SINGAPORE Up This British
crown colony city. like much of the
rest of the world, has a housing
shortage.
So when the Singapore Improve
ment Trust announced it would re-
ceive applications for new houses,
a crowd of 5000 stOrmed its offices.
Police had to be called to control
throngs clamoring to get applica-
tiOn forms.
In Western Australia an attempt
is being made to develop hog-rais-

Religion In Books
By Roy L. TRWes

FIFTY YEARS OF CHRISTMAS
by Ruth M. ElmQuist, editor. Rine-
hart and Company, New York. So.
A seasonal anthology of the best
writing to appear in the Christian
Herald magazine during the past
fifty years. Poets and preachers,
nOvelists, short story tellers, es-
sayists and hymn writer's are-the
contributors. The book is lively
with the Christmas spirit. and cor
rect in its meanings. Christmas
is the exquisite universal express
sion of the faith which has kept
us men and women alive through
all errors and despairs-the faith
that light will come again after
darkness. That the celebration of
this certainty that light will come
again takes place at the very dark
est of the year is for us, in our
time of sorrow and anxiety, it's
most beautiful and moving aspect"
QUESTIONS PEOPLE ASK by
Robert j. McCracken. Harper and
Brothers, New York. $3.50. The
successor to Harry Emerson FOs-
dick, at Riverside, New York, is
great preacher. Here are samples
of his pulpit work. These chapters
confront religious and moral diff
culties in the lives of people. They
answer such questions as Can We
Believe in a Personal GOd?, How
Does One Learn to PTay?, Can HUI
man Nature Be Changed?, and Why
Can't We Live Together? One of
the perennial convictions of re-
ligiOus faith is that the Universe |
is under the control Of a loving |
purpose. Behind the harsh ap-
pearance of the world the believer |
finds a Friend.
HERE IS HELP FOR YOU by |
James Gordon Gilkey. Macmillan,
New York. $3.50. In the line of |
this authors previous volumes,
here is another title in the art of |
living. DR.. Gilkey draws largely !
from his experience, and quotes |
aptly from his studies. His writing |
has human interest. He writes on |
happy marriage, the importance of
a Job, making a comeback in life,
and living under pressure. God is
deeply and uniquely concerned Ov-
er human beings. all human be-
ings. In spite of their faults and
failings they are His only pOten- +
tial companions"

Revised Jap Treaty
To Be Made Public
BY u. s, Britain Today
BY the Associated Press

The United States and Britain
will make public at 5 pm. today
a third and final draft of a pro-
posed peace Of reconciliation"
with Japan which Russia has de-
nounced. &
Despite continuing Soviet OBJ
jections, both governments an
ticipate at least 40 of so countries
will sign it at a conference in
San Francisco next month.
Once the 6,50O-word treaty is
ratified by a majority Of the sign
ers, it will formally end the war
declared against the Japanese en-
pire nearly 10 years ago.
Western powers hope this will
restore Japan to the ranks of
major powers banded together
to resist Communist expansion
throughout the world.
Only Slight Changes.
Informed officials said the latest
draft differs only slightly from a
version circulated a month ago by
Britain and the United States as
co-sponsors.
The only important change,
they said, deals with Japan's
obligation to pay reparations to
nations it devastated during the
Pacific war.
This feature was altered in
difference to the Philippines,
which had threatened to boycott
the San Francisco meeting over
demands for war damages.
AS amended, the treaty notes
Japan's obligation to pay such
claims. But, instead of ap-
parently ruling them out because
of its poverty, it leaves the way
open for future reparations in the
event the japanese make a
financial comeback.
Informed diplomats said the re-
manning changes involve wording
the legal phrasing. Nearly all of
them were made after comments
and suggestions from some of the
so governments which studied the
earlier draft.
Pact Termed Unique.
John Foster Dulles, chief archi-
tect of the pact, has termed it
unique" in world history. This
is because the actual text was
drafted without formal confer
ence.
The San Francisco Conference,
opening September 4, has been
called mainly to sign the draft as
it now stands.
Russia's delegates, led by tough
talking Deputy Foreign Minister
Andrei Gromyko, are expected to
wage an all-out propaganda bat,
tie at San Francisco against the
treaty.

Second Laboritc
Quits Cabinet

LONDON, April 23-(A0.-Thc
cabinet crisis is getting worse in
Britain, with a second laborite
said to have quit.
Labor Minister Ancurin Bcvan
resigned yesterday with a blast at
the British budget, including
plans for a heavy rearmament
program. Now, the cabinets
youngest member, President Har-
old Wilson of the board of trade,
is said to have followed Bevan.
Wilson is 35 years old.
And there is talk that one or
two Junior ministers may fol-
low Bevan and Wilson out of
Prime Minister Clement Attlee's
Cabinet.
Wilson did not attend today's
cabinet meeting He went to his
office at the board of trade, but
declined comment.
The popularity of the labor
party is at low point in Britain,
and Winston Churchilrs conserV-
tives are viewing the develop
ments with open glee. A general
election is not unlikely, and the
conservatives feel they would be
able to regain control of the Brit
iSh government.
