Rev. Lowell Tells Congregation
of Ordeal in Divorce Court

on. what good purpose God could
have in this sordid mess"
Then, he said. he saw a 'tiny
ray Of light in the dark" A
woman who had occasionally at
tended his church telephoned him
She told Of estrangement from
her husband. She said that read
ing Of the minister's troubles had
awakened her and her husband
to their own. Reconciliation fol-
lowed, Mr.. Lowell recounted.
Am I saying my home had to
be shattered to save their
home?" the minister demanded.
"No-only that out of the most
horrible thing that has ever hap
pened to me has come some good" "
In addition. he continued. he
was warmed by the messages of
faith his parishioners conveyed
to him during trial.
IF there never were situation
of that kind, how could folk ever
exhibit such faith?" Mr.. Lowell
asked.
He then expanded by applying
the principle of seeking good to
large scale matters. He cited for
eign aid programs, student ex-
change.
Much of our foreign policy is
based on the premise of discover
ing the potential good and en-
couraging it to fulfillment even
in unpromising situations" Mr..
Lowell said.
1t must be the faith and
action" of all to help make all
things work out for good, he con-
|cluded.
Present for Sunday School serv-
ices yesterday, under specific
court order, were the three lively
Lowell children, Marilyn, II, Dean,

1879 Pay Raise Ceiling
Hinted as WSB Plans
To Resume Paheys
BY tho Assoeiatad Prs.s

The Wage Sterilization Board
will resume conferences tomorrow
on a new general policy to hold
the line on wage increases.
Although members of the board
insist they are not close to a de-
|cision, the talk is reported to be
|centering around allowing an ad-
vance in the line from 10 per cent
above January. 1850, levels to ap-
|proximately 13 per cent-includ-
ing annual productivity improve
ment bonuses generally figured at
two per cent a year, and other
"fringes" amounting to another
one-half per cent.
The cost of living index, to
which most industrial contracts
with escalator clauses are hinged,
advanced los per cent between
January Is, 1850, and last April
Is.
The present ceiling of 10 per
cent was fixed in January by the
first Wage. Sterilization Board,
headed by Cancellation Director
Cyrus S. Ching. That percentage
did not allow for the productivity
bonus but the board promised to
take another look at the cost of
living index Of April Is with a
view to revising the 10 per
cent ceiling If that should be
warranted.
Economic Stabilizer Eric Johns
ton has firmly suggested to the
board that it not go beyond the
10.5 per cent allowable as a cost
of living advance from January
1850. But he would allow at least
another two per cent for the i'm
provement in productivity where
it could be actually proved that
output was boosted.

Yesterday, Mr.. Lowell spoke to
a large, rapt congregation on
How to Get the Best Out of the
Worlds Worst" His sermon was

I'VE know that all things work
together for good to those who
love God, to those who are called
