HOUSE LEADER (Continued from Page One) taxes and hiking gross income taxes. A referendum bill of another sort—on pari-mutuel betting—also was scheduled for introduction today by Rep. John Kirkpatrick, DFortville. The bill is all that is left of an elaborate program announced with a flourish last fall by the “Committee of One Hundred” which claimed to have wide] support for a measure to make this type of betting legal in Indiana.

President Pro Tern D. Russell Bontrager, R-Elkhart, who also is chairman of the reapportionment committee, said the group would not be able to make a report

sooner than Tuesday. However, he said the lengthy discussion reached several tentative conclusions: —Hie House-passed GOP plan would be amended to incorporate many of the provisions of a Dem-ocratic-backed plan, both of which call for reapportionment by constitutional amendment. Bontrager conceded “what ultimately comes out will more nearly resemble” the Democratic resolution than the Republican one. —ln addition to going back to the requirement the Senate not exceed 50 and the House not exceed 100, the committee agreed to adopt the Democratic formula which calls for each county to be allocated one-fifth of a senator as a consideration of geography. This would add up to 18 and twofifths senators. The remaining 31 and three-fifths senators would be determined by population. —The House would be apportioned soley on the basis of population. —The decennial federal census would.be the basis for the population figures.
■ —Once the constitutional amendi ment were passed by the Senate, ■ the Republicans would join with the Democrats in enacting a bill calling for immediate reapportionment, using the same formula contained in the constitutional amendment. —A provision calling for election at large in the event the legislature failed to reapportion itself almost surely will be removed from the present resolution. Bontrager pointed out, however, “at least the conference committee will have more time to work this session than it did two years ago. This time, we are only about half-way through the session.” Rural Churches MOUNT PLEASANT METHODIST (2 miles west of Decatur) Donald Orr, Minister 9:15 a.m. — Sunday School.

T~)OUBTLESS God could have made a universe where Ho did not need help of any kind. Whatever He wanted to do, would be done, and by Him alone. Perhaps, for anything we know to the contrary. He has exactly that kind of universe running somewhere IF vM at this moment. ■ But not thio one. :YBOi For 1118 Own rea ‘ bom, “d for our t great good, God JMggJwM constructed this universe in such away that if God does not get help Dr. Foreman in doing things, they will not be done. Not that God requires help in everything. If He had any help in creating this universe in the first place, we cannot imagine who could have been His assistant or His blueprint man. God had all the blueprints of the universe in His mind from before the beginning. But—once begun, while God still reserves the right to act at His own discretion without help of any one, the universe—or our part of it at least—does not run itself. Helplag the igeereet Let it be repeated: this is for our good. It is a wonderful privilege to share in anything God does. It is a marvelous act on His part that He should let any one of us be responsible even for a tiny part of the vast realms of God. But how can we know what God’s work is? How do we know when we are helping Him? There is one thing of which we may be sure: God is always working against evil. He is opposed to evil in every form. So when the Son of God lived and toiled in Galilee, He too was battling against evil wherever He found it. One of the forms of evil is ignorance, error. Not knowing, or thinking that one’s thoughts are true when they are not,—this is dangerous. So one of the great activities of Jesus was teaching, and ho did not try to teach all alone. He trusted certain fishermen enough to send them out two by two, to teach people He would never live long enough to see. And in helping Jesus, the disciples were helping God. Helplag the heegry Another form of evil is pain, and this has many forms, as we all know. When first chloroform was used to help women in childbirth, many preachers protested. It was not right, they said, to try to make child-bearing bearable. But ministers know better now. All of ua are aware that much pain in the world cannot be cured. We know there are limits to what can be done. But when a Christian today sees a hungry child or a suffering man or woman, he dare not say to himself, as our ancestors might have said, "Too bad, but the pain and hunger are sent by God and we need not try to do anything to stop it.” On the contrary, Christians are more alert now than they used to be, to the claims of the suffering and the hungry and homeless. Every person you can help, in fact, is a living invitation from God, to be Efis helper in bringing good to pass in the place of evil Thle Is a real world
Sometimes we long for an easier world to live in. What we want, we think, is a sort of fairy-tale world. In the old stories, which perhaps you read when you were young, you remember there often was a Fairy Godmother. When she arrived, she took over. All you did was sit back, watch her wave her magic wand, and enjoy what she conjured up out of the moonlight and spider webs. Why doesn’t God do like that? is our complaint. He doesn’t do like that because He is real and not a make-believe fairy. He doesn’t do ..like that because He wants children, not dolls; sons and daughters, not robots. He doesn’t do like that because He wanted a universe in which He would have helpers. On the hills of Galilee Jesus fed the great multitude with bread. No one then knew how He did it; but they knew how that bread got from Jesus to the hungry crowds; the disciples carried it. Jesus did whgt they could not do; He did not do what they could do. God is like that. All over the world the battle goes on, good against evil, comfort against pain, health against disease, truth against falsehood, wisdom against folly. It’s God’s fight; are you in it?

Meadows Christ left to us, His followers, the task of speaking for Him in community, state, nation, and across the seas. In addition to His last command, the very power of the message concerning His life, placed upon us an obligation to give this Gospel to every person. Christ was under very definite compulsion. Have, we, as His followers, any right to feel that we can be free from responsbility? Christ said, “As Thou hast sent Me into the world, even so have I sent them into the world.” In Christ we have that which will satisfy the need of the world. The message commands, the need calls.

command and turn a deaf ear to the need, is very close to, if not an actual denial of, the love and power of Christ in his own life. The Gospel does transform life. The very success of our work commands that it be carried forward diligently. The urgent cry of unmet needs calls us to share that which God’s grace has placed in our hands. Manifest your love for the Master by witnesing for Him at every opportunity. Let us bear much fruit for the Lord Jesus Christ during 1963, for the need is great when we see evil gaining ground daily throughout the world.
