Who’s For Mayor? The new year, 1968, will bring with it a new city election for mayor, five councilmen, and city clerk-trea-surer. And probably quite a few interesting days for the city politicians who will be trying to get out good candidates on both Democratic and Republican tickets. In Portland, three Demorcats have already announced for mayor. That city has become progressively more Democratic in recent years, and Jay county carried more strongly Democratic in the last election than did Adams county. In the race for mayor, the Republicans will have an edge, in that they have the incumbent mayor, Donald A. Gage. It is likely that he will seek a second term. If he does,-it would be unusual for him to have opposition in the primary. In fact, it was the “empty” Republican primary of 1957, when no Republicans had filed for office, that brought out the “chicken plucker” candidacy of Harry Hirschy, at the last moment, only to learn that the “candidate” was ineligible because he was not a registered voter. The Republicans waited until some of the smoke had cleared from the Democratic primary and the sale of the light plant issue, and then proceeded to nominate Gage, who went on to win a closely contested election. On the Democratic side, the names of the “available” or self-employed city councilmen have been mentioned for mayor—Lawrence Kohne, Bernard Clark, Norbert Aumann, Carl Gerber — Councilman Clyde Drake would be an outside possibility because of his job with Central Soya. ' The name of Weldon Bumgerdner has also been mentioned. The first three months of the year will probably pretty well determine the candidates, and then the voters will be given a chance to further eliminate, and choose their own mayor.

If all the other guests at a dinner table have refused second helpings of some dish, and then you are asked, is it all right for you to accept? A. It would probably be better for you to decline. If you were the only one to accept, naturally you would be delaying the serving of the next course — and a well-bred person is always considerate of others. Q. Must the number of ushers at a wedding correspond with the number of bridesmaids? A. Not necessarily. The number of ushers depends upon the size of the church and the-number of guests invited — there often may be ushers at a wedding when there aren’s any bridesmaids at all.

THE DECATUR DAILY DEMOCRAT, DECATUH, INDIANA

Many Definitions Os Christian Faith

By LOUIS CASSELS United Press International What is faith? J Virtually every Christian writer since the time of St. Paul has offered a definition. Despite the multiplicity of words already said on the suject, it is a notable event when Dr. Karl Barth undertakes to spell out the meaning of faith. Barth’s stature among modern theologians has been likened to that of “a giant among pygmies.’’ Many regard him as one of the greatest Christian thinkers of all time. In his latest book, “Evangelical Theology: An introduction” (Holt, Rinehart & Winston, $4), Barth devotes a whole chapter to faith. First, he rejects as false or in- /, j . j r n-FIBIWMW 1 IJ* LB sfcoffrf RwFii p |SrL KF W IMFW- ■ 3 WT f B ■ PIECE WORK—These workmen, are not installing a sewer line.

Advantage of segmented rocket motors is that they can easily be scaled up or down in power.

adequate a number of concepts of faith which are widespread today, even among theologians. Faith, Not Doctrine Faith, he says, is not merely a matter of giving “assent to certain propositions and doctrines” i which one has encountered “second hand” in the Bible or in the teachings of the church. ' Such a “blind” acceptance of external authority is a “house of cards in which no one would be well advised to take occupancy.” The first strong wind of doqbt or adversity may blow it down. Nor is faith a wishful opinion, or “hypothesis” which man fbr- ; mulates when he arrives at “the boundary of what he considers to be certain human knowledge.” If faith were no more than a brave human leap into the unknown, it would be “scarcely worth mentioning.” ‘ Finally, faith is not just a “mood or attitude” which helps men to cope courageously with the vicissitudes of life. This subjective view of faith as an end in itself, Barth notes, is one of the most popular heresies of modern Protestantism. Book Describes Faith Having cleared away the underbrush, Barth proceeds to give his own view of faith. And it, is not so much a definition as a description. Faith is a relationship between man and God which rests upon and is validated by first-hand experience. It occurs when man finds | himself confronted by tJod, rjotas a proposition but as a Reality. Man responds by "dttlrming, trusting and obeying” the Reality which has laid hold upon him. “No one can take such action by his own power,” says Barth. “A man can only do this when he is overcome by God’s word and its spirit of power?’ And yet, the act of faith is always “genuinely and freely man’s own.” Man is sought before he seeks; the initiative is always with God. But the “event” of faith does not take place until man responds with affirmation, trust and obedience. The response is not made once and for all. Faith is “a history, new every morning.” Belief In God Although faith is always belief in God rather than beliefs about God, this does not mean that it is devoid of intellectual content. The living relationship of faith inevitably results in theological convictions. Indeed, Barth holds, the man of faith “will hardly be able to avoid for any length of time” the comprehensions of God’s activity in history which are expressed in the Bible and the ancient Christian creeds. Barth firmly repudiates the idea (advanced by Paul Tillich and others) that doubt is a necessary and desirable accompaniment of faith. Men may be assailed by doubt because they are human and weak, Barth says, but “there is no justification” for treating uncertainty as an inevi-

