The South And
Democratic Party
While there is an urgent motiva
tion in' the " political breasts of
many Southerners to vote against
both the Democratic and Republi
can nominees and electors, the ar
gument that will probably win the
South for the Democrats is strong
and is Wng overlooked, by some.
- In brief, that argument is this:
In the Democratic Party, the South
commands a majority of the com
mittees in both the House and Sen
ate, evo:i though the South rep-ir.-ents
only twenty per cent of
tho nation. Moreover, the South
holds the Majority Leader's post
in the Senate and the Speakership !
in the H.6use-when the Democrats
are in power. ' w
When they are not in power, the
South holds the Minority Leader's
position in the Senate, and the Mi
nority Leader's job in the House.
' The eita of the issue is simply
that, though Congress must pass
the Civil Rights ' bills to which
Southerners most object. For ex
ample, if a law is passed allowing
any citizen with a civil rights com
plaint to take his case to the Fed
eral Courts, without recourse' to
State courts first, that law will
have to be passed by Congrats.
Since the South possesses very
little power in either major party
and since those political parties
are going to elect Presidents in the
foreseeable' future, the South's only
practical, realistic application of
its power comes through Congress.
It is, beyond a doubt, through
Congress that the South ean fight
most effectively against laws which
are objectionable to its jpeople. It
is actually less important who the
nominees 'are and what the plat
forms of the parties are than what
the South's power in the Congress
Ja, Through the South's power in
the Democratic Party, and in Con
gress, the South is assured of a
hearing and the South is in a po
sition to. block many objectionable
laws, which It has done for many
years, - ,
If Southern State Democratic
parties lose affiliation with the Ra
tional Democratic Party, creating
a new party, it woTrld be a minority
party for decades and decades, and
almost certainly forever. "
Why Japan Attacked
A book which will . cause some
thinking in th United States is
being released this month. It is
entitled "The Cause of Japan," and
is written by Shigtjhori Togo.
Togo was the Foreign Minister of
Japan when the Japanese attacked
Pearl Harbor. . In his book, which
was summarized in U. '.'8. News and
World Report recently, Togo ex
plained 'why the Japanese nation
felt that the United States and
Japan had insoluble differences and
he, justifies Japan's determination
to' make a stand and fight, which
decision culminated in the attack
on Pearl Harbo on December 7th,
1941. ;);;,.:.-..;;..';'
No American would agree with
all of Togo's assertions, but most
Americans will be surprised at
some, of the revelations in Togo's
book and will be sympathetic with
some of Japan's problems even if
one could never be misled into de
preciating the general motives of
the United States.'
From' Togo's book, the main les
son to be learned seems to be that
la major power, caugh in the grip
of militarists, finally works itself
info such a position that it must
resort to war even though many
of its people desire peace. As far
as , Togo concerned, he worked stu
diously for peace, but was unable
to win out, due te the preponder
ance of influence the Japanese Gov
ernment possessed by the military.
Japan's troublethe book clearly
reveals, started when the military
initiated their attack on China, and
although the United States did not
go to war at that time, from that
point on, the United States and
Japan ' had insoluble differences.
which, sooner or later, were certain
to lead to a test of strength in the
Pacific. 'ii'-V" '."
Even at the last moment., how
ever, there were many in Japan
who did not wish to Challenge the

;- Our lesson this week brings us
to the - close of God's Word. It
is a perfect end, and the only possi
ble end if God is omnipotent, as we
believe He itf. , ' : ' , -''. '., '
The Word of God begins, in
Genesis, with a picture of beauty,
of perfection, with man, the high
est reation of God, in perfect eom
muhion with him. Sin, in the form
of a serpent, soon enters and comes
between man and Ms God. - Sin is1
committed, a curse is placed on
man, and from that hour to the
last hour of this earth's existence,
under the dominion of man, theqe
has been and will continue to be, a
conflict between good and evil:
( Only ' when man accepts . Jesus
Christ, God's Son, and th salva
tion1 from sin which he -offers,' can
man hope to re-establish the com
munion of his soul with its maker,
God. : '-:.,;'.v'-:.-..v,: .
