"Obey The Will of God"
When Jesus fulfilled his fathers
law
His enemies crucified him on the
Cross,
They nailed his hands up, we are
told
That is where his blood was lost.
He shed his blood for the sins of
those
That know he was Christ,
To save all who would believe on
him,
And give them eternal life.
No one was fit to give his life
But God the fathers son, Jesus
Christ
He was a begotten child, we are
told
The doorkeeper of eternal life.
What he said to one he said to all
Thou shall have no other God
before me-"
am going away to prepare
place, and my
Death made you all to know"
We are putting to much distress on
man
Making Lords, and Kings out of
some
The Holy Bible says there is no
other God
And let Gods will be done.
We are trying to take money today
And we are paying our way in
Gods house
We might as well try to take a
dollar, than
Try to make believe it is eleven.
Gods house is full of make believ-
ers
Calling Gods house your Church
Gods Church is in the hearts Of
men, and
Gods love is the salvation of his
Church.
Too many members in Gods house
have never
been born again, hollering and
shouting, ~ am a child of God,
and their hearts are filled with
sin.
If we can't love one another
We will never enter through by
Christ
He is the doorkeeper of Gods
Heaven,
Where there is everlasting eternal
life.
Styles and pride are about
to take Gods house today
Too many old ones hollering
Amen, and our young race
going astray.

On the Till case, the New York
governor countered:
"I'm going to talk about the
problems of New York-As long
as we have discrimination in New

A final question was asked
about efforts Hartman might

Rembrandt's Head of Christ,
often called The Christ of The
'Reatitudes, will probably be stud
led by more people during the next
two months than at any time since
it was painted in the 18th century.
1t appears on the cover of The
Upper Room, daily devotional
guide with more than million
circulation. The painting is in the
Metropolitan Museum in New
York.
DR.. J. Manning Potts, editor of
The Upper Room points out that
in this picture Rembrandt was
seeking to show the compassionate
Christ - friend of the lonely, the
poor and the suffering. Rembrandt
painted this picture after he had
himself experienced great personal
sorrow, lost his fortune and his
popularity. Worshippers of wealth
and power brush him aside but the
poor and suffering see compassion
and love in his eyes.

Davis said that before Decker
put him in Jail, he gave him a
receipt for about $4,000. But he
said, when he got out the receipt
was missing from his pocketbook

was about $3.50 less than what
was on the receipt.
Decker said that if this is the

come vitality important" the
committee said, and "the manner
in which the budget is prepared
in the executive branch and the
manner in which Congress con
siders the budget in making
appropriations are at the heart
of the problem"
The committee said its pro.
posals are aimed at these prin-
cipal weaknesses in the budget
process:
81. The budget contains too
much detail that is not relevant
to major budget issues. The
budget does not clearly de-
scribe the services provided by
the government programs or
their costs. An unduly long
period of preparation is re-
quired.
"2. There is no systematic
procedure in Congress to in
sure consideration of problems
involving relations between ex.
penitureS and revenues.
"3. The budget process in
Congress is splintered. Expen-
diture decisions tend to be
made one by one without
weighing against one another
the competing claims of the
various government programs
for funds and without consider
ing the burden of the total.
81. There is no systematic
review Of performance or
evaluatiOn of efficiency"
In calling for more rapid de
velopment of the trend toward a
program budget, the commit
tee said: Government activities
should be described in such a
way as to make it easier for q
Congressman to judge the desir
ability of different government
services. Activities should be de
scribed quantitatively and unit
cost figures should be presented
where feasible"
The committee said that de

document: Generally speaking
the description of services is toe

scale at which the activity is to
be carried on is not indicated as
clearly as it might be. Although
meaningful unit cost figures are
not calculable for all activities
such figures have not been de
veloped in all cases where this

important cases the description
of the activity fails to show how
it is related to policy objectives
in which the citizen is inter-
eSted."
The committee pointed out
that in the Presidents message
which transmitted the fiscal 1855
budget to Congress last year,
spending was discussed under
13 major headings = National
security, natural resources, labor
and manpower, etc. These head
ings are too broad to be used
basis of decision, but they do
indicate the kinds of categories
which, if spelled out in more de-
tail, would appear in a program
budget"
Not only is the information in
the budget document deficient in
some respects; its great bulk is
also a handicap, the committee
said. The 1888 page budget
document for fiscal 1855 weighed
five and a half pounds and con-
tanned vast amount of detail
on "objects" of expenditure: per-
sonal services, travel, transporta-
ton of things, supplies, materials
and the like. "The major budget
issues would be clearer" the
committee said, if his detail were
deleted from the budget docu-
ment "and presented to Congress
as a part of yearly report on
performance"
In recommending institution of
a joint budget policy conference,
the committee noted that now
"the revenue committees and the
appropriations committees act
largely independently of each
other; there is no formal pro-
cedure that insures the coordina.
ton of expenditure and revenue
decisions" or adequate considera-
ton of their long-run effects on
the economy.
Under the CED plan. shortly
after submission of the budget
the joint conference would meet
with the budget director and
any other administration Off
cials it wished to hear, and at
tempt to arrive at a consensus
on the expenditure-revenue pro-
blems, "but it would make no
formal report at this stage.
Even if there is no consensus at
this time, such deliberations
would be of value to the chair
men of the appropriations COM
mittees in giving guidance to
their subcommittee" as well as
to the chairmen of the revenue
committees.
Later in the session, but be-
lore ma lOr revenue ana dpprO-
priation bills are reported, House
and Senate members of the con-
ference would meet separately.
Turning to its recommends
tions for alleviating the present
"pieeemeaI' consideration of
appropriations, the committee
said that following the joint
budget conference each appro-
priations chairman, in consulta-
ton with subcommittee chair
men, should set "guidelines in
the form of tentative dollar
ceilings for fairly sizable groups
of activities"
