    The Equal Employment Opportunity Commission went after a small metal shop
    that it claimed hired too many Hispanic and Polish-American workers and
    not enough blacks. The panel forced the company to run advertisements in
    Chicago newspapers inviting blacks to file claims for compensation, EVEN
    IF THEY NEVER APPLIED FOR A JOB WITH THE COMPANY.
    Several of the 451 people who filed claims had been IN PRISON at the time
    of the company's alleged discrimination, but the commission FORCED the
    company to give them WINDFALL PAYOUTS anyhow.

many make that an objection against the spirituality of their
convictions, that it is so easy to see things as they now see them. They
have often heard, that conversion is a work of mighty power, manifesting
to the soul what neither man nor angel can give such a conviction of;
but it seems to them that these things are so plain and easy, and
rational, that any body can see them. If they are asked, why they never
saw thus before, they say, it seems to them it was because they never
thought of it. But very often these difficulties are soon removed by
those of another nature; for when God withdraws, they find themselves as
it were blind again, they for the present lose their realizing sense of
those things that looked so plain to them, and, by all they can do, they

Persons after their conversion often speak of religious things as
seeming new to them; that preaching is a new thing; that it seems to
