Denies Approving Testimony Release A. 4 \ •<] Senate Committee ’d Policy Unchanged WASHINGTON <UPi—The Senate Internal Security Subcommittee said Friday it has not agreed —nor been asked—to let the State Department censor testimony about foreign officials since the suicide of a Canadian diplomat it accused of Communism. Robert, Morris, subcommittee counsel, told reporters “there is no change in subcommittee policy or procedure" as a result of the furor over the suicide of E. Herbert Norman. Canadian ambassador to Egypt. He added "There has been no request. from the State Department asking us to clear anything as a result” of Norman’s death and Canada’s protest against the ' subcommittee's publication of j charges against him. Neither Chairman James O. Eastland (D-Miss.> nor the subcommittee as a whole had any immediate reply to laUfct State slatdMn on he case. The deparment denied Thursday it approved release of derogatory testimony about Norman, or gave the subcommittee security information about him. The State Department took the position it approved publication of answers given the subcommittee by U.S. diplomat John K. Emmerson—which were not derogatory toward Norman—but did not approve the questions asked Emmerson. The questions included statements by Morris that the subcommittee had information Norman “is a Communist." f , ■' ■ - “■ The subcommittee was, reported to feel this was a ridiculous stand —that the department could not clear only half a conversation.

Robert F. Cartwright, the department security official involved in the clearance.* remained inaccessible to reporters Thursday.

r J ilik SPftM ScSmlUwm, W'fyWM B»»ktr«»nd Scriptarc Matthew 3#:V D.vailanal R«a<la<i laalah ■ Jt He Took the Cup if., THE dark shadows of Gethsemane have never fully lifted. If even the closest friends of Jesus did not watch with him through that hour, we cannot at this great distance hope to penetrate where no light is. Some have found it hard to believe that Jesus actually knew distress. This is to deny

Jesus’ own words, "My soul is very sorrowful. even to death,” Mark’s report that he was “greatly distressed and trou- - ¥Fe d ,‘ ’and Luke’s story of the sweat like drops of blood. It

could hardly have been fear of . death that disturbed him. Lesser men have met it without a tremor, and he himself had faced it more • than once without fear. It was something deeper that broke up the fountains of his soul that night Cup of Suffering There are gleams in the darkness. Jesus refers to his experience as a “cup.” He had been speaking of a cup not two hours before, in the upper room, the ' cup of his blood. Was it this cup he prayed might pass from him? We make a mistake when we think of this in merely physical terms. In many a hospital there are patients who have already suffered longer and more severely than Jesus could have, physically speaking, all of Good Friday. It was his soul that was troubled, not his nerves, in Gethsemane. The cup of suffering which he dreaded was more than scourging and nails. He was being rejected . . . rejected. Not a friend would stand by him. AU his work • would come to an end. He had fought for time, but time was running out He had come to his own, and his own people had not ■ received him. He was God's last Word to meri, and men had no re-" sponse but thorns and a cross. Other men have known rejection, but none’ have known it as he knew it, for not another man in history came to this earth so full , of heaven as he. Cup of Sacrifice The cup which he dreaded was also the cup of sacrifice. From earliest times, the Christian church has read the story of Gethsemane and Calvary in the light of the prophecy in Isaiah 53: "He was wounded for our transgres-, sions, he was bruised for our iniquities.” The weight of human sin lay darkly on his so\tl. It was not that in Gethsemane for the first time this had occurred to him. Long ago he had spoken of giving his life a ransom for many. The rejection of love is a sore thing to bear; but to feel the weight of the sins of the world is something of which we do not even dare to think. He had always identified himself with sinners and with sufferers; but now he was going the last mile appointed to, the suffering and the sinning. All ' the pain and all the perverseness of mankind feU upon him, a smothering cloud which in a few hours would even hide the face of God. , “Nat as I Witt” We must not accuse the Master of cowardice, not even of weakness. Horror there was indeed; but a strong man may be filled with horror without being any the less strong. Jesus did not turn to flee. Yet it is quite plain, and we must not pretend it was otherwise, that Jesus wished for some other cup than this. "Nevertheless,” he said, “not as I will but as Thou wilt.” We do not know what other occasions there may have been when Jesus knew that his own will was not as his Father’s will. Yet if there had been other occasions his prayer must have been ever the same: Not as I will! Above all other desires, above even the desire to to fulfill his own will—a desire all the stronger, the stronger the character is — was the overarching desire to do the Father's will. There were elements of Jesus’ suffering in Gethsemane which set that night off from all other nights, and that strong soul apart from all other souls. And yet even in the mystery there is something for us to learn. If the masterwish of our life is that our own will be done, we shall come to frustration in the end. But if the overmastering wish is that our Father's will be done, then whatever our first desites may be, ■ our highest prayer shall still be chorus rehearsal. Friday. 7:30 p.m.. Good Friday service.

Bearing Testimony For Christ Rev. J. R. Meadows There are many ways by which a Christian may bear testimony for his Lord. His words, of course, are of great importance, and Christ expects every follower to make this confession of the lips. There is such a thing as denying , our Saviour by our very silence.
