Wouldn't You
,@s~.sss,-p.,ss,.s,sN

Wouldn't you like wonderful offer? Listen to what our Lord and Savior offers. Come unto me all ye that labor and are heavy laden, and will give you rest" Matt. 11:28. If any man thirst, let him come unto me, and drink" John 7:37. If the Son therefore shall make you free, ye shall be free indeed" John 8:36. 'T. am the Way, the Truth, and the Life" John 14:6.
 These texts suggest the many things which Christ offers to men. The great "I am" statements of Johns Gospel are indeed offers of Jesus to men, and John pre- sents these to show in what ways Jesus offers himself to men.
 I am the bread of life Food I am the light of the world Light
 I am the door-Liberty
 I am the good shepherd-guid- ance
 I am the resurrection and the life Eternal Life.
 Although sin makes many promises, offers hope, bright 2 lights, success, "a good time, popu- larly, worldly wisdom and fame, it is well for US to catch the tone and motive Of these declar- ations. Sin will but destroy rel gardless of the picture presented of the promises made. The motive back of the declarations of Christ were never made to bring some thing to himself; It is always declaration that offers something to someone else. We can vision these given to us with out stretched arms and spoken in tender compassion Come unto me-" no one needs to hunger or doubt or stray or die Christ off, fers forgiveness of sin. Jesus off fers the only hope of deliverence- Christ offers release from sins power. Sin shall not retain do- minion over you. Christ offers a love that transends all human love.
 Wouldn't you come to this Christ and accept His generous

Newsprint Prices
BY the Associated Press

Chairman Mangnuson. Demo-
crat of Washington, Of the Sen
ate Interstate Commerce Com
mittee has announced the group
will investigate recent newsprint
price increases in hearings start
ing February 26.
Paper manufacturers, news
paper publishers and Govern
ment officials will appear at the
public hearings. Senator Mag
nuson said yesterday. The Com
merce Department and the Fed
eral Trade Commission are
among the Government agencies
which will be asked to testify,
he added.
The Senator said it was clear
that the $4-a-ton increase in
newsprint prices imposes a
hardship on a great segment of
the American press and other
newsprint users"
He SAID that in addition to
exploring newsprint price pat
terms. the hearings "can be ex-
pected to go into possible new
production sources-such as the
Alaskan forests which would
seem to offer great possibilities
If low cost power. such as now
available in the Pacific North
west. can be developed on the
ground in Alaska"

MIAMI. Fla. Jan. "a (R.-
William c. Rose. who drinks his
whisky straight-and often
proved in court he can down 20
slugs without getting drunk.
Whether he drank himself
scott free of a drunken driving
charge still is undetermined. City
Court Judge Francis A. Sobieski
said after yesterdays courtroom
exhibition that he probably
would hand down a decision to-
morrow.
Mr.. Rose hoped to prove that
a reading by the city's drunk
ometer was no accurate meas
ure Of a mans ability to hold
his liquor and still drive a car
safely.
The 44-year-old apartment
house manager, who likes his
pint of spirits every day, was
arrested December IS. Tested by
the drunkometer, his reading
came up .246. A person who gets
a reading Of .150-which indi-
Gates 150/1000ths Of per cent
Of alcohol in the bloodstream-
is considered drunk within the
meaning of the law.
Judge Sobieski agreed to let
the 238-pound Miamian drink to
a .246 reading in his courtroom
after Mr.. Rose and his attorneys,
M. H. Rosenhouse and Ben Mill
tana, challenged the accuracy of
the drunkometer.
Mr.. Rose came in for the
drinking bout with three pints
of an SO proof blended whisky.
After taking a series of visual
and reaction tests In lieu of all
actual driving test, Mr.. Rose
began hitting the bottle.
He drank almost a pint and a
half in about AZ hours. He had
several cups Of coffee during
that time and half a sandwich
at lunch.

Society Doctor
Ordered Tried
In WidowDeat|l

EASTBOURNE, England, Jan.
"a (R.-Five magistrates today
ordered DR.. John Bodkin Adams
to stand trial on a charge of
numbering wealthy widow
patient.
The 58-year-old society physi-
clan. asked If he had anything
to say, replied:
II am not guilty and I reserve
my defense"
The magistrates decision =
similar in American legal pro-
cedure to the decision of a grand
jury-came after a preliminary
hearing lasting two weeks.
The magistrates themselves,
three men and two women, re-
tired for half an hour after
prosecution and defense had
summed up the case. They could
have released the doctor or
charged him with manslaughter.
DR.. Adams is accused of drug
ging three wealthy patients to-
death in this seaside resort city
in order to benefit from their
wills.
He was held for trial on the
specific charge of numbering
Mrs. Edith Morrell, S1-year-old
widow. in 1850. Alfred John
Hullett and his wife, Gertrude,
are the names of the other al
legged victims.
The Irish-born physician was
arrested last December after a
prolonged investigation.
The prosecution wound up its
case this morning. After the
44th and last prosecution witness
left the stand, Defense Attorney
Godfrey Lawrence declared that
with all the force at my COM
Imand" there had not been
enough evidence to warrant
committing DR.. Adams for trial
by Judge and jury.
The prosecution said Mrs.
Morrell and Hullett we're drugged
to death and Mrs. Hullett driven
to suicide and that DR.. Adams
benefited from their wills and
gifts.
Mr.. Lawrence said the fact that
DR.. Adams prescribed heavy
doses of morphine or heroin was
not evidence that these drugs
were ever administered to the
patient"
Administration to the patient
is an absolutely essential in
|gredient in the crowns case. 1t

Wilson. who appointed the group
some months ago to study the
departments pay problems.
While the Cordiner groups
study did not actually extend to
all defense agencies civilian
positions, its report did urge
Irealignment of classified en-
Iployes' positions in line with the
proposed boosts for scientists, en-
Igineers and other professional
personnel.
Secretary Wilson is expected
to make the report public soon,
lalong with his own views as to
what stand the administration
should take in regard to the
Cordiner committees proposals.
The Cordiner group found that
Federal salaries for Defense De-
partment scientists. engineers,
technicians and other profess
sional personnel Jagged consider
ably behind comparable positions
in private industry.
The Cordiner committees re-
port also urged that the depart
ment'S scientists. engineers and
technicians have their pay set
under a separate schedule from
the classification Act so that pay
adjustments can be made more
flexible and expeditions. in line
with industry pay trends.
The groups report has strong
implications for the rest of the
Federal service, since whatever
administration backing may re-
suit for the Cordiner proposals
would have to extend to other
Government agencies as well.
MOORE SEEN SET-There are
reports that Republican csc
member George Moore is in
line for another Federal assign
ment. A number of successors
have been mentioned, among
them Christopher Phillips, dep
Iuty assistant Secretary of
State for International Or
ganization Affairs; and former
Republican Representatives Ellis
worth of Oregon and Lovre of
South Dakota.
However, top congressional
leaders. who are close friends of
Mr.. Moore. say they have not
been informed by the White
House of any such move and
they predict that Mr.. Moore will
be reappointed to a new term
Jas Civil Service Commissioner
next month.
In fact. there are many in
formed people around town who
feel the present three commits
sioners-MesSrs. Young, Moore
and Lawton-will be reappointed
to new terms next month.
In the case of Mr.. Moore, one
