A Christian
Is Supernatural

IF ALL YOU WANT of God is to
have him do something for you,
then you are rather like a baby
who keeps crying for some one to
bring him more toys but he
stays baby. If your want of God
is to have him do something with
you, in you and through you, then
you are like child who really
wants to grow up.
The Christian is a supernatural
being. AS c. S. Lewis puts it, we
are not Gods little toy soldiers,
we are intended to be his sons and
daughters.
But II the Christ is the
''first-bOrn among many breth-
rem" then here in this life those
who accept him have access to
the same power that wrought
in him. And at the end Of life
we shall not be afraid, know
ing that we belong to the same
God who raised our Lord from
the dead.
The glory of Easter is not some
thing merely to be remembered or
sung about; 1t is something to be
experienced. The same God who
conquered death "giveth us vic
tory through our Lord Jesus
Christ"

His Power in Us

His Power in Us
THAT STRANGELY TWISTED
! man Kierkegaard called Chris
tianity Gods attack on man. -
You could not get that idea from
the New Testament.
Marvellous as it is, Christian
fly is God offering to man the
power to rise out of our dead
selves, to do for us what we
could never have done for our
selves. What has this to do
with Easter? Just this: That
when the Apostle Paul wants to
explain what the power is
which God sets at our disposal,
what 1t is like and what it will
do, he tells us 1t is the same
power with which God raised
Christ from the dead. (See
Cor. 6:14; Eph. 1890; 2:6;
Phil. $40.
You see the truth about Easter
is that it is the day when the Chris
tians celebrate the most tremen-
dous act God ever performed on
this planet, or rather that day when
God brought to climax the whole
mighty action of the coming and
the life and death of Christ. And
that is the power which is avail
able for the Christian.

day off? The return of spring? Not
at all, nothing of the sort. Bunnies
and hats are gay; but the right
word for Easter is not Gaiety, it is
Glory.

Gods Victory

Gods Victory
EVEN IN churches you will not
II always hear the whole truth
about Easter. You may hear that
it is TIE festival of Returning Hope,
or that it symbolizes new life, or
that it stands for the triumph of
faith over despair, or that it ex-
presses our belief in Immortality.
In way, all these ideas about
Easter are true, hut if that is all,
then we have not yet got down to
the truth about Easter.
The fact is-the fact which gives
a solid ground for all these other
facts-the first Easter was the day
when God raised Jesus Christ from
the dead. 1t was the day of God S
victory over death, when the gates
of death swung backward and the
bars of death were broken.
The truth about Easter is
that something happened on
that day that never happened
before and never will happen
again. Because never before
had the Son of God risen in per-
sonal triumph from the grave,
and never will that have to be
done over again.
If it were not for that fact, Jesus
might have been remembered as a
long-dead Jewish teacher, a hope
full but mistaken and defeated
teacher, a name to be found only
in encyclopedias. But the truth
about Easter is that Jesus is not
dead, his hopes were not mistaken,
he was not defeated, his Name is
above every man! He is the Chris
tian's living Lord.

To Finance Inquiry
By House Group
BY Harold B. Rogers

Ncpl cSeLGdGlVS hlelQ, Demo-

that Congress study the feasibil-
ity and advisability" of municipal
ownerhip and operation of the
Capital Transit Co.
He introduced resolution
authorizing a study by a five
member subcommittee of the
House District Committee. 1t
asked $4,000 to finance the in

The resolution was expected to

The resolution, would not re-

proval by the President. The sub
committee would be directed to
report to Congress not later than
May 80.
Aware of Dissatisfaction.
In a statement, Mr.. Klein said
he was aware of wide dissatisfac-
ton with the operation of the
Capital Transit Co., a foreign
owned corporation in a position
of virtual monopoly of public
transportation in the District and
of commanding position in the
environs."
Complaints against the COM
pany, Mr.. Klein pointed out. in
clude those who object to the
horrors of forced listening to
radio" and charges of "minimal
off-peak" service and frequently
increased fares.
Mr.. Klein said he was not pre-
pared to advocate immediate pur-
chase and operation of the transit
company system by the District
government, but he said Il Ger
tainly think the idea deserves
careful and impartial study"
The transit company has asked
the Public Utilities Commission
for another increase in fares
which it claims is largely due to
a recent arbitration award OF
higher pay for it's employees.
New York System Cited.
The hearings before the arbi-
tration board brought out testi-
mony to the increasing tendency
toward public ownership of tran
sit lines. Six of the IL largest
cities of the country now own
outright virtually all of their
transit lines. These are New
York City. part of which Mr..
Klein represents; Boston, Chicago,
Detroit. Cleveland and san Fran
cisco. 4.
For many years New York sue
cessfully operated rapid transit
systems in direct competition with
private enterprises" Mr.. Klein
said, giving consistently better
service at competitive rates. Now
almost the entire public trans
portatlon system OF New York is
in public ownership. and very sue
cessfully so." 81
Mr.. Klein said Capital Transit
''has shed bitter tears in paid
newspaper advertisements about
its precarious financial position
has given notice of a further
sharp increase in fares. and has
suggested that it should receive a
tax subsidy in addition to the
public benefit it alreaoy enjoys
