BRISBANE THIS WEEK Paris: Os Many Newspapers Surprise for Karl Man / Mr. Eden Was Tired Out A Big Somersault This world is really no bigger, now, than the palm of your hand;

wherever you are, news comes pouring in —a Pullman car on the Mohave desert has the "Examiner”; flying across, the Leva h d brothers hurry to the airfield at Wichita with the latest “Beacon”; and on the ocean, a newspaper appears every day; the radio feeds it; in Paris, ten

times as many newspapers as are published in New York tell you anything you choose to believe, from editorials written by men who do not know that the royal and imperial French families died and were buried after the war of 1870 to fiery-eyed moderns who think they can graft Karl Marx and Lenin on Jacques Bonhomme, the French peasant, and produce a French Utopia, with a Russian accent and a pair of high boots. They do not know Jacques Bonhomme, who bought his land in the revolution at bargain prices with ■ inflated assignats, and means to keep it, nor do they know the smallsized French bourgeois, who thinks more of one four-cent franc than - some of our governing geniuses think of a billion 59-cent dollars. The Marx-Stalin-Lenin brother- ’ hood in America, by the way. does not understand the inside feelings of the U. S. A. citizen, with his ; bungalow, radio set, ; washing machine and furniture, all “nearly paid for.” Send HIM, instead of a bill for I his last installment, the statement, “No more private property,” and see what he says and does. You take your choice of dozens of Paris daily newspapers; the wild kind, that say anything and lose money; the tame kind, that say nothing and make money, but very little of it; the mummified kind, that still take “Madame La Marquise” seriously, and think'themselves back in the days of old Madame De Deffand and Lord Boling broke. 5 s You have, also, newspapers from all the Lilliput countries nearby— English, Italian, German—and the news is in them, only you must know how to extract it. They are queer little newspapers, and if that be provincialism, make the most of it. In London, for instance, Lord Rothermere’s newspaper tells you that Mr. Eden, British foreign secretary, has gone to “d secret destination” in the country for a week’s rest. English statesmen always go td . “a secret destination,” for reasons unknown to Mr. James Farley, who relaxes at the ringside, or President Roosevelt, who fests fishing, on a battleship, with fifty reporters on another ship, nearby. You wonder that a man as young as Eden should need a rest. Gladstone, at nearly twice his age. was talking in the Commons at four in the morning—but Gladstones are few, Tim Healys also. Rotherinere’s writer thinks Eden is all tired out after his Geneva speech, telling just why England lifted the Italian sanctions. It was he who made a speech recently, just as earnest and much louder, telling why those sanctions must NEVER be lifted. That was turning a big somersault. The English know how to do that, and you are supposed not to laugh. Eden told Baldwin what the doctor said, and Baldwin said, “By all means, my boy. hurry off to a secret destination,” and Eden hurried. In America, the businessman would say, "Doctor, there are a few things that I must settle first,” meaning, perhaps, his income tax. He Would bang on and on, and finally go to a really secret destination, in the graveyard. ? _____. Driving through Normandy, from Havre, where the ships land, would interest American farmers, especially any whose lands are “worn, out” after comparatively few years of cultivation. On lands in this part of the world, wheat has been grown for three hundred years, and today yields better, bigger crops than «MT. In Rome, as in other places on the earth’s surface, one city is piled upon another. Dig down through one and the other appears. Invasions, plagues, famines and the grinding ice have Wiped them out Those that read this today are the descendants of men such as the inhabitants of the Stone age village. And still we are worried, looking down at the enemy, poverty, that may climb up and attack us in old age: © Kias VMaima Syndicate, laa.

