By EDWARD W. PICKARD by Western Newspaper Union. SBCRETAItY OF THE TREASURY MORGENTHAU, In his first speech since taking office, forecast an even tual Inflation of $2,SOO,000,000 by an nouncing tne treasury expects sooner or later to apply its gold "prof It" to a reduction of the national debt, "for the present this $2,800,000,000 Is un der lock and key," Mr. Morgenthau said. ".Most of it, by au thority of congress, is segregated In the so called stabilization fund, and for the present we propose to But I call your atten Secretary Morgenthau keep It there. tion to the fact that ultimately we ex pect this 'profit' to flow back into the stream of our other revenues and thereby reduce the national debt." The "profit" in question nccrued through a bookkeeping operation when the amount of gold fixed by law as the equivalent of $1 was reduced from 23.22 grains to 13.71 grains. This meant - that an ounce of gold was worth $20.67 one day and the next had a value of $3". Just previously the treasury had taken titl? to all the monetary gold in the country, paying for it at the .$20.07 rate. On every ounce It made a "prof It" of $14.33. the difference between the purchase figure and $35. The secretary gave In figures his es timate of the cost of the New Deal. Against an Increase of $0,000,000, 000 in the national debt, he asserted various assets should be deducted He listed them as follows: An increase of $1,000,000,000 In the treasury's cash balance since March 4 The gold "profit," amounting to $2, 800,000.000. An increase In the net assets of agencies wholly owned or financed by the government, amounting to 81,005.- 000,000. Morgenthau ilid not carry the priq osition through to Its arithmetical conclusion, but the cost of the New Deal under his theory would amount to $505.0(10.000. GEN. UUUH S. JOHNSON, through a spokesman, has flatly denied the story of his dispute with Donald Itlchberg and Secretary of I-abor Per kins over control of the NRA, but well- informed poisons In Washington be lieve It Is true. The President calmed the storm but put off the decision. The NItA Is being reorganized temporarily to serve until th? next congress gives It permanent form, and for the pres ent Johnson retains his supremacy. fo bring about greater efficiency and economy the codes of the NItA are being realigned. Industry is dl vided Into i'li classes, the Initial move toward cutting down the number of codes from (582 to about 250 and group ing them In ten grand divisions. Merg ers are relied on to make the drastic reduction In the number of codes. Codes with similar or related Inter ests an- grouped together. Allied businesses will thus receive Identical treatment on roniuion problems, offi cials said. The codes also are ex pected to be easier and cheaper to ad minister. i ne n classifications in turn are based on four fundamental groups as follows : Producing Industries Food, textiles. leather and fur, ferrous metals, non- ferrous metals, non-metallic products. fuel, lumber and timber, chemicals and paints and drugs, paper, rubber. Fabricating Industries Equipment, manufacturing, graphic arts, construc tion. .service industries Public utilities. transportation, communications, amuse ments, flnvnee. Distributing trades Professions and services. hnles:ile nnd retail codes. fiKNKKAL JOHNSON has retwated- ly said that he could not afford to sacrifice his private business earn ing capacity, by remaining at the head of the NItA on a salary of $0,000 a year. Intuiting that he would have to retire from his governmental Job. It Is now revealed that on July 1 his salary was Increased to $15,000 a year r.y order or President Koosevelt. I LCH political benefit to the ad- ministration lb the congressional campaign Is eiected to accrue from the reciprocal trade treaty with Cuba w-jifth has Just been announced. It Is the first nf the projected trade agreements and little criticism of It Is likely to he heard. The