TIME: ‘.1;_3‘o, A.M. ‘ \ "When FATHER ended His MES-M - SAGE on this occasion, the hands on the face of the clock pointed to Na quarteripast two, but the spacious Dining Room was just as packed as though ‘it ,were_ a quarter past two in the early ‘Afternoon, and every individual appeared to be as ,wide- awake. and. as wide-eyed as the it usual church goers are on a Sunday Morning, when they have dressed in" their very‘ best, to fulfil their « Christian-: duties and their» Religious obligations. Many were ,-still eager _ to give_ their testimonies and con- fessions, even at this hour, because ' they desire to be free,‘ hence, they . are _anxious to rid themselves of their burdens of sin, but the Words, the; marve’1ous‘« Words, the great Magnificent and Supreme MES- SAGE that was. given, had left its ‘indelible impression in” the minds of the people, and the majority of that vast host ‘were still pondering .over the deep philosophical. Truths that had just been people by FATHER. These mysteries are precious and unobtainable only as they are released through and by GOD, and through the Condescension of Himself, as HE Condescendingly transmits HIS SPIRIT to ‘the child- ren of. men, as they bring their bodies into subjection. to HIS DI- _, viisiefwinh and PLAN, through a ,2‘ imparted to the? vticisms wholehearted consecration and sacri- fice of themselves. ~ FATHER beautifully exhorted-. the faithful Believers and 'aFollowers to continue on in FAITH, and allow _nothing to cause them‘ to become unsubstantiated in their ‘conviction, V or restrain them from obtaining their ideal. However, in reference to some of the ’musical numbers which have been given in connection with f the recent radio ‘broadcasts, coming from this Peace Mission, FATHER made known the fact that some , criticisms had been given with re- gards to the singing of songs that are copyrighted, FATHER stated HE was glad‘ that oppositions’ did arise, for then, would HIS SPIRIT » individuals come forth and present to the new inspirations, within the and produce people enmasse new songs, new revelations and new _ compositions and new poems and new prose, which would comparq,and even surpass all of the productions ‘of the mortal versions, and none‘ would have _an occasion to offer criticism, for they would not be seeking‘ honors and glories‘ for themselves, for they are firmly con- vinced all of the Honors and all of the Glory to 9}OD belong. Then when GOD is_ for us, who can be against us? Every opposition in the past, has proven always to be’ a Blessing in disguise. All of the cri- reference to the expression} of -the Spiritual development will be- help- ful and ‘ constructive, and tend’ ‘to cause the individual to move on and upward to the Mark of their High by that can come forth-with _ Page 4 ‘Calling in CHRIST JESUS———FA- THER DIVINE. ‘ ’ This MESSAGE is a glorious piece of literature, and beneficial to the entire human race," and for it, we do ‘ thank Our Great Immaculate SAVIOUR, FATHER DIVINE, for the Condescension of permitting us to read it in the Publication of the official Organ, “The Spoken Word.” b - PEACE EVERYBODY5 (“Peace FATHER DEAR!” came the joyous response of the Devotees). Everybody happy? It "is indeed wonderful! While listening at that little Song, I thought of our Radio Broadcast. Many of your numbers have been cut off because of them being songs that have been copy- righted. GOD IS ALL _ TALENTS While thinking sometime ago, all of these things ‘will move you. You have heard the old saying: “None of these things move me,” but these things shoufd move you. They should -move you on into MY Standard of thinking, and MY Standard of ac-_ tion. GOD_is Spirit. GOD is all Gifts and GOD is all Talents. GOD is all WISDOM. GOD is also all UNDER- STANDING. Becausc; of ‘this, we do not have to depend on another. Why’ should you lurk in the ideas and opinions, the compositions, the ways and doctrines of others, when MY Spirit within you is the great Com- poser? MY Spirit in you is the Great Advocator. MY Spirit in you is the Great Resurrector. MY Spirit in you is tthe Great Inspirator. MY Spirit in you will inspire you, will give you alyyou need to say,’ will give you all you need to sing, will give you all of the understanding necessary to get the issue through, therefore, when you see these seeming oppositions arise, they are for this purpose, even if it were to the extent that we would refrain to go on the air, after the manner of men. I did not reach the Twenty odd Million by going on the mechanical radio. It is indeed wonderful! INDEPENDENCE OF GOD I AM INDEPENDENT to the ra- dio commission and every other commission. GOD is INDEPEN- DENT t<> levers? mortal v<.=r.si¢>n- T119? are Iimitegt in their conceptions. but The “sEoKEN=- won " GOD is INFINITE in H_is. That is the Mystery. That is why we can stand absolutely INDEPENDENT. I have not sought" them.. They are Rseeking ME. Oh’! it is something to consider, I desire. for these things to move‘ you, but move‘ yoii Qutfln the standard of MY Expression wherein I have calledyouto be not again entangled with the theories and doctrines of men. That is what it is for. For this cause, you can rejoice and bet exceedingly glad to exhi_bit .from now, henceforth and forever GOD among men. REALITY OF INDEPENDENCE The Declaration of Independence here in the United States of Amer- ica, was but a sketch and a reflec- tion of a percent‘of alpercent of a fraction "of a grain. of a. percent of the reality of the INDEIPENDENCE that I bring. Oh! it is something to consider. These Parables, parably speaking, through the different Or- ganizations, their ‘respective revolutions and resolutions with their respective lplatforrnsf and con- ‘ stitutions, etc.', all of these, with "all of their respective discipline, are but shadows and types and figures, figuratively speaking of "the myste- ry of the INDEPENDENCE of GOD,‘ from whence they, thes"e limited "con.- ceptions and expressions have come. Oh! it is a privilege to realize GOD'S INDEPENDENCE among’ the children of men, how I-IE can bring HIS INDEPENDENCE into action b among them, so that they might en- joy, not merely the Declaration of Independence, but that they might enjoy the reality of INDEPEN- DENCE to every mortal limitation. My Spirit and MYMIND, ‘as’ Iihaiire long since declared, with or'with- out an Organization, with or with- out a radio broadcastingfsystem of our present Civilization,’GOD is ab- solutely INDEPENDENT’ with or without ,t‘!1em . . .

Going on the air, on the wings of the 0Morning, ' going asvswiftly in voice, and sound, as Light Rate Speed goes from ‘the East "to the West, atthe Dawning of" the »Morning. This is the Wing. It is indeed wonderful! Going at the rate of. -Light" Rate Speed, go- ing at the Speed of Light Rate, where the Light of the "Sun can throw its Ray at the rate of One Hundred and oEighty-Six (186,000) thousand miles a. second. You may go. on the air, through. an Interna- tional hook-up, but when you get there, I will be there. THE-‘REAL HOOK-UP The networkxof this country, is not sufficient. You may make an International hook--up, through all of the Civilized Countries, neverthe- all of' the hook—ups through the radio‘ broadcasting. sys- 'tem that this Light of Civilization-“ can produce, itlis not “to be'com- ‘ pared as a percent of a fraction of " 3, grain of the great “HOOK-UP*'in V the hearts and minds of -the children” of men. That isiwhy it" is so far-- reaching, because the INDE_PEND- ‘ ENCE of GOD, is a "LIVING real- ity,' and every limited conception- of‘ man, with all of their versions, are limited, for they are bound to ' the Material Plane, and to the lim- ited vocabularies of the children of men, but by the Spirit of GOD'S PRESENCE, through His Conde- scension, we can transmit ‘our thoughts from Planet to Planet. (It is indeed wonderful!) by the -rea.li- zation‘ of the ‘Ever PRESENCE of GOD as a Living Reality, and by the Universal thought concerning the INFINITENESS Of‘ the AL- MIGHTY and the limitation of mor- tality. Oh!-it' is something to con- :sider. Your mind can, and will tre;nsc_end gravitation, when you UNIFY yourselves. with the Uni- versal MIND SUBSTANCE, by let- ting this MIND be in you that was in CHRIST JESUS. The very MIND was “trahSn‘littible‘.' _ It‘ was ti.-"a.ns— I I rnittlble. That is why the BODY V The “SPOKEN wort1_)35— apparently transcended gravitation and ascended to the place commonly known by the Religions “HEAV- EN.” ’ I TRAN SCENDIN G GRAVITATION When you lift your mind thro-ugh raising your vibrations to‘ contact the CHRIST Consciousness, when you shall have put on the CHRIST MIND, in reality, you can, and you will be a.‘ Transcender for your bod- ies will be as “tra.nscendible," as your thoughts. JESUS explained. it in the Parable of the Ascension, parably speaking of the mystery concerning.POWER and MIND over. matter, showing you conclusively, the CHRIST MIND can transcend gravitation. The power of gravita- tion can have no dominion overéthe CHRIST CONSCIOUSNESS. Then I say, through MY Condescension to go over the radio broadcasting sys- tem, on the ‘air, as a natural per- son, think not to say within your- “I AM seeking it.” They I -AM not seeking selves, are . seeking ME. » them. ,I can and I will put MY IS- SUE, through completely once and forever, with or without a broad- casting system. }When the mortal mind tries to rule, the» Cosmic Forces of Nature, yea, the air -as it may be termed,‘ yet in this air of which they are trying t-o monopolize, the very Spir- it of MY PRESENCE will transcend the place wherein they are trying to dominate, The very Spirit of MY PRESENCE, in the name of’ the COSMIC FORCES of NATURE can, and will work in perfect har- mony with ME. The limitations of men cannot surpass, neither can they bring a barrier on the IN- FINITENESS of GOD. HIS SPIR- IT, HIS WISDOM, HIS KNOWL- EDGE and HIS LOVE are not even confined -to the Civilized world. That is the significance of GOD. If GOD were confined to the Civilized world, or confined to the Intellectual world, GOD would be bound in pris-on—-—in the prison of convention- alities, theories and doctrines of the limited mind of men. GOD could not have HIS free access, as HE could, have among them." It is in- deed wonderful! “ ' ,/ ‘undesirable conditions . . . P.a.S°.5 V LANGUAGE OF ALMIGHTY _ "When you are free, you are free indeed, the Son can, and will set you free, will free you from every barrier of conventionality, from all of the barriers of the grammatical boundaries, cause. you to revel into the Glorious Liberties of the Sons of GOD, without a language saving the Language that’ is spoken by the Aﬁll,/IIGHTY. It is something to con- sider . . . Listen what the; Spirit says to the Churches,- “He that speaketh with an unknown Tongue, -- speaketh to GOD, and "GOD alone, for GOD alone can understand the Unknown Tongue.” ~ 4 Do you not see ‘the narrowness of mortality,,a.nd an of their versions? Do you not see" them binding them- selves in limitations? As they bind ‘ themselves and M limit themselves grammatically, they are limiting . themselves mortally, therefore, through mortality _ they are bound. They‘ cannot ascend, neither trans- cend the gravitation of mortality. These thoughts are well worth‘ considering to get your REAL. EMANCIPATION, your true and real DELIVERANCE, to be free once again from the bondage of li- mitation. Will you be FREE? Just think of being bound by the‘ mortal versions of men, limited ' to their theories, to their ‘doctrines, to their versions, to their ideas and opinions, to their grammatical phrases and ‘other limited expressions, talking a- bout being one with the INFINITE. GOD is just as much in ignorance-,~‘ that which is termed ignorance by men, as HE is in that ‘which is 'termed intelligence. VICTORY BY RELAXATION , Oh! it is a privilege to realize ‘GOD in HIS Own OMNISCIENCE can, and will Condescend to descend‘ to the lowest Planes of expression, as HE did. when HE descended "to “The Other Place,” after the Cruci- . fixion, parably speaking of the Mys- tery of HIMSELF‘ getting VICTORY over limitations, over adverse and If man could have, or would have only ob- served, he could have long since- RE- LAXED himself as individuals, yea, as an individual. I‘ Each individual could have accomplished the VIC- 9 Oh! TORY over difficulties, by ING his. conscious mentality, and recognizing GOD’S PRESENCE as a LIVING REALITY without limita- tions, without barriers. By such a recognition, you would be FREE to speak and to act spontaneously, ac- cording to your own individual in- tuition. 5 C it E is something to_ consider. Think of the OMNIPOTENT! Why is‘. GOD OMNIPOTENT? It is be- ‘-cause HE is not limited. _why GOD- is OMNIPOTENT, be- ‘ cause HE is not limited. GOD would That is be limited, if HE were not OMNI- POTENT, and if GOD were limited to the different degrees of expres- sions, GOD would notand could" not be OMNIPOTENT. Who has known (the MIND of GOD that they might. set up a standard for HIM . . . The 4ALLN'!ESS of GOD and the nothing- ness of matter is a reality. The OM- NIPRESENOE of son, with this Recognition, wehave established the reality of GOD through all men, giv- ihg VICTORY from every angle. SPIRIT WILL ‘ X-RAY , * ‘ As an x-ray, we will x"-ray through‘ flesh and bones," so will the Spirit "of GOD’S PRESENCE, when this recognition transcends all limita- tions, passing through every visible -expression, and will not ‘allow, any- thing to prohibit HIM. Now ‘,isn’t it wonderful? Then I say,’ these op- positions are for the Spurpose of causing you to be moved, for the purpose of», causing you to move on andgpress on to your mark of your High Calling in GOD, which is in CHRIST JESUS. MY Spirit can, and it will con- tinue to give more and more new compositions from the very FOUNT of GO_D’s OMNISCIENCE. By you as individuals STILLING your _pre-» conceived ideasand opinions, STILL-. ING all of the pre-compositions and every other expression, the Spirit, will come forth into action when you come to your destination. _It is good that you are limited, good‘ I AM glad- that you are barred. ‘-you are——as it has been up until ,;now. MY Spirit, MY PRESENCE, MY TEXISTENCE even, coming through what you would term ordi- I nari'ly, as great trials and tribula- - ' , tions, coming through that whicll is I The “sPoKEN swoon" commonly known as oppositions, coming through‘ every seeming dif- ficulty, coming” through apparently every adversary, that the Spirit of, GOD‘S PRESENCE might be a re- ality, ‘ and express _I-IIS OM.NIP- OTENCY over every limitation. GLORY IN . _ TRIBULATION . For this cause, we can say with Paul, I “We glory in tribulations, know- ’ing that tribulation worketh pa- tience; and patience, experience; and experience, hope; and hope maketh not. ashamed.” . . For you lose yourself, your thoughts ‘of yourself in IjIIM. By so doing, the VICTORY you have won. “Man's extremity is GOD’s Op- portunity.” I have stressed it viv- idly quite often, ‘and I AM still stressing‘ it, for consideration, but you did not stop to consider the mystery of coming to your extrem- 'ity in theﬂway of singing. _ We are not in the 'diversit;ies and theories of men, although they all belongs to ME, but as the little honey bee is A to the flower, so will I be to you, and every other individual. To all who have compositions, to all ‘who have revelations, to all who have inspirations, I will get the sub- stance and ‘transpose it, and I will change the nature of it apparently, and ‘cause it to be a different ex- pression; then .I say, “DIAL in on Calv_a.ry’s Station . world DIAL in.” 1 I , — The Spirit of MY PRESENCE transcends . every limitation, going back to the FOUNT of your SAL- VATION—-—Calvary’s Station, and drawing the substance from the mystery of GOD’S PRESENCE, as it was transmitted from the ‘BODY called JESUS. ’ ' GOD WIJLL CONVINCE , e I" need not think to say, I will say just what I will to say.

New York City Headquarters where the thousands congregate daily, to hear the Blessed Words of GOD, Dui-ing_ FATHER'S Absence, the Followers were loyal and faithful in their‘ attendance and their Praises’ never ceased. Their Songs of adoration and love continued -to come forth inspiration-ally, and with ~ great reverence, rt-hey regarded and ~ respected HIS IMPERSONAL PRESENCE. Many visitors flocked to the Headquarters to See FA- THER, but on learning that HE wasout of. town, they were never- theless extremely interested to seek - information, therefore, quite a. num- ber of -them stayed “through the’ Banquet Hours, and listened to the beautiful Words of Life, from FA- 'l‘HER’S MESSAGES as they. were ‘read «to the Assembly from “The SPOKEN WORD MAGAZINE,” and also from “The New York News."

E E Professor Hume had ‘a prepared questionai-re which he used to ask FATHER certain questions, which he said he desired to get chronolog- ic-al records ,and data to pass on to his students, with reference to the origin of the PEACE MISSION, its activities and its growth. P The questions which were asked. by the Professor, and the Answers given, by FATHER ax-‘o, herewith re.- corded, as follows: ' Questions: 1., What was the; origin of this Movement? A A !What was the nearest prepa- ration which led to the launch- ingof this Peace Movement?

What co—operation has already been _ accomplished with «any other similar movements? \ What are the planks in the -i Platform as ‘inscribed on the ’ walls of the Temple? FATHER I came b0th.‘t(_) -’seek and to give information. FATHER replies: . “We are .. very glad to have ya to &participate in our Meetings, to speak or sing or "anything you de- sire, just so you are governed by your highest intuition. We are al- ways pleased to have Visitors and we desire them‘ to participate by, singing or §sp'eaking, if they would like to,‘ or have «a word to say, if they feel so led.” Professor Hume: . “I felt that YOU were very friendly indeed, FATHER.” FATHER! . i E ' ., Of course, « it is 3, li't-tle diffieu to adequately answer, many ques- tions that may be placed before ME, from—-what we may term, it to be, from a human point,‘ as M‘! WORK is spontaneous. I speak .spontaneously-—just as I did a. lit- tle while ago, and yet I AM writ- ing daily, and, I AM releasing tr. the»Press 8-.3 much as they can re-_ ‘o Mysteries . Wha't is the theology involved 1 . ceive at this Age. Many: or them. have declared I AM at least Fifty (50) years ahead of time. ' Prat‘. "Hum-e: FATHER,’ how can we catch up? FATHER: ' It is" the privilege of each and every individual to UNIFY _himself or themselves with ME, by ‘the RE- _ LAXATION of -the conscious men- tality, by becoming as a little child as said the Master, by‘ becoming as a little child, by being “converted; deny himself or th_ems_elve.~s as‘indi- viduals completely. The re—action oi_5-such will come forth, will cause the resurrection of the CHRIST within the individual, to" inspire them, and to bring them in UNITY A with ME. f See that is the mystery! JESUS said, “Has not GOD hid these things from the wise and the ’_ prudent, and revealed them to babes‘ and_ =sucklings?” It would be a. matter of impossibility for the Gos- pel to be true, if wiseivzmen, after, Aithe‘ manner of ‘men, according to the intellectual world, had .the TRUTHS, as they are, but as men, tliey are intelligent. By the RELAXATION of the conscious mentality, and all of your ego, and every mortal version com- pletely, all of the theories and doc- » trines of men, GOD will rise in you spontaneously, as I explained in MY Lecture 3. little while ago. GOD is Ever Present and is wining and ready -to re—act, but it is- not .so!m.e— thing new, as the wis_e man said . .. “There is nothing new ‘under the Sun.’’, It is merely new to those Who have not awakened to the con- isciousne-ss of TRUTH, as, it is. Prol. Hume: When did this newness come into history? What -one event would YOU~.sa.y, is outstanding? « FATHER: The one »o'utstandi‘ng Event, was when JESUS came as it PERSON. Prof. Hume: And subsequently? FATHER: ’ It has been in since. existence ever ' Proi. Hume: ’In th/is immediate Movement—— when? grhere was a time, was there not, when YOU initiated the 5’ Movement ? FATHER: A p I do not saythat there Was. Prof. Hume: I am a Professor of History. I D will have to give subsequently the ‘ Events and dates, fouowing the ex- istence of this =Movement, I will have to pass this on -‘to My stu- dents. - FATHER: _ I do not :keep dates after the manner of men. Prof. Hume: . But YOU are making History! FATHER: : . In recent years, I have Co‘_nd‘e- scended to write as a man.‘ Prol. ,Hume: Where can I find some of these records? Do YOU have Ithem com- ‘piled, FATHER DIVINE? FATHER: We are giving it out daily. Prof. Hume: _ I have -to tell my students that this Movement -started at ‘-such and such a. date, 1 ' FATHER: _ e As a Professor, you may under- stand, I just said, “the RELAXA- . TION of the consci‘ou's mentali.ty,”—— to STILL one’s self individ-ua.lly,.col- lectively, isthe main ~es‘senti,8.1. The human mind can never find, the hidden‘ things or the mysteries of GOD. That is the great thought. The average person_ has striven .to measure, GOD with the measure of Ya ‘man. ’ Proif. Hume: But we are in the limitation of "time; and ‘outstanding, events. u FATHER: According’ to life-time, you sum yourself up in lifev—-in the life of a man.’ You only -know~ yours-elves as human beings, by what you be- lieve -or what you learn. Prof. Hume: This body came i-nto existence on‘ the Twentieth Day of M-arch 1877. . What‘ is the next big event in this Peace MISSION? » .FA'i%Hi‘i:ii: '- The least we know oiirselves according to the flesh,’'. theimore we may..know of GOD. A Prof. Hume: -- Indeed it is wonderful.‘ FATHERZ , , _ The least we ‘know 4 from aged- graphical or material “or physical point of view, as I explained a. little while ago in MY Lecture,—whei1 man‘ “extre1‘he-ates”- himself, "GOD will appear. The Eternal Spirit - will teach WISDOM more / than our conscious mentality can conceive or receive. The conscious mentality cannot conceive the idea of PER- FECTION more -than 'the‘p'er’so‘n‘, of what eon ’wi11_ teach. son‘ will teach WISDOM, .. as our minds are RELAXED, but the more. we ~«kn~ow’ from ‘a h'um‘an point of view, the least We can know of GOD. Proi. Hume‘: ' Stillgwe are in‘I51istory? bore record. FATHER: It so according to I-ljistory and a‘c.'co‘r‘din‘g to the versions ‘of men, but ‘JESUS declared, “Before Abraham was, , I -AM.” Therefore, JESUS the -CHRIST a.e‘__ the FUN- DAMENTAL, could not deteriorate or lower. His Standard or thinking to lower jdo'wn.~to the measure of man, 1fei.ther would HE condesicend to ‘allow them to place HIM under JESUS their version's, because they born just after: John, .but JESUS said: “fBef'ore’AbréthamTwas, I ,AlVl." ‘ ‘ * ~ I; p John was bound by the ver“‘ons' of-men. No doubt, he dbubt'ed JE- SUS after he baptized, HIM.‘ cause he doubted "imsvs, it ‘didi;l’_t cause J E S-US, although. being younger, according to men's .versi'on, to deteriorate His Stanclard of think- ing; ‘thought vividly and sti- premely in His High Thought with the"FATI-IER- HE refused to’ lower His Standard of . «thinking. That »_is why HE was OMNIPOTENT. ,'l‘liat is why HE was GOD.

