TODAY and

(By Frank Parker Stockbridge)
BIBLE anniversary
When Miles Coverdale published the
ill's li complete translation of the Bible
tu English, ju.-ii. 400 years ago ? Octo
ber 4, lo t) ? lie did a greater -ei vi< e
Jian lie dreamed of
All Doctor Coverdale was thinking
of was to make the Word of (lod
available to all who wanted to read il.
Unit itJio first result was to arouse tin
desire to read, among (lie common
people of England. The beginnings of
our school svsiUini, which denies ediuoa
tiOn to nobody, can be traced to that.
Vud besides bringing the Bible to
everybody, Dr. Coverdale gave the
English language itself its fixed
I'orin. Before 1<)35 the upper classes
spoke mostly Norman French, and
only iho lovver classes the timp! ;*
tongue of Anglo ca\on origin.
The Coverdale Bible, tnd its revis
ion 8(5 years later into the King Janu s
Version, now the standard translation
wherever English is spokem, gave th<*
English people for the first iime .?
common speech) used by all classes
Ami tliar, I think, was the bcgiuniiu
of England's greatness.

PRAYER . . ( . A .its power
When an otiVaudiii!* firure in the
field of medical research comes on:
flatly and ?lof! !*<?>, prayer h:is
|H>\vcr to heal bodily ills, it is sonn
t.biiisr to pay attention to. Dr. Alexis

lesions is based upon the observation
of patieits cured ar:i:<?st instantly of

I have been greatly impressed oy
the ?*rowinj* belief in the power ol (
pi'ayer to heal. Dr> Carrel's words
will ^o far io confirm believers in their
faith.
TURKEYS hire out

AnotJiur fnove which is under *eri

proposal of legislation- which would
pot the milk snpph of eities on the
basis of a public utility and subject <>
rigid state and federal control. This
Jjas been talked of before, but now the
seems serious.
The Preside n't 's statement on the
1936 budget, coupled with the promise
of a determined effort to reduce f?j?v
ernmental costs for the next tisca.
year is further calculated to strength
en the administration's position. Mr.
Roosevtet assured the nation than nn

I Two significant items <>t new 5 emerp:
j oil from the recon: mooting hero of
the Republican oxooirtivo committee.
Ono was (tho positivo assura wo, con
veyed to the committee by Lawrence
Ritchie and others closely a-^oeiated
with Mr. Hoover, that tin' formt r
President is not j; candidate and dov<
not desire to be considered. Tho other j
was the suggestion pnt forward thai
the Republican National Con vent io:> 1
of 1936 should bo held after the Dem
ocrats have held theirs, reversing :<
custom i?f moro than 75 .wars. Th>.
would fiive the Republicans a 'arp?. ?o
shoot at.
Wiltih Mr Hoover oat of tho run
ning, talk of Republican candidates
focuses even more strongly upon Cot.
Frank Knox of Chicago, Senator Bo
rah of idaho and Governor Landon r.i"
Kansas. Mr Hearst's annouiMod pref
oronee for Governor Landon may or
may not be helpful
The amazing ftrongth of Senntor
Borah in all recent polls is giving
party leaders something to tl ink about
Tho posibility looms of a deadlock be
tween Rorah, Knox and Landon, out
of which Senator Vandonberfj of
Michigan might be put forward as 1
generally acceptable compromise can
didate. It is, howover, a long time now
until the nominating conventions, a.id
anything may happen.
Some .'?mart Washington observe;-*
think that General Hugh Johnson has
his eye on the Presidency. If a situa
tion should develop in which a coalition
anlti-Administration ticket, appoaii ig
to conservative Democrat* as well as
to regular Republicans, seems co Ik*
called for, it might provide G?-ner;d
Johnson's opportunity.
