Tha gjboral atremWy will be held in the voting pc: p’.'.-s-' d* pavtment according to an uenounrem mt b; Dr. Zeno V HMHB Mark Anniversary Of Luther’s Bible (Continued Prom Page One) from the Hebrew. The first edition of the New Testament consisted of 3,000 copies and sold for about the equivalent of $10. The whole Bible sold for $300. The price came down to as low as $5 even in Luther's day. It is said that the printers and ; merchants who handled Bibles be came rich. But Luther himself nev er accepted a penny for his work of ■ translation. He regarded the gift of ; translation as a gift from God and | refused to sell it for money. While the Bible as a whole or in part j numbered 375 editions in his life | time, he remained a poor man. his 1 great desire being that God’s Word j should be “in the hearts of the peo pie.” Luther's translation was follow ed by that of William Tyndale in ; England, who translated the New | Testament, but because of opposi j tion was put to death before he had I completed the whole Bible. His work was carried on by MUes Cov erdale who completed his transla tion in 1535. After many revisions, the King James’ version appeared in 1611. This became our authorized version. The English revised version appeared in 1881. the American re vised version in 1901. Scholars throughout the world are agreed that directly or indirectly these translators and revision commit tees are greatly indebted to Luth er's monumental achievement of four hundred years ago. The work of translation has been going on apace until today the whole Bible la published in 175 lan guages; the New Testament, in 367; and parts of the Bible, ip a grand total of 940 languages and dialects. It is estimated that no less than 882 million copies of the Bible, New Testament and portions, have been printed to date.

In his ad dress that from a purely local stand point Cleveland county should be opposed to any diversion of high way funds since a great deal of work is needed on the roads in this county and that to take this money from the highway fund and put it in the general fund would lessen the chances of this needed new construe tion or resurfacing being done. "And. in any event,” he said, “since the motorists of North Car olina are paying fifty-two and one half per cent of the total state revenue from all tax sources, If the highway is not to be allowed the amount of money that highway fund brings in, then the motorists should receive the difference through a reduced gasoline tax."
