There is a story going
around concerning the late
King Carol of Rumania.
Seems that the king selected
IA of the country's most intel
ligent young men and sent
them off to England and the
United States to study up on
things of Importance. Asked
how the experiment had work
ed out the king said We'll,
the seven who went to Eng
land came home and got good
jobs"
"But what about the seven
who went to the u. 81"
"Oh, they were much smart
er-they didn't come home"

(3) "And were all baptized
unto Moses in the cloud and in
the sea-" as we. read in I Cor
1912. Here a significant type of
Christian baptism symbolizing
the change from bondage to
freedom, and from death in
Egypt to life through the truth
of a new covenant. Proselyte
baptism was in use in the time
of Jesus, but we find no record
of that in the Church in the
Wilderness" )"
(4D All Gods spiritual Israel
must own their obligation to
Him for His safe conduct. They
kept his commandments as we
see in Mum. 9:23, "They kept the
charge of the Lord, at the COM
mandment of the Lord by the
hand of Moses" The Church in
the Wilderness" was of Divine
institution and was Holiness
unto the Lord" They joined
themselves to Him in a coven-
ant Of peculiar people. They be-
gan in the spirit and when they
had backslidden in their failure
to go into Canaan at Kadesh-
Barnes, they seemed to have
neglected the passover and the
offering of their sacrifices. How
ever the miraculous gift of
water from the rock was a type
of the Giving water" which
Springs up unto everlasting
life" Notice John 4:14, But
whosoever shall drink of the
water that | shall give him shall
never thirst, but the water that

well of water springing up into

The September 21st issue of
the Freeman carries an article
by former U. S. Senator Joseph
Ball, which exposes what has all
the earmarkS of an attempt to
emasculate the Taft-Hartley
law. 1t points out that on July
3lst a proposed message was
very nearly submitted to Con-
gress over President Eisenhow-
er's signature. Protests by Vice
President Nixon and others
stopped it then, but, somehow a
copy of the message was leaked
to the Wall Street Journal,
which published its full text on
August 3rd.
After its publication the White
House denied that it was in final
form, insisted it was only a
working draft but, signifi-
cantly did not repudiate it. AS
result, the proposed message
has now become what is known
as a trial balloon. This means
that the relative volume of pro-
tests as against endorsements Of
the proposed message received
will probably determine the Ad-
ministration's future course of
action.
The nineteen amendments to
Taft-Hartley in the proposed
message included twenty-four
concessions to union leader de
mands, while only one minor
change was mentioned from
among the many for which en-
ployer groups had made strong
cases in the lengthy hearings
before Congressional commit
tees.
The worst of the changes pro
posed in this leaky trial balloon
were to cut the heart out of the
restrictions on compulsory union
membership, the prohibition of
secondary boycotts and the safe
guards on union welfare funds
the three most vital provisions
of the Taft-Hartley Act.
Former Senator Ball conclud-
ed his Freeman article with
timely advice as to how this at
tempt to completely wreck Taft
Hartley can be frustrated. | pass
it on to the readers of this
column in the hope that his
words will be needed and acted
upon:
With the great bulwark
against such a sellout in Con-
gresS gone with Senator Tafts
death, only one thing can reverse

THE AMERICAN WAY

this trend and maintain a labor
policy based on freedom and
fairness instead of bias and
coercion That is an aroused
public opinion that makes its
views known.
''The proposed message of July
81 on Taft Hartley is a trial bal
loon of major importance. The
public reaction to its proposals to
gut the acts protection of the
public and Individual workers
will determine whether it is
abandoned or whether it is just
beginning of additional conces-
sions to union power. The pro-
ponents of the sellout are doing
their best to minimize the i'm
portance of the message while
they quietly encourage their
friends to record their support
of it. That also is a recognized
part of the trial balloon techni-
que.
But if enough people refuse
to be lulIed to sleep and protest
vigorously, as happened to Taft
Hartley itself in 1947 and on the
steel strike in 1852, they can get
results. There is no doubt that
President Eisenhower wants to
be fair to all groups. So do many
Of his advisers. But unless they
hear from the people, they may
be persuaded that the things
proposed in the trial balloon
message are not so bad after all.
'If you want to make your
own opinion count, there is n
simple way to do it. Write a let
ter or send a telegram to the
President at the White House.
Do the same thing to members
of the cabinet. Write, wire, or
talk to your representative and
senators. Do the same to your
Republican state chairman and
national committeeman. And be
sure to talk to the individual to
whom you contributed COP.

you don't have to go into
details on the proposed Presi-
dental message in your letters

about that. But if you believe
the restrictions on compulsory

strengthened, not weakened;

you can be sure that your
message will count. And as OF
now, it looks as if only flooo
of such messages can keep Taft

Bible Questions
And Answers
BY
ALBERT F. RANDOLPH

Question: Did the Church in
the Wilderness possess the New
Testament features of a real
church? Or W.
/. Was there any Gospel in it?
2. Was there any Christ in it?
3. Was there any baptism in it?
4. Was it a spiritual church?
S. Were infants included in the
church?
Answer: This is big question
and is difficult to answer be-
cause of so little information in
the Word of God. The term
Church in the Wilderness" is
used but once in Scripture as
far as l can ascertain, and that
is in Acts 1888. The primary
meaning of the Greek word
translated Church" is, "a gath
ering of called out or called
forth citizens, called from their
homes into some public place. F"
Usually it means a gathering for
sacred purposes, although the
same word is used for a tumult-
uous assembly as in Acts 1899,
and is here translated "assem-
bly,"
The Church in the Wilder
ness" was indeed the Lords con-
gregation. The Church in the
Wilderness" regardless of other
things, did have in type, especi-
ally, and in practice, to some
extent, the elements or features
of the New Testament Church.
Now for the special separate
questions concerning it. a.
Since by Gospel" we mean good
news concerning Christ, the
Kingdom of God and salvation
which gives us a hope in the
soul, we are led to say that the
gospel was in the Church in
the Wilderness" Notice Ex. 6:6
II will bring you out from under
the burdens of the Egyptians,
and l will rid you out of their
bondage, and I will redeem you
with a stretched out arm, and
with great judgments" In the
next verse (verse y again, "And
| will take you to me for a
people, and l will be to you a
God" In verse And l will
bring you into the land concern
ing which l did sware to give
it to Abraham, to Isaac, and to
Jacob and I will give it to you
for an heritage" And in Deut.
6:23 Moses says, And he
brought us out from thence,
that he might bring us in, to
give us the land which he sWare
unto out fathers" This good
news placed a hope in them as
the Gospel of Christ places a
hope in US and causes us to
press on.

were taught of Him as their God
Christ was their spiritual meat
and spiritual drink. ] Cor. 10:4
