In the window of HIS Office on the third floor of the zheadquuarters of the Peace Mission FATHER DI- VINE Stood, smiling down upon « Police HIS welcoming followers and nei.gh- bors after an absence of three days du.ri»n.g whic-h the whole world had ‘ been filled with accusations, rumors and uncertainties. Many members -of the crowd had - been up all night, far down in the City, mvarching up and down before Headquarters, a thousand F 7' strong, waving their handkerc-hiefs , and singing the faith sozngs of the I ' Kingdom.

BROOKLYN, NEW YORK (New Jerusalem), SATURDAY, APRIL 24th, 1937 A.D.F.D. No. 54 I Came to Set Everyone, Who Sincerely Believes, Free from All Limitations, from All Lacks and from All Wants—FATHER DIVINE Be Not Moved Nor Deceived, for GOD Is Not Mocked; You Will Not Have an Occasion to Fret Nor Worry “OUR FA'I.‘HER’S MESSAGE” IN THE AUDITORIUM AT THE RIGHTEOUS GOVERNMENT MEETING, BRIDGEPORT EX- _TENS.ION, N0. 468-470 BROAD STREET, BRIDGEPORT, CON- NECTICUT, THURSDAY EVE- NING: APRIL FIFTEENTH, 1937 A.D._F.D. TIME: 10:22 P. M, Faithful is the LORD GOD of Hosts, Who brought us out of the land of bondage, into a land of Joy and Freedom, the land which the Saints and the Prophets, and those of other days, had hoped to inherit, but they missed the Mark;——and though they tried with feeble strength and with conscientious hearts, many of them, they did not attain unto the Goal, wherewith their possession lie-s. Because of the fact that the TRUTH in its entirety had not yet oome to the earth in their day, they gave up the fight, and asaresult, their bodies now mingle with the dust and with the elements of time, but their an- guished Souls go marching on, seek- ing DELIVERANCE from the Yoke, of Religious Bondage, and other bar- riers that have: enslaved the Soul for 10 these Centuries. GOD in His Mercy and Corn as- sion heard the groaning and the cries of the Soul, seeking its DELIVER- ANCE;——-yet, that which is termed the Soul by man, is not GOD'S In- terpretation of the Soul; for in the beginning ,we are told, “GOD breath- *ed in man the Breath of Life, and nian became a Living Soul;” there- ..“\‘ fore, that which is termed “The Soul, the Mind and the Body," by man, is the Soul which GOD came to earth to save; Blest be the NAME of-— the LORD. Traveling the earth like a Mighty Man is Our LORD FATHER DI- VINE, going to and fro, sifting the wheat from the tares, gathering the Harvest, and -destroying the «chaff, and establishing HIS KINGDOM Uni- Versally, in fulfillment of the Word. Truly can we of this day and Dis-' pensation, not only sing, but say with assurance: “My FATHER is Rich in houses and land, ‘ HE holdeth the wealth of the world in His Hand, Of Rubies and Diamonds, of Silver and Gold, HIS Coffers are full, HE has treasures untold.” With great delight, the LORD Him- self, shows His Children, a few of them, great stretches of houses and land up. in the Mountains in the Promised Land. All of this is far beyond their fondest imagination, and yet, we are told by HIM, Who fashioned all things, “This is but a A sketch and a reflection of a percent, of a percent, of a percent of a frac- tion of what I will do for all man- kind Universally.”’ How marvelous! FATHER returned to the City, to the New York Headquartersfto re»- main only -a short time, before HE again made His Departure to visit ftlie Bridgeport Angels. ‘The children _. ’ in the City shouted great ‘joy to y~ C-welcome their LORD and MAST-ER, and while they continued their Praises “in the Presence of His HOLY SPIR- SAGE in the ‘Auditorium «of the -‘Bridgeport Extension, where the __ Children from the New York Exten- . , sion united with their Heavenly re- lation in the Holy PRESENCE of their FATH-ER_. Because millions are liiﬁsw waitiii" for -this Great Lesson front the hiouth -of the _EoRi:>, we graciously -thank the of all . j good gifts tor the privilege of the Publication of same in these Columns. We" thank THEE SWEET SAVIOUR. I i O. FATHER sang the folio’-wing Songs: ‘_‘Faith is the victory that overooniest That overcomes! that overcomes!

Praise the LORD forevermore.” EVERYONE: , (“Peace FATHER DEAR!” return- ed the joyous response of the An- gels.) Here we all are again; and there I sit and stand, transmitting , This is the Work, of GOD on earth among them, that HE might bring the Character- istics Nature of GOD to the Earth Plane, and enact a Law far transcending all of the laws of men, -that «HE might -be established in them, and be enthroned on this Law, in this Law and by this Law on the ‘Throne of the minds of the children of men, When this shall have been established universally, mankind will realize new Era, a new Day, yea, a new Dispensatiion‘. They are now in a new Dispensation, but they are not conscious of it univ‘ersally;——-but the time cometh, and is near at hand, i when they shall be conscious of GOD’S Actual PRESENCE, and the ushe«i'ln»g in of a NEW DAY com- pletely;—a NEW Dispensation which will be, and as it is, thesadvent of RIGI-I,T_EOUSNESS, TRUTH and JUSTICE, as a Foundation of Gov- ernment universally;—not only as a Foundation, but as the only Founda- tion upon which Government -can be fo'unded;—for there has no other -fo"u"ndati«o’n been _ laid, saving that which has already been laid, and there shall no other foundation be laid, saving that which I AM stress- that has already been laid. RIGHTEOUSNESS VVILL EXALT ANY NATION For this cause we are rejoicing and we are exceedingly glad to bring into action, and put into service, the RIGHTEOUS GOVERNMENT that we have created in the consciousness of millions through that which is termed “Religion,” by converting men and women from materialism, mortality and carnality to True Spir- itualism, spirituality and the reality or -a Real Salvation, by converting them from mortality to Immortality, "that they might bring themselves, in- to siibjeétioii to RIGHTEOUSNESS, TRUTH and JUSTICE, that .the -lit 1‘I,'3,:?E7.C:i’§T;$1;‘T1§S:S_.fof hon “slit Saturday, duty and in practical service allt matically. By so doing, they to as well as you, when they all sha be" inspired by the same Spirit which you are inspired with, sha move and act Volitionally, and sh speak then, and control themselv accordingly, because “RIGHTEOU NESS will exalt any nation, whi "sin is a reproach to any, people.” ' For this cause We have drafted the ’ RIGHTEOUS GOVERNMENT PLATFORM, and we have brought into outer expression, the significance of living upon this Foundation, and building upon this Faounda-tion, b bringing into outer expression through living Evangelically, according to our R I G H T E O U S GOVERNMENT__ . PLATFORM, the ABUNDANCE of; the Fullness of all good things; and "A by putting forth into exp»ressi_0n th, acts of the Law of RIGHTEOUS- NESS, we -see SUCCESS and PROS- PERITY, and we see_ all failures dis- pelled. They are no longer -even ob- served among us, for the failing -days ‘have passed away; SUCCESS and IPROSPERITY and the days of prog- xressiveness have come to stay. SIGNIFICANCE OF EVAN GELICAL LIVING It is a privilege to realize whe every opposition and when every per son «or individual who may attempt to criticize, the Spirit of My -PRES- A ENCE will lift you above criticism, I aboveoppositions, above lacks, wants , . and limitations, and cause others -to i » see conclusively with you, the siglivi-I ficance of living Evangelically, Oh! it is a privilege to unify your- selves together, and to think at least._ on one pointharmoniously. By that " harmonious -Contact on the one point.‘ especiafiy, you find the reactions of such a harmonious Contact bringing a desirable result for all of you. The Y, desirable -result is when your zeal and -courage and your faith’ are stirred to the overflowing point."In- ' \, _~ stead of diminishing, your "faith has been increasing; instead of being O shaken, you are being substantiated, I in faith and unshaken in confidence. _ For this cause we can say with -the Apostle: " I if “We glory . also in tribul‘a'tio_ns,'r knowing that tribulations w 1”: th 5 patients; and patieiifoe~ ._,3i§:tllidar.‘Apiil~ 24th. 1937 of GOD is shed abroad in the ' hearts of yours.” Upon this Foundation if you will ‘stand, ‘trials and tribulations may go ' .5r‘co_me, it will be absolutely im- jnaterial to you, “For what the ’LORD"has promised, HE is able to perform.” The power of GOD is - just the same, today, SPIRIT QF , GOD. STIRRED When the last Speaker mentioned What she said, GOD would not con- tinue—-in other words, would not al- low things to continue as they were apparently, «or words to that effect, I thought of the Spirit of GOD where- soever HE is, being stirred when op- positions arise against the children ‘ of His;—when the oppositions arise against the children of GOD, the. Spirit of GOD is stirred, and It will speak in the hearts and minds of the children of men, and tell them ggtrlething at times, by inspiration, by "revelation, by vision and by ”; ""d_rear,n_s, as words of consolation. In these Ways and means, at times, you . can get a fore-light and a fore-sight of what will be. GOD will not suf- it to continue to be as it has been. The Spirit will encourage your Soul; will give you a prediction by inspiration of the future of what GOD will do for you. GOD HAS PROMISED VICTORIES This was the experience of the last Speaker. The time has truly come, GOD has come, not necessarily in an Individual especially, but sup- pose you would stop for consideration, and observe the Unfol-dment of the Mystery as GOD is speaking, and as O GOD is acting upon the impulse of the moment, working in the hearts and minds of the children of men, bringing them into subjection to HIM; bringing about RIGHTEOUS- _r_IE'S._s, TRUTH and JUSTICE. You are convinced when you observe it once and forever, GOD has truly come been enthroned on the Throne of the minds of men, and none shall hinder ‘HIM, HE will accomplish u{g',t‘which HE has promised. HE prornisedi these victories and ggntgvements for you and for others. §x ina>.i.teti9at»' tr eéxapesiticns, ‘I yr-i ‘ ‘9¥"Yi%i‘?:*i€"3»¥1:<1;“7!%Y cums .an'clby’ presentrneénts, as they Y rue usroxrﬁr ween’ may, be termed, by being intuitively led and inspired, your highest intui- tion at times will tell you something; telling you by inspiration and intui- tively what will be,’ and how GOD will set you FREE from certain un- desirable conditions, from the oppres- sions of the oppress-ors, from the de- pressions of those who would ‘bring hardships upon you, and from the suppressions of the suppressors and all of those who would be adverse to you. THE GREAT EMANOIPATOR The Spirit of MY PRESENCE and the PRESENCE of My Spirit as the Great Emancipator with or without, a Body has truly come to bring RIGHTEOUSNESS, TRUTH and JUSTICE into your consideration, and put these Qualities and Char- acteristics into practice, that GOD might be established, and that we might have a RIGHTEOUS GOV- EIRNMENT, of which in short is The ‘KINGDOM of GOD. You have been taught to pray: “Let Thy KINGDOM come, and Thy Will be done.” The Prayer you prayed from your earliest existence, was such, to that effect, requesting GOD’S Blessings upon you and others here and now, n-ot merely to gain that when you passed from ‘this world of existence, -but you have prayed even in your Churches, even when you were in your Catech- ism, you were taught to pray to let the KINGDOM come, and the Will be done on earth as it is, or as it was in Heaven " . PRAYERS HEARD AND ANSWERED The Spirit was speaking in the request,—in these requests by the Prayer to the ALMIGHTY, the IN- FINITE, transmitting these requests through you and others as individuals, that the Prayers might be heard and answered from the INFINITE; and by the OMNIPOTENT, .the reason would be fulfilled. The Prayer has been actually heard. Your Prayer has been actually answered, if you are radical enough to’ believe it, and let“ go of your pre-conceived ideas and opinions, and crack the shell of limit- ation, and revel into the Glorious Li-belfty that you might declare it. If rev an. I and W111 do it?» than ir.ou[Wi11 be sséﬁ "pltiirilyi 'an~c'1 xiii. C @111 see plainly’ the reality -of‘ your declara- Ifage 5 tion concerning the matter. Making a declaration, as being termed an Affirmation, is one of the great essentials.’ It is essential" to openly declare your determination and your faith in HIM in whomyou trust. Why is it, for it has long since been declared: I “Think no-t to say within thine heart,” or Say not in thine heart, Who shall ascend into HEAVEN?” (that is, to bring CHRIST down from above:) Or, “Who shall descend into the deep?” (that is to -bring up CHRIST again from dead) “But what saith it? The Word is nigh -thee, even in thy mouth, and in thy heart;—and if you will lieve in your heart and confess with y_our mouth, you shall be saved. For with the heart man believeth unto RIGI-ITEOUSNEASS; and into RIGHTEOUSNESS.” OPEN CON FES SION E SSENTIAL I will substantiate it. I will Uni- versalize it. You believe unto RIGHTEOUSNESS, and into RIGHT- EOUSNESS, but with your mouth confessi-on is made unto Salvatio_n; —so the open confession and an open expression are the great essentials for the DELIIVERANCE of the peo- ple. They must make their A_fIir- mation known‘ by openly speaking-— in other words, declare their Attir- mation as being a Declaration; for in reality, it is what you are declar- ing. When you have declared by A1.’- ﬁrma,tion,—for as soon as GOD has Conﬁrmed your Affirmation, they are no longer Affirmations, but Declara- tion-s, and brought into your eon- scious realization to be established for the observation of others. Hi When you consciously realize such as you have affirmed and declared, then and there, they are in your realization for the consi=de_ration through concentration of others,lthat they might be Partakers of your Faith in ‘which you’ stand that they might join with you in heart and in mind.. Then I say, your Afﬁrrnatiqns are no. lenser Aﬁﬁrmiations, they are Di§.9ltireti9s$' they shall. FIRM'E‘R., They "are, rn;ad’e‘ REAL" to l ‘ I heretofore. O ., believe l,“ ‘OMNIPOTENT PRESENT ONE, Who produces and ~.vp Page 6 A '-you, that you ‘might ‘be able to de- clare just what you have afﬁrmed When this shall have been done, it is’ established in you, _ 5 and you realize it is true;——then and there, your realization stands as an open expression ,for the concentra- tion of others,‘. that they .too might the MESSAGE, and be Blessed through concentration, and through affirmation as you did, that they too, might receive the Bless- ings since they believe. NOUGHT WILL BE ABLE TO HARM Upon .this Foundation, if you will f stand and withstand,——after having ‘done all to stand, then stand, nought "will be able to hurt nor harm you; even over and above every foe I will ' lift you and be with you whitherso- ever you go. Oh! it is a privilege to realize I when I speak all can listen to My .*V,oice. I speak not in the stead of itinan, nor in the stead of mankind, I ‘AM speaking from a point wherein man cannot understand, for I speak -from the angle of the INFINITE, the and the OM'NI- actually materializes, and Who is the PERSONIFIER of RIGHTEOUS- ’ NESS, TRUTH and-JUSTICE, and ,all of GOD'S Attributes in reality, When these desirable Qualities and Attributes are materialized and per- soniﬁed, then and there, if you are with HIM, you are with them, and if you are not with HIM, as it may be termed, you are not with them. I AM JOY, PEACE, LIFE, HEALTH and LOVE, and everything else that is good. . S - DESIRABLE QUALITIES PERS-ONIFIED Oh! it is a privilege to realize these desirable Qualities as personiﬁed and as ‘visualized, are the Blessings of ' whi-ch I AM stressing for your con- sideration, to take with you now, henceforth and forever. When I say, “Will you let ME go home with you ?" ,1 AM not speaking of My PER- « SONAL APPEARANCE as I Physi- cally stand, but that for which I ‘_,-.stand.. That for which I stand is it ' ’_,of‘ which all mankind desires. You 5 desire to be well, healthy, joyful, peaceful, , lively, loving, successful, , and liappyi; you desire to ll-wise, .’4_L1r.rli?giity,‘ having all ;-_9n_, :, g, 5 The “SPOKEN WORD?’ Knowledge and all Understanding. All of these qualities‘and attributes that I AM stressing daily, I have Personiﬁed them for you, that you might stressfully visualize them and materialize them by the recognition of such an expression being a Living Reality for you, Each and all of these desirable At- tributes and Characteristics and Qualities of GOD, to you, and for you I have stressed, that you might viv- idly visualize them, and materialize them through visualization and through your conscious conviction and realization of GOD'S PERSON- AL PRESENCE. By this you will believe sincerely into RIGHTEOUS- NESS, and unto RIGHTEOUSNESS, and your confession will be made of your DELIVERANCE, your FREE- DOM from all adverse and undesir- able conditions. WHERE VVINDS AND DOCTRINES CANNOT COME Oh! it is a privilege to observe the signiﬁcance of GOD being with you in reality. When this recognition in you shall have been established, as one Writer said: “The other place may rage and vent her spite, But GOD will save His Heart’s De- light.” O Upon this Foundation, if you stand, you cannot be shaken by the winds nor by the doctrines of men, for you will be so far above them, you will be, where their winds and -doctrines cannot come. Now aren’t you glad? (“Truly glad!” assured the Hearers.) GOD SPEAKING IN TU-ITIVELY IN HEARTS AND LIVES While living in this Recognition, you can, and you will be ﬁlled with enthusiasm, VVhy? Because you are conscious of GOD’S Actual PRES- ENCE;—conscious of the Actions of GOD in His Active Duty toward you and all others; being a Living Real- ity, and having become to be to you, a Living Factor that cannot be hin- dered. That is what is the matter with these, My Followers, who are following ME daily, and those with whom I come in contact;-—having been lifted above certain undesirable conditions, because of their Recogni- tion of GOD'S Actual PRESENCE, and because of bringing themselves into subjection to',the Great FUN-, ,DAjMENTAL.. Then I say, if you _ Saturday, April _2”4Vtl1,, 1937 have a Vision, be true to your ir"ltui- The information 7 I which I have so freely given intui- tively, for I have been speaking in- j ‘tuitively in the hearts and lives of . millions, even before they knew or heard of ME PERSONALLY, but tive information. when you come in contact with ME PERSONALLY, if you are highest leading intuition cometh from your Intutor, One Who can and actually does teach you intuitively, because HE is within you, and HE does not have to be as an external Instructor nor Intutor, because HE can, and will tell you within you; so that is the mystery. That is why it is better revealed than told; while yet if I tell you Person- rally, intuitively I will tell you. “BEFORE THEY CALL I WILL ANSWER” When I tell you Personally, if you are true and faithful, may term these versions to be, there is where I‘ will speak and there is where you will hear. “Before they call I will answer, i and while they are yet speaking, I will hear." S Then I say, the RIGHTEOUSNESS , into which you are believing and which you have been stressing, it was this of which I AM telling you, ——this ‘RIGHTEOUS GOVERNMENT , of which we‘ have established, and the RIGHTEOUS GOVERNMENT PLATFORM, the Foundation upon which you stand. » THE KEYNOTE OF SALVATION Oh! it is a privilege to realize it; then I say, live in this Recognition continually, and lo, I will be with you.

I sjatui-day, April. 24th,, 19é7 this cause, you .can see the harmony ~tl1_'at actually exists inthese My Au- diences wheresoever I AM. Why? 7'1 Because they are in harmony at least on one point to believe that I AM that I AM, (“GOD!” interjected the Angels spontaneously.) Nevertheless, this belief is the Keynote of Salva- ir tion; but you must bring yourselves into this Spirit of Analyzation, and be willing to be brought through the Spirit of Equalization, through ana- lyzing all things by the Great Ana- lyzer, and by equalizing all things by the Great Equalizer. GETTING-TOGETHER POINT ‘ ' When this shall have been accom- plished within you, you will not only be together on one point especially, but you will be together completely in all things that concern you, This is the Getting-together point. Get- ting together ﬁrstly on the point of belief, the faith in Him in Whom you trust;—believing sincerely in the PRESENCE of GOD,——the main point for you all, and after having made these especial connecting points for consideration, then you must carry your thoughts, your minds, your _words, your deeds and your actions and all of your expressions through the Spirit of Analyzation, that it might be carried through the Spirit of Equalization, that you might have an EQUITABLE Adjustment, and that GOD on the Throne of the mind of one and all might be able to JUDGE you with EQUITY. ‘ THE FOUNDATION CANNOT BE SHAKEN When this shall have been estab- lished, then and there, RIGHTEOUS- NESS shall be a Living Reality, and you shall be founded upon this R I G H T E O U S GOVERNMENT PLATFORM where nothing can shake you. The Foundation cannot be shaken. Why? Because it is the Foundation that none other can lay. It is, the Foundation that has al- . ready been laid. Oh! it is a privilege to observe, and to feel the Actual PRESENCE of GOD, how GOD through, over and . above every mortal version, over and ' iabove, all of the theories and doc- ti-ines of men, over and above every ' ‘opriticisim, over -and above all of the ..<;o_nventionalities, over and above all 6*? the ;3n9rti~1 ¢°n°¢x#s_. sf men» We _above these things to The “SPOKEN WORD” and above all of the ideas and opin- ions of them, in the way of accusa- tion or criticism, or any other mor- tal expression, GOD can, and will lift you once and forever, where those things cannot hinder, if you know GOD in reality, PRECIOUS GEMS BROUGHT FORTH Remember, every precious gem comes from some place far beyond the conside-ration of those who are wearing those gems. They come from the mines and the lowest parts of the sea or ocean whichever, and different places, but when they are brought forth turned into the unadulterated gems, they are the most precious stones that came from the most, and through the most hardships to get them. Remember, trials and tribu- lations, criticisms, oppositions and everything that a mind can think in opposition contrary and antago- nistic, conﬂicting and in the way of accusations and condemnations, through all of these things, will you ﬁnd your GOD. Take these thoughts to considera- tion. If the PRESENCE of GOD in His MAJESTY, DOMINION and AU- THORITY, with Love and all of His Mercy was to come, if HE were, and these combined, were to come with- out going through, and ‘bringing your thoughts through, over and you, GOD would not be worth-while;--but as the little chick must "pick his way through the shell, and as every- thing else, when it is -seeking its de- liverance before birth, and before it is hatched out, so must you crack the shell of mortal limitations and those things that try to bind you—— and rise above the limited conditions, and get where those things cannot ﬁnd you. BREAK THE SHELL OF LIMITATIONS ‘The little bird picks his way through the shell of limitation, the , shell that holds them before the de- velopment within them takes place. When they shall have picked through the shell of limitation, they will come out Victoriously a oonqueror, for the things that they were in, they kept them there until they had developed to the place in action and in con- sciousness whereby they could de- and developed and. Page 7 liver themselves, The children : of GOD » must deliver themselves from the shell of materialism, mortality and the bars of conventionality and other limitations of men; for in man_ you came, as the chick in the egg. Now isn't that wonderful? But there was a law; the law of that egg, and the law of the egg-shell by nature was to hold that egg until the egg -was turned completely into a chick, ‘and until it would become able to pick. It is just as radical and as dis- tinct concerning yourselves coming from the shell of materialism, mor- tality and the mortal versions of men to the Glorious Liberty of thelSons of GOD, as it was, and as it is for an egg to be turned to a chick, and the chick developed to the place in strength and in mind, where he can pick and free himself from the shell of limitation. Each and every indi- vidual should free himself or herself from the shell of limitation, from the shell of materialism, from the shell of mortality, and the versions that bind them, even as the skin inside of the egg-shell, when the chick shall have been developed, will try to bind ' ‘ the little chick in it, until he picks his way to freedom. VEIL TORN IN TWAIN Materialism as the skin of the shell of mortal limitation will at- tempt to hold you behind that veil, but as was in the experience of one when he beheld as though the veil was torn in twain, that mankind could look diligently in the Temple of GOD, and see the ONE therein; so it is with you, the veil of mate- rialism must be torn in twain -as well as the shell must be cracked and broken apart, that you might be able to come out. You are coming out of the shells of limitations, lacks, wants and ad- verse and undesirable conditions and the veil as the skin of the egg of materialism is being torn in twain,‘ that you might get your DELIVER- ANCE. sincerely believes FREE from all materialism, from all limitations, from all lacks, and from all wants, that you might revel into the Glori- ous Liberty of the Sons of GOD, and be under the One and the Only Law, , 3 —-the -Law of the Spirit of Life that was I came to set everyone who ’ in CHRIST JESUS as being -5, ,‘_.,., from a Governmental point of. -view, from‘ our angle of expres- s»';eh, the "RIGHTEOUS GOVERN- MENT PLATFORM, the Law upon which we stand, .. sans: THE I OF GOD .fI_T,his was to be from- the begin- nieg to believe unto RIGHTEOUS- nnss, and the Law of the Spirit of Life, that has made you FREE from the,law of sin and death. “First seek ye .t,he,»KINGDOM of GOD and His RIGI,-ITEOUSNESS, and all these things shall be added unto you.” You can_plainly see the Scripture, both of the old Testament and the New ’,I‘estame»nt, as, the Gospel and the Epistle, were all pointing out to this pg.y,« when RIGHTEOUS GOVERN- MENT would be enacted upon the face of the. earth, that we might have a._,,RIGHTEOUS GOVERNMENT un- ‘ C1e..I‘._.;which to live.

It is in- deed wonderful! ALLOW THE_ LAW TO WORK IN YOU I hear men say from time to time, “I would like to be successful!” “If I could only do this, that or the oth- er.” As one said this Evening, the Minister said what would be done, if I would say this, that or the other. It is to be considered, if he, or any other individual desires to produce and bring into expression the things that I AM producing and brinﬁng into expressing, as I AM doing Men- tally and Spiritually by association, they too, will be partakers of the identical Substance and Magnetism,. ‘as it may -be termed, that will bring "those things to them. That is why they cannot get them, because they -desire to get _them without going by the law of Association, The law will produce it, but you must have the law and allow the law to work in you, as in ‘ME, to produce that which you desire to have concerning ME. The law works automatically, and it is Impersonal; therefore, it is as operative for you, as it is for others, but you must work accordingly. Now isn't that wonderful? (“Truly wonderful!” came the loud shouts of the Assembly.) “Why is it, I cannot get you all,” the ministers wﬂl say at times, “Why is it, you all ._do; not do by me, or by the Church as FA- THER. DIVINE’S Followers do by HIM, or by His Organization?” They may say it, it is tru.e:——well why is it, they «do not do as I do?

The Prom- ise was, that they must come by per- secutions, not only by prosecutions, but by persecutions, “Blessed are ye, when men» shall revile you, and persecute you, and shall sa-y all manner of evil against you falsely for My Namesake.” They shall persecute you,» and say all manner of evil against you false- ly; everything a mind can think, and everything a tongue can-say, and all of these’ things will be falsely for My Namesake. “In that day REJOICE, and be exceedingly glad, for great is your reward in HEAVEN/,’, but when these persecutions come forth into expression, they are increasing and multiplying the Blessings by ‘millions, and causing you to have Blessings that are limitless, because of the per- secutions that are coming. ‘ A PRI;YI_L_EG_E_ TO BE PERSECUTED _. .

I thank you. LETTING GO By Katherine Newoomb If we watch people for one day, we shall “ﬁnd that everyone is either trying to get or to hold on to ﬁxings. With the business man all effort is put forth in getting. Ministers preach to get converts to their creed. ‘Teachers teach to get followers to their belief. Mothers desire to get everything for the improvement and good of their children. Children are educated——a getting of the ideas of other minds. The whole world seems bent on “get- ting_” What does it all mean, this eter- nal and everlasting “getting”? Just this: that we look for every- thing outside of ourselves. This tells the whole story,-—seeking and nev- er being satisfied; holding on tight if we succeed in deluding ourselves with the idea that we have got any- thing. We have looked outside for health, happiness, prosperity, heav- en, and God. We have expected to draw them to us, and therefore must “‘hold on” to them. ' What is this gospel of “letting go”? When We ‘feel ‘sure of a. ‘thing, -—that we really possess it,———we “let go.” There is never any effort need- ed to hold on to a thing that is really ours. ’ “Letting go” is an opening up-~—— a receptive condition of mind. If you are wealthy, you can “let go,” and spiritual wealth will pour in upon you. If you are poor, you can “let go,” and the same spiritual wealth will flood yo-u. This proves that opulence is spiritual; for We can be rich when poor and poor when rich. “Let go,” no matter what comes. It is not resisting. Je- sus said, “Resist not evil.” And of course, we would not resist good. so “letting go”'is a gospel of min- resistance. Anger is often hurtful than the injury that caused it.’ ' I 3 Pc.

Describing which is to open on May 1st, Bern- hard Ragner writes, “All France is looking forward with eagerness to the International Exposition of Arts and Crafts, the gates of which will swing open on May 1st. It is described as an in- ventory of the civilization of today and of tomorrow. More than hal.f a hundred nations will be represent- ed, from every clime, regime and philosophy. Fascism, sovietism, Cath- olicism, republicanism and Hitler- ism will all answer “present” when the exposition is inaugurated on the French Labor Day. The newcomers among nations——Finland, Iraq and Poland, to mention only three——-will be there; also the Vatican ?City, with the papal flag flying over the pont.i- fical pavilion, and Palestine, which will exhibit the progress achieved in a decade and a half in the Jewish S national home. I The United States will have a pavilion and the week of July 4th will be devoted.‘ to at series of American. festivals. Face Toward the Future “Expositions, asarule, look to the past; they commemorate some world- stirring event (it was the French Revolution when the Eiffel Tower appeared in Paris in 1889) or they mark a milestone in human history and interpret its significance. The exposition of 1937 is different; its face will be steadfastly turned to- ward the future. Except for the retrospective exhibit devoted to three centuries of French art, its mission will be to evoke the "visage of things to come. It will strive to be a col- lective Jules Verne and forecast the cities of the future, built for clean- “ liness, light and joy. “Whether the architects (technical and moral) of the exposition are acquainted with Henry van Dyke is doubtful; but they have unconsci- ously taken a couplet from his “Homecoming Song,” made it their own, _and transformed it into steel 1 and stone and fact: N set the future free; W_e._:1ov_e_ our land‘ for what she is, I .-a.n,d_what.shetis to be. , the Paris Exposition, “Dr. Van Dyke was thinking of America; but the exposition author- ities have widened his vision so- that it includes the universal mother- land of humanity. And each nation, whether it be Italy or America, Germany or Russia, despite their numerous differences and contrasts, will exhibit “what she is,” but the emphasis will be placed on “what she is to be.” Especially in prac- tical, every-day things, and in that useful, difficult art of living. Setting the Future Free “Each country will tell how it seeks “to set the future free”; free from disease, from useless toil, from ugliness. Each will present what it considers its distinctive contri- bution to the general welfare of man, to the comfort and delight of each individual, by _way of manu- factures, architecture, inventions, and the application of art to eat- ing, playing, working, and striving for happiness. “Certainly, the peo- ple need art,” said Victor Hugo, “but art also needs the people,” and the exposition intends to bring the two together. “Whatis the future of the radio? Of motion pictures? Of hygiene‘? Of travel? Of medicine? Of leisure? How will the traffic problem be handled half a century hence? How_ will the homes of tomorrow bebuilt, equipped and decorated? What of television? Aviation? Playgrounds for children? In a series of imagi- native exhibits the exposition prom- ises to answer these questions and many others equally vital. “Of course, there will be spectacu- lar exhibits, such as the Tower of Babel and the Hanging Gardens of Babylon, which comprise the Iraq section. The Seine will be trans.- formed into a stream of silver, as vari-colored, artificial clouds float above the new Trocadero, while music sounds from distant New York or Moscow. The Eiffel Tower, having taken part in four exposi- tions, will do its bit for this one as well; at night it will be transform- ed into a giant electrical Tri-Color?

It must or his. effort that it pos- first practical possibility pen the potential strength §§és of workers. “The most cogent of the-se is this: “An alliance of farmers and work- ers would, as has been pointed out, be feasible only for great and states- manlike objectives, for matters of national policy in which all com- mon people have a stake quite dif- ferent from the defense of special privilege, or even of the general in- terests of the high-income» group. No labor leader, including even Mr. ‘ Lewis, though he may have these larger policies worked out in his mind and very much in his heart,,, can afford to devote himself to them. He has set out to organize steel, automobiles»-and then other industries—as he has organized mining. He will be judged by his success in this. It will take all his energy for a long time to accom- plish it, and he will be too wise to divide his energies. “The alliance, if it comes, must be worked out with him; he might in time turn out to be its leader, for he is a strong man. But it is not his job. If a farmer’s move- ment should arise and come to him for alliance he would doubtless wel- come it. But he has gone farther in organizing those masses who were with the President, in the last election than any corresponding farm leader has done. “The farm organizations, though they are nominally national, and though they are not so tormented as labor is now by internal strug- gles, have sharply class interests. The exception here is the Farmers’ Union, whose leadership is closer to its people and whose people are less rigidly confined to the upper income strata. Farmer Have Strong Dislikes “They hate middlemen and they have the strongest consumer and marketing cooperatives in the ‘coun- try. They hate bankers and they have fought them in Congress and with State institutions. They hate —-or used to hate——the railroads and big business in general; and they 1 have been vigorously behind anti- trust laws, railway regulation and like measures since the Seventies and Eighties of the past century; i’ag"e -11 V. ‘and they have shown evidences from time to time of a sympathy for urban labor, which is most signi- cant. ‘It is possible that the. CIO and the Farmers Union between them might in time work out that “national” cooperation which many liberals have talked of. “But so far the strength of the Farmers Union is regional rather than national, even tho-ugh its in- terests are broad. So that an al- liance of this sort seems a long Way off——possibly beyond the next War, probably beyond the next depression, certainly beyond the next election. “No, the alliance must come, not from the extragovernmental side of our society, but out of the political machinery itself. It must if it comes, but of course it need not come at all. Much will evidently depend on the accident of leader'- ship.” ‘ "TVVVvvvvvvivvvvvvvvvvvvvv COME AND DINE AT THE Peace Restaurant > V > i l Best Meals 10 & 15 Cents : 1682 FULTON ST.

The Industrial Common- wealth will be organized for the pur- pose of attaining tangible goals, de- finite goods and values ex-p-ressed in economic terms. The natural ques- tion for everyone to ask is: What does -the Commonwealth offer me now" and in the years to come ? The answer must be a. specific promise in income and in terms of the things which income will purchase. ’ There must be a definite goal to which our entire economic life is geared, and which will link -together all branches and sections of the The establishment of such a goal for all of industry and the establishment of definite goals for all the branches within indus- try, guaranteeing minimum ad- vantages for both individuals and communities, will put our economy on a calculable, orderly ‘belt-line, something like the -belt-line system created some years ago by the Ford automobile factory for its produc- tion requirements. The setting up of proper will bring with it -the cooperation in -Americ-an life which politicians have talked about, but which they have always proved im- potent to create. O.rganization without a focal po-int which it can move in the aggregate is not complete organization. Organ- ization alone can give life to desires of humanity. The President of the United \States .has power, and the vpresident of a com-pany or a bank power, because he directs -and controls organization. With machine power behind it «the Industrial Com- monwealth will be able to exercise an industrial power which will set us all free economi-cally, only when have organization directed toward a definite goal. If the hu- man body functioned the way indus- try functions at present, we should all be either halt, lame or blind, and our bodies would ‘be incapable of act- ing, movinggand operating a.‘~uni_t. THE coALs or AN INDUSTRIAL COMMON- e WEALTH ~ By B. A. JAVITS The central brain system issues its orders to our limbs and organs, and those orders -are obeyed instinctive- ly, unless a particular organ is dis- abled and unable to respond. In in- dustry, however, there is as yet no centr.al brain system, and compo- nent pants of the industrial struc- -ture get in -the way of each other at will, and cause an industrial life full of friction and conflict, the kind of life which would make existence im- possible were it paralleled in our physical bodies. We know also that only those peo- ple are really successful in life who have healthy minds and bodies and who have goals in life which they aspire to reach or objectives in life which they are realizing. Aimless- ness and shiftlessness are to be con- demned in private life as in our present erconomfy. We have indicated in the previous chapter just hoW‘“a central organization can be estab- lished for industry, and it is now necessary to implement that organ- ization with the power of purposes. and goals. If a. .-Salary Were Guaranteed If an organized industry were dur- ing a centa-in year to guarantee a definite minimum salary, which sal- ary would be available to every em- ployable person, who would thus have definite buying ‘power which could be counted on in advance the various parts of our economy would be related to one another closely by that very fact. The manufacturer and the retailer, the manager and the laborer, would then be related to one another in a secure relation- ship. Every man, with the knowl- edge that he had obtained security, would take his place in the economy or find his place in that economy. Such a. practical objective would bring with it calculable order in in- dustry and a clear relationship be- -tween it and government. We should be rid of vague hopes for a pros.- perity which no one bothers to de- fine. We should be rid of promises l X}, it oh "i Sé£ﬁ£iay.‘iA:iri1ri..?£4£i5é. ' or * rectveryl which no plain,‘ and we ‘should be rid . vague and meaningless promises of reform. The Indus .Commonweal~th, with proper can make its prozmises in such; finite terms that everyone T able to understand them and to ‘ _. fit by them. _ j No man enters the employ of other with such vague promis? recovery, prosperity and ‘reform’ his objective and incentive. W11 man goes into employme.-n-t, -pa ‘ ship or business, he attempts to - a clear understanding of what future holds, as well as what :1; present provides, in the way of i 5. ‘ urity, position, rights 3 and ovblig 5‘ tions.

Wh-en Oom- ha "mu-nist party in Russia inaugurated 5d V 1 its Five—Year Plan, many of the .1’ '0 ;Russian -people were willing to die for their economy in peace time, and 1'0‘ many of them were forced to do so Eby the military dictatorship which the Communist party had set up In {that country. Here in the United States We do not have to require 1929 "Similar sacrifices. ‘We :have the ma- ‘ ‘air for industrial organization it ‘Sew Ewe will only learn how to use it, and \ .ve 3 not," rld- 5 L in. :e «t, arver F - have th-e developed resources for q - ge-scale production and the tech- ‘, f cal skill to create unbounded 1 h. But we still lack the com.- ‘_’ goals which will fuse all the Y ° ‘ I “- ~ necessary to create a decent, Nofrl ;‘ war 0’ -life, 8 85 -iiﬁhomi the already avail- able it is perfectly clear that the National Economic Council of an inn dustrial ’ Commonwealth could pl-an programs for five years, ten years and longer periods, which would -raise our standard of living imme.asu.ra.-bly, and that the attainment of such goals would be both ‘practical and , necessary. During 1929 many of the people of the United States con.» sidered that they had organized a. .prac.tic~a1 Utopia, but how far they were from the truth, though it was sensed by some far-sighted people at the time, is only beginning to be brought out in su.rveys which -the depression stimulated. The statistics compiled by the National Survey 01 Potential Product Capacity, publish- ed under the title of The Chart of Plenty, indicate that in 1929, 21,- 456,000 families, approximately 78 per cent of all the families in the United States, had incomes of less than $3,000 a year. Those who had incomes of less than $2,000 a year totalled, 16,354,000 families, or 59 per cent of the families living in the United States. “Actually -’lOl‘l‘le 42 per cent of our people existed on a level below the standard of health and decency,” the authors of The Chart of Plenty wrote, “and another large percentage were able to enjoy only the most elementary comforts.” Only two million families in 1929 enjoyed incomes of ‘$5,000 a year or over. That the industrial plant of the United States was not operatingat full capacity in 1929 is also obvious from the studies made since that year. The production of consumers’ goods was not adequate to suppiy the needs of the American people in 1929, and the unutilized capacity of the industrial plant could have pro- duced goods at a rate which would have supplied the requirements of. the entire population and satisfied their reasonable wants. The authors of The ‘Chart of Plenty came to this conclusion: Therefore, although society is still enduring scarcity, there is no phy.- ical reason why it should continue to do so. Resources, man‘-power, and knowledge, even if applied through the existing and more or less obsolete plant and equally ob- solescent management, are fully capable of banishing‘ scarcity from the continental United States. , "Wealth Would Pile Up" Rapidly It is true that the widespread distribution of wealth would take a. little time, but if an Industrial Com- monwealthonce began to bring in- dustry together and manage it in the public interest, wealth would pile up so rapidly through reason- able profits for industry from its coordinated effort that very soon we should all be enjoying a tremendous increase in the participation of goods and services produced and security for the future. . Statistics indicate clearly that the American people between 1930 and . 1934 were depriving themselves of 287 billions of dollars’, ‘worth of goods and services, at a time when their equipment was adequate to furnish them with necessities in this amount. And this deprivation was due not to villainy, but to lack of organization and lack of goals Ex- cept for housing, economists and statisticians seem to agree, the pro- ductive needs of the American peo- ple could have been fulfilled on a large scale without any important delay with the equipmeht of 1929 Working at full capacity. they were doing this, the industrial equipment could have been modern- ized, as it should have been, and obsolete machinery replaced if we had a plan and order in our eco- nomy. The idle man-hours wasted during the depression years from 1930 to 1934 were sufficient to re- place the entire industrial equip- ment of the United States with modern equipment, according to ‘the estimates of Maurice Leven of A -the Brookings Institution. The authiéifs“ of The Chart of Plenty remarked: “The American plant is equipped to meet a consumer budget which will provide a standard of life for the whole people comparable only to the living standard of the privileged few in other epochs.” ' Enormous Increases Possible Our labor supply‘ is also more than ample -for our industrial needs. The tremendous possibilities of in- dustrial expansion were established by the replies sent to a commission at Columbia University by indus- trial engineers and executives. Some of them estimated that their indus- tries were capable of increasing their output above their best previous I While . u _ rig; V14 ,.! , . performance, by as much as _1,000_ ‘per cent, and the average of the replies was that an increase of 80 per; .cent was practically possible. executives and technicians were also asked how much_ the output of all industries could be increased if e'_qu,ipment and management ,were broughtto the level of the best cur- rent, practice. The replies ranged V downward from a maximum of 200 ’ per, ‘cent, with 60 per cent as the median and 100 as the mode. , , . "The creation of n-eeded goods would have kept every ‘employablei person busy *““'for.'a full 8-hour day,_-and would=7have required further tech- nological improvements. But, while the national‘ ‘ economy becomes‘ poten- itally. mere. productive, the individ- ual‘ grows‘ poorer and poorer, in goods and services, and the national wealth declines, because of lack of proper organization and goals. In 1913 the per capita wealth of the Ignited States was. $1,994, and in 1932 it was $1,981, according _to the ﬁgures of the National Industrial Conference Board. The anarchical individual management of our eco- norny and the political interference ' with__.it ‘had destroyed so much of the profits of industry and of our‘ potential resources as actually to set us back in national wealth because of. our .lack of intelligence to use our. productive, capacity and distr'- bu-te its .results properly. If an In- dustrial Commonwealth had been in existence in 1913, have had such great fluctuations in wealth.-_ as we witnessed during the vg:a_z_§. profits years between 1914 and .1,920,,,§]gult in 1932 we sholulidwh-ave " . gfar. more national wealtlf and far more individual wealth than we hg.d‘_in,.that year under our present 4' ’haphaz_ard, ‘methods of production distribution. . . , would be the task of the .Na- tional Economic -Council .of theJf,In- dustrial;-Commoinwealth to work out I a,__,‘ whicl; the lowe,r_inco,me " repipientsh-couldmhrece-ive a highe_r and th_iVg.her,.percentage of 9 the profits" of _until we had, , reached ,’ a minimum, income for a family of, let usfsay, $10,000 a, year.

The total national wealth of the United States, which was approximately 361 billion dollars in 1929, could presumably be raised to 660 billion dollars in 1944, and the total national! income, which was approximately 90 billion dollars in 1929,**) could be raised to: 140 billion dollars by 1944. A 10 per cent growth each year would mean an average income for every family in 1944 of about $4,000 a year. Our industrial economy would be kept prosperous busy supplying the needs of thirty million families with such a purchasing power. *3) Read Make Everybody Rich—ln- dustry’s New Goal by the author in CO1- laboration with Charles W.

Five hun- dred years of the gypsy violin, the cymbal and the old Turkish pipe—- the three instruments which have made the gypsies the national trou- bador of Hungary——are to be re- viewed at a series of Tzigane con- certs and musical contests begin- ning in April and ending on St. Stephen's Day, August 20th. For eighteen years the Tzigane Associa- tion has waited for this. The Tzi-x ganes were first admitted to Hun- gary in 1419, and the 500th anniver- sary of their admission was to have be-en celebrated in 1919. But one thing and another have postponed it from year to year. Now the cele- bration is to come off at last. It will be a national event, for the Tzigane is the national musician, as thoroughly a part of the nation- al life as the Csardas, Tokay an.d paprika. In Budapest, where the gypsies play in bars, cafés and road- houses, they are usually insignifi- cant stunted little men with nut brown faces, dressed much as other men dress——in black suits and derby hats—-but in the provinces, where they trudge from village to village with their violins tucked under their ' arms, they are more picturesque. For 500 years they have been court musicians in time of peace and have played the Hungarian armies into battle in time of war. Some of them have made fortunes, especially from about 1848 down to the turn of the century, when they became a Euro- pean fashion. But even the best known -of them have usually died in poverty. Since the war jazz music has hit them heavily, About 4,000 of the 6,000 Hungarian gypsies are out of work today. Page 15 _ Brazil Beats U.

THE TIME: 2:15 P.M. PART ONE It is a priceless privilege to be in the Sheepfold of Heaven, Where CHRIST our LORD FATHER DI- VINE, is the Great Shepherd, lead- ing and guiding the Sheep aright in- to the Pastures ““-or RIGHTEOUS- NESS, TRUTH and JUSTICE, where they can freely partake of the .ABUND'ANT Knowledge of GOD. The Good Shepherd knoweth His Sheep, and the Sheep knoweth their ‘ Shepherd. The Shepherd uses every precaution to care for His Sheep, but at the same time, HE is concerned in the interest and in the welfare of other Sheep whi-ch are not of this F-old; them also HE must bring in. ‘Thy shall hear His Voice, and shall come to the Call thereof, and there shall be One Fold, and one Shepherd. Because the Good Shepherd is ob- servant where the Sheep fail so to be, we see and note the careful scru- tiny of GOD, and how HE is mind- ful of every act or step that the Sheep would chance to make; hence, doors, hallways and all exit-s apparently were blocked, because of the Love of GOD, the Good Shepherd, HE spoke in Compassion to those who were pos- sibly concerned only in themselve-s, and in what they would term, “their .own rights,” to move down towards the end of the Dining Hall, that room might be made for those other -Sheep, who are not directly of this . Fold, but who were seeking to gain admittance in the Banqueting Hall. As this was amicably adjusted, one of the Angels continued her Praises to GOD FATHER DIVINE, in the -Song recorded, and then we listened -to this Beautiful MESS-AGE, from I the‘ Lips of the Ble-st RE- ; thank ATEEE» f\ \.I PEACE EVERYONE: (“Peace FATHER DEAR!” re- turned the multitude of voices.) I would like to -say to those who are blocking the hallways, the doorways and such like, please move around,- ‘and give others a chance to oome in. It is true, this is our Private Dining Room, but as our hearts and minds go ‘out for all people, visitors are welcome to come in, if they can get standing room. For this cause we request our Co-workers and those who are standing, if they are not do- ing anything, to move around and give others a chance to enter.

The re- action of such a version, i_t may bring some sort of a result, whether it is desirable or undesirable; I just thought to say, it may sound a lit- tle strange to listen to people, to hear- you say: “I love That BODY..” It may sound a. little radical and fanat- ical and it may be also an expression of ignorance to thousands of hearers, when you are stressing the PERSON- AL BODY, but it is written: ‘-"‘For this cause, many are sick- ly among you, and some sleep, not discerning the BODY of CHRIST.” HISTORY MUST REPEAT ITSELF The belief in the P-ersoniﬂcation of- GOD is the Puriﬁcation of your body.

