Another reason why there is a shortage, the city fo lk s do liot rea lize the corn shortage is due to th e 'A A A reducing the acerage. Had weather conditions not have been so favorable last year; even up to the ten year average, the shortage o f food would have been more acute.

There maybe a few more country killers o f beef fo r market, but not many. Few have the facilities to k ill on the farm in 'an y number.

HE SPEAKS FROM THE HEART Captain Eddie, Rickenbacker is stating some blunt truths that 'both labor and politica l leaders have carefu lly dodged. , Captain Rickenbacker has been saying what the public has been thittking~“ Uniiy must begin by setting an example o f unity, ‘eguality Of sacrifice’ must honestly mean sacrifice by all, n ot sacrifice by the many fo r the financial 1 and political advantage o f the few .” The efforts o f Captain R icketi- backer’s critics to undermine public respect fo r his opinions are as futile as the efforts o f children to hold back the tide with their sand dams on the ocean beach. ately vest “in the United States” . I k a speech before congress Rep. Wil­ liam S. Hill, -Colorado, asserted that it is proof that the bureaucrats had concluded that “ our farm folks are not to be trusted and are held in rio regard for the' truth or respect o f their signatures tq. notes, contracts, or public instruments. "He says the bureaucrats think the farmers are selfish, unneighborly, and unwilling |.to assist one another in this hour of need.” . Under hew Selective Service rulef farm labor between the ages o f IP and 45 will be classified as 2-C to i unmarried farm workers and 3-C for married men. Men between these ages who get .deferment must re­ main at farm work and they must report to the County Draft Board. Refusal to follow the rules will change their draft status. They must be reclassified every, six months. Clark Lee, noted newspaper cor- rec-undent, who has seen more act­ ual war activity in the Pacific than any other American citizen, was interviewed' over ’ WLW and his praise of Gen. McArthur was wonder­ ful. Lee was in Manila cn the fate­ ful December night when the Japs made the first attack'. He has tasted prison life under Jap control, having been captured while on one o f his trips with the American forces. He made the important statement that the war in that vicinity would he well over had McArthur heed the man­ power, th” equipment and the sup­ plies. He is strong for lend-lease to China, something the Chinese have not had In any quantity. What Lee said as to McArthur is general com­ ment When ever ,the Pacific war zone is mentioned. The New Deal played everything to England first and is gtill doing so. Not so long ago a cargo sent to China was rerouted in the East to. England.. China pro­ tested but it did $u> good. However, Mde. Chiang Kai-shek is putting.the heat on the New Dealers in Wash­ ington fo r some action. She has taken a leasp on an expensive res­ idence nearby and will await some action. Lives o f hundreds of Ameri­ can boys were, lost because ‘McArthur did not have men or equipment to put up an aggressive front at* the right time.

IN THE UPPER ROOM LESSON TEXT—John 13:1340; GOLDEN TEXT—Jesue with unto him, I am the way, and the truth, and the life: no one cometh unto the Father, but by we.— John 14:B. Calvary and crucifixion w e re just ahead. Jesus gathered His disciples for a time of communion and in­ struction as they spent theib last evening together. On the morrow would come betrayal, but now-they and their Lord were together in the upper rooni. Blit even here strife*and dissen­ sion had apparently come in. There was probably some difference of opinion as io who should have the place of honor.* To teach them the .virtue of humility Jesus gave them an example, after which. He contin- -ued with the precious counsel anc. prayer which are found, in John 14 ■ to 17., Our lesson presents three things which our Lord gave to His disciples and to us (see John 17:20). • I. Bis Example—“ Do as I Have Done” (13:12-20). The act of Jesus in washing the disciples' feet placed Him, their Lord and Teacher, on the- level of the mpst menial servant. It was an as­ tonishing thing that He did, lower­ ing Himself below their level to serve them. His application o f the object les­ son was equally startling. “ Ye call me Teacher and Lord, and ye say well,” said He, Then as learners and servants He required of them the humility j which would make them eager to do lowly service /jp His name,. There are more than enough folk who are willing to do the nice, pleas­ ant things in the church, where they will be given recognition and praise. All too scarce are those Christiike folk who will serve in the hidden places where darkness, suffering, disease and sin make the natural man recoil in distress Or fear. II. Bis Assurance—“ If I Go Will Come Again” (14:1-3). 1 Following His resurrection.Jesus was to go to the Father. He wanted them to be prepared for. that time by making known to'them the fact .of His coming again. In that day His own shall be received unto Him­ self to abide with Him forever, The second coming of Christ is not a strange doctrine held by little groups of people who are rid­ ing a theological hobby. It is one of the most blessed truths o f Scrip­ ture. The hope of the Christian— yes, the only real hope of this dis­ ordered world—is the coming o f Christ to reign. The New Testa­ ment is full of plain and helpful teaching on this subjeef;, While we await His pqm}t)g, thep. is there any ericouragment for us as the burdens bear down and the ..way seems long? Yes, Hs says; “ Let not your heart be troubled” (v. 1). There is little question that this passage has comforted mors people than any other word in Scrip­ ture. Countless bewildered and broken souls in all lands and times have here found the steadying assurance of the one who has the power to give them rest and comfort. There is good foundation for their composure pf heart in a .troubled world. They believe fn God,' and Jp Christ, who is one with the Fathep. Here is real security—infifiitely su­ perior to aught,the world pan give. Then at the end of the road are the eternal dwelling places, \yhat they are like is sufficiently revealed in the fact that they ape in the Fa­ ther’s house. How shall We reach them? That is our 1 ist point. We have HI. Bis Guidance—"J Am the Way” (w . 4-0). To Christ's declaration that they knew the way, Thomas responded with a request for a definite state­ ment. He wanted to be sure, and Christ responded by reminding him th. i He, their Lord, is the “ way, the truth, and the life.” Surely there Could be no more complete provi­ sion for the guidance of the heavenly .
