It is virtually impossible to make much progress in this direction un less one is willing to establish, de liberately and intelligently, a set of values for existence. BarucVsFatWPlan Bernard Baruch, one of the na tion's wilder statesmen, now living in New York; has proposed a five point rm "program to Chairman Allen Ellendef,' of the Sftnate' Agri culture! Committee. s Barcnoted that the farm sit uatfon If not yet one of real de pression, but he says he believes the threatof such an economic sit uation 's inherent in the present situation. It is interesting, there fore, td look at Mr. Baruch's sug gestions: : 1. He recommended that some of i the existing surplus in agriculture commodities be distributed by this Oovernment in the form of relief. He would also use some of the sur pluses to build up the Govenment's stockpile against emergencies. 2. Mr. Baruch would take many acres of marginal land out of pro duction,! and plant them in trees, which trees would provide a source of wealth for the nation in the fu ture. 3. Mr. Baruch would place pari ty support on a flexible basis (where it is now) to discourage ex cess production. He would' have the Government work toward final ly achieving full parity using these flexible supports. 4. Mr. Baruch would attempt to expand the Markets for America's agricultural commodities. These steps', Mr, BltruCh thinks, would -'solve the farnr problem. They -are quite different from the solution proposed by Senator Kerr Scott, Democrat of North Carolina, who wants to set up a price sup port system somewhat on the order of income taxes. He would allow farmers one hundred per cent pari ty price support for so many acres, ninety.iv per cent for an addi tional iufWiber of acres, ninety per cent for an additional number of acres, and so on. . Secretary of Agriculture Ezra Benson,' has proposed a soil bank, which would mean that' the Gov eramehtXwould pay farmers for taking land out of production. The Democrats are proposing ninety-per cent parity for the basic crops, again, which was the law for mahy years. It seems obvious, then, that ev eryone recognizes there is a farm problem, and a serious one.

Memory Selection: "He 'that is nbt With me is against me; and he that gathereth not . with; mw scat tered." Luke 11:23-. t i Lesson Text: Luke 11 :29-14 It is interesting to realize, we think, that approximately one-half of the lessons for this .year will be 'taken from the Gospel of Luke and the Book of Acts both written by Luke. The only 'writer of he New Testament who was not &' Jew,' liUKe, a iienijie, wrote more 01 tne ( New Testament than any other, one man. . ; ' ,; '. "Luke was not only a doctor and a historian; but he was one 'of the world's greatest men" of letters. He wrote the clearest and the best Greek written in that century," de clared the late Professor, John A. Scott, one of the most distinguish ed Greek scholars in America. Dr. James T. Shotwell, probably the outstanding authority on historical literature ' in America, for '. thirty years Professor of History at Co lumbia University, pays this tri bute to Luke in his standard work, "The History of History": "Luke, as the Acts of the Apostles shows, was an educated man, who compiled his history but of various sources, was accurate in geography and painstaking, and his work stands easily alongsgide the best pagan histories of his time." Our lesson for this week shows us Jesus in the midth of his teach ing ministry. The passage given for our consideration is one which is rarely considered and on the1 surface not in its inner meaning ; would seem to be somewhat irrele vant to people living today. There fore, it may be well for us to re call that it is Jesus who is speak ing the wtfirdB we are studying. ;. The multitude,?although some of 'them had Tbeeii following Jesus for .now almost thuee years and the rest had heard 'M and often seen the miracles performed by him, they were still 'insisting that he .give them a sign 'from Heaven to prove that he wis the Son of God, the long5 promised" Jlessiah who was to come. ' Jesus declared to them that no further sign would be giv en1 them', other than the sign of Jonah, for as Jonah was a sign un to the Nineyites, so also shall the Son of man be (a sign) to this generation.' Jesus' reference here to Jonah, while our text does not so indicate, is parallel to that in Matthew's Gospel (Matt. ;12: 39 41), in which he was referring to his resurrection, which was soon to occur. Dr. Geldenhuys, in his commen tary on Luke's Gospel, says, "Jon ah was a sign to the Nihevites, be cause he appeared there as one sent by God after having been miracu lously saved from the great fish (as it were raised from the dead) as proof that he' was really sent by God. So also , Jesus will, by his resurrection, prove conclusively that He has been sent by God as the- Christ, the promised: iRedeem er." '-; ' ' Jesus even call? the attention of the people to the great faith of the Queen of Sheba (the Queen of the South), who, from the ends of the earth, spared no' trouble or expense, to come to' hear the wisdom of Sol oman. He declare that a greater man than Solomon was now in their : midst, and they refuse to hear and believe him. Even the Ninevites would cohdemn these people, for they heard the preaching of Jonah, 'were convicted of their sins and repented, but they, even though one greater than Jonah was in their midst, would not hear him, but hardened their hearts in unbelief. Having answered his critics, Je sus turned to a new truth, trying to win them foffl their false views. 1 Jesus' words remind us of portions of the Sermoil on the Modnl), as' re corded in Matt. 5:15; 6:2-23. i In these passages, Jesus is (trying to .impress upon' his hearerp the ne cessity, for sincerity of j lffe , and purpose Jesus realized! that the ' people had been led to believe that, thrbugh formal worshipj Ijiey ctiuld absolve themselves of sin.; This Jed to hypocrisy one of the things which Jesus denounced with terri ble severity. : Does Jesus' reference to the eye "intrigue you? , Have you' realized ' what an important part the eye plays in one's life, other than the fact of sight?