PEACE EVERYONE: (“Peace FATHER DEAR!” enthu- siastically greeted the mass Assem- bly. GOOD HEALTH! GOOD WILL and a GOOD APPETITE for every- body. Good Manners and Good Be- haviour, ALL Wisdom, ALL Knowl- edge and ALL Understanding, ALL Success and ALL Prosperity to the in- habitants of the earth, I AM freely bringing. I bring all of these Bless- ings into consideration, and as you consider the signiﬁcance of the Con- sciousness of GOD’S PRESENCE, such a conscious recognition will es- tablish that in your experience. For this cause, we are rejoicing, and we are exceedingly glad. At this par- ticular juncture, I will say as I have often said, we have in -our midst this Afternoon visitors from the different parts of the Globe; we are always pleased to have visiting friends, mat- ters not from whence they -come, For this cause at times, we must cal_l check on our individual selves, and allow others to have a chance to get in. MANY FILLED ,. WITH ENTHUSIASM At certain times of the year, when Jesus as a Person was on earth, there was a Pool, and the Angel came down and troubled the water;—~but at times, there were so many around the Pool, that those who were impo- tent, lame and afflicted and who needed the healings 'of the Water, they did not have the privilege to get in- to the Pool, ‘because of the _ press that was around about the Pool. So it is in our present experience an-d daily occurrence,-—-we find there are so hiany of us filled with enthusiasm, with joy and with peaee and with\\. happiness, until our Souls are filled an-d thrilled With the Spirit of Com- positions, of Songs, of Poems, -of melodies of the different types or tones, until we do not give others a. chance to step into'the Pool and re- ceive their Blessings, even as those_,..,.»« of you have received y-ours. I CLEAR AND FREE DELIVERANCE Remember, every individual moving volitionally, is the only hope of his Redemption. "I have stressed from time to time, the significance of one allowing a chick to come out of the shell before you take a hold of it, that the little chick might be strong enough to meet the conditions of the outer life after he is hatched out. If you take him out yourself before ‘he gets out, he will not be strong enough to stand the outer World that will surround him. So it is with a child of GOD, each and every indi- vidual should move volitionally, and should be governed by his or her ‘highest intuition, and if they are per- sistent in their ambition, they will ‘break the shell of mortal limitation, and have a clear and a free deliver- ance, even as you have from all ma- terialism. " » Even as the chick leaves the shell and the skin of the egg behind, even so will you leave all materialism and the mortal versions of men behind,’ and will revel into the Glorious Lib- erty of the Sons of GOD, if you will but move volitionally and answer his immediate Call. “Behold I stand at -the Door and knock; if any man hears My Voice and open the Door, I will come in to him, and will sup with him,” said HE, “and the feast shall be an everlasting one.” As an abstract expression and a visible, tangible -manifestation of the- Sip and the Sup with the SAVIOUR, this is fulfilled at this Banquet Table,. not only fulfilled weekly, but daily as a common occurrence, no longer to ‘be discerned nor thought upon as some special Feast Day, but as Solo- mon declared on one occasion; “And HE led me up to the Banqueting House, and His Banner -over us is love.” LOVE or GOD_ CONTROLS ALL This _is our iexperience , daily. We are._1ed inito the ipﬁafiquetingl-Ial‘l, and L Page 20 ‘ a 1911.9. diiferenthanqueting. Halls Where- soever I AM,‘ and the ‘Love of GOD controls us all, by the Spirit of the »actual PRESENCE, and by the Re- cognition of it. All of us recognize GOD as being PRESENT, and all of us are conscious of it; ‘therefore, by being conscious of GOD’S "Actual PRESENCE, GOD Works and Acts accordingly, in answer to our simplest desire. Oh! it is a privilege to realize Prayer is not a multitude of words, especially, openly spoken, but Prayer is the heart’s sincere desire, unutter- ed and unexpressed, You need not attempt to try to express the Prayer, but simply trust, and then HE is there. Your simplest request is a Prayer. If your requests in sincerity be in silence, even unheard by your- . self as a person, your Prayers are heard and ‘answered . . . Why is it the Religious World has ‘failed to ob- serve the significance of “Silent Pray- er?” They have failed to observe the keynote of Salvation, the «only I-I‘-OPE of their REDEMPTION, be- cause they fail to bring themselves ‘into subjection to the Life and the Teaching of Jesus. If they would have brought themselves into sub- jection to the Life and the Teaching of Jesus, and lived it and expressed it through reiteration, they too, as «well as you, would have been an out- ward expression, as they reincarnated -it, and would have beco-me to be the personification of it.

By this,tmankind shall even- tually see the reality of that Eternal See-d;’ the fruit of it comes forth in- to expression as was sown in the hearts and lives of millions in the Life of JESUS as the Sample and as the Example. The Example was -put forth into expression, that you might copy after the Fashion "by actually reiterating. You are not only at Reiterator in words, but in actions, for we speak in the language -of the acts and of the actions of humanity; we speak in the language" of the divers Reli- gions, after their respective Reli- -giousv language, that teach and every individual in that respective Religion might understand it. So it is when we speak from the different angles of expression as did the Apostle at the Day of Pentecost, when they re- ceived of the Holy Ghost; theyispake all in -other Tongues, in the different languages of those who were in and around Jerusalem.

Now I will try to translate that in English, or give a gist of the mean- ing. In poor English I might say: “Whenever and wheres-oever there is . abuse and ‘mis-use of the true Reli; gion, the true Spirit and the TRUTH itself, “I” that is GOD, I need con- nect myself amongst my people to remove that Religious Spirit, and substitute in its place the true Reli- gion of Love and Peace, and Univer-~ sal 'Br0ther.” _ I am ashamed to say that it has been so long for me to recognize the PRESENCE Of FATHER DIVINE’S Spirit and Mission right in this City. The little that I have read and I have heard from “friends, reminded me over and over again of this same old verse. The world needed another Incarnation of that Great ‘Spirit to teach us who are going further from the True Path, from the Path of Love, Peace and Brotherhood,-—to show us the right Path, and I am glad to say that in this right ti-me, we have found that Faith, I was talking a little while ago with FATHER DIVINE about my- self, and it did not take but a min- ute for HIM to remind me of my own follies. That is to say, I was placing too much importance on my- self, and if I were the one who was going to do great things in my coun- try;—and how quickly 'HE._-‘showed me it. I fully realized, and I ‘fully realize now as I am at thisfl‘-able, that the reason I did not come in -contact with this Great Soul, was be- cause I was not prepared myself. I was depending too much on me.‘ I do not think I will go any fur- ther. I believe you all, GOD'S chil- dren realize what my feelings are. All that I will hope now, is the Bless- ing from HIM,—and that I will be able to guide myself to some service to humanity.

The ideal song of praise is one; that springs spontaneously from the Spirit; but if we have allowed our vibrations to lower, our ﬁrst effort must be to raise them, and one can do that by choosing less consecrated songs. For instance, one can usually sing, “We don't have to worry,” or “I’ll keep HIM in my mind," or hunt around until we ﬁnd one that does ring true to us and keep at it until our vibrations are raised, when the S-pirit will take charge and “rejoice Beautiful Furs COATS , THER DIVINE Peace Mission at _ ;:.»r.;,-H1424‘ North 24th Street, this city, has - “been blessed with a beautiful elec- in the LORD” for us. ,, Another way of raising the vibra- tric sign, telling of FATHER’S Name and Work. The children from this __extension were also blessed to visit the Ludlow Street and Haverford Avenue extensions, where there was “Love, Joy, Peace, Good Manners and Good Appetite.” We thank FATHER for the blessings-for Joy, Love, Sun- shi-ne, Happiness and Peace. ‘F’ This extension is also thanking FA- ‘ THER for healing a sister of the dropsy. .On Sunday afternoon the followers at this mission cooperated with those at the extension at 528 South 16th Street; 4 FATHER’S Message in the SPOKEN -WORD of April 12th, was ‘read by" the recording secretary, Sis- ter John-son. Later Sister Patience ' read ‘FATHER'S Message. We thank FATHER for a new brother who tes- » ii";Wi‘iiii‘iéac'li.i.,itliat’ he wanted to know GOD. The same day we attended the g ‘meeting at the North‘ Philadelphia Extension, where FATHER'S Mes- sage from the SPOKEN WORD was ‘read. - ' FATHER is ‘blessing Rev. George 0. Gaines t-o deliver HIS Message ‘from time to time, In a recent in- , spiration he said: “We thank FATHER a thousand tions is to sing our difﬁculty to HIM. It does not matter how crude the words and melody may be to start with——HE will respond and will bring them and us into harmony_ In this case we can sing to an improvised tune«—-or any melody or pseudo-mel- ody: “FATHER, I want to praise YOU; FATHER, help me to praise YOU; FATHER, teach me to praise YOU,” and it will get the answer. Incidentally, this applies to every dif-If " ﬁculty. _ Shortly after I heard -of FATHER, I read that HE wished us to be prac- tical, and I had always hated any form of practical work, especially housework. I asked a Sister who had just come back from New York, if I should hurl myself into practical things. She said, “Just make up a song about it‘ and FATHER will help you”~and HE surelyv did. For some days I went around singing, “FA- THER'S helping me to do my house- work—FATHER’S making me enjoy my housework”—not poetry, but it was efficacious, Of course, all our difﬁculties would be over could we but realize that Our Beloved SAVIOUR, FATHER DIVINE, GOD ALMIGHTY, is all there is and therefore there is noth- ing but Joy, Love, Success, Prosper-~ suns .

EXCERPTS OF MESSAGE IN FATHER’S OFFICE AFTER HIS RETURN FROM COURT, FRIDAY, APRIL TWENTY—THIRD, 1937 A.D.F.D. ABOUT NOON-DAY. After some mention had been made of the one who was once known as Faithful Mary, concerning the things which she had been saying, and con- cerning what had been said relative to her over the Radio Broadcasting Sys- tem and the Press, FATHER said: “-It was as the Spirit was saying, after the people, the Press and the Radio Broadcasts were saying‘ what Faithful said concerning what I had said to he-r in reference to giving up "her property; I say if anyone is trying to double-cross ME like they would double-cross a man, they are only double- crossing themselves,—My Spirit will take care of everything. I «do not even have to raise My Voice as far as doing anything, I do not have to do a thing,—if they are double-crossing, or if they think they are double-crossing ME, they are double-crossing their own life_ It is indeed wonderful! It is not a matter of anything that I may do or say as a Person, but any person who tries to double-cross ME as they would a man, they are »double-crossing their own 1ife,——that life which is in them. If anybody compromises with her, or even sympathizes with her, why they are under the same curse, for’ as .1 say, if anybody can ‘double-cross ME, they can double- cross their own life too. There are plenty of bodies who say they are going to die anyhow; there- fore, everything that sympathizes with her, everything that cooperates with her, everything that harmonizes with her, it shall go down with her, because , there is nobody ever forgiven who sins against the Holy Ghost in con- ﬂicting us. That was just a slight sketch and a reﬂ-ectioln to let you see as I did say last ’night,—I said, “I do not believe I‘ want to go out until someone sees something, because then they will know I AM not doing anything Personally.” It is just like it was with Judge Smith that time,——-I did not want to comes»; out, I wanted the work to be done, then they would know I was not doing anything Personally, , You know these things are true by the result that will follow, see! That is the mystery, and as I said, if the results prove that she said it, (FATHER at this point makes reference to the inquiry of a telephone call, which one of the Angels asks concerning why and how could she do such), why then that will be suﬂicient evidence. Of course, even in this little sketch, that is only a little sketch. who sat with her, zantd knows if it is true.” I wanted her to‘ do by S. I (FA— ', THER looking -at one of the brothers, Mr. Gottlieb, said:) “There stands one Page 4 those who were working faithfully, —working for her as «those who were working -for ME,—I felt that she should not take all of the money of the faithful Followers and take it for herself, because as I said, that is why MY BODY was sacriﬁed thirty-two ‘times in lynch mobs, when I felt that the people were mistreating those -who were under them, you see. I was willing to sacriﬁce MY BODY, lbecause stirred ME up,—such as that. INVESTIGATIONS PROVE FATHER CLAIMS NOTHING If she made «those statements that the press say, and that the news says, why it was ‘because she knew I did not want anything, because it is evi- dently known I claim not a thing, not -even. to an automobile. She knows «that. Everybody knows that, be- cause these Investigation-s have proven it, If she said I wanted it, it was because she wanted to keep it , for herself. She wanted to take My NAME and .-use it selﬁshly. (Someone sp-oke up -and said, “FA- THEE, You «could tell that what she said, was -not her composition. It was someone else’s thought. She must have allowed someone t-o dic- tate it to her.) .(A Brother .rel=at_ed a story of some dealing with the one who was known as Faithful Mary at one time, stat- ‘ ing how unfair she had been in her dealings with him, To this ‘FATHER _rema.rked.-) It is Wonderful! GOD is after RIGHTEOU SN ESS, TRUTH and JUSTICE, and My Spirit w-ill not tol- erate anything -else. As I said, it does not want to get in bodies and .-act violently, because My -Spirit will ﬁght the Battle .in every way. There are so many out there in the world, who have come from -the underworld who may lose control of themselves , ipersonally. I don't want them to do it, yet My Spirit takes care of the Situation in My Own Individuality; hence, lot My Spirit ﬁght your bat- itle. See! that is the idea,—'but it ‘ . really stirs ME up at times, and if I were not Who I AM, I could not oon- trol Myself, but for the NAME’S Sake I bring Myself into subjection to _£IGI-ITEOUSN-EStS in-stead 201:‘ vio- lence, ansd to My lspiriiz of alibediencs. : . i “sit thou at-Mygalgeht Hand, un- was The “SPOKEN WORD” til I make thine enemies thy foot- stoo ,” and if you do that, My Spirit will ﬁght every battle in reality, and not “.maybe,”—-But when you double-cross ME, as you may «think, it is not I Who has been double-crossed, but it is you in reality, and not “maybe.” SUPPRESISED SPIRIT FINDS It -does not have to rise in bodies, because when you suppress it, the re—action of it may be in some other body of violence. It will come out some other way, but there will have -to be an ‘outlet for it, don’t you seer That is the mystery. It is the same as the Spirit ro-se in some of the children the other day to smash the cameras of those in High Falls, and we suppressed it, and the -children didn’t get any relief immediately; but after that, they got relief. Now where did that spirit go? It had gone men bodies who were «charged -with assault and %battery to smash the cameras. The spirit went into J. P. Morgan. If we Suippress it and bring our bodies -into subjection, the Spirit -of violence will have an outlet in some way -of that wicked Spirit. We do not have to fight for ourselves. See! That is the mystery of -suppressing outbursts that may rise in us in Righteous Indignation. Suppress it, and it won’t have to come out, but it will come out in another way. There must .be some outlet for these vibrations, and it was wonierful! Right after we suppressed that Righteous In-dignation and spirit of resentment for RIGHTEOUSNESS’ sake in High Falls—didn’t smash the camera, and didn’t beat them up, it came out in someone who supposed to do it. We don't have to do it, because if’ it must be done, it will be done. THE LAMB AND THE GOAT STORY When the lamb and ‘the goat were crossing a board walk, you remem- ber -that story. Oh! it is wonder- ful! When they were crossing the board-walk, and each one coming in the opposite direction, the lamb had to get down by suppression, he could express himself in violence and in ‘me act of destruction, sforhe the Lamb-‘Spirit, -therefore, he could Tuesday, April 27th, 193* not express Violence; therefore, suppressed the spirit of passion and‘: ‘rebellion, and it got in another one i_ just like the» one in opposition’ to’, him. See! That is the mystery of 1‘, “The wicked shall slay the wicked.” They will meet with their own kind '7 right out lthere,—-right after that, L’. they are going to meet someone who will,, throw -them down. That is the?- ’ mystery. The goat he met with his own kind, ‘therefore, each one butted the other one overboard. ‘ Now the other story is also well f worth considering for every last, one 9 of you under‘ the Sound of My Voice,’ even to the Attorneys, Mr. Kranzleur and Mr. Madison, “Get all you want, but don't forget the Best.” With all ' of our legalization and politicalismf equalization and ' analyzation 5 and all of our information, we may gain or seek from the material or and intellectual or the social or lrna-the- matical or even legal .side of life, do -not forget the Best. Don’t forget the best. It is wonderful. The Truth shall cover the Uni- verse. It shall fill all space and be absent from none. Oh! it is wonder- ful! ‘ American Doomed by Hitler May Escape Headsman’s Axe Berlin, April 26 (FDP).-—S-pokes- men in high Nazi circles said to- night that it was doubtful that the American citizen, Hjelmer Hirsch, ever would be executed by a German headsman. He faces death on a high treason conviction. The charge was said t=o have resulted from the dis- covery of a large quantity f ex- plosives in his possession. ' Various rumors have spoken of a plot to assassinate ‘Chancellor Hitler. The 21-year old prisoner was visited today by American Embassy au»:tilor- ities at Berlin after in-structionss were received from the State De- partment at Washington. The Amer- can Embassy was told to spare no effort to save» the. life -of the young American citizen. It was said in official circles to- night that Hirsch stands better than an even chance t-o escape the heads- man's block. The Ministers ‘have reportedly _already_ received orders , from mianoellor E-Iitlor to eemmute the sentence to life ‘imprisonment. ‘pi-ii 27th, 1937 The “SPOKEN WORD’ Gooistovh By STEPHEN BLISS ,_l , While the confusion was at its A height in fron.t of the New York I guartere of FATHER DIVINE’S Mission last Monday night a fit wart “angel” strode in among ﬁe struggling men on the sidewalk, sed his arm in a commanding ges- tore, brought it down in a gesture -more commanding and roare~d—— “PEACE!” . j Instantly there was not only a fhhange in the atmospher-e, but a -phange of -motion, a change -of emo- jfpon, a change, in other words, from strife to peace, from what had come Qmpleasantly near to being hatred to “fnomething like the beginnings of love. . 35,- ‘George Lansbury, .the grea-t Brit- ’, : Labor leader and paciﬁst, coined phrase while on his recent peace ‘tour of the United States which --«become -the outstanding slogan or peace activities all over the world. ; - »declared———“There is no Christian F ay to kill a man!” If the nations of “Chris-tendom” ‘have any wish to maintain their sta- as Christian, this means an end Ag. war, as it ‘means an end to duel- and «to capital punishment. «That ought to go down among the "j‘_ * 'oms ’ from henceforth—- “THERE IS NO CHRISTIAN ; .AY TO KILL A MAN!” 7-_ Now there is a corresponding ax- ‘ , just as clear and unmistakable *’_é;slthat. If the ﬁrst is an axiom, so '2. the -second——- “There is no Christian way _'ke a. man.” If you strike a man-——in that mo- gpent, in that motion you cease to _;,it-_ a. Christian. ‘7._ It is bewilderingly strange, incom- , ehensible -that there should even be E y question, any uncertain-ty, any fisgivlng, any debate about this. If you strike a man, while you are htrikmg him you simply are not a f‘ ristian; you are not following a st; you are not obeying Christ. Or maybe some Christians ca;n’t But they must have heard the tian gospel, the Christian prin- ' pier they would not call them- ‘0l.N-‘i5Fi8v115- . ‘get the matter cl-early to officially before the house, suppose we put the words «down again, just exactly as HE spoke them long ago. Matt. 5:39: “But I say unto you that ye resist not evil; but whosoever .shall smite thee on thy right cheek, turn to hi-m the other also.” Luke 6:29: “And unto him that smiteth thee on the one cheek, turn to him -the other also-.” And John, who has been called “‘the Beloved Disciple” and who seems to have caught rather more sharply than -the rest the spirit of JESUS on these matters, devotes many passages in his ﬁrst Epistle to amplifying and emphasizing -the same message, “He that saith he is in the light, and hateth his brother, is in dark- ness even until now. He that loveth his brother abi-deth in. -the light and there is n-one occasion of stumbling in him. But he that 'hateth his brother is in darkness and walketh in darkness -and knoweth not whither he goeth, -because that darkness hath blinded his eyes.” “My little children, let us not love in w-ord, neither in tongue, but in «deed and in truth.” “Beloved, let us love one another; for love is of GOD; and everyone that loveth is born. of GOD and know- eth GOD. He that loveth not know- eth not GOD, for GOD IS DOVE.” “Beloved, if GOD so loved us, we ought also to love one ano.ther.=~If we love one another, GOD dwelleth in us and HIS Love is perfected in us.” “And we have known and believed the love that GOD hath to us. GOD IS LOVE. And he that dwelleth in Love -dwelleth in GOD, and GOD in him.” . And here is an exceedingly inter- esting one: “If a «man say I love GOD and hat- eth his ‘brother he is a liar. For he that loveth not his brother whom he hath seen, how can he love GOD whom he hath not seen? And this commandment we have from HIM, that he who loveth GOD love his brother also.” "we might go through the letters . of Paul and ﬁnd many bea.uti.ful pas- Page 5 sages saying this‘ same thing, His inspired ‘thirteenth chapter of First -Corinthians is considered the most perfect -treatise on love ever written. And in the 10th ver-se of the 13th chapter of Romans he sums up the whole thing againv-“Love worketh no ill to his neighbor, therefore love is the fulﬁlling of the law.” There have been cases in which, in extreme circumstances Christians who had no really remarkable claim to sainthood have come out positive- ly for this essential Christ princi- ple. When President McKinley was mortally wounded by -an assassin at Buffalo in 1921, he called out, when friends and bystanders -closed in roughly on the man who had shot the President——“Don’t hurt him!” Then he breathed the words, “Nearer, my GOD, to THEE!”—and soon after died. JESUS, the supreme Love Master, the Way—shower, Whom FATHER DI- . VI-NE is always commanding us to follow and obey, when the test came to "HIM, prayed for HIS murderers,- “FATHER, forgive them; they kn-ow not what they do.” '. John Wesley also was pretty clear headed about this matter. As we all know his, major contribution to Christian doctrine was the principle of what he called “Christian Perfec- tion_” He used various Scriptural terms for this experience which he taught steadily, c-onsistently through- ' out the years of his l-ong ministry. He called it also “Entire Sanctific-a- tion,” using the word “entire” for it be-cause all theologians agree that the work of ‘Sanctiﬁcation begins at conversion, or regeneration. So he added the word “entire” to describe the experience he taugh:t—-and there are many Scriptural warrants for that; for instance, 1. Thessalonians 5:23, “And the very GOD of Peace sanctify you wholly.” called the experience, “Perfect Love,” in line with one of the passages from I. John—“In him verily is the love of GOD perfected.” And in one sublime passage John Wesley ehiwmself summed the whole matter up-——“He that seeks anything other than love, or anything higher than love goes wide of the mark.” It is no accident that the healthi- est, most vigorous, dynamic. loran_ch- es of the Christian church. today are the Pentecostal churches, which teach’ ’ (Con-tiniu-ed’ . ongpagej. my Wesley also . it Page 60 I irrhe “SPOKEN wonn" H‘ ‘ CALIFORNIA METAPHYSICIAN ENDORSES FATHER DIVINE . The following letter written by a ‘ well known teacher of metaphysics on the Paciﬁc Coast was -sent to one iof his former pupils. Mr, Jackson, the writer, formerly an associate of the editor of the SPOKEN WORD, feeling that the letter would be of special interest at this particular mo- ment in the Work of FATHER DI- VINE’S Peace Mission movement, has -sent a copy of it to Mr. Honaeel and he is glad to share it here with all our readers. ' - The letter, written by Mr. O. W. Jackson, of Boulder Creek, Santa Cruz County, California, follows: Dear Friend:—Your letter came a few days ago, but as we were busily engaged in getting -our Oakland home ‘ready for renting—painting and re- modeling to bring the interior up '00 date——I have waited until we are, again in Boulder Creek to answer it in length, Its contents surprised me greatly. The statements made concerning FA- THER DIVINE see-m very ridiculous and perhaps pitiful to one who has made a study of FATHER DIVINE and His Works. No human ‘being since the begin- ning of so-called time, has ever «done the mighty Works that He has been doing for many years past. Healing the sick, raising the dead, restoring sight to the blind, hearing to the deaf, prosperity t-o the poverty strick- en, success to the failures, happiness and peace to the grief stricken and anxious, honesty to the dishonest, causing all of His true followers to pay their just debts no matter how long standing, and to restore all sto- len goods or pay for the same, teach- ing chastity and purity, love and ‘kindness to those to whom these qualities were unknown, reforming the drunkard, the liar and thief, giv- ing‘ -employment to the down and out, ‘feeding -the hungry, clothing the nak- ed, causing many thousands to go to school to study and become good and ',~.loyal ‘citizens and useful members of ‘g . ii society. ‘ it ‘His -‘Work appeals to the 5-so-c_a.ll_,ed isgfeatestg world well asyto the lowest and most degraded -and criminal. He is forever giving, but does not Himself accept a single penny from any human being. ‘He does not need to, for the Mighty -Resources of the Giver of All GOOD are subject to His command, H-e has bought and paid cash for many thousand acres of the choicest land in New York State, and one of His latest buy.s—I will quote from “T-he ,Spoken Word”—“Both FA- THER and Mr. Madison mentioned a recent large purchase of property in Ulster County. The purchase of Greenkill Park resort hotel and sport center, famed as the training quar- ters of Max Schmeling, just outside of Kingston, has been the source of much publicity in th-e Ulster County press in recent days. This park, public mention of which was ﬁrst made at the Mecca Arena Easter demonstration, is said to be ﬁve miles around. It contains -a swimming lake, tennis -courts, ball parks, a golf course and a large number of six and eight room cottages» as well as smaller bungalows and a very large hotel said to accommodate about .sev- en hundred persons. The property fronts on a ‘small river.” 'All this is for His "followers, and those who wish to come into this haven of happiness and harmonious surroundings, Each individual can have title free to land on which to build a home or to farm. As I un- derstand, all work together on -a co- operative basis, and the "inhabitants of this ‘Kingdom are the happiest peo- ple upon earth today. The men have their own apartments, and the wom- en their, and gathering together at meals and their joyful services, praising the FATHER whom they claim is GOD——and with good rea- son——and longing for His frequent trips when H-e tells them of great things yet to be unfolded for hu- manity. Thank you FATHER. FA- THER DIVINE works through those who accept ‘Him whole-heartedly and strive t-o live the “evangelical llfe,.?j_ . and _'._thus brings suc'c.ees,. health, hap- No wonder His followers love He teaches them to “cleanse the senses within” to love the good 0, " To be -kindly considerate one -to ‘ other, generous -and patient, He teaches them to befearless ,, trustful, looking to Him alone f the fulﬁllment of every good desi He is the fulﬁllment of all o«,§‘_.’ ecy, and‘is HE that was to come. His Extensions -already cover" Earth. In your city there are a n ber of His “Peace Missions" =;. places where the ﬁnest meals 9." served at from 10 to 15 cents, a better than the average meal ate dollar in hotels, and restaurants; ,, Some people object to the extrav- agant rejoicing of His followers as /7. they sing and shout in their great joy of release from former conditions, Why object to this? Did you ever attend a baseball game and listen to the mob rooting for the home team? Or a political -gathering over the mention of the name of their favorite -candidate ? Some people are hard to please when things don't suit their sense of things. Some people are shocked because He demands the segregation of the sexes, and is severe upon sensuality and lewdness or the gratiﬁcation of the carnal senses. Those same people claim t-o_ follow Christ Jesus, and FATHER DIVINE asks of His followers to follow Christ, and live the life that Jesus taught that we Must follow to gain the “Kingdom within,” here and now. Jesus fed -a number _,«' of thousand people at one time. {One of FA- THER’S followers has fed with free meals nearly 100,000 during the year 1936, and glorious banquets several times a dayhave been -going on now for many years, and all at FATHER’S tables free. FATHER gives freely from His great a‘bundan'~ce, but never receives a penny for His giving, It is ‘FREE to all, “Come unto me all ye that la-' bor and are heavy laden, and “II-ef"will give you rest)’. And"-don’-t forget it,.. 1 f You get what, 1;s»,co:mz:gi1,bo,..>*§a11,.. i /“s >, Many come to Him for the “loaves 5:‘, d ﬁshes,” thinking to fall in for a :5 of idleness and ‘uselessness, be- iéxéme dissatisﬁed when they ﬁnd what :7,i_'s'.i—required of them to remain in the .\Kingdom, and go out ﬁlled with lies ’g _‘d contumely, -and the devilish ele- ;‘ment in mortal mind will invent all ‘fing to injure -this great movement, '_ but only destroy themselves. f Up to date it is claimed that over \" 32,000,000 are now believers and fol- , lowers of FATHER DIVINE. He is so gentle, so kind and con- ;‘ siderate, so generous, no wonder -they 7Q love Him so. I do, and unquestion- ably believe in Him as Christ in the , FATHER degree—The WORD made Flesh—-now come to redeem the , World, and establish His Kingdom “on earth as it is in Heaven.” I r, I -«.»:ve never seen His ‘Kingdom “on rth as it is in Heaven.” I have | gver seen His personal body, but 1‘; ize that as Principle He is “c1os- ,' than breathing, nearer than hands id feet”——-Omniscient, -Omnipresent fa Omnipotent. Come to stay, to gn in the hearts of men as fast I they accept Him for what He is, }We are now in another day and _.‘v things are rapidly giving place the new. The Scripture is ful- ,_ ed, Thy kingdom is come. The d of the (material) world is at hand Thank the FATHER! Many wonder why one who for so ,-- any years was a teacher and prac- tioner in Metaphysics, and appar- ,u doing good work in he-aling the ,_ and the sinners; -should take up .th FATHER DIVINE, and “Seek "r the crumbs .that fall from -the ‘ter’s table.” ‘,1 am deeply grateful to the teach- , ': who so carefully taught me what "ey knew of Truth, but I was al- if I 3 looking for perfection in each them. Taking Jesus the Christ an example, I looked -for contin- "s and instantaneous healing of “Be who in faith came for treat- 4 t. -_. hen those who to me are almost 3, failed to reach the demonstra- . .~ of our -great example-Christ ” -s—-I became dissatisﬁed, and }- of the method took possession , y mentality. -' ' _ ,- - e time ago, I found that many _ . -best -students had turned -to r- in teaching. of FATHER DIVINE. ‘ 4 In 4 *‘=“inanner of hateful imaginations hop- , The “SPOKEN worm" who His followers claimed .to be GOD. Quite a few of them had gone to _ New York to learn more of Him, and some of them stayed there for six months or more, and returning here with glowing tales of their ex- periences. These people were all above the average in education, and not easily -swayed or swept off their feet by bunc-ombe and wild state- ments. So I began a thorough in- vestigation, for I knew how that the Master had come, “with signs fol- lowing.” Thank the FATHER! The thought of race or color meant noth- ing to me, for I knew that One GOD meant One FATHER or Creator, therefore we were all one great fam- ily of brethren GOD ‘being our FA- THER and the One and Only Cause of our being. So, -are we not all alike? So as -this is so, we are Heirs of GOD and as heirs entitled to all of the abundance «of Good He has prepared for us. Can't you begin to see how foolish it is to live in the fear of death, when our FATHER is Life Itself? How silly to lack any good thing, when our loving FA- THER has given us as -our birth- right every possible good thing, here and now? We have been -taught all this for many years, why -do we fail to get results, you ask? GOD is Principle, to be‘ utilized through positive right thinking and acting (living), We are like some students "in mathematics weeping because the principle of ma- thematics will not work our examples for us, when it is our «duty and priv- . ilege to utilize «and apply ‘all of its laws and rules to get our -correct an- swers. It is not the fault of the principle of mathematics if we fail -to get a correct‘ answer, for we know there is a ﬂaw in our work and we have to go carefully over our work to ﬁnd the mistake. So with GOD'S Laws. If we violate them, we must suffer the consequences until the false thinking and acting are cor- rected——“Sin is punished -so long, as the sin lasts.” All real and true thinking is Posi- tive thinking. All evil and untrue thinking is negative thinking. So positive thinking is GOD (-Good) thinking, while negative thinking is the other fellow’.s thinking So be positive not negative, and then you will not fail in getting results.

Jellyfish Berkeley, Calif.——Life in fairly com- plex form existed on earth nearly a billion years ago. Such is the evi- dence of a jellyﬁsh fossil found in lower Algonkian rocks at the bottom of the Grand Canyon -of Arizona, and reported to Science by Dr. C. E. Van Gundy of the University of Califor- ‘nia. The fossil consisted of an imprint seven inches in diameter, in ﬁne- grained sandstone. It is remarkable to ﬁnd a jellyﬁsh fossil in rocks of any age because the extremely un- substantial ﬂesh of these creatures -disappears so quickly_ But to ﬁnd such an impression in rocks that may be anywhere from 600,000 to more than 900,000 years old, where life-evidences of any kind are almost unknown, constitutes a scientiﬁc rec- ord, Nazis Open Air War On Soviet Propaganda Berlin, Apr. 26.—Germa.n radio sta- tions began an air wave war against Communist propaganda stations to- day. Angered by recent broadcasts giv- ing a rosy picture of conditions in Russia, authorities started counter- broadcasts.

Address delivered on the radio from Sydney, Australia, and published in “The Standard,” organ of the Henry George League -of New South Wales. By Bertha E. Phelps 0 ‘,‘Health, wealth and happiness-— our splendid wool gives warmth to were among the good Wishes expressed at Christ- mas, and now it is for us to try and , bring about this happy state of affairs. For health, V let me recommend wide, open spaces and the interest- ing work which brings satisfaction tohomemakers doing their own bit of pioneering. Wealth is, as you know, not money, but food, clothes and other necessary things, such as cattle, .:‘sheep, wheat, and so on, and these we should be producing in‘ enorm- ous quantities, for it is all rubbish to talk of over-production while, in any part of the world, our fellow creatures are hungry and cold. We should break down our un- Christian tariff barriers, and open our markets to all who need our goods—Austra1ia cannot expect to compete with ‘older countries in manufactured‘ articles, but, in raw ‘materials we can do most useful Work. All Should Have Right to Use Raw Materials Peace is so essential to progress that we ought to try our hardest to secure it. We ought to acknowl- edge the rights of others to the raw materials without which they are cruelly hampered, and which we have no right to deny to them. Of course, the needs of the ‘British Em- pire naturally come first, but, aft- er supplying these, there should be no restrictions on our other - cus- tomers seeking raw materials. We should buy and sell inafriend- ly-’way, without ‘too much Govern- ment interference. “An’ man to man the World o'er should brithers be an’ a’ ~that”—What riches there are this world, and what a variety of things we can have, if We pro- ‘dries ‘plenty -and buy and sell free- I"§e’t'* us, who live in a. hojt. climate, silk?8‘;. «and-V’ cottons, while those in colder countries, and let us, who live inland, eat more imported fish, rice and light foodstuffs,while our surplus beef and mutton gives strength to toilers in other lands. Let us remember that over fifty of the nations in the League have voted for free trade as a means to Peace. ,,-g No Jealousy or Rivalry Our great unused tracts of land are a temptation to people in over- crowded countries, who must think we are like the dog in the manger, and I want to urge all Australians to bring pressure to bear on our Governments——-and, insist on these lands being opened for settlement at once, and in the right Way. The Barkly Tablelands Syndicate offered to make roads, ports, etc., if the ‘Federal Government would lend them a million pounds, and give them 60 ‘years leases of hun- dreds of square miles of land each. We dare not Wait 60 years for these necessary improvemen‘ts—-improve- ments that must be accomplished before settlers can make a living. And one would be s-orry to see the needs 'of Darwin and the cattle industry there neglected. Both out- lets are needed and there should not be any jealousy or hateful rivalry. Millions and millions -are being spent in and around our cities on unpro- ductive work, while the country land is negI_ected like a Cinderella. Just a few of those millions would pay for water-conservation,» much-needed roads, ports, meatworks, etc., work that should be begun at ‘once and that would give employment to thou- sands of men, who now are crowded in cities. Walking the Fat Off In a -splendid phamphlet last year, ‘Captain C. L. A. Abbott told ‘hf the rich lands of the Barkly‘ Table- lands, n'o'wn-held by”’a few ‘squatters - and’ companies, whose» efforts are " crippled ‘by, want, of transporthfor . their»ca’.ttle have to walk to mar . over 1,000 miles away-—Walkin many months and walking the fa off themselves. ‘ T- This is wasteful and expensive?’ and only men of wealth could man ; age under the circumstances, and, as we Want the Barkly Tablelands} to support a large population, we should alter the circumstances, ‘_ first of all making an all-weather-V? road right up the centre to a port 1" on a navigable river, the Macarthur’. Stock could be A ish Isles. _ The money .spent on one big bat- tleship ‘would accomplish marvelsif spent in this way, and think of the": real wealth that would be produced, ‘ and how Australia’s back door would 1; be guarded by the prosperous set- ' tlers in the North-—but We dare not ‘ wait 60 years longer. Scheme for Redeeming Arid Land In last month's “Pasto.ralist” (Brisbane), x where the Burdekin does, and i would not be difficult to cut throug the watershed, make a “Burrin'juck1’? in the Burdekin, and divert its sur-of plus water into the Thompson and let it flow down to Cooper’s Creek- and then to Lake Eyre, making sef-"C eral thousands of miles of front-“ age land habitable and productive.-, Similar works could be done to con-:‘{ nect other Eastern and Western} rivers. Because it has been neglected” parts of the interior are spoken o as “desert, having only 10 inchesof rain a year,” but that is the fell fall at Rosewortlly College, nea- Adelaide, where young men r""“‘ taught how to farm scientific and they grow htindredssof ton" stuff pforfhay an";d.?f'l. ‘Te, taken there suitable motor lorries in fewer days :1 than it took them months to walk to market—they would be put in resting paddocks, and then takenby boat to the meatworks at Vanderlin Island;-from which the chilled car-.~ cases would go to our natural mar- kets in the East: India, Java, China and Japan, as well as to the Brit- . “Graphite” suggests a» splendid scheme for redeeming much of our arid land. It is this:——'I‘he } Burdekin, a coastal river in Queens- "7 land, rises in country with an aver— 5 age rainfall of 60 inches—-much of which runs to waste in the Pacific. } The Thompson rises not far from ‘,1'Apri! 27th; 1937 ‘areas of fat lambs to market—— _d, what is done there might be Que in many other places. A Heavy Burden of Debt We are borrowing millions and ‘pmillipns of pounds and leaving a ,”ieavy.burden of debt for our chil- Fdten, and why not use some of these ‘~ millions in settling people on the «land? Living areas should be sur- veyed free of cost to settlers as was ‘done in -Canada. We do not pay a C draper to measure off the yards of cloth he sells us. lg’ Recently, a suggestion was made " that an area which would carry 3,‘- ; 000 sheep should be considered aliv- ing area, but Mr. Buttenshaw right- ly disagreed with this, as onalarge area of poor land, or heavily timber- 7 ad‘, or far from market the over- head costs would greatly reduce the lncome—-—and one might add that too ’ high-priced land also cripples the <?‘settl‘er as was found by those who 3. took Peel River lands over 30 years ago and had their noses on the .7 grindstone well and truly after- . wards. No man ought to be allowed to . hold more than a living area, for j if he does, he deprives someone else of a chance to make a home. It is 1; sad to see station after station pass- lng into the hands of already wealthy landowners. As shown in the clever “' story of “Bro-adacres,” now running ‘has a serial in the “Sydney Morning . Herald,” a wrong principle leads to much trouble, and encourages ‘ rouguery. i—_ We need to settle experienced men 2. on generous living areas and, be- f sides making good roads, etc., as I suggested just now, the Government {’ could supply wire and netting, good ' galvanized corrugated iron (not the kind that goes holey in a year or so) and other things that are neces- sary for building on and improving a new holding. These to be paid‘ for in installments as we pay for ‘ wire netting now in Queensland. In Queensland and N. S. W.,many men are angry. because men who, for years, have made a fair living “ off their land, are being given addi- itionals which would have sufficed. for '8; new settler. ‘Y Only experienced men should take ‘g land, and it would perhaps pay ' ‘: Gwernment to‘ apprentice suit- The _ “SPOKEN WORD’ able youths to suitable men on farms or stations, where they would‘ gain practical knowledge of the work, and give go-od service in return for their keep and a small weekly wage, to be increased each year. I say suitable youths because unsuitable ones would not earn their food—and suitable employers because there are men unable to train youths wisely and who would expect too much from ~them——supervision ‘ would be necessary in the interests of both. This would provide for many of our workless lads, who would later on make desirable settlers. It should not be necessary to have much capi- tal, as many a successful settler has kept the pot boiling by taking on droving, shearing and other work, and putting his earnings into im- proving his selection. Intending settlers might take an old hand’s advice and securea1ea.se- hold——not a freeho1d———and have all the more money for stock and im- provements. And now for a Lo-ng Pull, a Strong Pull and a Pull Altogeéher. Thank you! ___._.__._..—_..____..—._.. CIO Plans Organization of Hershey Chocolate Workers Hershey, Penn, April 26‘ (FDP).—— CIO leaders laid plans today for a new drive among the employees of the Hershey Chocolate Company to organize the “United Cihoco1_ate Unions.” Announcement was made after the corporation W.o~rke»rs re- jected the CIO affiliate as the agent for collective bargaining for the Company. The election was con- ducted by the National‘Labor Rela- tions Board‘ under the terms" of the agreemeht which ended the recent . strike at the plant. The vote against the representa- tion by the United Chocolate Work- ers was 1,542, while 781 voted in favor of the John. L_ Lewis Union. The result of the election was in- terpreted as a victory for the “Loyal Workers Club“ which had contested the right of the Union to represent the Co.mpany’s em- ployees. Leaders said the election outwardly Weuld mean an even more intense’ drive tdorganize workers in the Hershey factory. MAESTRO LT’ Dave Rubinoff Radio listeners who have enjoyed the variety «of effects with which Dave Rubinoff delights his ‘audiences, will be interested in learning how these effects are obtained. Imitation of the bIare-and-bu=m- bum Salvation Army band is prod- uced by silencing all the stringed instruments——violins, cellos and basses—and bringing out the brass‘ drum above the tubes and bass others. ‘The brass section is prom- inent also in the U. S. Army Band- effect, but the chief element in- this is tempo (speed). The musical com- positions in which this treatment is most effective are those in march form and six-eight time———tWo pulses in. a measure "and many pulses with three notes in a pulse. This means about 3.60 of the short notes in a minute. Much the same method is used in simulating the circus band; tempo faster and brass most prominent, no strings. Here, also, trombones riot with “smears.” ‘ “ For‘ the shrill effect of the fife and drum corps, only piccoluos are used;. so no other instruments are needed except drums. And the Kiltie band—for lovers of the “pipes” from Ireland and Scotland. Violins sounding their lowest strings», G asnd D, four notes apart, furnish ‘the “drone” which distingui-shes. the‘ bag:-'» pipe: clarinets, oboes, flutes and high-pitched saxophones render the air or time.

In Handling Railroad Strike; Electrical Workers Threaten New York, April 26 (F'DP).—An appeal to President Roosevelt for intervention in the threatened strike of 25,000 railroad workers is ex- pected to be made this morning. The series of conferences held after a truce was reached on Saturday, faile-d to bring settlement. Members of the Brotherhood of railway and steamship clerks, express and sta- tion employees, will go on strike at noon if the President does not in- Itervene. Under ‘the Railway Labor Act the President can appoint a ‘Board of -_ Inquiry to investigate the labor dis- pute and return a report in thirty days, The question of arbitration in the present confict is complicated‘ because both -the Brotherhood and the International Longshoremen’s Association want jurisdiction over outside freight handlers.

The Union decided to ask for a wage in- crease of ten cents an hour and a thirty-five- hour week.

Non-Intervention Committee Successful; No Gun Runners Foil Land and Sea Blockade Hendaye, France, April 26\§ED-P.-- The first indication that the Inter- national Non-Intervention blockade is beginning to make itself felt in the Spanish Civil war reached Hen- daye tonight. The blockade went in- to effect last Monday night. At that time naval units of Britain, France, Germany and Italy took up stations around the Spanish peninsula to see that no more foreign men or muni- tions entered Spain. A land patrol also was established on the French and Portuguese boundaries in Spain. As the first Week of the blockade drew to a close the system appeared to be working beautifully, for there have been no reports of gun runners or of other embargo violators trying to break through the ring of ships and border patrols. Military to the fact ‘that the Rebels besieging Madrid are using anti-air-craft guns to conserve their _heavy artillerry and munitions. For the past twelve days in which Madrid has been sub- jected to the severest bombardment of the war, the Insurgents have been using anti-air-craft guns to shell the capital. The inference is that the Rebels are well supplied with anti-air-craft shells and are conserv- ing their bigger shells because out- side supplies have been cut off. The number killed in the twelve days series of bombardments of Madrid was estimated today at be- tween one hundred fifty and two hundred. Many hundred more are in various hospitals. Today’s ‘only fighting of importance was on the Basque front. Airplane raids prepared -the way for other Rebel putsches. The Bil- bao defendants however are ex- pected to put up a hard fight to save their capital. The morale of the Basques has been strenghtened by the arrival of three British food ships this week and the prospect of more on ‘the way. » I observers call attention’ Department of Justice Sues Aluminum Company, Charging A Monopolistic Control Exists, Washington, April 26 (FDP)-——The '~ Aluminum Company of America de- C it is guilty of s The «state- ment was made in reply to a. suit ‘ filed in the Justice Department in nied tonight that monopolistic practices.

" In this they are _setting an ex- ample of statesmanlike vision, co- " operation, and devotion to principle above group rivalry, which many other people would do well to fol- -low, for youth's greatest stake of all is in the Nation’s peace—they will -be the cannon fodder if America goes to war. In this country nearly everyone is for peace when there is no threat of war, but the experience of the last war demonstrates that clear think- ing and great courage are needed to stand for 1 peace when the country is in grip of war hysteria. 'l‘l1e American people wan=ted peace in 1916., they re-elected President Wil- son on the campaign slogan “he kept us out of war." but five months after the election we were dragged into tl're; World "War “to make the world safe for democracy.” ' The firm resc-lve ‘of millions of our citizens to stay out of the war was swept aside like dry grass before a Propaganda and war the country in Then engulfed months of 1917. madness fatal , .th“e're were only a few who dared to question the wisdom or righteous- ness of our entry into the -war to ilprsotect a nebulous idea of T national honor, and the rights of private in- dividuals to conduct commerce on .1;‘,E'é»high seas and the men and wo- : ‘men who had the rare‘ courage and .ight'_ ‘to, speak‘ their honest con- -were ‘féubjected to bitter V ' ing munitions Of sterner ‘Stuff There are indications which lead me to hope that the present gen- eration of youhg America may be made of sterner stuff when the test comes; that they may be better organized to resist the heat and pas- sion’ inevitably kindled among peo-. ple when war threatens. I hope they have learned a. valuable lesson from the disastrous ou.tcome of the last war for the peace of Versailles was a sordid but revealing conclusion to a war waged “to make the world safe for democracy.” Largely as a result of the economic and social chaos produced by the World War, democracy is more in jeopardy today i than at any time in three centuries. ; The billions of war debts saddled on the shoulders of youth should keep the les-sons of the war fresh in their minds. The clearer recog- nition of the cost and the horror of modern war will, I trust/ lead the young men and young women of today tgtake effective political ac- tion to insure a policy of strict neutrality by their government. The youth of this country give evidence of their determinaton to keep the United States out of future war and thus afford this generation a chance to secure for all the equal- ity of opportunity and the better life which our resources and prod- uctive capacity make possible. The Important Decision I believe the mostimportant social decision for this generation the world aover is “how we are to use the in- creased energy which industrial in- vention and organization have creat- ed ?” The utilization of this increas- ed energy is a problem that belongs to the young people of today. They have two courses that they may fol- low: _ The first one we have seen work- ing in a number of European countries. They have taken the easy way—they ,have followed the tradi- tional patterns or the past by turn- ing their surplus energy into mak- and preparing for "‘.’?"'-'- sewlacl is .liarv1°re be-i never been don'e'~~'-before.» . _ the It is a pioneering venture.—-—If wi choose this,’ we will turn our irg. creased energy into :3, restoration and preservation of our naturalre sources to create an enriched life for you and your children.

