
Aeronautics Board, the National Capital
Park and Planning Commission and other
groups, the board sees the need for an
alternate landing and takeoff field to take
some of the traffic load from the harassed
National Airport. A second airport is a
long-range relief measure, at best. But,
as the board points out, there are i'm
mediate steps which can be taken to re-
duce accident risks at National in addition
to the ban on fighter planes there. The
proximity of Boiling Air Force Base and
the Anacostia Naval Air Station to the
National Airport necessarily involves an
overlapping of air traffic patterns that has
proved to be hazardous in the past and that
will grow more hazardous as traffic grows
There is much merit, therefore, in the
boards recommendation that all military
flying in the immediate vicinity of Wash
ington's only airline terminal be stopped.
There are indications that Congress will
hear more about the proposal to inactivate
the Boiling and Anacosta fields when the
new session opens.

Futile Admonitions

In our relations with CommuniSt-ruled
countries everywhere we are confronted
with a pattern of policy and conduct
which is as amazing as it 10 exasperating.
In all of them we are officially stigmatized
as ruthless imperialists fomenting and
preparing a war for their subjugation to
our schemes of world domination" But,
coupled with these generalized denuncia-
tions of us, goes systematic mistreatment
of our accredited diplomatic representa-
tives which has no parallel in modern
times. The incidence OF this misconduct
varies in location and scope. Yesterday
it was our consular stan in Manchuria.
Before that it was our legation in Hungary.
Now, the focus has shifted to Bulgaria,
where our Minister, Donald R. Heath, is
being grossly traduced, vilified, and even
threatened with criminal action on the
basis of charges made against him in the
confessions" by defendants in the treason
trials" now going on.
That our Government does not intend
to ignore these Bulgarian breaches OF
international comfy and decency is shown
by the sharp dressing down administered
by the State Department to DR.. Peter
Voutov, Bulgarian charge d'aha1res IN
Washington. Summoned to the depart
ment, he was bluntly asked what his coun-
try's intentions" were, and was informed
that the conduct of his government raised
the question of continuing normal rela-
tions" with Bulgaria. The department
charges that the Bulgarian government
is making deliberate attempt" to involve
MIR. Heath in the current treason trials on
the basis of "fanciful tales completely
fabricated" Furthermore, the department
says that these latest actions against our
Minister are not isolated but come aS the
climax to "a series of indignities and re-
strictions, including false charges against
American officials, intimidation and perse-
cution of local Bulgarian employees, refusal
to issue visas to personnel assigned to the
legation, and various restrictions on travel
and housing" From all this, the depart
ment logically deduces an apparent in
tention" on the part OF the Bulgarian
government ITO disregard international

Expedition to Mount Sinui

Many Washingtonians naturally are
interested in the expedition to Mount Sinai
In which the Library of Congress is col
laborating with the American Foundation
for the Study Of Man. It will be to this
city that the half million photographs to
be made at Saint GATHERINGS Monastery
will be brought back. These reproductions
OF ancient books and manuscripts will be
valuable accessions to the worlds greatest
photographic establishment. Scholars will
come to study them from many different
lands and over long period Of time.
The existence of the rich treasures of
Saint GATHERINGS has been appreciated
ever since 1874, when the German savant,
Doctor Constantine Tischendorf, visited
the monastery and discovered there the
800 pages known ~ the Codex sinaiticus,
now in the British Museum. It was re-
garded by the monks as scrap, destined
to be burned. Doctor Tischendorf rescued
1t and disposed Of 1t to the Gear of Russia
for $6,750. The Soviet government eventu-
ally sold it for approximately 100000.
But the money value Of such material is
a small matter as compared to its religious
and cultural significance.
All the manuscripts and books at Saint
GATHERINGS are nearer to the source Of
Christianity than most other deposits Of
the same general character. The mon
astery dates from about $50 AID. 1t has
been protected by. Mohammedan author
tiles for centuries. The dry atmosphere Of
the peninsula associated with Moses and
the Ten Commandments has been condu-
Give to the preservation OF documents
which probably would have disintegrated
in damper climate. No harm will be done
to the originals in the making Of the photo
graphic copies. They are to be handled
only by experts who realize their worth
and their fragility. Machinery needed for
the task has been shipped from Philadel-
phia. A systematic technique developed
here at the Library OF Congress since 1925
is to be used in the work. The cooperating
group of scholars includes men from the
University of Chicago, Duke University and
