Mayor Bayt sald he will propose a whole new system of tax distribution to “replace the out-| moded property tax system.” “Taxes on propérty to run the City government have reached the limit which is near confiscation,” he said. ‘We've got to widen the tax base for more equiable distribution of the tax burden. + Too Much Outgo He pointed out the State government collected $26 million from Indianapolis and the City got only $6 million of it back for local government expenses,

‘Forgive Us’

Scripture: “And forgive us our debts, as we forgive our debtors.” Matt, 6:12. \

“RORGIVE US...” How empty and unreal that phase sounds on our lips.

Our world is not in the

mood to forgive, And what is far worse, it has little sense of the need of forgiveness, In summing up the results of the MacArthur hearing, the newsmagazine Time closed Its account of Dean Acheson's testimony with the remark, “He admitted no mistakes.” Mr. Acheson is not alone in admitting no mistakes. In more able and polished manner than most of us possess, he drew the mantle of self-righteousness around himself and his position so carefully, that even his opponents admired his skill. Gen. MacArthur had done the same. Where men admit no mistakes, there can be no asking or granting of forgiveness. »

~ ~ HILDA KOONTZ has given us another picture of our day. She speaks of those to whom religion is “passe,” “an institu. tion utterly unnecessary in the ‘life of one who is earning a good lving, providing a good house for his family, has enough money to satisfy his everyday needs and a little extra for luxuries which have become necessities. Our oomforts have lulled us into a false sense of security.” To that conclusion I would add that our success in providing physical and material comforts has obscured our spiritual povtian praying, “Lord, be merciful to me a sinner.”

And if we miss our own mark, how much more the “mark of the high calling of God in Christ Jesus?”

Rev. F. W. Weismann

There is only one way out of |

our sin and failure. It is the two-way street of forgiveness— our going to God in repentance

glory of God” is the erty. Only those aware of their

very

spiritual want can pray, “for-

give us.” In the midst of a world that admits making no mistakes, stands this trenchant phrase of the Lord's Prayer, “forgive us.” In a pharisaical world, where each thanks God that he is not as other men, stands the Chris-

promise on which religion--—and true progress are built. Man's failure is spelled out with three words in the New Testament. One means debts, a second trespass, and the third missing the mark. Surely there-is none s0 callous that he will say he has paid all his debts—the debt he owes to

us both. Then we know why Jesus taught us to pray, “forgive . .. as we forgive." It is not enough to shrug our shoulders and say, “to err is human, to forgive divine.” The divine in us must rise up to seek and grant forgiveness that we “may be “sons of our Father who is in heaven.”
