Two Tourists Deny Agents With CIA NEW YORK <UPD—Two young U. S. tourists who were d|eporteci from Russia after being detained on spy charges for seven weeks, denied they were agents of the Central Intelligence Agency. Mark I. Kaminsky, 28. Ann Arbor, Mich., and Harvey C. Bennett, 26. Bath, Maine, categorically denied they were espionage agents, after they landed here from Europe. Drew Pearson, a syndicated columnist, had written that they worked for the CIA. “I can say definitely that I was not a CIA agent,” said Kaminsky. “This report is completely false,” said Bennett. Kaminsky was sentenced to seven years in jail in Kiev on charges of espionage, but was expelled instead of serving his sentence. Bennett was detained as a material witness before and during the trial. The two insisted they were simply tourists not doing anything "incompatible” with activities of a regular tourist. Kaminsky said he was gathering material for a book whose title was to be “The Soviets Talk About Peace and Prepare for War.” Kaminsky was met at the airport by Airielle Kuhn, 25, Grosse Pointe, Mich., and her mother. Bennett was met by his wife, Rena, 26. Both have been requested to file a report on their detention with the State Department.

Our Need of God Lesson for October 28, IMO MAN’S NEED of God is hie highest dignity. This was the conclusion of a great thinker a century ago. But he was not alone in this discovery. Down through the generations, people high and low have found out that to need God is not a sign of shiftlessness and in-

feriority, but of dignity. The down - and - outs, the failures, the crippled in mind and spirit, these need God. But also the strong, the able, the wise, the genius—these also need God. and it does

no damage to their self-respect to acknowledge this. "Reviving the Seal" Every one of the Psalms ex- [ presses some need of man for God. The 19th and 42nd Psalms are not i peculiar in this respect. But the ' 19th contains three phrases, each one referring to God’s law, and each expressing a distinct human need which God fulfills. The Christian will think: If all this comes to us in the Law, how much more in the Gospel! The law of the Lord revives the soul. How weary we grow, bow soon we faint! Where is the soul of man ? Crushed and starved, beaten down by life’s struggles and toils, half forgotten in the bitter competition of the week-days, on Saturday nights or on any night one is tempted to doubt whether one has a soul at all. If the wilted spirit withers further, it will be very near death, indeed many a soul suffers from a kind of perpetual sleeping sickness. We need God to revive the dying souL “Making Wise the Staple” “If youth knew, if age could” is a short poetic form of a proverb, “Too soon old, too late smart.** Knowledge can be absorbed by a J bright ten-year-old. “Knowledge comes, but wisdom lingers.” Wisdom is far more than knowledge, it is knowing what to do with knowledge, and how. Calculating machined have knowledge, of a sort, but no machine has wisdom. The greatest wisdom, said Socrates, is realizing how little one has. The law of God, says the Psalmist, makes wise the simple. Knowledge is something we have to work for, to attain; wisdom is a gift, the i true wisdom comes from God who j gives to all “generously and with--1 out reproaching" as St. James says. “Rejoicing the Heart** This world, said some one, is a comedy to those who think, a tragedy to those who feel. If the walls of a London street were all made transparent, wrote Charles Dickens, who loved his city, and if we could see all the tragedies hidden by brick and stone and wood, the sight would be more than heart could endure. This is a tragic world, and all the joke-making (for indeed some things and people are funny) does not change the state of the world, nor of the heart. When a soul walks in darkness, it is no help to read that the stock market is going up, that spring will follow winter, that somewhere the sun is shining. The heart bowed down knows its own sorrows and a stranger does not intermeddle with his grief. Is it a loss of dignity to need comfort? If so we are a race without dignity. On the contrary, our need of God here as always is our highest dignity. God comes to man not to increase his sorrow but to wipe all tears away. God in his law, God in his Gospel, rejoices the heart. , Warning and Reward The inspired poet of Psalm 19 sums up in two words what God does for him: Warning and Reward (verse 11). How desperately we need these both! Again man’s need of God is high dignity. The plants, the beasts, need no conscience, no warning voice. They cannot choose but do what they are destined to do. But man is free. He can and must make choices, he can make decisions which are tragically, eternally wrong. We need warning. If God did not warn us, it would be a sign he had cast us off. We need reward too. The poet does not say there is reward for the keeping of God’s law; there la reward hi the keeping; joy in sharing God’s holy wilt

James R. Meadows A man left the service at church on a recent Sunday, saying to his wife, “You were right, I do feel better. I will go regularly. I had gotten out of the habit and I had lost something precious from my life in the doing.” The radio and TV are poor substitutes for church attendance. One misses the effort put into the act, the fellowship of the kindred minds assembled, the objectification opportunity of the offering—these are some things the radio and TV cannot bring to us. They are a blessing to those who cannot go to church, but are a curse or a sinister temptation to those who could but don’t. Let everyone who is thankful
