Judge John r. Foley, candi-

ton for Congress in Maryland's
sixth district, today appointed
Wolf Won Eckardt of Kensington
as his political agent.
Mr.. Won Eckardt, a liberal, has
been active in Democratic politics

Press Service of the State De
partment in 1858. He is a past

Mr.. Won Eckardt is native of
Germany where his father is poll

guise would meet the enmity of
these people, who preferred to
wait until more propitious mo-
ment before revolving.
The Jewish community was di-
vided on this issue. Therefore
Jesus was welcomed by some and
rejected by others. PLATE saw in
this difference of opinion between
large groups of his subjects the
possibility of open conflict and
violence. If news of such disturb
ances got back to Rome it would
be indicative of his inability to
rule his province. So, when Jesus
was brought before him, he well
coined the opportunity to get rid
of Him, and did.
An important truth here is that
the number of Jews who wanted
Jesus punished was exceedingly
small, whereas those who "fol
lowed him gladly" was over
whelming. But even if it were
the other way around the whole
issue was a matter in Jewish life
from beginning to end and his
torically should have been left
there and not carried over into
the world of ecclesiastical exploit
tation as characterized by the
Christian Church, and made sub
terfuge for further suppression of
the people-this time the Jews.
A great service can be rendered
Christianity by the church if it
takes the lead in the propagation
of this truth which will be at its
core, a lesson on non-suppression
of human beings in the United
States and abroad.

Editor:
A few Sundays ago one of the
boys in my Sunday school asked
me this question, "Who crucified
Jesus Christi"
This is an important question
because the answer that Christen-
dom has given has been one of
the great provocations for anti
Semitism through the ages. Some
Christian clergymen know the
true answer; others do not. Few
of them who know the facts have
the courage to state them Here
they are based on personal re-
search according to history.
There is no contemporaneous
record of the arrest, trial convic-
ton or execution of Jesus. We
know of the happenings only
through information found in the
New Testament of the Bible. This
account was composed many
years after the crucifixion took
place. We are not even certain
of the exact date when it oc-
Cured.
But the Gospels show plainly
that Jesus was put to death by
the Romans and not by the Jews.
History will verify this informa-
ton.
But the Gospels show plainly
that Jesus was put to death by
the Romans and not by the Jews.
History will verify this informa-
ton.
Judea, the territory in Pales-
tine with which we are concerned,
had been ruled by Rome for near
ly 100 years before the event took
place and crucifiXion was a Ro-
man technique of execution in
that province during that time.
Forty years before Jesus was
born, the Sanhedrin, the most au-
thoritative Jewish body, lost the
power to put anyone to death for
any crime.
Two distinct charges were
lodged against Jesus. The Jews
charged Him with blasphemy, a
purely religious offense, because
He said He was the Messiah
(They expected another sent OF
GodD The Roman authorities
claimed that Jesus committed a
political offense by declaring
Himself to be a king in thel inc
of David. Such a declaration was
treacherous to the Roman govern
ment.
Jesus was first taken into Gus
tody by a few Jewish persons
who held a preliminary hearing
on the charge of blasphemy ano
then delivered Him over to PLATE
who compounded His offense by
giving it political significance.
PLATE in turn found Hin
guilty of a political offense as
charged and ordered His eXecu
ton by crucifixion. CrucifiXior

BAILMENTS AND SALES
DISTINGUISHED
BY ROBERT E. LEE
For the n. G. Bar Association

AtklTS look some corn TO
mill for the purpose of having
it ground into meal. He told
Bailey, the operator of the mill,
that he wanted to get back meal
ground from the very corn that
he brought, and that he would
be back in week to pick up the
meal. In the meantime the mill
and its contents were destroyed
by fire. The fire was not caused
by any negligence on the part of
Bailey. May Bailey be sued for
the value of the corn delivered
to him?
No. The transaction was a
bailment. Atkins was a bailor
and Baileywas a bailcc. In a
ballhent the possession of per-
sonal property is delivered to
the bailcc, but the title or own
ershp of the property is retain
ed by the bailor. The particular
transaction was bailmcnt be-
cause Bailey agreed to return
the identical property in an alt
cred form.
! If property delivered to an
Iothcr under bailment is lost
or destroyed without the faul,
of the bailcc, the loss falls upon
the bailor, because it is lis
property that is lost. The risk
of loss for the destruction OF
property, unless otherwise agre-
led, is upon him vino has tho
: title.
Suppose Bailcy'S mill had not