FATHER: The nearest preparation andmost _ exact, was in the Person of JESUS, and in the BODY of JESUS Nine- teen Hundred Years ago, the Ex- ample, the Perfect Picture in ‘His Day.

He said; _ A (‘FATHER DIVINE, I thank you for bringing a Righteous Govern- ment to this earth. We long needed it.” He ‘also said: _' “‘I have just witnessed a parade. by the Comrriunists with cards and , ‘ signs saying what they demanded-, but it seems to me,” he, said, “That in order to get‘ what they wanted, they should. get GOD who gives everyone what ‘they want.” A This met with a great -' applause from the audience.

Secretary Ickes Charges Race Discrimination Harold L. Ickes, Secretary of the Interior, giving an address, in Chi- cago, Feb. 26, charged that poli- ticians repaid the election services of ‘a great group of American cit- izens by permitting their economic exploitation between campaigns. He pointed out that“in many instances’’ 0 the nomination of Presidents of the United States Was accomplished by the votes "of this group, and yet they were treated as‘ a. “race” within the country rather than as Amer- i¢&.I1 citizens. He Went on to say that in the administration of public welfare and relief there should be no discrimination. ' ‘ This is particularly interesting to those who know of the letter which FATHER DIVINE addressed to Secretary Ickes on Feb. 1st, re- questing, the REPEAL of the ‘Ar- ticle in the Works Relief Prgject “-that will prohibit one from earn- ing an honest living under the Ad- ministration without seeking Relief.” This letter was printed in the Feb. 11th issue of the “Spoken Word.” Though your sins be as scarlet, they shall be white as snow; though they be red like crimson, they shall be as wool.

Hence, teachers-, preachers, teachers of Truth and those who claim to im- part the woid of Truth who re-g ceive a fee, donations, contributions, love offerrings or the like are SELL- ING THE _BODY OF GOD, ‘and do- ing so in contempt of the Heavenly Court. This ‘Light and Understand- ing of the Scripture is loosening the mortal ties from ‘men, giving you the Freedom andthe Liberty of the Sons of God, for you are in a New Day, the old has passed away, and as you live under the Law of the Spirit of Life, so will you be Blessed , Again extending the Power and Majesty of the Spirit of MY Life and the Lifeeof "MY Spirit, that is Perfectione to the little 'one',: and ' wishing that sh'e'*anC_1. éi.1l;concerned’ maybe ievén as I AM;i‘orthisV1caV¢$, ME ‘wen, tHeal:thy',’ ’Joyt_u1,\ Peaceflil‘; Lively, Loving, su‘ecesstu1,P'rospei+ou$ . and -Htppy in Spirit, Body and Mind and in every organ, inusocle, sinew, . vein and bone and even in every atom, fibre and cell of MY Bodily‘ Form. 7 Respectfully and Sincere, I AM, ‘ REV.

John 3:16. ﬁ- a '.l:lie=!fS=Pt.$K1§ri‘jWo1_tD’! , , i The I President‘ Speaks - D Brotherhood L President Roosevelt, speaking from his Hyde _Park home on ‘Sunday, February 23, in honor of T ‘o‘Bro.ther- hood Day,” planned by the Na- tional Conference of Jews and Chris- tians, made an earnest ‘plea for "genuine “neighborliness," for toler- ance and understanding among be- lievers of differing"-faiths, and for a “revival” of the spirit of religion. He said: i" .- “No greater thing could come, to our land today than a revival of _the spirit of religion———a revival that would sweep . through the homes of the nation and stir the hearts of men , and women of all faiths‘ to a. ‘reassertion of their belief in GOD and their dedication to His will for themselves and for the world. I doubt if there ‘is any probl_em—so- cial, political or economic——-that would not melt away, before the fire of such a‘ spiritual awakening. “I know of no better way to kindle. such a fire_ than through- the fellowship that an occasion like this makes possible. For Brother- hood Day, after, all, is an_ experi- ment in understanding, a venture in - neighborliness. “I like to think of our. country as one home in which the inter- ests of each member are bound up with the happiness‘ of all. We ought to know by now that the welfare of your family or mine cannot be bought at the .sacrifice of our neighbor’s family; that our well- being depends, in the long run, up- on the well-belng of our neighbors. _“The Good Neighbor ideaeasg we are trying to practice it in interna- tional‘ rel_ationships'—n‘ee‘ds tobe put into practice in“‘our community ‘re- lationships. When it is we niay discover that the road to under- standing and fellowship is also the way ‘to spiritual awakening. o _ “I should like 't0l$'ee Associations , of Good Neighbors‘ in every’ town and city and ‘in every rural com- munity or our land.

In Heaven There Is No Race When the mortal mind point out‘ to the followers of, FATHER DI- VINE that we are denying the real- ity of actual facts of the diversity of natures expressions in the hu- man kingdom in denying the exist- ence of races and colors, we say that to us these differences cannot have an existence because we no longer live in the world of nature, but in grace, thatis to say; in the Kingdom of heaven, where there is no race or color. The fact is ob- vious and cannot ‘be denied. VVho is there so prejudiced as to say thatvthey e"xpected to’ find. races and colors in heaven? Heaven is a state of consciousness, as most people will admit, and we say again that by recognizing the reincarnation of GOD, on earth. FATHER DIVINE, as the Lord of Lords and the King of Kings, we have attained that state 3 of consciousness, and conse- quently we are able to say with truth and consistency that there is but one race. Thank you FATHER, A PROPHECY Eleven years ago one who. has since passed on spoke to thousands and brought ' forth the following prayer: ' ' ‘of Master of the Great White lodge, Lord of all the religions of the world, come down again to the éworld that needs Thee/, and save the Nations whichfare crying aloud for help. Speak the word of‘ Peace, which shall make the peoples to cease from their, quarreling, ‘Speak Word of Power, which shall make the warring castes and classes know themselves as one. the Might of Thy -Love. Come in the Splendor of Thy Power. And save the world which is perishing for the lack of Thee; 0 Thou, who art the Teacher of Angels and of Men.’ _ How many of those who heard her, know that the Lord has come, and that He, Father Divine, is speaking the Word of Peace and the 'Word of Power, and the Might of vHis_.Love is making us One? 6 V‘ 4 ‘-i’ Worth, Texas, announced Come in ' Page 121 Divine “News From Fort Worth White, Sister Carrie in Fort Ross Humble and party on their visit there in the. middle.of Febru- ary that public meetings at FA- THER DIVINl ’S Peace Mission would be resumed there immediate- ly. Public ,meetings were stopped temporarily following a cowardly raid ‘on the Peace Mission by a prejudicial vandal on January 2nd. On that occasion, in the evening, after the meeting hadrclosed, a single person who apparently ob- jected to the non-segregation and the recognition of the Body of GOD entered the place, seized FATHER'S picture and the ‘chair at the head of ‘the table reserved for FATHER, tore the telephone from the wall and took the chair and picture to the Court House lawn and burned them —apparently with official acqui- escence. By the fact that only one person participated, it was an indi- cation that a personal motive was involved- He left a message that he was a member of the Triangle Club which has 2300 members. A newspaper reporter who investigated the matter and published an article about it stated there was no such a thing as the Triangle Club. For a time following the raid the followers decided to hold only house meetings and read the messages privately. Rev. Frank Norris, noted Baptist Pastor of Fort Worth speak- ing over the radio said the attack on the FATHER DIVINE Peace. Mission was cowardly and that de- cent people would not sanction such attack but should do everything pos- sible to stop it. -Serious thinkers are beginning to take FA'DHER’S work seriously. HOW ABOUT THIS? We nominate Brother John W. Hunt to be placed on the honor roll of “The Nation” for an outstanding act of public courage.

The guard, Homer ‘Tal- ley, was held at Joliet on a charge of aiding and escape. I Floss was returned »to Warden. ' Regen for punishment. He was re- captured by Lieutenant O’Hara as he left a restaurant with two other men. He was still in convictigarb. The story he told at the station ,bared new charges -of special privi- leges and graft at the Joliet prison and in the parole board. “The Pa- role Board wi-ll always listen to a man with $300 or $400,”?said Floss, "‘but Warden Regen and Governor [Homer don’-t know anything about it." .

AASTANDARD OF HONESTY . This is not all of the Platform. There are many important points or Planks in this Platform,_ but ‘time will not permit for Me at this .time to go into the full detail. I have stressed the significance of the returning of stolen goods be- cause I have lifted up the Standard for My True ’Faithful Followers, and these letters which were read are but some few sketches and re- flections of what GOD has actually, done. Not only so, but if there is MONEY lost and found, thfe finder if it happens to be one of’ My Be- lievers and -true Followers, will axl- vertise all lost and found valuables, whether it be money or other mer- chandise. - GOD has lifted up -a Standard of ‘honesty, competence _-and Truth, un- til those who are as employees, if they go on a job they -know within .themselves according to My In- struction, if they would rob their employer out of one minute’s time they are the same as he that robs a man out ‘of a thousand dollars.

Suggests Legislation that would forbid N the paying of ransom in kidnapings is .the way_ to take the profit out of. that crime and thus abolish it. ' That is the argument presented by Richard Lee Strout in an article called, “Take the Profit'O,ut of Kid- naping,” in the February Forum. ;In European countries and Can- ada the police do not standby as they do here while the family and friends of the kidnaped person get the ransom ‘money together and pay it O to the criminals. A There the family and friends are forbidden to pay ransom and .are Watched to see that they do not, Mr. Strout'dec1ares._ Consequently, there are few kidnapings in those countries. . Would Outlaw Ransom “Congress spould line up with the more civilized c.ountries,’_’ he writes, and outlaw ransom money. The writer fouhd that the reason why no such laws have been passed in .this'country is because most of the officials ‘in thg Federal and‘State _ police believe that public opinion will not permit. ‘ é But he believes public opinion is. swinging to a point» where it will not merely permit of. such legis- lationfbut insist upon it. ,3‘.

Divine: I want to take this opportunity of expressing my satisfaction with the work of Consolation Heart who has been intermittently ‘in my em-~ ploy since last year, and who has done steady work in our household this year. We find Consolation at all times an agreeable and "cooper- ative person, quiet and pleasant and peaceful in all her relationships in the household. She is clean and re- liable and honest and trustworthy in every way, and is well liked ‘ by every member of the family. She does her job well and keeps her mind on her work. i We are glad to have her with us. - Very truly, (Mrs. A. 'P.) Bertha S. Schoolman. —.'