Cleveland convention. Around him were grouped a thousand leaders of the party, and in front of him were the throngs of his supporters and admirers who had gathered from far and near to do him honor and to witness the ceremonies. Trains, automobiles, buses and airplanes had been pouring them into Topeka for several days and the gaily decorated little city was crowded to the limit.. Everyone was happy and enthusiastic and everyone appeared confident that Landon would be the next chief executive of the country. The nominee’s speech of acceptance W’as the plain spoken, outright kind of talk his hearers expected. Asking divine guidance to make him w’orthy of the faith and confidence shown in him, he said: “This call, coming to one whose life has been that of the everyday American, is proof of the freedom of opportunity which belongs to the people under our government.” Pledging complete adherence to the party platform, the governor said he intended “to approach the issues fairly, as I see them, without ! rancor or passion. If we are to go forward permanently, it must be with a united nation —not with people torn by appeals to prejudice and divided by class feeling.” Here, briefly, is what Mr. Landon had to say on some of the more vital issues: Recovery—“ The record shows that these (New Deal) measures did not fit together Tnto any definite program of recovery. Many of them worked at cross-purposes and defeated themselves. The nation has not made the durable progress, either in reform or recovery, that we had the right to expect . . . We must be freed from incessant governmental intimidation and hosi tility. We must be freed from excessive expenditures and crippling taxation. We must be freed from the effects of an arbitrary and uncertain monetary, policy, and from private monopolistic control.” Relief—“ Let me emphasize that while we propose to follow a policy of, economy in government expenditures, those who need relief will i get it. We will not take our economies out of the allotments to the unemployed. We will take them out of the hides of the political , exploiters.” Agriculture—“We shall establish effective soil conservation and erosion control policies in connection with a national land use and flood prevention program—and keep it all out of politics. Our farmers I are entitled to all of the home market they can supply without injustice to the consumer. Wa propose a policy that protects them in } this right . . . We propose to pay cash benefits in order to cushion our farm families against the disastrous effects of price fluctuations and to protect their standard of living.” Labor—“ The right of labor to orj ganize means to me the right of employees to join any type of union they prefer, whether it covers their plant, their craft or their industry. It means that, in the absence of a union contract, an employee has an equal right to join a union or to refuse to join a union." Constitution—“lt is not my be- . lief that the Constitution is above change. The people have the right, by the means they have prescribed, to change their form of government to fit their wishes . . . But ' change must come by and through ! i the people and not by usurpation. ’ . . . The Republican party, howM ever, does not believe that the peo- ’ pie wish to abandon the American ; form of government.” ‘ State Rights—“ There has now appeared in high places a new and 1 dangerous impulse. This is the impulse to take away and lodge in the Chief Executive, without the f people’s consent, the powers which they have kept in their state gov- ' ernments or which they have reserved in themselves. In its ulti- ' mate effect upon the welfare of the whole people, this is the most im- ■ portant question now before us. - Shall we continue to delegate more and more power to the Chief Execu- ! tive or flo we desire to preserve i the American form of governI ment?” _ FATHER COUGHLIN, the De- " troit “radio priest” who in a speech before the recent Townsend- ■ ite convention called President Roosevelt a "great betrayer and ! liar,” has realized the impropriety of his language. He has published an open letter to the President offering his "sincere apology." The priest also says: "As my President I still respect you. As a fellow citizen and as a • man I still regard you highly, but ’ as an executive, despite your ex- ' cellency’s fine intentions, I deem it f best for the welfare of our common country that you be supplanted to

Dispatches from Rome said Father Coughlin’s speech caused a "painful impression" at the Vatican, and Bishop Gallagher, the priest’s ecclesiastical superior, leaving for a visit to the Vatican, intimated he might report on the incident. P’ SEEMS at this time that nothing, can prevent the great schism in the ranks of American organized labor. John L. Lewis, head of the United Mine Workers, and his followers in the industrial union movement, are determined to go ahead with their plans for the organization of steel workers into a mass union, and now have expanded their program, proposing to unionize thus the employees of steel fabrication and processing plants. Moreover, Lewis and his associates have declared they will not appear before the executive council of the American Federation of Labor to stand trial on charges | of "fomenting insurrection,” so it appears the council can do nothing but suspend the rebels and their unions, these constituting about one third of the federation’s membership. If this is done, the final decision as to expulsion of these unions will be made by the national convention in Tampa in November. The members of the Committee for Industrial Organization, the Lewis group, assert the contemplated proceedings of the council are unwarranted by the constitution of the federation. Philip Murray, vice president of the United Mine Workes, gave out the news of the CIO drive to gath- j er in the steel fabricators and proc- , essors, who number between 300,- • 000 and 400,000 men. As there are ■ about 446,000 employees in the steel : mills, the goal of the CIO is now the organization of more than three quarters of a million steel w’orkers. Murray also disclosed that the CIO was looking into the feasibility of organizing the 40,000 workers of the aluminum industry, i Drives also have been started in the rubber, automobile, and rayon industries. CPANISH Fascists and royalists, in rebellion against the leftist government, were temporarily in control of most of the northern part

