OF course, stayed and, because she had

I concluded she expressed her sympathy
simply and appropriately.

One winter in New York some years back,
nothing seemed to 60 right for me. An
attack of influenza had knocked me out, and
that may have had something to do with my
mood. My play, which ran six months in
London, had Topped on Broadway "a Bit
ter blow. Ideas for my next novel had so
completely dried up that was convinced |
would never write another word. For these,
and half-a-dozen other reasons, l felt myself
singled out by malicious fate - the most
ill-used and afflicted of men.
Such was my state of mind when, on
bright January afternoon, at the suggestion
of my agent, went to call on the widow of
an editor to discuss a routine matter in con-
nection with the release Of some foreign
rights in one of my earlier novels.
In my depressed frame of mind, was not
quite prepared for the gracious welcome of
the woman who rose to greet me when |
entered the living room of her small but
exquisitely furnished apartment in the East
Seventies. She was quite tall, and her face
had those good bones that bring beauty with
maturity. She must have been close to so,
but l should have put her down as ten
years younger had known nothing of her
New York career.
W. had never met before, but
the poise and assurance of her manner made
a stranger feel a friend. She had direct
ness which made me like her instantly so
that it was easy to take up the matter of
business which had brought me and to

WITNESSES TO JESUS
John 5:3l-41

Jesus anticipates objections to
His great claims that He had
made-that He was the Son of
God, the giver of spiritual and
physical life. and judge of all
men. He had made these claims
on His own authority. One bear
ing testimony to himself is not
sufficient. Other evidence must
also be presented. The Jewish
leaders were suspicious of Jesus.
They were spiritually blind and
unbelievers. So Jesus presents
four witnesses that would cor
rebate His claims.
AS we consider the testimony
of these Witnesses let US keep
in mind that the Holy Spirit led
the Apostle John to write this
Gospel record in order that those
who read might believe that
Jesus is the Christ, the Son of
God; and that believing ye might
have life through His name"
The first witness that Jesus
presents is that of John the
Baptist Oversees 32-35). From
Matthew 2l:26 we learn that
John was a prophet, a man of
God. The officials of the Jews
recognized him as such and sent
a delegation to inquire into his
mission John 1:19-2O. Even
Herod, a Roman governor, feared
John, knowing that he was a
just and holy man mark 500.
John taught the pre-eXistence of
Jesus John 1:15). He also de-
clared Jesus position as LORD
John 1:2O, as we'll as being the
Lamb of God G:29, tc make
atonement for SIM ard the Son
of God (l:34). If they believed
John, they should accept Jesus.
Next Jesus presents the testi-
mony of His works (verse 36),
Even some of the Pharisees had
recognized Him as "a "ACher

| come from God" (John 3:2). We
know that He did works that no
ordinary person could have done
then, nor now-and by their
fruits We shall know them He
did His work unselfishly, in love,
and for the glory of God the
Father.
The third witness that Jesus
presents is none othe~ than God
the Father (verse 37). We do
have the record given in Mat
thew BIT (Which probably only
John the Baptist and Jesus
heard) and in Matthew 17:5
(Which only three disciples and
Jesus heard), but in our text the
perfect tense is used and "sug-
gests a witness which God put
into the world with abiding
effects" ''It is witness which
is implanted in every man, and
which intuitively recognizes the
truth concerning Christ when it
is presented" The prepared
SOUL receives Him. Others fight
it with reasonings, excuses, or
outright refusal.
The fourth and last witness is
that of the Scriptures oversees
38-40). The Scriptures here men
toned are the books of the Old
Testament and which were writ
ten by Moses and the prouhets
| (Luke 1929; 24:27; John las;
Deuteronomy 18:15-l6). ''In the
Old Testament we have Christ
foreshadowed in the histories.
typified in the ordinances, anti
cipated in the songs, predicted in
| the prophets: and we could add,
manifested in the Gospels, pro-
claimed in the Acts, Interpreted
in the Epistles, unveiled in the
Apocalypse"
while the Scriptures arc the
| great abiding witness Tor Christ,
they do not of themselves Impart
| life" The mere handling and
reading of them do not impart
salvation. There must be the per-
sonal appropriation of their
teachings.
The closing verses (41-47) are
a revelation of the heart of the
natural man. Though four good
and dependable witnesses had
been presented to verify Jesus
claim that He is God and t."
giver or physical and spiritual
life, and the judge Of all men, yet
they were all rejected. Men are
more willing to accept the plans
and teachings of men rather
than the plans and teachings OF
the Almighty God (Verse 43)

In Spy Flight

CHICAGO, May 13 (AP).-.
Adlai Stevenson asserted today
that Our country has suffered
q severe injury in the past few
days"
"On the very eve of the
summit conference, the Pres
ident has been acutely en-
barrasSed-just as he leaves
to take his place at one Of the
historic incidents in the great
struggle of this century-the
contest for the undecided
masses of the world who will
one day weigh the scales de-
ciSively."
Mr.. Stevenson underlined
his statement yesterday that
the Inflated spy flight over
Russia was a blunder at q
critical time in international
peace efforts.
The 1852 and 1856 Demo-
cratic presidential nominee
spoke yesterday to the Con-
ference on World Tensions at
the University Of Chicago. Con-
ferees from all over the world
are discussing paths to peace.
Today Mr.. Stevenson ad-
dressed a luncheon for the
centennial of the Northwestern
University Law School.
Cites '56 Proposal
In his Northwestern speech
he declared:
"One of the issues on the
conference table at Paris will
be the controlling of nuclear
bomb tests, This issue has
taxed the capacity of people
for full understanding of a
problem which still seems al
most unreal. defying the reach
OF our minds and even our
imaginations.
Yet the basic elements in
this issue are not beyond the
peoples competence. I wish
they had been debated out
when the proposal to cease
these tests was first made in
1856.
IF they had been, there
would not be today the doubt.
the uncertainty, the divided
counselS that still becloud this
subject in our country and may
still imperil ratification of any
agreement we might reach"
Mr.. Stevenson urged that
President Eisenhower go to
Paris armed with the full
strength of this Nations deep
est convictions undeterred by
voices Of timidity or by any
threat Of partisan division"
Calls Incident 'Blunder"
In his address yesterday, he
called the spy plane incident
an administration blunder but
added this is no time for parti-
san censure.
Mr.. Stevenson, who urged
Americans to pray for the sue
cess OF the Presidents mission
to Paris next week, said the
plane incident has caused "a
drop in Americas reputation
around the world"
THE temperature has fallen
sharply at the summit" he de-
clared, adding that he hopes
the incident will not lead the
Russians to really question
our good faith in seeking q way
to peace" Il
Sees Intelligence Need
While backing the President
on the necessity for gathering
intelligence-that was the mis-
sion Of the plane downed May
1-Mr. Stevenson said:
But our timing, our words,
our management must and will
be sharply questioned
I'm short. our Government
blundered and admitted it. And
the blunder has made the
Presidents task at the summit
meeting more difficult. Changes
must and will be made"