domestic sugar producers, who- or course do not like the reduction in the duty on Cuban sugar,, were prepared rpr the action by discussions of past months and ac cordingly had adjusted themselves to the. situation., i. - ! " ' ; The domestic i'ibacvu Interest are consoled for reduction In duties by the limltarion of.. Import of Cuban cigar leaf tobacco, cigar and che root of all kind to 18 per cent of the total quantity of tobacco used to' th United State during the prevtoea year for the manufacture of cigars. -The redm-tUtna In ..duties on . fruits ami "w"fnhlc imimrted from Cuba of Current apply only to certain seasons and thus are not as objectionable to domestic producers as they might otherwise be. As against the concessions made to Cuba, which are regarded as so Im portant from the standpoint of that country as to offer great promise of economic recovery, there should be rather widespread benefits to agricul tural and Industrial producers of the United States. The most valuable con cession is a great reduction In the Cuban duty on hog lard. DELIEVIN'G the emergency phase of L agricultural adjustment is about over, the AAA officials are simplifying their program for the future. Tenta tively they propose these control plans for 1935: Wheat 10 per cent reduction In acreage below that of. the base pe riod, 1930-32 Inclusive; desired acre age, about 62,000,000; desired produc tion, 750,000,000 to 775,000,000 bushels. Corn Possibly a 15 to 20 per cent reduction In acreage, instead of 20 to 30 per cent as specified by the 1934 program. Hogs und other livestock No direct control, supply being regulated by ad justment of feed crops. Cotton 10 to 15 per cent acreage reduction under base period, 1928-32, inclusive, Instead of about 40 per cent; desired acreage, 32,000.000 to 37,000, 000; desired production. 11,500,000 to 13,000,000 bales. rpEHGUSONISM" In Texas was 1 s struck a probably fatal blow when James V. Allred, the young at torney general of the state, won the Democratic nomina tion for governor In the Democratic run off primary. By a ma orlty of about 43,000 votes he defeated Tom F. Hunter, who was backed for the nomination by "Mo' Ferguson, the present governor, and her bus band, James 10. Per guson, who formerly occupied the office un til ousted by the legislature. The Fer gusons have controlled Democratic politics In Texas for some twenty years, but their sway probably Is now coming to an end. Mr. Allred Is only thirty-five years old, hut has come to the top swiftly. His nomination is equivalent to election. UPTON authoi SINCLAIR, the Socialist tlnir who turned Democrat in order to run" for the Democratic nomi nation for governor of California, suc ceeded In his purpose. In the primaries he ran far ahead of George Creel, who was director of propaganda during the World war; Justus S. Wardell, con servative, and Milton K. Voting, the Democratic candidate In 19,'to. Sin clair campaigned on a plan "to etui poverty In California" which was set forth In a book he published. It culls for the state to take over and operate defunct factories and businesses and farms acquired because of tax delin quencies as a means of placing the unemployed. Sinclair's opponent In the election will be Frank J. Merriam, the Itepubllcan acting governor. Sen ator Hirntn W. Johnson easily won re nomluation and is on the Republican, Democratic, Progressive and Common wealth tickets; his only opponent is (Jeorge It. Klrkpatrlck, Socialist. South Carolina Democrats will have to hold a runolT primary to deeide be tween Cole L. Blease. former governor and senator, and Olin D. Johnston, young attorney of Spartansburg. for the gubernatorial nomination. In a referendum held as a guide for the leg islature the drys were defeated. Democrats of Mississippi also will hold a runoff primary to determine whether Former Governor Theodore O. Bilbo or Senator Hubert D. Stephens shnll represent the state in the senate.

