Davatiraal KeaZlaft Psalm 110:5764. • . ; In Capitols - Lesson for September 1,1957 OEOPLE in capitols have tre-1 “ mendous power. A President, a ; senator, a parliament, a cabinet member . . . whether it is the county court house or the worldrennwned capitol building of a mighty nation, the people who work under the dome, just because they work there, have a leverage for moving pub- ! lie opinion, for ■ ggjjpb» r getting things w| done on an im- . W men'e scale, a BBte T power far great- 'j | er than any one •; «•••'.' Jfl of them has by i himself. The man ■ there in his of- O flee, or in his seat in the legis- Dr. Foreman lative chamber, may be, and usually is, a man of parts, a man above the average in personality and ability. But however able the man under the dome maybe personally, his office gives him even greater power. The voice of the man who was elected carries more weight than the voice of the , man he defeated. Npvember Is Coming The ancient Hebrews were a democratic people in some ways, but in others they were most unlike us. At the time of King Josiah the kingship was by no means an elective office. “And his son reigned in his stead” is the regular formula. So the Hebrews had at that time nothing to say about: who should be their kings. They, took whatever son the royal harem produced first. For good ones (there were some) they thanked God, and for the bad ones they were thankful they were no worse. King Josiah, whose story may be read in the Background Scripture, was one of the outstanding good kings. But it was custom and tradition that made him king, not the people. With us it is different. The people have to decide who shall occupy our places of great power. November is com-; mg; many will be elected, many more defeated, In our American elections. It is not too soon to ask ourselves seriously, what kind of men do we want under our capitol dome? Sometimes the choice offered us makes us discouraged so that we stay at home and don’t vote. But even if all we have is a choice between two third-raters, a good third-rater is better than a poor one. If we have good men in our capitols, it is our responsibility to see that they get there. Little Capitols

It’s a peculiar thing, but often true, that although candidates for local offices can be better known than those for state or national office, rascals and ne’er-do-wells are more often elected to the small offices than to the large ones. For some reasons, local government gets less attention from the voters than it should. The mayor of a single large city, today controls more power over more people than King Josiah ever did. It is in the “little capitol” if you like, the county court houses for example, that public affairs sometimes take the wrong turn. Where there is a public program well conceived and organized, It can look good as a public law, it can look good as it comes to the states . . . but when it goes through the local courthouses it can turn into some pretty rotten trickery. In a certain state not long ago federal funds for a very good purpose had to be cut off from a dozen or more countries because the officials there had been lining their pockets with easy money. It’s a poor voter, one with a small sense of responsibility, who takes pains to elect good senators and presidents, but who when it comes to voting the local ticket, just says, Oh well . . . and votes straight because it’s easiest Capitols Can’t Da It All -- The sad truth is, King Josiah’s reforms didn’t stick. They didn’t because ' they were reforms from the top. Even an absolute monarch can make his country no better than his people want it to be. It is true, we ought.to have the best officials, from town to county to state to nation, that we can elect; but even if they were all praying, intelligent, devoted Christians, they cannot make this a better country merely by passing laws. Like Josiah, our men in government can make this a better country. Only if we the people want to hive it so. No Evening service due to the Sunday Night at the Fair program. THURSDAY, September 5.
