B. I. American citizens who see evidence of sabotage or of the presence of enemy agents are urged to "tell it to the FBI," which will handle the investigation from there on. It is not necessary for loyal Americans to take the law in their own hands or to dispose of suspected agents of the enemy. There is am pie evidence that the FBI is able to continue the work that it has done so well since the outbreak of hostilities.

In his message to Congress, veto ing the anti-subsidy legislation, President Roosevelt called attention to the fact that "more than 4,000,000 families have not had an increase of more than five per cent in their in come during the last eighteen months." He said the legislation ignores "the millions of salaried, white-collar workers the school teachers, the GOD ENCOURAGES MOSES International Sunday School Lesson for July 18, 1943.

' Our lesson for this week follows lm- the clerks whose salaries have re mained low but whose standards are being cruelly and inequitably slashed by higher food prices." Well, who represents these class es? Congress, acting under pres sure of organized groups, shows no interest in their welfare. The class es themselves, for some strange rea son, seem utterly unable to organize to protect themselves in the game of pressure politics. Sicily First Step The anxiety of the Nazi who ex claimed, "Why don't the British and Americans come instead of talking about it all the time?" is now par tially relieved. But the landings in Sicily do not give Berlin any assur ance that there will not be othe. "ssecond fronts" to deal with. In some respects Sicily has seem ed almost a sure thing an inevitable first steD. To the sea-minded Brit ish especially it stands as the key to the Mediterranean. So long us the Axis possessed air bases and har bors in the island, Allied shipping could never be wholly free from raids. With Sicily in Allied possession, not only is the sea clear but the Italian boot itself will lie under the immi- recorded 1 1CU k, uucai VA III VWMVll. I Igll l W1UI utvi. " , This will in turn present a difficult their problems so much better than mediately upon the events in our last lesson. Moses is still standing before the burning bush, talking with God. As pointed out, he realizes fully the un organized condition of his people, the Israelites, and the immensity of the task which confronts anyone who is to assume the task of leading them out of Egypt. He also is fully con scious of the attitude of the Egypt ians toward the Hebrew children and knows that, although they are a hated people, the Egyptians will not be easily persuaded to permit them to leave because then they would be deprived of their labor. In a spirit, we think, of humble ness and perhaps of self-conscious ness, more than unwillingness, Moses argues the matter with God, in verse 13, of Exodus 3, he questions whether the children of Israel will accept him as their God-sent deliv erer and we can readily understand this attitude of Moses. He has been awav from his people now for forty vears has been apparently out of touch with and indifferent, apparent ly, to the trials and oppressions which thev have had to bear. Why should God, he thinks they will say, select such a one as he when there r many others who have been right with them and who understand Even after all of this, Moses seems not to be thoroughly convinced that he is the right one to be the leader of hip people. He pleads that he is not eloquent; that he is siow of speech, and of a slow tongue, not realizing that God needs something more for the guidance of man than the fluent gift of speech. The reply of God to this was to call Moses at 'tention to the fact that He was the giver of a man's mouth, the maker of man dumb or deaf, the giver of sight. God then commanded: "Now, therefore go, and I will be with thy mouth, and teach thee what thou shalt speak." To this Moses replies, "Send whom Thou wilt, Lord." Dr. F. R. Mever considers this to say, "Since Thou are determined to send me, and I must undertake the mis sion, then let it be so, but I would that it might be another, and I go because I am compelled." God then tells Moses that his brother Aaron, who "can speak well," shall act as his' spokesman to the people; he shall serve as a mouthpiece for you, and you shall inspire him." Accepting his task, Moses takes leave of his father-in-law, Jethro, and with his wife and sons starts foi Egypt. He meets his brother Aaron, in the desert and they together ap pear before the children of Israel in Egypt to tell them what God had assured them must be done. me npnnlp believed that God had taken i i pity on them and their suffering and so they bowed their heads and wor shipped Him. They went from this meeting to see Pharoah to make their request for a three-day journey into the wilderness, but the Egyptians, fear ing some trickery, that through this pretext might make their escape, refused their request and instead multiplied their burdens the more. Moses undertook the tremendous task which God had given him, and once putting his hands to the plow, newer looked back. He was God's annotated agent, doing God's will, and be was conscious at all times of the fact that God was with him, in tne undertaking. Are we' willing to un dertake the "impossible" for God? 3 uu BETHEL NEWS Mrs. Pearl Thompson and children, Fred and Betty, of Brooklyn, N. Y., are visiting her aunt. Mrs. Hattie Parmer.