Iif. we can carry through this pioneer-1 ing experiment in the constructive“? use of increased social and economic‘; energy, we may make a practical’ dem.onstration which will bring sore!’ {: -sanity into a world suffering from war psychosis. I hope that the students who par:-_; ticipated in these various de'mon‘- E strations did not over-look the less dramatic job of constant organized work to keep America at peace with the world. Good intentions and well if meant enthusiasm are not enough.--—/ Occasional peace demonstra-tions‘. serve a good purpose, but_they can-T not be relied ypon to keep us out of war unless the sentiment they ex-. ,1’ press is implemented by an intelli.g- ent organized public opinion effect- ively guiding and directing the polit_- ical and economic policies of our na-fl tion toward other countries. We ought to have learned this from the’ events which finally swept us into the World War. Long before we had taken up arms on the side , of the Allies, commercial interests in the United States‘ had become heavily dependent upon an Allied 3 victory. At the outset of the war Secretary Bryan tried to maintain the spirit as well as the letter American neutrality by forbidding sale of war supplies and the loaning of Americ.an money to the belligerent nations. He was forced to give way, however, to Secretary,.1: Lansing, who clung to the legal fic- -"f tion that such commercial transac-6 tions in no way affect the political T neutrality of a nation. The Financing of War _ As a consequence America ex- ' ports exceeded imports by two andf half billion dollars in 19.15. In order to finance this export market Amer- ican bankers loaned huge sums to the warring ‘ nations. By 1917 Americans had loans outsta.n‘ding- Europe amounting . to a total of billion dollars.‘ American I to-.

" ere never has been any profit in for the whole of society, but ‘«"‘we have permitted certain individ- ’ uals to make enormous profits out their fellow citizens in time of .::-ar. Every citizen in the country ’ught to be given to understand that every dime he might potential- ily make out of Waryiwould be taxed 0 the limit. Iflthiswere clearly un- derstood, there would not be so ’, any people anxious for war to '|ome. One of the most incriminat- ing accusations levelled against our resent- economic system is the -fstatement sometimes heard even in public, that “what we need to in".- 'rove business is a little war.” 7" We are new spending too much Tamoney on preparations for war. Our armaments are increasing for no ,; ood purpose. I favor adequate na- 7[tiona_.1 defence, and if I understand the temper of the youth of America today, I think I can safely say that they do too. They would not stand for any foreign invasion of America and they are willing and anxious to (see that their country is adequately rotected. But most of our arma- ent preparations today are design- _'d for offensive warfare, not nation- §‘: defense. S‘ No Danger of Invasion T There is no serious danger of any _oreign invasion -of the United States. '=.' e do not need a navy built for perations in European waters or in ":31 eFar East. We should be content defend our own naval frontier (1 let the rest of the world Wor- about foreign waters. Through- Vut our military organization the '_ s of national defense are being _ri: . Insteal -of spending the money ppropriated every year for the pro- tion of our legitimate boundaries, g- Federal government is building a ;military bureaucracy whose The “SPOKEN WORD” business seems to be, not national defence, but war. This kind of military policy leads inevitably to trouble. If the Ameri- can people are wise, they will put a check on increasing military ap- propriations; they will make sure that every dollar appropriated goes in full to sound, actual national de- fense; they will be sure not a dollar goes toward -establishing a military power bent on ‘getting into other people’s business. There is a differ- ence, and it is a vital one. If we are going to keep America out of war, we as a people must have a will to peace. But We must also have the good sense to prepare against the economic and military entanglements which lead to situa- tions where it is almost impossible to avoid war. Those preparatioik must be made now. Next year may be too late. Each one of us as Amer- ican citizens, has an individual responsibility to discharge in see- ing to it that our government pur- sues a sound and intelligent course which will make the preservation of peace possible. If one hundred and thirty million Americans will do this, I am convinced that our country can remain at peace with the world. ‘SONG CONVERSION Tune: “The Shade of the Old Apple Tree” I love You, Sweet FATHER DIVINE, I will give You this whole heart of mine, I love You so true, I’ll give my body to You—- Oh, I love You, Sweet FATHER DIVINE.

The subject of the sketch is Dr. Frank Tannenbaum, of the Colum- bia University faculty, and the cur- rent‘ prevalence of the “sit-down” strike brings back forcible memories of the excitement young Tannenbaum caused by leading columns of rag- ged, marching men into Christian churches and not only sitting down but lying down until some atten- tion was paid to their demands. For his pains he spent a year in prison. Early in the evening of March 1, 12914, a youth with b1ack-hai.redm-us- cular build and vigorous manner, shouted into the wind and cold rain at 300 hungry men grouped around his soap box in Rutgers Square the creed of the International Workers of the World, known also as “wob- blies.” . _ H “We have no scruples as to the lafawl If it is unlawful to_ take bread, I refuse to be. a law-abiding citizen! A hungry man knows nothing about the law!” The cheers of his listeners‘ drowned out the noise of the Third avenue elevated trains, and pass- ersby hurried on, hoping to reach their homes before the revolution recent highly interesting ' in earnest. -The young leader, named Frank, stepped down from his box and shouted: “On! Workers of the world“. We’ll take what We want!” “-To-night We Eat and Sleep Indoor” They followed him, caring little about much he had been telling worn for thirty minutes past. The phrase that had caught them was, ‘f'1‘onight we eat and sleep indoors at the expense‘ of the rich.” Those we-re bad days in New York; 350,000 men without work 1 walked the streets. ’_ a waiter with a liking for ieading books, had sprung up in ~._E1itigers«_ square, a. _ of the fWoihb.r+i,Sm»”t Vivi‘-'h:‘,..‘ai'..' ‘new -80- . an Frank and his followers marched to the Old First Presbyterian Church at Eleventh street and Fifth avenue, a rich church, where Sun- day night services were just be- ginning. Outside they stopped to listen to Frank once more. Then, by his orders, they entered in small groups. For five minutes this influx went unnoticed. Then it became appar- ent to the accustomed members of the congregation that the church was filling with ragged, unwashed men,’ strangers usually to such a place. The Rev. Dr. the pastor, prolonged the hymn sing- ing while he tried to think what to do. ' ' At last the hymn ended. “We Are Cold,’ and Hungry” Frank rose and said calmly that his followers were cold and hungry and proposed to spend the night right where they sat. . Dr. Duffield replied that he could not grant them permission, that the church_ was not his and that a religious service was in progress at the moment. . “We’ll take the responsibility from you!” came a hout. “We'll stay without your permission!" The invaders laughed. The congregation was gathe-ring up hats and coats and slipping out. ,“G‘entlemen,” Dr. Duffield pleaded, “this is no time and place for this sort of thing.” Another laugh was the reply. A deacon whispered in the pas- tor‘s ear and he nodded’. Would the gentlemen appoint a committee to come up to the rostrum and discuss the matter? A committee with Frank as its chairman was formed. F‘-our ragged men clustered around- the pulpit with four frock-coated men, all deep in conversation. Frank explained, lest the gentle- men misunderstand, that he Was’ not “asking”_ for anything. He was “demanding” as a right, food and _ lodging.</ The church members ﬁnally ag- reed to provide 25‘ cents for each man's n:lght‘s' tlcdgi-mg. “That- won’tf“ do~,"’: replied Fran-R. ‘ "‘Wej de:xna.nd" ‘food as -ledge Howard Duffield, _ - f3;1*“‘ mE¢.i ing.” Another whispered. eonfe among“ the ‘deacons, and Dr‘.

Last fall he joined the faculty of Columbia University. His political and economic views have become more mellow, it would appear_ Hi-s belief that labor must get a larger share of the rewards of business seems to have remained con- stant, and he is a strong trade union- ist. More Than a “Period of Dreaming” - A few years ago he spoke of his “wobbly”'days as a period of dream- ing. “Until I went to school I thought there was only one way to accomplish an end,” he said. “Now I know there are many ways. The study of history is dangerous to radi- calism. One of the greatest blows I suffered in college was the realiza- tion that the world had a past as well as a present and a future” Little is known about his early days. Dr. Tannenbaum turns away questions regarding them with a ges- ture and a smile. I1; is a matter of record, however, that he was born in Austria and came to the United States when he was 12 years old. When. he was 13 he ran away from his father’s farm near Great Bar- rington, Mass, riding to New York on a half-fare ticket with 70 cents in his pockets, At 17 he was an I. W.

At 44 he is a quiet, digniﬁed man in a tweed suit who ﬁnds great sat- isfaction in the talk which friends in the literary, labor and economic worlds produce in his apartment on West Eleventh street in the evenings. Today’s radicals call Dr. Tannen- baum a “lost leader.” A man can rarely be unhappy by being ignorant of another’s thoughts; but he that does not attend to the * motions of his own is certainly un- happyw-Marcus Aurelius.

Too often in the past, the ﬁnanciers have lived by short raids on the eﬂiciency of our economy and have proﬁted at the great expense of industry instead of aiding industry to pnoﬁt to the ad- vantage ‘of itself and the investor alike. There is available today a. wealth of data W-hich throws light on the methods which -could be applied to the establishment of goals for indus-. try. We have, for example, reliable estimates of the ratio of wages to total -op-erating costs. The percent- ages vary in different industries -from 5.5 percent in. sugar reﬁning to’£& ' per cent in railroad car consjtm Was.

Thus gj‘-_ we should be in a position to «deter- , mine which industries were carrying their share of responsibility for main- taining the purchasing power neces- sary for their own welfare as well as for the welfare of industry as a whole. Trade Agreements With Foreign Nations The Industrial Commonwealth could deal -effectively with the dis- turbing problems of foreign trade, as we shall explain in detail in a later chapter. It is sufﬁcient to state here . that the industrialists and -traders of the nation could, with industry con- trolled ‘by economic facts instead of political fancies, work properly ﬁor "'= trade agreements with foreign na- tions, affecting industry, for organ- .-[ized industry would have a complete picture of its status and requirements if in relation to the products and serv- , ‘ices of other na-tions. The setting up of goals would re- glieve business of its present fears and ‘uncertainties and the necessity of op- erating haphazardly and from hand to -mouth, which it has been doing ‘since the war. The setting up of ‘ goals would mean many changes of . an important nature in business ‘prac- ' tice, in the business structure and in I the methods of dealing with interre- , lated economic and social problems. " 7 The approach would be entirely new, but -the practice and procedure would many might -think. For the world has been moving in the-direction of industrial commonwealths for some years, and our gropings toward organization will take clearer shape as the exigencies ‘of economic forces make coordina- "'tion more and more inevitable. '_ Business will have to be -organized 2-on the soundest possible basis, with the soundest people in control, and in the course of such organization it will undoubtedly be necessary to put some people out of business if they do not elong. The ineﬁicient units ‘must bmit to changes in the public in- ggerest, but the Industrial Common- «Meal-th will eliminate them as pain- _ly as possible, uniting the resourc- i'4.‘i£,~some units, purchasing rights in show industrial efficiency. Today many men are eliminated from in- dustry ruthlessly by -the processes of technological changes and shifts in public taste. The mortality in busi- ness and investment in industry due to sudden changes is today enormous. Manifestly there must. be changes and there must be mistakes if there is to be progress. But billions of dollars lost to industry and individuals by improper preparation for change and wasteful liquidation of its conse- quences could have been preserved to them by an Industrial Common- wealth. A Decent Living for All When we are organized on the ba- sis of providing a decent. living for all instead of a good income for a relatively few companies and individ- uals, we shall have to work out a relationship between money values and use values. We shall then be able to save sound factories, mines and buildings from the destructive competition of those operating on values which were established ,when they became bankrupt. In the new order, as Well as in the old, it would make for greater pro- d,ucti»on’ in a single irirlustry if indi- i lduals were being encouraged to buy -new cars or new radios every year and to discard old ones which still have reasonable use value. But it would be far better for the economy of the nation and the welfare of the individual if people of moderate means were encouraged to buy a new car once every three years, perhaps, and to spend the rest of their money on better housing, furnishing, educa- tion, travel, and other physical and cultural necessities. The Joneses might learn to keep up with them- selves! We can already see great strides in industry toward a development of use-value standards. The stabiliza- tion of trade-in allowances in the au- tomobile industry, which was stimu- lated by the NRA codes, was a step in the right direction. In our mod- ern advertising we see large com- panies spending much money to ed- ucate people toward the goal of ob- taining -the utmost use value for their money. The advertising business has been getting -away more and more from the campaigns which attempt "to stimulate buying by making peo- ple envy their neighbors. ket. ..,Ba£lio, motion Page 19 I I , Regular Taxes Assured In additiion to providing funds for a balanced budget for the individual, ' the Industrial Commonwealth will be able to assure the government of reg- ular taxes for its orderly mainte- nance. It Will also be able to spread . the burden of taxation just as it spreads the benefits of income, Under an Industrial Commonwealth the problem of unemployment will be translated into a problem of utilizing our labor resources and man-power to their fullest extent. The great prob- lem may well become that of getting enough people to do the needed work,. and there is not likely to be lack of work for the population. The ‘tree- mendous increase in consumption of goods, stimulated by the increase and the spread of proﬁts, will make our domestic market so large as to de- mand all the man-power we have and all the technological improvements We can devise. Then, too, there will be great increases in foreign mar- kets, stimulated by trade agreements and credi.ts abroad. In an economy which will -be able to consume more than it can produce, the problem of technological unemployment will not be a major problem, for when work- ers are displaced in one ﬁeld of pro- duction, they will be urgently re- quired in another. Constant Concern fot Workers The character of labor may change radically in many instances, and theme will be constant effort to save men from the .burden of doing arduous work which machines can do better. But labor itself will always ﬁnd room for its skill and force, sition period when we are developing our ‘industrial structure and creating our greater markets, some workers may be displaced, but there will be constant concern for their ,reemploy- ment. ,At present‘ the displaced work- » C er gets no attention except on a bare subsistence basis from the govern- ment wh-en he is forced upon relief rolls. Butthe Industrial Common- wealth will show constant concern for workers, and they will not be. drastically affected by the cruelties of rapid change, which, aside from its inhumanity, now destroys their all-important purchasing power. , Even during our years of haphazard economy, new industries In the tran-' » ‘ I .took up I ~ some of the slack in the labor mar-.

During «the years following 1929 hundredsvof developed and marketed successfully, particularly in the ﬁelds of chemistry and metal- lurgy. Even now we have new work for men in the air-conditioning of buildings, the streamline develop- ments of trains, the building of -trunk -highways over which rapid, stream- lined automobiles can operate, and ‘the coming industry of television, There are also vast «opportunities for in the huge tasks of- eliminating slums, eradicating dis- ease, eliminating noise, and the con- tinual development of cultural prod- ucts and ideas. ’ Discovery and utilization of inven- tion must go -forward, but they can- not do so without a pace and a plan. Our unorganized economy is destroy- ing the precious man-power which it needs for further advances, because industry takes no responsibility for the labor power and purchasing pow- er which keep it alive. In an Indus- trial Commonwealth labor and man- agement will both desire each other to prosper, not out of idealism, but because both will be working togeth- er for the achievement of common aspirations for economic security, with deﬁnite goals for its attainment. The lines of demarcation between em- ployer and employee will grow dim- mer as both merge their interests in common goals. LOGGAN OR LOGGING STONE The most famous of the rocking stones in Great Britain is poised on a rock pyramid, almost on the edge of a precipice. The location is a peninsular of granite near Land’s "End, Cornwall, England. The stone, estimated as weighing more than eighty tons, looks as if it might fall over, the edge at any time. so del- icately is it «poised, a little force ap- . plied or a strong wind will set it rocking for several minutes.

Again —-if all our money were issued by Congress-, with the volume issued al- ways matching the volume of our national production, such money would be always stable in value, be- it would be issued by our own government for use in com- merce, and not by privately owned banks for profit. To state it differ- ently, money paid into issue by 'Con- gress would always be stable in value, because there would be no d-anger that having issued such vol- ume of money, Congress would later withdraw so-me part of the is- sue from circulation for the purpose of producing a national depression. In other words, Congress would ex- ercise’ its power to regulate the value of money by keeping always in circulation exactly that volume of money needed to create and dis- tribute goods and commodities on an hon- est average pricelevel. Under such Congressional regulation Ithe invest- or or borrower could always feel the same confidence to the valu.e or purchasing power of money, that he would feel as to its volume. Under such a regulation, a dollar would al- ways be worth one hundred cents, and would not expand or contract. -as it has done in recent years un- der our present unconstitutional banking laws. If during the last fifteen -years our Oongress (had ex- ercised its constitutional duty, the nation could have been saved from these fluctuating rubber dollars. and the people could have been sav- ed from the loss of billions in prop- erty values and foreclosures of mil- lions of their homes and farms.

I seemed to catch the words: :1- ‘ “To refer -the case to the people for 1‘: l '. judgment.” _ re ‘At 12:30 that night Battalion Id Commander Sung informed me that lg Sun Ming-chiu (a battalion com- ,1‘ mander under Chang Hsueh-liang) 1e wished to see me. I told him that 1e 31 had already retired. Sung .said that ée .‘Sun insisted upon seeing me.‘ Sun m_ «came here, I was told, to arrange ‘for my removal. Sun entered the {room armed with a pistol. He re- lg ’_eatedly said I must move tonight.

After my‘ death, you may tell the people that my grave will be in the Great Hall just outside this room. You enter my room armed with deadly wea- pons. Apparently you threaten me with force. I am unarmed, but you must know that righteousness is on my side. If you want to kill me, kill me right now. I shall never move fro-m this room.” Thereupon Sun became more friendly, but continued his request for my removal. At 2 o'clock in the morning he was still there, so. I became very indignant and said: “You enter my room in the dead of night carrying firearms and worry me with your unwelcome requests. Is this reasonable? I am your super- ior. When I order you to go, you should go at once.” Fighting With Moral Character and Spiritual Strength Sun then left my room. I .know these rebels are very dangerous people. They must be fought with moral character and spiritual strength and with the principles of righteousness. When I was young I studied the classics of our sages. After I attained -manhood I de- voted myself to the revolutionary cause. There are many heroic deeds in our history. The martyrs of the former ages always defied death. In the pages of our history we find vivid descriptions of the circum- stances under which they met their death. Being a great admirer of these heroes," I prefer to follow in _ their footsteps instead of disgracing myself. The courageous life as taught by the late Dr. Sun Yat-sen should be followed by us all. Unless we do this, calamity will certainly over- take us. Jesus ‘Christ was tempted by Satan and withstood him for for- ty days. He fought against evil in- fluences more strongly than I do today. I am now, however, fighting the mutineers with ever—increasing moral strength. I .must maintain the same spirit which led Jesus Christ to the Cross, and I be -read? to meet any mutineers may bring upon me by the so-called peo- \> ple’s judgment. This will justify the teachings I have received from my mother, and will fulfill the expect- ations of my comrades. At this mo- ment I examined by own mind and found it clear and calm. My mental comfort is that I shall be able to carry out my lifelong conviction. The 14th of December Chang came to see me again in the morning, standing behind “the door, with tears in his eyes, .as if he regretted very much what he had done. I did not speak to him. After a while he left without a word. I told the attendants to ask Chairman Shae (Shae Li-tzu, Chair- man of the Shensi provincial gov- ernment) to come and .see me, but after an hour he had not come. Sev- eral times I questioned the atten- dants, and their replies were not satisfactory. I felt very suspicious about their attitude, and wondered if he had left the place of his con- finement, or had been killed by the rebels. -By noon Chang came again and, repeating his former request, urged me to move to another place. He said the guards here were not his men, and he found it very incon- venient tocome and see me or talk to me. At the same time he could not bear full responsibility for my safety and comfort while I was here, for which he was very sorry. So, at any rate, I must move to the_ Kao residence. .I told him I was determined not to move. Chang then said: “We have read your diary and other important documents learned the greatness of your per- sonality.

You have blamed me in your diary for having no character, I now really feel that this may be so. Your great fault is that you have always spoken’ too little of your mind to your subordinates.

Of a later conversation with his A. captor the generalissimo wrote, “I was surprised at- his wrong '1' reasoning, and told him that I con- sidered his words very strange. He should know that revolution meant sacrifice and not speculation fo-r benefits. Sacrifice and achievement are one and the same thing. Our leader (Dr. Sun Yat-sen) said that one should undergo the supreme sac- rifice if one could not attain one’.s- aim, which shows that he, too, did I not consider the two things as dif- ferent. ‘Sacrifice and Achievement “To tell you the truth,” I said, “my .sacrifice will be my achieve- oment. On the day that I sacrifice my life for the sake of principle, the revolution will be a success. You have not read the leader’s lecture on spiritual education, in which he said that the country would live when he died, and that it.would die if he lived simply for his own sake.” He confessed that he had not read these statements, and, while he could easily understand why the country would perish if our leader had tried to save his own life, he could not appreciate the meaning of the nation living when the leader dies. I sighed and said, “You really have not learned the great principles hence you commit such serious blunders.

The “SPOKEN worm" Wisconsin Boys Can Stay 3n the farm and Go to College, Both Madison, VVis., Apr. 23.~—The prob- lem of pulling a boy out of prac- tical work while he goes off to the university has been partly solved by the faculty of the University of Wisconsin. The clean of the College of Agri- culture does not know what funds ,the Wisconsin Legislature may ap- propriate for buildings, but he is certain that Wisconsin farmers like his idea of a mid-November to mid- March two-year agricultural course for their sons, who pay $98.50 a year for board, room, tuition and ordinary medical care. A lot of farmers who want their sons to come back to the home place hesitated to send them to “ag” school, said Dean Christensen, be- cause often after four years of university training they turned to technical or educational agriculture. Others could not afford to send their sons to college for four years, or possibly spare them from farm work for the full course. The Farm Folk School, inaugu- ated five years ago, provides asub- stantial agricultural education, with basic training in economics, history, sociology and political science. And after graduation the “boys” go back to the farm. The only entrance requirement is two or three years’ apprenticeship on the farm. Most students are in their twenties, alhough some have Some have not been schooled beyond the eight grade. The Farm Folk School is in the heart «of the agricultural college section of the campus. Farm ani- mals are quartered near by and students live and study together in the farm atmosphere. Dormitories are comfortable, but not elaborate. Simple food is served cafeteria style in a room capable of seating .175, about half the students in the school this year. Three or four nights a week the students meet to listen to speakers from on and off the campus, and to discuss a wide range of subjects. ' None can pray well but he that lives well.

Dainty hand-made dresses, “sold in fthe ﬁnest shops of America,” the re- ~'~ port declares, are produced by home- ‘: workers earning from 2 to 10 cents -, an hour. Each dress sells for more v than the worker is paid for a dozen, the bureau contends.

Unless You Express Understanding, Love, Kindness and Obedience in Your Emotions, Still Yourself and Let GOD Alone Be Heard--FATHER The Time Has Truly Come, None Shall Stand With Him But Those Free from Every Sense of Selfishness “OUR FA'l‘HER’S IVIESSAGE” AT THE BANQUET TABLE, KING’S TOWN EXTENSION, THE PROM- ISED LAND, MONDAY, APRIL 26, 1937 A.D_F.D. TIME: 12:50 RM The Banquet ‘Table of the stately King's Town Mansion was again the setting for a gay «demonstration of GOD'S Love fo-r His Children and His Love in His Children for HIM. Soon after FATHER had seated Himself at the head of the admiring and adcoring throng, the high vibra- tion of the ecstasy of being in the Personal Presence of -the ‘KING of kings was felt, and emotions were -freely expressed as a tender song of love was directed to Him VVho so freely bestows all good and perfect gifts upon one and all. The Message below recorded was delivered by the MASTER when He rose Personally after closely observ- -ing the different ones in the gather- ing as they expressed in emotions. The Thought brought forth for con- sideration on this occasion was that those who express super-emotiona-lly in the vibrations should express all of GOD’S Attributes in as great, or greater, measure, When a complete -and whole-hearted self-denial and consecration have been made, GOD alone will express, not only in emo- tional vibrations, butin Understand- ing, Wisd-om, Knowledge,’ unselﬁsh A and unadulterated Love and Kindness for all, -and all other Qualities- of .f\ \I Good, better known a-s GOD, FA- THER DIVINE. _ Heavenly SAVIOUR, we the _k You for Your Steady, Guiding ‘H d ex- tended in this Enlightening Message, ' PEACE EVERYONE: (‘Peace, FATHER DEAR!’ came -the re- -sponse.) I rise as I move and I move as I have Arisen to speak and to bring My Energy and My Emo- tions into constructive action. The signiﬁcance of our Work is that we harness all of our emotional energy and every other expression from an emotional point of View in words, deeds and actions and bring them I into subjection to be our construc- tive, profitable and practical ﬂ ‘serv- -ants. It is a privilege to know you’ ‘can be emotional, I am emotional Myself, but yet I must express My Emotionalness in RIGHTEOUSNESS, TRUTH and JUSTICE in ‘the -act of fulﬁlling My Aim and My Purpose. EMO'l‘l()NS USED CON STRUCTIVELY I often think of how great it is to believe in the ALLNESS of GOD and the not/hingness of matter, and -to establish yourself in such a recog- nition that you might recognize GOD-‘S ACTUAL PRESENCE moving and working volitionally but yet con- 'structive1y and in-telligently and in-‘ stru-ctively for the purpose of the advancement of the Kingdom of GOD «on earth among us. ‘it moves volitionally and you are in- spiired inspiratianally-"'and izituitively, I 4- Whilst My .S_p-ir- . t“Page 4 The "spoken svonn" Saturday, May 1st, 19, you must remember with the right concept and the recognition of the ‘Truth, with -the understanding of it, you will use your emotions construc- ‘tively.

GOD IN REALITY A LIVING FACTOR VVhilst looking at the different in- dividuals stressfully moving volition- hlly and spontaneously, as it may be ‘termed, it is a privilege to do so, but remember our emotions and expres- sions and vibrations and manifesta- tions must not transcend that of our common intellect and human under- standing,—in other words the under- standing that is given to you from the INFINITE, -that you might be as understandable and understand as well as your emotions and expressions might dare "be. the ea-rth -plane—I mean GOD, the ‘FATHER, and cop, the soN—-for the purpose of merely expressing emotions and vibration.s in the act of demonstrating and the demonstra- tions that the emotions and vibra- tions _.put forth into expression, but we are ‘here for the purpose of bring- ing‘ about the actuality of GOD’S AC- TUAL PRESENCE in every word, in every deed and in every action, to prove to the world conclusively -GOD j is in reality a Living Fact-or, no long- er ‘Something -to be merely looked up- on as imaginary, no longer to be. loo-ked upon as merely an expression of religious enthusiasm and ecstasy, , but as a Living Factor made real, tangible and practical REDEMPTION OF ALL HUMA-NITY This is the -hope of your REDEMP- TION‘! . . . and the Redemption of all humanity!

These Thoughts are well worth considering. ‘To him whom little is given, little is required and to him whom much is given, much is required,’ If you are emo- tional in the expression of the ec- stasy of My Presence, you should be emotional in the act of bringing about and manifesting more LOVE, dis- tinctly understood and observed by «US. ‘LOVE YE ONE, ANOTHER’ Then and there you are telling the people something concerning My Presence,—-not so much by your vi- brational emotion, but by your vibra- tional action in fulﬁlling My Request according to the Gospel: "Love ye one another, even as I have loved you.’ So long as there is a tendency of prejudice or selﬁshness in you, you cannot associate or sleep or rest wit-h your sister or brother, you are open- ly telling Me you are not of Me. Now these are facts and ﬁgures too stout -to be denied. Then I say, on those grounds be- cause of such, and because of the lack of being truly -converted from that Adamic state "of consciousness, it has" been requested by JESUS, and I am reite-ra-ting and requesting the same,—-as the FATHER I am saying’: ‘Still yourself and love ye one an- other, even I have loved you;’ and unless you do, you are not of Me. You may be fooling someone else, but you would not be fooling Me, unless you express LOVE,—UNSE‘LFISH LOVE and UNADULTERATED LOVE. .

N0 GROUNDS \FO'R CRITICISM If every person would live accord- ing to same, it would be no grounds ‘for criticism nor for deviation; nei- ther would there be grounds for any- one to stumble in coming in contact with you. Why? Because if you express GOD systematically, scientiﬁ- cally and harmoniously from every angle expressible, express PERFEC- XTION in the Light of Understanding as well as you express it in your emo- tions and vibrations, express it in LOVE and in KINDNESS an-d in O-BEDIENCE to the Commandments of GOD, and in SELF—DENIAL and SACRIFICE to compete with all of the emotions and vibrations and ex- pressions and the volitionated words that -may come forth spontaneously as an explosion by the DYNAMIC- NESS of GOD’S INFINITENESS, you should compete with it and with them and allow GOD'S UNDER- STANDING and LOVE and KIND- NESS and all of GOD'S Attributes of Himself to be manifested in you to compete with all of these different ex- pressions, that you might «ordinarily do volitionally.

If it can, why then some, as you have seen, can be endorsed and gloriﬁed by GOD and by men, for you have seen some of My ‘True Followers at cer- tain times they have spoken emo- tionally and volitionally and moved spontaneously with all enthusiasm by expressing it,-——in other words they do‘ or have expressed it in KNOWL EDGE, in UNDERSTANDING, in LOVE and in KINDNES.S and in OBEDIENCE. Unless you bring forth these last stated Qualities into action, cease to be emotional and .still yourself and let GOD ALONE be heard. That is what I am talking about! GOD SPEAKING The stenogvraphers have not been told to write the testimonies and the addresses of My Followers. They have not been requested to do so, They have not even been encouraged to do so, but there are one or two . among you speaking volitionally, as emotional as I Am, and as emotional as you are, but yet when -the Spirit‘ moves «on this, or these, individuails, the stenographers’ pens get -busy. Why? Because it is GOD speaking volitionally through the individual, and yet it is GOD HIMSELF speak- ing SUPER-INTELLIGENTLY, and causing mankind to know the Truth concerning the mystery through pre- diction and through reitera=te_d pre- dictions of what GOD is actually ful- ﬁlling.

It is a universe Where there is, in a sense, nothing but law, law constantly working through the agency of cause and effect, and in which for even the most ordinary intelligence to think that there is only, or that there is the slightest element of chance, is practically incomprehensible. One -Life and Law .If all is in absolute accordance with law and plan and order, the-re is an intelligence, a power that is back -of and that gives life and form and sustaining force to that law and order. To me this is being mani- festing itself in existence, the Su- preme Intelligence—God. The Crea- tor Vmanifesting _Mitse1f—-himself if you prefer——-in creation, so that Creator and creation are one, in the sense that Creator is the life, the spirit of all there is in existence- in creation. There is the one life, this Spirit of Infinite Life and Pow- ‘ er that is back of all, working in and through all, the Life of all. To speak therefore of our life as sep- .‘ arate and apart from this Infinite Life, as separate from the life of God, is impossible. To speak of it as equal to the life of God is un- reasonable. In nature, in essence, in quality it is essentially, one and therefore Divine in‘ its origin, in its essence.‘ In degree of A I 7%manifestation and in power it is to- ::.'”ft'a‘lly different, and here is the one "essential f feature, of this a11-im-.- lives. It is possible for us to re- main closed to, in ignorance of, the -source and nature of our real be- ing, and to live without a consci- ous connection with this Source. Mind the Connector It is the mind that relates the soul of man, the real eternal self, with this Source. llt is through the instrumentality of the mind that we are enabled to make this conscious connection.- "It is this that distin- guishes us from the inanimate World ; our minds, moreover, are given us for use. » It is possible for us through the channel of our minds so to relate ourselves to, and to grow ever more conscious of, the real identity of our lives with their Divine Source that we become receivers and lib- erators, so to speak, of the attri- butes of the Divine Life. Among ‘the attributes of this Life ‘are wis- dom, power, l-ove, harmony. In the degree that we make and keep this conscious connection we make our- selves natural channels for a con- tinually greater degree of Divine In- telligence and Power to manifest in and through us. i It is in a way like the plant. When in its right relations- with that to which it must rightly relate itself for unfoldment and growth—- soil with sufficient moisture and sunlight——its life and growth go on naturally and unimpeded, and it finally reaches its destiny——ful1ness of unfoldment and growth, which means maturity. If but poeorly re- lated to or if separated from these, it struggles for a. while and finally withers and dies. Degree of Consciousness ‘Let us recur to the statement: In the degree that we make and keep this conscious connection with our Source do we make ourselves na- tural channels for a continually greater degree of. Divine Intelligence - and Power to manifest in and through us. _And What, it is but right to ask, is the basis of such a state- ‘-ment outside, of the statement it-.

H. JUSTICE Everything I know and do, I -have learned from others. I was taught to walk, to talk, to eat, My thoughts have been trained to ﬂow in certain channels. All these things were done for me by my parents, my friends, and strangers whom I casually read about or met. Let a puppy alone, and it will ﬁnd its own food; it will run and growl and ﬁght. But let a child alone, and it will cry and cry and cry until it idles, A child does not inherit in it- development either mental or physical. A child would just as soon put poison into its mouth, as food. If a child is raised among dogs, it will learn to hark and run on all fours, eat meat raw, lap water, and in -every way live like a dog. What is more, think like one also. - But these things did not happen to me, -because I was constantly in the company of other people. There- :fore_I learned to act like them, and ‘think like them, Other children will follow the same path, and they too will learn to behave like men and ‘ « women. Where Is the Model? But how should the ideal person be- have? If I must have a model to copy from, who shall be my mod- VV-ha-t standards should I fol- low? What standards should I in- stil into the children that they may live happier, fuller lives than I en- A C’ joyed ? To ﬁll this need, we have the de- scription of the perfect man, JE- SUS CHRIST. He has been our mod- el for thousands of years. Mission- ‘‘ aries have brought HIM into t-he land‘ of the barbarians, and exhorted the ’ .-barbarians to raise their children in HIS image. And Christianity has swept across the surface of the earth, changing races from the lbru- tal, ignorant Way -of life, to the fuller H , happier pattern of Christianity. The Christ Pattern And I find today hu-ge industries that require for their existence the " working together of men from all , lands of our earth.

Imag- ine New York City composed «of sus- picious barbarians who pride them- selves upon the number of neighbors they have killed. Yet the ancestors of this thriving metropolis did just that thing. The difference between the barbarian and the Christian'man, is the difference lbetween the wooden idol and the ideal of JESUS CHRIST, It is written in the Bible that the ‘Kingdom of GOD is at hand. Let me tell you, the Kingdom of GOD is here on earth now. The sign by which we shal-1 know it, is the sound of a bugle heard around the world. That bugle has sounded and we have heard today I mention the word Nevertheless, the Kingdom of GOD has always been on earth, even be- fore Adam. Today men have reached that stage of development when they are ready to accept a fuller, more detailed pic- ture of what is GOD. What are HIS powers, an-d what is our rela- tion to HIM. That force that makes us all equal and co-ordinates all our acts into a powerful mass movement is the lead- er of our nation. That leader is GOD. GOD Speaks and Acts GOD is the leader of our nation. GOD speaks with the voice of radio and newspapers; HE moves by air- eas.ier and should make all effort even a joy. It is the law of the re- ﬂex nerve system that whenever one does or endeavors to do any given thing in a certain way, a modicum of power is added whereby it is a triﬂe easier at the next effort, an added triﬂe at the next and the next, un- til that which is diﬂicult and is done only with g-reat effort in the begin- ning becomes -easy of accomplish- ment-——that which we do ha.lting~ly and stumblingly at ﬁrst, bye and bye,’ so to speak, does itself, and with scarcely or even without any con- scious effort on our part.

It professes to be a story told to the author by a sailor, who had visited an island, “the abode of a happy Society which,,in it virtue of its wise organization and legislation, is free from the harass- ing cares, inordinate desires, and cus- tomary miseries of mankind.” The book is really a satire ‘upon the government of England by the tyrannous methods of Henry VII and Henry VIII.

The study of the Greek language revealed ;the treas- ures of wisdom and artistic culture which Greece had produced before the Christian era, and led to an investi- gation of various spurious dogmas enunciated by the Fathers of the Church. -Men began to see that the progressive development of civiliza- tion was accompanied by chance, mis- ery, and wret-chedness. A craving set in for social change, Sir Thomas More may well be described as the father of this movement. He aimed at Reform in Church and State. In “Utopia” the chief r-uler was elected by the people, who voted by ballot. The incdustrial system was so excellent that there was no waste of life—-no starving laborers and no monopolist landlords, or millionaires. The Utopians were Communists. ‘Each was bound to .-labour, exception only being made for those who showed some special aptitude for intellectual pursuits, T-here was a six hours’ day; free education; and sanitary perfection—- the value of light, _air, comfort, and ' clean -linen being fully appreciated. Cruel-ty to animals was unknown. Criminals were punished with a view not to torture, but reform. A Su- preme Essence, or Power, was recog- nized, an-d xreligious toleration pre- vailed. The priests were elected by vote, but religious worship found its centre in the family, not in the con- gregation. An opportunity was af- forded for all sects, and believers in all sorts of opinions, to worship- pub-. licly, , , _ This almost prophetic book is in- tensely int-eresting at ‘thJlS juncture.

NEW YORK orn I Page 16 s THE GRACE or APPRE- CIATION By STEPHEN BLISS Among the countless gracious and beautiful sayings of FATHER DI- VINE, one of the -choicest is that in which HE speaks of HIMSELF as the honey-bee, gathering up what is sweet and pure out of all the many udiversiﬁed beliefs and actions of mankind, HE declares that HE is capturing the essence of all that is good out of every religion and every organization and every movement in the world. HE is on the look-out for the Good. This is a,necessary ele- ment of HIS Doctrine and Program of the “Positive.” HE considers the Positive, utilizes the Positive; ignores the Negative and throws it away. But there seems to be a constant danger that we, as HIS followers, do exactly the reverse. , One day the disciples of JESUS Were scandalized because they saw a man casting out devils without using the‘ Name of -their MASTER. ‘They be-cause “he followeth not after us.” And JESUS sai~d—-—-and HE seems to have said it quite sharp1y——-“Let him alone.” If anyone w-as doing any- thing good, JESUS liked that. This is certainly the CHRIST Spirit. Mr. Das Gupta, head of the world- wide “Interfai.th" movement, who has on a number of occasions-organized ‘a. World Congress of Religion, has a pleasant lit-tle magazine which he calls “Appreciation,” That is the point and program «of it—-to appre- ciate all that any group is doing that is a sign-post toward the TRUTH. I know it is diﬂicult for us to be patient with anyone who is slow to recognize and follow ‘FATHER DI- ”V~INE, but it is surely worth while to consider 1-IIS own words on this matter and follow HIS SPIRIT an-d . HIS Command. -Clearly HE wants -us to recognize the good wherever it ap- pears and to recognize it as a mani- festation of HIS SPIRIT even in those who do not themselves recog- that SPIRIT. V _ ,, ,, Appreciation is_ good medicine, one " ,4‘:-‘»,'jg:1g;re.dient of that Merry Heart that a medicine. asked CHRIST to. rebuke the healer. yo . . -3°“ s~‘T‘°<:°‘ #1916--°-‘W ognize the good in something some- -one else does you give yourself a lift toward FATHER and HIS Truth, Some people cannot bear to let other folks alone, They just take it for granted that anyt-hing ‘anyone does must be wrong. Like the nervous mother who called downstairs to the maid—“Where’s Johnny?” ' “I don’t know,” replied the girl. “What is he doing?” the mother asked again. “I don’t know.” “Well, go «out and ﬁnd him and whatever he is doing, tell him -to stop it!” Of course I may be accused now of ﬁnding ‘fault with the fault-ﬁnders—— and I don’t want to slip into that trap. And it is quite _evident——as in the case of all the rest——why these fault-ﬁnders fall into the error, They are so determined that the “mortal mind” shall get no credit for any- thing that they are like watch-dogs, growling at every indication that some credit is going in that direc- tion. They insist that all credit must go to the DIVINE MIND——and of "course they are right in this. where -they seem to differ from FA- THER in this matter is that HE rec- ognizes the presence of the DIVINE MIND in everyone, and -instead «of negatively criticizing the mortal min-d he———like that honey-bee about which HE loves to talk——pounces on the trace of Divinity HE detects, and develops it. One of the most absurd cases on record of this over-zealcousness to find fault occurred in «a conversation be- tween two of FATHER'S followers about “Brother Lawrence" and his inspired conversations called, “The Practice of the Presence of GOD." Selections from these conversations, by -the way, have been appearing in the SPOKEN WORD. One angel was expressing appreciation of these “conversations.” The other snorted in -disdain. What he said sounded something like the Indian's “Ugh!” For this great and beautiful Chris- tian classic he had nothing but con- tempt. ‘_‘It is just the workings of the Mortal M~in_d.,” he said. Now this is nonsensical as well as iniquitous. In the realm of economic theory one is always running up against this r Ii ance, But A any credit for discovering a bit _. our FATHER DIVINE. ».r?understandf'_,tIie‘?ihtbIér- Sahlfadys May 1st.

Pittsburgh, Apr. 30. Almost every- one at sometime or other, looking at acommunity of boats, moored to the dock or floating in mid-stream, has wondered if it might be pretty nice» to live that Way. And when high floods come and tear away at well- foundationed houses, the boat-dwel- lers laugh and say it serves people right for trying to live on land. This is the unanimous sentiment of Pittsburgh's boa‘t-dwellers as they get their barges shipshape for Sum- mer. Two major floods in thirteen months have battered them some, but nobody in the colony would think of surrendering to a flood. The George Whites, comparative newcomers, have fallen under the spell. Six years ago, when the de- pression had his trucking business on the rocks, White traded his last truck for a houseboat. “Times have gotten better,” he said, “and the other week my wife decided to live on a farm. But a week of that was enough. We moved back to the river.” The flood of last St. Patrick's day made a deep impression on all the fleet that clusters alongshore from the point where the Monogahela and the Allegheny join to form the Ohio River. “It was bad,” remarks Mrs. Rob- ert Zubig, who has kept house on ‘the river ever since she was mar- ried seventeen years ago. Her “shanty boat” is a spic—and- span four-room floating house. Frank Zesky, on the water twenty-two of .his sixdty-one years, has a tight lit- tle single-rot-om craft. Steve Muick, 14, lives with his folks on a nine- room boat. So the craft run, all sizes but with the same satisfac- tion to owners, regardless of the number of rooms. They ﬁnd it all right. his neighbors, he pulls anchor and drifts to where there are folks he does like. Many of the boatsare equipped with running water and gas, virtually all of them have- elec- tricity. Light-bills are around $2 a month, rent is free.

TIME: 7:15 P.M. On Saturday Evening, April 24th, the Banquet Table of the beautiful King’s‘ Town Mansion was -surround- ed by scores of true and faithful Followers of FATHER DIVINE, who had lost no time in gathering to- gether upon learning that their SA- VIOUR had returned to The Prom- ised Land, and also a number of vis- itors and representatives of the press. FATHER had graciously Conde- scended to allow the persistent photo- graphers to take pictures of Himself serving the Banquet, and sat patient- _1y for a few moments before start- ing to serve, as ﬂashlights ﬂared and cameras clicked, The Banquet then proceeded with beautiful songs of praise and -testimonies of thanksgiv- ing. ’ As usual the great climax of the evening was when FATHER rose to speak Personally. On this occasion the HOLY BODY Condescended to the plane of the mortal mind which continually doubts or disbelieves be- cause He does not exert the fullness of His Power. But what says the Scripture‘? ‘Not by Power nor by Might, but by My Spirit,’ saith the LORD.