"The ultimate hope of every
Christian is to be forever with his
Lord, Jesus Christ. John in his
vision, received a revelation of the
place where the redeemed Souls' will
spend eternity. Deep down within
the. human heart there is a firm
convjet ion that death does not end
all for the individual that there is
a future' life for that part of us
that can never die the soul.
Man has always been interested
in the question asked" by 3o so
long ago, "If a man die, shaft he
live again?" .The Christian an
swers, "Yes, he shall." We know
that the body dies, but the souf
the real self lives on after death.
Take Jesus as an example. The
New Testament tells us that he
died physically on the. cross but,
on the third day, he arose from the
grave. We believe that He is alive
today and, because he conquered
death, we believe that we, too, shall
live another life beyond the grave.
Granted that this is so, what will
our future above look like, who
shall; be there and what shall we
do? John, in the 21st and - 22nd
chapters of Revelation, gives us a
description of Heaven. It is a city,
the new Jerusalem, 'which was the
beloved city of the Jews, and- the
home not only of the king, but in
it was the Temple and, in the Tem
ple, the holy of holies. V .1
Dummelow says that "Jerusa
lem" represents the society of the
redeemed on the earthy the "new
Jerusalem" represents the' society
of the redeemed in heaven. In, this
city, there will be no temple be
cause there will be no need of a
temple God Himself Is there f '
Heaven is an inhabited place.
The redeemed of the Lord . are
there; and we have reason ' to be
lieve that they will be recognizable.
Moses and Elijah were recognized
when they met Jesus upon' - the
Mount of Transfiguration. . Unless
souls do retain their identity,' some
of the joy of Heaven would be lost
that of reunion with, loved ones
and friends, - vs.'' ,
Inside the wall which surrounds
the, city of God will be those who
have put their faith in Christ, those
who have hungered and thirsted af
ter righteousness, those who have
proved faithful. However, outside
the walls are pictured the fearful.
those who g-efused, to believe in
Christ,' those Who .'were guilty of
idolatry, the murderers, the forni
cators), .the sorcerers, the liars or
deceivers. Instead of being permit
ted to enter and enjoy the bless
ings of heaven, these will be cast
into the lake of fire1 Hell or the
scrap heap of the universe. ;
If there is anv doubt in - von?
mind that you will not be able, of
entitled to enjoy the blessings ei
Heaven, there is "the glorious invi
tation, as given In our Memory Se
lection: "The Fpirit and the bride
say, Come. And let -him that hear
eth say. Come. And let that is
athirst come. And whosoever will
let him take of the water of, life
freely." ' Whcsor yer wUlno one
is excluded r.o one Vho wants to
get in is shut out Just as you are
if you have twt already accepted
Him, won't y-' eotse in repentance
in faith, t 1 ' i MS aceert i i,

TABERNACLE S I
. The author of the 84th Pslm was. I
i , ' r i.l L - V ! . -. ! . . e
'God. The temples, shrines and holy places
of Israel were his chief delight. Hi found
thsm friendly, inviting and comforting to
his souL ' ' . '. ' . " :l .
In one of his moments of spiritual ec
stasy he broke forth in song: "How ami
cable .are thy tabernacles, O Lord, of '
. hosts I" he sang. "My soul longsthi even
faintth for the courts of the Lord." '
There are millions today who look upon '
, Cod's earthly nousesg-the churches pf the
land in much the same way. They are
. glad when the church hour ,coms and
"' they can mingle with others ia worship
' and spiritual fellowship, r . . v ;,
, The church around the corner or over
in the next block is not a cold and formal
place, once you come to 'know it." It
. breathes friendliness and sympathy. It
comforts and inspires and points the way .
to a kind and loving God. ' ,
. Come to Chorch on Sunday and enjoy -
the fellowship of God's people.