of the country and were moving on i Madrid from Burgos and Segovia, threatening to bomb the capital from the air if the government did not capitulate. In Barcelona, capital of Catalonia, fierce fighting was reported, and at the request of the Washington authori-

ties a of the American Export line was hastening there to evacuate Americans, whose lives were in danger. Catalonia had declared against the rebels. The rebels gained possession of San Sebastian, near the French border, and th< loyalists were said to be making a desperate attempt to recover, that town. This is the place where Claude G. Bowers, American ambassador, is in summer residence, and as communications were completely disrupted there was much anxiety in Washington as to Mr. Bowers* safety. Socialists, Communists and workers in large numbers were joining the loyal troops for the defense of Madrid, and also helped in crushing the rebellion in several towns, according to the claims of the government. In the south, where Gen. Francisco Franco commanded the revolutionaries, there was almost continuous fighting, and in the engagements between rebel planes and loyal warships some bombs and shells struck the Rock of Gibraltar and others fell close to a British destroyer. The latter fired warning shots and the acting govemor of Gibraltar protested to General Franco. Premier Santiago Casares Quiroga resigned in favor of Diego Martinez-Barrio, speaker of parliament but the latter held the office j only u few hours. Then Jose Giral, former minister of marine, formed a cabinet with General Pozas, who i has the support of both the poweri fill Civil Guard and Republican ele> I : ments of the army, as minister of war. THROUGH an executive order of President Roosevelt, all postmastership appointments in the future are to be subject to civil service examination. The order affects 13,730 postmasterships of the first, second and third classes as vacancies occur. Incumbents chosen for reappointment must pass a noncompetitive examination, as must employees promoted to postmaster. -In other cases the examinations will be open and competitive. Fourth class postmasters already were under civil service. - C>L. AND MRS. CHARLES A. LINDBERGH flew in a borrowed plane from London to Berlin. and were given a big reception by high Nazi officials, die press and the populace. The colonel was the guest of the air ministry at a luncheon attended by Germany’s best aviators. It was expected that Reichsfuehrer Hitler and Air Minister Goering would go from southern Germany to Berlin to meet the Lindberghs before they left the country.

