Jesus" Golden Text: John SIG.
God so loved the world, that he
gave his only begotten Son, that
whosoever believeth in him should
not perish, but have everlasting
life. A citation from the Lesson
Sermon is Matthew 3:13, 16, IL.
Then cometh Jesus from Galilee to
Jordan unto John, to be baptized
of him. -. And Jesus, when he
was baptized, went up straightway
out of the water: and, 10, the heav-
ems were opened unto him, and he
saw the Spirit of God descending
like dove, and lighting upon him:
And 10 a voice from heaven, say
ing, This is my beloved Son, in
whom I am well pleased. A cor
relative passage from the Textbook
Science and Health with Key to
the Scriptures" by Mary Baker Ed
dy is: Up 539:482). The divine
origin of Jesus gave him more than
human power to expound the facts
of creation, and demonstrate the
one Mind which makes and gov
erns man and the universe. The
Science of creation, so conspicuous
in the birth of Jesus, inspired his
wisest and least-understood say
! ings, and was the basis of his mar
vellous demonstrations. -. Jesus
called himself "the Son of man" /,
but not the son of Joseph. AS wo-
man is but species of the genera,
he was literally the Son of Man.
Jesus was the highest human con-
cept of the perfect man. He was
inseparable from Christ, the Mes
siah, the divine idea of God out
side the flesh.

Why Hitler Did Not Attack Sweden

STOCKHOLM-"The reason Hit
Ter did not attack Sweden at the
same time as he invaded Denmark
and Norway-according to an an
alysis we made of the situation at
the time-that strategically speak
ing he simply did not consider
such a move necessary or suit
able This explanation was of
fered yesterday at the annual
meeting of the Swedish Export As
ISOLATION, by Gunnar Haggl0f,
Swedish ambassador to Grea t
Britain, who during the Second
World War headed many Swedish
trade delegations to Berlin. "How-
ever, had the ore deposits in north
ern Sweden been situated in the
southernmost part" he added,
Hitler would have occupied that
section. But we were certain that
as soon as military developments
gave him sufficient scope, he would
undoubtedly seek to dominate
Sweden too, either by threat or
force. Nobody who had an intimate
knowledge of Hitler's Germany
could doubt that the Fuehrer alb
horred and despised the Swedish

Germans Considered War Won
in 1911
Discussing Sweden's wartime
trade negotiations with Germany,
Mr.. Hagglof revealed that when
the Germans in the spring of 1941
agreed to a so-called safe conduct
traffic for west-bound Swedish
ships, the head of the German
blockade service, Ambassador Rit-
ter, said, 1.-THE war will soon be
over any way, why souldnt you get
safe conduct for the remaining
few months" 1t was on such slen-
der thread, said Mr.. Hagglof, that
the Swedish negotiations about
this traffic hung. When the safe
conduct traffic had grown in size
and Importance he continued,
more than one of the German po-
litical leaders bitterly regretted
that such permission had ever been
given.
THE experience gained from
Sweden's foreign trade policy dur
ing the Second World War h e
Ambassador emphasized, taught
us that close and efficient coopera-
ticn between the Government au-
thorities on the one hand and rep
resenntatives of business and in
dustry on the other is of enormous
importance" He called for a re-
vival of the system of such per-
manent Government committees,
which Sweden set up in the case
of Germany for ten years, and also
in the wartime negotiations with
Great Britain and the United
States.

.Low-grade Oil For
Diesel Engines To
Save Large Sums

STOCKHOLM. - A newly de-
signed and easily installed special
Swedish oil separator makes it
possible to run diesel engines in
ships on ordinary loW-grade fuel
oil used in boilers, with attendant
enormous savings in operations
costs, stated Mr.. AXel Norling.
head of the marine section of ABB
Separator, in an address to ship
building and aviation technicians
of the Swedish Association of
Technologists.
Costs of installation are calcu-
lated to be recovered within one
year f r m savings in operation
and if all diesel ships now regis
tered at Lloyd's were converted in
this manner the amount saved,
based on present diesel oil prices,
would fetal S500,OO0,OO0 per an

IF you want to know what's "the
J. newest thing" in automobile
engines, look at the Buick engine
pictured here, and you'll see the
words "valve-in-head."
But it happens that this isn't new
with Buick. As matter of fact,
the valve-in-head engine was in
vented back in I902-U. S. Patent
No. 77l095-and Immediately,
Buick adopted the principle, which
became the first in a long string of
"Buick frsts."
Not everyone went for the idea
then. In spite of the fact that this
engine breathes" more freely
gets fuel in and exhaust gases out
more easily - others hung onto
their pet ideas.
Then came the airplane, with its

need for maximum power from
every drop of fuel-and every
maker of internal combustion air
plane engines adopted the valve
in-head principle.
And more recentiy-with the hope
that higher-octane fuels will be-
come available-a lot Of automo-
tive engine designers are taking a
new look at the vaIve-in-head idea.
But just for the record, we'd like
to point out that Buick got there
first.
And ever since, Buick has gone
steadily ahead, building up a name
as Observation-Disclosures. Buick
engineers reshaped pistons to put
Fireball wallop in these engines.
They stepped up compression
The Republican. [volume] (Oakland, Md.) 1877-current, 1949-11-03

ratios as fast as better fuels came
along.
SO perhaps you'll want to re-
member, when you hear the term
"valve-in-head, " that This is the type
Of b0loer that made Buick famous.
If others want to climb on the
bandwa9on, we say more power
to them and no pun is intended.
But Buick has been doing more
with valve-in-head right from the
start.
And dive might add lit stands to
reason that Buick is not through
making this type of engine better
and better.
