Sentence Sermons
By Rev. Frank Clarence LOwery
Cor AMP

1. The ''New Look" is just a
change in dress from high degree
to lower; but high degree of
Christian living is more valuable to
the owner.
2. Looking fine from outward APP
pearance is not to be despised, but
greater still are christian virtues
which men should fully realize.
8. Too long has youth in general
been following flashy outward
looks and left undone the fine les
sons that follow men of character
and good boks.
4. Silver and gold have always
had a charming old and new look
to men bent on ill-gotten gains,
though having to bear the name Of
a crook.
S. When, for this alone, men
strive to get ahead, it all simply
means in the end pretty hard
bed.
6. Looks, are but a passing plea.
sure, but christian virtues are an
eternal treasure.
Z. It was the Adamic sin that
caused men to look on outward ap-
pearances from the start, while God
has always looked upon the heart.
8. And now, the way to look diff
ferent in days like these, is always
to do right. and God only, please. 90
8. Clothes will get men by here
on the earth, but to get where God
is, one must have a new birth.
10. The real New Look" will al.
ways reflect Gods personality as
men learn to practice real Christi.
anity.
II. The Prophet jeremiah w h o
spoke in another day seemed dis
turbed about New Looks, for we
still hear him say, THUS saith the
Lord, stand We in the ways, and see,
and ask for the old paths, where is
the good way, and walk therein, and
We shall rest for your souls" But
they said, we will not walk therein.
H. This proves old jeremiah to
be right; that we need no New
Look, but proper sight and
when men begin to see alike with
Him who supplies all their need,
then there will be no more wars,
avarice and greed.

8 A|coa Plants Open
After Strike; Union
Keeps Ninth Closed
BY the Associated Press

PITTSBURGH, Dec. 8.-Eight
Aluminium Co. of America plants
which have been strikebound since
October II began opening today
to prepare for full-scale pro1uc-
tion.
The 1900 CIO United Steel
workers at the plants are covered
by a new contract which gives
them wage adjustments, pensions
and insurance. The agreement,
reached yesterday. provides 500
monthly minimum pensions, in
cluding social security, and social
insurance benefits.
Despite the announced settle
ment, Steelworkers nocal 800
voted last night to remain on
strike at a ninth plant, at Alcoa,
Tenn, until the company meets
two conditions. A union spokes-
man said members voted to re-
main off the job until the
company agrees to reopen its en-
tire plant at once. There also is
a local grievance which the union
insists must be settled, the spokes-
man added.
Full Resumption Debated.
1t was understood the union
wanted the company to open the
Tennessee plant with the same
number OF workers employed prior
to the strike.
A. D. Ruddleston, regional man
ager for Alcoa, said, Having lost
a large percentage of our orders,
except for a very small backlog
we now have, resumption of op-
erations with a full force is not
warranted.
Under the new contract. the
company bears all pension and
insurance costs. except the work.
ers continue their contributions to
social security. The company
program makes up the difference
between social security pensions
and $100 for workers aged IS
with Is years service.
Benefits Are Listed.
Social insurance benefits, in
cluded in previous contracts. pro-
vide a $4,000 life insurance policy
while the employe works and a
$500 paid-up policy on retire
ment; $26-a-week sick benefits for
26 weeks; $3.50 a day hospitaliza-
ton for 81 days: $85 for special
hospital services and pay for sur
gerry up to 1925.
Pension provisions are virtually
the same as those which ended the
recent Nationwide steel strike.
However, Alcoa is taking over all
costs Of the insurance program
where In steel the workers and
industry each contribute 21a cents
hourly.
Plants covered in the contract,
In addition to the one in Tennes-
see, are at Bauxite. Ark; Rich
mond, Ind; Detroit; Baden. N. c.;

General Winter" Is for us so effective an

This does not mean. however, that air

raids unless effective methods were worked
out for spotting those footholds and quickly
cleaning them out, II Is understood that
such techniques are being successfully
elaborated. and that specialized Canadian
and United States counterirvasion units

Another comforting conclusion arrived
at by the Fort Churchill experiments Is
that all existing maps OF the Canadian

mainly on gueSswork. This means that
any maps which may be in the hands Of

was a peoples artist, but she considered
only the best qualities Of her subjects
worthy of preservation. Life TO her was not
something to be Knocked by distortion,
degraded by satiric Interpretation. She
drew and painted with respect, even rever-
ence, for humanity. That was the secret Of
the dynamic influence Of her war service
and peacetime philanthropic posters.
Those who knew her well were proud Of
their admission to her circle. Miss Nc
Mein as they saw her, was a thoroughbred,
and 1t was privilege to be counted among
her friends. But strangers also developed
an affection for her. Her charm reached

The EisIer Chase

1t would have been much simpler, and
probably more satisfactory to most people,
If this Government had decided to let
Gerhart Eisler get away.
II he is returned to the United States
he will serve his jail sentence and then,
presumably, will be deported. This will
entail some small expense and will not be
of any known benefit to this country.
The man is a nuisance and will never be
anything but a nuisance. II he had re-
turned to Poland we would have had
ample reason to say goodby and good
riddance.
1t is too late for that now, however.
The ponderous machinery to return him
has been set in motion and the case has
become something of an international
incident. Eisler, with that skill which
marks the true Communist, is enjoying
a propaganda field day. The Communist
dominated Polish government is challeng-
ing our right to extradite Eisler and make
him pay the penalty for contempt of Con-
gress and perjury. Their thesis Is that
the man is a political refugee and there
fore entitled to the right of asylum in
Great Britain. This is palpable false
hood which we must challenge. To drop
the case now might be construed as a
tacit acceptance of the Polish claim, and
for this reason, If for no other, it Is
necessary to 60 ahead with the pursuit
and punishment of Eisler.