False Standard When President Roosevelt took the American dollar off its golden pedestal on A-pril 19, 1933, he ac- ‘ stroke what many economists had advised President /Hozover to do for years. Then on June 5th, of that year, came the repudiation of the. Gold Clause in all -Government Obliga- -tions "by Congress. This was fol- lowed‘ by another bold stroke, on January 31, 1934, _ fixing the gold content, of the dollar at 59 per cent of its original value. When the President, on April 19, 1933, aban- doned the Gold ‘Standard, most of the nation believed it to be a wise policy; but when two’ months later Congress made it illegal to hold gold and gold cer,tifi«cates, then the rebellion started in earnest and in- creased after the dollar had -been devaluated in terms of gold. The Wealthy thought they were being robbed. But what Were they robbed of? L .. " Several, discontented parties took their c'om‘plaints -to the Supreme Court on the grounds that (1st) the United ‘States Government promised to redeezin its obligations in _gold, and '(2nd) that ‘the 7new dollar is worth in go-ld only 59.06 as against the old. But the Supreme Court ruled, ‘by the small majority of five to four, that (1st) the_ Administra- tion is justified in temninating the Gold Standard because ‘ th_ere« was not “enough Gold in the country any- [way to meet -all , its obligations in _g_ol—d; and (2nd). that none ‘of the , /bond‘ and. bill holders have suffered ,._‘~~_'ai1_y ;5.-loss ‘in real Values, for the Tloonds; are”s,ti1«l as good as they wer ' dwlien’, they Were, issued, and kdreuvi . 5(~Coritinl;ihd:,.oil¥‘..pa;ge’ 10.) i , hungry individual around “Joy to the World, the Lord Is Come, Let Earth ‘ i 9 Receive ‘Her King” ' a 7 Such Was and Is the‘ Feeling and Expression in the Visible Kingdom When FATHER DIVINE Comes in Person to} Bless His_ Faithful Followers With His Messages FOUR FATHER’S MESSAGE‘ AT THE BANQUET TABLE, 20 WEST, 115TH STREET, NEW YORK CITY, TUESDAY AFTER- NOON,’ MARCH “17, 1936—A.D.F.. 'D. TIME: 2:40 P. M. There was a great multitude of people congregated in the =Dining Hall, anxiously waiting for the Per- sonal, BODY of the LORD, who had - been away_out of the City, the day before, attending to business, affect- ing the masses of the peoples The beautiful‘Songs ‘inspirationally sung, made melody in our hearts, and everyone appeared exceptionally hap- py because the LORD was “Present PERSONALLY as well as Spiritual- ly. At this -particular time, they »were’ loving‘ HIM lwithiall, of the Love that HE had placed in. their hearts, hoping that it would be suffi- ' cient to DRAW HIM down from His Office to’ the Dining Hall, where they united in" one big Holy Band of ‘con- centrated love. i‘ " The hour finally 'arrived,. and all- of, the singing ,testifyi_n‘g, etc., im- mediately was transferred to ,a great roar af applause. ‘The Holy PRES- ENCE of GOD, the LOVER of their Souls had entered the Dining Hall, and such rejoicing as is only mani- fested by the Angels of Heaven, was expressed. The Banquet proceeded, until every the. Ban- quet table was fully satisfied mat- ' .erial‘1y, but there was an expression of hunger for the Spiritual food, the beautiful Words of Life from GOD Personally. Just to hear the Voice ' alone, would bring satisfaction. and comfort to the grea-ttltrong, for it is an adorable Voice, a Voice -that is music. to’. our ear, 2. Voice that charms our; fears, a Voice that soothes our hearts and ‘bids our sor- rows cease. It was this Voice, the Voice of GOD that the .multitude_ ’ craved to hear.’ They longed for this Voice that brought forth -mysteries and revelations with ‘each utterance. The great Message that was released at this Banquet occasion, was pro- found, and especially helpful, for it treated the subject of “The energy possessed by any individual.” FATHER explaiizled that every _in-’ dividual has so much overplus ener- gy, and in some way that energy must be utilized. If it ‘is not util- ized constructively and ‘instructively, it will be utilized and expressed de- 1 structively, and often times with great regrets. Hence, the mystery came fortll, by the consumption of the ‘energy ina positive direction, through Praising GOD, through the emotions of singing, shouting, danc- ing, etc., transformed into the desirable, and the overplus energy will be an ex- pression of enjoyment, for the ’exhi- -‘ bition »therefrom_vv,il1 be Praises unto the HOLY NAME ‘of FATHER DI- ' VINE. . g _ . Continuing -.the Songs of Love and Devotion, the » following -Song which _is herewith recorded was repeated _ over and over again withgreat ‘Spir- , ‘I the undesirable" will be, Page 4. itual pathos just prior to the . Mes- sage. This is an ' especially important MESSAGE, constructive, instructive I and inspiring, for all, that the ener- gy which might be destructively used, and which has been heretofore destructively used, might no longer be thus expressed, but through the conversion of the individual,» and throughby positive concentration, the consumption ‘of the energy twill’ not be wasteful, but burned by the Spirit of GOD, in edifying and magnifying HIS IMMACULATE NAME. Read the MESSAGE and consider the wis- dom hereof, if you so desire. THANK YOU FATHER. - \ ' “FATHER I love'YOU, O-h, I love YOU, ' I will praise‘ YOUR HOLY NAME,‘ FATHER I love YOU," FATHER I love YOU, I" will praise YOUR HOLY NAME. FATHER I love YOU, FATHER I love YOU, ‘ V ‘ I will praise YOUR HOLY NAME, FATHER I love YOU, I will Praise YOUR HOLY NAME.” PEACE, EVERYONE: , (“Peace FATHER Dear,” greeted the great Throng.) It is indeed won- derful! I rise at this juncture to say I rejoice to know I can burn up some of your energy of MY Own ac- - cord, without you using it destruc- tively, for. the purpose of destroying lives and other undesirable expres- sions . . . "It is a, privilege _to -know as much energy as a person has with- in himself, unless he could and would direct his energy constructively, his energy and ‘emotionslwould be direct- ed in a, destructive expression, but the privilege you have_ here; is to bring out the expressions of your emotions and consume your energy, at apparently MY Expense, at the expense of those who are concerned, yet indirectly it is Mine. ENERGY USED K CONSTRUCTIVELY By so doing, those of you who have been emotional, and A are now expressing your identical "emotions in . a. different direction through your en.- thusiasm of songs and praises, you can plainly see you are not using ' your emotions- destructively as you have used them heretofore. You have not.‘ consumed) your energy in a way of destruction,‘ saving at the The “SPOKEN worm” expense of those. who are concerned and who are interested in it, there- fore, if we can bring you here where the Spirit will give you access to move according to’ your own volun- teer~ volition and ' be. governed by your highest intuition in the way of ‘energy and emotional -burning, it is a privilege to do it, to consume your energy: as an automobile, when it is running at high speed. If your meter is working and over-charging your battery at times, you will turn on your lights, even in the day time toconsume some part of the energy that the high-powered motor is creat- ing in its daily operation. This is a Mystery, but yet it,is true. It is scientific in the Spiritual Realm of expression, as scientific as it is in the great .World of Invention. GOD in the midst of you, filling you and thrilling you with such enthu- siasm, with ‘such emotion as you are - putting forth into expression, may understandthe Mystery, even though you do not understand it . . .s It is better for your emotions and your energy to be consumed in and at_ a place where there is no c,ondenrm- ation, so long as it is consumed mod- estly, harmoniously and in an Evan- gelical way of expression. .You can rejoice because you can find a place where you can be moved *-by your own volunteer volition without criti- cism or condemnation. tr GOD’S THOUGHTS ABOVE YOURTHOUGHTS If you do not have an outlet for - your emotions, they may break out in a ‘destructive and in an undesir- able direction, but because of MY Personal PRESENCE through MY Condescension, I have made the way possible for each and every. individ- ual to expressfhis emotions and con- sume his overplus energy in the POSITIVE direction of Praising GOD . in the emotions of singing, shouting and dancing. -Some may wonder why is it, GOD allows it to thunder. Some may say,’ “Why the thunder pro- fiteth nothing, the Lightning" may amount to a’ little something,” ‘but who knows the Ways of GOD! “As high as" the Heaven is above the earth, so high are GOD’S Ways above your ways and GOD'S Thoughts, above your thoughts.” These thoughts are well worth con- sidering, for- the sake of argument and for criticism‘ sake, I stress it vi- Saturday, March, 21st, 1936' vidlyf that you‘ might observe it and , be willing. If you do not have emo.-" tions and energy to consume’ in some direction, I place it in this way, that you might not be a‘ criticizer of the emotions and expressions, even though they may apparently be! ex- pressions of fanticism. When the wind blows, when the dust arises in some parts of this Country, We have great dust storms. ‘For wha-t pur- pose cometh such expressions, al- though they come into expression by the Hand of Nature and by the Cos-_ ‘ mic Forces of Nature; " why should they come forth into expression when they profit nothing apparently? Why ’should we have flood-tides at times? Why should we have volcanoes? Why should we have an eclipse of the Sun and the Moon? Why should we have meteors fallingfrom/the Ether‘? “What profit is it,” one may say, but there is a DIVINE MIND, there is. a DIVINE INTELLIGENCE, there is a PRINCIPLE in back of all of it, which understands and knows all things. ' . v ‘If these emotions," this Afternoon were merely for the purpose of arous- ing your consideration, to cause MY‘ Spirit and MY Zeal to be aroused, to give you this _MES»SAGE, it would be worth considering, for this MES- SAGE of which I AM now so freely giving, will ‘go to, millions. . Oh! it is something to consider I recall saying many years ago, the majority of the Ministers would not ’ preach a sermon unless they knew they could get a hundred or apfew hundred dollars,’ but to the extreme reverse I AM willing to preach a sermon any time, and pay a few Hundred,Dollars for it to go to the millions the Universe over . . . These seeming destructive expressions and emotions may apparently. cost those who are in charge here, a few pen- nies, yea,’ a few dollars, by the seem- ing destructionrof small items, nev- rertheless,‘ the Blessings that are com- ing forth through and by the Spirit that has been aroused by these emotions,’ is worth more than all of the money it maycost to replace the ‘seeming destroyed articles. Now isn’t' that wonderful? (“T‘ru1y_ wonder- ful!” came the response of the ‘peo- ple.) ' ExrREssIoNs on eons ’ I INFINITE POWER .j GOD in t1‘1e,ﬁmidst of is Mighty Saturday,'March:2”1st,1986 to save. The Spirit of His PRES- ENCE has beenfrom the beginning.’ It is the same today.- When ‘expres- sions of GOD’S Creation appear to be destructive, you do not ordinarily question them, but the Creative Forces of Nature and the Cosmic Forces of Nature, all of these are expressions. of GOD'S INFINITE POWER. They may be -put forth in- to expression automatically, at times. At times, they may apparently be in opposition one against the other, nev- - ertheless, they are working for some- thing, as they work out the purpose for which GOD has called them -into expression. minded, if it is necessary for you to know it, GOD » may inspire you with wisdom and understanding, by inter- ‘pretation as to what was the cause’ and for what it was expressed. ‘Now you may_ ask the question, “For what cause does the -Sun go in the eclipse at times.” Science may have studied. They may bring out some versions of-"theirs as to why it happens, never-the—less, -it happens, yet they may not know definitely for. what purpose it has happened, but they may try to draw out through information given by the Spirit, through the "Spirit of Science and Invention, they may have looked through the great Telescope, etc., and discerned things and times and sea- sons wherein the eclipse would come forth into expression, but neverthe- less they may not know definitely why is it, or what profit is it by the eclipse of the Sun or an eclipse of the Moon. ' EMOTION S MUST ,- I COME FORTH ; - These thoughts should -be consider- ed before we endeavor to criticize the expressions of the emotionsof 'GOD’S Children, though it may; sound and seem peculiar or foolish or fanatic at times, but the Spirit of GOD’S PRESENCE, with all of His Under- standing knows why these things are. Oh! it is a privilege to realize GOD in the midst of you is mighty to save. With your many electrones of Electricity in your system, when you cease to destroy‘ your energy and consume it in a‘ destructive direction, your» physical bodies may be’ quick- ened.=by concentration on the QUICK- ENER. These; emotions must come forth in -some direction. You can- not keep them» b_ack.j._ You cannot If you are Spiritua1—- The “SPOKEN womb» hold -them, hence, if your emotions are not directed in some «direction, your very emotions may\ over-power you and express destructively and immodestly, in a way of degradation, suclias you had. not heard of before, you ceased to express -your emotions and your energy in this direction. Your conscious mentality has been harnessed, your conscious and sub- conscious or uncon-scious emotions, although they may be lying dormant, they have been harnessed, hence when your bodies are brought into sub- jection, your bodies presented as a Living Sacrifice wholly, the “awaken- ed consciousness will also quicken your mortal bodies by the Spirit of GOD within you. When this is quick- ened within you, and your mortal bodies are quickened, unlessyou di- rect your emotions in the POSITIVE direction, they will be directed in the negative. You -must have an outlet for your emotions, therefore, putting into practice practical service, put- ting into servicewpractical physical exercises, is the great essential. That is why‘ I stress the significance of practical service for physical exer- cises, that your physical exercises might not only be for the purpose of developing and increasing your phys- ical ability, ‘-but that they might be instructive for others. By this we lift up a standard whereby mankind . in the future, will endeavor’ to use their energy and their emotions in the way of practical service that they I uconstructivein your actions and also . might "become to be profitable and constructive instead of being unpro- fitable and destructive. USE PHYSICAL EXERCISES CONSTRUCTIVELY I have known men and women who would desire to take physical exercises, daily——take strenuous phys- ical exercises for nothing, but for theipurpose of staying supple. Phys- ical exercises may be good, but why not use your physical exercises con- -structively as well as for the mere purpose of‘ developing your muscles?- These emotions and expressions are apparently unprofitable, but since they are sponsored by -the Spirit of MY_PRESENCE, I will quicken them and inspire them with Wisdom and Understanding, whereby they will -be inspired, even through these emotions to use their emotions and their phy- sical ability in a constructive way. I which I AM now speaking Page 5 Oh! it is something to consider——— not only construction work will go "on among you, but you will become to be inspired with Understanding. You will become to be inspired with zeal and courage through your Spiritual. emotion and awakened consciousness, I ionly you will use every ounce of en- ergy in‘ constructive and instructive direction where you have been using your energy wastefully. I need not say more from this angle at this juncture, for I believe I'have said enough to stir up your pure mind. I believe I have said enough to lay the spirits of opposi- tion, such as may be termed in those who believed in ghosts——a.s the spirit of ghosts, in other words, as ghosts. I have laid. .that Spirit that might be in opposition as a critic standing _. for criticism. I have laid those spirits of evil thinking and.,of nega- tive thinking concerning the mystery and concerning -these emotions of . ;\ . I thank you . . ' A Peace Everyone: . (“PEACE FATHER DEAR!” re- turned’ the eager Listeners.) While sitting a little while ago, I thought of an experience in Sayville, when oppositions arose ‘at one time. There came an official saying to Me, he would close up MY Place. I said to this official, “And I will close up Suffolk County.” It is indeed won- derful! Little did he think it was possible, but almost immediately after they rose in opposition, ‘when. I found out definitely, they were in opposition to the FUNDAMENTAL, I withdrew -MY SUCCESS and MY PROSPERITY and I closed up Suf- folk, County and especially Sayville -from all SUCCESS and from all PROSPERITY, as a visible expres- sion, not only as a sketch and as a reflection, but as a visible expres- sion of the Mystery discerned, there- fore, the visible stores were . closed, practically all of them were closed in Sayville,—such a depression as had not been since Sayville was estab- lished. This is not merely what may be termed a threat, and yet it may be -termed a threat, yet the Bible does make threats apparently. It says plainly, " o 0 .‘-_ and your emotions . “He that believeth shall be savecl, , " may be _ ,written: “He entered in and the door l /‘ The “SPOKEN WORD” \ -Page 6 but he that believeth not shall be V——to the extreme reverseto that which is Blessed.” M Therefore, the Bible apparently makes threats‘. This may be appar- ently a.| threat maker, as the AU- THOR and FINISHER of the Script- ure." Every "opposition and everyone who rises in o.ppositionexpres‘singly or unexpressingly,‘ shall —find them- ~ selves defeated. The things they de- sire to come to ME shall come to them, heaped up and shaken down Well, and running over; therefore the same shall. be measured to those who desire to measure the ‘negative or the undesirable FUNDAMENTAL. REJOICING IN expression to this OPPOSITION ' Oh! it is something to consider- _ I rejoice because ' there are ‘those who rise in oppositionthat GOD might express ‘HIS PERFECTION, HIS SUPREMACY and STAND in" His Own Integrity. If every thing was in harmony with ME, _if all of -the children of men, with their respective Organizations were in perfect har- mony, I could not express the SU- PREMACY of GOD, for they. would be receiving the ‘honor’ as those who were helpers, but when they try to close every door and rise in opposi- tion, this is MY MISSION, there and I then for ME to proceed in MY En- deavors and accomplish whatsoever MY MISSION, for it is was shut.” It is indeed wonderful! I AM rejoicing because‘ the door is closed, for I can open doors that no man can shut, and I can close doors ‘that no ‘Vman can open. 'It,is' indeed wonderful! ? Upon this Foundation if you stand, you/will be substantiated, unshaken—none can hurt nor harm, if you stand in this recognition, and under this Everlasting ARM. . Oh! it is a privilege Dear Ones, to realize GOD,is with you, even.though all earth oppose. When all doors are appyar-ently closed, you ‘can rejoice because you know you are with GOD; The time cometh and is‘ now at hand, iwhen those who are in opposition, and not in harmony with; this PRIN- CIPLE, they will find themselves in lacks and wants; They will find them-. ‘selves limited. Those of the true Be- lievers will find their numbers in- ereasingﬂ After awhile GOD will I "open the Se.cret——the Mystery :'moi‘e vi .}‘. ‘shamed. explicit, and all will beable to see it just as it is.- “GOD in one man is the majority.” They will see as they oppose this; millions will run into it and find themselves hidrin and under , . this MIGHTY NAME, forthe NAME of GOD: is a strong TOWER. As they hide in and under this NAME, of IT they will not be ashamed, for Paul didpdeclare not only for himself as’ an individual, .but for every other individual, who would think along the line of RIGHTEOUSNESS, TRUTH and JUSTICE: “I am not ashamed of the Gospel of CHRIST, for it is the Power of GOD unto Salvation, to every one that believeth.” ‘ N0 MAN CAN SHAME YOU - A. A" .. We are privileged to believe and ’ we are privileged to not to.’ be a- No man can shame you." Did you get the-exact quotation: _ “I am not ashamed.” No man has shamed ME. It' did not say from ' MY Immediate quotation: “I AM not 'ashame,” but “I AM not ashamed.” “No ‘man has shamed ' ME.” ‘ {No man can shame ME of the Gospel of Christ, for it is,.t-he Power of GOD. Then in this MIGHTY NAME you may hide, so long as you‘ "live Evangelically whole-heartedly, and endeavor -to live according A to that which is JUST and RIGHT and TRUE ‘for mankind and for you. I thank -you'.”_ ' WOMAN’S PLEA AGAINST WAR DISRUPTS HOU-SE ‘ London, March 13.—-—A woman dis- rupted the proceedings in the House of Commons today by shouting from the public A gallery, “We appeal to‘ womanhood to stop war, war, war!” As she spoke, she tossed bundles of papers over the gallery railing into the chamber.’ ’ . The woman, whose identity was not learned, was promptly seized by attendants. As they dragged her, from the gallery, she shouted: “Yes, I’ll go out. I“ will appeal to the King. You are worse than ostriches; you’ve got no sense.’ ’ , ' 7 “ The House resumed its dry debate on conditions of women emp_l‘oyedx in offices. _ In additionto ‘the _papers, the in- terrupter, I I threw a bottle of smelling salts A Associate ~ Word/’v M Mr. Pullen, who __—so‘ ‘ gra- ciously} outlined a young.

Page The Webbs’ "Great Book » ’ ' About Russia ‘ “Our owneconclusion is that, if by autocracy or dictatorship is meant government without prior discussion and debate, either by public opinion or in private session, the govern- ment of the U.S.S.R. (United Social- ist Soviet Republics) is, in that ‘sense, actually less of an autocracy or a dictatorship than many a parlia- men-tary Cabinet.” A ' That’s just one of the illuminating and rectifying statements to be found in the massive, two-volume work on Soviet Russia produced by‘ Sidney and Beatrice Webb, famous and highly esteemed Socialist Eng- lish authors. They, along with the ire.-scible George Bernard -Shaw, H. G. wens and other ‘distinguished members of Britain’s literarygand intellectual aristocracy, formed years ' ago the Fabian Society, whose mem- bers have had a powerful. influence in turning public‘ opinion towards a favorable view of a cooperative But many British unionists, Labor Socialists, -trade Party workers and others identified“ with British Labor, have looked askance at Russian ‘Communism and have, in turn, been viewed to some extent coldly and suspiciously by the Soviets and their adherents. But now, at the thres-hold——or far past the thresho1d~.of what is com- monly considered "‘old age,’ ’these two stalwart British Fabians set to work to master the facts about So- ‘ viet Russia and, ‘extending their skil- ful work over_an expanse of 1,174- brilliant pages produce a work; of which George ‘Soule, one of the edit- ors of the New Republic and him- self a most painstaking analyst of industrial and political problems, declares, “The job has been done once and for all; future Work in the same‘ temper will be ‘required only because of the rapid" development and changes in Russia. Even so, any future book must take this as a basing point.” And “Within its 1,174 ' pages every important‘ question, a- I bout the Soviet Union receives an_ answer.” ‘The refreshing thing about this work is the emphasis and repetition of the alluring Words “New”. and _f‘Newness.” Its title in. “Soviet Com- ,\putes The’ “SPOKEN wonn” munism:' a New Civilization?” Mr. Soule writes,‘ “Words like democracy and dictatorship,don’t quite'apply to the situation. After all, this is a new civilization. The Webbs’ final sug- gestion is that here is a “creedocra- cy” of a new kind, inspiring a “mul- tiform democracy'.” _ An interesting ‘insight into the balance of organized sections of this industrialized society is given in the description of the factory “tri- angle” which ‘settles disputes in. in- dividual plants. Mr. Soule writes, “Workers in individual factories can.- ‘ not interfere directly with‘ manage- ment, but they can protest, and dis- are settled by the factory “triangle,” consisting of one repre- sentative of management, one of the union and one of the - Communist, Party." Further refuting the charge of -los-s of individual and group free- dom in Soviet Russia, the Webbs write, “No trade union movement in any other country has so inclusive a membership, so much power and so much responsibility . . . Workers are free to follow any occupation they choose, oreto take any job for which they re qualified——more free than in most countries, because of the shortage of labor. The ,unions do everything in their power to in- crease productivity, workers benefit; ther-e is no danger of unemployment.” The government is “pyramided on local soviets.” These local soviets are thus the basis of the political system. Then, as producers, the workers are organized in trade unions, selfgoverning workshops, collective and state farms, etc. And as consumers \the populac.e 1S or- ganized in the government distributing organiza- tions, supply agencies and other in- stitutions." ’ The Soviet system is “amazingly rich and complex in opportunity for all kinds of enterprise and individ- uality”. “The Webbs show -the ex- traordinary place that science occu- pies ‘in the Soviet system—which is literally“ built upon science and en- courages research as ‘ no other na- tion does.’f, Singularly impressive are the two closing paragraphs of Mr. review: _ - _ “Finally, because the , “cooperatives, the ' ‘Soule’s _, Sidney: ~ and Beatrice , Saturday,‘ March, 21st,‘;1936 Webb conclude that the-Soviet sys- tem is not -merely a new govern- ment or a new economic order, but a new‘ civilization, a synthesis that can properly be considered a new way of living, distinct from that pursued by other civilized societies. They believe thatiit will endure and expect it to spread—But how, when, where, with what modifications, and whether through violent’ revolution or by peaceful penetration, or even conscious imitations, are questions we cannot answer. _ , “In a touchingcpreface, the authors raise the question.’ Why did two aged mortals, both nearing their ninth decade, undertake a work of such magnitude? They were retired and .-secure, both in reputation and in provision for theirdeclining years. They answer mod~e‘stly, ‘We had a world to gain—a new subject to in- e A vestigate; a fresh circle of ac- quaintances with whom to discuss entirely new i topics, and -above all a dailyjoint occupation, in intimate companionship, to interest, amuse and even exite use in the last stage of life’s journey.’ The reviewer must in justice add that it was an ar-V duous and gallant endeavor, carried through with high. honor. Sidney and Beatrice Webb put to. shame millions of those who, though de- cades their, juniors, have already be- come‘ fixed, careless, disconsolate or senile in their attitude toward life.” Tune: Old,jF__aithful Pal of Mine. 011!

The state- ment “unword1y babble,” which re- ferred to an interview between Pro- fessor I-Iiumeof the Union Theologi- cal Seminary and Father Divine is rather difficult to understand and rather presumptious on the part of ' writer, who attempts to ' pene-‘ the trate beyond the confines of mortal existence and that which is unworldly and yet has not the simple discern- ment of the world -to» recognize that which the so called “simple minded” have been able to comprehend. In the interview with Professor Hume Father Divine gave the key to a. true understanding of GOD,4 Man and Life by the declaration: -‘fthe .

We /feel satisfied that if “Time” would ‘poll its readers to ascertain‘ what good they ;received from the reading of that part ofthe interview of Father Divine and Prof. Hume that Time -graciously reprinted from the. “Spoken Word” they might be astounded at the grasp “their readers have to understand and appreciate. what they have entitled “Babble.” ' In the answers of Father Divine to Professor Hume are ‘germs of wis- dom and understanding , that man- kind has never had before since the’. foundation of the earth.