’* ww *****lMPßOVED' r * UNIFORM INTERNATIONAL SUNDAY I chool Lesson By RSV. HAROLD U LUNDQUIST. Dean of th. Moody Bible IneUtute of Chleare. .. , • Wwtwa Newspaper Unto*. Lesson for August 2 PHILIP’S MISSIONARY LABORS LESSON TEXT—Acts 8-5-40. GOLDEN TEXT—Therefore they that were scattered abroad went everywhere preaching the word.—Acts 8:4. PRIMARY TOPlC—Philip Tells the Glad News. . JUNIOR TOPlC—Philip Tells the Glad News -* INTERMEDIATE AND SENIOR TOPIC —Pioneering for Jesus. YOUNG PEOPLE AND ADULT TOPIC— The Gospel Crosses the Frontier. Evangelism is the work of every follower of Christ, and primarily the work of the layman. This duty cannot be delegated to the church as an organized body or to its official servants. Philip was a layman, a deacon in the church by office, but an evan- . gelist by the gift and calling of the I Holy Spirit. His experience in leading the Ethiopian eunuch to Christ demonstrates that one who is yielded to the Spirit— I. Will Find Opportunity for Soul Winning (v. 26). Most unexpected J places will afford opportunities. < Philip was in the midst of a great | revival in Samaria when the angel . of the Lord sent him toGGazaa —a desert place. Who would he meet < here? Remember that the great world-evangelist-, Dwight L. Moody, was converted in a humble shoe store by the earnest approach of a Sunday school teacher. 11. WiU Respond Immediately to the Spirit’s Leading (w. 29,30). The Spirit said “go.” Philip “ran.” The fundamental _of fundamentals in God's children is obedience. The opportunity, the inquiring soul, the equipped personal worker, all were prepared by God for just that mo- i ment. All would have been lost had Philip failed to obey. 111. WiU Find That Men and Women Are Ready to Receive the Truth j (w. 28, 31-34). God prepares souls, and more are willing to be saved than we think. ' Whether i- was through his experiI ence at Jerusalem, his spiritual hunger before he went up, or the J reading of the Word, or all these together, the eunuch was ready. Neighbors, schoolmates, tradespeople, fellow workers—they may present God’s opportunity for us. IV. WiU Find That God Honors Men by Using Them to Win Others. He could “save a man all alone on the top of the Alps," but he doesn’t ordinarily do it. Remember it was “the sword of the Lord and of Gideon” that wrought a victory. The eunuch needed an interpreter of the truth. Philip was God’s man. V. WiU Know God’s Word (v. 35), We cannot interpret what we do not ■ know. One who is not personally acquainted with the Living Word by regeneration, and the Written Word by diligent study, is not able to help others. Could you begin (as Philip did) at Isaiah 53:7, and lead a man to Christ? If not, should you not begin to study your Bible with such an end in view? VI. WiU “Carry Through” to a Decision (w. 36, 37). A salesman may be brilliant, cultured, and persuasive, but what i counts is the signature on the dotted line at the bottom of an order, j Philip pressed for and obtained a : decision. VII. WiU Follow-up His Convert (w. 36, 37). Much so-called evangelism fails J to go beyond a mere profession—a declaration of faith. The eunuch and Philip both knew that an inward faith declares itself in an outward act—and he was baptized. VHI. WiU Recognize That the Message Is Important, Not the Messenger (v. 39). When the work was done the evangelist was carried away by the Spirit. God’s work goes on. His workman we set aside. As an advertising company has wellexpressed it, “The purpose of advertising is to impress the product upon the reader’s mind, not the medium." It is a fine testimony to the effectiveness of Philip’s ministry that al- ! though he was gone his convert J went “on his way rejoicing.” His j faith did not rest on the evangelist I nor any human fellowship—he knew I God. Let us be sure to win souls . to God and not simply to a personal aUegiance to us or to a religious , : organization. | Why not be a Philip? Any man | or woman who knows the Lord Jesus Christ as personal Savior can ,be a winner of souls. It has weU been said that aU that Philip had was “a love for souls, a knowledge i of the Word and a sensitiveness to the leading of the Lorcl. That is all we need. If every Christian were a Philip the world would be won for Christ in ten years." Among the earliest utterances of Christ was the commission. “Follow me and I will make you fishers of men” (Matt. 4:19). Feeling of Sympathy Sympathy is the first great lesson which man should learn. It will be ill for him if he proceeds no farther; if his emotions are but excited to roll back on his heart, and to be fostered in luxurious quiet. But unless he learns to feel for things in which he has no personal interest, he can achieve nothing generous or noble.—Talfourd. Const Year Blessings He is a wise man who does not grieve for the things which he has not, but rejoices for those which he has.—Epictetus. Self-reverence, self-knowledge, self-control; these three alone lead life to sovereign power.—Tennyson. Center of Selfishness Selfishness is the making a man’s self his own center, the beginning and end of aU he Owen. ■ _ . . ■