" SFORMS FROM TALITY TO ORTALITY -transformable as a transform- at may be the mechanical ' ormer, transforming gasoline ~ rrent and other expressions we [term it to be, even so trans- " I you from mortality to True -ORTALITY, from materiality ‘carnality to True "SPIRITUAL- L no uly m. 5 s b 75 0.. _\ in reality‘. ‘ For this cause we oicing at the ACTUAL PRES- GOD, whilst being on His I . in-A betternient not on1y'_.oja;iiong ,._that you might be NEW crea- ’_=~Du_ty in the midst of the.‘ r of . men, bringing labels «ii- The “-SPOKEN oW0_RD” -those of whom you have your at- tentions directed to ‘this evening, as those of the underworld, but bring- ing about a moral betterment for every walk of life, for every profes- sion, for every nationality, for every creed, race, and for every color, and for every denomination and each and all of the organizations. The Spirit of My Presence will bring about a UNIVERSAL better- ment for ALL humanity and cause them to eventually express the iden- tical Life and Characteristics of JE- SUS, until all mankind shall be the Representatives of the Spiritual World that was above, instead of being representatives of misery, sin, debauchery and woe wheresoever mankind may be found. Oh it is a privilege to observe the great un- foldment of the MAJESTY of GOD! You hear men say from time to time speaking of the majesty of men, they say: ‘His Majesty’ but if you would stop 'to consider and direct that expression in the di- rection of HE of Whom has MA- JESTY, HEA of Whom also has , HOLINESS, that they might express and manifest and observe HIS HOLINESS, HIS MAJESTY, HIS LOVE and HIS oMERCY! HUMAN INTELLECT INADEQUATE For this cause we are rejoicing! . . no longer relying merely on that which is observable in our con- scious vocabularies. Your human in- tellect with all of the earth's. voca- bularies, if you will search for it, is still inadequate» to express a percent of a fraction of a percent of a frac- tion of a grain of the significance and the mystery of HIM Who- lives within. _ GOD can transform you charac- teristically, naturely and personally from, every corruptible tendency, and cause you to be new creatures in reality by concentration. The thing you concentrate on a.nd vividly "vis- ualize, you _tend to materialize and you tend to take, on the nature of such a concentration, of the thing upon which you are concentrating. It, is a privilege to realize it is a privilege to produce the desirable and materialize it. ‘as well as it has been your ‘privilege to produce ‘the undesirable" ancl _m'ater'iaI‘ize, it and ibriiigi Iiegation and -chaos in you Page 19 present existence and in the life in the past, such as you have been liv- ing. Oh it is a privilege I say! GOD IS AS YOU ARE Then I say, when we speak of GOD as a Whole, or if we speak of GOD as an Individual, we are not merely speaking of GOD as Some- thing mysterious and imaginary; We are speaking of That which is as Real, and as Tangible and as Prac- tical as you are, for GOD IS as you are, if you please! It is written: ‘As He is, so are we in ‘this present world.’ -Because GOD veiled Himself behind the veil of tears from the early days of the human life on the face of the earth, it did not say that GOD was merely Something imaginary and mythical because He was invisible! I wish to state this evening, every one of you under the sound of My Voice, a few years ago you were all invisible! As invisible as man has declared GOD to» be, even so in- visible have you been, and even the same, as invisible, are thousands and ‘thousands of others who will become to be visible by this GREAT CREATOR and the Creative Forces of Nature. All things that you observe new, today, once upon a time were all invisible,——especially those things that express the inanimate life of man or of beast, those ‘things that can move about from place to place and can manifest themselves as an outward expression of conscious life, ~--they all were once invisible, by the visibilization of the visible one, by the concentration of the visible person on that INVISIBLE ONE through imagination, the Vis- ible things came forth into expres- sion that were once invisible and merely imaginary. For this cause we are rejoicing and we are ex- ceedingly glad to bring into actual- ity the reality of GOD‘S ACTUAL PRESENCE on earth among men, that all of the inhabitants of the earth might realize GOD is REAL, TANGIBLE and PRACTICAL as you are. ALL ATTBIBUTES REAL, TANGIBLE AND PRACTICAL That was the Mission of JESUS as 9. Person,-§.—to shorw I_118.I1‘kl.I1d that I but A Page 20 GOD was as REAL as they could dare be. His Condescension to make Himself in a Body of FLESH and PERSONIFY the CHRIST was for the purpose of bringing about the conscious conviction and the realiza- tion of the -tangibilization of His MAJESTY! What profit would be the MAJESTY of the ALMIGHTY to remain intangible and invisible? It would be little profit to the chil- dren of that people; but today we are pleased to say ‘the tangibiliza.- tion of the MAJESTY, the LOVE and the MERCY of the ALMIGHTY has become to be a Living Reality, for GOD has ta11gibilated_. HIM- SELF and -made His Works, His Spirit, His Mind and all of His At- tributes real, tangible and practical. Then I say, the time cometh and is near at hand when the children of ‘men shall be able to concentrate on , any desired aim and prod-uce it al- most instantaneously! Do you not see the outward expression in these fbeautiful Extensions commonly known as the PEACE MISSION EXTEN- ' ‘SIGNS? Why are they so beautiful, and why are they so bountirfully sup- plied? They are because My Follow- ers believe in the reality of the Crea- .tive Forces of Nature and the CRE- ‘ATOR being a Living Reality in all things . bringing from the in- visible realm the recognition ' of GOD’S ACTUAL PRESENCE, be- coming to’ be active in your -duty to- wards your felluowrnan and others, that you might live Soberly, Right- eously and GODLY in this present world and express the Nature of CHRIST to others, that they too, as Well as you, might copy after the fashion I have shown them, OLEANSED MENTALLY FRQM ALL FILTHINESS By this, mankind will be changed. Your minds will be cleansed, as the "Spirit said a little while ‘ago. Pro- fane language, obscene language and other expressions such as mortality is still using, will no longer have an existence in your consciousness, for you will be cleansed mentally from all filthiness of the ﬂesh and ‘Spirit, perfecting HOLINESS‘ in -the fear of GOD! Oh .:it is something to con- ! sider! When ,, you are not in -the —-midst of ill-famed -and profane per- soﬁs, the very’ Spirit or con mitts . ‘yo1i_‘ab‘dv‘,_e the -sense or such »aiee1- Tfié ing as you have when are in their p=res»ence, but if you happen to be caught out or -caught up in the midst of people who are speaking vulgarly, imm-orally, obscenely, and using profane language, it is a world in a di~ff'erent expression and a dif- ferent version to the one in which you are now living. When you hap- pen to get in such a bunch, you feel like you are in Purgatory. Now isn't that something to consider! Your very minds are cleansed, and » I venture to say even our neighbors and our friends can verify the same. They do not hear My true and faith- ful Followers, so long as they adhere -to My Message, using‘ obscene lan- guage. Cleanse yourselves from an filthiness‘ of the flesh and spirit, per- fecting HOLINESS in the fear of GOD, that the Life of GOD as in- structed and revealed by the Spirit of True Christianity might be a Living Reality in your experiences. All of these things can be, and they are be- ing, a reality among those of My true and faithful Followers, for they are fil-led and thrilled with JOY unspeakable and PRAISE and THANKSGIVING. That is why -they are all so filled with such enthusiasm! GOD WILL TAKE CARE OF YOU ‘Let us -Live in this Light continual- ly. ‘Be not dismayed Whatever Tile-' tide, GOD will take care of you,’ you heard the Spirit of Christianity say, ‘Under the wings -of His Love abide-, GOD will take care of you.’ . . . ‘Fret not yourselves because of the workers of iniquity,’ «the Scripture says. As a Biblical quotation I am quoting just now, ‘. . . for they shall be cut off.’ These Words I speak are not more Words of men! If there ‘be a prediction, My Friends, -the pre- diction and the predictions_ that are being made, as being termed a pre- diction’, they are made through quo- tation as a reiteration of that which has been predicted, I predict -today for the future, the very Spirit of GOD’S PRESENCE shai-1 be among you!

Did He not say: “And ‘His Name shall be called Immanuel, being interpreted, ‘GOD is with us?” That was the Mission of C=HRlS'.l‘ from the beginning,~—to convince mankind that GOD was with them, that they might no longer surmise nor imagine GOD as Something imaginary and far away from them, that they might come to this place in consciousness Where they could understand that GOD was actually with them, even as I ACTUALLY AM! TRUTH FIRM AS A ROCK Upon this foundation if you will stand, you cannot be shaken, you cannot be moved! Firm as the ROCK this Truth ‘shall stand, whilst rolling years shall cease to move. The ‘very -Spirit of GOD’-S PRES- ENCE shall cause your minds‘ ‘to ascend into the IN‘FI»NIT-ENESS of GOD’S INFINiITEN.ES-S where t‘h,e~re will be no destination in your en- larged imagination, but Where your thoughts will go into INFINITUDE, the end you cannot vision. ‘Then I say, enlarge your borders in the act of expressing RIGHT- EOUSNE SS, TRUTH and JUSTICE, LOVVE and KIN>DNlES»S fo-r one an- other and others, that the Life of GOD might be an open book in you, that others may be able to read the book as an Epistle in the fulﬁllment of the Gospel, or Scriipturez ‘You are living Epistles, seen and read of men.’ That . _is .wl_1_at each and all of you should be, and I believe you come near being it! The only thing that Page 21- would prohibit you would be if you would deviate in the least; but so long as you are substantiated in Faith and will -not deviate, you will not have an occasion to fret nor Worry, and you will not be as a closed book ‘but you will be an open book that can be seen and read’ by the children of men . . read- ing your lives as lives desirable, reading your lives as lives sought for by others, reading your livesas that desired aim of all mankind. BROADEN YOUR BORDERS The ambition of each and every individual has been to produce PER- FECTION and return back to the GOD VVho Created you, and no long- er live in the absence of GOD'S PRESENCE, but live in the con- sciousness of GOD’S ACTUAL PRESENCE where naught can hurt nor harm you. ‘If GOD is with you,’ as said David, ‘you need. not fret nor worry,’ he said, ‘for Thou art with me, Thy Rod and Thy Staff they comfort me.’ I heard Chris- tianity say by inspiration: ‘The COMFORTER has come to abide, Bid Him welcome today-— Every door open wide, The COMFORTER «has come to abide.” Open wide your HEARTS and your MINDS! Broade-n your ‘borders of understtanding, that GOD might come ,,,in your daily experiences -and might be ‘at Home’ in expression in words as Well as in deeds, but especially that He might manifest Himself in your actions. Ishazve long since declared by i:n,s:pirati~on as a composition for consideration: ‘I will upreaoh CHRIST in Words, but more so in Deed-s -and in Ac- tions, and I will put My Spirit in them and cause them to walk in My Statutes.’ It is a -privilege to produce the Laws of GOD in you and manifest them in your characteristics and in your nature and in your personality. Those -Statutes, those Laws of GOD transimitted, might be as though they are ‘ ‘I will put My Spirit in "them and 22: ' ‘I cause them to "walk in by -Statu- tés.’ ‘ Oéh fit is a privilege to observe the Truth. GOD'S Ways and GOD’~S Commands are not grievous when you live it and when you express it and when you bring your bodies in- to subjection to RIGHTEOUSNESS, TRUTH and J UST-ICE, and -produce it by c-oncentration; and by living it scientifically, you become to be a new creature and new creatures col- lectively, ‘if there are many of you together in reality. ABOVE ALL OPPOSITION Build upon this foundation. You will find yourselves above all that could be in opposition, for the GOD of PEACE, the GOD of ‘-HEAIVEN, will’ be in you in reality in words, ‘deeds -and actions, and you will be pleased and glad to manifest it. I thank you.. - PEAJCE EVERYONE: Just before I take My Seat I would just li.ke to say I -rose in the beginning mere- fly to make an announcezmnent and to request of one of the secretaries to read for our consideration a Mes- sage from.

TIME: 1:30 P.’ M. A world, which is gradually be- ginning to grasp the significance of a Great Movement, is today looking with different eye-s upon what it once, in its ignorance, believed to be a small group of people banded together in fanatical worship. News- papers and periodicals of every kind, in the past few weeks especially, have been giving publicity to this ‘Contagion’ so that every civilized nation has now heard of the Name and the Mighty Works of FATHER DIVINE, the REDEEMER of MAN- KIND. While much of the publicity has been of a non-positive nature, due to prejudiced and limited concepts of many of the publishers, it has nevertheless served to put the Holy Name of FATHER DIVINE upon the ‘tongue of nearly everyone who is able to read, and those who are not, or do not, can scarcely have failed to hear it over the radio,—— the Name which is ‘magic’ in itself, and’ when breathed, or even merely thought upon harmoniously, brings about a beneficial result. At the King’s Town Mansion Sun- day afternoon, April 25th, FATHER , Personally presided at the Banquet Table. Seated at the table and among those standing about was a representative of the Paramount News Reel, whom FATHER had graciously granted permission to take pictures of Himself and of ‘the Extension, and two representatives" of the Associated Press. The Beau- tiful, Enlightening Message, which the DEAN of the UNIVERSE Con- descended to deliver before starting to serve the Banquet, was directed to these newspaper men and photo- graphers, that they might be Bless- ed with the understanding of the im- portance of co-operating and being in harmony with the INFINITE. Prior to -His Lecture, FATHER re- quested the reading of some of the grateful letters of acknowledgment from merchants and Organizations who had been benefited by the ad- herence of His Followers to His Command to ‘owe no man.’ THANK YOU DEAR SAVIOURZ PEACE EVERYONE: ‘(‘Peace, FATHER DEAR!’ gaily returned the hearers.) I believe after listen- ing to that which we term ‘Words’ your minds have been concentrated on something worth considering and your vibrations are lifted above ma- terialism and you realize something you had not realized before. It isa privilege to realize the transforma- tion of man is taking place in the hearts and lives of millions as they live in harmony with the FUNDA- MENTAL of Whom you ‘say I Am. By living‘ in this recognition, and by is ‘ ~ \ . . . ‘ - M‘ .‘ ' " x : l \’ . ‘ ., . . ‘ RIGHTEOUS we stand. Page 4 bringing your bodies into subjection to the GREAT PRINCIPLE, you findyour old undesirable conditions are changed physically, mentally and spiritually because of the change of your mental condition firstly and because of bringing your body into subjection to RIGHTEOUSNESS, TRUTH and JUSTICE, of which I am stressing. 5 PREACHING IN DEEDS AND ACTIONS We are no longer merely preach- ing in Words, but we are preaching in deeds and actions, causing the actuated Words of GOD to be ex- pressed so vividly that all can un- derstand it as they see it manifest- ed._ It is‘ a privilege to realize the ‘minds of those with whom I come in contact are being ‘renovated. They are being changed from the Adamic -state of consciousness to the CHRIST ‘CONSCIOUSNESS, to RIGHTEOUSNESS fro-m unr;gh7t- eousness, to TRUTH from falsity. ’ S For this cause we are rejoicing and we are exceedingly glad to continue ' to lift up the Standard whereby it cannot be rightfully criticized. When- soever criticism might arise from any angle expressible, it is an out- ward expression of praise coming forth when t-he critcism shall have been ‘understood distinctly. It is in- deed Wonderful! (It's truly Won- derful, FATHER!’ echoed the listen- ? ..ers.) For this cause we are rejoicing to see the Great Unfoldment of this of which I am stressing taking place in the hearts and lives of millions, until after a while all of the gov- ernment of (our present civilization, I mean the political government, not only in this Country but in all Countries, shall recognize the Law of" the Spirit of Life that was in CHRIST JESUS, transposed to the GOVERNMENT PLATFORM, to RIGHTEOUSNESS, TRUTH and JUSTICE upon which The transposed version of. the Law of the Spirit of Life "V that was in CHRIST JESUS, since ' it ,j has been reincarnated, re-incul- cated in the hearts and lives of mil- “Ions, since it has been drafted from ,,v1tl1e.éenscious minds of the true and we have established it f9,»§l GOVERNMENT 9‘ ‘ upon which all of the The “SPOKEN worm" future government must be founded upon. STRESSIN G LIM-ITLESS BLESSINGS It is a privilege to realize the facts concerning the mystery,— things that were imaginary are no longer an imagination, but they are our conscious conviction and realiza- tion, for I have brought them into outer expression by tangibilating them. I tangibilate them——mate'ria- lize whichever—th.at which has been surmised, and I cause mankind to realize that which was once a mere imagination, for these limitless Bless- I ings we are daily stressing, I have inculcated them, I have transmitted ‘them and I have incarnated them in the hearts and lives of the children of men, and I have caused them to think on these things vividly incon- sciousness and bring their physical bodies into subjection to the GREAT FUNDAMENTAL. By so doing I am bringing into outer expression and into materialization that which was merely imaginary and mental and spiritual. , ~39’ ~ PUTTING INTO PRACTICE /" THE GOLDEN RULE Oh it is a privilege to realize that which is Just and Right and Good can be materialized, as well as that which is unjust, untrue and unreal. The materialization of the negative has been a reality, and the legaliza- tion of the negative, but how about the POSITIVE? .

Keep Your Face to the Light By RALPH WALDO TRINE A knowledge of the fact that we grow into the likeness of those things we contemplate, of those things that * we live mostly with in our mental world, is one of the greatest assets of human life. Thought is at the bottom of all progress or retrogres- sion, of all that is desirable or un- desirable in life. We have it entire- ly in our own hands to determine what type of thought we entertain and habitually live with; thereby it is that we are the makers of our own good or ill fortunes. A knowledge also of the fact that it is not what we actually acoom- plish at any particular time or times, but what we earnestly endeav- or to accomplish, makes the road plane, train and ships, and yet HE is everywhere at once; HIS arms are stronger than the strongest army, HE cares for us, and we serve HIM. HE trains us in our thoughts and habits. HE ‘brings u.s our food from the oountry. HE brings us our heal- ing when we are sick, and protects our health when we are well. HE punishes our enemies. Therefore, the Bible says, GOD is the King of Kings, the Ruler of the HIS LAW is just, before which no man is superior than an- other. He judges kings and presi- dents and generals by the same standards as he judges us. A corpo- ration before GOD is as weak as we are, We gladly give up our bodies to the service of our GOD. Our nation is all the men and wo- men who work for GOD. The kingdom of GOD is in our homes and our factories, We are born into HIS kingdom and we live in HIS kingdom. These are the words of the prophets. These are the words of the holy men. These are the words of the good men. These are the words of the men wealthy in spirit and means. somewhat taken up quite a little time talking and reading, I know you all feel somewhat like eating.

Professor Sorokin of Har- tf-'V3.I‘d'~S Department of Sociology has "just completed a study of the last 5 2,500 years from a social and cul- ‘at, tural point of view. He came t-o the 3: conclusion that wars have been more frequent, not in periods of natmnal decline but ratheré in a nation’s era 7’.of political and eéonomic “blossom- King.” ,‘ Since we have been hearing a great deal recently about the inevitable ten- dency of fascist states to break out into war and about the theory that ‘X the -Germans and the Italians ﬁnd ejgreater spiritual satisfaction under a, dictator than in an atmosphere of democracy, we are in for a great sur- prise when we read Professor Soro- kin’s rating of the belligerent record ~7i:{.of the nations, Have the Italians and Germans gone to war more fre- '.-j quently than the English and the ,.;F‘rench,in the 2500 years covered by Qgthis professor's study? He startles “ with the ﬁgure that Germany has , e best rating among the outstand- ‘ ﬁg European nations. He «states ,1: Germany was , engaged in wars 1 only 28 per cent of the years of '1': history, whereas England had 56 per cent of her years disturbed by war. In other words, England’-s rec- ord, from a peace point of view, is twice as spotty as that of Germany. The percentage for Italy was given as 36 and that for Russia as 46. France stands next to England with 50 per cent, which means that the equivalent of eve-ry other year of her history was marked by war. “Do Democracies Make for Peace?” Almost every day one hears the plea repeated that the «democracies must unite to prevent war, So strong has this conviction been that democ- racies make for, peace, that Colonel House an-d Woodrow Wilson are re- ported to have put forth the sugges- tion at the end of the World War that the democratic nations alone unite to keep the world at peace. These tendencies have prompted your. World Observer to discuss this week the question, “Do Democracies Make for Peace?” Some students of America's war, policies remind us that our democ- racy =has lodged a considerable free», dom of action in the hands of the President. The president can move and has moved the military forces of our country without seeking or -se-. curing the consent of Congress. The president was behind General Andrew Jackson when he pursued the Semi- nole Indians into Spain’s territory of Flori-da with “a result that Spain shortly thereafter ceded Florida to the United States. That same type of presidential ac- tion occurred in connection with the struggle of Texas to free itself from Mexico. Our army generals were given a free hand with the result that we laid Mexico low and expand- ed our territory to the Paciﬁc Coast. It was the President and not Con- gress who moved us into the Ha- waiian Islands, Puerto Rico and Pan- ama. It was the President and not Congress who ordered our ﬂeet to Hong Kong two months before we declared war on Spain and so en- abled us to take over the Philippines. The President ﬂuctuated between an embargo on loans to belligerent pow- ers and the ﬂoating of loans, during the early period of the World,War. It was the President, without the consent of the people’s representa- tives in Congress, who decided that loans to warring nations were per- missible. It is to this decision that a considerable body of American opinion attributes our having gone to war in 1917. power is reserved to the President under the new neutrality bill that Congress is adopting this week, be- fore the existing law expires on April 30th_ “Territories” Violate Declaration of Independence Professor Charles A. Beard holds that we violated -the underlying prin- ciple of the Declaration of Independ- ence when we took over other terri- tories, for our democracy had resolved to be a union of free states, not a union that included subject states. It has also been evident that though our democracy stood for self-dete:r—, mination as an idea and ideal, it did not stand back from interfering Nicaragua, Haiti, Mexico and else- where in this hemisphere. In the in- stance of Mexico, it led us into a small war just prior to our entrance into the World War. ‘ " Our missionary zeal .in behalf of democracy tempts us to rally to a proclaimed struggle for democracy, though we have not gone as far as the French after 1989 when they sought to force democracy upon eve- ry area they could control. It is a zeal that is not peculiar to the lead- ers -of Soviet Russia, who have ac- tively or theoretically advanced the notion of world revolution to estab- lish the Communist form of state uni- ver.sally_ V The rallying cry in 1917 was to make the world safe for de- mocracy. That same slogan may again be put forward to draw us in- to the wars of Europe. The slogan has the force to blind us to many other issues that are fundamentally to blame for the outbreaks of war that engage democracies, «outbreaks for which the democracies may them- selves be responsible. Nations Now Fight Befo-re Declaring War The conﬁdence has been growing‘ that though our democracy has, in the past, committed itself to policies that led us to make war for terri- to-ries, for economic advantage or prelsumably for the defen-s_e of de- A similar latitude of ' If that _ amendment were to -be adopted to- , went into page 3 The “sromcn worm” nmocracy, we are unlikely to adopt such -policies in the future. We hear fincreasing. agitation for a popular . I ' referendum on war, whereby Con- gress’ decision to declare war would be effective only if the people ratiﬁed it. This agitation usually stipulates that su-ch referendum shall be re- quired except when our country or territorial possessions are invaded. proposed constitutional morrow, our citizens would still be . subject to the danger of war involve- ment for the simple reason that the test is not whether -our Atlantic and Pacific shores were invaded, but whether the Philippines or the Ha- waiian Islands were attacked. Our annexation of territory in the Paciﬁc Ocean has saddled us with a war danger that we sh:all never be able to shake oil’, until we -are willing to set those territories completely free. Still another problem that must be ironed out in this idea of a popular referendum on war is one that grows out of the present trend of govern- ,ments to attack and invade without declaring war. Japan went into China without declaring war. Italy Ethiopia in a similar fashion. L As against those who suggest that we free ourselves of our possessions in the Paciﬁc, there is the point of View that with airplanes able to cover the tremendous distances they do, we must have the Hawaiian Islands, on- ly 2,400 miles off our Paciﬁc Coast, as our ﬁrst line -of defense against any possible invasion from Asia. This "fear of an Asiatic invasion of our Pa- caﬁc shores, with continental Asia over 5,000 miles distant, has puzzled those who maintain that the greater source of danger is continental Eu- rope only three thousand miles away. All of our naval maneuvers have recently been -concentrated in the Pa- ciﬁc. Our citizens have thus been made to feel that there lies the dan- ger to the United States, although a program -of defense approved by the people, has never been developed or presented. Such a program of de- tense would enable us to decide more -_ clearly what it is we are seeking to I defend in the Paciﬁc an-d whether our __ _economic and political needs require -us to —commit; ourselves to the de- -griensei mi tine Philipp:in_es~ or the Ha- rmiiian ,Islands_. The people of England, including the House of Commons, lack the same privilege of «determining what policies shall\"dictate their country's program of defense. Neither we nor the Eng- lish control our destinies that even- tually lead to war. As long as our people are content to leave the de- fense program to a military strategy board of our War Department and our Navy Department, acting with and sometimes independent of the President, our democracy will, under these conditions, be faced with the constant threat of war. As long as the people of democracy are satisﬁed to throw a cloak of secrecy around the reasons for our military depart- ments’ demands for a constantly growing number of naval and air- plane bases, and a constantly expand- ing number of naval vessels, just so long will democracies face the pos- sibility of going to war without the decision of their people or their elect- ed representatives.

V Certain crops such as beans, peas. clover, and the like are known to re- turn nitrogen to the soil through nodules on their roots, Nitrogen ﬁxed in the soil by such plants is es- timated by considering the size of the crop. The average slope of land in the United States was found, the amount of rainfall, and the type of crops grown on each average land slope. From this data it was possible to de- termine the average loss by erosion. Losses by water «draining through the earth and carrying off chemicals were checked by a lysimeter, a large watertight concrete box, open at the top and ﬁlled with soil. Glass tubes set at various levels drain off seep- age into sealed jars outside the box. Analysis of water samples revealed the amount of chemicals lost through leaching. H Soil losses from harvested crops were computed only after analyses of 100 different crops in the 48 States. These ﬁgures indicate that the coun- try each year loses approximately 5 million tons of nitrogen, 3 million tons of potassium, a million tons of calcium, a half-million tons each of magnesium and sulphur, and nearly 700,000 tons of phosphorus. Livestock removes nearly twice as much nitrogen and phosphorus as is removed by harvested crops, while calcium, magnesium and sulphur thus removed is also greater than that taken by harvested -crops. Worse than these losses, according to one authority, are those which result fno rnthe carelessness or ne- glect of farmers. Especially in the West, where wheat stalks are burned by -the sun in the absence of “cover crops,” are these losses noticeable, “These -losses are not necessary,” the same writer points out. “In con- trast to such wasteful methods are those in Europe, where land hand- A \ Page 90, _ E it It has long been known that noise in bulk is a deterrent to comfort, even that some types of noise are more fatiguing than others. Hither- to means of measuring noise have been elaborate and expensive. An electrical device which reach- es into a tangle of factory noises and singles out the one that frazzles workers’ nerves has been perfected by a Cambridge manufacturer, ac- cording to Industry, official publi- cation of the Associated Industries of Massachusetts. The new device is compact, easily portable and so simple that the operator needsonly push a button, turn a knob and read the dial, -the publication says, Employers generally have realized that noise has an appreciable ef- fect on typists andlclerks and have gone to some pains to soundproof their offices. Similarly manufac- turers have recognized the dangers and losses due to smoke, gases and exposed gears and belts and have taken steps to minimize them. But little has been do-ne about factory noise. Dr. Donald A. Laird cites an in-, A stance where reduction of the noise level in a factory assembly room lowered the rejected parts from 75 per cent to 7 per ce-nt and increased assembly speed by 38 per ‘cent, The new sound level meter con- sists of a microphone, a wide-range, high-gain. amplifier and a rectifier and indicating meter.

No pea-ce p-arleys of any sort were scheduled. in -their -stand that the next move must come from the hotel operators, whose 6,000 guests are totally with- out service. , The strike chiefs, conﬁdent of vic- tory, said «overtures 'had already been made but had not reached a deﬁnite stage. Sure of Victory Hugo Ernst, secretary of the joint dboard of the culinary unions, strike s-trategy directorate, said: “The battle is on, as far as we are concerned, and we are convinced the hotels cannot hold out another 24 hours, The next move is up to them. No meetings have been scheduled.” Managements, strikers, and guests all appeared to accept the situation with equanimity. . Pickets Mardh Pickets with red sashes bearing the legend “A; F.

The list of strikebound hotels was increased to _16 when union workers were pulled out of the Hotel Charles.

Custer of Millwood, New Jersey _ . . directed by Mr. Clarence V. Howell, Director of Reconcilia- tion Trips, entered the Private Dining Hall, where FATHER was Lecturing. The Group had already dined in the Public Banquet Hall, in the lower part -of the Building, and by means of the Amplifying System, they were able to hear the Great Message that FATHER gave while they -also par- took of their meal. However they desired to see the LORD, therefore, completing their dinner downstairs, they attended. the Services i-n the Up- per Dining Hall. The Private Dining Hall was well fitted, but courteously the Foilwxers crowded together to make room for the large group of visitors. From time to time, the many groups and parties who come to vis- it us, and to see the activities «of the - PEACE MISSION MOVEMENT, re- quest to hear the LO-RD, and at times the Folloxvers; but they rarely desire _ to give any expression themselves in exchange, We are reminded, ‘7A fair Hence, in lieu of this fact, we do expect those who come always seeking to receive something, to give out something, -that there may be no moral or men- tal, nor Spiritual embarrassment or obligation.

Murphy has at la.-stgstarted his long-awaited inquiry into the inter—relationships of government and the economic life of New Hamp- shire with a view to determining the real wealth of the State and what reorganization of government is desirable better to serve the needs of the people. Under authority of the Legislature, he appointed a “Commission to Promote the Wealth and Income of the People of New Hampshire.” “In my opinion,” the Governor said in appointing the commission, of which he will serve as chairman, “the findings will prove of great value, especially in connection with taxation problems. “A perfect example of the diffi- culties encountered under our pres- ent system of levying taxes by guess-work is afforded by the ex- perience of ‘the Federal Government. “Some time ago it was estimated that the income to the national go-v- ernment from taxes on the incomes of individuals and corporations would total ’$5,828,000,000. It now develops that the actual yield will be short of the estimate by be- tween $300,000,000 and $500,000,000. “Does this failure of tax receipts, to meet estimates mean that taxes are beginning to ‘dry. up’ the source of revenue and make for poverty? Are we eating our ‘seed corn’?

Not- ably his remarks on currency and the general subject -of wealth pro-. duction. Said Herr Hitler: “Believe me, we would have saved ourselves unheard-of anxiety and et- forts for the moment if we had gone the road other nations are go- ing. ‘Our method demands more work and worry, more mental con- centration than to let the paper money machines run. “It is easy enough to say, ‘Today we shall raise wages and itomorrow prices and then we shall raise wages again. That is a temporarily pop- ular policy. The crash must come, however. The individual does not live on paper money but‘ on the total production of his fellows. That is the simplest principle of National So- cialis_t“~‘econ=omy. “Believe me, when we see wage increases abroad followed by rising prices and higher prices followed by Wage increases and double price rises and double wage rises, we could do that too, Then comes the de- valuation of money and then new re- valuation. ' “Our principle is more difficult, but it is more honest. In the end the increase in production which we seek benefits our whole nation.” He also declared, “We must live with one another. No one can remain outside this com- munity. You cannot draw apart, you are dependent on one another, and this brutal fact results in the ne- cessity for natio-nal unity.” Reverting again to the German lack of important raw materials, he declared: ‘_‘It is our duty to procure such raw stuffs, employing every oppor- tunity. As far as this ‘is possible by exchange with other nations, it is well. As far as that is not possi- ' ble, we cannot admit that it is im- possible. -On the contrary, we must, mobilize all our intellectual powers and our will power to help ourselves with what ‘We have” _ . .

Mean Greater Rainfall Tucson, Ariz.—Higher altitude means greater rainfall, in the moun- tain lands of the Southwest, VV. J. Cribbs of the Southwestern Forest and Range Experiment Station here has found, in the course of several years of careful precipitation mea- surements. Yuma, Ariz., at the low altitude of 191 feet, receives an average yearly rainfall of only 3.47 inches, while Bisbee, at 5,425 feet, gets 19.12 inches, reports Science Service. Of importance in adjusting herd size to range area is the fact, brought out in Mr. Cribbs’ study, that the higher altitudes not only receive a larger total annual rain- fall, but that they get a larger pro- portion of their total amount in the summer. Thus, at elevations of less than 1,000 feet, not much more than a third of the scanty precipitation comes in -summer, whereas on heights between 5,000 and 5,500 feet considerably more than half of the much greater moisture income ~ is a summer gift.

A Committee of ‘the New Alpha- bet plans to establish 40 alphabets, with grammars and dictionaries this year. Much illiteracy within Russian territory is blamed on the fact that the Babel of languages was in the past poorly provided with alphabets. Marty languages had no alphabet, or used Arabic and other systems dif- ficult to learn. Since the Russian 'revolution, 70 languages, spoken by 25 million people, have been provided with latin'.zed alphabets. Over 600 print- ing shops turn out literature in the new alphabets, and typewriters for me new styles of type and stenc- graphic systems for various lan- guages have been devised, Page I8 \ . , V The ‘-‘SPOKEN WORD" Tuesday, May‘ Then I Say, Let All of the Earth Keep Silent and Let con Speak in Compassion Love and Mercy—FATHER DIVINE J A When You Vividly Visualize the Perfect You’ Tend to Materialize It and Bring ~ “OUR FATHER’S MESSAGE” AT _THE BANQUET TABLE, NO. 20 WEST 115TH STREET, NEW YORK CITY, SATURDAY AFT- ERNO0N,_ , APRIL. . SEVEN_- TEENTH, 1937 A.D.F.D. TIIVIE: 2:25 P.M. It is a great privilege, as says FA- THER DIVINE, to realize every pos- itive assertion, expression, etc, can be manifested outwardly and be made a Living Reality. Through this light of Understanding, we can see how necessary it is to even think positive, as wel-1 as to act so, that when the development of the unuttered thought, and the unseen act is ‘brought to light and «presents itself before the‘ eyes of all the people, it -c-annot reﬂect any shame upon us, as the producers of the result of the thought or the act. These great daily Lessons which come forth by GOD alone, are mak- ing the people mentally, Spiritually and physically clean. They are puri- fying the minds of men, and ca-using them to hunger after RIGHTEOUS- ‘NESS, The base things of the earth no Longer appeal to them. They ab- hor them, for their minds have been cleansed and their bodies purged, and they are now Living Sacriﬁces unto GOD, standing in the mi-dst of the people pure and clean, speaking a new language, a language of purity, with naught to soil or deﬁle their mentality, neither their tongues. They seek after the things of Heaven, and not after the trash Of the earth with its deﬁlement, its lusts a.nd its ‘passions, for they have been made NEW and TRUE by the Redeeming Grace of GOD. They a.re Angels, and -their thoughts have been elevated, therefore, they possess /the Mark of the Lamb in their forehead, and not the marks and lblotches of Egypt, as so beautifully explained -by GOD our FATHER, Who has 1-oosed the Seal, and is revealing the Mysteries, ,——,—those «things that no man knew. ‘ MESSAGE is a GEM.

I AM still stressing the sig- niﬁcance of the unity of Spirit, of Mind, of Aim and of Purpose, and the Recognition «of GOD’S ACTUAL PRESENCE that causes you to have limitless Blessings beyond measure. That little Composition long sin-ce composed, being sung, reiterated over and over, this has been the experi- ence of millions, but through your conscious and continued reiteration of sucha POSITIVE Affirmation as it may be termed, the outward expres- sion of such will be your resu-It.

For this cause ve stressed the signiﬁcance olf ;_ you as individuals, producing 7 EOUSNESS, TRUTH and CE within yourselves firstly,—- - ansmitting it to others by liv- angelically, by bringing your 7 into subjection to the Great AMENTAL, th e CHRIST ‘ IOUSNESS as exemplified in CTERISTICS AND .

NOW I say the AC- PRESENCE of the Character- "and the Nature of your SA- _;'c- I stress the ACTUAL MNCE, because we know GOD'S A CE is with you. GOD is " everywhere, but GOD is not »on duty everywhere, sav-ing as in will allow His Active PRES- _‘to be put into effect, and be {in your business, profession rs; therevfore, I say, .the AC- “PRESENCE of GOD is the "ential, hence you should put the ACTUAL’ PRESENCE ‘ ngerto observe merely it SENCE» of ‘Gov as The “SPOKEN worm” an abstract expression,Kbut observ- ing the ACTUAL PRESENCE of GOD as put into effect and as was in effect in the Person of Jesus;——- Jesus ‘being the Great Love-Master as the Wayshower, as the Sample and as the Example for others, that they might copy after the Fashion HE had shown them; hence, the Pic- ture was out-pictured as an abstract expression that the conscious mental- ity of others might visualize the PERFECT; When they vividly visualize the PERFECT, they tend to materialize it, if they will only put the PER- FECT into actual service. Now GOD’S PRESENCE as the Perfect Picture, as the Perfect Expression, is EVER-PRESENT, but HE can- not be on active: duty and be put forth into expression, if you will not let HIM. Therefore, I say, if you will’ allow the ‘CHRIST Con- sciousness and the CHRIST’S Char- acteristics, with all of CHRIST’S Nature transmitted from the IN- FINITE to be put into actual ser- vice in you, through you and in your affairs, then and there, GOD is in actual service, on active duty, doing His Mission, and doing your bid- dings, apparently. Now aren’t you glad? (“Truly glad!” reiterated the Assembly.) GOD A LIVING FACTOR It is a privilege to realize every POSITIVE assertion or expression, yea, the very POSITIVE explana- tions or exclamations can be brought into outer expression and can be made a Living reality for some in- dividu.al. The POSITIVE is made REAL by your conscious recognition of GOD, as being POSITIVE and as being a Living Factor in your hearts, lives and affairs; but it cannot be made REAL if you do not know GOD is a Living Factor;—but if GOD to you is a Living Factor, the POSITIVE can become to be a Liv- ing Reality by your POSITIVE con- scious concept concerning your MAKER. As a Living Factor and as a Liv- ing Example, GOD ‘through His Con- descension came to the Earth Plane infthe children of men, to produce and to out-picture «His ‘Life to them, that they might ‘see HIM, and see- mg HIM you should copy ‘after the t t . Page Fashion as was requested of the children of Israel by Moses.——Copy after ‘the Fashion in building the Temple that I have shown you on the Mountain in the high Light of Spritual Understanding on the Mount Zion, above the mortal concepts of men, where the CHRIST has been translated, and manifested as trans- figure-d ‘there. You can copy after that Figure. Copy after that Pic- ture until by nature and character- istics you will produce it and bring it forth into expression, and become to be the Personifiers of such a PERFECT PITURE. GOD WILL EXPRESS EFFECTIVELY Then I say, the ACTUAL PRES- ENCE of GOD should be witnessed. You should bring the Life of CHRIST ‘through His Teaching, by living Evangelically whole-heartedly and by self-denial, into outer expres- sion, and into actual service, that ‘the Life of GOD might serve the children of men through you, through your dealings, through your works, actions and ways, because GOD can and will express effectively where- soever mankind will permit HIM. I have often declared, .and re-de- Clare I the same: “LET GO and LET GOD, and GOD will LET you, one and all.” Unto everyone who will let GOD in their lives by the Teaching of Jesus the CHRIST, by self-denial and by sacrifice, GOD will let them become to be the out- ward expression of HIM, as reflect- ed to them by the Spirit of His PRESENCE. Firstly you observe that mentally, as it was manifest- ed by living whole-heartedly con- secrated to the Great FUNDAMEN- TAL, the Service and the PRIN- CIPLE,——the reaction of such a concentrated life to the PERFECT will cause the PERFECT to be re- incarnated. The reincarnation of such an expression is as logical and as-» true as ‘the reincarnation and the reproduction of that of which one might look upon vividly and ma- terialize it in their physical system. MARKED FROM ONE ANGLE OR OTHER . There are thousands of people blotched and spotted and marked in different ways, because of something- their parents looked upon. They looked upon those things vividly.’ \ ‘ mory and Page 2.0 The “SPOKEN “WORD” Tuesday, May . 4. 1 , : « They gazed upon them pleasingly, or undesirably, displeasingly or stressfully, fearfully; in some way stressfully; it caused the reaction of such a concentrated thought to take form in the physical body of the child that was to be born. This‘ has been ‘the experience of thousands of people, the Universe over. The majority of them today in some way are marked from one angle or the other. ,They may not be marked physically, they may be marked mentally," they may be marked Spir- . itually, they may be marked by that birthmark of inferiority complex; they may be marked with the birth- Emark of superiority cao-mplex:~—(“It is Wonderful FATHER,”——shoute.d the great Assembly, which spoke in- ‘tuitively interjectingly.) Any detest- able tendency that has been stress- ed, within you, before you in your- self could and would come forth in- to expression and be outwardly mani- fested, by you becoming to be the “‘TangibilatoI"’ of that which was incarnated in your ancestors;—-if this is true from a physical point of view, how much more should the Life «of CHRIST as manifested and stressed, and through all of ‘the Religions of Christianity or Chris- tendom be, that the Life of CHRIST .might be stamped in you, and that you might become to be the Par- ta.-kers of CHRIST’S Nature, ‘through concentration and through the psy- chological point of view, such as I have explained to you. By this, we have stressed the PRESENCE of GOD, His Attributes, His Char- acteristics, His Nature and His Life and His Mind. SUBSTANTIATED AND - UNSHAKEN IN CONFIDENCE I have stressed it vividly, even to the sacrificing of the BODY of I MINE, that yo-u might be Part-akers of this POSITIVE concentration, and the reaction of such an inculcated ex- pression, as I AM stressing for you concerning the ACTUAL PRES- ENCE of GOD your SAV UR. When this is stamped in you in your consideration, vividly, when . you are substantiated and. -unshaken in confidence, then and there the very Life of CHRIST « is no longer merely, an abstract ex- pression ‘observed vaguely and dis- , invisibly, but it ‘becomes to me-. be visible, for such as you vividly visualize, you materialize it, and take it in your own system and ex- press it according to the ‘time and the season. Oh! it is a privilege to have the opportunity to stand in the Land of the Living, visualizing and stressing and materializing the POSITIVE, the REAL and the TRUE instead o-f the negative. By a constant con- - centrated thought on the POSITIVE, your minds are filled and are illu- minated with the Consciousness of GOD’S PRESENCE. By this, the adverse and undesirable conditions created by negative thinking, will be dispelled; for as light dispels dark- ness, even so ‘the POSITIVE Will dispel the negative by concentration in the POSITIVE direction. RIGHTEOUS GOVERNMENT WILL BE ESTABLISHED We shall have a RIGHTEOUS Government. This I have stressed, and I have not ceased to stress it with or without My PERSONAL PRESENCE. We shall have a. RIGHTEOUS Government. That which I have endeavored, I will ac- complish, with or without MY BODY. I shall accomplish it if it costs the sacrificing of many cities to convince the people. I often think of _Sodom and Go- morrah, and many other modern ex- periences of the inhabitants of cities, of the different cities, how ‘they could not and would not be convinced to believe the MESSAGE, saving by some disaster coming among them. Mortality as a rule, in the conscious concept of wicked- ness will not believe the REAL- ITY of your REDEEMER, saving as. they are convinced distinctly by something coming upon them de- structively. Negative thoughts will attract and draw destruction to them; constructive and positive thinking will attract -and draw ‘the constructive results and the positive conditions, but as you think nega- tively and create negation in your mentality, by prejudice, resentment, jealousy and other detestable ten- dencies, you will bring your bodies into subjection and under the juris- diction of that which is destructive. The reaction. of such an act of de- structive thntking will cause" un- ;' desirable -eohehtfiotts to result in your in experiences, will cause you to pressers of that which you have, stressfully visualizing by ' ne thinking; but remember, the -15 of such is equally true, and of .4 I have stressed and mani among you. POSITIVE THOUGHTS BRING POSITIVE RESULTS ,_ The POSITIVE has been an: pression transcending all I imagination, because ‘the POSI‘. thoughts of the true and the ful are so far above and beyon degrees of the human concepts: things; therefore, the POSI results are equivalently the sp Aren’t you glad‘?

It matters not what the results may be concern- ing you, it matters not what the results may have been, whichever, the very results will be made known by the things you have in mind, and by the way you are thinking today. WERE LIFTED MENTALLY Oh! it is a privilege to realize what GOD can and will do for man- kind. ‘You are lifted as you have said, and also sung in one of your Compositions: “From sinkingsand II-IE lifted me, With Tender Hands HE lifted me, From shades of night to plains of Light, Oh! Praise His NAME, HE lifted me.” Realizing you have been lifted from sinking sand, but remember, your freedom from those conditions as you were lifted, it was not by be- ing lifted physically, you were lift- ea mentally. You are lifted Spirit- ually, being lifted mentally from the mortal concept of things, from the mortal versions, from the mortal ideas and opinions of men; you are lifted from sinking sand, being lift- ed with Tender Hands. You are lift- ed with Mercy and Compassion. You are lifted with love and with kind- ness from your SAVIOUR. That is the way you are lifted, My Dears; —no longer being observed as be- ing lifted physically, but being lift- ed mentally. When you_ are lifted mentally effectively, your lifting will be an expression that will be such a mental elevation or advancement until your physical bodies will be lifted from the undesirable condi- tions they have been heretofore existing under. ' ALL POWER IN HIS HANDS Firstly, it is a mental and aspir- itual uplift. When you know you are lifted, you can substantiate your- selves in the consciousness of being lifted, and of GOD’S ACTUAL PRESENCE, 'VVho has lifted you. You can realize you have been lifted from the sinking ‘sands, the theories and doctrines and the mor- tal versions‘ of men. When you shall have been lifted from those things, you can rely and depend ‘on. I-IIM, Page 21 Who has ALL POWER in His Hands. I say, “With Tender Hands HE lifted you,” with the tenderness of His Mercy and Compassion. HE has ALL POWER in His Mercy and Compassion; ALL POWER in His Dominion and Authority as express- ed and manifested among you. LOVE rules the world. It has brought the Powers of men down to recognize things beyond the comprehension of all human understanding. They are now recognizing a SUPREME Pow- er in the hearts of ‘men, by the Love of HIM Who liveth forever. Then I say, being lifted from these condi- tions, and living in the Conscious- ness of GOD'S ACTUAL PRES- ENCE, I heard you say: “I will not be denied.” WALKING IN THE LIGHT ‘The particular Composition I heard you say: “I will not be disturbed.” That is why you will not be disturbed for GOD lifted you, and has given you your real Emancipation, and “I will not be again entangled with the yoke of bondage,” for you will there- transposed version of that fore walk with HIM in white, as said the Composition. Those of you who have been actually lifted, and who are walking in the Light of this Understanding, you can say, “From these conditions I have been lifted, and I will not return to them again.” ‘vii. Just think of what you have gone through; what you have suffered through sin and folly, through ig- norance and through misunderstand- ing, but by the Spirit of MY PRES- ENCE and by the PRESENCE of My Spirit, since you have been lift- ed, you need not fear going through those conditions and experiences any longer, for lo, I AM with you,——and the .beauty part of the great Unfold- ment of GOD’S PRESENCE» and of His Works among u-s, is that through His Condescension as HE has lifted you and brought you your real Emancipation, the very Spirit of MY PRESENCE will protect you against all hurt, all harm and all dangers. Aren’t you glad? (“So Glad!” remarked the throng.) SPIRIT FREE-S FROM SIN AND VICE ' If My Spirit can free you from \ , (As- ‘we. of men shall fail. ~- Page 22 sin and from vice and from crimes and could give you your real Eman- cipation from such tendencies and from suchcharacteristics, My Spirit and My PRESENCE can also lift you. It can free you from such conditions existing in others. Now aren’t you glad? (“Truly glad!” re- plied the multitude.) You were willing to sacrifice your life for wickedness, even so will My Followers be willing to sacrifice their lives for RIGHTEOUSNESS, and stand and withstand against every opposition, and will declare oppositions cannot prosper, for Iwill prohibit anything that may arise in opposition from pr-ospering against us. GOD CAN AND WILL EXPRESS SUPREMELY Oh! it is a privilege to realize if “the other fellow” is mighty, GOD is ALMIGHTY. If “the other fellow” has a body, GOD has a BODY. Jot these thoughts down in yo-ur vocabularies, and those who rise’ in opposition, remember GOD has bodies as well as you have bod- lies, and GOD has a Spirit as ‘well as you have a Spirit, GOD can and will meet you on any ground, for GOD is OMNIPOTENT, OMNI- SCIENT and -OMNIPRESENT; GOD can and will express HIMSELF Supremely, and will manifest HIM- SELF perfectly;——eve-n the thoughts I will declare if the TRUTH is here, it is indeed "wonderful; those who think antagonistically and con- flictingly shall be confounded, I will confound their minds, confound their ideas. I shall confound their hearts. Iwill confound their versions. I will confound them completely mentally until they will be obliged to recog- Vnize GOD’S ACTUAL PRESENCE having control over their conscious and subconscious mentality to con- ». trol them. BROUGHT INTO SUBJE-CTION BY THIS GREAT ' CONVERSION It has long since been declared, the harnessing of the conscious men- tality and the subconscious mental- 'ity of humanity, and the harnessing ‘ of their ’,’_characteristics and all of. their de- Y‘ tes.table_ _te_ndencies, these things have * .beén'-factually harnessed and brought energy. their detestable .a...,._.,‘ r. it‘? it "P "The “SPOKEN worm" into subjection" by the Spirit of My ACTUAL PRESENCE. Those who were wicked and debauched and fill- ed with sin and vice and crime of every kind, have been brought into subjection by this Great Conversion, because the conscious mentality, their detestable energy and tenden- cies have -been harnessed and brought into subjection by this Great Conversion and directed in a different direction. If this be true, how about you? Now isn’t that wonderful! If the mentality can be harness- ed, even your detestable tendencies and characteristics and detestable fancies and pleasures, all of them, can be harnessed, with -all of your energy, how much more can GOD transform them, and bring them in- to subjection, and cause them to serve HIM? If it is necessary for your detestable tendencies, fancies and pleasures and all of your de- testable characteristics, since you have been converted, to be brought into subjection to serve ME, I will use them effectively. Now isn’t that wonderful? Why? Because as your detestable tendencies and char- acteristics and pleasures were de- structive, I will use them construc- tive for the purpose of establishing RIGHTEOUSNESS, TRUTH and JUSTICE, and by the constructive purpose with which I use your ten- dencies, fancies and pleasures, since you have been converted, I will pro»- tect RIGHTEOUSNESS, TRUTH and JUSTICE, and I shall establish it. RIGHTEOUS GOVERNMENT WILL NOT BE HINDERED The RIGHTEOUS GOVERNMENT PLATFORM shall not be prevented. It shall not be hindered. Every- thing that rises in opposition, Ishall put it down. I shall put it down in whatsoever way it takes to put it. down,—-I shall put it down.- GOD ALONE SHALL REIGN and none shall hinder. It is indeed wonder- ful! Truly might have one said,—~—"’~g__ "Am I a soldier of the Cross, ii,‘ A Follower of the LAMB, And shall I fear to own His CAUSE ii Or blush to speak His NAME?” \ I There are those of My Eollowers, _ the ,U;1iv_erseAi over/_ I who are n_o_t- . I. ‘ ,. V ., Tuesday, May ‘4 if‘, ashamed to own His NAME. shall not fear nor blush to ‘I His NAME, for the Blood h‘, it all, and of the Gospel of C :1 they are not ashamed. Aren't, glad? I heard Paul say, = have heard you reiterate the A, by inspiration: “I am not w» of the Gospel of CHRIST for. the Power of GOD unto Salvati" everyone that believeth.” I w‘ clare My Followers shall ashamed to own My N ~« (“PRAISE Your Holy NAME,’_ claimed the Enthusiasts.) H Oh! it is a privilege to r‘ the Condescension of GOD t children of men, of His Love‘7 Mercy, and in Tender Comp HE truly came, and brought . real Emancipation, but they c be emancipated by bringing A bodies into subjection and pro_ ed, as the Composition say shall not allow them to prosper longer, not even so _much sight of the eyes of the child 3 men. See the willingness of My_ ple. It is written: , “In the day of My Power,_ People shall be willing.” H- I can see them volunteering-I service to serve ME. Then I"’ let all of the earth keep silen let GOD speak in His Comp in His Love and in His Mercy lo, I will be with you if you‘; Evangelically now, henceforth-» forever, and none can hurt nor for the mouth of GOD has dec__ it. I thank you.