Lesson for September 16 ISAIAH CONTRASTS FALSE AND TRUE WORSHIP LESSON TEXT Isaiah 1:1-10. GOLDEN TEXT Who shall ascend Into the hill of the Lord? or who hall standDn his holy place T Ha that hath clean hands, and a pure heart: who hath not lifted up his aoul unto vanity, nor sworn deceitfully. Psalm 14:3, 4. PRIMARY TOPIC Telling God We're Sorry. JUNIOR TOPIC When God's People Sin. INTERMEDIATE AND SENIOR TOP IC What Is True Worship? YOUNO PEOPLE AND ADULT TOP IC The Nature of True Worship. Isaiah's visions present the redemp tive purpose of God through the con summation of the Messianic kingdom. The first verse Is the title. The book contains prophetic utterances of ear lier and later dates. Chapter 1; from which our lesson is taken, contains the divine arraignment of the people for their sins. I. The Moral State of the People, (vv. 2-4). 1. Filial Ingratitude (v. 2). The universe is summoned to hear the Lord's complaint against Judah and Israel for their base Ingratitude and even rebellion. In spite of God's care, even as of a fnther for his children, they persisted In sin and In violation of their covenant with God. 2. Brutal stupidity (t. 3). The ox and the ass are proverbially stupid, but Israel's stupidity exceeded theirs. Is rael would not recognize God as her rightful sovereign or acknowledge him as the author of her mercies. 3. Habitual evil-doers (v. 4). They were not sinners In outward act mere ly, but In nature and heart were laden with Iniquity. By heredity they passed their vices from generation to gener ation. II. Their Consequent Miseries (vv. 5-9). 1. Their perplexity (v. 5). The hand of chastisement had been laid upon them ; but this failed to do them good. Their afflictions were followed by deeper and more heinous sins. 2. Their awful confusion (v. 6). The calamity which befell them ex tended to all classes. 3. The desolation of their country . (vv. 7, 8). Revolts from within and Invasions from without left their coun try desolate. Physical ruin always follows moral and 'spiritual decadence. 4. Assurance to a remnant (r. 0). God's purposes cannot fall. A rem nant was. saved in Israel This la strikingly set forth in the ninth chap ter of Romans. III. Formal Worship Rebuked (vv. 10-15). Notwithstanding the calamities visit ed upon them, they did not neglect the observance of religious rites and ceremonies. They punctiliously ob served the forms of religion while in dulging in Iniquitous practices. 1. God does not derive benefit from religious sacrifices (v. 11). Our wor ship and service are not for God's profit, but for that of ourselves. 2. God's attitude toward formal worship (vv. 12-14). The very rites and ceremonies which God ordained for the purpose of helping men to ap proach him become disgusting and Irk some to him when formally Indulged. 3. God's refusal (v. 15). Every act of worship while the heart and life are steeped with Iniquity only Incites the divine anger. IV. An Amended Life God's Re quirement (vv. 16-20). Though the nation had so grievously sinned, their case was not hopeless. However, In order to enjoy his mercy there must be: 1. A cleansing (v. 10). "Wash you, make you clean." The washing by wa ter symbolized the cleansing by the blood of the Son of God. "2.-"Put away the evil of your do ings" (v. 16). 3. "Cease to do evil" (v. 10). Gen uine repentance causes one to desist from the practice of sin. 4. "Learn to do well" (v. 17). One can only cease to do evil by learning to do well. 5. "Seek Judgment" (.-17). Bur dens, should be removed from the op pressed, justice should be meted out to- the fatherless, and the widows should be befriended. 6VT94coiIragement to come to God (r. lSK Though their guilt was great and the Judgment which befell them was awful, God' pardoning and clean sing grace was sufficient i - V. A" Premise and a Warning (rr. 10. 20). -v , i L The promise (t. 10). They were to eat the good of the land on the con dition of a surrendered" win and aa obedient life God's terms. ; 2. A solemn warning (. 20). Re fusal to bear God's appeal and rebel lion against God's demands would re sult In being devoured with th sword. - Prayer . ; And what, God can do, prayer can do; for prayer binds God, because it Is the prayer of faith ; and faith, a it were, overcomes God. Now prayer is the flame of faith, the vent (outcome or utterance) of faith ; and faith Is a victorious triumphant grace with God himself.

