Franks (Editir's Note: Mr. Franks is the President of National Labor-Management Foundation and Editor of its official publication, Partners.) The railroads have spent con siderable time and money promot ing "Safety First". Every railroad has a "Safety First" Department for research and dissemination of this educational matter. As a result, accidents have been reduced. Slogans were coined to promote "Safety First" consciousness. "Stop, Look and Listen!" and "Cross Cros sings Cautiously!" are examples. When we think of "Safety First's' H is generally in terms of accident prevention, reducing hazards of transportation and saving lives and limbs. However, this is only on. phase of "Safety First." Other an gles of safety need attention. Dangerous propoganda is being piled on the track of public opin ion for the purpose of derailing our railroads into the ditch of gov ernment ownership. The train of agitation, discrediting the present managerial ability of the railroads and the Railroad Brotherhoods, is going full speed ahead, and unless the brakes are applied immediately there is bound to be a terrible wreck.

C, column of industry, and no one realizes this more than the enemies of our Republic who, to destroy our American Way of Life, are hitting at the spinal column. During the First World War our railroads were under government and political control. Many of these politicians were honorable, but few capable. The result, railroads failed to meet the needs of that time. When the government finally real ized that it takes railroad men to operate railroads, they turned them back to private ownership,, in a condition that was disheartening. This should have been a lesson to every American. Despite the evidence, the "flan nel mouths" are trying to dupe us again, and this time their strategy knows no limit. They are using very trick to disrupt the railroad industry. They tell of the Utopia lying ahead for railroad men and the public under government own ership; of high wages and shorter hours; and low taxation that will come with government control. But they do not tell of conditions that exist today in countries where simi lar promises were made, as for in stance: The Dominion of Canada oper ates two major railroad systems, the Canadian Pacific Railway and the Canadian National Railway. The C. P. R. is privately owned and op erated, the same as our American railroads, while the C. N. R. is government owned and operated. The privately owned railroad, -with all its obligations, such as high tax es, dividends to stockholders, and all the expense that goes with oper ation of a private enterprise, has continually rendered superior ser vice to the public at a profit. The C. N. R., its competitor, with no taxes, no stockholders, has been losing many millions of dollars each BARTLETT WE DELIVER A CIRCULAR LETTER came in the other day from a stranger who is hot and bothered because he has discovered that Jews" and Negroes can belong to Christian "churches along with white Amer icans. The astonishing thing Is not that that should be true, but that any man should get ex cited over it. What a s t o n ished the Apostle Paul was not that Jews were 1 n the Christian church but that anybody else could be) We must recall that Jesus was a Jew; that all the 1 Dr. Foreman' apostles were. Jews; that the first Christian church at Jerusalem was composed exclusively of Jews. New Type THE CHURCH AT ANTIOCH, one of the great commercial cities of the Roman world, was where we Gentiles came in. The writer is indebted to his former teacher. Dr. Charles Erdman, for noting four ways in which that church in Antioch was something new. They had no Old Testament, they knew nothing of the Old Testament sacrifices, they had no interest in the Temple or in the history of Israel. Like most Gentiles, they had usually thought of the Jew as a quaint but unimportant minority group. Now that these Gentiles were in the same church with Jews, there would be plenty of room for trouble. Could a church made up of such different races become a true Brotherhood? So the old mother church at Jerusalem sent up Brother Barnabas to look around. Barnabas was not the church's most brilliant mind, but he had a heart full of faith. New Leaders GOD DOES NOT ALWAYS give the greatest successes to the "big names. Nowadays every one who knows his Bible knows Paul and Barnabas; but in Antioch both men were unknown at first, and untried. When God wants a Reforma tion he calls forth Luther, an obscure -man who never fitted any of the existing priest ly molds. When God wanted to open np Africa he called David Livingstone; when he wanted . men for the far interior of Asia he called Hudson Taylor. When he wanted light to shine down Into the alums he called William Booth. These were all peculiar men by the standards of their times; but it takes peculiar men to break away from tradition's hearth-fire and break out new roads for the Gospel. New Center FOR SOME TIME Jerusalem was the capital of the Christian world. All roads led out from there, so to speak. With the rise of the Antioch church, however, a new center took the place of the old. Jerusalem withered away. In later times Alexandria led, and then other cities. For thousand years Rome and Constantinople were the ac knowledged centers of the Chris tian world. Now we have also London New York Geneva . . . Many sneh centers have small beginnings. In America's early days the churches of 'Scotland sent over missionary offerings for the help of the struggling little church of New York. In future years, who knows? Some church In Yunnan may be sending missionaries to the feeble folk left In the war devastated ex white world. , ' New Nam - ANTIOCH is no longer a city of any Importance. Missionaries go to It, not from it But old Antioch left us something still cherished, a new name for believers: Chris tian. - That name itself ' proves something. ; . ,, ;.v .(.'jj It proves that the chorea in ' Antleoh was something more than an-aggregatten of "churchmen." It was fam ily of Christ-men and Christ women. These believers must . , have talked and lived some- -thing better than mere value . "religion." They talked .of . Christ, they loved Christ and they lived Christ, tin even , their busy neighbors took no-: i tioe. . , , , If your church had no k name, and if your neighbors were to name it, and all the neighbors knew about it were yon, by what name would they call itT year, and this burden has in turn fallen on the shoulders of the very people, who were promised Heaven on earth.