TIME: 11:25 P.M. Majestically, FATHER DIVINE, -the Dean of the Universe, teaches and unfolds momently and hourly of His Wisdom, Knowledge and Understand- ing from His Inﬁnite Storehouse of , Salvation. Dynamically and spontaneously come forth these marvelous lessons of Truth, for the good of the Nations of the Earth in the evidence of His Characteristics and Nature, expressed outwardly and manifestedly in the blessings of Joy, Peace, Life, Love, Health and Happiness and Success and Prosperity,—that of which man and his worldly connections cannot give, even in return for the wealth of the world, These attributes are the reward of GOD, that He Alone carries with Him, and daily He is rewarding those who are living and doing according to his Plan and ac- cording to His Purpose. While traveling from Sayville, Long Island to Bridgeport, Connecticut to attend the Righteous Government Fo- rum, the news of the Hindenburg disaster came over the radio. This apparent tragedy is shocking to the mortal mind, it is true, but the Mind of GOD tells us differently, as He speak-s in Words so -Scientific, Logical and Practical they can neither be disputed nor refuted,——and not even so much as to be questioned -‘by those analytically inclined. In this pro- found Message FATHER touches briefly in portion, upon this subject which, in itself is enlightening and explains clearly why such disasters as these happen at times in the World -of Science and Invention. The children from Bridgeport -and nearby towns, and those who had driven from New York to attend the Forum Meeting, gloried in the Per- fect Contact that had been made in the privilege of being in the Person- al Presence of the Great CREATOR I-Iimself,——a conscious conviction in the hearts and minds of millions the world over. Although the meeting was for the specific purpose of discussing that which pertains to Righteous Govern- ment, several testified in thanksto FATHER for their new-fou-nd free- dom from the shackles of material- ‘ -I ism and, apparently, it was this=sub- ject that brought forth the most’- glorious Message herewith recorded, ‘ for all who will receive it. Read these beautiful WOl‘dS of Life , J and gain the beneﬁts derived there- from! A At the conclusion of one of such testimonies, FATHER sang: “If you let Me, I will let you,‘-_, If you let Me, I will let you, If you let Me, I will let you; I will let you go through. If you will love Me, I will love’ my ' I ‘Page’ 4 If you will love Me, I will love you, If you will love Me, I will love you, I will love you more and more,” PEACE EVERYONE: That is just a little Composition (If a few words I «brought forth as a Message for consideration: ‘If you -let Me, I will let you.’ _-In speaking of your freedom, your freedom comes by the letting,——i:f you « let go and let GOD, GOD will let ‘you. This is an often rehearsed statement but it is your experience, after many of you were forced or in other words, obliged to do so; but how marvelous it is when you can be volunteer Sol- diers who are willing to let go and let GOD without any opposition, with- out any coercing, but by your own volunteer volition and by you being governed by your Highest Intuition and -by you, individually cracking the shell of mortal limitation,——breaking through the adverse and undesirable , conditions and all of the versions and ideas and opinions of the people. Freeing yourselves from their ver- sions comp1etely,———such an act of your dutyis the act of giving birth, in other words being born out of the , Adamic State of Consciousness to the Christ Consciousness. Then I say: ‘If you let Me, I will let you, if you let Me, I will let you, Iwill let you go through.’ It is a privilege to realize, so free as you allow Me in you to be, in words, deeds and actions, even so free will I set you; I will set you as free as you allow Me to be, ‘ , RISE ABOVE EVERY MORTAL VERSION Now remember, I am your Highest Intuition, Intuitively speaking with- ‘in you, Intuitively moving within you, desiring to have free access to move Volitionally, to speak Volition- ally and to act otherwise Volitional- ly; but when you allow your mortal concept of things to bind you -by the mortal versions of men, you will ﬁnd yourselves led captive back into con- demnation and -sin, if you will let I ‘ them,—-but if you will let Me, I will let you; and if you will be Faithful and if you will be True, I will let you go through. Now, as far as what men or man- .kind" might say, you should rise in The «SPQKEN wean’? consciousness aboveevery mortal ver- sion, over and above all of the the- ories and doctrines of the children of men and revel into the Glorious Liberty of the Sons of GOD, know- ing within yourself your Emancipa- tion can or will,—and only can come throughby the letting. BRINGING YOUR REAL EMANCIPATION So long as you will allow yourself to be handicapped mentally, spiritual- ly or physically -by what others may think or say, it is a matter of im- possibility for you to Joe Eternally Free. Your Emancipation comes by the Realization of such an Idea and .all such opinions that may -come from the mortal version; by the Realiza- tion of your conscious mentality, by the stilling of yourself as an indi- vidua.l,—each of you will bring to yourself into outer expression, your Real Emancipation. As the Emancipator, it is true, I am here, but yet you cannot be eman- cipated unless you let Me,~in other words, unless you let Him, as it may be termed. Your letting must be a living Reality even as your Eman- cipation can and will -be a living Re- ality if you will let Me. OPPOSITIONS MUST RISE So the Mystery is reveale-d: So fre-e as you free yourself in thoughts, words, deeds and Righteous actions, even so free will I free you in your physical Bodily form, as well as in your mind For this cause it was essential for oppositions to rise that you might get your real Emancipa- tion f-rom those things that tend to bind. There are many mortal versions in t-he minds of the children of men that will handicap you. By the dif- ferent ways of expression, the ver- sions will come at times: ‘You are here and you should be mindful and think on those ‘things that pertain to you and yourself,’ here or there. Many thoughts will come from the mortal versions of -men, interjected and ‘under-mineingly’ inserted in your Words, ‘deeds and actions and in your expressions, telling you you should not do this or you should not do the other or you should do this or you should do the other. « So’ you must rise above the ver- sions of men by being governed, by Tuesday, May 11th, I your Highest Intuition and kno your Intutor by Inspiration, that yo , Intuition might be the Tutor, Whom you -say I am,~—Inspirational-C, ly and Intuitively teaching you leading you to your Real Eman-‘ -cipation, giving you your freedom ' from every angle expressible. “ YOU MAY BE FREE TO-DAY, BOUND T0-MORROW , You may be emancipated -today, " from some things and from all things that may have bound you heretofore, but tomorrow, yea even in an hour from now, there may come forth an T‘ expression in consideration by inspi- ration that you might allow the mor- tal version t-o bind you in and pro- I hibit you from speaking intuitively‘ or «moving volitionally or speaking f‘ Inspirati~onally,——or some other ex- " pression that the very Spirit of My ‘_ Presence would speak and act in you. At times the different ideas, the ‘ different opinions will come to test " you out to see whether you havga, arisen above .the mortal version of " men, I to bind you, such versions that would '. tend to handicap you from one angle . -or another, whenthose things get the upper hand of you just in the slight- " est degree, it will eventually bring '; you back captive into condemnation and bondage of sin and folly. ’Of course, it is for you to know intuitive- ’ : ly just what you should do. By con- ‘I centration on the Fundamental the ‘ reaction of your concentration will , give you an inspiration that will teach you or inspire you Intuitively ‘and your Intuition will be the Tutor H‘ speaking, but as I ‘speak externally apparently at this time by Intuition, 1 \I am speaking Inspirationally and In- ,5 That is the tuitively within you.

That the Mystery, ‘ So that which is without is spea "Such versions that would tend ﬁr Ma.y 11th," 1937“ , within Intuitively by Inspiration , _ 5d by Volition. Such an expression when it is coming forth from your ‘-.. concentrated thoughts on the exter- 3; n,a.l Fundamental, the reaction move by your own of such a concentrated thought Intui- tively within you, will be your High- est Intuition Inspirationally speak- ing. So then I say, -be governed by your Highest Intuition and be moved _ individual ‘I Volunteer Volition,—if you do, you will bring .the Christ’ within you to I fruition whereby the Christ Intuitive- ly will tell you everything that I would tell you Personally, and your Intuition would not be different from what I would Personally tell you. Then and there the Scripture is ful- -ﬁlled, in other words, the Gospel of the Epistle: ‘We shall be like Him.“ Intuitively you are like Him when you think and speak and act just as I do or would have you do, con- sciously from this point o-f view. 1'!‘ IS NO LONGER YOU From this point of view you are looking for Me to tell you. From this point of view‘ you are looking for me to tell you as your Tutor, but as I am Impersonal and am In- spirational, as I am Spiritual, -as I -am within you, then I say: Be gov- erned by your Highest Intuition, By so doing, you will be letting Me speak within you and I will be there Intui- tively, to tell you just what you would desire Me to tell you Personally,—— and just what I would say Personal- ly I will tell you Intuitively. That is the Mystery. That is why I stress the signiﬁ- cance of your concentration on the Fundamental and of your self-den-ial and consecration to the Fundamental, that you might have no other inlet for information saving from and to Him of Whom you are conc-entra.ting on. By transmission through your concentration, you will get the di- rect Intuitive Message, for I will tell you Intuitively by My Spirit within -you and by My Mind. Then, ‘It is no longer you,’ as the Apostle said, ‘but it is the Christ that dwells with- in you,’——and it is no longer Me to you as a. Person Alone, but to you then, in ‘Reality, I AM GOD; for man ‘tively, but another can speak , tell you something personally. fooutcl riot speak and act Within you « The <'s1=.-oximn wonn’ KNOW GOD IS TELLING YOU For this cause, I refrain from speaking as a person in touching along certain lines,——especially con- cerning yourself and concerning things that concern you, that you might be governed Intuitively, that My Spirit Intuitively might tell you within you, by My Mind. VVhen this is done you know within yourself definitely, it is not man, it is GOD Who is telling you, That is the Mys- tery,——and that is why the millions are sincerely believing Me and be- lieving My Message, because I did not tell them especially, Personally, but I told them Intuitively; and the very Spirit of My Presence speaking within them, fulﬁlled the Scripture, orthe «Gospel, whichever: ‘It is better revealed than told.’ If I would have constantly told you something Personally, try to convert you into something through My Per- sonally Consciously telling you, it would not have been in -Reality an In- spiration and you would not have, known Me in Reality, as your Savi- our. But, because I have told you and I am telling you daily Intuitively and Inspirationally, it is -a Message that is convincing when it comes In- tuitively, because you know man could not tell you Internally, man could only tell you externally,-um less it was done unconsciously by an individual through mental telepathy. LOST IN WAKE OF PRESENCE OF GOD But upon this Foundation, while you stand and concentrate on the Fundamental, man is lost in the wake of the Presence of GOD by the great Exhibitation of GOD’S Actual Pres- ence as He expresses Himselxf Men- tally and Spiritually Intuitively. -So that is the Mystery. When this is done, mankind is lost sight of «by the great exhibitation of GOD"S Actual Presence I am show- ing you deﬁnitely, by the Spirit of My Presence. It is indeed Wonder- ful, Manikind is lost in the great Un- foldment and in the great Mystery as I reveal it, and mankind as well as yourself, they lose their identity as individuals, and GOD will speak within" you Intuitively and will tell ycm of all the Myst.e.riie$- By this. yet; will knew Me dis- tinctly and will get all of the infers mation necessary, if you are sel£-'de- Page Q nied and consecrated and are a liv- ing sacriﬁce,——if you are a living sac- riﬁce once and forever, throughout all Eternity. But remember, thoughts and things will rise and wane.,—— thoughts and things will materialize, as -being termed the children of (hen; but remember the Positive thoughts and things can be materialized as well as the negative thoughts and things can be materialized. ‘PERFECT THOUGHTS C-OUNTERACT NEGATIVE Hence, for every negative thought presented for reproduction and for germination in your conscious or sub- -conscious mentality, conceive in your mental and -spiritual Conception -a_ Perfect Thought to counteract that negative thought you have conceived, and the Positive Perfect thought will also germinate in your mentality and in your physical body through your ‘spiritual development, as well as.‘Yha_,_t of the negative, which can and will germinate if you let it. ‘ - If a person would but stop and con- sider how signiﬁcant it is to use the , negative as a lesson,—-for you no,t-h- ing would be wasteful and nothing would be unproﬁtable; for each and every failure would help you some Victory to win, in -going forward. You have heard the original Composition: ‘Each Victory will help you some Oth- er to win,’—-but as GOD Is GOD, and can and will change all things, each failure will help you some victory to win; therefore, all things work to- gether for good.

IICSS. DISASTERS WILL PROVE OONSTRUCTIVE The Spirit declares: ‘He is calling ‘ His Own.’—All Wisdom, all Knowl- edge and all Understanding, all Skill and all Ability, all Culture and a1’; Talent, must come ‘to Him to Whom those Qualities and Attributes and Characteristics are due, that they , .might -be used to His Glory and Hon- S. or, in Righteousness, Truth and Jus- tice instead of being used in sin and folly and selﬁshness. Then I say. every seeming -disaster will prove more constructive than de- structive when the reaction of that destruction shall have built many structures of much more a greater power and an unfoldment of the skill and the ability of GOD in man. There- fore, it is not a failure, as far as Higher things and broad-mindedness .of'ftJ1e minds of the. children of men are" concerned, but of lower things , and of the narrow-mindedness of the , clzvildren of men, they may see things likethat, and other things to be a, failure and a total loss, because of a certain disaster,——but GOD, in His ' Own Inﬁnite Mind, can bring to the _. conscious conviction and the realiza- T...tion of the children of men: ‘All things work together for good to those who love Him and are called There- TRAVAIL -‘ . BEFORE BIRTH GOD in the midst of you is Mighty , -to Save,——will take the wrath of man to praise Him and cause it to rise :in opposition from time to time to ‘ spread His Name from shore to shore and from land to land. That is the Mission of GOD -on earth among men; therefore, I say, ‘be not dis- a , mayed what’er betides, GOD will take __care of you.’ Criticisms, accusations and fault-ﬁnding, and even condem- égnation, if such could be an expres- sion from any angle, all of these "things are but for the purpose of es- "tablishin-g the Truth and advancing ‘-‘the Kingdom, further and further, to ,‘Hi‘g-her. Perfected State of Expres- n,.,‘where, those conditions cannot oinen. Aren’t ‘you, glaidlx , ’ ‘It is Eternal Life to know the Only True GOD." Before anything is born, there must be a travail,———and the shell or outer covering of that which is to be delivered will give it some trouble in getting out, apparently. It is necessary that it should do it, that that which is coming forth into the world might have Victory over that from whence and out of which it is coming, If I would speak of an egg, that might be a. little more suitable and a little more modestly explained. If the chick could not pick its way out of the egg shell, he could not and would not have the Victory over the egg,—-but because it can, once it picks its way out of the egg s-hell, it does not have to return from whence it came. NOT NECESSARY TO RETURN TO OLD CONDITIONS Now, one says in the’ mortal con- cept of things, you must return to the place from whence you came, but once you have been completely delivered in Reality, you will not have to return to the place from whence you came. Even Nicodemus caught a thought from that, from the angle of expression wherein he was speaking: ‘How can a man -be born when he is old,-—can he enter again the second time and be born?’ In this he caught the glimpse of the Mystery of which I am stressing this evening. ‘ * S ‘ How can a man return back to the place from whence he came when he has won the victory over those con- ditions and over those things? Then what are you going back there for? Now aren’t you glad! And a chicken cannot turn back and be an egg. It can make an egg, -but it cannot turn back itself and be an egg. Aren't you glad! UNDESIRABLE CONDITIONS ONCE ESSENTIAL From sinking sand you have been lifted,—-from undesirable conditions you have been lifted,—~you have been given birth through and out of the mortal version and out" of und-esir- able c-onditions wherein you were handicapped; but it was essential for you to be in those conditions until you developed to the place in ex-_ pression whereby you could get, «or give yourself, your real deliverance by picking: , When you pick through the sh of mortal limitation, you have w the victory over the egg shell. ’1The,, egg shell had a business to hold any: thing in it it could hold in it, and anything that can be held under such ‘ a condition, it is not ﬁt for the King- dom,, neither is it fit meet for the -1, Master’s use. This is an actual proof, -—the chicken in the shell tha-t does 1" not come out, it is not fit meet,——I. _ say it is not fit for the bird iKing- " dom, neither is it fit meet for the Master’s use. ,_ " WISDOM FROM THE BIRD KINGDOM .. Now i-f there be a question in any-.," _ one of whom now, or in the future, , may hear this Message, tell them to go down to the bird Kingdom and _ get a little information Truly might -it have Solomon said on one occasion: , ‘Go to the ant, thou sluggard; con- sider her ways and be wise.’ Tell ‘ them to go down to the bird King- dom, of all of the different species of, the birds__ of the forest and of then, dunghills, and see if an egg that can- *. not be opened by the chick, or the little bird, and cannot be free from that shell, that chick is not fit meet ﬁor the Master’s use,——neither is that chick or egg ﬁt for the Bird King- .. dom, It is cast out on the dunghill, it is not fit meet for the Master’s use, neither is it good for the Bird , Kingdom, for it did not get its real * deliverance, its real emancipation, from the shell «of limitation; there- fore, it could not live in the Bird Kingdom because it did not get itsj‘-.; freedom_ Aren’t you glad! BREAK BONDS OF LIMITATION . Crack the shell of mortal limita- 5 tion. from every angle expressible and get your real emancipation and you will be ﬁt meet for the Master’s use 1. and you will be ﬁt and worthy of the Kingdom,—but unless you do, you are.7_' not and will not be, if you cannot‘? free yourself from the mortal limi‘-. tation of the shell and that which.!, has striven to hold you in bondage.” It is the egg shell’s duty to do it. 3 -So it is with everything from whence all. things came. It is t ’ duty of the seed to hold the Life Sub-, stance in -it, if it can; «but it is th duty of that lit-tle plant, through ge minati-on, to crack the shell of li tation and come out of the corn i , . -, -plant itself, that ‘it might ‘Hand express as perfectly as :1» seed did in itself by reproduc- ’——.and reproduce that of its own I ess that it might be increased "» multiplied according to the p1arL_ GOD. ‘wt or SHELL ,7 « CHAFF [Everything must free itself,——then -’ is the duty of .the shell, -or what- « ver it may be termed, it is the ‘ty of those things to hold it if L I y can.

It must be honest in a scientific sense, as are scales, weights and mea- sures, which conform to the require- ments of law and custom. It must be honest in a social sense, by pro- viding the greatest possible good to the greatest possible number. From the facts set forth in this booklet, it is beyond argument ‘that our pres- ent banker-controlled, gold-standard money system is both unscienti- fic and anti-social—unscientific as proven by its complete breakdown in seven great panics’ since 1873, panics which robbed the majority of our people of their entire savings in stocks, bonds, insurance and property. That it is anti-social is proven by the fact that in each of these panics the savings lost by the people were Won by ‘the men who had created the panics by mani- pulating their gold-standard money system and the bank credit founded thereon. If this gold-standard system could not function permanently in the days of hand labor and agricultural su- premacy, how can it possibly func- tion in this new age of mechanical production? Now that we have en- tered the era of electricity and pow- er machinery wherein production has been reduced to a‘ science, we must create a money system which will distribute the nation’s goods with the same scientific precision as was used in producing these goods. In brief, money must now cease to be a master and must become a servant. It must cease to control industry and trade, and become in- stead a mere conveyor-system by which goods are transferred from producer to consumer. In other words, money must now be created and controlled by the government and not by private bankers—for use by the people, and not for profit to the bankers. In the Saturday Evening Post of Feb. 1st, 1936, Henry Ford is quoted as follows: “We gain our living by production, distribution and service . . . I have faith that when we go in to produce all sorts of usable wealth for the purpose of supplying everybody, distribution will take care of itself. The only way ‘the govern- ment can help is to give us a mon- ey system that will easily convey this wealth from producer to con- sumer.” - ~ There can be no higher authority in these matters than Henry Ford. (?) Here in substance, the man who was the first to reduce mass pro- duction to a science, has declaredi that we can distribute all the goods the nation can produce—when the government has created a money system for the sole and singfe pur- pose of “conveying goods from pro- ducer to consumer.” To summarize——An honest money system will involve these essential principles :-— (a) It must be created and con- trolled by Congress. x (b) It must be free from inter- ference by politicians and private. bankers. (c) The money must be interest- free at the point of origin and be based on the total wealth of the nation and not on bonds or gold /owned by the bankers. _ V (d) The amount of money issued will be exactly sufficient to trans- fer the nation’s goods and services -no more and no less. Such a money system created and controlled by Congress will have these immediate and permanent ef- “ fects :- (1) It will remove forever the dangers of reckless inflation and banker-inspired deflation. (2) It will create a free and open market for the nation’s goods and services. (3) It will free industry and com- merce, labor and agriculture from all fears of panics and depressions -—because money would then be created and controlled for use by the people and not for profit by ' private bankers; and such _money once injected in the veins of’ indus- try and trade would never there-_ after be arbitrarily withdrawn.

He has billions and bil- lions of dollars to spend. _,He decides to spend them by building a great and. beautiful city. He buys a hundred square miles of land at a point where a river runs into the sea.‘ “Now,” says he, “I am going to lay out my city. I want it to be a busy city, but a beautiful one as well. There will be factories in it, railroad terminals, shipping wharves, airports, office buildings, and subways. I am not going to for- ‘get for a moment that possibly a million persons will make their homes here, and I don’t want factory smoke blowing into their windows or the noise of trains disturbing them at night.” , The Ideal city, «So Mr. Jones does a sensible thing. «_I-Ie picks out a certain district along the water front for shipping and for factories_ Into this section he runs a railroad, so that the manufacturers can ship their goods not «only by sea but by land. He picks out another district for residences. It is on high ground, overlooking the sea on one side and -the river on the other. Through this section he scatters many lovely parks H.e connects this ‘section with other parts of the city means of subways and under- ground highways. _ In another section, perhaps be- tween the residential and manufactur- cgnters, he builds office build- ings, stores, and theaters. This is the region of skyscrapers. But the tall buildings do not crowd upon each other. There is plenty of space .be- . T-he streets here are wide and straight, able to accommo- ‘date heavy traffic without congestion. There are parking spaces beneath the street level for automobiles, Air- planes land on and take off from" the flat roof of an immense build-i ing designed for the purpose. _ No Such City. '_Jones plans city from be-' .i'gf1ﬁning"_'to ,,end., knows. ‘where schools. will ‘be, where the water GUIDINGEA CITY’S GROWTH 0 supply system will be laid, ‘how sew- age will be disposed of, where the railroad (terminals and subway sta- tions will be built while his city is still a wilderness. That is city planning in its sim- plest form. Sensible, isn’t it? It is_ just as sensible and necessary, really, as planning a house and know- ing where the dining room and kitchen are to be before a single «brick is laid, , Unfortunately, there is no Mr. Jones and no such city as the one he dreamed about. Most cities—in- -cluding our own—weren’t planned; they “just grew”, like Topsy. A large city is never the work or_ pro- perty of one man. New York was built and is owned by thousands of landowners. Each built what he wanted whenever he wanted——or very nearly so. What has been the result? Nar- row, crooked streets, such as we have in the lower part of Manhat- tan, where the Dutch first settled along Indian trails; slums in which there is much crime and sickness; skyscrapers which shut out the sun- light from whole blocks and cause congestion in the street and sub- ways, “L” lines, and buses, smoke and dirt from factories which spoil otherwise good playgrounds. Early Planning. It would not be fair to say that no planning at all went into the making of New ,York City. It is true that for the first 185 years of its history the city grew without plan. planning step was taken. A plan- ning -board laid out Manhattan’s streets from the northern rim of the downtown section all the way up to 155th Street. The region laid out was mostly rolling hills, woodland, and farms at the time. People laughed at the idea of planning streets in a wilder- ness_ They laughed still more when the planners cut out a rectangle from 59th ‘Street to 110th Street, and from ‘Fifth Avenue to Eighth Avenue, and said, *"We will allow no one to build .here. This ‘win be kept asa park." _ Even the _plaiiners__t-heIriselves_ felt that they should make some ‘sort of apology for their daring scheme._._ “It .diti-on, the Zoning Law But, in 1811, an important“ _ _ _ , _ _ . ‘building heights in relation to the‘ may seem funny to some people our small city that we have prov s-pace for a population greater at any city this side -of China,” one oi} the board members wrote. Today; we know that what they did, fine as: it wasgwas not enough. The city has ' pushed nearly -100 blocks beyond? 115th Street. I We do not laugh at these early-f: planners for having set aside a rect- ‘, angle for a park, We are very gra- "1 teful. If it had not been for their " forethought, Central Park would not be in existence today. ' The Zoning Law. Greater New York as it exists to-{T day was formed in 1898, when Man- hattan, Brooklyn, the Bronx, Queens, and Richmond became a single cit-y._'_ This ,union was desirable in many ‘_ -ways, but it certainly did not help i‘ make New York a better planned“-. city. It merely gave us ﬁve un-; planned communities instead of one. 1, In another way the union was help"; ful, however. It opened the way to sensible, broad planning for the fu-7 ture—planning that would meet the ‘ ‘needs not only of one community but f of all. Unfortunately, little a-dvant- ".- age was taken of this possibility un- I ‘til 1916, when the Zoning Law was , passed. 1. The Zoning Law divided the city- into four kinds of zones: dence, (2) business, (3) retail, and ‘ (4) unrestricted. No shops, facto- ries, or garages were to be permit- ted in the residence zone-s. No ' factories were to be permitted in the * business and retail zones. In ad- restricted : width «of the streets unless the build- -. ‘dings were “set back” to allow for sun and air. The Zoning Law is still in op- 9. eration. ‘ The Board of Estimate has j the power to change zones or to/i enlarge them, or to make ex-cep—tionB_~ to .them_ Everyone admits that the 1 law is sound, but many say that f it has not been applied strictly 9, enough and that she zones weren't; always Well chosen. , Slow Rebuilding , ,5 ‘The chief -difficulty about appiyi’ c-ity planning, to New York is course, that the-_ city, is al-ready up.

J., May 10. The De- partment of Commerce will open pub- lic hearings here at 10 o’clock to- morrow morning in its investigation of the Hindenburg disaster of last Thursday night, which caused the death of 35 per.sons. South Trimble, J r., chairman of the. board, and its other members, Major R. W. Schroeder and Dennis Mulli- gan, chief of the Regulations and En- forcement -division of the bureau, ar- ‘rived here today and set up offices. They select-ed for their hearing a large room in a -corner of the hangar ‘in which the navy berths its diri— gibles, and in which the Hindenburg I was lodged overnight on its trips. Since the disaster the room has been used as first aid headquarters for the rescue squad, but it has been renovated in readiness for the bu- reau members. It was «understood that even the official -board would be limited to an investigation of the damage to navy property and injury to navy person- nel, and would not go into the causes of the disaster or the responsibility for it, unless the Commerce inquiry attaches any blame to the navy’s ground crew in -connection with the accident.

This was the new neutrality act, hurried through House and Senate by congressmen with an anxious eye on the turbid European war situation. The act is a compromise between the advocates of mandatory neutral- ity and discretionary neutrality——that is, a law which forces the President to forbid trade with ‘belligerent na- tions, and one which permits him to use his judgment in the light of cir- cumstances. The new act is not perfect—but it is regarded as being about as good as could be had, and great hopes for keeping America out of war are bound up in it. It places an embar- go on arms shipments to ﬁghting na- tions. And, in the event of war, it gives the President discretionary power to list goods that cannot be exported to belli-gerents; to deny bel- ligerents use of our ports, etc, Im- portant provision extends this au- thority to civil as well as inter-na- tion wars. “War in Europe this summer, per- haps; this fall, sure,” is being talked by some. But there has been much talk of that kind for several years, and no general war has broken out yet. It looks as if the powers are un- certain of their relative strengths, are doing a considerable amount of blus- tery blufﬁng.

M. I When GOD was on Earth in the .Sonship Degree in the Body called JESUS, being despised and rejected of men, He Said,—‘Oh Jerusalem, Jerusalem, which killest the prophets and stonest them that are sent un- to thee,’ how oft would Ihave hovered thee as a hen hovers her brood, but ye would not.’ He came in outer ex- pression from the Invisible Realm to save mankind, that they who trust- ed in Him and believed in Him as their Saviour, might not perish but have Eternal Life. V In this New Day and Dispensation lhistory is repeating itself. There are /those who refuse to be hovered under the CHRIST Consciousness Personi- Tied. They place themselves outside the protection of GOD by declaring, —‘It is GOD in ME Who has saved X me,’ denying the reality of the Per- .»sonified Presence of GOD that has ‘really delivered them and millions of others. They place themselves un- der the protection of the limited de- gree of unfoldment of GOD in them, with its mixture of self and mortal- ity, and then when disaster comes ‘there is no help for them, GOD is in a snake also, but who would want to place himself under the protection of that degree of expression? Those who are going on to Per- fection will have the attitude of Da- v_id,—‘I will lift up mine eyes to the Hills from whence cometh my help,’ instead of looking to themselves. , They will shout,——‘Glory to GOD in -the HIGHEST dwelling on Earth among men, better known as FA- DIVINE,’ for nothing but GOD in the highest degree can save them.

While FATHER served the Banquet Table with material food He also poured forth His Words of Spirit and of Life to them in two mighty Mes- sages. The second of these, which was most signiﬁcant, was as fol- lows:——. THANK YOU FATHER. “PEACE EVERYONE! Here we all are again, sp-eaking from One, but many speaking within as though they were many, and yet one in reality. While I was Singing that little Song I Thought of the word that was spo- ken, which is true in a way, I am as operative at My Personal absence as I am in My Personal Presence. If you are absolutely perfect, and per- fectly contented, and nothing can add to your perfection or advancement, then and there I can express through you distinctly, as I can through My Tabernacle. If you are completely self-denied and if you are the un- adulterated GOD, then and there I am as operative at My Personal ab- sence with you, as I am when I am Personally Present. But unless you can and will express the unadulter- ated Spirit of GOD and Mind of GOD unadulterated, and the Life and the Love and everything of GOD unadul- teratedly, it is a matter of impossi- bility for Me as far as you are con- cerned, to be as operative, or oper- ate as effectively in the Spirit of Ae- curateness, as I can and as I do when I am Personally Present. SPIRIT OPERATES THROUGH BODIES These Thoughts are well worth considering. Truly I am OPERA- TIVE, and the Invisible Spirit has al- ways been operative, but it mu-st needs have a BODY and BODIES to «operate through, Unless you bring your body into subjection to RIGHT- E‘OUSNE‘S.S, TRUTH and JUSTICE whole-hearted.ly', and deny yourself completely from every angle, it is _a matter of ifnp6"s's-ibilit-y foI-~y_ou.t‘o_ex- / li~ue;s:.i;:.’,‘+, stay '1i‘tii, of impossibility for you to express "My operativeness, for I can and will» operate and be as operative at ’ your personal presence, but as the broad?» Personal absence as I am cast message comes through the eth- 5 er and is just as operative in a home« where there is no receiving set as ._ it is in the home where there IS 3.: receiving -set, but it cannot operate, "' it cannot express, unless you have something to express it through.

WHOLE-HEARTEDLY CON- SECRATED T0 FUNDAMENTAL These Thoughts are well worth con- sidering. Jot these Thoughts down in your memory and live according to the Fundamental, and lo I will be with you, now, henceforth and for- ever. If you express the Nature, the Characteristics, and the Love of GOD ac"curately and perfectly from every angle expressible, then and there GOD will always be operative, the same as in His Personal Presence. That is why it is required of you,— ‘Let this Mind be in you that was also in CHRIST JESUS.’ One must be converted from that Adamic state of consciousness_ One must live whole-heartedly consecrated to the Fundamental, relax his or her con- scious mentality, and live Evangeli- cally whole-heartedly, which is to say, live exactly according to the Life and the Teaching of JESUS as recorded in the four Gospels. Then and there GOD to you and among you will be operative, and will be expressive, and will be expressed as effectively at His Personal absence as He is when He is Personally Present. HAVE THE MIND OF CHRIST I desire to see all of these things, accomplished and experienced in you. I desire to see all of you reﬂect and manifest Perfection from every angle expressible by letting this Mind be in you that was also in CHRIST JE- SUS, by you expressing it accurate- ‘ ly and perfectly by nature and by characteristics, by deeds and by ac- tions. Then_and there GOD is Op- erative at His Personal absence. Up- on this Foundation if you will stand, Perfection will be your portion an-d you will become to be the outward expressers of «RIGHTEOUSNESS, TRUTH and JUSTICE, the Founda- tion upon which we stand, When this shall have been established in your words, deeds and actions and in your affairs, and in all of your deal- ings, then and there you are- in the actual Kingdom of Heaven. ONE HEAVEN, ONE .. GOVERNMENT , There ‘are not’ Heavens. many, as Page 15 I Said to the Press across the Ocean,, There is one ‘Kingdom of GOD, there is one Heaven for one and all, but manifested in the different places wheresoever the materialization and the visibilizati-on of such an expres- sion can take effect. Then and there the Kingdom of GOD is at hand. I {know mankind observes the different Assemblies. As an outward expres- sion they observe it to be as if though we are representing a whole bunch of Heavens We are not even repre- senting a whole bunch of govern- ments. We are representing one Gov- ernment, the Government of GOD on Earth among men. This Govern- ment as an outstanding ﬁgure and as extended through the very name of it,——The United States of Ameri—, ca,——-is an abstract expression of the Universal Government that shall be universallly established, for they all shall be united together ‘as one man at Jerusalem.’ The seed idea of this G-over-nmenvt is a Government for all Governments,———-e pluribus unu.m,— one composed of many. So shall it be universally when it shall have been rightfully established under the -Constitution of this Country_ All of ‘the Governments of our present Civ- ilization will unify themselves to- gether with this Fundamental Prin- ciple of this Country, and all shall recognize GOD'S Presence as the, Su- per-ruling Power among us. I Thank you.” , THANK YOU FATHER. New Psychology Affects ‘ Table Manners “Let them talk at the table,” is the advice of Mary ‘Katherine Mc- Means, who believes that by proper training in early childhood with the tools of conversation intelligently used, youth will be at a greater ad- vantage in school and socially. With- out such training they talk, but their words are not products of thought. If the family concern themselves with more than idle gossip at times when they are all together, the child will be better equipped. “Show him how to use the conversational tools we all have, encourage him, insist on the improvement -of his thinking speech, an-d remember that the best place, the best work bench in the world, is the dinner table,” the author advises ’M-ay Hygeia. , , ~ ‘ ’ ' fage 165' The “SPOKEN W6’R"l5“‘ Tuesday, May 11 Great S-oviet Venture in Resettlement of Oppressed‘ Peoples to Be Studied by Graphic Arts Official The Soviet Government has agreed to receive for the time being ONE THOUSAND JEWISH FAMILIES AND FIVE HUNDRED SINGLE PERSONS from the great mass "of suffering Jewry in Europe. It is hoped that this will be the beginning of a great movement to help tens of thousands of Jews ﬁnd a real haven and permanent refuge from the hor- rors and oppression in other lands. The only payment required is $200 per family, regardless of size, for food, care and transportation from the border to Biobidjan. Additional ex- penditures outside of Russia for transportation .to the border, cloth- ing, supplies, etc», will bring the to- tal cost -of establishing a family in Birobidjan to approximately $350.’ Thus a family of ﬁve or more -can be rescued from hopeless misery and transferred to a country where they will enjoy. economic security and equality of opportunity. Homes, live-stock, etc., will be -sold to them by the Soviet Govern- ment. on a" 21-year payment plan, without interest, the first payment to fall due six years after arrival in the territory. About two and one-half acres of land will be given to each family for gardening‘ pur- poses free of charge. Opportunities to join collective farms will be open to those who prefer such work. The settler will be given economic oppor- tunities from which he at present is excluded in the countries where he is now under cruel subjection and in abject misery. He will have a. chance to secure the means of sub- sistence for himself and his family under conditions far more favorable than exist elsewhere in Eastern and Central Europe to-day. In addition, Birobidjan extends political, social and cultural rights to the settlers. The genius of the settlers may freely develop its liter- ature, its music and other cultural values. New-comers will share with their ’Russ'i'an brothers all the beneﬁts of this new life. They will acquire citi- zensiiip the moment they arrive in ‘ ‘-Birobidjan. their .chi1d-rien will enjoy amet uc ' ‘ social opportunities as the children of Russians.

Defenders of Civil Liberties’ Differ on Rights of “Sit-‘Do’ ' Strikers i n 2 d I New York, May 12.—Sharp differ- ences among defenders of civil lib- erty as to the issues involved in sit- down strikes prompted the American Civil Liberties Union last week to release to its branches and attorneys a statement deﬁning its position, fol- lowing a vote of the sixty-nine mem- bers of its national committee throughout the United ‘States. The Union’s statement reflects the conﬂict of View between those who “regard sit-downs and sit-in strikes as a simple issue of trespass involv- ing only property right” and those who hold that the tactics “raise debatable qtiestions in a; ﬁeld in which public policy is yet to be de- termined?’ The memorandum cites various forms of sit-down strikes followed- by the unemployed in occupying pub- lic «offices, workers engaging in the tactic only during working hours and strikers occupying plants after work- ing hours, The Union concludes that “how far the law may hold that la- bor relations are subject to public regulation and therefore whether such a tactic might be recognized in any circums’ta.nces is still of course a matter of speculation.” The position of defenders of civil liberties, says the Union, should be “to keep open the process’ of discus- sion and negotiation as agaiinst coer- cion and vio1,en.c-e.” The’ Union de- \ <'_clar'e’si.that it‘: will 2tcti»in\1“e_latioii“’ to’ I Q ' ".‘-$9. keep sirens eih°i- channels of negotiation and or zation, to maintain intact the " to strike and in particular cas protest and take action against necessary force or violence, by w, ever employed.” The Union holds; “ordinarily ways can be found force the law without " price of bloodshed for such tac =_, the peaceful occupation of pl if employment.” ° The Union’s board of directo further taken a position again’ pending legislati-on designed to -T late trade unions or strike tacti the ground that it is ‘‘n‘ hasty and ill-advised.” At — committee is giving the pro" further study: ’ ‘,1.

Nearly 8,000. peers and peeresses, high oﬂicials, and guests from other lands will crowd into the Abbey to watch the coronation. Among them will be Uncle Sam’s oﬂicial dele- gates to the ceremony—James W. Gerard, former Ambassador to Ger- many, Gen. John J. Pershing, and Admiral Hugh Rodman. Four-Fold Ceremony The four-hour ooronation ceremony‘ will be divided into four separate stages These are called the recog- nition, the oath, the anointing and crowning, and the homage. The recognition is a reminder of the time when kings were elected to the throne by the people. King George will be led to a platform at one end of the Abbey by the Arch- bishop of ‘Canterbury. The Arch- bishop will present him to the peo- ple from each of the four sides of the platform. He will ask. four times whether the people are willing to ac- cept George VI as King. Four times the people will shout, “God -save ‘King George the Sixth.” After this, trumpets will sound and the second stage of the ceremony will begin, The King will take an oath that he will govern justly and wisely, according to law, and that he will keep the Church of England . as the official religion of the empire. He will -sign a copy of the written on vellum (calfskin). Thegn comes the “most -solemn part of -the ceremony. King George will oath, be led to the ancient oaken Corona- tion Chair, on which British kings have been crowned for generations. The King Will Be Anointed With Holy Oil He will be anointed with holy oil: by the Archbishop, and dressed in a rich cloth-of—gold tunic. To him will be brought many emblems-—richly, jeweled objects which stand for qual- ities which -the British people wish their kings to have. Gold spurs, emblem of knighthood and honor, will be touched to his heels. Four swords, emblems of jus- tice and of mercy, are used in the ceremony, A great gold orb, em- blem of the spread of Christianity over the earth, will be placed for a moment in his hand. A ruby ring, will circle the King’s finger, to “Wed” him to his people. Then a magniﬁcent gold robe will. be wrapped around his shoulders, and a scepter placed in each hand. One scepter, bearing at its tip the largest, diamond in the world, is an emblem of power. The other, tipped with a dove, is an emblem of mercy. Lifting the heavy gold Crown of England from its pillow, the Arch-__ bishop of Canterbury will set it rev- erently on the King's head, praying, “O God, the Crown of the faithful,‘ bless this Thy servant George our King; and as Thou dost this day set a crown of pure gold upon his head, so enrich his royal heart with Thine abundant grace and crown him with; all princely virtues.” At that minute, gloomy Westmin- ster Abbey will suddenly ﬂash with light Thousands of electric bulbs have been put in place for this part of the program. The light will fall on hundreds of glittering circles, as peers in scarlet and purple robes raise coronets above their heads. The. jewels in the coronets will dance like living ﬂames. From thousands of throats the shout will rise, “God Save the King.” Trumpets Will split the air with sound. In a much shorter ceremony, Queen Elizabeth will be crowned, and the peeresses will don their coronets. The Queen’s crown is a new one, made especially for the occasion, It is of platinum, set entirely with diamonds. Among them is the famous Koh-i- poor. 0 . ._ -..-._.. ...___._..__.._1 Page 18 , The “SPOKEN -worm" 7 I Tuesday. May The Work of the Spirit Can Only Be Accomplished by Bringing Your Through the Spirit of Puriﬁcation Until You Shall Express Perfectioii§ The Scripture Must Be Fulfilled: “Be Ye Perfect Even as Your FATHER Which Is} Heaven Is Perfect”--FATHER FATHER’S LECTURE AT RIGHT- EOUS GOVERNMENT FORUM, KING’S TOWN MANSION, PROM- ISED LAND, TUESDAY, APRIL 27, 1937 A.D.F.D. TIME: 10:30 P.M. For the enjoyment and pleasure of the ‘Kingston Angels and those who had joined them from the ‘various Extensions, FATHER served the eve- ning Banquet and also remained over for the Righteous Government Meet- ing. Drifting away from the purpose for which they were assembled, the An- gels began singing and testifying, but none bore record to speak on Righteous Government, but their tes- timonies were perverted to the reg- ular testimonials they give daily in the meetings. For this cause FA- THER was obliged to remind them of the signiﬁcance of being moved spon- taneously by the -Spirit, and speak- ing volitionally in accord with that for which the Meeting has been called. We «do not especially care to ac-. custom ourselves to conduct our meetings according to the habits and customs of men, in the way of ap- pointing someone as .a Leader or a Master of Ceremonies,—as we would rather see the different individuals move and speak and act voluntarily by their own intuition, without being called on; but if in these different meetings (especially in the Righteous Government Meetings) they do not move accordingly, we will have to conduct them as the other Organiza- tions do, by having a ‘Programmed’ Meeting. This will not have to be if the ‘children will allow FATHER’S Spirit to lead and guide them, and‘ allow His Spirit to take charge in each and every individual, rather than one individual as being called the , ‘Leader.’ Let us take this Message to con- ” sideration and allow FATHER’S Mind and Spiritito control us and all , of our affairs. ,By giving this Mes- sage your prayerful attention, you ‘I will not have an occasion to stumble nor err, for your Wisdom and Un- derstanding will be increased and multiplied, and all will draw from This Ever-Flowing Well of Salvation -—the Body of our Sweet FATH-ER DIVINE. I thank you. Peace Everyone! (‘Peace FATHER Dear,’ spontaneously voiced the An- gels in response.) That little com- position long since composed, but I reiterated it in My Mind whilst sit- ting, t-hinking_ I was listening to the song and listening to the music, and considering the Mystery of the Mis- sion of GOD, considering the Work I am doing among the children of men. How marvelous it will be when that which we did endeavor, it can be accomplished automatically and volitionally, without the form of things. As this evening has been set apart as being termed the RIGHTEOUS GOVERNMENT MEETING, if those of you who are assembled will be so governed by the Spirit of My Mind, it will bring into outer expression and into action, the Righteous Gov- ernment Meetings,——-in words, deeds and actions, the same as if it was ‘programmed.’ But, if these Meet- ings are not brought into expression VOLITIONALLY, which is to say by MY SPIRIT, at times it is required that someone should be appointed as though being inspired to lead, as though they are leading and direct- ing, or whatsoever we are stressing. We have not assembled merely to be sitting and passing the time away, but there is enough in the way of RIGHTEOUSNESS, TRUTH and JUSTICE, in the way of the RIGHT- EOUS GOVERNMENT of which we are stressing, to bring to the light -of the children of this Kingdom, something that will give them more information concerning the RIGHT- EOUS GOVERNMENT. , If you can and if you Will be gov- erned by your highest intuition, and if your intuition is My leading and will Work as perfectlya-nd as accu- .V_( 5, , J ‘n . 1. 77 .“ ‘- . rately as It would through an H" vidual*or individuals who would -- a program for the different mi ing.s, I would enjoy it better it Spirit ca-n work it out as Perf through you, by moving Volitio spontaneously and intuitively, as __‘ as by working according to the -" of things.

