THE HOLY SPIRIT Holy Spirit a Person The Holy Spirit can. hear and speak. "Howbeit when he, the. Spirit of truth, is come, he shall guide you into all the truth: for he shall not speak from himself; but what things soever he shall hear, these shall he speak: and he shall declare de-clare unto you things to come." (John 18:13). Surely such statements can not be made concerning any influence or cosmic force. Not only is the Holy Spirit a person, but attributes of God are ascribed to him. First, omnipresence. "Whither shall I go from thy Spirit?" (Psa. 139:7). David meant by this question to say that it is impossible im-possible to escape the presence of the Holy Spirit; he is omnipresent. omni-present. Again, Paul says we "were all made to drink of one Spirit." (1 Cor. 12:13). Whether Jew or Gentile, bond or free, in Europe or America, all are partakers of the one Spirit Nothing less than an omnipresent Being could fill this requirement. J (Continued) .

Then Byrnes told reporters that "I have no plans to come back into the government." He said he planned to return to South Car olina 4oday or tomorrow. Despite Byrnes' statement, and despite the complications raised by the imminence of the San Francisco meeting, some well-placed well-placed persons were offering odds that Byrnes would be in the cabinet as secretary of state not long after the San - Francisco meeting was over. In that post, they pointed out, Byrnes would be senior member of the cabinet; on tap to help formulate hi, policy on domestic as wen as foreign affairs, and would be heir to the presidency if anything snouio nappen to Mr. Truman. These same sources predicted I the gradual replacement, per-1 haps over a period, of several months, of Secretary of Labor Frances Perkins, Attorney General Gen-eral Francis Blddle,, and perhaps per-haps Secretary of Treasury Henry Hen-ry Morgenthau, it J The latter change might be the last of the series.