THE BANQUET TABLE sToNE RIDGE EXTENSION STONE RIDGE, N. Y., SATUR- -DAY AFTERNOON: MARCH 14, 1936, A.D.F.D. TIME: 4:15 P.M. How different is the true concept of HEAVEN and Heavenly_ things, and the reality of “the HOPE be- yond,” as preached all through the Christian Era. than the -mortal ver- - sions of men pictured them to be. There were many versions and many different opinions concerning the KINGDOM of GO, and the Com- ing of It thereof. Some believed it was a place somewhere obscured beyond the skies, V others thought it was on some’ other Planet, some even had conceived the idea that it ‘ was a great Mystical Realm, in- visibly discerned by an Invisible God and Invisible Angels, and yet all generations have been making preparation to die to~ reach this beautiful Dreamland of Heaven, as taught, ‘ pictured and described -by the great Spiritual Leaders of ..all Civilizations. The most advanced scientific student had not been able ' to solve this ‘Ageless and Eternal Problem, »~with its. apparent compli- cations and intricaciesawhich is fa- thomless by the mentality of man and mortals, and Generations have passed and gone, and Civilizations have been established and waned, and men have marched on ceaseless- ly through each Generation and Ci- vilization, , from the cradle to the grave, seeking to find the «KING.- DOM of GOD, all but in vain. Men have wandered so far“from GOD that they separated themselves from I-IIM,,to the very greatest ex- tent. They placed themselves in the extreme opposite to their CREAT- OR, putting HIM just as far Away from them, as‘ they possibly could. They placed HIM in the very remot- est part q where neither sl~:i,ll,l Science n_o_1j In-' venrtien could ever reach ..I-II-M or » focus‘ the ~ pilaceiior location which -say, REJOICED to SAVIOUR again after having en-A of the Ethereal Region," .its second ‘days’ The “SPOKEN worm» a Pearl of Great Price Bodily Form they termed tobe Heaven, and they remained on the darkest Planet in the whple Creation. Now how could they find GOD, when GOD is a GOD at hand? ‘ ;Had GOD not come Condescend— — ingly to this Earth Plane, no flesh would have been saved, for men have been steeped in false and er- roneous I true existence of GOD, and they be- lieved false doctrines, that only GOD, and GOD alone in a BODILY FORM, could undo and erase’ the incarnatedi evil of wrong and er- roneous teachings for countless numbers of generations. ‘ ' That DA.~Y has come, the DAY of the LORD, the never-ending SAB- BATH DAY, where congregations ne'er break up and SA-BBATHS have no end. ‘We are living in. it, in the PRESENCE of.OUR LORD and KING FATHER DIVINE. It was designated as Friday by the World of Civilization, but it was just the continuity of SABBATH to us, when FATHER loaded up His cars with Angels to return to the PROMISED LAND, where HE had. previously been earlier in the week. The Angels there, it is needless to behold their joyed His iHo_ly PRESENCE just two days prior. The good things in the line of ‘groceries, meats, vege- tables, et cetera,‘ which , the LORD - never fails to‘ provide for His child- ren were quickly placed in the Larder, and by the _ time that we could freshen up and get adjusted, the Banquet in the sweet little Din- I ing Room was served by FATHER'S Precious Hands. At the conclusion of the Banquet, we all felt like go-‘ ing to Dreamland} to dream in that subconscious state, about our one and only TRUE LOVE. , "On the morrow early, which was termed the sixth day -ofvthe week, FATHER and the Angels boarded the cars, including a new Chevrolet Static Wagon,f which was Inaking trip, and« to_ the teachings vi concerning the R ‘ us.” Y. ‘‘He that suffers with ME, shall as I AM now. - v. ,’z ~ Message or FATHER DIVINE at Stone Ridge, N.

If you could lookback at these past ex- periences, if you: could only see them and know them,‘ the considera- -tion could be in accord with the TEACHING of the WORD and the‘ TRUTH through Paul, when he said, ..‘‘The sufferings of i this present time, are not to, be ,,c0-mipared qwitxh the Glory’ ,W1'1j(;'h shall be revealed in reign I with ME."

We knew where we were going or wh-ere we were driving, and a thought ca,me~—iet was kind of rainy, . . . it came to some of ‘them that~‘we had so far to go, something of that sort, and I recalled a Com- position that I brought forth for‘ consideration when we were travel- ing without a penny, yet fully DE- PENDING on MY ‘SPIRIT as the INFINTE, iwithout_ any place of ‘shelter, yet recognizing’ the sky -as our shelter and the ground as our bed, realizing ,GOD was the AUTHOR and the _ FINI-SHER of ‘all things, HE could and would make,you just as comfortable and happy with the Spirit of -the PRESENCE of GOD,‘ by living according to same, as if though you would be on a fine feather bed.

The time comes in_ every indi- vidual’s life, especially those of you ‘who have been Called to this TRUTH, for you to make a sacrifice to GOD whole-heartedly, or deny GOD whichever. Now— isn’t that something to consider, but when you make a ‘complete surrender, you enter into your rightful inheritance, A as I was saying a little while ago —-—thereiare some in connection with ME, whompyou would not know that ' _they were connected, or had been connected with anyone who is in connection with ME directly, but A they are abundantly‘ blessed, every- I one who has made a complete sur- render, a complete self-denial and a wide open consecration and sacri- fice. , ' “He that forsaketh all for CHRIST has an access into the ALLNESS of GOD, but he that will draw back, MY SOUL has no pleasure in him.” A surrender is the great essential, and'.the time comethand now is, those whb are not willing. to make a complete surrender, -they will be at a place where I cannot _meet them. harmoniously", for as I LIFT_ the Vibrations, or‘ I raise them higher, and the atmosphere goes up higher ‘ with it, with -the Vibrations, with the consecration, with the sacrifices the faithful are making, when this is accomplished, you will see -there will be some no doubt, living where the Spirit cannot reach them in’ -the time of' need, apparently, because , they -have ._ denied the FUNDA- MENTAL instead of denying them- selves. They have denied the FUN- -DAMENTAL, when the request was, “If you hear of any man asking" or inquiring after ME, ..tell him I said, FIRST DENY himself.” A SELF-DENIAL was, and it still is the great HOPE _of REDEMPTION but’ when one loses his identity completely in the INFINITE, then and there, his time which he has spent in misery, seeking the Blessing, he could glory in -them as past tribulations, for the hope of -the future of ETERNAL .

You /may cease to struggle; you_ may cease to fret and ‘cease to worry, but be always open-minded and willing and ready. . . . By being willing and ready to serve GOD wholeheartedly, physically, mentally and Spiri-tually, your _willingness and readiness will make you worthy, and your worthiness will give you the permission to ‘enter. It is indeed wonderful, but remember you can not find your worthinessto express itself effectively unless you can and . will sacrifice your life and surrender yourself whole-heartedly, but the time comes in life, when a person must be willing to surrender. It is a. common phrase often used: I “Here LORD, I give myself away, It is all that I can do.” _ TRUST GOD AND HE WILL TRUST YOU It. is a common phrase quite often used, “Not my Will but Thy Will be done, oh! LORD,” but whether it is actually meant or said sincerely, or through sincerity, when the av- erage person speaks it, it is for thein to know it and for others to see it, as they ‘put it forth into ex- pression, by their actions, but" as you live in this Recognition, if a person is willing and ready to trust GOD, GOD can trust him, but if you cannot trust GOD, how can you expect for -GOD to trust you? You s_ay “GOD is GOOD! HE is GOOD. HE, is GOOD!‘ If HE had not been, not a one of us would be here, yet with such an assertion or with such an explanation, without you trusting GOD whole-heartedly, it would profit you nothing. If youcannot trust GOD, you can- not expect for GOD’ to trust you, but in turn, in a reality, wheresoever GOD is, if you can and will trust HIM, I-IE’ will ‘trust’ you. That is why GOD has brought into visible and outer expression the comforts and conveniences, modern improve- ments and every],other desirable ex- pression on the .Material Plane, for’ the comfort} and convenience of those who are commonly known as the ehildren of Omen. As a person, as I you said a little while ago, you would not give a minister a dollar, or Five Dollars at the time. Where would it have been, if he would have put__it to an exchange and safe- guarded; it, ‘and secured it where. it V _ T_he “sroinm woman would ' have been a protection for you. It would have looked profitable and practical and constructive by so doing, but to the reverse, the more you give a natural person as a rule, the less they will trust you, and the less they will actually do for you in safe-guarding you inter- est, but in the Great Universal Scheme of things, it would not be so. It would be according to MY Plan, not merely the Townsend Plan, ‘but the DIVINE P.l:an, ordained be- fore the Foundation of the World, through the Condescension of GOD, ‘and this INFINITE NAME to come‘ to the Earth Plane. Upon this Foundation, you can stand. You should stand.‘ You could be I substantiated and confirmed, never’ ‘to be shaken again. The Di- vine Plan is with or without a per- .' son. The Divine Plan stands for, I AM not stressing- MY Plan as the Plan’of a man, but as the Plan of a PRINCIPLE before the Founda- tion of the world, even before the Creation of the World, before the world began, and; that is why you see all of these coming forth into expression and being made ready for each and every true and faithful servant to be an individual inde- ' pendent unit as far as material _ things a.re concerned, as an individ- ual independent unit to free them from the mortal obligations and :li-- mitations and undesirable conditions, such as the world is now under- going. Oh! it is something to consider. I, do not talk it, but I AM acting it. I do not allow any person to know I definitely MY E n d ea‘v.o r s until I have brought them forth into. ex- pression, and begun to exhibit them, When I said", I want every person who will become to be an Inheritor_ in the Divine Development, to have his individual property, I meant if they build a house or anything of that kind, I want them to have it FREE and CLEAR, without any strings tied to it, so they could know and be sure, matters not what would comeand go, it would be a matter of impossibility for them to lose, so long as they do the right thing, and did not lose by sin or some other way.

Mrs. Vaughn: ‘ FATHER, thirty- one years ‘ago, I got on a. street car at 136th Street and Eighth Avenue, and as I. stepped on the step, I saw alittle something folded up laying on» the step, I picked _it up and looked at it, and I found it, was a Dollar Bill. Of course ‘I thought it belonged to ,me. You know FATHER‘, we used to think when we, found something that it belonged to us. "I heard FATHER say something one night in His ‘Lec- ture about finding things, saying that those things which we found, - did not even 'belong to us. I had-» not thought about the dollar" until. that time, when it ‘came to me one night that thatdollar did not belong to me. I went to an office down . on Eighth’ Avenue and One hundred ‘and fifty-fifth Street, to turn in the a "Dollar, but ‘I found that was the Elevator Office, instead of the ‘Street Car office. .They said to me there,’ ’_:“Thirty-one,‘ (31), years ago \,_/ _\ 7i\. you found. that dollar, and you are» going to‘ turn it in?” I said, “That is FATHER DIVINE’iS Teaching, even if it were a ‘dime or a penny, we would not keep it.” They said, “Why don’t you give‘ it to FA- THER?” I said, “You know FA- THER DI‘VINE doesn’t accept any money. If you do not believe it, try to give HIM some—and see if ' HE will accept it.” ‘ FATHER responded: . Of, course , as I have often said, in turning any- thing into MY Office to the Lost and Found" Department, it is not done just to be merelyrturning it in. It is done for the purpose of ad- vertizing it, to -see if the party who lost it, might get it. If they can for it or if they can identify it, it can. be had. =Now anything like’ that, (referring -to the dollar above referred to) it would not be ‘nec- essary to turn it into MY Office to put it in the paper, because no one could come up now and know defi- nitely and truthfully, and say-, “I lost that dollar at a certain time,?’ or “at such and such a time,” even if they could, it would not be iden— . . tifiable,»and it wouldvnot be justifi- able, if a person came up and said, “I lost a dollar about that -time,” because they cannot identify it, but ifyou turned it into the Railroad Company's Office, and tell them it was found on the car or on the step as you were going’ in, of, ‘course the public could‘ have lost it——some out- side person, -and yet the Conductor ' could have lost it, however, if you told them, I doubt whether‘ there would be any material gain by so doing, but yet it is worth more than its value‘ to convey the Spirit of ‘HONESTY and~to inject it and in- sert it in thelives of those who are in authority. -See that is the Vmys- 4 tery. -‘-It will be worth more ‘than. the value of the mere dollar, you see! I, So inany people have returned stolen goods and lost and ‘found things, etc.,‘ and those to whom they have returned them, would not re- ceive," them-—or in otherwords, in some_ instances, they would say they could not identify the money——— or could not find the person to whom it was due, etc., however, it would cause the re-action of your.

The subject was Russia. / I Although _he is an able speaker, with the ability and. the vocabulary to articulate with great ease and is redundant in the use 1 of two dollar words, he did not appeal to me.— He failed to click; as I sensed an air of pedantry, in fact I could almost see the pedestal.

They seem hope- lessly lost in the letter.‘ I He spoke of Russia, andiwhile he has not been there, he ‘rather con- decendingly ‘agreed to “mitigate his criticism for Kthe sake" of loyalty.” When I hear such speakers I feel that I want more air. ‘I feel stuffed, zentangled, and enmeshed in the bar-_ bed wire intricacies off-book learn- ing.

I Mr. /Breslow was in Russia and spent some time traveling to differ- ent points investigating conditions among the workers. ‘I-Ie wa.s7‘born_in_ Russia and had been away 28 years.» He was astonished when he. saw the number of peasants in the" Railway Stations reading the newspapers,‘as practically none of them could read V when ‘he was there before. He said that the workers are hap- ‘ py and that there is no terror there. They are so anxious for knowledge -that it is hard to supply? the demand ipapers,» books, etc. Also the Theatres and the Movies are crowd- ed as people ‘are seeking knowledge and improvement everywhere.

Both of these speakers had listened attent- -ively to 'the Professors theoretical . discourse. g It was a real treat to hear this gracious lady, who has been a mem- ber of the Socialist Party for 38 years, tell of her visit to Soviet Russia. that is soo-thing and a Spirit that rings TRUE-—'you just know she’s regular. ‘ She stated that a few months ago the National Socialist Party. did’nt want to discuss the Soviet Union. That- even now there was a pre- _scribed list that she as a Socialist could talk to. She said that she was a disciplined Socialist because she thinks it wise to be so, buttat times she takes a chance of being, fired out of the Party, but so far hasnot been ousted. ‘ She stated that revolutions are not planned but are spontaneous out- bursts when human suffering is so full that the cup is overflowing. The first three years in the Soviet were _a total loss, as all time was spent in fighting off the opposing forces. She marvels at. what Russia has done and is doing. These people, when they took possession of ‘the Country, were most of them illiterate and seldom ever traveled; they did not even know where the natural re- sources were located. It was all new to them, and they had to call for en- gineers and industrialists from Eng- land, Germany, United States etc., to work out. their industrial problems and get them under way. .5 Mistakes were made of course, as it -took time to industrialize a.coun- try with only green-horns from both the country and -the city. “But,”_ said Mrs. Berger, “my. hat is off to Rus- sia for the Herculean task they have accomplished.” The country is whol- ly. independent in case of intervention and the people are full of a feverish enthusiasm, witha progressive spirit, full of‘ energy with‘ a ’will to ac- complish. _ ‘ The critics must remember that the industrialization program varies ' with the accomplishments. For in- stance, they are now able to secure bed sheets and curtains that they never had before. This was apart of . the second five «year plan. \ 1 Mrs. Berger thinks _-that-the revo- ‘umes. She has an ease and grace. The “SPOKEN woe ” ’ . lution was justified on what they have done on Education alone.

The Youth of the United States are perplexed -by the stupidity . and inanity of our System. The crime ‘of mismanagement caused by gree‘d.

The Akulaks or.land owners will never again have -the oppor- tunity to exploit the‘ worker. Russia is the one nation with hope, says Mrs. Berger. Her talk was in-/ spiring and refreshing and we do not wonder that the Socialists have final- ly snapped out of it and acquiesced to the discussion of Soviet Russia. If all the Socialists were like Meta Berger, it wouldn't. take long to have a United Front and a Farmer-Labor Party. She is too big to resort to petty bickering and criticism when the True Facts are so cleariand dis- cernible. ‘ .Her perspective is gained from the heights and she sees with th_e_ eyesof‘ ta seer.

For instance, “one-derfull’_’.—— full of one-ness; and v“won-derfull,” the present tense of the verb “to win” meaning Victory.« “Songs for Votes” waslthe propo- sition Mrs. Donis Rohrback Mur- ray made today.

I' , Zscrutiny of history discloses that ever scince the dawning of the Christian era, and -even before that,’ there has been a persistent, if often obscure,~ conviction that the human family is essentially one; tha-t it must be unified in some «palpable, recognizable coherence which would be consistent with its essential bio- (Ey A. H. The message ~ and ‘work and ap- parent’dea'th of Jesus", particularly as formulated into a philosophical and to some exten-t sociological phi- olosophy by St. Paul, ‘ gave special emphasis and power to this -idea and conception. _ , _ The Roman Empire had at /its root some such idea, and, along with it, _;th'e hazy idea‘ of the deity of the Emperor himself. "After Con-- -stantine made Christianity the. of-' ficial religion of the Roman Empire the -two ‘ideas developed side by side——.'.t:hat there, ,must’ be a, recog- nized, visible spiritual head to the _ human race and also a temporal head. ,_ ,While these two ideas ‘were de- ‘ ve1opin:g—~wit,h H many _clashes in t-he .working’ out of the problems of spir- itual and‘ temporal headship, phi-pr’ losophers were ‘also having ‘a dream of—-—or~ were nursing the idea of- 'a universal a1.1-pervading spiritual substance. But the relationship of ‘this spiritual universe to the ma- terial was not understood. .There ‘was no ' real unity thought‘ and action, and neither the temporal no-r spivritual rulers could get ‘away’ from t-he idea of ruling by’ «physical. force and violence. V The idea of a ,Universe and _a World of Love and‘ Peace did not htahe ho1d.- — , Now the Personality, the Prin- ciple, the Method, the Plan and the Power of FATHER DIVINE catches up all these thoughts and gropings of .hu-man history and brings them to a. focus for_ a new beginning. We arevvery literally in Another Day! FATHER DIVINE announces, re- deals and embodies this Universal ‘Mind Substance, shows .how_ i_t‘,is I. .» _, of. related, to matter, and teaches ‘His’ followers how to apply the princi- ples of the World of ‘Spirit to the World of Matter. He; too, teaches the Unity of the human race‘; an- nounces, or at least acknowledges His Own Headship’-'of that Unified. Humanity. He comes forth to inake -the Dream" of Jesus come true, and He leads His Hosts in singing,‘ of ' the , Christ _Consciousness—‘ “He rules the world with Trut-h and Grace, - . ' And makes the nations prove A The glories of His Righteousness And wonders of His ’ Love.” -A World of Peace, ruled by Love ~—that is the Righteous Government of FATHER DIVINE’$ Peace Mis- Vsion. It is evident that the impasse. which has obviously been reached‘ in our so-called civilization has been caused by ‘-the fact that the basic -conceptions upon ewhvioh that civili- zation has been reared and organ- ized are fundamentally false. This fundamental falsity lies" pri- .,marily! in the fact, that it has been assumed that . 'theA_d.e,epest impulse of the human spirit is the acquisi- tive i-mpulse—~the impulse to get; Whereas that deepest impulse is now known to be thevimlpulse to create, to make, to ‘produce. Every normal human being has at the roots of his‘ personality or character that motive to make something*——jus-t as the impulse of the bird is to sing, the impulse of the honey-bee is to ~m~a'ke honey, the impulse of. beaver is to build a..dam. -The fighting ilmlpulse of human" beings, as of animals, is on1yiinci— dental to their impulse to. inake things. at The real nature of‘ the bee is not to s‘ting,_but‘ to make honey. 7 He stings only when and because his hon‘ey-making process is threat-t ened or interfered with. . Human history shows that the con st nt attempt ha.s been to o—rgan- g ize mankind around the acquisitiv‘e'~ and hoarding and fighting impulses rather than around the creavti-ve. It” is as if bees should organize-them-at It the ~ selves . about ' the stinging impulse rather than about the honey-par., ducing impulse. 4 ‘Of course the hoarding- ins goes along with -the productive-‘in by animal life; food is stored for fu-’ ture use, and animals will ,fight t_Q,. protect their store. Human beings do th'e_sam,e. But this hoarding? in-j stinct ‘does not abtually appear ‘to? ‘ be fundamental to human nature. J. The closest. analogy in nature _to.-_ '_ the essence of the human -spirit is that of the singing bird; ‘_he does not. hoard his ‘song; he throws it ‘away’, it knowing that there is plenty more‘. where that came from‘. Just -so does the ‘flower throw away its p€¢f- r fume. . V’ T ‘ The poet, the composer, the musi‘-V cian, the singer, the essential artist’-— all have this impulse of lavish gcn- erosi-ty. The singer sings, the poet») wri~tes\—lavishly, knowing‘ that the,’, stores of beauty -and joy are inex- h-austible. This was the ipoint of view of Je-" esus- Behold the fowls of the air‘;ﬂ ‘_ ‘consider the lilies; take no thought." Until FATHER DIVINE came, no _ one .se'ems to have taken Jesus very ; seriously. °It"has been supposed ‘ei- ‘-ther’ that He.._did not mean quite _ what He said, or that forxsome un- accountable reason what He told us to do could not quite be don-e. FA;-V THER DIVINE says it can be done; and for long, glorious years has been proving that it ca.n.be. done by _ DOING IT!