When at’ 3. 1 ,~_ -.~ unto the U have been established in ory and you can walk in trher“SPoK‘1‘iiN* «roan» up in the Light of this Understand- ing, where you cannot be torn down. Of course, it is true, you may feel you are saved. That is the way to feel, but whilst’ you feel you are saved, My Mission on earth for you, is to do what I have instructed you to do; in directing your thoughts, your words, your deeds and your ac- tions in the way of Legality and in the way of Politics, and other ex- pressions of our Present Government, of which we have to do with. Those things that concern us, those things that concern others, must be truly‘ converted and must be true, by har- monizing with us and by us har- monizing with them. If you merely consider God is your Redeemer and Saviour, and will not direct your energy and your ambition in the way of Harmonizingiwith Him, it will be a matter of impossibility for Him to save_ you. That is what Conver- sion means! Conversion means you must be changed from one direction toadifferent direction, to that which you have been directed. When you are changed from one direction and are directed in a different «direction, then and there you are CON- VERTED, as far as that is concern- ed. This Great Conversion as an abstract and also as an awakened consciousness, is converting Man- kind in If the way of Righteousness, Truth and Justice, for it is directing them in a different direction to that which they have been going. They have been going in that direction, but when they are truly converted, they will go in —a different direction. They have been thinking in one di- rection, but when they are converted to Righteousness, Truth and Justice, they will think in a different direc- tion. That is the mystery of True Conversion! HARMONIZE UNSELFISHLY _ Then I say, let your thoughts be awakened in the Light of this Un- derstanding, that you might be pa.r- takers of God’s Nature and of God’s Characteristics through Harmoniza- tion. By harmonizing with that which is without and within, by harmoniz- ing with the highest leading within your mind, you will be harmonizing with Me automatically and will even- tually become to ‘be ‘in Unity with your Maker. Through Harmonization, you will _'’be f.brot_1ghf. -into -the _Uinif¢i-2 7'- Page _19 cation of Spirit, of Mind, of Aim and of Purpose, for when you harmonize unselfishly, when the harmonization is actually manifested, it will be the Unification of an expression, instead of merely a harmonized state of ex- pression, That which can harmonize, it can be Unified, for that which is in Harmony will become to be in Unity, firstly in Harmony, then- in - Unity. When you are in Unity in Words, Deeds and Actions, you will take on the Characteristics and the Nature of each other, and you will become to be Unified together. That is the Mystery! BE AN EXPRESSER OF UNIITY Then I say, Unity of Spirit, of Mind and of Aim and of Purpose, should be nothing less than your ‘de- terminated’ endeavor. You should endeavor to be as an Expresser of the Unity of Spirit, of Mind, of Aim and of Purpose, and it should be UNSELFISHLY and TRUTHFULLY expressed. If you take a stand for same, My Spirit and My Mind will inspire you with Understanding be- yond your reason to think, will give you more Joy, will give you more Happiness, will give you more Peace, ’ and will give you more Pleasure, when you are harmonized together ‘as One Man at Jerusalem.’ Through Harmonization you will become to be in the Unity of the Spirit, of Mind, , 'of Aim and of Purpose, and it will be a matter of impossibility for any- one to sever you. The Scripture -then is fulfilled, the Gospel then is fulfill- ed, ‘I pray that they may be One even as we are One!’ You can only become to be One with the other by Harmonization. If a person in mor- tal consciousness loves one or admires another, it is through and by Har- monization. They harmonize and agree with each other, to some ex- tent or to some degree, that the agreement might make the contact and the transmission of the spirit of that individual with whom you are agreeing; therefore you ‘will express a liking or devotion for that "individ- ual. It is not you as a person, but it is the spirit or mind of that per- son in you, loving himself. That is the Mystery! TRANSMISSION or‘ Srmrr AND MIND UNIFY - It is-'Trans:n;'1itti<b1;e;~"it is Reincaji-1, " - being _ Current of God’s Infiniteness, that I Page 20 The «spoken iwoznn" Tuesday, ‘May natable, it is 'Re—prod-ucilble and it is Personifiable, it can and it will Unify all Manxkind together in the Unity of the Spirit, of Mind, of Aim and of Purpose, by bringing your bodies into subjection firstly through Harmonizarti-on! Harmoniz- ing one with the other -and believ- ing you are partakers of the Nature and the Characteristics of each oth- er, because you contact each other Mentally, and the transmission of your spirit and your mind will Uni- fy you together, through sincerely believing each other. That is the Mystery! But if you dislbelieve an- other and disagree with each other, you will learn to dislike each other, as Well as you learned to like each other by agreeing and believing in each other. You dislike a person because you disagree with them. That is the Mystery! HARMONIZATION ESSENTIAL Then I say, Harmonization is the Great Essential! Har-monizing with the Great Fundamental, by concen- tration and by the recognition of God’s Impersonal Presence even -though It may not be observable, harmonize with Him by FAITH in -Him Who liveth forever. Oh it is a privilege to do such a great deed for yourselves and for others, by relaxing your conscious mentality, by stilling yourselves as in.divlrl:v1als. by, letting go in reality and by unify- ing yourselves together, agreeably by harmonization and by‘ believing each other. You See! That is the Mystery! Believing and agreeing and bringing the Whole» Universe in- to closer fe1loWship"With each other. So it is with you concerning Me, you can and will be in close fellow- ship, if you harmonize with Me Mentally, and by believing sincerely, and agreeing Scientifically, you are partakers of each other’s character-. istics and of their nature, through believing and through agreeing. When you continue to agree and to believe with and in each other, and connect yourselves together Mentally, you will be joined in close fellowship as termed ‘Loving one another even as I have loved you.’ But this cannot be accomplished when you detach yeurselves from the Fuademeetal _ as the Magnetic \ have sent out as a wave-length of Salvation to attract you and draw you together, Then I say, SYSTEM is a great thin-g and it is the essential thing to ‘systematize’ yourselves, have things systematically arranged, even though you may not have a Formal affair. If you do not have these meetings and other meetings by Rituals, known by the manner of an Organized Kingd-om, the Spirit of My Presence can lea-d you in that direc- tion and can cause you to express system, and the expression of Har- mony in our meetings as effectively and as accurately as if though it was done Formally. GET SELF OUT OF PICTURE If you let go and let God, God will let you, and your works will not be in vain, for they will work as Har- monious together without Formality, as you would with it, yet you will be far -above it, after the manner of men in the act of calling on you to speak and to act by the custom of Program-s. The time will come as it was years ago, when those of My True followers assembled together, they would move volitionally and would hit the nail on the head, as accurately as if though they were called on by Formal Manner of a Program. Get self completely out of the picture! One running in opposi- tion .to the other! Allow My Spirit to work for you, and I will bring all things together for an unselfish pur- pose, and all will be able to enjoy GOD’S Actual Presence and yet will speak and act as "Scientiﬁcally and as Systematically as if though it was a Formal affair. Now aren’t you glad! (‘So glad FATHER Dear,’ mer- rily responded the Angels in unison.) There is not enough human Intellect nor words of expression to teach mankind, in the Vocabularies of the Earth, to compete with, nor to sur- pass, nor even so much as a percent of a fraction of a grain is in the way of competing with the Light and the Understanding My Spirit and My Mind are so freely giving, ‘ SEEK MORE INFORMATION, WISDOM AND UNDERSTANDING If you live in This Light and bring your bodies into subjection, you will be seeking persistently. more Infor.-Y ma-tion, more Wisdom mere Un- derstanding; and this ‘will come by allowing the Spirit to s-pea n anyone, especially when the *2, uals are inspired by My Spirit to’; them Wisdom and to cause -.>«=} speak volitionally and intuitively; the purpose of giving informati others.

Why will He bear wit- ness Externally and Internally the same? It is because He is the same without and within, if He is the iden- tical One on Whom you are concen- trating. If you concentrate on im- perfection, you must needs produce it in your observation, and you must needs visualize it, for the thing you vividly visualize, you will surely ma- terialize. Then I say, vividly visu-alize the PERFECT PICTURE,——-—even though you do not know Me distinctly, con- centrate on the Highest Light of Spiritual Understanding given you, and lo I will inspire you with Knowl- edge and with Wisdom that will come forth volitionally, that will teach you from the Fount of G-OD’S Omni- science, transcending all human In- telligence. That is--what I am talik- ing about! LET G0 MORTALITY COMPLETELY This can only be accomplished by you letting GOD, and by letting go of your mortal mind; by letting go of your preconceived ideas and opin- ions; by letting go of your egotism and your mortal persistence, that GOD might lead you in't-uitively and might inspire you inspirationally, and teach you Wisdom, Knowledge and Understanding, transcending all human imaginations. Upon This Foundation if you will stand, there will be more and more information you/ will gain daily, as you live Evangelically and bring your bodies into subjection to the Fundamental. There is no end to the Blessings, for the very Spirit of My Presence in- spirationally will inspire you daily with m-ore and more 'B1es.sin,gs, until -you will not have room to receive them. But these things can only be accomplished by letting go, by let- ting GOD, and by moving volition- ally and intuitively, that My Spirit , ‘ might teach you and tell you more and more concerning the Mystery,—- until you let go mortality completely and live in My Ever-Presence. REALITY OF GOD’=S ACTUAL PRESENCE TO ALL FIELDS “Then I say, when we assemble to- gether in these different meeting places, let our mind and our aim. be to bring about the Law of the Spirit of Life to the children of men, and to establish It on the Material Plane, that the very Law that was in Christ Jesus might be brought through LEGA.L1"l‘Y, made Real, and become to be LAW and O-RIDER. Aren’t you glad? (‘Truly we are glad FA'IlI-DER Dear,’ sanc- tioned the hearers.) It can only be- come to be Law and Order in real- ity, by coming through LEGAL- ITY, and by being endorsed P=O'LI- TICAFLILY, that mankind might ob- serve the Reality of it as it is ‘brought through Legality, and EN- DO1RlSiE‘D by Legality. When it is endorsed Legally and Politically, the Legalization of the Law of the Spirit of Life that was in Christ Jesus, will carry the Legal World of expression through the great Conversion and through the process of Purification, for the purpose of Purifying the Legal Field of en- deavor, and P-urifying Politics and other Legal extractions of our City and State, and Country’s Govern- ment, that all might be controlled by the Law of the Spirit of Life," and be converted and cooperate with It. That is why we wish to bring to the World of Legalization, the World of Politics, and the World of So-ciality, the World of ,Educa-‘ tion, and other material or limited exipressions,-the Reality of God’s Actual Presence, that they all might be converted together, and Unify themselves as ‘one man at Jerusa- lem.’ DESIRE NOT TO BE SEEN N OR HEARD This is accomplished by relaxa- tion, by letting go and letting God rule in you_,——by losing your identity completely, and desiring no longer, I I ‘Pa;g’e‘22 ~24 to be -seen nor‘ heard. but that the -Spirit of My Presence with or with- out a Bodily Form, might have full and free access in and over you all. When this is accomplished, then and there your physical bodies will vibrate with the Spirit‘ of God's Actual Presence, and the Spirit or Harmony, Honesty, Competence and Truth will be your portion, until I shall have brought you through the process of P‘urification, until you shall become to be PERF-'ECT,—— ‘even as your FATHER which is in Heaven.’ This is the Work of the ‘Spirit, and the Scripture must be fulfilled;~—‘Be ye PERFECT even as your FATHER which is in Heav- en is PERFECT.’ This is only ac- complished through and by bringing your bodies into subjection through self--denial 'and concentration, by concentration on the Fundamental, and by bringing your bodies through the spirit of Purification, until you shall express PERFECTION as an outward expression of the PER- FECT PICTURE. Deny yourselves,—relax your con- scious mentality as far as your ~pre- ' conceived ideas and opinions are concerned, and concentrate on the Funda.mental sincerely, and lose your identity complet-ely,—and lo I will be with you. When I say, ‘Lo Iwill be with you,’ I am not speaking of matter, I am not speaking of per- sonality,—I am speaking of the IINWERSONALITY of the AL- MIGHTY, though being Personifled and Personi~fia:b1e,- and Re-Produc- ible and Re-Personifiable, yea I am speaking of the Impersonal Pres- ence of My Majesty, with or with- out a Person as a BODY. GOD WILL SPEAK IMPERSONALLY It is a privilege D-ear Ones, to live in the Actual Presence of GOD, where GOD is on active duty, giv- ing active and practical service to and for you,‘ and is at home at all times,—wheresoever I am. Aren’t you glad? (‘So glad FATHER,’ rang out from the listeners.) When all of the selfish tendencies of My S0-CALLED followers and children shall have been dispelled once and forever, then and there 1 can work Scientifically and Harmoniouslyi to- gether with you and cause, you to ‘IIIEIISB -A d'I‘hei*“S~lPOKEN-‘:VVORD" ' be expressers of ME in the fullness, whereby you,——from lacks and limit- ations will be completely free. I need not say more, I believe I have said enough‘ to stir up your pure minds, and yet there is much could be said, and will be said, when I am not speaking PERSONALLY as I am just now; . for those things that I have not said, when they are revealed, then and there you will know distinctly, for it is revealed then, though when I reveal it plainly, you can plainly under- stand it. Oh for a HEART that will not shrink, a HEART that will not doubt; a HEART that will be sub- stantiated over and above every op- position, a HEART that will stand firm when trials may try to come; a HEART and a MIND that will Unify itself with GOD in This ETER- NAL HOME. I thank you, I thank you one, I thank you all. Good Will Toward Men To show how the heavens may be studied ‘through the huge telescope, the dome and instrument of the model move automatically, as ’the original, but motion is speeded to show the entire cycle of movement. The great instrument used in the McDonald Observatory for studying stellar distances, inter-stellar space and the composition of stars, weighs forty-one tons but is so constructed that it may be moved with as little as one-fourth horsepower. It is.said to be -accurate within one-millionth of an inch. A clock keeping “star time” works the motor. The dome, weighing and the double shutters over its roof, sixteen tons each, require re- spectively only three and one—half horsepower, and one-half horsepow- er to move. The instrument rotates automatically to keep up with the‘ rotation of the earth, moving slow- ly up or down at the same time that the entire heavens may be observed. The mirror to be used in the im- telescope is thirteen inches thick at the outer edge and eighty- two inches in diameter. So many years are required to grind and polish such a mirror to give perfect accuracy that this mirror is not yet completed. The observatory has been built for the University of Texas and will be operated by the Yerkes Observatory staff of the University of Chicago.

By T. H. Justice Anybody here getting ready to live? To feed on joy, Grow strong on kindness? Or are you lost in the night. And see only b=la.c.kness? For GOD is the Light, The Comforter And the Power. : Anybody here getting ready to live? » 4 133%? ‘X~RAY GOVERNMENT By T. H. Justice Why are shoes made, corn raised? Why do men ework in factories, on far'ms? Why are grocery stores stocked with food, butcher-shops with meat, dairies with milk? Why? Why? You might think «that food was grown to eat, clothes made to‘ wear, liouses’ built to live in. But between man and all the abundance of life, stands a wall of gold. Two neighbors may live side by side-—one owns a farm and the oth- er owns a cannery. The field of the farmer may be overflowing with ripe sweet corn; the stock 0-f the cannery may be bare and the own- er may be yearning to be able to can the corn which is growing so abundantly on his neighbor's field. BUT IF THE OWNER OF THE CANNING COMPANY HAS NO MONEY, THEN ALL THAT CORN ON THE FARMER’S FIELD MUST ROT! Although these men are neighbors to one another, gold has set up an impassable barrier be- tween them! And so gold divides people from , people, groups from groups, nations from nations. Co-rn rots while peo- ple starve. Machinery rusts while children go without shoes. But once man trusts man, and grows food to eat, makes clothes to wear, builds hous.es to live in, then behold, as by magic, EVERYBODY has all the abundance of life! Eliminate gold and the wells of abundance are opened. Whatever we need comes to us free! All our needs are abundanltly filled. There are no lacks and wants. ‘And we do the work we like and love! For no longer are We coerced and driven by the fear of starvatio;n ——the fear which haunts everybody working for gold. We are free, real- ly free. Free from the fear of to- morrow. Free: from the wild, inhu- man scramble after gold. We are free to do the work we want, know- ing that all our lacks and wants will be satisfied, for all the good things on earth are being passed from hand to hand in free eggchange. This is the goal for which we all work. “ \ ,_ Page 24 RATHER DIVINE KINGDOM IRAQI MISSIONS, EXTENSIONS AND OONNECTIONS UNDER FATHER'S ’1’EBSONAL JURISDICTION NEW YORK CITY, N. Y. REV. M. J.

Point by point the en- tire case collapsed and the charge r’ dismissed with no urging on 3- part of the defendants’ counsel, to Judge declaring firmly that the .ople” had failed entirely to make 1» any case. ’ The chief complaining witness, Arry B.

Over Every Adverse Condition, There ls a Victory Within You Far Superior to Everything That Can Be Against You—FATHER When One Shall Have Lost His Identity Christ Will Appear As the Expresser and Will Bring to You an Identity to Be Represented _:.—:— FATHER’S MESSAGE AT THE BANQUET TABLE,— KING’S TowN MANSION,——PROMISED LAND, SUNDAY, MAY 22‘ND, 1937, A.D.F.D. AFTER MDN’T. Over the budding, blossoming hills and valleys of the Promised Land, the most perfect Spring weather descended d_uring the May 1st week- end. The vegetable kingdom and even the animal kingdom responded, as the Cosmic Forces of Nature work- ed in harmony to produce the most beautiful warm days and starlit nights. There was a reason for this early coming of Summer to the Catskills. The Cosmic Forces were working as they always do, in harmony with FATHER DIVINE. Not only the vegetable and the animal kingdoms responded to Him, but the man king- dom and the GOD Kingdom also res- ponded to His Personal Presence. -Travelling could be seen a long line of cars which constantly increased in num- ber, When the leading car stopped at frequent intervals followed by its train, other traffic in the vicinity stopped also, and many drivers would turn their cars in the opposite direc- tion to get a better view of that leading car. In the streets of the Towns the remark oould be heard on every hand,--‘There goes FATHER DIVINE.’ I - The great prosperity of His ‘Fol- ,’ . - / I . from place to place * lowers through His Blessings be- stowed upon them, and their ever- increasing holdings in some of the best property in Ulster County, have stirred the countryside and incurred the envy of many. Their increased Love and Devotion in the face of every so-called attack, whereby only two have been known to fall away during recent weeks, while thousands have been added through the actions of these two in opposition, have stir- ' red the whole Nation and the world_ at large. Thus FATHER has harnessed minds and attentions until all are concen- , trated on Him, some antagonistical- — others harmoniously, but all shall reap just { ly and conflictingly and what they sow. Sunday evening, May 2nd, follow- ing a visit to the famous Greenkill Park, now known as Divine Greenkill Park, a Divine Community with large Hotel, Bungalows, Cottages, Theatre, Golf Course, Tennis Courts, Private Lake, -River-front, and large acreage with beautiful vistas -of mountain and river scenery, FATHER returned to His Kingston Headquar- ters. Here I-IE served the usual late evening Banquet, in which two Visi- tors from California were privileged to -participate. Following the Ban- quet the following Wonderful Words of Life were given freely by the Lord of the Vineyard for the Salvation of A one and all, after one of His previ- ous Messages had been read from the Page 4 Spoken Word and a familiar Song had -been sung by inspirations-C THANK YOU FATHER! “PEACE EVERYONE! That little Composition, composed as a decla- ration and as an experience at one time, but the reiteration of the same is a' living reality as we reiterate it and sing together,—‘Viotory, Victory, Victory in your soul.’ Over every obstacle, over every a-dverse and un- desirable condition there is a Victory within you far superior to every- thing that can be against you, for ‘Greater is He -Who is within you than all they who can be against you.’ These are reiterated words of con- solation to those who are substan- tiated in Faith and unshaken in Con- fidence, knowing within yourself, as was in the experience of the One, so it is with everyone who will allow the reiteration of that One to be put forth into expression in words, deeds and actions through reiteration. The reiterated “Words of expression in ac- tions and in deeds are a living real- ity when they are once actually es- tablished in your memory, in your system, ,in your character, and char- acteristics. VICTORY IN YOUR soUL "For this cause we can say as I have Said and as I Sang,——‘There is Victory, Victory, Victory in your soul,’ It is a privilege to observe it and sense the feeling of it. When you raise your vibrations high enough to contact the CHRIST Con- sciousness you feel mentally as if though you are victorious because ‘ you are one at times with your Creator mentally from that angle of eiipression, until your minds are free from depression, your minds are free from the worries and the disturb- a‘nce's that may have been created in the consciousness of those who are living in the mortal world of ex- pression. P RECOGNIZE THE LIFTER AS ESSENCE OF SALVATION By this you can see in reality you have the Victory, when you feel that Freedom and Victory over depres- sioifs, where you can feel no longer, depressions as you had been, through tlie _ment"a'l_., and spiritual contact with Hifﬂ lit Whorn you say I This ‘contact will lift you above every un- The “SPOKEN, WORD” desirable condition as aforesaid, but it can not be accomplished saving by your recognition and your .realiza- tion of the LIFTER as the Perfection of Life among you,——the very Es- sence of Salvation, as the Redeemer of humanity. By this you can be lifted above undesirable conditions. You can and will recognize GOD'S Infinite Presence by the mere rec- ognition of it, and by concentration, and by living in the atmosphere of it, IDLE TALK WILL CAUSE NEGATIVE CONDITIONS For this cause we can rejoice and be exceedingly glad to know once and forever, being lifted above depres- sions, trials and tribulations, He that is within is Greater and Better than anything that can arise with- out. That little composition said,-- ‘Some smoke and chew tobacco, ‘Some love their fancy drink. Others have wronged their fellow- man, refusing to confess. By way of an apology, “My weak- ness,” is their cry. It’s all because of idleness, they use it on the sly.’ A little idle, talk at times, fully con- centrating your energy or emotions in the way of confusion by tolerating idle talk and concentrating on the negative instead of the positive, will cause negative conditions to result in your experience. But by the positive thoughts, as you concen- trate in the positive direction, you find the positive result, and all of the desirable positive results coming forth into expression. IioDIEs IN ISUBJECTION TO THE ADJUSTER For this cause we are rejoicing and we.are exceedingly glad to know as we sit and sing, the very Spirit of My Presence has brought to you the desirable ex~pression,——something that satisfies the desires of all of the chil- dren of men as they whole-heartedly accept of Me. It satisfies their de- sires on the mental and spiritual plane it is true, nevertheless for the consideration of those who are liv- ing in a special material concept of things you can see their desires are satisfied on the material plane, for the sustenanceof the body, for the comfort and convenience of the body, and for all things that pertain to the material life in which you live. You saturaay, May 15th, I can see desirable results manifested through the I"e‘cognition of GOD’S ACTUAL PRESENCE, and by bring-3 " .3 ,. ing your bodies into subjection to the Adjuster your body is adjusted in an accurate way of expression, your physical organs will work automati- -cally and harmoniously, and will re- spond according to the Plan and Purpose for which they were created. “REMEMBER NOW THY CREATOR” This is done by the recognition er the Creator, and by bringing your bodies into subjection to the Spirit of His Bidding and the Words of it. Now isn't that Wonderful! You can see the bodies filled with enthusiasm as you sit together, and speak and think of things pertaining to this Life, but thinking of them in an un- selfish way of expression, Harmonious conditions result by such, and you ‘have the outward expression of Vic- tory in your soul. Where there was inharmony, harmonious conditions will come forth into expression, and ;. inharmonious conditions are dispelled, ’by the recognition of GOD’S ACTUAL _'7 PRESENCE. POVVER OF MIND 1/ Just think of what the Power of Mind can do, when it is concentrated " 4‘ in the positive direction with the rec- _ ogniti-on of GOD'S Presence as the , Adjuster of matters. Isn’t that Won- derful! Whatsoever may concern you can and will be adjusted satisfac- torily by the Great Adjuster if you 1 E I allow it, «but if you try to control ‘ the situation yourself as an individ- '‘ ual, instead of helping at times you = may prevent it from being adjust— ed. Isn’t that Wonderful! But still,‘ I «Say it is true,—there is Victory, ‘ Victory within you, by the relaxation of your conscious mentality and by» the stilling of yourself as an indi- », vidual and allowing GOD to Speak V and Act through you. THE PERFECT IDENTITY As I often Say, -when one stills ». himself completely and shall have ’; lost his identity once and forever,‘ -OI-IJRIIST will appear as the Expres- ser, and will bring to you an iden-1? tity to be represented, uWhen you lose your identity you will get _t " presentation or get ‘presented to yo an identity to be represented, tits Will be the pterfesct ex- Vfu where you heretofore in individual identity, even you may have been as per- fin your endeavors as possible, 0.0l&1..€ only express partially the "'~ it and not perfectly in real- ‘. at perfectly from every angle ’:.,er. But you may lose your ‘ ty completely, there will be an " by presented to you, and that i ty will be a, perfect identity V be actually criticized, ' it will bring into expression such -bie blessings that will be so ‘reaching and convincing to the ‘ _ us mentality, it will be a 2 - of impossibility for the cri- actually criticize it. Now ‘"1; you glad! , SHELF BEHIND _, DOOR r :1 men can observe the unfold- " of this Majesty, the unfold- , ~ of this Holiness as represent- " 'r_e, they are obliged to see and P . it is something more than ma at hand. They are obliged -s _ Eilinderstand that there is a Vic- L us Conquering Kinig,—-if not " lit and openly seen they know '; ‘must be within,——conquering , foe; those of your mental and I tual world. As I Said through V Composition there,— . game to -CI-IvRl1S‘T here long ' 9.5.0. -it burdened down with sin. i'_ sought Him long for pardoned .3 Grace, fl ‘He would not take you in. at last you found the reason .

"jﬂeelzeloulo came rush.ing 1.113 " an awful roar. -ma. liye without that shelf, i the I33: v M @1931” LAY DOWN . THE: WORLD . Beelzebub as it may be termed in the parable, could be discerned as the mortal concept of things com- ing up in your consideration, in your m_ind,——‘You cannot do this, that or the other without the expression of a little self.’ Nevertheless, C~I-IlRI:ST’lS Words still remain, they do not chan<ge,—‘Except a man for- sake his OWN LIFE, he cannot be My Disciple . . lay down the world, take up your Cross, and come and follow Me.’ ‘Deny yourself,’ which was at that time required, that self-same‘ denial of self still is requTred. It is indeed Wonderful! When you deny yourself whole- heartedly, your body will be a rep- resentative of something better and something more great than you are as a person. The reaction of such a self-denial will cause you to gain an hundredfold more in this present time, and on the material plane, by self-denial and by consecration, by persecution rather than through Praise and Thanksgiving. TRIALS AND TRIBULATIONS ARE BLESSINGS It is a blessing to be criticized! It is a blessing to be persecuted! It is a blessing to have trials and tribulations as they may be termed, that such might give birth to the limitless blessings that are hid from the children of men, waiting for you. Just think of the limitless bless- ings we are now enjoying, such as your conscious minds could n-ot even imagine just a few years ago. The material, the mental and the spirit- ual unfoldment, the Knowledge and the Understanding coming from the Fount of GO‘D’lS Omniscience,———you can see the Limitlessness of GO>D’\S Infiniteness by His Wisdom and Un- derstanding flowing so freely with- out a thought for consideration. Without a plan or custom, or with- out any ritual, the very Spirit of My Presence is bringing from the Invisible to the surface, the Wis- dom, and the Knowledge, and the Understanding. GOD’S MEsSrSAGE -S-URPASSES OTIIEB LITERATURE As you were listening -to the read- ing a little while ago, if I must" .- -. :.4&IJ¢< .».t. Page ,5 -i say it Ml/Stelf as a Pers.Qh,.—it is as much Impersonal to Me as it should be to you,——such a Message and such a piece of Literature, trans- cends and far surpasses all of the literature you have ever read, does it not? It is so profound, the most intelligent person cannot criticize the reading of the Message. Why? Because it is coming directly,——n.ot indirectly but directly,—~from Him Who has in.spired mankind with such human intelligence, wisdom, knowl- edge and understanding as they are expressing, for it is coming from the Source Itself, it is coming from the Supply Itself, and the Creator of such expressions and such in- formation and such inspirations as are given to the children of men. ' “BY MY SPIRIT, SAYS THE DORD” ‘Then I Say you should rejoice and be exceedingly glad, for over all things, I as being termed Hi-mwith- in you, have Victory in reality. It ' is a matter of impossibility for you to be a failure, for ‘Greater is He Who is within you than all they who could be against you.’ Upon this Foundation if you will stand, you will be able to continue on and on throughout all Eternity. With or without a Bodily Form, as I -Said the other day, that which I have endeavored I will accomplish. When you wear the world as a loose gar- ment it is immaterial to you as to What will become of that which you can see, for that which you have endeavored‘ to do, it shall be ac- complished for you. ‘It is not by power nor by might, but by My Spirit Says The Lord.’ \ CLOSER RE!-LLATIONSHIP BETWEEN MAN AND MAN Harmonizing Words which are spoken, they will perform that wherewith I have sent them, With or without a person or with or without the consideration of any, for the Spirit in Itself with the Words that are spoken is sufficient to bring things into outer ex-pre—s.- . sion and to fulfill all of My Pur- poses. Qh it is a privilege to real- ize What GOD has done for all man- kind, and what He is still doing for you in the act of br-ingingg about closer '~relati.onship. between ‘man and man, that the Kingdom ‘or GDD Page 6 The “SPOKEN worm" Saturday, May 15th, might not be handicapped but that it might expand. As it is brought about in outer expression, the ‘Spirit of Harmony and Unity, and har- monious conditions, result. When it reaches from one to another, the Kingdom of GOD is expanded be- cause it is reaching out and ex- pressing from one expression to an- , other as it expresses from one per- son to another. FORETASTE OF GLORY Therefore you will eventually over- come all of the undesirable condi- tions of life. You will have Victory . over sin, prejudice, envy, malice and .-strife, and the very GOD of Peace will sanctify you holy, will SATIlS— FY you Holy, Heavenly, Eternally, and will also satisfy you "W-H-O-L- ‘L Y’~wholly, in every particle of your body, your spirit, and your mind. Every cell of your being will vibrate to that recognition of GOD’S Presence. I_know there are times, those of you who have had a fore- taste of this Glory have feelings in your physical body as every nerve is just pulsating with the vibrations and the inspiration of the Spirit of Him Who Liveth forever. You feel it permeating and penetrating through your whole physical system, causing your V physical appearances to change in appearance. Your coun- . tenances change. It is indeed Won- der-ful! There is something awaken- ed within you, that you might stand .independent and declare your de- * liverance. g. “WOE UNTO I THAT MAN” Then I Say, ‘There is Victory in ‘ your soul,’—Victory over doubts and fears, Victory over everything that can be said, realizing it must needs be said. As said the Scripture on one occ~asion,——‘It isineedful that of- fences should come, but woe unto » that man through whom they come . it is better that a mill stone be hanged about his neck and he be cast into the depths of the sea, than to offend the least one of these.’ These are facts and figures too stout to be denied. A person is ,- lucky when he gets killed outright. ' at once. That was the belief of the mill stone in those days,-—a twenty- : “ five hundred pound mill stone __or more, would sink a person pretty readily would it not? Now isn’t that Wonderful! Hence it would be bet- ter for a person to be killed in- stantaneously, than to offend Me. Why? Because in .misery such per- sons would go,——in misery of mind, of spirit, of body, and of that which is termed the soul. Hence you are in a. worse predicament by remain- ing in your conscious concept of things, when you are in purgatory while you live, and cannot get out of it. It would have been good for that man had he not been born, for he would not have created a con- scious state of expression that the subconsciousness might be in purga- tory after the body passed from the present existence. “THE WAGES OF SIN .IS DEATH” Think‘ of being in a dream, a very undesirable dream, and finding your- self in the midst of all sorts of tormenting things,—snakes. and scorpions and other things that are negative and antagonistic to your mentality,——findin-g yourself in that condition in your subconsciousness as though you are dreaming or as though you are asleep. Such an ex- pression is the experience of thou- sands of people when they are ap- parently unseen. They see thin-gs coming after them. They have got into purgatory mentally and spirit- ually. ‘The wages of ‘sin is death.’ As said one yesterday, if men interfere with Me, said he, they might know they will die. He did not say they would die physically, but he did say they would die politically. He knows they will die socially, he knows they will die spiritually immediately, as an abstract expression, a sketch and a reflection I have exhibited recent- ly. Now isn’t that Wonderful! With GOD all things are possible, but without" Him there is nothing pos- sible. “I WILL DRAW ALL MEN UNTO ME” Then I ‘Say, think not to say with- ,in yourself that you can just mere- ly put a magnet in the midst of a pin-tray,—a tray of pins,—lbecause the magnetism of the magnet gets on one of the pins and it will pick up another -' pin immediately, for such magnetism will notore , with it when the magnet is tak from it. You can take a. littlem, net and put it in a tray of pins - s-,7‘. it will catch pins, and other pins? that are near the pins that magnet is attached to will also Aibeif" caught up with it, but detach the V. magnet if you please, and they all; will go down together. What littlg. magnetism that was attractedfrom? the original magnet will soon leave” those pins that are not actually? magnetized for the purpose. Aren’t—?: you glad! My Spirit, My Name, and actual-£1 ly the Magnetism,—in other words? as I Say in My fanatical phrase, , My Magneticness, will attract mil-I lions and draw them to Me in full-,2 fillment of the Scripture,—-‘I Will; draw all men unto Me.’ But remem-93; ber, it must not merely be an as-ff sertion, it must not merely be theo-.‘: retical, it must be a living reality? by the Nature and the Characteris-I-V’ tics of Me manifested, that would: be sufficient to attract you andgi draw you to Me. I \ . u HID IN THE INFINITE 3, As I Said the other day,———‘Be1iot7‘ deceived, GOD is not mocked.’ You‘, may find many mockers trying ta‘; be as mocking-birds, trying to mock] somebody. That is why they all are‘? failures when they in selfishness and‘; in individuality as persons, attempt? to mock the Almighty. If you unify. yourself together, unify yourselves‘ together as many and relax your ‘ conscious mentality and lose your'_; identity, and allow GOD to workiu} you by you being hid in the In?’ finite,——then and there GOD can and,‘ will express through you continual- ly and you may be an abstract ex- pression apparently when you shall, have lost your identity,- and that; that expression may be the exact‘. likeness and the image of your:Sav-«ii iour. But you must lose your iden?‘ tity and keep it lost once and for'-; ever in the Infinite. If this is done? you will not try to mock Him, beg’- cause it will not be you. ‘' “ALIVE UNTO GOD” ,. Paul caught a glimpse ofaskeiw, of a reflection of a percent ‘ fraction of a grain of the my? and said,——‘It is no more I, bu. ( A, May 15th, 1937 The “SPOKEN wonm 3;’ ST that dwells within me.’ ;'« see he was trying to lose his “"911-tity by dying daily, as he‘ said -another occasion,—‘I die daily,’ ;i’that he might die. It is as said he {on another occasion, ‘In that you die you_ die unto sin, but in that you live you live unto GOD.’ ‘So ifreckon yourselves to be dead indeed _, unto sin but alive unto GOD through .3’ JESUS CHRIST our LORD . . . and ,’ you are dead and your life is hid ;,,with Cll-IRLST in GOD.’ You see the significance of losing your identity 5. and dying and being hid in the In- finite, that GOD alone might be 7* seen and GOD alone might be heard, ‘ and GOD alone might be known, that you might no longer be seen, ftheard, nor known, for if you are, alone could not Reign,—if you are seen, or heard, or known. That in is the mystery! THE ACTUAL KINGDOM f. or HEAVEN ’ But ‘how marvelous it is when all ‘of the individuals as persons shall fl‘ have come to their destination and '5 GOD Himself in outer expression will come forth and manifest Him- ‘self Supremely by the individuals losing their identity and the Infinite alone being represented. Isn’t that {‘VWonderfu1! Then and there, as you sit and stand in this Dining Room .yvith the Abundance of the Fullness gall at your diposal, so will it be uni- versally, for the Earth will be The ‘.£_Lord’s and the manifestation of the ‘fullness of it. ‘Aren't you glad!

AND QUEEN King George VI and his Queen, Mary, the first Scottish Queen of England in more than 100 years, were us-hered to their thrones in the lavish Coronation ceremony in London on Wiednesday last. MORE ABOUT GARDENING WITHOUT SOIL ‘So many people are beoming im- pressed with the idea of raising fruits and vegetables with water and chemicals, without soil, that popular advice is being given in various quarters. The breezy Cali- fornia weekly, “Epic News,” identi- fied with Upton Sinclair and the Utopian Society, has this practical advice for readers who wish to learn how the new kind of gardening works. Three methods of applying the principles of “water culture” are be- ing used exeprimentally. The plants are supported in pure sand on shal- low well-drained benches, which are periodically drenched by the nutrient chemical solution, as from a hose or bucket. In a second method, tanks filled with gravel or cinders, with the plants set therein, are flooded or sub-irrigated with the solution by an automatically operated pump. Greatest progress, however, appears to be attending the method of sus- pending the plants in exce1sior-bed- ded screen trays over shallow tanks of chemical solution, which method in conjunction with electrically con- trolled bottom heat has come to be known as electrochemicu-l~t,ure_. In addition to producing a super- ior food product, reducing the time and the labor per unit produced and the area required it has been found that by this method there is effec- tive control of pests from so-il and air sources, valuable air-nitration of the roots and better control of the beneficial chemical composition of the produce. Probably the beneficial vitamin content will be found to have been increased when the anal- yses are made. Needed Chemicals Are &Easy to Get The chemical needs of various plants have been carefully ascertain- ed by experiment and by organic analysis of the product of the plant, that is the fruit -or vegetable it- self. The chemicals are fortunate- ly, mostly by-products of industry, abundant and comparatively inex- pensive. Calcium, potassium, magne- sium, phosphate and iron are the necessary elements for plant growth with others o-n the beneficial list. The proper form of the various chemicals, the proportions, etc., has been more or less of a secret until recently despite the fact that they. have been discovered in public insti- tutions of learning. ‘There is -of course much interest- ing . experimenting yet to _be done. Page 8 The “SPOKEN VVORD” FATHER DIVINE’S Righteous Government Movement the V Greatest Force for Good Ever Felt in the U. S. By, Attorney Hugh MacBeth (From a report presented to the Research Department of the Right- eous Government Forum at .2602 South Central Avenue, Los Angeles, Calif.) I have come back fro-m what has been the most wonderful trip and experience of my life, and during that trip it was mine to contact the character—the person—~the spirit, which in my lawyer vision I have said and I repeat~is the nearest thing to GOD ALMIGHTY that is on earth today. I doirt think that there is one in a hundred here that really under- stands the technique, the deep’ science and absolute thoroughness and de- vastating, power-cutting capacity of What is known as the FATHER DI- VINE Movement. You know these "fellows that are on the lower enh of New York have met their match, and in a desperate effort they are trying to do everything they can to stop the FATHER DIVINE Move- ment, but what they are actually doing, my friends, instead of stop- ping the movement, they are spread- ing it, in this method of propaganda. FATHER DIVINE is the mos-t in- teresting character from the various angles that I have ever met, and I wish I was there with HIM. I re- member at the banquet table one night, a brother got up and was giving one of those talks, and I heard FATHER say, “Don’t say it unless you mean it.” HE has that quiet smile—you can’t fool HIM. HE knows the difference between the -genuine and the fake. I thought it was just wonderful. That is the message I want to present to you. “Don’t say it unless you mean it.” _ Much Work to Be Done We have a tremendous amount of work for the true followers to do here and now. We have got before us here in this western country, Los Angeles, San Francisco and Seattle, a tremendous program which will stretch from‘ the tip of the Rockies - down to the lap of the Pacific and from Alaska on the north to Mexico on the south,‘ and that program ca-lls everybody. The greatest educational program that has ever been put on which will ‘engage hundreds of the best minds and» spirits of the teach- ing world and the activities of thou- sands and thousands of the chil- dren. I have been to New York and have seen the wonderful educational work going on there. It is simply wonderful. You don’t understand FATHER DIVINE unless you understand the highest of science. I have watched in the Promised Land and he does not have anything second grade; everything is the finest and best. As I said before, the chickens even start to work by an electric thermo- static control. Everything in the Promised Land ‘is of the very best and they use the most sanitary" me=tho‘ds. I said to FATHER, “I see what you are doing. Those fel- lows in those banking institutions who are crushing out the lives and bodies and spirits of people, you take those crushed bodies and those crushed minds and spirits, and re- build them, and you put them on an Evangelical cooperative basis.” “I see you have something there that will whip all of the treasurers of the world, and they see that thing, too.” .S:piritual Cohesion of Followers Now they are banking everything on this——-that they will be able to break up the spiritual cohesion of the followers of FATHER DIVINE but they never will be able to do that. Stop and analyze that for a moment—a program which includes the least human, regardless of ex- pression, regardless of degree, re- gardless of wealth. How are you going to beat that? That is truth itself. Here is a program that abolishes charity——a system where you must work and create—-a sys- tem that does not encourage lazi- ness—a system that discourages slovenliness and says that you must clean up your body and keep your- self sweet and clean. Here is apro- gram that reaches into the high- est science. HE isn’t satisfied with last year’s models-—HE is reaching out to next year’s. I talked with HIM on new scientific methods of agricultural production and I wish you had seen the lively interest in HIS eyes. HE is expecting HIS children here in the west to estab- lish the highest and the best. You are not serving FATHER DIVINE by being satisfied with anything less than the best, and HE is call- ing for the highest and best at all times. ‘ HE is calling in you for an ever highei‘ expression and His ‘a program is such that no matter how Saturda';y, May 15th, 19? low you are HE never turns against you. gr FATHER Always Positive . FATHER always expresses the 3‘ positive-never a word of criticism" against anybody—not evenaword of criticism for those who were crush- ~I ing those bodies but always a word f of hope that they would see the er- _ their ways and that they ' ror of would join with HIM in the rebuild- a ing. HE said, “It isn’t all thatfol- low my teachings or the principles that I lay down, but those who do 1‘ follow them will have eternal life.” . I said, “I can see that as a lawyer, ~;' the more people study themselves and get rid of their superstitions’ , and give themselves over to the ,3 one program, the brighter =they get, and as we just give ourselves over 5 I know - I said to "‘ a friend recently, “There were titties , when I had cases when they wore _.~ but now I sleep ,‘ mighty well nights and nothing wor- ‘ The reason is this——-I have ’ actually come to see that you can't 3. completely, we live longer. that from my own life.” on me terribly, ries me. run this thing yourself——-that when , you try as an individual to take on . your shoulders the program of sav- A" ing the world, so to speak, you just . wear yourself down and get thin and pass out, but you get to the « point where you do all you can along the lines of Righteousness, Justice , and Truth,_ then pass over the rest: to FATIHEIR. I have reached the ,4" point where I do not worry about 2 anything. I am going to see that: my client tells the truth, the Whole truth and nothing but the truth. I" am going to do everything that 1% possibly can to the extent the pow- ers reveal to me, to try that the‘; other fellows do the same thing, , and after that the judgment is with _ powers beyond. “We Must Get Down to a New Principle of Life” Finally, my friends, I want to say 3. this——I do trust that if there is any 1 service I can render any of you at ‘ any time to the extent of my ab'ili- I And I wish ’ ‘that every one of you would have ; We have got a i ty, I am here to serve. that same attitude. lot of work to do and there is no 1 hope along the other line. ation is -this-——we must really ,‘ down. to a new principle of life. .Y() can try all the new schemes, ‘ tricfks but it is ‘ of no‘ avail you disarm the heart. You I have ” been to Washington and around and they are doing nothing but get’tingA_" up and making speeches and think._'1 they are fooling someone.

We can have all the idea.s, .%the best programs in government ‘and business and what not, but they ;’don’t amount to anything unless you disarm the heart and make the iheart truly Evangelical, and that is j.‘ why I claim, -as alawyer, that there . . is nothing they can do to stop the ,-’FA'1‘HER DIVINE movement, be- .’[cause every criticism they bring 3 against it helps it—helps it in find- lng the weak spots and getting rid L of the hypocrites and getting rid of those who put selfish ambition ahead of the service of the general .' good. I am just talking as a law- _ f yer who is trying to find the truth. i Iam not bargaining for a ticket to etema-l peace——I am trying to do the right thing and find righteousness, _ justice and truth because it is right ,_ and because it is truth and it is 1 justice. I am just trying to find lthe true path because it is that. If Eyou think you are. fooling anyone "When you say that you are a fol- '7 lower of FATHER DIVINE you are 7 fooling no one but yourself. When *7: -you say you are faithful you had better be faithful.

You will find that one of these days you {r will be needing your own under- «:5 takers.” I The FATHER DIVINE Righteous ;-.,'Ciovernm.ent Movement is the most terrific thing that has ever been ‘§,turned loose in the history of the Government. To Check and Re-check the Politicians When the new Righteous Govern- ‘ ment program is turne-d loose in ‘this city——in this state and in this sec*tion-—before it is in full move, ',’you are going to have one member ._of this forum attached to everybody 0; from the Governor down to the dog- ;.cat_cher, with another brother to uyfwatch both of them, and reports will We made quarterly in writing, and _, credits or discredits, as the case f,..: be, passed on to FATHER. years of "checking and re-check- ‘lv of brothers and sisters in pub- office will tie things up in such ot as _will make it an impos- I , for 51 per cent ef the pee- ‘ be on the side 0:5 ezjoeks, as are today. "Ever_y_ American The -‘sronnn worm" city is dedicated to ‘selfish interests! today and if you do not believe it, try and run for office on an hon- est platform, and see how many votes you get. People want youas candidate for what you are going to do for them. Unless you let him to handle liquor, play slot machines, etc. he will not vote for you. FA- THER DIVINE is striking that thing at its very roots. They in- sist that everyone who runs for public and holds public office from stenographers to councilmen, that they shall repeatedly appear before these Righteous Government forums and justify by their deeds and ac- tions. That is what some of the so-call- ed masters of" America think they can kill by newspaper propaganda and by radio innuendo. They can- not do it and every true follower and believer will do just as some of these——‘they will go to jail, if neces- sary. FATHER DIVINE isn’t com- promising and don’t you think HE is running away from anyone--just going about ‘HIS business without any concern. Speaking as a lawyer, this whole thing is nothing but a. series of legal frame-ups, of which there isn’t the slightest bit of truth so far as FA- THER DIVINE is concerned. I thank YOU FATHER for this op- portunity. _Synthetic Food Nazi Hitler and General Goering are forcing the German people to eat synthetic food and wear textile sub- stitutes_ There are approximately 7,000 chemical ﬁrms that have turned their effort toward supplying the German people with bread made from cotton seeds, sugar made from raw wood, and fats from the hydrogenation of synthetic petrol.

My dear Mr. Mudd: I write as I wish to advise receipt A of your letter of the 6th acknowledg- ing refund of $5.00 for relief receiv- ed from Mr. Tree of Life. It is such Acts of Honesty by MY followers that tell the Story of ~Righteousness, Justice and Truth entering into Civic, National and -Government affairs of the world. \ By these Planks of My Righteous Government P_latform,_ I AM en- / . deavoring to strike from the hands of those dealing unfairly in official control, the reins of unrighteousness and of injustice. I AM endeavoring by this Principle and Fundamental to put into the hands of those who will deal with Equity, the Reins of Righteousness, Justice and Truth, that when the Lead is made to the Right or to the Left, the people will be led into Avenues of Success and Prosperity and no longer into blind alleys to fall into depressions, hard- ships, etc. For this Cause, millions of MY followers are standing whole-heart- edly and in full cooperation with ME to execute Righteousness, Just- ice and Truth in"the Legal Courts of Law, an-d in‘ the public services and affairs of City, S te and Country. They are endeav ,ing to live Independently and unobligated to anyone, arid thousands who have been on Home Relief are today Abundantly Blessed and ’Free from all Charities. They are no longer dependent Citizens, slothful, incom- peten't and dishonest, but they are enthusiasts in this Light and Rec- ognition of the Presence of God in their midst, becoming to be Law- abiding Citizens, and more—they are becoming to be Law-making Citi- zens, Competent, Trustworthy and Independent. Desiring you and all who may be concerned to be recognizers of the Truth in Righteousness and in Justice, this leaves ME Well, Healthy, Joyful, Peaceful, Lively, Loving, Successful, Prosperous and Happy in Spirit, Body and Mind and in every organ, muscle, sinew, joint, limb, vein and bone and even in, every atom, fibre and cell of MY.

Dear Sir:—— Again I am sending YOU a re- ceipt for money paid me by one who has made a study of YOUR divine teaching, the psychology of which upon her mind, has caused her to make a marvelous demonstration. The bill was contracted by Mrs. Sarah Lovewell in 1917, and due the late Dr. Walter W. Hopson for medical attention rendered to her. This bill, she states, was 'to her be- lief $5.00. Dr. Hopson’s charges were $17.00. He, for adjustment, made the bi-ll $5.00. Since becoming a student of truth, she says, she knew that the bill was $17.00. Of this amount she previously paid $5.00, and on March 18th, she came: to see me, bringing $11.00, which she says was rightfully due Dr. Hopson. Even ‘though Dr. Hopson could not receive. this money, she gladly paid the amount; thereby leaving her a peaceful mind within. Respectfully, Mrs. M.

