BY TRAYNoR HANSEN

Evangelist Billy Graham whipped
his Seattle revival campaign TO a
white heat Sunday as he called for
a Christian revolution TO sweep
corruption from America.
Pouring out his gospel message
to a crowd of 10000, the largest
to hear him yet in Seattle, the
young preacher tossed a challenge
of Christian living at the nation.
We've had enough Of deep
freezes, mink coats and shady
dealings in government" Ora
ham declared as he paced his
platform in the High School Me-
mortal Stadium.
what we need today" he
said, "is statesmen who will
start out for Christ. It's high
time for the voters of this
country re Use up and vote, for
men OF righteousness and Christ
ian character"
CRISIS THEME
In his sermon, Graham empha-
sized the theme of world crisis.
"If Gcd would allow a heather
nation to destroy his h o m
country of Israel in ancient
times" he said, "God may send
the Russian army to drive Amer
ica to her knees.
"a believe that God is giving
our nation one more chance to
repent of sins and return to Him
before IL is too late"
Opening the third week of his
city-wide revival crusade, Graham
dramatized for the absorbed throng
the story of Daniel in the Lions
Den."
Daniel was an ambassador of
the Lord" he said. "He was
not afraid to let the banners of
God wave in the midst of strife,
persecution and heathenism."
That's what 1t means to be a