Big Job Roads Ask $170,000,000 Can't Shoot Santa Claus Steel Coffin for Wong " It Is announced that the government will feed, at public expense, men that go on strike while the strike lasts. The American'' Federation "Of Labor representative' In the S0uth says the 500,0000 textile workers -about to go on strike will look to (he government to take care of them while the strike lasts. According te the Associated Press, Harry L. Hopkins, government .relief administrator, says: "it 1b a surpris ing thlbg to me we haven't had a d d sight more strikes than we bave." We shall probably have strikes in sufficient number if the government supports all strikers, and, If it should decide to pay them out of public mon eys the wages they, are asking while the strike lasts, there might be a great many strikes. Railroads ask for an Increase of $170,000,000 In freight rates to offset increased expenses which "reflect economic policies of the government" Railroads must run, and If the people are not paying enough they must pay more. It is to be hoped that Increased payment will provide good pay for railroad workers, conductors, engi neers, trainmen, track walkers, all others. There Is nowhere in the world a better body of men, more reliable, dig nified, obliging, safe, sober and use ful, than American railroad workers. The "American Liberty league," or ganized to protect the beautiful old American dollar and "vested Interests" from the "New Deal," expects former Governor Al Smith to help. Mr. John W. Davis, who also ran for President on the Democratic ticket, Is said to be with the league "heart and soul." v Former Governor Smith's friends think be may be "too busy." The probability of beating President Roosevelt's party this fall was ex pressed well by a former Democratic cabinet member who is not a Roose velt man: "You can't shoot Santa Claus, you know, especially around Christmas." This administration Is, for tens of millions of Americans and hundreds of American cities, the greatest "Santa Claus" In all history. Edmund Wong On Wah, Chinese air pilot, dreamed that he crashed after a collision and told his American wife that when he did die he wanted an Iron coffin. Wong On Wah was selected with another Chinese flyer, Fong Shek, to maneuver above the steamship Bre men, bringing In Gen. Chang Fuhway The planes collided, Wong was killed and his desire to fly and fight fur the Chinese army thwarted. He will b burled here In a $750 steel coffin General Chang, whom Wong never saw, gave the order. Why do you suppose Wong wanted an Iron coffin? it could not keep the soul In or keep the worms out, pre sumably. Many prosperous Americans are hurled In coffins nf bronze. Not long ago Mussolini und Hitler met with all signs of amity eternal at Venice. , Hands were clasped, vows of friendship and co-operation exchnnged. Mussolini was to visit Hitler at his country estate as soon as possible, and the world said, "How lovely to see dic tator brethren dwelling together In amity !" And now the Mussolini visit to Hit ler Is postponed Indefinitely. . Musso lini did hot like the Dull fuss assassins lion, and seems to hold Hitler's Kastt friends responsible. . Europe discusses the expulsion of Mrs. Sinclair Lewis from Germany as a -forerunner' or rigid - presa control All copies of the tendon Time In Ger man were recently seized and It Is ex pected that foreign correspondents will be asked to leave If they write any thing displeasing to Hitler. Engines would not last long without a safety valve, and liberty does not last long without free expression of opinion. Modern dictators heed to encroach several hairs' breadth on established liberties, and all agree with Napoleon, who said bis power would last but a few weeks. If he permitted freedom of the press.

To criticize merely to pull to pieces what .some one else has built, or to belittle Its Importance, Is the mark of a small-minded person. Usually such an Individual considers there Is something fine and superior about this attitude of disdain. By level ing others to his own trifling stature he Imagines himself more exalted. Too frequently this is the manner of present day biographers In our lit erature. It happens to be true that,' to a certain extent, all of us In home or ofllce life arc, to the limit of our powers, the personal biographers of those whom we know. By our ac counts do those who know them less Judge thenC It Is only necessary to scan the list of one's acquaintances to realize which are the worthy and which the unworthy In exercising this Involuntary trust. In some, we see discrimination, coupled with kindness, make for a true estimate. In others, prejudice and dislike give as distorted a picture ns an imper perfect mirror. Since the only aspect Is one of wholly false outline, with nothing to be sold In its favor, If we ourselves are discriminating critics, we begin to suspect the ac curacy of the reflection.
