This year General Motors has another exhibit at New York's World fair. Giving another prophecy banquet, Board Chairman Alfred P. Sloan Jr. culled statements from big U.

"But, says one, "he is the worst of all wild animals." Another puts forth man's inconsistencies as follows: "Men pretend to beli- ve in God and sacrifice their lives to Mammon; they love liberty and persecute the champions of freedom; they honor Christ and are obedient to Dictators. They bow down to virtue as holy yet they stain the earth with prostitution and syphilis. They defend marriage as the basis of civilisation and practise on the sly all manner of freedoms and licences. They praise truth and allow the cheats and swindlers to occupy the seats of the mighty. They make a religion of education and a mockery of enlightment. They pretend to love the highbrow and in their secret hearts most enjoy the lowbrow. They shoutfor Brotherhood, and shoot or imprison or ;ast out those who wHI not join their drunken debauch of patriotism, nationalism and war. Their ideals are fictions." 3 - ed Claims are made, and they are founded on truth, that to scriptural prophecy the dictators will be victorious up to a point where it will aeem they are winning the world. At that stage Providence will pour out, through a mighty miracle, a force that will destroy their gains, thwart their poer and literally put them out of existence. Esekiel and Daniel saw it all.

The meaning of the little flag that the editor wears in his coat lapel is this: It was worn bv an American soldier in France arid our love for the Doughboy, and the cause and the country he represented is so unbounded that we make a feeble attempt to show it through this sign of liberty's sacred e nblem. The noble structure that was built around the flag and the Constitution was to be a New Order of the Ages, and that Order should not be marred or sullied by transplanting to this soil any of the prevailing European systems. We are unqualifiedly for the Bill ofRights in its entirety and believe that it is the only guarantee the people have for life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness, without which life wouldnt be worth living. 1, I 1 Why We Wear It. self-parki- -- re What is Beyond the Pick? - Broadly speaking, proposed revisions in the Wagner labor act would cut the national labor relations board's power and give Judicial color to decisions involving employer-employe- e dispute!.

The Dutch government loans up to 100 per cent of the cost and the family ia given fifty years to repay the loan. Our houses are not Jerry built. They will last way beyond fifty years because they are built for use of the people who live in them and not to make a profit for speculative owners."
