"GHASTLY MARK-UPS"
Claudius T. Murchison, Presi
dent of the Cotton Textile Insti
tute, recently told a House com
mittee that he saw a plain gabar
dine dress, in a New York store
window, marked at $98.95. He esti
mated the actual cost ot the fab
ric at "not more than three dol
lars" and said that the same dress
could not have cost more than
$30 before the war.
He complained of the "ghastly
mark-ups on such tilings as men's
shirts and women's dresses.'' He
knew what he was talking about.
He reported that a plain shirt,
with a value of less than 5.50,
was marked at $12.95
The statement led Hep. Kams
peck of Ga., to declare that there
is vast prolileenng in the manu
facturing and merchandizing of.
many items ot clothing. We are
inclined to think that Uic Georgia
representative has somtUung.
Let's see what Congress, or any
body will do about it.
LOSSES LESS
THAN EXPECTED
The invasion of Japan, for
which thousands were in training
in the Pacific, was scheduled for
November but, because of the Jap
surrender, the newspapers have
not been filled with dispatches of
losses as our men assaulted the
beach defenses of the Japanese
Islands.
No man can say what would
have occurred. The probability is

that the job, like the landing in
Normandy, would have proved
less costly than forecast but there
is no doubt that thousands of lives
were saved by the end of the war
without an actual invasion against
hostile forces.
In fact, when one goes back to
the darker days of the two wars
in which we were engaged the
conclusion is that the nation has
been pretty lucky. Its losses, in
life and money, were much less
than once appeared probable.
A TASK THAT
REQUIRES MEN
Reccommending a joint declar
ation by the United States and
Great Britain that they will stay
in Germany as long as necessary,
Dr. Vera M. Dean, research direc
tor of the Foreign Policy Associa
tion, says that unless this is done
"Europe cannot settle down be
cause every country is afraid she
may rise again."
We presume that the doctor
knows what she is talking about,
but it is difficult to see how a
formal declaration will have any
effect unless this country is will
ing to maintain sufficient forces
to carry out the reorganization of
enemy countries.
' As long us every Congressman
is inclined to get every man out
of service in his district, the arm
ed forces will have difficulty in
maintaining the strength neces
sary to implement the pence pol
icies of this country.

ER IN THE COMMUNITY
LESSON TEXT: John 17:20-13; Acts
15:2229
GOLDEN TEXT: We are laborers to
gether with God I Corinthians 3:8
Unity within the Church Is God's
plan and purpose, but that does not
mean that some man-made plan
for unity are either scriptural or -d
sirable. There Is much pressure fca
ing exerted now to unite the Church
c-i the basis of a vast ecclesiastical
organization, quite apart from any
doctrinal or spiritual unity.
Such unity was not in our Lord's
mind. He wants spiritual unity, and
in such fellowship the Church will
find its only real bond of united Ufe
and action.
I. Unity In Spirit (John 17:20-23).
Here we enter the veritable holy
of holies of Scripture. Facing the
time of His departure and death, the
Lord prayed for those who believed,
or would believe (v. 20) on Him.
What was His prayer? That they
should be one with the Father, with
Him, and with one another. Thii
had to be accomplished while they
remained in this wicked world (see
John 17:13-16). How? By the
cleansing and sanctifying work of
the truth.
The Word of God the Bible is
the instrument used by the Holy
Spirit in this work of sanctiflcation.
Small wonder that there is little
holiness ana spiritual unity when the
Word has so little opportunity to
touch and to cleanse. Reader, do you
study God's Word?
Such separation to God will result
in real spiritual unity between those
of all denominations and creeds. It
is not some artificial thing to be put
on from the outside. It comes from
the heart of man and reaches out
into his life and into the lives of oth
ers. II. Unity in Action (Acts 15:22-27).
Satan tried to thwart the mission
ary efforts of the Church at the very
outset by starting a doctrinal con
troversy. Although the first council at Jeru
salem (Acts 11) had decided that "to
the Gentiles also hath God granted
repentance unto life," the question
did not stay settled, for there were
persistent Judaizing teachers who
now contended that even though the
Gentiles cnuld be saved, they had
to come into the church Vy way of
Judaism and first fulfill the Jewish
rite of circumcision.
The story of how this vital and fun
damental question came up is found
in the early verses of Acts 15. The
entire future of the gospel ministry
was in a sense dependent on the so
lution of this problem. Christianity
is the only religious faith in the
world that presents Justification by
grace as the way of redemption; all
others follow (more or less) the path
of salvation by works.
The question now was: Shall
works of the law be mingled with
grace? Can Jesus Christ alone save
men, or is salvation through Jesus
Christ plus something elseT
How was such a serious question
to be settled? Should argument and
strife be permitted to go on until
the stronger party prevailed? Bet
ter judgment indicated the desira
bility of a Christian method of set
tlement. The final decision of the council is
sent not only by Paul and Barnabas,
but also by a committee from Jeru
salem, a gracious gesture of fellow
ship. As a matter of record (a wise pro
cedure in such a case), a letter was
sent which, after addressing the
Gentiles as "brethren." reviewed
the history of the matter and then,
without mentioning circumcision at
all, put upon the Gentiles "no great
er burden than the necessary
things." And what were thoseT
Those things which relate to purity
of life as those who were enjoying
Christian liberty. The law of Moses
need not be kept as a ground of sal
vation. They were saved by grace.
But
t grace can never be the cioan
careless living, nor can liberty
of
in
Christ be Interpreted as license
to live in sin. We are set tree in
Christ, not that we n-v sin, but thai
e may "go and siu uo more."
IH. Unity In Doctrine (Acts 15:
28, 29).
In non-essentials we should exer
cise toward other believers the
greatest love and consideration. Men
have a right to differences of opin
ion, and must follow the dictates of
their own consciences.! Let us not be
betrayed into controversy on such
matters,.
There art certain foundation doc
trines which must be held 11 a
church is to be Christian; concern
ing these we stand together. There
is a faith tor which we are to ear
nestly "contend" (Jude 3). We are,
never, even on the grounds of sup
posed courtesy, to giva aid and com
fort to falsa teachers (II John 9-11).
Kindly, tactfully, but definitely the
Christian Church must stand true to
Its doctrinal convictions, standing
united against an unbelieving world,
and if need be, an unbelieving re
ligious world. "' :