Newspaper Strike Deep In Deadlock NEW YORK (UPI) — The city’s month-old newspaper strike still was deep in deadlock today and thousands of New Yorkers were relying more and more on emergency substitutions to furnish them with information which —in normal times—is easily found in any daily paper. Both the positions of the publishers and the striking printers apparently remain as frozen as they were when the walkout began Dee. 8 and there was no indication that negotiations, recessed indefinitely two days ago, would be resumed in the immediate future. Federal mediators from Washington stayed in town for the weekend, but they said no bargaining talks have been scheduled. The last reported offer made by the New York Publishers Association was for a package of $9.20 per man per week over a two-year period. The printers, represented by Local 6 of the International Typographical Union, have demanded a S3B weekly package. In efforts to counteract the effects of the strike, two new newspapers were planning to make their first appearances on city newsstands in the next two days. Joseph P. Williams, president of a corporation which operates a credit card plan here, said Friday his firm will publish a tabloid daily newspaper for the duration of the strike. The first edition of the '•newspaper—The Standard—is scheduled to be on the newsstands Sunday. A theatrical newspaper called “First Nite,” ‘which will consist solely of theater reviews by the seven major New York newspaper drama critics, plans to make its debut Monday morning. Rev. Martin Kretzmann Is Taken By Death The Rev. Martin F. Kretzmann, 84, pastor of St. John's Lutheran church at Kendallville tor 45 years until 1954, and one of the founders of the Lutheran old people’s home in 1931, died Friday at a hospital in Chicago Heights, Hl. He was secretary of the Missouri synod of the Lutheran church tor 33 years, and for 36 years was a member of the board of directors. Funeral services will be held at 2 p.m. Monday at the Kendallville church. Friends may call at the Hite funeral home in Kendallville after 1 p.m. Sunday. table aspect of human relationships with God.' “Faith,” declares the giant of 20th century theology, “is bast cally a most strict and certain knowledge. “Compared with it, even what is supposedly the most certain knowledge on our side of the human boundary can only be esteemed an hypothesis.” - —<■—

Final Tribute Paid Sen. Robert S. Kerr OKLAHOMA CITY, Okla. (UPI) — Oklahoma Democrats moved quickly today to pick a successor to the late Sen. Robert S. Kerr, whose death touched government circles from county courthouses in his native state to the presidency. President Kennedy joined an estimated 10,000 mourners who turned out in cold, rainy weather Friday to attend the funeral of the 66-year-old Oklahoma millionaire who died of a heart attack New Yearns Day. Shortly after the funeral, Rep. Carl Albert, D-Okla., the House majority leader, was hospitalized with chest pains. Spokesmen at Tinker Air Force Base Hospital said there was nothing to indicate his condition was serious, but tests were scheduled and he remained in the hospital overnight. He had gone to the air base to see President Kennedy off for Palm Beach, Fla., after the fu- - Mral ' —------— Kerr, the most powerful man ; in the Senate, was eulogized as a ' “great oak” which has fallen in i the sermon by Dr. Herschel Hobbs, pastor of the First Baptist "■

Church. “Who will take his place? Alas! None will take it,” Dr. Hobbs said. Gov. Howard Edmondson was expected to announce his decision on an appointmet to fill the Senate vacancy. Edmondson’s term expires Jan. 14 and a new governor, Republican Henry Bellmon, takes office. Edmondson himself appeared the most likely choice. He could resign under an arrangement with Lt. Gov. George Nigh to be appointed to fill the Kerr seat until 1984, at which time a candidate will be elected to serve out the remainder o fthe term, which expires in 1966. Weather Slowing Kennedy Building WASHINGTON (UPI) — Snow and cold weather have slowed work on President Kennedy's weeeknd retreat on Rattlesnake Mountain near Middleburg, Va., but workmen still hope to have it completed by the end of March. The Kennedys’ agent. Paul R. Fout, said the frame is up and the house is “under root.” “Werstin are hoping, they will be able to move in by the end of March,” he added. ' Stucco and fieldstone will be put on the exterior of the sevenbedroom, one-story rambler, estimated to cost 845,000.
