would bring men CIT -
,,zness into light, the DE- e@
G. unsellor.
In the centuries when the serv
ants of God were enslaved by those
who worshiped only the sword, the
prophets pointed confidently to the
time when the leadership of the
world would at least be in the
hands of those who knew and un-
derstood and obeyed God.
Eyes of Flesh
NTOW THE PROPHETS did not
~ always fully understand their
own prophecies, as we are told by
Peter Il Pet. 1:10, I'D; and certain
ly most of the Jews did not. When
they heard the word Messiah or
King they could think only of
the kings they had known and ad-
mired, some now David, great in
battle, or another Solomon, in a
greater and more golden palace.
So when the little boy Jesus
born in the dark stable under
the hill, it was not everyone
who could see what Simeon
saw, that now the hopes Of the
prophets were coming true,
now the Kingdom of righteous
ness and peace, the Realm Of
All Nations, was to begin.
What Simeon's fading human eye
could see was no great thing-a
helpless infant from a peasant
carpenters home. It was only
Simeon's inward eye that saw the
truth.
Eyes of Faith
YET THE EYE of faith can see
i more. The salvation God is
bringing to the world has only
ust begun. AS in Simeon's day the
salvation and the light were barely
at the horizon, so now it is still but
sunrise. The colors of sunrise may
be mistaken for those of sunset,
by those who have been long asleep.
It is only those who have watched
through the night who know the
sunrise for what it is.
The songs of Christmastide
are songs Of hope, and not only
songs Of remembrance. 1t is
not the hope Of fools, for the
world Of today is brighter than
the world into which Christ was
born, and the brightness shines
from him.
Who would turn back this world,
for all it's wretchedness and frus-
trations, into what it would have
been had Jesus never been born?
At Christmas time we rejoice, not
that all things have been accom-
plished or that all the prophecies
of good have come true; we re-
joice rather that the God-sent
Leader, the Messiah, the Saviour,
has come, and that with his COM
ing salvation and light and glory
have begun.

Lesson for December rs, 1s4s

VxTHAT can the old man see in the
w baby? There must have been
some to ask that question. as the
old, old man Simeon took the little
six-weeks-old Jesus in his arms.
To most eyes he was just another
baby: but at the touch of him.

STAFF OF LIFE:
Cost Probe Due

The housewife who had read that
the price of wheat and flour had
gone down, but who found bread
prices remaining up, had company
if she had begun to puzzle about
the paradox.
The senate of the United States
was becoming interested. too, IN
this situation. And, a broad senate
investigation into prices of bread
along with other things was
ready to CO." according to Sena-
tor Maybank 3D., SCI.
AS CHAIRMAN of the senate
banking committee. he called on
government agencies for latest data
on prices-especially the spread be-
tween prices consumers pay and
those farmers get for their prod
ucts.
The chairman said the price In
vestigation wants to know:
Why are bread prices at tnelr
level in view Of the wheat and
flour price drops?
Why hasn't lard. soap and
ening prices fallen off more?
American housewives also would
like to have answers to those ques-
tons.

JOHN L. LEWIS:
Herald of Spring

To coal miners and coal-using in
dustrialists of the nation the in
fallible sign Of spring is neither the
robin nor crocus-it is John L..
Lewis annual call for the miners
to leave the pits.
LEWIS CALLED, and the miners
heard and obeyed. More than AGO.
900 miners began a two-week lay
off, ordered, Lewis said, as a me-
mortal to miners killed and injured
last year.
Skeptics were caustic. They saw
another, more understandable rea-
son for the work s%toppage. The ma
tion's huge stockpile of coal, some
70 million tons, was looming too
large in the Lewis eye. Unless this
stockpile were materially decreased
soon, the president of the United
Mine Workers would be in a less
tenable bargaining position later
on.
Another reason advanced for the
layoff was miners opposition to the
appointment by President Truman
of DR.. James Boyd as head OF the
US. bureau of mines. Advocates
of this idea suggested Lewis move
was intended to intimidate a SEN
ate committee considering Boyd's
appointment.
IF THAT WE'RE TRUE, the at
tempt was a dismal failure. On the
second day of the walkout, the SEN
ate committee approved Boyd's ap-
pointment by a vote of 10 to /
admittedly to show Lewis that Its
members would not be inundated.
But the US. couldn't shrug OIL
the Lewis move. Already II rail-
roads had ordered 57,425 workers
furloughed. Coal is a vital freight
item for these roads. The payroll
loss to the railroaders alone would
be at least five million dollars Tor
the two weeks of idleness.
THE MINERS themselves stood
to lose at least SO million dollars
in wages. In two states steps were
taken to file unemployment COM
pensation claims to take up the
slack. But there was a big ques-
ton whether the states would ap-
prove the claims. because so many
states do not approve claims where
loss of employment is caused by
action of the claimant, himself -
such as might be ruled to be the
case in the voluntary walkout OF
the miners.
Meanwhile most miners families
prepared for a slim Easter. There
would be little money to buy new
bonnets or dresses.