Polio Is Everyman's
Enemy, Bing Dedares
The war against infantile paralysis is a war in which all
peoples of all nations have a common foe, Bing Crosby, screen
and radio star and national chairman of the Sister Elizabeth
Kenny Foundation national 1945 appeal, said today in an
appeal for contributions.
"Wars among nations always end but the fight against dis
ease is an unending battle In wnich
all mankind has a common inter
est," said Cros
by, who is direct
ing the campaign
to raise $5,000,000
to expand the
work ot Sister
Elizabeth Kenny,
Australian nurse
famous for her
discovery of a
revolutionary
treatment for in
fantile paralysis.
'The war
against infantile
paralysis, the
crippling disease,
is a war in which
all peoples of all nations are fight
ing together against a common foe,"
Crosby said.
Strikes Everywhere
"Infantile paralysis has no partic
ular battlefront; it has no particu
lar foe. It attacks the White, the
Negro or the Yellow man; Protes
tant, Catholic or Jew; the strong as
well as the weak. It strikes without
warning. It may strike in one sec
tion of our nation today and another
tomorrow. It may strike simultane
ously in many parts of the nation, in
many parts of the world.
"Tomorrow it may hit your com
munity, your family or yourself.
"The Sister Elizabeth Kenny
Foundation 1945 appeal is being con
ducted so we can wage an all out
war against infantile paralysis and
just as wars among nations cost
money so do wars upon disease. If
we are to win the battle against in
fantile paralysis there must be
money for research, there must be
funds for the treatment of those who
fall victim to its ravages."

Establish Local CUnle
Crosby emphasized that one-halt
of the. funds raised in each of the
48 states where the drive is being
conducted will remain, in the state
to carry on local campaigns against
the disease, to finance training ot
Kenny technicians for clinics
throughout the country and ' to
finance treatment ot the stricken.
Funds also will be used, Crosby
sai.l, to:
Enlarge the Elizabeth Kenny In
stitute in Minneapolis, Minnesota
Carry on extensive research as
to the causes of the disease.
Provide periodical study courses
for physicians snd technicians.
Perpetuate and extend the scop
and benefits of the Kenny Institute
not oaly, in the-United. States bui
throughout the world.
Lessen ravages of the crippling
disease.
Work of Altruism
"EllzatietJt Kenny's work has been
a worlso' altruism,"' Crosbysaid.
"She aceepts.no fees or salary from
her work. Her only reward is the
realization that she has brought
happiness back-' Into the-' lives of
countless persons.
"I realise, that the people of Amtr
ica have been called upon to contrib
ute to many worthwhile ventures
during the trying years of the war.
We have won that war through the
generosity and the unselfishness of
the people of America but -another
war that rages continually remains
to be won. The people of America
can help win that war too the war
against infantile paralysis by con
tributing as generously as their
purse permits to the Sister Eliza
beth Kenny Foundation campaign
fund drive."
