Cite Drunk Driving As Major Menace INDIANAPOLIS, March 28. Col. Austin R. Killian, state police superintendent, yesterday declared drunken drivers are becoming a menace to safety on Hoosier highways. He revealed that arrests of in-

toxicated motorists the first two months this year has jumped 99 per cent over the number of arrests in the same period in 1945. He said last year's total drunken driver arrests was 1,208 with 1,081 convictions obtained. Janu

ary and February this year brought arrest of 277 intoxicated drivers compared with 139 for the same period in 1945. "The trouble seems to exist in lax morals and a failure of individuals to accept responsibility for unlawful acts," Col. Killian

asserted. "Enforcement agencies generally are meeting the situation to the best of their abilities." "Policemen make arrests. whn people drink too much," he said. ''But it seems that the problem

must be solved before it reaches that stage." The drunken driving problem has been mounting over a twoyear period, he declared, and seems novv to be nearing an alltime high. He said of CI persons killed in February accidents, nine were victims of drunken drivers striking drunken pedestrians. A majority of drunken driving arrests, Col. Killian said, are in rural areas. He warned .that the problem is deadly since safety figures show one in five fatal accidents involves a drunken driver.

Tis so sweet to trust in Jesus,

Just to take Iliin at His word, Just to rest upon His promise, Just to know, "Thus saith the Lord."

THE SUPREMACY OF THE BIBLE Webster defines supremacy as "the state or qualify of being supreme; highest authority; supreme power." It is along these lines that we wish to talk to you about Cod's word. We are told that the Bible leads the sales of all other books each year. Back of this there must be a reason. Since the Bible is supreme, let us turn to it to find out why. Turn with us to Mark 13:31. Here we have Jesus saying, "Heaven and earth shall pass away; but my words shall not pass away." Thus we see the permanency of the Bible. Men through the ages, have tried to destroy the Bible. It seems as if every time one was burned the ashes were the seeds of hundreds of others. Hear Peter on the enduring qualities of the word. "But the word of the Lord endureth forever." I Peter 1:25. To fight against the Bible is to fight against God. To be supreme, God's word must be the highest authority to which we can go for matters religious. The beloved Paul in writing to Timothy had this to say, "All Scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness; that the man of God may be perfect, thoroughly furnished unto all good work." II Timothy 3:16, 17. There is no need for creeds, disciplines or confessions of faith if we accept God's word as supreme. How convenient it'is to have all this in one volume and within the reach of all. How simple to have thfs supreme standard to ga by. If we hear a doctrine preached ani we cannot find it in the Bible we must cast it aside. "Prove all things; hold fast to that which is good." I Thess. 5:21. To wprshio God according to man's idea is to worship God in vain. "But in vain they do worship me, teaching for doctrines the commandments of men." Matt. 15:9. Great men have always realized the greatness and supremacy of the Bible. Thomas Jefferson said, "I always have said and alwavs will say, that the studious perusal of the sacred volume will make better citizens, better fathers, and better husbands." The Bible has led men to leave native shores and to go into the wilderness. Men have lived by it and men have died by and for it God, Himself, declared the superiority and supremacy of His word when He said, "For my thoughts are not your thoughts neither are your ways my ways, saith the Lord, for as the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways, and my thoughts than your thoughts." Isaiah 55:8, 9. We plead that you accept the Bible as supreme; that you live by it and it alone. Prove all things you practice religiously and see if you can f'nd a "thus saith the Lord" for it. If you can't, why not cling tenaciously to the Bible. If you obey this supreme Book you can truly look "from the cross to the crown." "THE CHURCHES OF CHRIST SALUTE YOU."

Twenty-five years' ago, having escaped from the Hollywood jungles at the risk of his wife, this reviewer hung up the white flag of surrender at Broadway and 42nd St., New York, and has been in voluntary captivity ever since. And since a week has passed in which several plays have ended their careers and no new ones have arrived, glance through the Who's Who and the What's What on the stage of the moment stirs a few memories. For instance: there's the case of Robert Edmond Jones. For weeks the drama sections have been noting, how, with $185,000 to spend and with a year In which to do some research, Mr. jones has achieved something of an artistic triumph in his cc-tuming and stage designing of "Lute Song." And high time it is that his genius was discovered by another generation. It seems only day before yesterday when the Washington Square Players were holding forth in an old barn down in Greenwich Village with a horseshoe over the door for good luck. And dropping into Romany Marie's, where Sadakichi Hartman among others held court, a newcomer from the West heard how Jones, with $35 to spend, had staged "Interior" and "laid a spell of suggestive visual beauty and haunting mood over the astonished house." Some years later Jones told your reporter how he frisked the bargain basement sales for curtains and cloth and of how, with his helpers, they had squatted on the floor to irake costumes and stage adornments from these 10 and 20-cent items. . Looking down the list of season's hits, a revival of Shaw's "Pygmalion" is high on the list. Now the scintillant and versatile Gertrude Lawrence is the star.

Back in 1926 it was Lynn Fontanne who was brilliantly portraying Eliza, the beautiful but dumb flower girl. At the moment La Fontanne with her hubby, Alfred Lunt, continues to wow them with "O, Mistress Mine." Or again: a new version of "He Who Gets Slapped" is due. Back in the "Twenties, Richard Bennett was becoming famous in the role of the clown, "He" and Andreyev was being discussed pro, con and otherwise by the so-called "young intelligentsia." Now it is Dennis King who will be "He" yes, the same Dennis King who was getting the Bobby Soxers of his time with "Merry Widow," "Vagabond King," and the like. Lee Simonson had done the settings, as this reporter recalls, and Simonson was a name to hang alongside of Rollo Peters and Jones. Remember when 'Teg O My Heart" was running month in and month out and Laurette Taylor was one of the Grade A1 performers of the land? Look over the playbills of today and the same Laurette is now doing one of the finest bits of acting to be seen on Broadway in "The Glass Menagerie," prize winning drama. Bert Lytell, matinee idol de luxe, who disappeared for a time in order to run Actors' Equity comes back into the big lights with "I Like It Here." And with time flying faster than one of the new jet planes, it's odd to note the name of Elmer Rice on a current piece called "Dream Girl" when only a mere 24 years ago he was making "modern theatre" histoiy with f'The Adding Machine" which, with Kapek's "R.U.R." was setting folks to talking of how man would be swallowed by the machine age or regimented into a state of robotry. And looking ovr the day's news, jus. see what's happened.

This Morning's Headlines RESTRICT COAL SHIPMENTS President Truman announced that the administration has no plans for seizing the coal mines in

the event of a work stoppage now set for Sunday midnight. Meanwhile the government moved into the soft coal crisis with a general embargo limiting all deliveries to the most essential users for the duration of the strike set for Sunday midnight. Secretary of the Interior J. A. Krug issued the control order in his capacity as solid fuels administrator. He directed all bituminous mine operators to hold their coal "on track" at the mines beginning at midnight last night, to accumulate at least one full day's production. Coal held at the mines henceforth may be shipped only in accordance with future orders issued by Krug. . A second order, effective at 12:01 A. M. Monday the strike deadlinedirects retail coal dealers and tidewater and lake dock operators to restrict their deliveries to four types of consumers: 1. Householders having less than ten days' supply on hand. 2. Gas plants having less than ten days' sifpply. s 3. Hospitals having less than ten days' supply, 4. Industrial consumers having less than five days' supply. Krug further ordered that deliveries to those four types of consumers must be limited to one ton or enough to meet the user's minimum needs for the number of days specified, whichever amount is the larger.