The “SPOKEN WORD” Voting Instructions Qualifications.-The vote is the means by which Citizens express their wishes in matters pertaining to -their Governlrnient. A qualified voter is a citizen born or Natural- ized’ -in the United States who shall have attained the majority, a, -resi- , dent of New York State for \at least one year,, of the county in which he intends to cast his vote 4 months, and in his respective dis- trict 30 days before election time. To eliminate illiteracy, the state has provided day and evening schools giving literacy tests; » Registration.—~Before_ one can vote, one must register... Registra- tion usually takes place several weeks before the election. The pur- pose is to pass on the qualifica- tions of the voter and to safeguard against impersonation and duplica- tion ‘at the polls. Before registra- tion was adop,ted,unscrupulous':. vot- ers Went from district to district and from poll to poll ‘repeating their votes’. Today e-very registrant is followed up by the police to see. that he lives at the address given to . the clerks at the pol-1. Enrolment.—lWhen a voter regis§_ ters, he enrolls, at the same time, with a party. Party enrollment, however, -is not compulsory. He jg handed an enrollment blank on which he places a cross in the circle of the party» with which «he desires to enroll. This entitles the voter to take part in the primary election of that party the following year, if on-e should occur. Besides it gives the various -parties an estimate of their probable strength and affords the voter the literature of his par- -ticular party before the next elec- tion. } "Primary:-Prima.-ry election is an election within a party. party there are two or more can- didates who -desire the nomination for the mayoralty. An election is held at which the voters who en- rolled, the previous year ‘are per- mitted to make. their choice. candidate-who receives the greatest number of votes. in— the primary election’ becomes the party nominee forthat office.

It is the only day for the Presidential election in all states. The voter appears. at the place he « registered weeks before. After sat- isfying the clerks that he is the «one who registered, he is .s-hown into the voting booth; by using the cur- tain handle which is _on the left.‘ the curtain is drawn before the ma- chine, while the voter is operating it. He pulls down levers located A above the candidate's name, and his a votes are registered; inspectors at the polls may challenge anyone Whom they suspect of dishonest vot- they also supervise the count- ing of th'e ballots and the records of the voting machines. Each local result is sent to the superintendent of elections under whom all of them are tabulated and the final results announced. ‘ ' f ‘ I Thank You FATHER~._ ‘ JOHN M.

This plump, man of no caste, whose very shadow would out- ragevhigh-caste Hindus, managed to get a good education in Indian Gov- ernment schools, was sftaked to courses at the University of London and Columbia - University-’ by highly democratic Gaekwar of Ba- roda. the only_ma'n alive who ever walked out in a huff from a private audi- ence. with the Pope ‘of Rome. His Holiness Pius XI having heard from Dr. _Ambedkar about the miseries of Indian outcastes, replied’: “My son, it may take three or four cen- turies to ‘remedy these abuses, be patient.” » Impatient Dr. Ambedkar sum- moned 10,000 raggle-taggle Untouch- ables to Nasik ‘near Bombay last autumn,_ said ‘-‘deliberately: “I had ~ the. misfortune of being born with the stigma of Untouchability; But‘ it is not my fault.

MARCH 21ST, 1936 A.D=F.D. 2.30 PM. ’ ’ - A peaceful and supremely happy Group from New York sat around the Banquet Table at the -Stone Ridge Mansion in The Promised Land, Saturday Afternoon, March 21st. Outside, was the distant roar of the River as its flood waters raced over a. rocky bed, but within was heard nothing but the sounds of Praise and Merriment, and o'c- casionally the Voice. of Him that millions long to‘ hear, as FATHER Talked of the cows and , chickens, and various things about The Prom- ised ‘Land. ' Everybody .was happy, because : their; hearts’ desires ‘had been sat- isfied’, and the great Satisfier, their infalelible’ Security and Protection, was with them in His Personal Bod- ily: Form. All morning He had _been‘ engaged with a part of His Legal ‘Staff ‘elsewhere, serving as always, in -the further extension of blessings for the True and the ‘Faith- ful, and now He had returned to serve -at the Banquet Table. .l.\/Iany ‘Songs of Praise were spon- taneously sung, of His Goodness-, Love and Mercy,. but finally one came forth from Him Personally, as v He Sang and Spoke. softly as fol- lows: ‘It “is so sweet just to know, That your FATHER Loves you so, He does listen -to your heart’.s faintest cry. I (I ‘heard you say) I will trust in His.Grace, I For -I have seen His smiling Face, ’Ti~s so sweet just to know that He is ‘here.’ “That Song was not justicom- -posed yesterday.’-_ That Song was composed by the Spirit in th-e per- son of Mother, as she was Resur- rected, and recognized the Presence ‘of GOD as a Reality. The trans- posed version ’given,——’Tis -so sweet just to know that‘yo‘ur Father Loves you so’; as one" -sin-going to another it is directed, but the identical Com- -position as it was given to the ,- in- dividual c-alme forth by in«spi_ratio«n saying: ‘ ' * ’ _‘It is so sweet just to -know, That my FATHER Loves me so, I 0 He does listen to my heart's; faintest cry. I will trust in His Grace, For I‘ have seen His smiling Face, ’Tis‘so sweetujust to know He’, is here.’ I SUBSTANTIATEI) oN"A FIRM FOUNDATION .. By’ this recognition, she was Re- -surrected in the conscious realiza- tion of GOD’S tangible and materi- alized Presence. Upon that Founda- tion she was substantiated. and wheresoever this isnsung with the c-on-sciousness of the one through whom the composition came, it al- ways stirs all’ the way from that time up until this. It also calls. to mind many seen and unseen seeming dangers the different individuals No. 35‘ When - figs 4.. have undergone,‘ and especially those is with whom we ‘have come in con.- tact, and especial-ly Mother as an individual, and others who have en-' deavored to be governed by the Spir- it of the same leading which gave ner deliverance. It is indeed Won- derful! . There was another. Com~position came fort-hf just about the same ti:me,p——(FA'I-‘HER Sang it), ‘I_ -thank Thee Lord, that I can cast, My burdens all on Thee. ‘ A ' To Thee, dear LORD, I'll humbly trust, “ The keeping of my soul. . Oh FATHER, I will cling to Thee, (You said) I‘ Love Thee more and . more. _ To Thee, dear LORD, I'll humbly trust, I ' The keeping of my soul.’ ‘Though I raging storms around me i sweep, And wild the -billows roll, To Thee, dear LORD, 1'11 humbly ' . -' trust, - The keeping of my soul. oh FATHER, I 'will‘cling to Thee, I Love Thee-‘more and more. To Thee, dear LORD, I’l1 humbly ‘ trust,’ ' V V The keeping of my soul.’ That is the way those Compositions came ‘in. ‘those days, and yet it could be said ”IlI-IExSE days, for ,-times and seasons no longer come, in the conscious recognition of GOD’S Pres-. en‘ce,' for this is one Eternal Day, wheresoever we are really standing in the Consciousness of GOD’S Pres- ence as a "Living Reality. Days and seasons’ can no longer come, for you are in’ the Light of eons Infinite Sun. Therefore your Sunlnefer goes down. It ne’er goes down! .Now isn’t that Wonderful!‘ If the Sun does not go down,‘ ‘days: will not come and go. It is one Eternal Day so‘ long. as the Sun shines. Therefore walk in the Light of My’ Love. FROM THOUGHT OF GOD IN THE SKY‘ Walking in this Light, and walk- ing in this Understanding, the Spir- it of My Presence will be a Reality continually, and the very day in which you began to sing in this recognition will be the same; day in The ‘/‘SPOKEN, worm» « time,——which will be .called or could be called,-——year.s to come. To you it will be -the same day, for you have entered into a New Day. That is why‘ we brought forth that Com- position in recent years, around Nineteen Seventeen,——‘You are" in another Day,‘ Praise GOD, you ‘are in another Day.’ . In Nineteen Seventeen, about nineteen years ago, this is classed according to the composition of those two first Songs when Mother first saw Me, as recent years. Nine- teen Seventeen is only a ‘few years, compared to the times and seasons that have come,-—such as CH-AVE come and gone‘ 'apparent1y,—since the time . the Spirit revealed. the first two‘ Compositions sung through Mother. It may sound to- a few of you. as if though since Nineteen Seventeen it has been quite some time. It has only been nineteen years, and not to be compared with --the years and years according to the calendar years of our present system of counting time, that it has been since the songs were com- posed, -when Mother was healed, and freed from the thought of GOD in the sky. ' NOTHING LOST IN THE CHRIST CONSCIOUSNESS When I call your attention to that, it is to stir up the Founda- tion of her conscious conviction and realization, and her consideration she established in herself through her conviction of Me and of My Work.. From thence until this time, up un- til .3, little while ago, she was sit- ting here by Me." This does not say she -is bound to remain. If she would refrain from her endeavors, and refuse to live according to her vows she made, and her pre-endeav- ors, she could be a. personal, and a mental, and a spiritual failure as an individual, but the transmission of all endeavors, and all vows and agreements -that have been made will goon as effective from ‘one to another, if one is a failure. is not-hing lost in the Christ Con- sciousness. I So that is a great consolation,- the same as transferring a title, it always will be the same; if one can- not-put it through and will not stand to the agreement, and fails to There \ Satllrdayy March 28th, 1936" go on, the promise that has been made still stands firm for it can be ‘ transmitted, it can be assigned to - others, and it can be reincarnated, it can be reproduced and re-personi- fied, for it. is personifiable. If it is necessary to produce‘ a body to fulfill the endeavors it is fulfillable and it is personifiable; it is always producible, can be produced and can be reproduced from time to time. Nevertheless, as I Said conI:ern_1ng' Myself as an Individual, xvhatsoevc-.r GOD has Promised He will Perform. with or without this My Form. I am not going by what I will do Personally especially, but whatsoever I have Said concerning My Endeavors, I will carry them out with or without this persbn. That’s the mys'.e"ry! « Z , — By standing in this recognition you are living according to the Spir- itpand not according. to the flesh. ‘Neither are you living after the it’ your flesh, but after the "Spirit. own body be a,_ failure, your en- deavors will be ca.:::ied out to the letter, for the promise and the en- deavors -areno longer mortal nor materiality. ‘They. are real mental. arid spiritual germs, to be n1:a,::riil- lye manifested as they are put forth into expression and put into action. Now isn’t it Wonderful! ' IMPOSSIBLE FOR GOD T0 FAIL That is the great consolation each\ of you have, if -there would come a. thought at this or any other time, ‘Suppose FATHER DIVINE would apparently: be’ a failure.’ as some have said in reference to Me, ' concerning the protection of all of My Followers: some / have said ‘You put all your trust in FATHER DI- VINE; suppose I-Iewould be a fail- ure.’ If you know the Truth, it is a matter of hn.possibi1ity for GOD to fail. GOD was GOD before “He put Himself in a visible expression, or manifestation to be’ visibly man- ifested, and GO-D ,was the same in your consideration‘ if you really knew If you knew Him from a Mental and from a, Spiritual point of view He was -the same, and since; A He has come’ into observation you are merely applying the same ver- sion that mankind had and held ' . coneerningicop and CHRIST in the Bodily / Saturday,‘ March 28th, 193:‘; Invisible and Spiritual Realm. A You have merely materialized it in your consideration. You have produced it and brought it forth, the same as we_ may :say an Attorney may be requested to Producevhis Client on certain occasions. ‘Produce your client." Well now, he must go and produce him personally. ' THE PHYSICAL BODY OF GOD GOD has merely produced Himself as a. Personified _expression, to verify the .positive versions of the True "Believers concerning this mystery. See? That is the mystery! But as far -as the Personal Activities of the Individual, it may, be insignificant. The essential is, to produce that which you have brought to your conscious conviction and realization, ’ and that which you are endeavoring to verify concerning GOD'S Pres- ence. You are merely to produce it to verify your assertion. It is indeed Wonderful! But you have produced it! You 'have' the Physical Body of Myself. As in reference to Mother, if she would fail it is equiv- alently 'the same; I am not passing any accentuation: on the body of Mother any more than on the body in which I am Living, and no more on any other body more than I am on My Own Tabernacle, but I Speak as One Who is absolutely in- dependent of all visible expressions. Yet the visible-ization of all things that are verified by the children of men,’ it is for the purpose of con»- sciously verifying it to the con- sciousness of the children of men by bringing it into materialization, and by personifying "same, and produc- ing it. See? That’s the mystery! But w-hatsoever I-have endeavored}! I’ will do it with or without My Body. My Body will not prohibit it, and ‘My Body cannot force it to be, e-specially, saving as a verifi- cation of c-ertain actions for the purpose ‘of convincing the people consciously who are living in Imortal consciousness, concerning ‘certain things that are necessary. ' To «pro- -duce the Person as visible and as an outward expression to verify your assertions, that is what it is for, “"-but I WILL do everything I Say. I do not‘ think a thing about the V’_condition«s, or circumstances, or The ‘fSPOKEN WORD” seeming difficulties, or failures, or disappointments, or -any such thought that may arise through the skep- tics. My Spirit, and My Presence, and My Endeavors, will éiccomplish -a1l,I have endeavored,‘ through per- sistence and through this assertion. As SURE AS THE ' SUNRISE So it is apretty and a beautiful thought,- to observe the mystery of GOD’S Presence as a Living Real- ity,‘ -and build upon this Foundation where you cannot be shaken. I am just as much sure to accom-plish'My Endeavors as you may be sure the Sun will rise -at some time. You have not the least slightest doubt that the Sun will not rise. You feel sure by Science, the Sun MUST rise, and the =Sun must apparently go ‘down. It isn’t a. question in your mind concerning it, don’t you see. I know there are those of‘ the Religious world have said -and t'hough‘_t through their different the- ories, that the Sun some day will refuse to shine, but those of us who are up to the minute in this light of Civilization, we are conscious in our conscious conviction and realiza- tion, that the !Sun will shine some day. Now isn’t that Wonderful! Upon‘ this ,Foundation you can be assured you are safe. Even though -all visible -bodies disappear into, the nothingness of, the nothingness. of the versions of men, ‘GOD to you would be the same, for GOD is all there isthat is Tea A WIISDOM BEYOND DEGREES A-t this point one of those present said:—-‘FA'IlHER, I have thought so often, You had to come just as we have had to come. ”If You had come full-fledged or' something like that, there would be no hope for us. We have ‘got to come just the way You have come. Isn’t that right?’ ' V . In response FATHER continued: “Well you have already come. You are here!” Previous Speaker:—‘I mean before A we knew about this, we had to ‘take the steps, di3‘n’t- we '2’ FATHER: “It is not what I DID take, it is what we are taking T0- DAY, and it is what your version concerning Me, may be. To each I F one, I am -according to what they take Me to be. Mother's version‘ at that time,—-if she loses it,‘—wa.=s, she had seen His Smiling Face. V She was consciously convicted and con- ” vinc-ed that this was He {at Whom she ‘had sought so long, in a Per- sonal Bodily Form. By this recog- nition she was delivered from wor- ries, cares and afflictions as an in- dividual, asit was said by the Re- ligions all WOULD BE when they i enter into this recognition. That's the mystery! ‘ ENTRUSTED T0 G()D’S« KEEPING . Through this recognition, today she is sitting where she is‘ sitting, and if for any cause she as a per- son would be a failure, it is not because _ shef has not been blessed by her ‘preconceived version con- cerning Me. She has been blessed .to the extent, she has been freed Afrdm worries, ‘obligations, responsi- bilities, vand cares, mentally, spirit- ually and physically. Physical af- flictions have been no longer her consideration. She does not have to V . “take a thought what she is going to eat one day for.the next. 'She en- trusted herself in My "keeping and.- care whole-heartedly, according to t-he Composition., and I ‘have. en- deavored ‘to verify, it scientifically and ‘legally, to fulfill that which is just as GOD would fulfill to‘ her, and I «presume -she can verify the same. Even as far as material, and personal, and real things are con- cerned, she could not lose by «trust- ing Me and ,depending on _ Me and on My Name. From a natural point of view she is ‘secure, and if she is not, victorious continually, it is not on My account as._a person, neither as the Impersonal Life put, forth into expression, for it is free for her. She is free. Anything She lacks, or comes short of apparently, it is _not because I haven’t openly, legally, spiritually,. and otherwise. given her her freedom, Such as One could give, and as a sample and an ex‘am.p1e it was given, that others ' might observe the mystery. 1 con IS JUST ‘IN, EVERY WAY _ Every other individual who fol- lows in the foot-.steps of Mother; from that expression, not copying Page V March 7 II‘ 3‘ The _“sPoKmN.woR1)" a'fte—r”h»erV especially, but.‘-"froxjn* that man is a ‘Mathematician.’ The MAN j§?‘_.Pr¢5$i9I1_ or degree s copying agter is a -Mathema'ticia,An,—'the BODY,-—'-I "the" spiritual devoutness ‘that/sheide-.. because he -has personified it, and veloped and unfolded; th-ey too will kthe thing that rules and controls a have the_ ;sa;me freedom as ‘many of body, the body‘ bee5‘hfi§s..; to be ' a $15’ °.‘U_0W9,I‘§_,.’i'h?«Y€- GOD is Just! ‘lpart of it?’ and‘the :_spirit,_._bec_om-es D, _.

By A. Howland V In studying, analyzing, understand- ing and preparing‘ to participate in the Righteous Government of Father Divine’s.Peace Mission it is helpful to « go down to the roots of the words, terms and principles. involved. At‘ ’ the beginning it is quite ob- vious that the very word, “Govern- 'ment” must, in the light of -the state- ments and definitions to be found in the Platform of _the Righteous "Government, be understood in a some- what different sense from that which has” been the popular. conception. Z An illuminating phrase _occurs in" Section o1'o.f the ‘Political Division -of the Platform. This Section reads: ‘f'I‘ha.t- all candidates, including can- didates for President, be nominated . entirely fbyﬁthepeople andthat they ' be required to meet speci,fie'drequire- ments, to prove their qualifications for Office, notas .Politicians but ‘as technical‘ experts.” I . Those words, “NOT AS POLITI- CIANS BUT "AS TECHNICAL EX- PERTS,” demand further study. We noticed in our9study last week that under the guidance of Father Divine’s «Spirit, the human family is now to ._be organized about the creat- ive impulse of the individual rather than the acquisitive, or possessive impulse.