Fear Drastic Reprisal by Britain After Destroyer Is Blown Up inMediterranean Valencia, May 14.—An tional incident” which may plunge Great Britain into a program Olf drastic reprisals was feared today as inspectors examined the hull of the British destroyer, Hunter, on which nine were killed and 24 injured -after the ship either struck a mine or was torpedoed. The blast occurred about four miles off the coast of Southern Spain. If inspection of the gaping hole in the Hunter’s steel plates, just below the waterline, reveals -the damage was caused by an Insurgent mine, re- taliatory action by Britain is certain, it was admitted, They indricated that a second hole was f0l11‘11d in the ship’s plates, just opposite the gaping hole where the mysterious explosion -originated. This would suggest, it was said, that a tor- pedo was ﬁred at the destroyer. The Hunter, -engaged in the Inter- national Non-Intervention Committee patrol of ‘ the Spanish coast, was about, four ‘miles off Almeria, the “interna- Spani§sh_ Government port midway be- tween .Valencia and Malaga. . e «L, .1I|||j|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||u"H|'"'""I““'“""l"“l|"Ill!IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIAIIIIIIIIIIIII IIIIIIIIIIIIIIHIlllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllIIIllIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIlllllllllIllllllllllllllllllillll " World Needs Freer F low oft?-jf.

TIME: 2:05 A.'i'v’I. The apparent over-night arrival of spring, with its azure skies and the ﬁrst pale green leaves of the season and here and there a beautiful tree in bloom, heralded FATHER’S Re- appearance in the Personal Body, in the Promised Land the Week-end of April 30th. The next night at the Banquet Table of the Stone -Ridge Extension were gathered angels from all of the Promised Land Extensions, and some who had motored up from New York City in the hope of seeing their SA- VIOUR. The dining room was ﬁlled to ca- pacity when FATHER took His Place at the Head of the long table, and testimonies followed -one another in rapid succession, as many of the an- gels told of recent experiences. One related that she had found, on ques- tioning a great many people concern- ing FATHER and His Work, that the very large majority of them were ap- preciative and had nothing but praise to offer, and that the only real oppo- sition was in the false reports of the press. She also stated that in speak- ing to a member of the State Wel- fare Board she had asked the ques- tion, “What would the Home Relief do if the many followers of FATHER DIVINE were turned to it?” This created a thought for serious consid- eration, for it is a well known and acknowledged fact that FATHER has taken thousands off the Welfares and made them self-respecting, self-sup- porting, law-abiding and law-making citizens. This in itself is enough to show that this great Movement ‘is commendable, and the greater part of the world has already realized this“. " ‘A speaker from one of the Prom- i-sed*L‘élr‘id Extensions told the exteri- , ence - of: one -who had been sub- 41., poenaed for questioning in an inves- tigation of the FATHER DIVINE PEA-CE MISSION MOVEMENT, which has been brought about by the false and deliberately malicious state- ments of a former ‘follower, who found the Teachings of the great LOVE MASTER, FATHER DIVINE, too strict to suit her own selﬁsh pur- poses, and deviated from His Com- mandments, This has caused some inconvenience and embarrassment to a few of the true and faithful fol- lowers who, although there is no charge against them, have been sub- poenaed and subjected to ridicule, bullying and even threats by ofﬁcials who are attempting to force them to make untrue statements. Looking into the matter from a Personal point of view, FATHER made the District Attorney of Ulster County the -offer to co-operate in the investigation by Personally taking him, or his representatives, through the many Extensions of the PEACE MISSION, but to date advantage has not been taken of His Condescension. Speaking on this and other points, the REDEEMER of mankind deliv- ered the Powerful Message herewith recorded. THANK YOU FATHER. PEACE EVERYBODY: (‘Peace, FA- THER!’ came from the large gath- ering.)

The “SPOKEN. worm" subpoena, without he or anyone in connection with the office notifying Me anything about what was going on, but as I heard it through those of whom had been subpoenaed, I came to help the District Attorney’s Office out, and the Sheriff's Office out, to take them through the dif- ferent places, as I am the Spiritual Adviser of all of My true Followers, to take them through for the purpose of spiritually serving My Followers that they might not take the law in their own hands. There-fore, I, through My Condescension and Com- passion for the children -of men, came and presented Myself and My Staff, zl. part of them, to take them through the -different places as an assistance in the investigation; but he ignored it! COOPERATE WITH LAWS, RULES AND REGULATIONS Now, if he does not choose to ac- cept of My Voluntary Assistance, why then he must get it legally, and if there is a Slip in anything, they will know whether they have dealt justly or ‘not. Everyone will know whether they have dealt justly or not! I mention this because it is true at times you may feel as if though you wish to, take the law in your I do not encourage any of you to do it! CO--OPE'RATE with the laws, rules and ‘regulations, and. help them if they let you help them, 'but of course if they will not, why that is up to them, See, that is the idea! The time that has been will not be again, and again I wish to say in reference to those who have been try- ing to intimidate the Followers out here in the act of burning crosses and such as that, I want them to know if they are allegedly klans, or if they are merely claiming to be klans, ‘forging the name and the ac- tions of the klans to appear as if though they are the klans in our consideration and in others, it, makes no difference to Me,——we cah meet the klans and any other organiza- tion! LAWS «SHALL BE ENFORCED If the law will not act, I will en—. act a. law among ourselves, and I will have law enforcement agents under the Jurisdiction of the Peace Page 15 Mission ! ing about! That is what I am talk- WE SHALL HAVE A RIGHT- EOUS GOVERNMENT UNIVER- _SAL'LY, AND WE SHALL HAVE IT IF WE HAVE TO PEACEFUL- LY AND HARMONIOUSLY USURP AUTHORITY TO HAVE IT, WITH- OUT VIOLATION OF THE RULES ’ AND REGULATIONS, BUT WHERESOEVER LAWS, RULES AND REGULATIONS ARE NOT ENFORCED AC-CO-RDING TO THE CONSTITUTION, WE WILL EN- FORCE THEM! When and wheresoever they get slack in their duty, and fail to do their duty, Why we will step up -and do it, for we have thousands and thousands of men, as they may term them, merely waiting for My Bid- ding to come and be on the beat wheresoever I may have a consider- ation to ﬁrstly mentally and spirit- ually protect the interests of those who are standing for RIGHTEOUS- NESS, TRUTH and JUSTICE. That is what we are going to do! SHALL STAND FOR RIGHTEOUSNESS, TRUTH AND JUSTICE ' When I say; “WE SHALL HAVE A RIGHTEOUS GOVERNMENT,” this does not merely mean sitting on the stool of do-nothing, as some may have believed, but it means to en- act RIGHTEOUSNESS, TRUTH and JUSTICE, and STAND for it; and if we could die, a thousand a day, we would have still as many more to take their places! Oh, it is a privilege to realize this Government, of which we are now re.presenting,—the Government of the Kingdom of Heaven brought in- to materialization and ﬁrstly mani- fested in these, My -Children,-it means a Constitution handed down from Heaven by My Spirit and by My Mind. It means that the Law of this Constitution must ‘be enacted, and must be -actually established le- gally 0-r illegally. Under the Consti- tution of the United States of Amer- ica, we are self-respecting, self-sup- porting and law-respecting and law- abiding citizens, and we demand the RIGHTS or our Activities without being molested, or without being in- terfered with, and we shall have it! SPIRIT WILL DEFEND -THIS PEOPLE The time has truly come, GOD has Page 16 actually Gloriﬁed His Son and His Son is in Bodily Form! “My Spirit shall not always strive with man,” I declared before the ﬂood came. The same Spirit is speaking today in this My Name, of Whom you say I AM! (‘GOD ALMIGHTY!’ was the great shout.) My Spirit will not al- ways compromise with sin; My Spirit will demand the RIGHTS of the peo- ple, mentally, physically and spirit- ‘ ually! My Spirit will demand it, and we shall have it, and My Spirit will DEFEND this People, with or with- out any BODY! IF IT MUST NEEDS GO INTO THE INVISIBLE -AND BE. SILENT AS FAR AS SPEAKING AND PERSONALLY ACTING ARE CON-CERNED, MY SPIRIT WILL ACCOMPLISH MY ENDEAVORS AND WILL DO THAT FOR WHICH I CAME! WE SHALL HAVE A RIGHT- EOUS GOVERNMENT, AND .1‘ MEAN IT—-and NOTHING SHALL HINDER ME! If things get in the way, they shall be moved out, for My Spirit shall do it, and I am glad My Spirit is not conﬁned to the in- visible realm alone, but My Spirit is in the hearts and lives of the chil- dren of men, and RIGHTEOUSNESS, TRUTH and JUSTICE shall work it out scientiﬁcally and accurately, le- gally or illegally. It is indeed Won- derful! SIGNIFICANCE OF ALLNE-SS OF GOD I know in the Sonship Degree it is true, JESUS suffered many things, —-was cruciﬁed, dead and buried, as said the Scripture. They said that the Son was coming: ‘Here comes the Heir; we will kill Him and the in- .heritance shall be ours.’ That is what they have been trying to do, but they cannot kill the Heir any more! Oh, it is a privilege to real- ize GOD has come in the hearts and lives of millions, and if He ceases to function in one, He will function in another,» just as effectively, That is the signiﬁcance of the ALLNESS of GOD and the nothingness of mat- ter,——-the nothingness of yourself as an individual, when the Spirit moves within you with the Spirit of ‘Sincer- ity to do that which is Just and Right and Good, in either Way Ofde-, , ;_f_ens.e or prote.ction or of co_nstruc- V The “SPOKEN worm" INDEPENDENCE OF GOD The Spirit -of My Presence is working; nevertheless you must ob-. serve the nothingness of your body as a person and the ALLNESS of the Spirit as My Impersonal Pres- ence within you. Discerning the ALLNESS of GOD and the nothing- ness of matter, GOD will work ef- fectively through you, and if He cease to work through you as an in- dividual——since the nothingness of matter is the consideration, the ALL- NESS of GOD is a reality; therefore it will be universally established and transmitted to -others and accom- plish My Purpose. That is the mys- tery, and that is the signiﬁcance of My Mission and My Activities. That which I have endeavored I shall ac- ‘ complish. As I said the other day, I shall ac- complish that for which I came, With or without a Bodily Form, When one body ceases to function con- structively and accurately, the trans- mission of the -Spirit of Constructive- ness and Accurateness shall be rein- carnated, and My Spirit in the rein- carnator, in the reincarnated one, will be the expression and the out- ward out-picturing of the reality of that which is constructive and ac- curate. That is the signiﬁcance of the INDEPENDENCE of ‘GOD! SPIRIT OF INDEPENDENCE BROUGHT TO FRUITION When the United States -of Amer- ica declared her Independence, it was an outward expression of a de- claration, but the reality of the in- ner expression would be manifested in the individuals as they bring themselves into subjection and de- velop the Spirit of Independence. I have brought to fruition the Spirit of Independence in many, that you might be emancipated from your spir- it of dependency. Aren’t you glad? (‘So -glad, FATHER!’ assured the many,hearers.) By this you will be able to stand above every opposition and recognize the EVER-PRESENCE of GOD'S INFINITJENESS and of His O‘MNIPOTENCE, working and inactive, but ever present, ready for expression when it is necessary for Him to -put these expressions into action. LEARN WHOM T9 QQEY Then I say, the. ALLNESS er GOD /, Saturday, May and the nothingness of Living Reality!

It may work that way from ‘Cosmic’ point of view, but then we same Work of GOD may be ex- ssed otherwise You cannot al- ys. tell how the Work of GOD may patently be expressed in carrying His Plan and His Purpose, for "is written in the Scripture: I “The wicked shall slay the wick- , . " ed!” Gems AND Wickedness somewhere will meet "'lt(§dness of its own kind, but still, you please, remember the goat and lamb. Both of these were cross- }; the board walk. They met each [er on the way; the goat was go- 7; in the goat direction, and the w b was going in the lamb direc- in in ; but the -goat reared up to butt lamb off of the walk. But what ~ the story? '. . , the lamb stooped _wnv and let the goat go over him 1'» they went. But there came gagoat going in the lamb direc- Do you see Me? (‘Yes, I 'I::-n voiced the listeners in uni- ‘ ) ., . f to meet such things as he tlrerefore he was going in the Erection; but he was going for so of meeting all «goats that rig to destroy the lamb. So "mystery! The» “sP0’KEN WORD" he met the goat and the two reared up and the story goes, they butted each other and they both fell over- board and were drowned, and so there were no more goats on the board walk to interfere with the lamb! KEEP SELF OUT OF EVERYTHING Oh it is a privilege to observe the “The wicked shall slay the wicked,” and the evil spirit from the LORD entered into someone didn't it? It is Wonderful! It was for a pur- pose,—to meet that same kind of its own kind, so it entered into «Da- vid and he slew Goliath. By slaying Goliath he ascended the throne, be- cause he did not do it for a selﬁsh purpose He was not doing anything to justify himself, but he was ﬁghting for Israel's sake. It is indeed Won- derful! He was trying to defend the throne, you see, and trying t-o ‘de- fend the throne, why he ascended the throne in the minds of those who were on the throne. Do you see the mystery! (‘It is Wonderful!’ ex- claimed the throng.) He ascended the throne in the minds of those of whom were on the throne; therefore he was not condemned for what he did, for he did not do it for a selﬁsh purpose,-he did it for Righteous- ness’ Sake . . , and got by at it too, because‘ he did not do it for a self- ish purpose; but as soon as he did something for -selﬁshness, why you see he was dethroned from the throne where he had been enthroned in the mind of tho'se.who were on the throne. Now isn’t that Wonderful! . _ but as long as you keep SELF out of everything, and live an Evan- gelical Life, you will be all right. Oh, it is indeed Wonderful! STAND UPON HEARTS AND MINDS Well, it is true! . . _ as soon as self gets into anything,—-doing some- thing for self for a big name, to be self-exalted, to have praise of men, instead of praise and honor for GOD, then and there you will lose all! But if you stand -up, stand up for . (FATHER? came‘ the mighty shout) , . . ‘ye soldiers of the Cross.’ That does not mean to say you should do anything of yourself, but stand up in your hearts and in ydur minds, and let My ~S:pir'it ﬁght the‘ battle. You will not have an oc- E; _ Page 17 “E7 casion to fret nor worry, for your minds, your hearts, will not be con- demned if you stand up for Him Who liveth forever, and will deny yourself completely henceforth, now and for- ever. Aren’t you glad? (‘So glad, LORD!’ echoed the true and faith.- ful.) GOD HAS LIFTED HIS SON So the time has truly come, GOD has actually Gloriﬁed His Son in the Gloriﬁed state of expression. It is no longer going through sorrows, pity and what the people would call ‘seeking mercy,’ but seeking RIGHT- EOUSNESS, TRUTH and JUSTICE, for GOD has Gloriﬁed His Son and lifted His Son from that state of expression where He will no longer" have to go through those conditions. Aren’t you glad! Again the Spirit has been declaring from time to time: “GOD alone shall reign!” ‘See that no man takes your crown, by al- lowing that testimony in you, and that statement combined, to be de- throned. If you allow that thought to be dethroned in your mind, then and there someone will take your crown, If you desire to have any- thing else to reign, saving =GOD, of Whom you say I Am . . . (‘GOD AL- MIGHTY!’ proclaimed many voices'.), . , . then and there you will be im- mediately dethroned. It is indeed Wonderful! I need not do a thing PERSQN- ALLY especially, but the very Spirit of My EVER-PRESENCE will de- throne everything that tries to as-. cend the Throne for a selﬁsh pur- pose. That is the mystery! My SPIRIT will dethrone it! My PRES- ENCE will dethr-one it! Now just look at the happy faces sitting and standing in this dining room this evening. Just a week or so, a cou- ple‘ of weeks -or so ago, there were some of whom thought you all would be clinging to them in opposition to Me . _ . because you had been led er- roneously by them, causing you to think that they were Me and I was them! -Oh, it is a privilege to ob- serve thernystery as GOD reveals it and dethrones the self-exalted peo- ple. REFUSE TO BE IDENTIFIED . , Q t NEED NOT sin‘ A worth: I» have not «done a ’thing as far as the Pa.ge_18 actual Physical or Personal doing is concerned, but yet you can see as it has long since been said, the ‘other fellow’s kingdom is coming down: As I have long sinxce declared: “Be not deceived; GOD is not mocked!” We ﬁnd those rise up among you of ‘whom will try to mock GOD, try to do like GOD «does, and try to do everything GOD does, and try to do it themselves. Now if you are one with your GOD, you can let G-OD express through you accurately and equivalently the same as He ex- presses through Himself in the Name of Whom He stands»—-as GOD! GOD could express through you just the same, actually the same, if you are dead and dead indeed and have lost your identity completely to rise no more. When your identity is repre- sented, then and there, if you are ex- pressing ‘from any angle expressible in the likeness of GOD, you are try- ing to rob GOD, by identifying your- self as the representative of some es- pecial expression, even an action, you are trying to rob GOD of His Glory and of His Honor, but if you shall have lost your identity completely, and will not recover it nor receive it if it is represented, then and there GOD can continue to express through you in His Exact Likeness and Image and will be a Blessing continually, for. His Blessings will be extended fnom one place to another through and by you as an individual; but you-» must stay hid and no longer be seen, no longer be heard, neither felt by any person or persons of your person- ality or individuality. GOD ONLY CAN DO AS HE DOES “BE NOT DECEIVED _ . . GOD IS NOT MOCKED!” Another person cannot do as GOD does! GOD is the only One can do as He does, and the only One can do His Will, for “they that are in the ﬂesh cannot please GOD, and the carnal mind is not sub- ject to the Law of GOD, neither in- deed can be.” These are facts and ﬁgures too stout t-o be denied! Hence when you see a -person rising up in expression, and GOD, through His — Condescensiuon, will lift them, as they rise in consideration and they con- tinue to bring themselves into. iden- ti-ﬁcations in,any spiritior, anyisxpree The “SPOKEN worm” sion, it is plain ‘to see they are try- ing to be as a mocking-bird,—trying to mock GOD—which, in sh-ort is to rob GOD! GOD WORKS THE WILL AND THE DO IN MAN No mocking shall be done in the Kingdom. GOD alone shall do what- soever is done, and man shall be hiid once and forever, for I heard you say by your composition so often reiter—. ated: “GOD ALONE SHALL REIGN!” If there is any other ex- pression manifested whereby an in- dividual could acquire to themselves, orto himself or herself as an indi- vidual, it is an open expression that that person is trying to be a mock- ing-bird,——trying to mock GOD—'try- ing to be themselves aside ‘from GOD, and trying to do what GOD is doing and say what GOD is saying, that they might have Glory and Honor, and that they might be enthroned on the throne of the minds of men and reign over them as LORD of lords, ‘KING of kings, and QUEEN of queens; but such an assertion and such a version I am edethroning, I am dispelling from the consideration -of the true and the faithful, that they might recognize GOD’S PRES- ENCE as the only hope of Redemp- tion and as the only active working Power that can work and move and do, for it is GOD that Works the Will and the Do in you. GOD DOES ALL THE GOOD Take these thoughts to considera- tion,.. live in this recognition contin- ually; lo, I will be with you inspira- itionally and will inspire you dis- tinctly to understand the mysteries such as have been hid from the ages. Oh it is a privilege to live in the AC- TUAL PRESENCE of GOD and ob- serve GOD ruling on the throne of the minds of all of the children of men, by having all mankind and their expressions and all of their identities dethroned from among the children of men, that mankind might only ob- serve Him VVho liveth forever and forever, without and within. That is the only way that CI-IRIST will be your GOD in reality,——-is to dethron-e every other individual and every “other individual expression from your consideration and in your consideration, and enthrone the CHRIST as LORD of lords“-and as ' o . ,/ Saturday, .May 1 7 KING of kings and as QUE queens on the “throne of your~'Iﬁ I to make His Kingdom there—wl’ *5?

It is indeed Wonderful! MICHAELSHIP DEGREE OF EXPRESSION Then I say, none shall hinder Me, and they shall not intimidate you! The time has truly come, as said the ‘S cripture : “Michael, the Archangel, shall rise up in the defense of his peo- ple,” Aren’t you glad! . . . and some call him a destroying angel! . . , will de- stroy all things that are destnoyable and that are destructive, but will be harmless to the harmless and lov- ing to the loving and true to the truthful and kind to the kind. Now aren’t you glad! (‘So GLAD!’ con- ﬁrmed the assembly.) The Scripture must be fulﬁlled, and the time is truly at hand, according to the Prophet Daniel, Michael the archan- gel . . , now that is not matter nor materiality . . . it mayrise in mil- lions of bodies, the Michaelship «de- gree of expression in the Name of CHRIST, the Son of GOD, in the Name of GOD of Whom you say I AM! . . fulﬁlling the Mission and Calling of Him Who was to come in the Last Days. Oh it is a privilege to realize the mystery of GOD'S AC- TUAL PRESENCE! GOD CAN FUNCTION IN ANY BODIES HE PLEASES You know it is so Wonderful, as I said, there are millions of bodies; GOD is not conﬁned nor bound to -one body, but since He is functioning in these bodies, He will function Ac- curately and Perfectly until He gets ready to cease to function in them and function in others. If I Will to function in others, I will do it. If I Will to continue to function in these bodies as I am functioning, or trag,s- late Myself from this wave length of expression -from these bodies and in other bodies, and translate Myself in another wave length of expression in these bodies, and these bodies go right on as bodies have been doing, I can do it! For the last ﬁfty years there have been many different wave lengths of e_x'pression- manifested--in bodies; one Page 19 body has expressed it one time in an expression of My ‘Spiritual Emotions and Spiritual Ecstasy, and at an- other they expressed another expres- sion of it, and the expression others have expressed has gone on and been expressing in others, as though they were the reincarnators of it, and still those bodies by being true and faith- ful may be expressing another ‘waver’ , . . just like waves on the water, if you throw a stone in the water and you see another wave come, when the wave, a ripple which- ever, as it ripples, so the wave lengths of expression may be mani- fested in expression and go through certain changes, and that may go on and get in others, and yet there are other expressions coming right through and in these bodies, and go- ing right on like that. BODIES MAY EXCHANGE VIBRATION S This also proves to the world, the ALLNESS of GOD, the SPIRIT, and the nothingness of matter, saving as thematter-like bodies are brought into subjection and the Spirit works through them scientiﬁcally and accu- rately. Even in that, as it works through ‘them scientiﬁcally and accu- rately, it may go out of them with- out the body violating the Rule of the Spirit within them, and others may reincarnate that vibration, or that expression, that went through you, and yet you may reincarnate the expression and vibration and wave lengths that are going and coming in through and from some of them. UNIVERSAL MIND SUBSTANCE RETAIN S ALL There is nothing lost in the Great Universal ‘Mind Substance. Just think, your desires that have been spoken, and the forces that have gone forth in the ether, I hope you do not think they have ceased! The time may come yet that an inven- tion, a mechanical invention, may come forth into expression that you might be able to get the voices of millions, and your voices and words you have spoken twenty-ﬁve, thirty or ﬁfty years ago . you hear your voice ‘re-speaking’ it through the me- chanical instrument. It is nothing lost in the Great Universal Mind Sub- stance. Just as things are in the ,memory of millions, even so those words and voices" could still be some-F Page 2.0 where in the ether, and it is not im- possible for the INFINITE MIND, the UNIVERSAL MIND SUBSTANCE to inven-t an invention that will catch up those voices and re-speak them distinctly, though they have been spoken ﬁfty, one hundred or one thousand years ago. THINGS YOU COULD NOT PREVIOUSLY IMAGINE This is still showing you the ALL- NESS of GOD’ and the nothingness of matter, and the OMNl?SCIEN.CE_ of His ACTUAL PRESENCE among you, to teach Wisdom transcending all human intellect, yea above you-r fondest imagination, to bring to your consideration things you could not heretofore imagine. It would be strange to you some day if I would come- in with an instrument, orsome- one would come in with it, and you would hear your words you spoke twenty-ﬁve or thirty years ago, and it would remind you that you spoke those words just the same as you hear the voices on the radio distinct- ly and plainly spoken now, It is written that you shall give an ac- coun-t of every vain and idle thought and every word you say. Since man- kind are such big liars, I may bring about a mechanical instrument that will udistinctly explain it, that they r_ni_gh1; understand it and others be ' convinced that they did say those things. What says the Scripture ? ...‘How careful, then, ought you to live...” It is indeed wonderful! All of these words we are speak- ing now, think no-t to say within yourself they are just Pastime. Oh it is indeed Wonderful! Well, now My Spi-rit shall work accurately and perfectly, and it shall not be dis- turbed until I shall have brought PERFECTION to the material plane, and the FOUNT of G=OD’S OMNIS- CIENCE shall be distinctly seen and the children of men shall under- stand.

I-Ie declared that F-A'I‘-HER leaped into the air, “in a religious spell,” which was as near as his wordly- wise mind and lips could come to saying that FATHER was “in the SPIRIT,” as all Followers present had repeatedly declared. State Witnesses Fail to Agree Also, whereas Green and Clamora had testified that FATHER DI- VINE had spoken the words “Go get him,” the newspaperman said that he had heard no such remark, but that FATHER had simply mad.e a sound which he could not identify —again the wordly effort to state that FATHER, in the SPIRIT, was speaking “in tongues.” In addition the Judge ‘himself brought out the "fact from their testimony that Ca- mora had turned about after serv- ing the paper‘ so that his back was toward FATHER and that there- fore he could not see HIM at the moment when he declared he had been struck. None of the three witnesses for the state could identify anyone of the, defendants as having any part in the attack. They were Charles Calloway, Happy Boy Job and Roosevelt Perry. The detective who arrested -them declared he did so at Green's request when he took the three brothers to Green’s bedside in the hospital.

A committee made up promise. Some lawmakers thought the only way for Uncle Sam really to be neutral was to give up all trade with warring countries. Oth- ers argued that we should not sac- rifice any of our foreign trade just because other countries might choose to fight. The new law al- lows part of our foreign trade to continue on a cash basis, so long asvit does not endanger American lives or ships. Critics of the bill point out that it does not really make Uncle Sam neutral. If another European war should come, the chances are that Great Britain and France would be on one side, and Germany and Italy on the other. Since Great Britain and France have the stronger navies, they would be able to control trade with our country. Thus we would actually be helping the cause of France and Great Britain. Other Provisions The new law has other provisions which ‘Congress hopes may keep us out of war. (1) It warns American citizens that they may ‘travel on the vessels, of warring countries only at their own risk. (2) It prohibits loans to warring countries. (-However, it gives the President power to permit the col- lection of funds for medical aid, or for food and clothing to relieve hu- man suffering -in these countries.) (3) It forbids American vessels which trade with warring nations t0: arm. Penalties (4) It provides that any person who may ship arms or ammunition to a warring country in defiance of the President’s order shall be fined not mo-re than $10,000, or imprison- ed for not more than five years, or both. (5) It says that American ports may not be used as a base of sup- ply for the ships of warring coun- tries. The provisions of the neutrality act do not apply to any American republic which is at war withafor- eign country, unless the American republic is fighting to help another foreign country. A Strength and Weakness The new law has both friends and foes. Its friends say it will do away with the chief cause of our en- trance into the World War. Before the World War, the United States lent money and sold huge quantities of supplies on credit, chiefly to the Allies. Many believe that we enter- ed the war to help the Allies win and thus insure the repayment of our loans. Persons who have this belief point out that the new cash—and-carry plan will do away with credit. The provision against loans to» warring countries will also keep large sums of private American money from be- ing tied up in the war. Thus we shall have no selfish. interest in the outcome of such‘ a war. This fact, they believe, may help to keep us neutral. Foes of the bill do not think its provisions are strong enough to keep us out of war. A Pink Parasol They think that we entered the last war chiefly because our trade with neutral nations was interfered with by nations at war. There is nothing in the new law, they argue, to prevent the same thing from happening again. They say it is as foolish for Uncle Sam to expect the law to keep him out of war as it would be for a man to expect a child’s pink parasol to keep‘ him dry in a cloudburst. They agree, however, that even a moderate neutrality law is better than none at all. Much will depend on the desire of the Government and the people to keep out of war, they think, in case the temptation to fight comes. Anger is often more harmful than the injury that caused it.

Economist Tells, California Followers This Crisis Is the Last One ——-————o Los Angeles, Calif., May 8.——An interestinlg and -enthusiastic Right- eous Government meeting was held at 2602 Central Ave,, Thursday eve- ning, May 7. Honest Luke was the chairman and called on brother John Meekness to make the announce- ments. He announced that a bus load of FATHER’S children from Oakland and San Francisco would be in Los Angeles on Monday 2" day, on their way to see FATHER in New York, stopping for the children that were going from Los Angeles. Also that the Board would not meet on that, their regular night, that all the Chil- dren here might greet and meet in song and praise to FATHER DIVINE, the childrenfrom the above cities. Bnother Meekness stressed at this particular time, that all the Glory goes to FATHER DIVINE; that GOD alone shall reign; the earth is the LORD’S and the fullness thereof. The children from Long Beach sang this ins.pirati0n.a‘1 song: “Mighty JEHOVAH DIVINE, My Holy FATHER DIVINE, The name that will save and carry us thru, Mighty JEHOVAH DIVINE.” Peaceful John read from The SPO- KEN WORD, Righteousness Marches On. Then the chairman said, “Not un- til FATHER came have we had tes- timonies confessing about stolen goods and making amends and pay- ing bills we never intended to pay. When big business starts “paying back”——won’t we have something coming? They will soon have to be- gin to disgorge, too.” Inspirational song by Peaceful Li- lio-“Wonderful FATHER of-« Mine.” The Comforter Has Come Sister Hall, from Long Beach, made some interesting remarks and said in part, that contacting the . HOLY SPIRIT of FATHER DIVINE * delivers all things. If you know who FATHER DIVINE is, then you know that everybody in the world is now healed. If the COMFORTER has come, then HE is here now and HE -does comfort. When, ..-you know the in part, that FATHER says, when one is harmonious, it is H-E. When one is inharmonious it is ‘the other fellow.’ «So we know all the time who we are. -She tol-d us more of that wondenful Peace Restaurant at the fork of the road in Santa Cruz, Where not even a cigarette is al- lowed to be smoked as patrons drive up to be served.

Sister Millar gave a report of her work in passing out SPOKEN WORDS in the hospital. Brother Roine spoke on Coopera- tion among the » fol-lowers, pointing out that money was merely a medi- um of exchange an-d not represen- tative of true value. He announced the Mass meeting at San Diego on Saturday, May 15, at Lincoln High School, 12th and Estreets.’ Hugh E. MacBe.th, the guest speaker_ It was hoped that at least a hundred would plan on making the trip. This Crisis Is the Last One Dr. Wolf Adler, who has so gra- ciously addressed us several times, came again and ,spoke on, Why I be- lieve this present Economic Crisis is the last one,‘ and cannot be solved by the present capi.talistic system, with old minds and old ideas, but with new minds and new ideas which rep- resent the people. His talk was spir- ited and enjoyed as he went dynami- cally from point to point through a series of sequences andcomparisons of relationships of former crises with the present one. He said the pres- ent crisis cannot be solved with the former methods as in 1873, 1884 and 1907. Competition has been not the‘ life, but the death of trade.

The greatness of the Goodness of the ALMIGHTY GOD, FATHER DI- VIN‘E, is continually demonstrated on all ﬁelds of life as well as in the po- litical ﬁeld where HE is on active duty. At this meeting intelligent discus- sions took place that made the chil- dren more determined to master the principles and methods of govern- ment. The acting chairlady gave several names of the elected senators in the various Senatorial Districts of New York City. Following in discussions came the deﬁnition and explanation of “Refer- endum,” and information about the ofﬁce of Mayor of this -City. Also the ways by which the City’s Aldermen receive graf-t money, came to light by a. well informed speaker. The attention of the followers was drawn to the manner in which the sales tax is handled and many ideas and Views were exchanged. During the time of this meeting an announcement was made by ra- dio concerning the anti—lynching bill recently passed in the House and now before the Senate and all present in the hall rejoiced in rec- ognizing the Power of FATHER DI- VINE.

In printed floor coverings, the design Wears off before the cov} ering wears out, so it is advisable, to protect this kind of floor cover» ing with a coat of spar varnish or. liquid bakelite. Some prefer cle. linoleum varnish, which dries mo -._, quickly but also wears off ‘quicker. As a rule, the longer it takes a. fin-‘ ish to dry, the longer it will last.-._ Wiping the feet before enteri 1"‘ helps to keep out mud and sand both of which soon wear off the to surface of the linoleum. Scouring. powder acts in the same way; sd; does dirt. Strong soap will eat and roughen the surface of the linoleum. A mild soap should be used or it necessary to use scouring powder‘ use a fine one such as. whi-tening,_‘. which can be bought as powder chalk at the hardware store for at bout five cents a pound and will be found to be much easier on >1 pattern.

No. 61 The Government of This Country Must Be Con- verted From All Unrighteousness, and Be Con- verted Unto Righteousness, Truth and Justice Each of You ShouldEXpress the Spirit of True Americanism and Declare Your Independence As an Individual Even As You Have As a Country —::: “OUR FATHER’S MES-SAGE” AT THE BANQUET TABLE, NO. 20 WEST 115TH STREET, NEW YORK CITY, MONDAY AFTER- NOON, MAY TENTH, 1937 A.D. F.D. TIME: 1:50 P.M. In order that all might be apprized together, on the one and same Sub- ject, and that all might be able to share each -other’s joys alike, it is necessary that all understand and be enlightened together. In these va- rious Meetings of The PEACE MIS- SION, where the Followers assemble themselves together for the purpose of learning‘ of GOD, and to render Praise and Thanksgiving unto the Matchless Name of CHRIST, where Song after Song is Sung for long pe- riods of time, with all of the fervor and sincerity possessed by the indi- viduals, ‘it is possible,” said FATHER DIVINE, the Great ADVOCATOIR of TRUTH, ‘that those who are not fa- miliar with our custom of Worship, would not understand the reason for the exultancy on the part of the F01- lowers, unless some explanation with reference to same is given.” For this reason, on this occasion, while friends and strangers sat in our midst, and some partoonk of the Feast, FA- THER, Who is always concerned in the common good of everyone, and Who constantly gives His PRECIOUS LIFE as a Sacriﬁce for the .we’ll-.be- ing of others, arose, and standing in our midst, called the attention of the Followers to the fact, that if they would explain in words just why they sing over and over and over such songs similar to the one they had just concluded singing: “Deep «down 'in my heart I love YOU, FATHER,” etc., the non-follower could and would also understand, and knowing the Truth of the matter, their hearts would, also be inditing a good mat- ter, iii telling the Story of “PEACE, GOOD WILL and BROTHERLY LOVE to all mankind.” There is’ so much Good that FA- THER DIVINE has done for all of the people, ‘both those who are di- rect and immediate Followers and Believers, and those who are non- believers, that one could go on tel}.- ing and explaining the Goodness of GOD, as manifested in their experi- ence individually, until the very stub- born and conﬂicting individual, whose heart is like unto stone, would be compelled to see and understand why the Angels in HEAVEN, give Adora- tion and Praise to their SAVIOUR, FATHER DIVINE, and their stony hearts being convinced of the TRUTH, would be compelled, even though unwil-lingly, to accept of the reality of the PRESENCE of GOD, in the midst of the would be compelled to say, “Surely, no man doeth such things.” It is only when one comes in contact with FATHER DIVINE, and is /Willinug to bring his body into subjection to the Life and Teaching of CHRIST, that the Scripture is fulﬁllle-d in th-is par- ticular instance: “Veri.ly", verily, I say unto thee,’ except a man be born again, people, They I Page 4 The “SPOKEN WORD” he cannot see the Kingdom of GOD.”‘’ . “How can a man be born again?” asked Nicodemus. Now if Nicodemus came i.n contact with the rChurch members, there is no wonder why he asked such a question, for although many have been changed partially through the Avenue of the Church, the Institution of CHRIST, it was not possible for man to be saved from the bondage’ of corruption until such time when CHRIST would return to the Earth, for many of the things that were regarded by the Christian as legitimate and honorable, are un- righteous and dishonorable in the Sight of GOD, for those who followed the LAMB whithersoever HE goeth, “were found without fault before the Throne of GO .” Therefore, in view of this fact, the nations of the earth are now seeing a new people, coming up in Righteousness, serv-ing the True and Living GOD. They are like unto no other people, for they are the ‘Sons and Daughters of Right- . 'eousne.ss, transformed an-d redeeme-d from sin. Mr, William Picke-ns, Jr., Attorney,‘ being one of the guests on this oc- " casion stated that this was his ﬁrsut visit among us here in this Building, but that he did not see how anyone could sit here without being moved. He expressed -his delight in meeting FATHER, Whom he had long desired to meet. He told of his attitude re- garding pe’:rsecutio‘n, and stated that his father, his organization an-d he were at all times ﬁgh-ting persecu- tion, and in con-clusion, he offered his service, if such could be of any ben- eﬁt ‘ This Great MESSAGE as given by‘ FATHEIR on this occasion, shall live on in the hearts and minds of men, where its impression is indelible. THANK YOU CHRIST OUR LORD. Song by audience: “Deep down in my heart, I love YOU, FATHER! Deep down in my heart I love YOU, LORD, Deep down in my heart I love YOU, FATHER, , Deep down in my heart I love YOU, \ LORD.” PEACE EVERYBODY: (“‘-i5eace -DEAIHR!” greet- ed the enthusiastic Assaeinhiy.) That little Composition just sung over and over again, may cause the minds of the children of men, especially those who are not acquainted with your con:v~i-ction and of. your past experi- ence, it may cause the-m to Wonder what are you singing about, and what does it mean when you continue to sing and reiterate the same: “Deep , down in my heart I love Y-OU, FA- THER.” The question comes from «the hearts and minds of the children of men, those who do not know the TRUTH concerninfg “Why is it they say they love HIM?” ‘Merely to say you love ME, is not s-ufﬁ-cieriit. It is not enough to give mankind in- formation why you are telling the nations and all of t-he earth here, there and every~wh’ere, you love ME. There must Ibe some reason for it.. If there is a reason f-or it, they wish _ to know why is it; what is the cause of it, and what about it, what mean- eth ye? You may hear the c-hildren of men say: “Why is it you say you love that Man so?” Now if you tell the world why you -do love ME, Why then they will also know. That is what I want to say this afternoon. While you sing and sing and sing and stress your Reli- gious Conviction and say it contin- uously, until the very Heaven rings, yet it is not convincing to those who do not understand, unless you ex- plain why you say you love ME; but if everybody knew deﬁnitely what had been done for you, they too, as well as you, could say, “I don't blame them for loving YOU.” Yon HAVE SOMETHING To PRAISE GOD FOR When you have been lifte-d lfrom vice and from crri-me, from sin and debauchery of every kind, when you have been lifted from dep-ressions, hardships, hard trials and tribula- tions, segregations and every other detestable -tendency and expression among us, when you have ﬂoeen freed from those con-dition-s, then I say, “You have something to Praise GO-D for.” If it were only «for the priv- ileuge of being free from segregation in this great City of ours, it would ‘be wo-rth your consi-dera-tion, it would be worth your Praise to think of what GOD has done for you; broken the barriers of limitations and the bounds thereof, and has set you free from segregation, prejudice and oth- er detestable tenaeneies of which and under which millions have been un- Tuesday, May 18th,t1 , dergoing from the early existence , . the Light of Civilization in -Country, especially; then aside from‘. lifted from «g doubts and fears; you have been lift-u ed éfroom lacks and wants and limi- _7 you are actually fulﬁlling % the -Songs of the Religious World of that, you have been tations; expression: “I will eat at the WELCOME ‘- TABLE some of the-se days.” ‘ENETOYING THE SPLENDOR AND THE FULNESS This is no longer a supposition; it i. is no longer an imagination; it is no: longer a Hope for the future of sit-t ting some day at the BANQUET ', TABLE, but as you sit daily in the j‘ presence of the congregation of these 5' people in this great City, with the 1 ABUN DANCE of the FULLNEJSS of f all good things, such as earth can .2 aff-or-d, while others on the without -I are living in lacks, Wants and limi- tations, while you are enjoying the SPLENDOR and the FULLNESS of a PLENTY; «then it is enough in it- ’ -self to let you know that you should ' -tell mankind what GOD has done for’. you, and what you are Praising GOD -so for. Aren't you glad? (“So glad!"', vehemently shouted the Assembly.) ' ‘TELL THE WORLD .- Since you have been lifted from, depres-sions, lacks, want-s and limita-’ tions in the very midst of the great depression of our past experience for ,1 the last ﬁve or seven years, millions ‘H who are now living in -splendor, with‘ the ABUNDANCE of the FULL-_ NESS of a PLENTY from every an-A. gle expressible, they have been in, lacks and wants and limitations and, under hard depressions, while otheki, ‘Spirit of My PRESENCE came in_;, the rnidst o-f them, and 1-ifted them « from those conditions to the extreme‘: reverse to such, expressing the,‘ AIBUNDANCE of the FULLNESS of all good things, and proving to the. world conclusively: “CHRIST is‘ RICH and all you need.” For this,‘ cause, you can rejoice and be ex-': ceedingly glad, but while we are singing an-d s'.tres.sing our convic-ti" so vividly, let us tell the people‘ deﬁf nitely what we are talking about,“a", why we stress these Songs of P’ i so vividly and continuously. It i cause of. our ‘conscious conviction our realization; of what has ac uloeen done in the time of.--,_so-=,c May— l:8th, 193’? ,’;_i-depressions, hardships, lacks, wants Jﬁgnvd lim-itations,—-—GOD h-as abundant- ly Blessed you above your fellow- ” -men. _ ‘EXPRESS THE SPIRIT ‘OF AMERICAN ISM Aside from all of this, just think of it, not a one of My true Follow- ‘crs. is on. the Welfares, not one of them. All of them have been lifted ' ﬁrom. begging and: from the public . eha.;;i.ties, that they might express the 3 Spirit of 1-,rue.A1,nerioa_ni.sm, as I have } stressed it from time to time. Each « hdiviclual should express the Spirit ‘ of’ true Americanism from that an- gle. of expression. As I may say po- ii-tieally or nationally, as an indi- vidual, each. of you should express the Spirit of Americanis-m, from that A, angle of expression, an-d declare your ' INDEPENDIENCE as an individual, "S even. as you have declared. your IN- DEPENDENCE as a Country. (“Tru- - liy Wonderful!” exclaimed‘ the multi- ' tude.) A All of Uncle Sam's children or sub- ‘; jects whichever, should be able to de- clare individually and severally an-d collectively and Universally their IN- . DEPENDENCE, even as the United ‘ States of America declared its In- dependence over the aggressive at that time even. Aren’t you glad? . FULFILL SPIRIT or CONSTITUTION ' It is a privilege to realize GOD in the midst of you i-s mighty to save, , HE has lifted you and i-mlbueud you with the Spirit of IN-‘DEPENDENCE transmitted from the Declaration of Independence of the Independence of this Country. As you live in it, and live under it, you should produce the characteristics and the nature of the 1‘ Country in which you are living, and express your ABSOLUTE Independ- 5, ence according to the Declaration of 7 Independence; not only so, but you 7- should express the Spirit of the Con- stitution of the United States as an ,1 individual, an-d fulﬁll it in yourselves 2‘ itndi-vidually and severally, that you , might be the expression of true Qiilmericanism in this Land of the Liv- ing, that the Government, of our ,present Civilization might not perish om the earth. ..:s: M US Gowr mnrnonm snvn CIVILIZATION’ ‘es Americanism‘ is not devel- '-'sroKr:lN wont» oped in you individually and several- ly and collectively and Universally, the Government of our present Civili- zation, esp-eciall-y this Country, woul-d perish from the earth, and this Goun- try would become to be a place in- sulﬁcienzt and unﬁt in which to». live. For this cause, by My Spirit and by My Mind, I have drafted a RIGHT- EOUS GOVERNMENT PLATFORM for the. purpose of establishing the children. of men upon a Foundation that they might cope w-ith the Right- eous and: J ust-thinkin-g people, an-d the peoples of the earth, that they might enact laws, rules -and regula- tions under this Constitution, that they might GOVERNMENT in which we are now living. The Government of this Country must be converted from all unright- eousness, from all violence and from all destructiveness, from all destruc- tion from every angleexpressi-ble, and be conv-erted unto RIGHTEOUS- NESS, TRUTH and JUSTICE. MANKIND CANNOT UNDERSTAND Oh! It is a privilege to live in the A-CTUA-L PRESENCE of GOD, and observe the Mystery, what it is all about. That is why mankind are stirred;——they are stirred, from place to place throughout the length and the breadth of this land They can- not understand how can a Man do those things, as I might be termed, but I shall not be discouraged, nei- ther will I be dismayed until I shall have Univers-ally ESTABLISI-I-ED My Endeavors and accomplished My Plan and My Purpose. As I have -it un- der My PERSONAL Jurisdiction, it shall be Universall-y established, with or without MY PERSONAL PRES- ENCE. I stress “with or without MY PERSONAL PRESENCE?’ I can- not stress it too vividly. Why? Be- cause “it is not by power, nor by might, but by My Spirit,” says the LORD. I would be timid, and I would be fearful if I were depend,- ing on the visible observation of MY ACTUAL PRESENCE, as GOD is PERSONAL, IMP-ERSONAL and yet remains PERSONAL, INVI- SIBLE and EXISTABLE with or without Person, therefore, HE will accomplish His. Endeavors; whatsoever HE has ¢‘andeavored,»that 5 have a RIGHTEOUS- Pago 5 ‘shall be accomplished, for it is not by My Physical power, nor the Work of My Human or Personal Mental- ity, “but by My Spirit,” says the LORD. TRANSMISSION OF SPIRIT ‘()1-’ERATI~VE AS ELECTRICITY The transmission of the Spirit, the Nature and the Characteristics of ‘CHRIST are just as operative and just as functio-nable as the trans- mission ‘of Electricity through a wavelength. GOD in His MAJESTY, through His Condescension inspires mankind with the skill and ability to bring about such inven-tions as the Radio Broadcasting System. The Radio Broadcasting System in itself, with the connection of Elec- tricity and its other inventions con- nected with it, are merely Parables of the mystery of the transmission of GOD’S Spirit, of GOD HIM- SELF, His MAJESTY, His LOVE and His MERCY to the Earth, hence, if the Broadcasting Station through which the Mutual Broadcasting Sys- tem is represented would seemingly be destroyed by fire, it would not destroy the reality of the Mystery, for it would still be as operativeas it was before it was destroyed. That which has been brought to the surface and ha.s been brought into the understanding of the chil- dren of men, -if the Inventors them- selves failed as individuals, the In- vention is no-t a failure. The In- vention is substantiated; it is sub- stantial for Eternity. ONE PREDICTS AND ANOTHER FULFILLS The prophetsand seers prophesied of what you are now enjoying,-— many of them have been cut off of the stage of Action and have gone to try or see whether there is a reality in any other world of ex- istence, but their predictions, today we fulfill. One predicts and another fulfils. One predicts and another re- predicts. The re-iterated prediction of the TRUTH that was predicted, GOD in His MAJESTY transmits it, while others are the Receivers and the Catchers of that which h.as been transmitted, causing them also to re-predict it. The re-prediction of’ the prophets, -the re-prediction of the seers, the the re-prediction oﬁ:-the»_S;pi.__1;it may» be re.-predicted . and -reiterated over \ —. °-"*??=*?§.”“'“'~—‘:-. ‘express ‘S Page 6 and over again; while those through whom the prediction came, may be a failure from time to time;-—those through whom the reiterated pre- diction comes, they too, as well as those through whom the prediction first came, may also be a failure from ‘time to time, but the predic- tion still remains. If it were given by the Spirit of GOD, the prediction is true, world without an end. Aren't you glad? (“So glad!” as- sured the multitude.) IN MY NAME YE SHALL CAST OUT We shall not be discouraged until we shall have established a RIGHT- EOUS GOVERNMENT universally as we have it within ourselves in- dividually and severally. Now isn't that wonderful? It is a privilege to realize you can, and will eventually unify your- selves together universally as Ihave it, under My PERSONAL Juris- diction. All of the families of the earth shall recognize the RIGHT- EOUS GOVERNMENT of which I AM now bringing into expression in the Name of CHRIST JESUS, GOD your Holy FATHER. If there be a question in the minds of My Hearers, did HE not say: “In MyVName ye shall cast out ‘Other FelloWs’?” Do you not see the significance of having My Name established among this people, that GOD might His MAJESTY over the ‘Other Fellow’ better known by the Religions, “the devil?” Aren't you glad? (“So glad!” exultantly ex- claimed the Hearers.) “WHO CAN BE AGAINST US?” Men may come, and men may go, but I, of Whom you say I AM, shall . go on forever. There are -not enough powers of darkness to hinder, for the Mouth of GOD has spoken it.