RENT CONTROL:
Home Rule Favored

The administrators legislative
program was begging down at
every turn in congress.
Rent controls, vital to millions
of Americans, were being pro-
longed, but not along lines desired
by President Truman and his ad-
viserS.
THE HOUSE had passed a rent
control measure, but fixed extern
sion at Is months, instead of the
"a the administration wanted, and
provided for home-rule application,
a factor opposed by the administra-
ton.
If the senate accepted this YER
sion of a rent control act, it would
be well. for all concerned in the
nation to begin ascertaining views
of their local rent control boards,
for that's where authority to relax
or continue rent controls would
rest.
The bill, passed by a vote of 261
to 1853 is now in the hands of the
senate for action and administra-
ton forces are reported ready to
renew their fight for more ade-
quate rent curbs there. Action on
a senate version of rent controls
had been blocked by the filibuster.
CONCERNING local-option au-
thority to do away with rent con-
trolls, Tighe Wood, federal rent
administrator, expressed the opin-
ion it might not work out too badly.
He went as far as to say that 81
would be willing to bet that go per
cent of the LOO counties where we
have rent control will not lift rent
control under this amendment"
Many Americans would wonder
about that, and hope the housing
chief was correct in his views. If
he were wrong, and the senate en-
acted the house bill as drawn, a
grave housing emergency might be
created overnight.
Wood, however, saw two essen
tials lacking in the house bill. He
termed these as criminal penalties
for landlords overcharging on
rent, and authority to recontrol
apartments in residential hotels.

If Churches Too Comfy.
CONGREGATION May Sleep

CARLISLE, ENGLAND.-lne
chancellor Of the diocese OF Car
Isle says he is against proposals
to dispense the immemorial
gloom and dampness of English
churches. He says it might en-
courage maps during sermons. A
c~onsistory court recently consi-
dered a proposal to install lights
and a heating system in the
church at Gilsland.
''If the heat in a church be-
comes excessive people might 60
to sleep during the sermon, or at
least have an excuse for doing
So" said Chancellor H. H. King.
ALSO, we don't want theatrical
lighting in churches" The chan
cellor also disapproved install
ing electrical heating tubes
under peWs.
The whole project was tabled
for reconsideration. Cumberland
mists will continue to invade the
Gilsland church on frosty Sun
day mornings.

FILIBUSTER:
Truce Called

The long, weary talkathon in the
U. S. senate was over but the
battle over the proposed curb or
senate debate was by no means a
an end.
A compromise had been effected
with the aid of COP support, but
the administration was committed
to oppose the peace formula which
had been adopted.
THE FILIBUSTE R had con.
tinued IS days over a proposed
change in senate rules. There was
no doubt that southern senators,
who led the talkathon, had
emerged victorious. The talkfest
was staged to delay President Tru-
mans civil rights bill, and it had
done just that.
The provisions of the peace for
mula were:
1. Unlimited debate in the senate
would be permitted only upon a
motion to take up a rules change.
q. Debate on all other matters
could be curbed by the Eyes" vote
of "a of the chambers sc members.
Majority leader Scott Lucas 3D.,
ILL., attacked the compromise pro-
posal as a move to perpetuate the
filibuster."
"Of course I'll oppose it," he
told newsmen. ITS an effort to
take the senate back 40 years"
MEANWHILE Truman Demo-
Gratis were reported launching a
new parliamentary move to clamp
down on debate. The senate already
had overturned a ruling by Vice
President Barley that discussion
to take up the proposed rule change
could be ended if two-thirds OF
those voting desired. The vote
over-ruling Barley was 46 to Al.
Administration leaders hoped to
find some way to another ruling
and, if they could change as many
as three votes, a Barley ruling
could be sustained.
Mr.. Truman had proved he could
win the presidency without sup
port of the South, but it appeared
it would be difficult to put through
a legislative program without sup
port of southern senator's.