So this new Divine G‘overn»m‘ent is to be a government by “Experts” who will know how to direct the people in ‘their work. That’s what the new Divine Government essenti- . ally is. " When Henry Ford was asked, in 1923, if he would accept the nomi- nation. for President of the United States him; he replied that he could not seeany reason why a busy man who and could do States as he -would look ‘at a “great factory--one_ V hundred and twenty‘ women‘ and‘ children, spread out on this ‘great land with its limitless resources, and wanting to do their work." He said the only kind of a “President" he ‘could im- agine himself as wanting to be would, be a. President who ‘would have the opportunity and the authority to di- rect ‘the people in their work. And he said that if '-the American people ever got ready to organize themselves . in that way——about their work-—he might conceivably be willing, -to ac- cept the job of directing those oper- ations. _ s Well, now that's precisely the kind of a country we are going to have; the kind we have got,to have—-if we -are to have any kind of a‘ country at all. . ‘ _ And this is the thing President ' Roosevelt seems to have been trying togsome extent to do—to shift the emph_asis-‘of, golvernment over to that task of aiding’ and ‘directing the peo- ple in theirfwork, " : .We__ have spoken gofthe people and the land‘ being like bees-—-bees gathering honey from the fields and storing-_ it in their hives. Ford thought or the country as 3'. great factory; he visualized and talked about it as if it were one of his own great factories, where all persons and all objects are coordi- nated for one purpose—-to turn out cars. ‘_ p ’ And in meditating and trying to -9 in up case it was. of-fered to Henry .

And that’s thekind, of a living, Divine PLANT our country must become! ' A ;_i * We have made the business of liv- ing and being citizens and business V people’ and soldiers" so complicated that we have forgotten what life really is and what it is all about. Now“ Father ‘Divine comes to" set‘ , everything and everybody straight.

They may be said to be either cos- mopolitan or provincial. ' The cosmopolitan mind is an all- embracing mind. It is universalistic in its tendencies, broad and toler- ant.‘ It ‘sees the good in all groups as well as -the ‘defects, but does not judge -people solely by their limita-"5 tions or condemn a whole g-r_ou.«p be- . cause of some individual within the group who is not -represent-ative of _ its best charact-erist'ics.- ‘One be cosmtopolitan in mind and heart even though he has never traveled and on the other hand one may travel A all around the world, and if he is narrow and bigoted will gain nothing from this experience -that is of any value to himself or to society. - Human Mind Complex The human mind is quite com- plex and a. v-ery- uncertain factor. V Despite the long processes of evolution » and the =sloW'a.1_1d tortuouis growth of man's mentality, -there are times when he sinks to the level of a beast and a barbarian. If "he has an‘ inferiority complex, which most people have in one form or -another, he will satisfy. it by. lording over people less fortunate than himself or who are part of a minority group. Bull.-ices are not uncommon in -the world. ‘~ Wars, persec-utions, racial, na- tional and religious hatreds, vicious propaganda are the result of preju- dice based largely_ on ungrounded fears aroused by dem-agogues andt are common to all peoples and na- tiOI1vS.' In this nation composed of immigrants or descendants of ‘im- migrants of every -nation, race, sect and color whose ancestors came to this country for freedomjgand great- er opportunities or who might have come here themselves for‘ the same purpose there should be no place for -provincialism, and yet in Some respects we are the most provincial people in the worldﬁ flfiio, -erasing.’ Worm" Open Mind Needed Our Constitution and “ Declaration of Independence are not based on uniformity and have not been es- tablished or built up by any one race or creed. This country is the -product of all nations and all civ- ilizations. If this country is to con- tinue to grow intellectually, to re- tain democracy and -to survive as the greatest political experiment in the world, we must break down every vestige of bigotry and hatred. These primitive feelings are not only a menace‘ to the minority groups, but what is more important they are a menace to America’s freedom and future. 9 » We must cultivate in our children an open mind. We must teach them the beauty ‘of, all countries and civ- ilizations. We must impress upon them -the contributions of all na- tions to the greatness of this land and the~riclmes.s of civilization. This will not make them ,_,less patriotic. -As a matter of fact they are likely to appreciate their own country more and the ideals for which it , stands when they are . tolerant of_ other lands and other countries.

WEATHER CONTROL IN HANDS OF MAN . Oh! it is something to consider, if GOD is for you who can be against The Cosmic Forces of Na- ture, they will work in harmony with , you, even as you. are harmoniously working with ‘the FUNDAMENTAL of LIFE. Now isn’t that wonderful? -But with prejudice and with bigoted minds, with destructive thoughts pro- ceeding forth from" your mind, you may expect disasters and destruction at all times. matically by negative orpositive thinking. This is a scientific TRUTH, ,from -a scientific point of view,»...a_c- cording to the Scripture, for JESUS spoke to the Seas when the storm was raging and - said “PEACE BE STILL.” Truly JESUS -was the WAY-V SHOWER, teaching you and others what you should do; how you should live, the way you should/go. FAITH THE ‘ESSENTIAL . ’ When JESUS worked a Miracle,. apparently the ‘Discilples -marvelled As I say, man controls’ the conditions of the weather auto- pl gsatlirday,‘ ‘March V_ at git.

They will not work destructively with you. They work destructively to those and for " those who are destructive "in them- selves, those who think destructive’ thoughts, holding within "themselves destructive ‘ideas and opinions. By so doing, they‘ create for themselves an ‘n-harmonious condition mentally, ~ and the outward‘ expression ofﬁthei Hand of Nature will work automati- cally-throughgthe Cosmic Forces" of Nature destructively, will find ‘men at times, when the very Cosmic Forces of Nature Wouldp Work in harmony with them, at times, there were those whom_ the Cosmic Forces of Nature worked inharmo- niously to them, because of the in- harmonious attitude they had taken_ towards GOD. and 1na.nkind.. KEYS TO THE HIDDEN TREASURE Since we are producers and Ex- pressers of our own POSITIVE or negative thinking, hereafter we will think POSITIVE thoughts, We will act POSITIVE in our actions, and we will work POSITIVE works, that ’we might produce the POSITIVE conditions, and the desirable results will follow. Men marvel at the out-- ward ‘expression of the limitlessness of these Blessings. Why marvel at this when. it is free for you as it is " for ME? ’I}1is_ unfoldment in this dispensation, as it is put forth into expression underthis Jurisdiction, is as free for you as it is -for ME, -but remember, you must live EVan‘ge}j‘.“« it cally’-—give your hearts to GOD .whol‘e-heartedly, ‘do away v€7ith’="‘alla prejud-icesand all bigotry, and allow’ — GOD to 1;}.-‘LULE and work within you _-:1’.—,When this is accomplised, you ‘too, 1'?’ This was said to, verify the Words I have just spoken. ’ “If you have the faith of CHRIST,’ according to. your destructive thinking. _ For this - -cause, we can rejoice and be exceed- lingly glad.

GOD has called for you, or GOD has called for the Oth- er fellow." Your own destructive thinking‘:-’3 your ‘own destructive ac- tions, your own destructive nature '_ and disposition has wrought destruc- tion in your behalf. Oh! it is something to think about, when you can behold your personal conditions are but the outward ex- pression of your "pre-conceived ideas ', and opinions and your’ pre-trend of thoughts, according to what you have been thinking. » : ‘_DESTRUCTIVE THOUGHTS IBRING DESTRUCTION Now again, we speak .of the great depression and the conflicts, limit- ations and the hardships that mil- lions are undergoing today. Mankind ‘speaking of trying to lift the present system ofthings out of the greatide- pression and the hardships which mankind ‘has been undergoing, yet _when We look'around and observe thosevwho are in authority, -using the destructive forces of their power,‘ in _ other words, abusing their powers to , bet destructive instead of being con- structive, I think of the act of those who {are in authority, who ‘will de- stroy the farm produce, destroy crops, destroy "fruit , and vegetables and other; fruits, while millions are starving here. Truly might have one said, “He that wilfully Wastes, he must woefully want,” therefore, those _'who endorse it and encourage it, they shall suffer . . . “A chain is no stronger than its weakest link.” If we have a law in -connection with our Country that is destructive, the Country in itself is destructive. Now isn't that wonderful?» (“Truly won- derful!" assured the Throng.” GOD has rnoved out on the face of the Deep, and GOD shall turn and over- turn ‘until HE shall throw out every _off_icia.l who works dosh-actively, and Cfpiit,’ in those who willstand for “ RIGHTEOUSNESS. . TRUTH ""3-USTlCEa V ’ 1. _. ‘men as a boomerang. NO MAN ~. PERFECT - _ This is something to consider. You "find the different Politicians, many of them with words and acts of criticism oneagainst another, but show Me one person who will deal justly between »man and man, and I will be Willing to‘ vote’ for him. I-Iow—l‘ ever, I do say, qualify "yourselves intellectually, politically, socially and morally to meet the issues of Life,‘ whereby you may be able to pass the Literacy Test for registering and vot- ing. Vote for the person ‘or persons you sincerely believe will deal as near . just, or the most justly among the children of men. Oh! it is something to consider- As I. say at times, why is it there is so much crime? Why is it men resort to crime and violence to seek for "JUSTICE? It is be- cause they have not been taught the_ way of RIGHTEOUSNESS. ~ This is why I have called for RIGHTEOUS- NESS firstly, that JUSTICE might follow, for. if RIGHTEOUSNESS does not come firstly, JU-STIICE will ' come and be destructive. Now isn't that something toconsider. My own Zeal is ‘stirred at times. If it Were not for RIGHTEOUSNESS, I, My- self, would be Personally "destructive, but -because of, RIGHTEOUSNESS firstly, I will not be destructive. - This great CONVERSION is the only essential and the only HOPE of redemption, for without this great CONVERSION, Why mankind can -see the great depression and also the oppressions ' the millions are under- going. Without RIGI-ITEOUSNESS you would Seek ..l'U-STICE through violence, therefore, you would be_ de- structive, but by seeking RIGHT- EOUSNESS firstly, we will not be destructive. We will allow those who are destructive thinkers to re-act upon themselves. Their destructive thinking causes those cdndtions to come upon themselves in the fulfi1l- . ment of the Scripture. “The wicked shall slay themselves.” Their wicked thoughts will slay the wicked bodies when t ey return to the children of It is indeed wonderful! GOD WILL SHAKE THE WHOLE CREATION I was speaking the other day con- cerning the Civil Right Law, com- monly. known as “The Equal Right .I;a&VV‘," in the State of Pennsylvania. There are those in the State of Penn- T sylvariia, who have declared this may be made a Law, but they will break the-Law; Because of prejudice, be- cause of hate and destructive think- ing, such a tendency will cause de- struction and. disasters among the Nations. Pennsylvania is a State that is hit with this disaster more than any other State in the Union.‘ Why is it?_ Itis because of destructive think- ing. Those who are "in authority will endorse and encourage" the violence I of the outlaw. Those who are re- belling against RIGHTEOUSNESS, TRUTH and JUSTICE, therefore, GOD will step in with the Cosmic Forces of ‘Nature, and shake ‘the I whole Creation. I have not done ‘anything yet to E, C What I will do "unless prejudice and I segregation immediately» cease in the City and the State of New York. They shall feel it and shall feel it and shall feel it. For every Dollar, yea, for every dollar’s worth this Country dc-. stroys, they shall lose a Hundred Dollars for every dollar. For every body the lynchers lynch, they -shall lose a hundred bodies for that body they lynched. For every dollar the people rob a person out of by the name of color, or for the cause of A race, , they shall lose a hundred dol- lars for every dollar. Then I say it once again to stir them up. I AM saying it for this purpose, if the Democrats and the Republicans will give ME something better than the Communists offer, I will endorse them. Now isn’t that wonderful? I will endorse them with MY Millions. of Followers who will do. whatsoever —I bid them do, for it is written: “In the day of MY Power, MY People shall be willing.” My Followers are willing, with or without MY PERSON. . They will‘ stand for all MY Endeavors and they will cooperate with ME. ‘ DISCRIMINATION A ROBBER Take these thoughts to c_onsid,,er- ation ——~ —— —— Now remember, even the name Colored is a robber. I say, even the name colored is a robber. Now isn’t that wonderful! The per- son who must use the name colored in reference to you, they are using it consciously or unconsiously as a rob- ber, and I will prove what‘; AM talk- ing about; Your gualifications may i Page 15 , 16 be equivalent to any other individual, but -because of your race or color, as they may call it, they would not give you the office and if they gave you the office, they would not pay you the full salary. Now isn't that robbery? Now tell them I said it . . . The name colored in itself is a robber when it is used to discriminate and to differentiate between man and man for the purpose. of lower-rating and disgracing the individual. It is indeed wonderful! When you hear them say, “Yes, it is such and sucha man——a so and so man,” regardless to his qualifications or his education or classification, handling him es- pecially by some vulgar name that your cursed ‘ancestors named them for slaverynto keep them in bondage and to -keep thorn as slaves to serve you, those of you who would serve _ them for nothing, the name in itself is used for robbery; to rob mankind out of his .Constitutional Rights in this great Country, under which we are supposed to be protected by the Constitution of the United States. WITH OR. WITHOUT A BODY . . ’ Oh.’ it is something to consider. Truly might have one said, -by the prediction, of the Spirit, as he was ~ awakened, “Tell Israel of her tran:sgression, and the house of Jacob their sins." Now they desire to, stop this MOVEMENT. Theydesire for cor- ruption, vice and crime to continue, ; but I have come’ this time to end it. "If thezte be a question in the mind of any ‘_‘_how ean._HE end it?” I twill té11- you I AM PERSONAL and yet IMPERSONAL. I will accom- plish MY Endeavors with or _without a. person, with or without MY PER- SONAL BODY. All I must needs do, is to think or speak and MY Words will go forth and accomplish My En- deavors. I AM not bothering about the BODY. If I have a Body, or if I did not have a BODY, I would and I will accomplish MY Endeavors, with or without a.*BODY. . iWhen the Body called JESUS dis- appeared, there and then the Foun- dation of Christendom was establish- ed and ‘His Mission began. Now isn’t that wonderful? His Mission began as soon as HE ceased to functioli as a Person, ‘therefore, ‘GOD GOD I fically and Victoriously? cause’ RIGHTEOUSNESS was sought" The “SPOKEN WORD” with or without a. BODY. Those who would think ‘ on JESUS, the’ Trans- mission of His SPIRIT and His .CHARACTERISTICS would be im- parted to them. They too, as well as you, would be Partakers of His .NATURE, of His CHARACTERIS- ' TIOS to carry out His Endeavors. automatically. Now isn’t that won- ‘ derful? Truly might have one said, “Am I a Soldier ‘of the Cross, A follower of the Lamb, And shall I fear to own His Cause,‘ Or blush to speak His NAME?” As Soldiers you go into the battle- field to win or die. If you. can die on the battle-field as a brave Soldier, the Spirit and the Mind and your endeavors would be accomplished, for it would go on further and further. It is a privilege to realize GOD as a Living Sacrifice for all mankind as HE was in’ the S0n’s time in the BODY in which HE came. ESTABLISHING RIGHT- EOUSNESS FIRSTLY _ RIGHTEOUSNESS! TRUTH and JUSTICE, I have called for it. I have established it. JUSTICE is es- tablished ‘in your consciousness, in your mentality, therefore, CHRIST is RULING on the Throne of your mind, and > CHRIST alone shall REIGN thereon, because you sought RIGHTEOUSNESS firstly. CHRIST could not reign on the Throne of the mind of those who" have not sought RIGHTEOUSNESS, see! This isthe reason they all are failures, because they have not sought. RIGHTEOUS- NESS, but since I have put RIGHT- EOUSNESS into expression firstly for you and for your consideration, I will carry out MY Endeavors to PERFECTION. Why will it be carried out scienti- It is be- firstly. Men have been -on the bench as Justices but not. with RIGHT- ,E O U S N E S S, therefore, without RIGHTEOUSNESS CHRIST will -not RULE on the Throne of their minds as SUPREME among the chil- dren of men, but because we have es- tablished RIGHTEOUSNESS firstly in your consideration and in your cons-ciousnerss “RIGI-ITEOUQSNE‘SS and JUDGMENT is the Habitation of His Throne. trembled.” ..-. ...r, The earth saw and ‘ sstumyl;,Mgr_gh 2_ati:..".1l 6 CHRIST ALONE SHALL REIGN ’ . CHRIST has «been enthroned on. the, Throne of the minds of the children of men——all who have sought RIGHT- EOUSNE_SS firstly without thinking destructively, now GOD can RULE in RIGHTEOUSNESS on the Throneof their minds, and have all DOMINION and all AUTHORITY without en- deavoring to do any person any harm’, but without RIGHTEOUS- NESS, I say men would be destruc- tive. Violence would -be sought first- ly to seek JUSTICE. You would ‘feel as if though you must take the Law in your own hand to gain your-Con- stitutional Rights, to gain that which is actually due you, that which man- kind through corruption and falsity has taken from you. Now isn't that wonderful? You would endeavor to seek it through violence if you were not converted, but since you are con- verted, you will seek it through RIGHTEOUSNESS, and you will get JUSTICE, for CHRIST will give it while HE REIGNS,on.the Throne of HRIGHTEOUSNESS and has all DO- MINION. \ Oh! it is a privilege to live in this Recognition. Dial in on the FUNDA- MENTAL continually; Where GOD ALONE forever REIGNS and scat-' ters night away, where GOD Him- self through ,His Condescension has truly come and turned all of your night into bright noonday, and will remain here always.

Peace Father! ‘ The little angels of the Child Wei: fare" Department had their opening meeting at Father's Headquarters 20 West 115th Street on Friday, March 20, 1936, A.D.F.D. The auditorium and rostrum were filled to capacity. The -rostrum was -occupied mainly by the little angels and quite a number of visitors and representatives from the different public schools. - We thank FATHER that the little angels are truly letting go and letting God express in them and through them from different angles, such as, plays, songs, poems, testi- monies, etc. . Among the many visitors we had were Alderman Lynch who address- ed the audience. An interesting -part of the pro- gram was a Wonderful testimony by a sister from Baltimore who learned about Father through reading an article that was published in the “Liberty” Magazine, and then she «realized that there must be some-_ thing to this and now she’ has a Peace Mission there. They also have the Righteous Government_ Depart- ment established. , We also had a wonderful testimo- ny and report from the Research and Child Welfare "Departments the Chairman of Brooklyn, and it was truly wonder- ful.

Millions of leaflets bearing Untouchable Ambedkar’s message began fluttering out over India. To what faith the" Untouchables should turn for “equality of status remains to be determined. .' This week in Zion’s Herald, New England Methodist weekly, appears -the first interview with Dr. Ambed- kar to be published in the U. S. since he made his Nasik speech. To get it, -able Edit-or Lewis Oliver Hairtman went to India, sought out its No. 1 Untouchable, plied him with practical questions. Wrote the editor of Zion’s Herald: 1 “The (Un-touchable) leader was rather critical of ,Christianity's con- stant emphasis u-pon personal ex- perience at the expense of any wid- er reference. ‘Why have you not seen the importance of a religion that reaches out into. all life and all relationships?’ he asked. Con- tinuing, he dec1ared~with deep feel-_ ing, ‘If you are going to compro- "mise with evil conditions while you stress personal religion exclusively, I tell you now I am not with .you . . .’ “I pointed out in answer that, so far as the Methodist Episcopal Church was concerned, our watch- word was this: ‘Nothing that has to do with human welfare is for- eign to Methodism.’ This seemed to please him . . .” Of Hinduism the man whom Edi- tor Hartman calls “India’s Lincoln” said: “Hinduism is not a religion; it is a“disease.” -Editor Hartman’s ‘interview con- cluded thus: “ ‘This much is set- tled,’ he said to me, ‘we are through forever with Hinduism. We are go- ing somewhere, butare not ready yet to say-in what direction.’ ‘Yes,’ I answered, ‘you are not strong enough yet to announce a decision. If you compromise with the Hindus, all is lost; if you choose Moham- medanism, the Hindus will crush you; if you go Christian, both_ the Hindus and the Moslems will be on your back.’ “ ‘Exactly,’ replied Dr. Ambedkar. ‘We are not ready——yet.’ ” —Time Magazine. . employment.