NOT HIS WORK ALONE, BUT OURS ALSO For this cause we are rejoicing, and we are exceedingly glad to know definitely once andforever, with or without My PERSON, My Work and My Mission shall go on un- disturbed and unhandicapped, for the Mouth of GOD has spoken it, and as I have long since declared, “Here you are, and there I AM;” “There Isit, and here YOU stand,” Then I say, that which is My Work, as it may be termed, is not Mine alone, but it is yours. I ‘say, it is yours as Well as Mine. For this cause, the unity of the Spirit, of Mind, of Aim and of Purpose is a Living Reality. When we unify our- selves together unselfishly, when it is expressed, you will find it is ex- pressible and operative for each and all of us. I thank you.

Members of the National Geo- graphic »Society—Uni*ted States Navy Expedition, are landing at the islands this week with a strange assortment of crew and ‘cargo, The crew consists of scientists, naval oﬂicers, Hawaiian surf swim- mers, an artist, and a radio an- nouncer, aboard the ship Avocet. The cargo inclusdes spider webs, shotguns and the refrigerator. The island is uninhabited, except for mil- lions of rats, the ancestors of which swam from boat-s wrecked on its shores. The Hawaiian swimmers are to be used in getting the equipment through the su-rf «over the coral reefs that surround all of the islands, and the cement is required to fashion con- crete bases and platforms for the tel- escopes and their attached cameras. The webs, drawn from spider co- coons, so delicate and light that 15,- 000 miles of them could go into a one pound package, are used as cro-ss hairs on the eye pieces of some of the telescopes as an aid in measuring , the diameter of celestial bodies and in establishing the exact time when 3. star passes a point in the heavens. Eclipse Will Last Seven Minutes All hands are hoping for cloudless skies during four precious minutes on June 8, when the moon will blot out the sun and provide science with the best opportunity in 1,238 years to study phenomena connected wi-th the eclipse. Fifteen hundred miles away, in the open ocean where nobody will -see, the meeting of the sun and the moon will last for seven full minutes.

Many are the in- stances when performers have finis' - ed a selection with only three strings. The radio violinist, Dave Rubinoff, recently had an occur- rence of this sort. When playing an elaborate arrangement of the popular composition, “Delicious, De- lightful, De-1ovely.” In this case, the player sensed t‘he impending dis- aster and managed by significant gestures, to convey his thought to a member of his orchestra, who: pick- ed up the melody and it to a finish without the listeners being aware of the circumstance. A story is told of Paganini, the I wizard of the violin, in which it is stated that while he was perform- ing an extremely difficult selection one string after another’ broke un- til but one remained whole; nev- , ertheles-s, he finished triumphantly on that string. Such a feat cannot be fully appreciated except -by those who have an understanding of violin technic. Orpera, with its length of perform- ance and many persons and situ- ations involved, is a fertile field for emergencies. The celebrated American opera- tic sopran-o, Lillian Nordica, showed her presence of mind in a perform- ance of “Tosca.” In the second act, containing the supper scene, the tablecloth caught fire from burn- ing candle drippings. The singer noticed it and put out the blaze by car-ried. Page 7 slapping -the cloth with her hands, singing he-r part meanrwhile. Another operatic emergency, of a different sort, occurred at a per- formance of Wagner’s opera, “Die Walkuere.” Siegmund, the her-0, had allowed Sieglinde to slip gently to the ﬂoor of the stage feigning sleep, and was singing when she said to him as quietly as possible, “Hurry up and get through; I’m lying on a nail.” On one occasion the writer was in the middle of a piano ‘piece when everything “went black.” He never knew how long that .moment lasted, but afterward was told there‘ was no break in the performance and no indication of anything unusual. On another occasion a youngWo- man was turning pages for one of , the selections at an organ recital, sitting at the player’s right. At the turn of one page her finger came against the edge of the leaf and continued thus, pushing the leaf off the rack from which it fell onto the foot-pedals. Lack of space behind the organist made it impossible for her to recover the leaf. The or- ganist continued to play with one hand while ‘bending over to pick up the fallen music with the other and replacing it on the rack. The writer was present when one of the noted European pianists for- got his place in a long work during a recital and improvised artistically until he hit upon a p-assage of the original work and carried it to a finish, This also has probably hap- pened to -many musicians. It must be taken as one of the things that may happen and must be forgiven. FISH STORY On an island in the Pacific, the fish weree so plentiful that the Peli- can merely -had to pick them ou-t of the water. It was so easy they for- got how to fish for food, Then came a bad season for fish and the Pelicans starved by the hundreds waiting for food. -Some natives sent away and. brought Pelicans from distant shores that straightway started diving for food and immediately all the Pelicans remembered their ol-d .methods and business became very good.—Ad in - y Printers Ink.

KNIGHT Finnish cooperation is of particu- lar interest to the American cooper- ative movement because of the major ‘role of Finnish-Americans in estab- lishing some of the strongest co-op- » eratives here. The movement in Fin- land is also signiﬁcant because, in spite of its late start, it lea-ds all other European countries in the per- centage of retail business handled. In most other countries the co-op- erative movement began with local societies which slowly came together in "federations. In Finland coopera- tion started from an established cen- ter and moved outward according to a preconceived plan. In 1899 the Pellervo society was organized as a cooperative propaganda and educa- tional society by Hannes Gebbard, a professor of agriculture who had made a thorough study of coopera- tives in other countries and who saw in cooperation not only a means of economic betterment but a means of preserving I Finnish national life threatened by Russian oppression, Pellervo helped set up central organ- izations for the Various types of co- operatives: consumer, credit, cream- ery, and agricultural co-ops, thus en- abling all new societies to beneﬁt from their collective experience and avoid repetition of costly errors. More Than Half the ‘Families of —Fin'lan~d Within 35 years the movement has -grown to inclu-de well over half the -families in Finland, which has a pop- ulation of about 3,600,000, Consum- e-r co-ops accounted for $70,000,000 in sales in 1935, about 30 -per cent of the total retail trade and 40 per cent of the trade of products handled by the co-ops—~food and household com- modities. . Two consumer cooperative unions, each with its respective wholesale and -productive plants, have existed in iFin»land.s'ince 1917 when a ‘number of the large urban societies withdrew ‘from the older federation on the grounds that it did not permit union- ization o-f its employees and that be- cause the large urban societies had only one vote, the policies of the union were dominated by small rural societies. Testing Lxaiboiratories Save Millions While the cleavage was not clear- cut between’ the rural and urban group_s,_ the older neutral ‘federation, Y. O. L,, is composed largely of farm- ers (68 per cent of the total member- ship owning or occupying land) who are not -favorable to trade unions among cooperative employees. Its wholesale, S. O. K., however, has shown a «steady growth in the num- ber of shops, total membership, and total sales, the increase in rural areas making up for the los=s of urban so- cieties. Between 1920 and 1935 the number of shops increased from 1,587 to 2,884 while the number of socie- ties decreased from 484 to 417, il- lustrating the almost universal ten- dency for small societies to merge into stronger ones and operate more stores. The rural societies often func- tion as general purpose co-ops, buy- ing grain, eggs, butter, meat, etc. from their members as well as sell- ing a great diversity of household goods and farm supplies. It is esti- mated that the testing laboratory of the wholesale, which rejects about 25 per cent of all goods submitted as of inferior quality, saves its mem- bers a million dollars a year. Federation Triples Membership The Progressive federation, K. K., which had more than half of the membership but not of the societies at the time of the split, has tripled its membership since 1918, About 28.5 per cent of its members are small farmers and farm laborers, 14 per cent white collar classes, and the remainder industrial workers. While most of its members are Social Dem- ocrats or other ‘left -partisans, the federation is not connected with any political party. Consumer -co-ops in Finland stress low prices instead of patronage re- funds and hence attract considerable non-member consumers, doing about one-ﬁfth of their total trade with non-members. Th-is policy helps to bring new members. To assure a voice to minority groups many of the large societies have adopted a proportional representation system whereby 30 to 60 delegates are elect- ed by the members for the annual meeting. A much larger percentage of members vote under this system than in British societies, for exam- ..ple. Consumer cooperative enterprise is supplemented by other important co- operatives.

I offered The "Seniors .woRp?’ FATHER DIVINE say they have new bodies and ‘bear no record’ of any existence before coming in con- tact with FATHER DIVINE. It is because their lives have undergone such ‘a complete change, through the transforming of their mind first- ly, that they are no longer the same persons. The old natures and char- acteristics are dead, and a new life is being lived. Any reference made to a former existence brings back thoughts and memories of unclean and unhappy lives, and since thoughts become to be things when they are visualized, it is only natural that anyone should not wish to re- turn to the state from which they had been lifted. You are therefore only antagonizing the followers when you insist that they give details of amiserable existence which has been blotted from their memories, for their old identities are lost as they live their real nature» (names) which are Christ's. I feel that this explanation of the answers given'in the recent ques- tioning of FATHER DIVINE Fol- lowers will give you a better under- standing and more respect for their religious belief which, in your ig- norance of the reasons behind them, you considered ‘foolish. After all, you are not investigating the past lives of FATHER DIVINE’S Follow- ers,—-you are investigating the FA- THER DIVINE PEACE MISSION MOVEMENT, in order to ascertain whether or not the statement of a malicious woman and others like her, are true. -It should be obvious. to anyone that the CHRIST LIFE was too strict for her to live up to, and like some others when they become disgruntled because the FUNDAMENTAL PRINCIPLE will not change to conform to their own selfish ideas, she is maliciously en- deavoring to discredit an-d defame the PEACE MISSION MOVEMENT and FATHER DIVINE Who, as -everyone knows and even from her own often repeated statements, lift- ed her from the v-ilest sort of an existence.

The Com- mand of the Gospel for men to: “Awake to Righteousness and sin not,“ was thought to be an awaken- ing at some future date far beyond their irnaginatio-n. But through the Light of this Dispensation, Right- eousness that has been lying dor- mant within the lives of men is awakened, and the whole of Civili- zation is coming into 'the”'Birt”h of a New Day—a Day already advanced in the lives of millions upon mil- lions, through MY Righteous Gov- ernment Program that calls for Righteousness, Justice and Truth to be established throughout the Earth. As: “Charity begins at home and spreads abroad,” I have firstly ‘be- gun to create the Spirit of Truth within the HEARTS of men, that the same might spread abroad into the affairs of all government. Hence you see the invisible is made visible ——the concealed is unconcealed and made plain unto the Children of Men, as Righteousness is manifest- edly brought forth from out of the invisible and made tangible and practical in the lives and affairs of all mankind. By this Spirit of Truth, I AM creating Heaven here on Earth, that men might no longer dwell in the shell of mortality—the embryo of Salvation, but that they might be birthed mentally and Spiritually in the Light of this New Day—crea- tures of immort'ality—-of Righteous- ness, Justice and Tr th. Wishing you the best, this leaves ME as I would you might be, Well, Healthy, Joyful, Peaceful, Lively, Loving, Successful, "Prosperous and- Happy in Spirit, Body and Mind. and inevery organ, muscle, sinew, joint, limb, vein and bone and even in every atom, fibre and cell of MY Bodily Form.

The Senate Judiciary Committee meets tomorrow to vote on the plan. Various substitutes are before the committee, but some of the com- promise «Senators who backed substi- tutes agains.t Mr. Roosevelt’s original proposal are -believed now to prefer a straight test an-d perhaps an all-or- nothing decision. This change in strategy is attribut- ed to resentment against the Presi- dent’s refusal to compromise and intimation that White House displeasure would scorch recalcitrant -Democrats The committee’s action tomorrow will carry the court debate to t-he Senate floor. Farley’s remarks promise .to arouse strong protest, although patronage - and White House pressure are tradi- tional weapons in contests between executive and legislative branches of government. Every Administration, Democratic -or Republican, has used them. Emerging from a conference with Mr. Roosevelt at the White House, Farley assured questioners there would be no compromise with the court demands. He was asked about several bolting Democratic Senators who have balked at voting the six-justice expansion of the court demanded by the President. “The bill is going through,” Farley replied “VVhen Senator O’Mahoney comes down here wanting help on a - sugar ubill, his conscience Won’t be bothering him, will it? Or when Pat Mocarran. wants" aid for his State? -1“t’s all in the point of view.” The «sromim worm!’ Homer Martin Optimistic As Drive For Ford Unionizatiopn Starts; “Expects No Trouble” Kansas City, May 16 (FDP).——The United Automobile Workers “don’t expect any resistance” in starting a . drive this week to unionize Ford plants, Homer Martin, president, de- -clared today. ’ He said the drive would not -be handicapped by the possibility of Ford wage scales being increased, as Ford ofﬁcials recently hinted_ “The workers realize no change of this sort will ever be made without the presence and power of the union,” he stated in an interview.

The question on the lips or in the minds of many today is: “What is this MIGHTY POWER, this GREAT INFLUENCE, that is transforming millions inTall walks of life? Can FATHER DIVINE truly be GOD, as His many devoted Followers ardent- ly declare?” and, “If He is ‘GOD, why doesn’t He strike me ‘down when I blaspheme Him? . . . Why doesn‘t He prove it by turning Water into wine, or by doing this, that or the o-ther?’*’ . This is but the repetition of his- tory in fulfilment of the Scripture. What said Jesus nineteen hundred years ago when He was asked to "prove that He was the SAVIOUR? Said the Scribes and the Pharisees: “Master, we would see-1a sign from Thee.” But He answered .them: “An evil and adulterous generation seek- eth after a sign; and there shall no sign be given to it.” And again says the Scripture: “Not by might, but by My SPIRIT! saith the LORD.” Did Jesus come as a mighty King, commandeering and domineering? No. He came in the meekest and lowliest manner, was rejected and despised by those whose eyes were blinde-d by materialism. Did those of high station, humanly speaking, an- ‘swer His Invitation to dine with Him? No, it was the halt and the lame and the blind, the sinners and publicans, who ‘filled His Table. The ‘others had various and .sundry ex- ‘cuses. Last’-ly, did He not say that He was returning -to the bosom of His FATHER, but that He would re- turn? “And My FATHER and I shall make our abode with thee.” Generations and generations have passed. Ghost,» have returned! . . ._veiled in the meek and lowly Body of FA-_ ../' men "FATHER, Son and ‘Holy, “Come Forth Into Expressi‘-o‘n :—_.: THER DIVINE, that He might lift even the lowest, and that only the pure in heart shall ‘see’ Him. “Those that have ears, let them hear, and those that "have eyes, let them see.” Daily, FATHER DIVINE is scien- tifically proving to a wicked and adulterous generation by the Works of His SPIRIT, that He is the One ‘and only True and Living GOD, and to those who inquire after Him, He still says: “If anyone.inquire after Me, tell him I said first deny him- self.” Only by a self-denial,-a denial of all human ideas and opin- ions, all versions of men, their theories and doctrines, can one re- move the veil and see and know—— recognize—GOD in the Flesh——-FA- THER ‘DIVINE. At the age of twelve years, as count time, Jesus, unschooled and illiterate, confounded the Wise, as in His own language He taught the Gospel ‘of Salvation. In this day and dispensation, still without the education of men, He continues in the FATHERSHIP "Degree, to set before mankind a blessing and a cursing, for each and all individual- ly to choose, and in His own Words of simple logic He reveals life's mys- teries, that none need continue to grope in darkness. The Message of FATHER ‘DI- VINE, GOD ALMIGHTY, at the Banquet Table of the King’s Town Extension on this occasion, was both personal and impersonal. As a sample and example He lifted one from the vilest of existences. After this Won- derful ‘Blessing, by her own mis- deeds and deviation from His Teach- ings, she has made of herself a’ sample and example of what occurs‘ when one INHARMONIOUSLY con? , tacts their own ‘CREATOR. Under the scientific Law, the Law of the I Spirit that impersonally blesses or curses, according to the belief of the individual, she has damned her own soul. -Let all take heed of His Words of ‘Life and Spirit, that they“ might not do ‘likewise!

Now it may be termed a Blessing; it may be termed that I am Blessing you; it may be termed I have Blessed you; it may be term- ed I have cursed you; and cursed be the one that disbelieves GOD, for they are cursed by My Holy Word! Now aren’t you glad! I thought of those things .. .now, you can come ‘before Me thousands of miles away——I might say thou- sands of miles away Personally—— yet you come before Me and be abundant-ly Blessed by thinking of Me harmoniously. You may come be- fore Me thousands of miles away, as thousands have done and as thou- sands are doing today, coming be- fore Me far away, but inharmoni- ously contacting Me, and they are cursed beyond degrees. You may say GOD does not curse. Well, it is im- material to Me whether GOD curses or Blesses! If GOD Blesses, He curses, and if GOD curses, He Bless- es! Aren't you glad! Watch everything and see if these in harmony with Me shall be Bless- ed by living thus accordingly, and everything inharmonious shall be under the curse of the forgotten! WHY eon IS LOVE Now I do not care a thing about what the metaphysicians say,- whether they say GOD would not curse, or GOD would curse, or GOD is nothing but LOVE! That is why GOD is LOVE,——because He allows your antagonistic and conflicting thoughts to destroy your body from the face of the earth and cause you to be a sample and an example for others that would follow you. Your belief in Me . . . that body’s belief in Me, the belief that was in that body . . . lifted her from the gutter . . . beneath the very slums of the slums . . . beneath every- thing that has been in the under- world!

Now she is going down, down, DOWN! , . . and everything with her, and everything that CO- OPERATES with her, all of the officials and everybody else who Page 15 O0-OPERATE with her, shall go DOWN with her! GOD DECLARED IT, SAYING: “HE WHO BELIEV- ETH SHALL BE SAVED, AND HE WHO BELIEVETH NOT SHALL BE CURSED! GOD DECLARED IT! . . . I DON’T CARE WHO THEY ARE! ENDORSERS WILL BE UNDER THE CURSE BELIEF has made her whole! BELIEF made her whole and lifted her above all mankind socially, fi- nancially, morally, intellectually and every other expression necessary, by My Spirit and by My Co-operated Presence by transmission, transmit- ting every human intelligence to the individual by My Holy Temples, causing My Spirit and My Mind from an intellectual point of view, as the perfection of intelligence, to serve such a person; therefore I say, at MY NAME they must bow, and by their unbelief and antagonis- tic thinking, to the extreme reverse of that . . . the way they have been Blessed . they shall go DOWN to the lowest depths of de- gradation! This is not a supposition! It is SCIENTIFIC! . . . It is REAL! It is TRUE! And I Am here in Kingston, and I Am saying it! Everyone who ‘PARTICIPATED , . . CO-OPERATES with it . . . every- one who ENDORSES it . . . they all shall be partakers of the same curse that she ‘is under, because the MOUTH OF GOD HAS SPOKEN IT! NOT AS A PERSON BUT BY THE SPIRIT And “it is not by'POVVER, nor by MIGHT,” . . . it is not anything I am doing nor shall do as a Person -—“but it is by My SPIRIT,” says the LORD. I did not do anything Personal'ly to free her from the con- sumption and from drunkeness! I did not do anything as a Person to lift her from out of the garbage cans! I did not do anything as a Person to give her recognition among the children of men! I did not do anything as a Person to give it! . . . but by her FAITH in ME, and -by the FAITH of others, she was LIFTED! Now by her UN- BELIEF, and by the unbelief of others, she has gone down and is ., going down! Page 16 Now I need not say a Word Per- sonally, but for the benefit of oth- ers, that they might see and know definitely GOD can and GOD will allow your FAITH or your UNBE- LIEF to be a Blessing or a cursing . . . it has lo-ng since been declared: “He that believeth shall be saved, but He that believeth not shall be ” to the extreme reverse of that which is saved, which it reads, “d-a-m-n-e-d;” Now aren't you glad? (‘So glad, FATHER!’ echoed the listeners.) FORETASTE OF WHAT IS COMING So your BELIEF in ME’ has lifted you! . . . your BELIEF in ME gave you Victo-ry over immorality, gave you victory over every other de- testable and low—down characteris- tic! Your BELIEF in ME gave you victory over those things! No-w your UNBELIEF in ME will cause the reverse to result,- and it is OBLIGED to do so! It is obliged to do so, and do it quickly! Now I would not allow her mind, and those with her, the minds of them, to kill themselves at once in that accident. I would not allow it to be done, that the Work of GOD might go on, that others might get in it, as the-y have done in this County and other Coun- ties, and even in other parts of this Country and in other Countries, that those who would tolerate such a character that would rise in oppo- sition maliciously, falsely and fraud- ulently, trying to defile and defy the Living GOD and his Majesty, that they might not see the destruction of themselves together! That is why I am glad, and would not allow their minds to kill them immediate- ly! It was just -a FORETASTE of what would come and what IS com- ing! Now it does not have to come by any person or persons! We are not speaking of physical, personal ac- tions; but we are speaking of GOD ALMIGHTY!

And your BELIEF will re- sult in that which ‘,you desire, and cause the desirable result to come forth into expression! As I have said from time to time when individuals would come to- Me and say: “FATHER, will you Bless ‘this way, that way or the other’,” . . . I say from time to time: “Make your mental and spiritual contact HARMONI- OUSLY, and you will be abundant- ly Blessed.” That is all GOD IS! . . . JUST WHATSOEVER YOU BELIEVE HIM TO BE! BLESSINGS AND CURSES COME AUTOMATICALLY IF YOU BELIEVE’ ME TO BE GOD, I AM GOD FOR YOU! If you BELIEVE Me to be the ‘other fellow," I will EXPRESS that for you! That is the way those things go. So your BELIEF in ME, as though it was Me, gave you all of the ‘Blessings you have enjoyed through and by Me and by this Peace Mission Movement and by this Connection, both mental and spiritual. Whatsoever you have en- joyed, if it was only to sit at this Table tonight, your FAITH in Me, as though it was ME, gave you this privilege! Now your UNBELIEF will give yoii the extreme reverse to such, and will give you the ex- treme reverse results as you have received since you BELIEVED! Now these are facts and figures too stout to be denied! They work SCIENTIFICALLY . . . as scienti- fically as the invention of electri- city, and as practical as the Prin- ciple -of Mathematics. I need not say do this, that you might be Blessed; neither do the other, that you ,might be cursed . . . but he who believes and LIVES according to My Teach- ing by HARMONIZING with it, he or she is Blessed immediately: and /he or .5119 WI}? rbelisves 1191’; 3:951 2.

They will always be able to absorb at least the large part of wage gains in price increases.” . A headline in a labor paper reads, “Consumers Must ‘Hold ‘Down Prices” and challenges labor that “It is time that workers began to organ- ize more powerfully as consumers to stop the bosses from t.aking back in higher prices the extra cash many have given in_ higher wages.” The Blum Governme-nt in France established higher minimum wages, but now ‘it is admitted that “the whole cost of ‘the social reforms has been shoved over to the consumer with a celerity ‘that is remarkable.” In America our middleman-mono- poly distribution system operates even faster. The steel monopoly put increased prices in effect even before it issued its first pay check at increased rates. It will not be long until the increased prices of steel are reflected in increasedprices of food, clothing and shelter for steel ‘workers who will likely find that their real wages or purchasing power has not been increased. Wage increases are nullified promptly under a private-profit economic sys- tem by price increases. The Way to Control Prices Is as Consumers The problem is how can labor control prices as well as pay. His- tory offers definite answers. The Rochdale Pioneers organized first as a labor. union in order to increase their pay. Not succeeding in in- creasing their purchasing power as much as they desired, they turned to political action, and likewise shortly found that political action was not enough. They then dis- covered the practical ‘method of con- ‘ ‘trolling prices by organizing as con- sumers into Cooperatives, starting retailing and reaching into wholesaling and manufacturing. After the World War, the. farmers of America took the same general course. There was a widespread of organization as producers into marketing cooperatives. iFa:r:n- Pago 17 O ers then turned to the political gov- ernment to endeavorito secure as- sistance in raising the prices of farm products to offset industrial tariffs. But soon they added to pro- ducer and political action the organ- ization of themselves as consumers into cooperative purchasing associa- tions and have thereby lowered prices and made large savings in the commodity lines into which they have entere-d. Labor is now rapidly organizing as producers and forcing up wages. Labor is likewise increasing its poli- tical power. But labor must shortly realize, as the farmers of America did after the World War, and as the Rochdale workers did ninety years ago, that to really increase the amount of purchasing power in their pocketbooks, they must organ- ize themselves into Consumers’ Co- operatives and begin to take over the ownership of the means of dis- tribution and production, starting first. with retail businesses and ' thereby beginning to control prices. Getting Value for the Goods _ You Buy The “Monthly Survey‘ of Business” of the A. F. of L. of March 18th, 1937, sounds the challenge, “Labor is consumer as well as producer. What is given workers in wage in- creases is taken ‘away by price in- creases, preventing the lifting of liv- ing standards and the expansion of the mass market. Can private busi- ness with its thirst for profits bk: counted on to keep prices at the lowest possible level while increas- ing Wages? Experience in other countries indicates that Consumers’ Cooperation alone gives wage earn- ers a sure way of reducing prices and getting value for the goods they buy.” The President of the ‘Bank of Fin- land says that “the cooperatives control the price level.” It is also true in Sweden and other countries. There the people have demonstrated that the only way to control prices is to organize yardsticks in the form of Consumers’ Cooperative As- sociations which effectively prevent middle.-man-monopoly control of prices. Raising pay by Labor Union organization -and lowering prices ‘by Consumers’ Cooperative organization ?'has narrowed ‘the margin of profits in those countries and thus ‘in- Page 18 creased the purchasing power of agricultural and industrial Workers generally. This has taken the brakes off the wheels of industry and in- creased production to the place where unemployment is Ilargely eliminated. The workers of those countries have not fooled themselves into believing that they can depend upon the voluntary action of private-profit business in lowering prices or upon the political government to regulate. them. They have instead organized themselves into cooperatives and have proven that they can control prices by their o-wn consumer eco- nomic organizations. American Labor Leadership Challenged The time towards which. the Con- sumers" Cooperative Movement in America has been looking with high hopes is getting close. The ground- work has been -laid. Farmers in Am- erica have led the way o-n a wide scale and have shown how to suc- cessfully organize Consumers’ Co- operatives to control prices. S.tores and oil stations organized in cities have proven that industrial and of- fice workers can successfully oper- ate their own business and reduce prices by patronage dividends on their purchases. We appeal to labor not to permit the increase in pay which it is now gaining to be taken away by increased prices. We call upon labor leaders and members to organize as consumers as well as producers. The Consumers’ Cooper- ative Movement in America, which is yet more largely an organization of agricultural workers, reaches out its hand to industrial workers and says, “Come on. Join with us as consumers in organizing cooperative grocery stores, oil stations, insur- ance -associations, medical service and every other type of cooperatives, and together we will so-lve the prob- lems of unemployment and poverty and achieve a just distribution of ownership, jobs and income.” Co-op Report Available The report of the President’s Com- mission of Inquiry on Cooperative Enterprise in Europe will be avail- able for distribution in a few days. The report covers cooperatives in 10 European countries and the re- lations of cooperatives to private- gprofit business, labor and political .movements. A The “SPOKEN WORD” 4 Review of “The Gospel Ac- cording to You’.’ “EVERYONE has a gospel accord- ing to his own experience.” This is the Rev, :Sa\m S‘hoemaker’s gospel, according to his own confessional preface in “The Gospel According to You.” “If your gospel is not joyous-it is scarcely a gospel worth while,” and “It should be a gospel of facts of GOD,” says he. The author, a lusty Oxford Grouper, Pastor of Calvary Church at 21st St. and Fourth Ave. in Downtown New York, takes a vigorous psychiatric poke into the politely vile sins of the average church-goer. He says, “I am of a growing com- pany of people who believe the worl-d needs GOD more than it needs any- thing else.” His gospel states, “We. have seen the tragic failure of a world ruled by reason. What this world needs is a dictatorship of the Holy Spirit.” Quoting his book further, he writes “Now it is a strange and wonderful fact that Jesus who was so ill used of men as to be cruc‘-iﬁe-d on a cross, has always been the chief source of faith in the w~orld, that (faith has al- ways poured forth fro-m Hiem like rays from radium. He who most suf- fered also believed most.” His gos- pel is «one that cannot be reviewed without being quoted.

LIVE in this recognition, and from one imagination to another I will lead you on to PERFECTION, until you get where you are going, keep- ing before your mind's eye, I say, the object that whi-ch you have had in view, that which has been your fond- est imagination,——so long as it is an expression of unselﬁshness, of Right- eousness, of Truth and of Justice. The thing you vividly visualize, you -must materialize, if you continue to vividly visualize it with the spirit of unselfishness, and in harmony with your CREATOR of such a visualiza- tion and -of such an imagination; for the CREATOR of your imagination and the DIRECTOR of your -concen- tration will bring into outer expres- sion that which you have vividly im- agined when He has carried it through the transforming process. Your imagination and that of which you have visualized will be changed from an imagination to your con- scious conviction and realization, which was in the beginning merely an imagination and then a concentra- tion, or concentrated expression, of your conscious mentality, KEEP IN MIND THE PERFECT PICTURE We shall not be discouraged until all shall know GOD, from the least to the greatest, as said the Scripture, ——for those of you, and I MYSELF, are the FULFILLERS. Now aren’t you glad? (‘So glad, FATHER!’ re- turned the throng.) By living in this recognition you can see more infor- mation -coming; you can see the Path of the Just glowing brighter and brighter daily. You can see your- selves expressing more victory as a conqueror. You can see the mystery unfolding every hour. You can see the things that have ‘been, no longer are -in your experience, You can see new things taking place, as sai-d the Scripture : “Behold I make all -things new,” Hence, the old day has passed away . . . behold! . . . you are in a NEW day!'.- The “SPOKEN won '5 “ And I carmot str-es-s this thought too vividly:———keep before your mind's eye the PERFECT PICTURE and that object in view of what you desire to -do as that -of which you have long sought -for and that which you de- sire to see others do_ Then I say this -RIGHTEOUS GOVERNMENT Meeting should be stressed in your memory, considered and realized, no longer considered as merely some- thing vaguely to be discerned, but something to «be discerned distinctly and understood and observed as the only hope of your REDEMPTION,’ and the SALVATION of all mankind. GOD’S WAY IS PEACEFUL AND VICTORIOUS Do not think within yourself that this ‘RIGHTEOUS GOVERNMENT PLATFORM upon which we stand must be conﬁned to that which is termed the PEACE MISSION alone, but remember it must be the "meas- ure for every man and every indi- vidual and every organization, and the Government of all Civilization must stand upon this PLATFORM upon which we all stand. Aren’t you -glad? When you realize it, when you stand ﬁrm in the realization of your con- scious conviction, your conscious con- viction with such a realization will cause others to catch your convic- tion and your realization, for such is ICONTAGIOUS! Others will be seeking it. This is also according to - the Scripture: “They shall say, ‘Let us go -up to the House of GOD, that He might teach us of His Ways.’ ” Why do they desire to be taught of GOD’rS VVays? Because they can see GOD'S Way is a PEACEFUL Way! GOD'S Way is a SUCCESS- FUL Way! GOD’S Way is a PROS- PEROUS Way! . . _ and GO-D’S Way is a VICTORI-OU=S Way! That is what it is all about, and that is why they desire to go up to the House of GOD,——that He may teach them of HIS Ways! . . . that they might en- joy what you are enjoying by seeing what I do and ‘by hearing what I say, even as you do. That is what it is all about! PREDICTION S MUST BE FULFILLED The time -cometh and now is, at this recognition every knee must how! This is not a supposition!

Watches Conferences Between Britain And Jc,1pan With “Greatest Interest ’ Nanking, China, May 16 (FDP).— China is watching “with the closest interest and great anxiety” the talks now going on between Britain and Japan ontthe Far East, Dr. Wang Chung-ihui, the Chinese Foreign Min- is-ter, said in an interview yesterday! Calling efor a “new deal” designed ‘to promote Far Eastern peace and stability, Dr. Wang emphasized that any agreement or understanding con- cerning China must have her partici- pation and endorsement. He noted with satisfaction that assurances had been given both in London and Tokyo that there had been no suggestion from any source for a. revival of spheres -of influence in this country, “The present rdiﬁfifﬁculties in the Far East,” Dr. Wang said, “are en- -tirely «due to 23. disregard of China’s sovereign rights. Any new deal for the interests Olf peace, should em- phasize, on the one hand, the inviol- ability of the territorial and admin- istrative integrity of China as well as non-interference in her economic and political development, and, on the other hand, non-recognition of the so- called special interests of other pow- rs in China. The principles laid down at the Washington Conference fifteen years. ago continue to be vital today.” JERUSALEM STILL THE CITY OF ABRAHAM In spite of the march of events, Jerusalem works its oil presses as Abraham did his, Under vaulted arches in the rear of obscure shops, one hears the sound of stone grind- ing against stone, and, peeping in, dimly perceives a blindfolde-d camel or mule patiently going round and round, grinding sesame seed. The time of working the press is from midnight to noon. Two animals are used, each working in stretches of one and a half hours. They sleep be- side the press and may not leave the place for months. The workers put in a 12-hour day, and after working seven days 3. Week for months on end, generally take some weeks off 7 to recuperate.——N‘ationa1 Geographic. 5-'m=:~,s..:mr¢na..:;s:f;-a.:v§'=;.£i;:..s‘..£22»¢';:;2§é...zi:~ "2 -v ~ ; . 1‘-‘x I 1 - ..L:-Li; Page 24 FATHER D I V I N E KINGDOM EAOI DIISGIONS, EXTMSIONS AND 00N'NE('7I‘IONS UNDER FATHER'S PERSONAL JURISDICTION NEW YORK CITY, N.

By STEPHEN BLISS .- ,‘ word “Technocracy” means Rule of the Skilful, or Rule Ac- ,7” g to the Laws of Arts and i A; 7. 'll1e thing that makes the study Ln understanding of Tecthnocratcy important is that the word and principle imply a getting down bed-rock in social ;organization; substitution of scientiﬁc fact for iicial formulas. ‘For instance, the New York State -; slature passed a law some years ,3» demanding that in “multiple elling houses,” the legal term for ,V es in which a numberof fami- live, the temperature must be _pt at a, certain degree of Fahren- t—-I believe it is 60-——between the 4-: of October 15 and April 15, Now that was a legal statute, but ,’,d on a certain a-mount of sci- , 2» fact.

TIME: ABOUT NOON. In the capacity of Spiritual Ad- viser, FATHER DIVINE gave what might be considered a private per- sonal interview at the Banquet Table of Stone Ridge Mansion, permitting the group which was partaking of breakfast with Him, to also profit by the Wisdom of His Words, which are herewith published for the bene- fit of all mankind as well. All too often have the former ver- sions of men caused those who claim to be Followers of GOD, FATHER DIVINE, to act contrary to His Teachings, and for this cause He con-. tinually stresses the importance of, denying one’s preconceived ideas and opinions, that only the CHRIST Mind may rule and have control over -all one’s affairs. In this particular instance a party had entered the ‘Dining Room when the Banquet was being served. He began to tell of some recent exper- iences, which were in substance that he and some others had gone to a small town to work co-«operatively on *a.. farm, but due to the great opposition caused by the false negative publi- city concerning the Peace Mission, Movement, he had been frustrated. The thought then occurred to him to go to The Promised Land and con‘- tact a realtor there, with whom many of the Followers have transacted , business. The realtor, he explained, had just purchased a farm and of- fered to show it to the speaker, who went to see -it with some others, and one in the party had immediately taken it -over. He added that they were there on a co-operative basis, and thanked FATHER that His Mind'_ and Spirit would prevail, even though. He had not Personally taken over the property, assuring Him that He would always be welcome to have Personal Jurisdiction over it, should He wish to. ‘There had been some antagonism on the part; of a few people in the section, he continued, also due undoubtedly to the mali- cious, untrue reports -of the Move- ment. I ‘ While the speaker was talking, one- of the angels at the Table brought to FATHER’.S Personal Attention the information that this ‘party was be- ing sought by the New York City Authorities in an investigation of the death of his so-called child. It was brought out that the child had been ill, and contrary and in direct vio- lation to FATHIER’S Teaching that a physician" should be called if a pa- tient does not improve immediately, no medical care had been given her. This neglect had cast a reﬂection up- on the Peace Mission Movement and FA'IlHE‘R, Himself, as there are those who eagerly grasp at any act of a Follower, or one claiming to be a. Follower,’ to attempt to un_der.inin'e_ ten‘ " “':’.~i_~+.'f." ‘‘=;''s.*~lt.''"*.-.i,-i.é.?.t;''é,z;r;..:.tat-‘ '‘ ‘~ ‘ii/Zia“ "h -tititﬁsr-..;.‘§i3i7»':.t;;:&t;i3I: r'.=.;g. -.«..‘::,l ;,;e.~;4 i,-raj}. .,_‘,,‘.,‘,",‘;x,_,_..,,,..,, ., .. . Page 4 cm wean» the Movement and persecute FA- THER Person-ally. FATHER therefore suggested to this party that he surrender to the Authorities, if he found upon contact- ing them that they held a warrant for his arrest. Thus he would be making his Peace wi-th GOD and man, He explai-ned, and would re- move any reﬂection which had been cast upon the Movement or Himself, since neither were responsible for the occurrence Illustrating Hi-s Point, FATHER told how He, as a Sample and Example, although absolutely in- nocent of any crime, had voluntarily surrendered to the Authorities when, He learned they were seeking. Him. The Truth of the incident was re- vealed, as FATHER told what really‘ happened, and how the prejudiced newspapers deliberately wrote false news reports in a futile attempt to shake the faith of His Followers and destroy the Movement. When the speaker concluded his re- marks, FATHER questioned him as follows: ' FATHER: PEACE EVERYONE! Is everything straightened out okay, ‘Mr. Star? Mr. Star: Everything is straight- ened out, yes FATHER, as far as anything we have learned. We have no entanglements whatsoever. FATHER: You are sure of it? Mr, Star: As far as I -know . . . there has nothing come to our ears to the contrary . . . however, we left early Sunday morning. FATHER: I «bore no record of it! Mr. Star: That is when we did leave . , . before six or six-thirty. ' Some time that very morning, some of the ofﬁcial=s—I don’t know who they are or anything about them—— came to the place where we were, there at 4 We-st 115th Street, and _questioned brother ‘Brock very close- ly. He was staying there in the front room, which he has occupied, and as far as .I know he is still there. They asked him for about two hours for any information concerning us. We _did not give him any information . . , there was nobody in the city knew where we were going at all. Truth- fully he could say he bore no record of our movements at all. That is the only thing I know that is any en- tanglement. ' ' FATHER: Well, the reason 1.8‘.-Shed that was becausesomeone said they were looking for you there. Mr_ Star; That is the only thing I know, FATHER, about it at all. FATHER: And of course I did not want to know anything. . . . I do not want to do anything, or be a, party to anything, that would tend -to in- criminate any person, even an unbe- liever," especially unless they are w-orthy of punishment and should be punished . , . and so I did not get information where you were. I knew nothing about it Personally, and the message I sent to them (the investi- gators) I did no.t know anything about it Personally, which I did not, because I did not even know Per- sonally that the child was sick until just before I heard that it had hap- pened as it did. And many times such as that comes up and causes a whole lot of unneces-sary persecu- tion because of the different indi- viduals’ metaphysical theories, and they trying to carry ou-t their the- ories in the Kingdom. i I have said over and over again, if any of My true and faithful Fol- lowers get sick, for any cause, if they camiot get healed or if they cannot be healed for any cause, why they should have a physician! And I have stressed it over and over again; but many of you all claim to be follow- ing Me and try to hide behind Me as a Person, going to the extreme r,-_ verse to that of My Teaching, hold- ing -on to your former metaphysical theories and doctrines, and yet say it is Me, which is of course Me Per- sonally or Spiritually, because there are those in the metaphysical the- ories who would suffer a body to pass out rather than give it medical aid, if necessary. I have always said, if for‘ any My Spirit cannot or does not reach the comdlition of the patient immediately, they should’ have a physician, and you all know that! Miss Paul: That is what the mor- tal minds say: “Why did they go against it?” . . . because they have read what You said about getting a physician if you are sick . . . so they said, “That is contrary to what He Teaches.” And the Bible says to get a physician for the sick. FATHER: Sure! , . . a physician is for the sick . . . and if for any cause a’. person is isuffering, it is no need to feel yourself better than GOD, or ‘Better the Creative Forces of Nature that cannot reach the condi- -‘cknow, although he did wrong ‘Saturday, May 22nd, tion of the individual, and try to boost your own mortal thoughts of self- righteousness above those things, ' those Powers that Be, in opposition. I. You should try a physician, because ; it is something to cause that person 1 to remain in a suffering condition, .j you see. . " Mr. Star: Peace, FATHER! In‘ this particular ca-se, I had, of course, I no idea of going against Your Wish", es or Your Teachings, Personally,I have really never read the Messages, or the Mes-sage, in which You had . spoken of that. For some reason I , never saw it. FATHER: That is Wonderful! You have been following Me all this time, ; and you, an intelligent man, and es- , *pecially a teacher and a reader! . .. ., you should be one to know deﬁnitely, ? .-in preference to others, what I have i said in all of My Messages. I have ' «stressed it over and over again! , .. . and of course it is merely the for- ' mer metaphysical theories that you , all are trying to hold on to and say’ it is Me Personally . . . of which the 7 metaphysical theories are failures! Now, Idid not want to get you in- to any trouble, and I will not be re- sponsible for any pers—on’s or per- .i sons’ unfailthfulness to Me and to My Message, but yet I do not want to . get you into any, what the people ' call, ‘trouble,’ so if youwere gone’, when they came looking for you, (-the‘ officials) and the secretary told Me ' they had a Summons for you, andf said they wanted to see you, or Me,?‘ or words to that effect, and I said’ to the message bearer to tell these‘ ofﬁ-cials I bore no record where you were, because I did not want any rec-I" 0rd to be borne, and I did not beat, any record, you see. . . , I did not Personally know where you had gone. ’, I had not seen you Personally, and!’ did not want to bear any record be.-’ cause I am Truthful, and I do n'.. want anybody to. come and question» Me. Like now . , . suppose I would go out now and someone would com. up to Me and ask Me if I know where- you are or if I had seen you . . .nat~f urally I do not want to know any-_., thing, but naturally I do kI'1oW—~=I know you are here this morning. 1, . Like when they were claiming F? be looking for John Hunt, We,il,,,: did no't want to‘ know, and I did needed to be punished . . >. but I l 48am-«tax; May 22:14. 1.9.3.7 ,‘ not want to be a. party to the pun- ,“ ishment on My Account Personally, I‘ especially when he had: not actually injured or harmed anybody from a ~‘« personal point of view, although he did himself wrong and he wronged the Teaching of My Message it is -true! He went in eiztreme violation to it, but I did not want to know, and Idid not know! . . . I bore no rec- ord where he was, I did not see him, and so he left long before they came, and I am glad he did, because I did,‘ not want them to corme to Me and ask if he was here, there or the oth- er place, And it is the same this morning, V —I do not want anyone to come up-. and say, “Have You seen Mr. Star?” . because if I said, “No,” they would say I was harboring you, you see. And of course they said they had the Summons for you. _ . . I know what I am talking about! Aft- er they said they had the Sumn ons for you and they tried to get to see i you, they said they wanted to talk with you and all of that, then the oﬁicers of the Children's Welfare, or the officers from some Department, and the policemen, left, and said they were going to get, I think, a War- rant for you, and would get you or arrest you, -or words to that effect, » and even wanted to implicate Me, as though I had done something amiss . . and so some of those of the Child’s Welfare Department of the Peace Mi-ssion Movement agreed, un- der My Instruction, to alleviate you 1- from what we suspected may have been the cause of the Warrant. They decided or said that they woul-d take care of the remains and they went about to do it according to My In- structions, but they said after they sought to do so, they said i‘t was too late, -or something of that sort. So’ the situation remained, as far as I bear "record of it, just as it was before we attempted to -do what we could in that way , .. so I told them to tell them, (the officials) I con- ’ sidered you. all had gotten in touch 1' with the *Child’.s Welfare Department .. of the Peace Mission Movement to 5'. take charge of it before you all left. 4 Isent word to them to try to pro- Y teot you. Mr. Star: F-.A,’I‘»H,ER, we had tak- en care of that beforehand. I had 5° Itht hospital and mad-er at angements necessary. The ‘~"S..1_"."..1.$1.L?P;‘?,‘*.W93..1?"- FATHER: The thing I was getting at is that I was informed that they did not Want it to be the responsibil- ity of the city, and of course it was not Mine, nor the Peace Mission Movernent’s responsibility; but to. try to keep you out of anything, and those others who may have been con- cerned, I instructed the Welfare De- partment to take it up and tell them they would, and they were, making up a budget to take care of the re- mains, that you and others who were concerned, had turned it over to the Welfare De.par‘tment to take charge of the situation. That was the in- formation I gave them that I had received, such as I had received, and I did it for the ‘purpose of keeping, \you out of trouble, but even though I did, they claimed it hadbeen re- moved, or something of that sort, and i-t could not be removed unless it was signed for by the parents or some- thing of that sort, don’t you see? So the situation still remains, as far as I. bear record of, as it was after they said they had a Warrant for y-ou~— the two of you, S_o that is why that undesirable publicity went over the a.ir——on that account. I could not see where they had grounds to class it or assume that you had committed a felony, but according to that statement, it bore record as if though they were trying to lay some charge against you to that -extent, and that is why I -did not want to know where you were . . . because I do not wish to be a betrayer even in any way . . _ Miss Paul: FATHER, -they said that You had moved . . . FATHER: And to take My Name and say I did these things, why you -see it reminds Me of the old say- ing . , . When a person does those things it is vde-trimental to them . . it reminds me of that saying: “a person cuts off his nose to spite his face.” When you try to put Me be- fore the battle—-things you all do,- erroneously——itnste-ad of keeping "Me free and clear from such mistakes, why you are binding Me in a way whereby it would be, impossible for Me to help you, even if I would de- sire to under certain conditions . if you bind Me under the same of- fense the Defendant» es, 3 C°~d.9:- fer1,clant.— You, see? . . . that_ is th,e idea! it '13,. best for of you, all ofthe people, to try to free con Page 8 as the H'E'A'D. and the FUNDA- MENTAL and the GFlFSP-R.I«N+G of all.
