Yet often we find the most avaricious persons posing as the pillars of Christian churches. Why ia such inconsistency tolerated? Has Christian religion been allowed to degenerate into a fulsome racket?

I fear not Titan traitors that ahall rise To stride like broken shadows on our skies; 1 fear the vermin that shall undermine Senate and school and citadel and ahrine; The worm of fraud, the fatted worm of ease And all the crawling progeny of these. I fear the vermin that shall honeycomb the towers And walls of state in unsuspecting hours. Thanks. Technocracy SO WE OFTEN HAVE SAID This is the best thing ever said by Boake Carter, Column-nis- t. He said it on May 5, 1941: "The people of Britain and America cannot continue being falsely moral in our national conduct to justify or cloak our material indulgences and imperialism, without a Divine power ordering for ua a day of reckoning. I am equally convinced that our political systems, and the filth and decay that is ia them, will ba destroyed in the next five years. But I am equally convinced that out of our travail will come a more divine economie system as given us at Mt Sinai. I am convinced that a new age will come upo- - ui, where the Bible foretells, men will beat their swords into plowshares and their spears into prunning hooks. And that is why, though the way is bard and confused these dark days, I personally entertain much less fear in my soul than I did before I began to get a faint glimmering of light shining through the forest."

Yifc His philosophy stands and His truth shines above the earth. There can be no peaee and good will until men adopt His plan. Love one another. Be merciful Suck righteousness. Do good to ever. yone We feel sure that Governor Maw will not knowingly put but Americana on guard in the present crisis. None should any in a time of war within and war without, he put ia places of responsibility on any defense program who are not willing to support their Commai They talk of other coua. tries having been divided before their fall. Let ue tell you, with all the force we have that this nations citisena are so divided today that they are ready, and even anxious to spring at e ch other. These are harsh words but they ars true. der-inchi- cf Two women, good friends from southern Utah, were here Tuesday having accomanied their sons on their way to the training camps. We asked them: "How do you like the idea of sending your sons away? They replied: We are willing to give our boys but we are not willing to submit to strikes that hinder defense while they are at the front. And we are not willing that political orators should be dividing the nation so that our boys will have to fight their fellow Americans at home. Think of our boys out there for S2I a mouth while traitors are seeking to destroy the commander-i- n chief." There is a promise, as sacred as any ever given to poor struggling and oppressed humanity, contained in Holy Writ, and which will be fulfilled to the very letter. It is this: Tha day is coming when They shall not hurt or destroy in all my holy mountain, or kingdom. And this: They shall beat their swords into plowshares and their spears into prunning hooks." What a day it will he when there shall be none to hurt or destroy, and none to make war upon their fellows. We should long ago hare congratulated St. George on winning so great a victory for municipal ownership. AH cities should begin a move in this direction. When the financial crash, which is expected soon, comes the publie will have to take over all plants because conditions wiU be such that private companies cannot operate them. The Federal Power Commission is doing some wonderful work in the interests of the people. It ia investigating and showing up many of the power companies and bringing out how they have mulcted great sums of money from the publie by means of watering their stock. Some 211 companies have replied to date and have excluded more than 841,000,000 of capital in excess of original coat. In the first 28 companies investigated and checked so far the commission found 641,000 000 more water. Giving him full credit for all the good he is doing for Utah we still hold to the opinion that Sen. Abe Murdock would be the last man to turn against the Presidents order opening d the big factory in California. In any fair and reasonable contest between capital and labor our sympathies are with labor; but in a contest between the governments defense program and labor, we are for and with the government. This is the time for both sides to pray for and seek wisdom and the spirit of justice and tolerance because their beloved Americas very existence depends on the amicable and peaceable solution of their problems Many great and good men have made dire predictions of grave trouble and revolution.

To the Spiritual and studious individual awakened to the need of better living conditions and a new order of things in places where there is an abundance for all, and in which war and crime can become permanently abolished there is tremendous work to do; especially in the education of die new generation.