AI THANK YOU, FA- THER! Now, about the state you live in which ‘has had you enveloped 10 these many years, you cannot help that in the least, for that psycho- , logy was created before some of. ou . w-ere born, I mean that condl ‘on .which has kept you_‘in a vi-se-like grip and“ all the while holding up the grave as your ' emancipator. But here is where I will show conclusively , that you have‘ not shown the intelligence’ of ‘a Pekinese dog,‘ which was in the room with me while Father Divine’s spirit healed me of all those maladies pre- viously mentioned in this article. Can you imagine singing songs while ' having a {tooth extracted? Especially, without anesthetic? You see, I had mine within and could sing these positive meaning songs such as, “Father is the Healing Balm." One of the dogs had been having blood emittings from havingeaten turkey bones, which everyone knows will kill a Pekin«e~se dog. He also had one of those scourges so com- mon out here in the parks. ‘They work into the head.» They are call- ed fox-tails, looking somewhat like a wheat pod. Now this needle-like piece of grass had worked through his ear to the drum, causing rising in his ear. He had a spot on his paw which resembled pink mange, .-.V/ . he “SPOKEN WOR',I)"’r’ and he had fits and was feverish and, apparentlythad distemper for a long period. ' . Now this dog, wherwhe heard. me’ ‘singing these beautiful songs, I can’ ‘assure you, hemad-e no wisecracrks, and when he would notice me car- ressing V" Father Divine’s photo, neither did he (the dog) say that I was acting coo-coo, but he would look interestedly on. There was a girl who came from down in? the country Where she was ioper—ati»ng a house of prostitution. She now testifies to the fact that the other lady, the house dogs, and myself were shining withsome kind of a new light, and she says she was loath to remain very long, but, she caught that light of. anyway, Him that shineth forever, and she is no more in a, thieving life of pros- titution, but she is an angelic sister, known as Miss Love One. i Here is what happened. She. gave up her house down in the country, came home to this house and began shedding the world, and where she used to go out looking for men in the streets that she might rob them, she began doing just the reverse, for hoping and looking for receptive ears for that message or this mes- sage, FATHER DIVINE. So this house of vice was turned into a house of worship, being used solely for the -purpose of praising FA- THER DIVINE. ishe, the angel, started singing this song to the dog: Father is the healing balm, Father is the healing balm, For puppy’s mind, body, andissoul. Father, is "the healing balm. Also this one Father’s all over. puppy and he is 'making puppy alive He is making puppy alive He is making puppy alive He is making puppy alive . . Father is making puppy alive, etc... But to gain for the dog relax- ation of the dog’s conscious mental- ity, this hands loudly in front of / the dog, simultaneously declaring PEACE, ‘the same as would be done to take = a flashlight of a human being. This would she do just before starting- she would go early and late,I T your angel would smack her ‘ Saturday, March: 28thf.' 1936 singing to the dog. Now, the dog ~i.s~ perfect, and you may observe him for yourself if you happen to be in this city. I shall not try to explain how this seeming miraclous healing~ took place, only I can assure . you the dog did not make any cheap‘ re- marks about “the body beautiful” of . GOD, FATHER DIVINE. So, now, what did you have when you made your cheap cracks? What kind of troubles were gnawing at the very inwards of your bodies and your souls? I know some of ‘you are somewhat timid even, backward, yet, you must say, “I THANK YOU, FATHER,” for what blessings you may desire. This dog has clean blankets upon which to park his body which has become perfect, even to the coat of hair the dog has grown, beautiful in texture, and length, ‘and remember all of this beauty stands and is wrapped about a full stomach which would be a Wonderful Blessing to some of my former associates. I will not attempt to explain Fa- ther Divine to you, but I may say, "as I have the witness within me that Father Divine is God Almighty. Now you have the same witness that I have so why don't you put aside (con man )ideas, still your mind, and see what your witness or the witness whichever will tell you. Remember the little» doggie? iNow this seemingly is addressed towards Harlem,‘ but let me say this goes for any and all people of this earth, makes no difference if you are in a church or in ‘a quandary. I THANK YOU FATHER! IT IS WONERFULL . ~ P. is. World! would you dethrone a king? Who is reigning so per- fectly and giving you all you ever ihoped~for? Father Divine will reign upon the throne of your hearts if you will just seek Him the right way, and where always GOD is found, for you know God cannot come through a_ lot of filth, unless you have a desire to be rid of it. Oh, yes, here is a phenomenon that ‘I see _each day in this house, and that is this; when one of us start singing‘, . “FATHER IS THE HEAL- I'NG BALM” this little dog runs downstairs or wherever the locati, of the singer and goes lovingly to the one that is singing and kiss ? his ‘ or her ‘legs affectionately, and ,. the even the mineral kingdom was des- ‘ tined to be appraised of His return Page 21 . ,’sa£m-day, March 28th, 1936., if man would come to be recep- 'tive to this healing message, the world, would soon become mos-t per- fectly healthy. _ ‘Now, we do know this is not a mystery, though seemingly most strange, for lower animals to hear the voice of FATHER DIVINE through another person, yet did not our Love Master speak of the stones crying out?

I THANK YOU FATHER. “I WILL GUIDE YOU” “I am relating an experience I had while attending one of the meet- ings of FATHER DIVINE at the Columbus Extension. I had left the banquet table and gone up on the third floor, and when I started to come down again, I seemingly lost my way. It was dark and no lights on the floor, and I wandered about until I found a set of steps, ‘so I went down to the next floor where the steps ended. I did not know whether to turn right or left, so I went back to the third floor. While going up, the thought struck me, would I have to stay until some one came. I said, “No, I have One to guide me,” and I stopped and "said, “FATHER! FATHER! -Lead me ou.t of this.” And a voice at my right said, “Come, follow me.” I turned, and I was lead straight out to the stairs I had first as- cended and down to the banquet room.

F.D.—The first meeting of‘ the In- ternational Friendship Club of Wad- leigh High School was held on Thursday,_ March 12, in -the school auditorium, at’ 216 West 115th St. before. a large body of members. The purpose of the club is to bring children of the different na- tionalities together in one, since the school officials feel that only through the spirit of oneness can Friendship be achieved. I I We were honored by having as our. guest speaker Miss Louise Thompson, who has done an exten- sive amount of traveling through many European Countries, also She spoke on “The Cul- tural Heritage of the So and So people;” she also brought out the fact that although this parti- cular group of people have been considered uncivilized ignorant peo- ple, it has been found that before Europe was civilized, people in parts of Africa had built cities with high buildings, and wide streets. She“ also said “to know the back- ground of any people ,one" must know their history-economically, politically, and socially. Miss Thompson read some poems, the work of Langston Hughes, which proved -that the people of to- day believe that this particular group is on the up-grade. ' C In conclusion, Miss Thompson said “the youth of this particular group, and the youth of this particular down-trodden people, are looking for- ward to be lifted; this can only come thru Unity, Unity means strength, strength means power.” We thank FATHER DIVINE for . we can see His words taking form in the lives of individuals; breaking down every undesirable condition, and letting mankind realize that unity only can be achieved by com- ing together in oneness, and its not confined to any particular people, but everyone must recognize his or her sister or brother, for the mouth of God has spoken it. I THANK YOU FATHER. “Father, make. me what I profess to be.” "The Purpose of the Welfare " ‘ Department of the Right-_ eous Government We might say the purpose of the meetings for Father’s Little children through the Welfare Department is to cause them to realize vividly THE BROTHERHOOD OF MAN AND THE CONSCIOUS REIC()G- NITION OF THE FATHERHOOD OF GOD, and for directing their energies in a positive direction; As we know, they are overflow- ing with vitality and it must have an outlet in some direction as FA- THER tells us. So I think all the so-called parents or guardians ought to_ Thank Father for creating the Welfare Department, and give it ‘all the cooperation possible. Father teaches us to do unto others as we would they should do unto us. Therefore, I am sure all the big brothers and sisters are Thanking Father to direct their energies in the positive direction, so why not help the little sisters and brothers to do likewise. cooperating with the Welfare De- partment, FATHER, through this Department, will cooperate with them, and by so doing, they will be of help to each other, and be profitable servants of GOD, OUR FATHER. - "1 THANK YOU FATHER.

COLLECTIVISM RETARDS CIVILIZATION Dr. Friedrich Baerwald‘, Professor of Economics at St. Francis College, Brooklyn, and former judge of the German Civil Court, declared in a‘ I recent address before. a Knights of Columbus Council that unrestrained nationalism can lead only to the “collective suicide of civilization.” Christian social philosophy is the only avenue to world recovery and international reconciliation, said Dr. Baerwald. He continued: “As long as people adhere to the fallacious theory that self-interest is the best method of economic moti- vation, or that class warfare could ever achieve the common good, we will be kept busy running around in vicious . circles.” By the big children I e A restaurant without tips, said to.

Commonweﬂth_ F ederation P,LA.TF(‘)’RlVI COMMITTEE REPORT Preamble Production has been revolutionized Distri- bution on. the other hand is 2 still -conducted according to ancient tra- dition. ’I‘he result is that our eco- nomic order, in which modern tech- nique is coupled to a relic from the past, is grossly inefficient “and fails utterly to serve -the interests of the people.’ , A‘ " This is not fantasy. It is clear that‘ the great major- ity of the people, the =Worker, the farmer, and the professional men, must organize _for ‘ independent ec- onomic and political action, not merely endeavor to replace the ob- solete profit system ‘by one more efficient, but also to protect their economic interests and living stand- ards while the -present system en- dures. ‘ We urge, ‘therefore, that all who believe that present conditions are unjust and intolerable, unite‘ ion the following minimum program of im- mediate action. _ A ” ‘ 1 Platform 4 1. We favor production for use for all and the abolition of the prof- , it system. 2. We favor public «ownership and operation of natural resources, pub- lic utilities, munition plants, basic industries, and the establishment of state banks as well as Federal own- operation of national banks, and to that end Congress reassent and put ‘in practice its V right to coin money and" regulate the value -thereof. 3. We favor the payment of high wages not less than union standard, to all those at work, either in pub- lic_ ‘ or. private employment. ' 4. We declare that every worker shall be protected‘ in his right to join a union of his own choosing. -Wepare opposed to the use of state military or police forces in the l breaking of farm or labor ~-strikes. .‘We favor outlawing the company llnion and the yellow dog contract. 5. We favor the immediate_ adop- ; no “Si°0KE1‘? wow tion of the bswank-Thomas and Fra- zier-Lemke billsfii-1 ,6. We favor moratorium legisla- tion to secure tenure for farmers and home owners. ‘ 7. We favor the graduated income tax effectively administered on large incomes, including incomes from all public "bonds, now tax ex- empt,-0 gifts, inheritances, and corpo- ration surpluses,‘ and a corporation franchise ‘a tax to provide for all necessary government and social services. ‘ . ._ » 0 8. We favor immediate payment of the soldiers”bonus by the Hat- man Plan or Marcantonio Bill, and a complete return to the fundamen- tal rights of veterans under existing statutes. ' 9. W_e are opposed A to AI,nerica’s‘ direct or indirect participation in any impending international con- flict. 10. We favor a constitutional amendment providing that the Su- preme Courts of the State or_ Na- tion shall not have power “to declare an initiative act, an act of the le - islature, or an act of Congress c-onstitwtiorial. _ a 11. We demand the full protection of civil liberties to American citi- zens, and specifically the repeal of the existing state criminal syndi- calism laws. 12. We favor ‘the abolition of tui- vtion fees in all public educational institutions, and demand legislation guaranteeing academic freedom and security of tenure for all. 13. We condemn the present old age pension plan based on destitu- tion and favor a state plan for per- sons fifty\ years of age -and over, based upon retirement from gainful occupation With the right to retain a home of value not to ‘exceed $5,- 000, until such time as Congress shall enact a more favorable old age pension bill. The obligation of the state -to provide money to pay old age pensions should be on a plane with any other governmental obligations. The funds for such pur- pose should be acquired by levying a business transaction tax of two per cent upon the entire gross dol- lar value of all business, commercial or ‘financial -transactions within. the State of Washington. S wash room ; resales The amount of‘ “the ‘pension’, and . the payment thereof should be defi- nite and certain, and in such sum as will render the, recipient inde- pendent during the declining, years of life, and in -no_ event -less than the equivalent of -sixty._dollars. per month. »We include in all these provisions the blind as well as the aged. 14. 1,250,000 acres of land in the Columbia River Basin, subject to reclamation by the completion of the Coulee Dam -should‘ be acquired by condemnation by’ the ‘State for reclamation and settle'mentspurposes as is permitted by amendment No. 9 of the Constitution of the State, so that the profit arising from the. use of public money shall insure to .the people and not to private in- dividuals, and tha-t said landhfmay be made the basi.s ‘of a productioii for use unit for -the unemployed and the people. ' '” 15. Medical care, medicine 7 and hospitalization should be made a governmental obligation.‘ " ' '16. We favor theiadoption of a uni-camoral legislature, with ._legis- lators to be paid by the year} Tacoma, Washington, October " 6, 1935. We don’t believe That Depressions are Necessary. NVe don’t believe -that War is Unavoidable.

GOOD HEALTH, GOOD VVILL and a GOOD APPETITE—Hearts _full of CMERRINESS , JOY, PEACE and HAPPINESS, with all SUCCESS and PROSPERITY. continually. That is’ why we can‘ say ‘No end to the Blessings,” for they are flowing so free for everyone. We can sing— we can enumerate and count Bless- ings by numbers apparently, but the great work of multiplication, there . are but a few who have come to this place in consciousness whereby they can work multiplication in reality scientifically and unselfish- ly. SCIENTIFIC MUILTIPLICATION we, as individuals, may apparently learn the Principle of Mathematics figura-tively, from a. mathematical point of view, it is a privilege and it is a Blessing to do so, but it is so much better when we can use the Principle of Mathematics scienti- fically and especially work the work of multiplication and also the work of addition from a scientific point of view. , ' ' . l. ' Men have sought to increase, to multiply and to demonstrate the Blessings of GOD, ‘but there are those who claim to be Followers of \CHRIST,‘ after the manner of Meta- physics of the scientific Teaching of JESUS, —yet if they cannot work scientifically the 'Principle of Mathe- matics from a material point -of view,‘ and put this Principle into actuality, there is something short on their part. .When we use these Words» in our‘ Composition, “So gmany Blessings you cannot count after multiplying from, them all,” millions to Decillions and decillions of Decillions, we are still in that state of expression to county the limitless Blessings, but as I have transposed one of Christendom’s ori- ginal Compositions which says, “Count your Blessings Name ‘them Que by one. Count your many Blessings, see what GOD has. done". f ‘ Saturday, April 4th, 1936. Oh! it" is anlexperience with us this Afternoon, we have transposed the Composition in reality, forthe reality of this Composition, through the transposition of it, we can de- cla're, “We*"’ cannot count -the many Bless- ings, GOD-—-A‘ -STRONG . TOWER - We cannot name them one by one,” for we have so many Blessings we cannot receive them all. Not only receive them, but we cannot even so much as see them all. If you be‘- ' lieve in the ALLNESS o_f GOD and the nothingness of matter, if you believe in the reality of’ the Crea- -tive Forces of Nature, as a Living. Factor in the hearts and lives of millions, this the expression of GOD’S Creation, with HIS Creative Forces of Nature mitless Blessings -more than your hearts and -minds could imagine. For this cause, men are marvell- ing at the great unfoldment of this PEACE MISSION MOVEMENT. Theycannot understand how success and prosperity forever remains with us. They cannot understand, yet it is fwritten: “The NAME of GOD is a strong Tower, and the Righteous run therein and are saved.” Since you have accepted of this MESSAGE and L have brought your bodies into sub- jection, you have entered into this place in éonsciousness where you must be successful and prosperous. You must be successful and pros- perous if you apply the Life and the Teaching of CHRIST to, your daily‘ actions and put into practice the scientific Teaching of JESUS, ac- cording to the Gospel. LIFTED ABOVE DEPR;E'SSION‘S ‘ The very Spirit of GOD'S PRES- ENCE will bring into ‘your exper. ience the FULLNESS of the ABUN- DANCE of every Blessing, in the fulfillment of the ‘Scripture: “Come unto’ME all ye that labor and are heavy-laden, and I will give you rest. Take MY Ydke upon your and learn of ME, for MY Yolze is easy and MY Burden is light,» and Thou shalt find rest -. for thy. Scull’ ’ . .' A expressly, will‘ It is a privlege to realize While bring into outer expression the li- \ tribulations, Saturday, :April 4th, 1936. _ V The Souls who, or which have been (burdened ‘through trials and through doubts and fears, through lack of sustenance for the body, coming through great tribulations, through the depressions . of our present day, and every other undesirable expression, when you shall have recognized GOD"S PRES- ENCE and lived according to same, then and there you will see a ‘mir- aculous change. Through this Re- cognition," you are LIFTED above depressions, you are lifted above lacks and wants and limitations, you are], lifted above adverse and undesirable conditions, “for greater is HE in you,” as the Blesser and the Saviour, than all other" expres-‘ sions -that might or would be against you, if it came by persistence. '4 THE POSITIVE, REAL AND TRUE , - Then I say, “There are so many I Blessings, you cannot count them all.” They are flowing free for every‘ individual, but to the contrary, if you live in mortal consciousness and continue to visualize and idolize the negative, the unreal such conditions will come to you. At the time of SUCCESS and PROS- ‘PERITY, when the Country in it- self all over was very, progressive above the senseof appearance of de- .. pressions and panics, etc., you would hear men say, “Money is scarce.” You would hear them say, “Times are _hard.’’ You would hear them say: “We have such a hard ‘time, to make ends meet.” They ‘sowed the seeds of poverty and depressions, they have since then been reaping the fruit of the same, until I came, but I came to_ W change your mind from visualizing and idolizing undesirable condtions, to cast, them from your consider- ation and not even allow them to touch’ your imagination as a living reality among this people, no longer imagining undesirable conditions, no longer observing undesirable things, but , observing ' vividly continually, the IPOSITIVE, the REAL and the TRUE_——the POSITIVE, and the REAL and the TRUE will come to you. This is a psychological TRUTH. ‘You yourselves with your ‘mental concentration on an object or an expression, will expressly‘ un- fold the mathematician’ of yourself V, as,” any individual and yourselves. and un-true,‘ The “SPOKEN WORD” through concentration will become to be a magnet and magnetic. You will attract it and draw it to you. ALL BLESSINGS AT YOUR DISPOSAL . Oh! it is a privilege. to realize we are attracting and drawing to ourselves and to others, all of these desirable Blessings, through visual- ization. We are bringing them into -materialization through POSITIVE concentration and through the con- scious recognition of the same, there- fore, we have at our fingertips every desirable Blessing for jhe sustenance of the body, for comfort and for convenience, and every de- sirable expression for yourfx Soul, your mind and your Spirit. I,‘\Ve are rejoicing because there is a Law—this Law has been un- earthed. It has come to the sur- face and has been put forth into expression, therefore, if you as in- dividuals, will use this Law, no long- er will you be in poverty, lacks and want and limitations, but to the re- verse, you will express the progres- siveness of the PROGRESSIVE, the success of the SUCCESSFUL and all of the desirable Blessings will be at your disposal through your conscious recognition of them. I recall composing that Song many years ago, when there were men coming around as Methaphys- iscians and other Representatives of the Metaphysical Field, yet stress- ing and visualizing hard times, lacks, _ wants and limitations, I stressed it vividly for their consider» ation and for others, the signific- ance of the recognition of the POSI- TIVE, and refusing to observe the negative. When I stressed it through the Composition and brought this MESSAGE out in the melody, “There are millions of Blessings," iEvery day they are multiplied by as many more.’-’ mathematically I reiterated the Com- position as a Message for the con- sideration of the intelligent, but still..within, I stressed it for the consideration of the illiterate. I manifested it for the insignificant and those who were supposedly ig- norant, that they-might observe the significance of I , therecognition. of " th'a.t__.which, is _Invisible_L Page 5 JUST BEHIND THE VEIL . I _ The Invisible things are just be- hind the veil. As soon as you RE- LAX your conscious mentality, they will be revealed and brought to the surface and exhibited; -the ABUN- DANCE of the FULLNESS that they might observe it. Even though many of MY Hearers were sup- posedly ignorant, I supplied their desires with food and with raiments, with houses and with shelter, with comfort and with convenience. This was a demonstration that was so far-reaching and convincing, they were obliged to believe it, (Now isn’t that wonderful?) when they had prayed for years and years for sustenance for the body, for susten- ance for the mind‘ as information, as Spiritual understanding and had not received it. Oh! it is something ' to consider. You had prayed for all of these Blessings, but had not received them, but when‘ I came and unfolded MY Mystery in their presence, I brought into them, and into their presence the ABUNDANCE for the body, the ‘Spirit and the Mind, therefore, they were convinced to believe “I AM that I AM.” Who chould help but believe, when their Prayers were heard and, answered. When ‘ they believed it sincerely, they further re- ceived the witness from other angles of expression, therefore, it was more further convincing to even other persons. Now isn’t that wonderful! Then I say, ’ U i “There are so many Blessings, You cannot count them)’. CONTACTING THE , CHRIST CONSCIOUSNESS Through visualization and stress- fullyv observing mentally the A- BUNDANCE of the FULNESS, automatically such expressions will come forth into observation. We are now observing visibly the A- BUNDANCE of the FULNESS, but firstly it was a mental picture. Be- cause of those things, not being ob- served by the conscious mind, nor the physical sight, it did not make them unreal nor untrue. They were REAL and TRUE even -though they were hid from you, therefore, as "soon as your mind contacted the CHRIST CONSCIOUSNESS, auto- matically by obedience, then and there, '.the _Myste'ry_, was revea_lcd.. {Page 6“" 3-The ‘Blessings camel, forth into ex- pression, then-‘others could, observe them, others were convinced to be- v lieve because ‘they had seen "as you received. Then- I say, “There are,‘ so many Blessings, You cannot count them, I D ’ ' Every day theyﬂare lnultiplied by asmany ‘mor .” But merely becoming to"-be aMathe- matician ‘from an educational» point of view, unless you can put your mathematics into practice andwork them out scientifically and use them in a practical way, your mathema- tical activities will profit you noth-‘ ing, but the Great WORKER of all ‘things, as the AUTHOR and the FINISHER, can and "will bring all of your mathematical, activities in- to practice, ‘if you will allow 'to. Through your concentration in. the POSITIVE direction and con- sciously observing the.’ materiali-. zation of Personification of PER- FECTION, GOD will bring,intoWna.- terialization, the desirable Blessings you’ have worked out mathemati- cally-for yourselves. ‘ RARABLE OF _ THE LIGHTNING , . _ , ..Oh! it is a privilege to live in this Recognition; ‘to DIAL in on» the.

