Show Read and Study This i WRITER INTERPRETS EVENTS AND PROPHECIES ACCORDING TO BIBLE. As a student of World War II's "roots, and of contemporary facts (chief of which is that teeming Japan, Germany and Italy enjoy but a small fraction of earth's lands and resources), unlike many, the writer believes the demands and aims of the "Have-not" lean-and-hungry Axis powers are, actually, actu-ally, essentially just. But for their methods ! - For the indignities imposed by Axis barbarians on the dignity, individuality individ-uality and freedom of the human soul, and for their crimes against civilization in waning aggressive war for loot not stopping at murder mur-der and rape.I, along with all thinking, feeling, beings, feel only natural fear and great disapproval and condemnation! So much so, that I feei that Hitler's "Nazi regime" may, now, (Continued o most fittingly be dubbed "the Nasty regime," even if my friend oft-running, political office aspirant aspi-rant J. A. Hess is "not impressed" with this ascription. (Yet how can Mr. Hess deny that Hitler's is indeed in-deed a very nasty regime when I show him photos of atrocity-murders inflicted on Russian civilians by the Nazis from pg. 34, June 29, issue of "LIFE" Magazine.) But both Mr. Hess and I, along with a fortunately steadily mounting mount-ing number of thinking individuals, individu-als, see that Edward Bellamy is right in declaring that America (in particular) has so far completed com-pleted but one-half of her "revolution," "revo-lution," the securing of political freedom, and that the other half (securing economic freedom and equality of opportunity to all) remains re-mains yet to be accomplished! For we must assuredly do such things as make possible to each family the securing of a "stake in i page fo r) Continued From Page Ij Yet, save and until we repent unto obedience to these great stat-America," stat-America," or inviolable, secure inheritance in-heritance (Micah 4:4); release debtors every seventh year, when unable to pay them (Deut. 15:2 and Matthew 6:12); abolish Interest In-terest on money (Leviticus 25:36 and Ezekial 18:13); operate at least the great natural resources socially for the common good (Jsalms 24:1) take taxes only from people's surplus, as in the proposed 9 per cent gross income tax (Numbers 18:30). All of which is assuredly "the Lord's plan" for men and who can deny? Democracy, now limited, highly imperfect and incomplete, must be extended, made full! The Anglo-Saxon peoples (Britain (Bri-tain and America) or "Israel nations" na-tions" have a great destiny indeed in-deed to "possess the gates of your enemies," as Singapore, Gi-bralter, Gi-bralter, Suez, etc. (retention conditioned, however, on obedience obedi-ence to God's statutes and commandments, com-mandments, declares the Bible); to "possess the heathens," to "bring light to those sitting in darkness" and to say to captives, "Come forth!"

All in fulfillment of the Scriptures (Leviticus 26:19 and Deuteronomy, Deuteron-omy, 28th chapter.) You may set this down, it is at once statement of fact and prophecy. This is why it is important that this be published, pub-lished, and as promptly as possible. pos-sible. And I have also communicated communi-cated the substance of this statement state-ment to both President Franklin D. Roosevelt and Mr. Churchill. To longer delay obedience to these great Divine statutes and commandments may well prove fatal! Yet to move forward, now, is at once a challenge and a magnificent opportunity, fully entitling en-titling us, when completed, to the wonderful, copious blessings enumerated enu-merated in Chapter 26 of Leviticus and Chapter 28 of Deuteronomy. We have joy and worlds to gain, nothing to lose but misery and our chains! Belief merely or rituals rit-uals are, now, vain and definitely passe! Our former pride, conceit, greed and unbelief alone must be sacrificed. The New Age is, al-lons! al-lons! Eugene Middleton Sec'y Extend-Demo- i racy Council, Utah State Art Center Salt Lake City |
