 Golden Text: I John. Herein is love, not that we loved God, but that He loved us, and sent His Son to be the propitiation for our sins" :"
 The following selections are taken from the Lesson Sermon:
 From the Bible: For if when we were enemies, we were reconciled to God by the death of His Son, much more, being reconciled, we shall be saved by His life. And not only so, but we also joy in God through our Lord Jesus Christ, by whom we have now received the atonement" (Romans)
 From Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures, by Mary Baker Eddy: Atonement is the complication of mans unity with God, whereby man reflects divine truth, life, and love. Jesus of Ma zareth taught and demonstrated mans oneness with the Father, and for this we owe Him endless homage. He did life's work alright not only in justice to himself. but in mercy to mortals,-to show them how to do theirs, but not to do it for them nor to relieve them of a single re- sponsibility.

NEWS IN BRIEF

GONNA, Calf. (F) - Kermit Wilson wants to change an old White House tradition. He said he has sent this telegram to Sen. Knowland R.-CalifD:
 Respectfully request you inter cede with President and suggest rolling of oranges on White House lawn this Easter instead of eggs. This would be in line with govern ment'S recommended crop rota- tion principles and obviously a fair deal for all. Also, it will help take spotlight off administrations embarrassing egg surplus. ."
 Wilson is the owner of 40acre citrus grove.
 Wilson could have saved him. self some effort: the White House egg rollings were dropped during the war and haven't been revived yet.

Chapman Looks
 For Early Action On Statehood

EVERETT, Wash. (PO - Secre- tary of the interior Oscar l.. Chapman asserted Wednes d a y that he anticipates reasonably early action on Alaska statehood.
 An advocate of statehood for the Territory for the past IS years, Chapman said the Alaskan people are ''entitled to full fran chise rights" and are willing to as- sume the responsibility that would go with admission to the Union.
 Chapman expressed pleasure that the House already has recog- nized the need for Alaskan state hood, and voiced confidence that the. Senate also would see it the same way.
 statehood for Alaska is inn portant to the people in the Terri tory, to the Pacific Northwest and to the entire nation," he said.
 He pulled out the statistics Wednesday night in an address criticizing administration critics who charge that the United States is drifting toward Socialism.
 Bringing his subject close to home for the audience of Jeffer- son-Jackson banquet goers, Chap man referred pointedly to the con dition of Washington farmers.
 "The cash income of farmers in the State of Washington, having reached $2OS,OOO,OOO in 1929, had dropped to $S8,OOO,OOO by 1882" he said. 'I am proud to remind you that in 1948 this income for farmers amounted to over $570,- OOO,OOO."