PARABI;.1i:i,_ OF Emerald EYEV In the great‘ Pennsylvania Rail- road terminal in 'New York, a trav- eller, with laden arms, was hurry- ing from the concourse to the train gates. Swinging doors intervened. With a glance at his luggage, the traveller prepared to push open the door with his shoulder. But as he approached, the door swung wide of its own accord. . No human hands, had touched it. Puzzled, and a,bit awed, the man paused and turned to look, as hundreds of strangers do every day. That traveller did not realize that the mysteries of modern science were working for him. He had not noticed that, as he approached the door, he had passed through the light beams of an “electric eye,” thus releasing the mechanism that flung the door open for him. ' K In the. incident, familiar to tens of thousands of travellers, we see a parable of Providence and pray- er As we journey through life, we find doors opening, ahead of us all unexpectedly. Somebody has pre- pared our way. There is a Power at work for us and with us beyond our understanding. More mysterious- ly yet, that Power is affected. by human faith. ‘_‘Prayer moves the Arm that moves the world.” . —William T. .Ellis in “The Daily Argus,” Mount Vernon, N.

Thirty ‘thousand or more jobless -workers will participate, it is -said. Herbert Benjamin, national secretary of the National Unemployment Councils, made the announcement of the dem- onstration, after a conference With Congressman Marcantonio, of New York. Benjamin explained that the march is being planned as a protest against’ the Administration’s “sys- tematically and ruthlessly 1iquid.a*'- ing all federal relief activities.” When will the workers, employed ' and unemployed alike, begin to real- ize that in appealing to the Gov- ernment for relief they are going ‘to the wrong Mother Hubbard? Government’s cupboard is always “bare.” Government is not geared up to make money; the money it hands out in relief will sooner or later come out of the workers’ wages anyhow. Instead of hunger-marching and caterwauling, the workers should ’res_olutely get together to start up their own industries and to-finance themselves. They can do it. Labor .must learn to manage itself. The trouble has always been -that labor was willing to Work for others.

Qne thinks of the policemen of Los An- geles at Yuma performing the leg- endary task of St. Peter deciding who is to be turned back and who. is privileged to enter that bright Pacific Kingdom.

Longshoremen’s Union J’ under the leadership ‘of Harry Bridges, chair- man of the general strike, is the Spearhead of this advancing move- ment. ‘ V The great Northwest (Idaho, Ore- .‘ gon, Washington), is like a vast virgin empire and probably offers i greater economic opportunities to the newcomer than any other part of the world. It is a great empire of vast ideas. ‘ Upton Sinclair’s plan of “Produc- tion for Use” has not suffered neg- lect. The Commonwealth Federa- tion conducts the most enlightening radio program on economics this re- porter has heard. Witlrf special courses for lecturers and organizers in the field organizing all the pre- cincts in the state, and a press of its own and with successful candi- dates in the recent Seattle Municipal elections the Commonwealthers have inaugurated a most vigorous cam- paign’ for production for use. Dr. Townsend's old age revolving pension plan also has a vast section of enthusiastic supporters. Mighty /radio discourses from California keep the people informed of latest developments in Congress and on the Qoast. Signs in filling stations, grocery stores and restaurants de- clare, “We are one hundred per cent for the Townsend Plan.” A The Northwest, obtained («from « England by peaceable ’ agreement and without money, will one day raise a mighty voice in the affairs of the U. S. and the world. Seattle} Vancouver and the Puget Sound -Area and even the Alaskan "Coast, warmed by the Japanese current have a climate almost as ideal as that /of the California coast. Plans for a perpetual (Centennial) Exposition of the :Northwest by a it Mr. Perkins, a visionary architect, were launched this year. The expo- ' sition building shaped"-like a globe, containing the geography of the world surmounted upon a building greater -than the Empire State ed- ifice in New York is to be the smallest item in a vast plan which ' will completely revolutionize the , Northwest economically and finan- cially but will make‘ it the center of world commerce and industry. \ NSu'r1'ounding' the gigantic exposi- tion_e:bui1ding,. which will contain a true "SPOKEN, wean" vast auditorium ‘seating «upward of 7a hundred thousand people will be hundreds of twenty-acre tracts, one for buildings and offices for each .of the fraternal, non-profit and reli- gious organizations of the world. Free tickets and large graduated prizes will attract the world to come. ._ Increase through a form of Script called ‘fTillecuma” will draw commerce and labor. . The recently erected Peace Arch between the U. S. and Canada at Blaine, Washington to which Fa- ther Divine telegraphed a message, the proposed international agree- ‘ ment between owners and emplyees in the lumber industry, and the re- duced tariff agreement and the in- creased fellowship and resolutions ‘of ‘Peace and spread .of FATHER DIVINE’S International Righteous. Government Platform ' and Forums being‘ rapidly organized ‘ in the Northwest; and Canada indicate some of the international aspects of this vast plan. ‘ ‘ ' » Cooperative dairy, -fruit, and fur organizations are more extensively and solidly entrenched on the West Coast than in any part of the Uni- ted States. ’ Horace ~Greely’s most serious in- dictment of the capitalistic indus- trialized east, “Go west young man and grow up with the country,” probably instigated the progressive radical movement into the new and not yet saturated west. The I.W.W. disturbances and the strange new ideas and vast plans of transforma- tion and ending poverty are no doubt repercussions of. his doctrine. ."Ilhere is even hushed talk among politicians and members of aggres- sive movements of the Great West- ern Empire against the East. “The east has too much control in Washington,” they say. “The east is too rigid in its .political and finarfcial control,” another says. “The east tries to dominate the west in. finance and politics,” says an- other. “They prevent us from hav- ing access to European markets and they dictate to us our farm, com- merce and trade policies,” someone else says. ’ Senators Bone and Nye from the west instigated the Munitions inves- tigation. and have convinced the west, it was the eastern financiers and Capitalists that unwillingly 335°. 1.7 drew the rest of the country into war. , * Frasier and Lunke would counter-’ act ’ the destructive and negative policy of the Supreme Court, so westerners say. _’ ,,‘,Bor‘ah~ is an iso- tationist. ‘Walgren of Washington is against the Benders of, Wall Street and is for government own- ership and operation of the finan- cial system. Mr. Nordskog of Cali- fornia is a specialist on‘, this and strongly disfavors the Federal Re- serve (privately owned and manipu- lated) system. New Movements, new ideas, new understandings are springing up in the west and northwest. Peter Ivanoff insists for spiritual reasons, on carrying on his extensive and profound researches in his revolu- tionary Co-Motional Motion, Power increasing devices, in the north- west. , People are now speaking of a F Pacific Ocean civi1ization.\They pro- pose commercial investments and trade agreements with the island groups of the Pacific -and_, Asia. Some of them even speak of a number" of International settlements and a transformed, (evangelical) way of life on the islands of the San Juan group in Puget Sound. One even hears of the secret adminis- tration of a super-government with’ ramifications the ‘Cincinnatus group (said to be fascistic in nature) in Seattle. These and the Smith group (including a number of A. T. O.’s in the ‘Seattle city council) A were recently defeated. “Scandals of police department control of graft rings are only slightly mitigated. Ins the meantime the progressive west seeks Righteousness, Justice and Truth. » AN INTERESTING FACT England sent a lot of criminals she no longer wanted on her soil to Australia. (They were the early settlers of Australia. As soon as these criminals arrived in Australia they ceased to be criminals, because there was no object in being crim- inals against themselves.-They got together and formed appropriate laws. Penologists and ‘Sociologists should observe this simple lesson and officials should provide an en- vironment for all which would do .. away with crime. ‘~ exceeding great joy. the Angels expressed "their devotion .- . i,_ V -.

I have declared to the Authorities, I AM here to promote RIGHTEOUSNESS, TRUTH and JUSTICE, but if I would encourage crime by telling MY Believers, “you must not press a charge against Wicked men who are committers of crime,” fighting against Commonwealth My- self.. It is indeed wonderful, but we are here to get at the corruption and I AM setting a trap daily for the Wicked. ' ‘If they endeavor to keep it up, as they ;h’ave,_been' going, Ewe. will I would be automatically' The “SPOKEN WORD? see that there will be more behind the BARS than there are-today. It is indeed wonderful‘ Some of them do it for contempt, some of them do it to try to provoke the HOLY SPIRIT. It is indeed wonderful, but -we are here to get at it whereso-‘ ever it is, and I have cars out there, and all over the ‘City without keys in them, let them take them, and see if we don’t put them be- hind the BARS. It is indeed Won- derful! WICKED SEGREGATED FROM RIGHTEOUS These may be hard sayings, but "as we are Separaters and Segre- .gators, we segregate the wicked from the RIGHTEOUS. As I was saying the other day, yea, even to- day in reference to ;a. concern mak- a ing segregation, I said, “They should segregate, but what [should they seg- _regate, and how should they segre- gate? They should separate the wicked from the iRIG‘HTEiOUS.” Those who are committers of crime, dishonesty, incompetence, those who are untrue, unworthy, non-reliable and non-trusthworthy, they should be separated from the RIGHTEOUS in the fulfillment of the Gospel. Oh! it is something to consider. The parable of segregation be- tween the different Nations, is ‘but a parable, parably speaking of the Mystery of the great separation be- tween the wicked. Why should you be separ- ated from another person because of your complexion? ‘Such an ex- pression is to the extreme opposite to ‘RIGHTEOUSNESS, but when you -are wicked, naturally according to '-the Scripture, you should be sep- arated from the RIGHTEOUS and be not partakers of the RIGHT- . EOUS, neither ‘the RIGHTEOUS be partakers of your characteristics. .PR:OGRESSIVEN~ES~S OF. THE PROSPEROUS “Blessed is the man that walketh not in the counsel of the ungodly, nor standeth in the way of sin- ners, nor sitteth in the seat of . the scornful,,but his delight is in the ‘ Law of the LORD; and in ‘His Law doth he meditate day ' an’d night. And he shall be like a tree planted by the rivers 073 water, that bringeth forth his RIGHTEOUS and the‘ V ‘ fruit in his season; hispleaf also _ ,‘S.a;ﬁ11‘dEl.y, April 4th, 1936. "shall n-ot wither, and whatsoever he doeth sha1l"prosper.” Is not this an outward expres- sion- of' the fulfillment of that Scripture? The progressiveness of the prosperous you can see openly reflected. We are daily manifest- ing ‘SUCCESS and PROSPERITY, by living Evangelically—by walking not in the counsel of the ungodly, nor standing in the way of the sin- ner, by refusing to be partakers of their folly and their gossips, etc.» When you are subject to the'differ- ent gossips of those‘ who gossip daily, in the way of folly, you are also lowering your vitality. You are directing your energy in a destruc- tive direction, not only destructive to and for others, but it is destruc- tive for yourself as an individual. You are destroying your energy foolishly instead of using your energy and your mentality con- ’ structively. GOD EXPRESSES SCIENTIFICALLY Take these thought to consider- ation. If you walk in the counsel ’of the ungodly and stand in the. way of the sinner, and continue to gossip negative things, you will be partakers of the Wicked and also‘ the weakness of the wicked. You will weaken yourselves mentally and "Spiritually. You will weaken your- selves physically -as well as mentally and Spiritually.» You cannot ad- vance physically, .even if you con- tinue- to participate in gossip, and walk in the Way of -the ungodly-and » stand in the way of the sinner, but because you" have been taken out of the wicked—’-from among them, etc., ‘ refusing to participate in gossip, refusing to their counsel and standing in their Ways, the Spirit of ‘SUCCESS and. PROSPERITY _ has been with you. You have become to be successful, _ prosperous, healthy and happy, for‘ your energy has increased and your mentality has also developed. It has also given you the VICTORY \ over difficulties. JGOD, Himself, will express scientifically within you. VICTORY ‘OVER. A SEENIING LIMITATION , Just look at the progress of the ‘Spirit of GOD as . it ' is unfolded! success‘? = ~ and PROSPERITY, « CH:E}ALTH7,\a.ntI~ <i_,12s;I§i=xNi::.s.s, Panes indulge in walking in? Saturday, April 4th, lallﬁ. gand, JOY and plenty,, the ABUN- DANCE of the FULLNESS from every angle. Al_l of these visible expressions are but the reflections of that which is within,.by living ac- cording to the Teaching. Walking (not in the counsel of the ungodly, nor standing in the way of the sin- iner, nor sitting in the seat of the scornful, but delighting,’each of you being one who would delight in the - Laws of the LORD. Now just think of it—you may notice a person who is talking nega- tive talk, acting negatively one to- wards the other, they are losing their energy and abusing their pow- er. There are many of them who cannot even hold a position because of the loss of energy and because of the dullness of their mentality, but if you live according to this Teaching, the very Spirit of MY ' PRESENCE will inspire you with WISDOM, will inspire you with COURAGE and ZEAL, will cause you to be persistent in your am- bition, will also give you the VIC- TORY over every seeming limita- ation, for GOD within you is greater than all undesirable conditions. Now you will notice closely here- after, those who oppose you, which is to say, those who oppose ME‘, you find them going back. They are falling short ., of SUCCESS and PROSPERITY. Many -of them are losing their business, their profes- sions, trades, gifts and calling. They cannot even demonstrate education- ally as they have been. They can- not express themselves from an edu- cational point of view, even though they call themselves intelligent, Why is it? It is because they are objecting and neglecting to such a great Salvation.‘ WISDOM BELONGS TO GOD ’ WISDOM belongs to_ GOD, even though it may be called “human intelligence.” Such ‘an expression tjransirnittted‘ to humanity through mankind from one to the other, these expresions of human intellig- ence, belong to GOD, hence, GOD ' , will attract them and draw them to HIM, and'to those of you who will Awork in harmony with such an ex- pression" of human “ intelligence for ~ the common. good of the people and willtnot be se1fi‘sjh.’, This isanother ‘ love The “SPOKEN WORD” expression of the Mystery Great ‘Separation. _ GOD is calling for His Education through and by the human intellect,- as it may be termed,.cal1ing for it to come forth into expression, to be His REAL Servant. All of your of the ,, . human skill and ability, as it. may ” be termed,- will eventually come to ME and to -those who will live in harmony with the’ CREATOR ..that gave 1t. It is the same as I was saying the other day, SUCCESS and PROSPERITY seeks harmony as water seeks its level. WISDOM, KNOWLEDGE and UNDERSTAND- ING, all of these qualities are seek- ing the CREATOR of these Attri- butes and Qualities as well as the water seeks its level. « ALL GLORY GOES TO GOD Men are losing their human in- tellect. They are becoming to be confused with it, having nervous break-downs, etc. Why is it? It is because they have not given the Gloryiand the Honor to ‘GOD. When your human intellect desires to come to GOD in harmony, in union, and in faithfulness to the MAKER, you will pervert it by your negative and perverted thinking, ideas and opin- ions, etc., and direct it in a different direction. GOD will take your hu- man intelligence and give it to others Who will serve HIM. The person who buried his talent in the ground——now notice that mystery- why is there more and more WIS- DOM, KNOWLEDGE and UNDER- STANDING coming forth into ex- pression in this direction? It is be- cause of the harmony and unity of Mind, of AIM and of Purpose, to and serve GOD with your whole heart. By so doing, the very Blessing GOD has sent out through the Ages to and through humanity for each and all mankind will come in harmony seeking the very Fount and the Offspring of it. i LOVE WILL DRAW OIWN CREATION | Oh! it is a privilege to realize-- “It takes steel to draw steel.” Now isn’t that wonderful! Love will draw its own .»Creation,. . . will draw all of ‘His Creation with its fruit into subjection harmoniously. Oh! it is indeed wonderful; Thus, MY Love is’ attracting and drawing PEACE n Page 21 attracting and drawing WISDOM," KNOWLEDGE and UNDERSTAND- ING. It is attracting and drawing all DOMINION and all AUTHOR- ITY. It is attracting and drawing all SUCCESS and all PROSPERITY, all HEALTH and all HAPPINESS and all of the desirable Creation of your MAKER. I say, “Water seeks its 1eve1,and all of these expressions lastly men- tioned, they are something like a stinging nettle in water. You may - scatter them, if you wish to, but so long as they are in the water, they will get back together. GOD will draw HIS WISDOM,_ KNOWLEDGE, HIS UNDERSTANDING, He will draw HIS PEACE, HIS JOY, HIS HEALTH and HIS HAPPINESS, HE‘ will draw HIS [SUCCESS and PROSPERITY and all of HIS de- sirable Attributes and Qualities to- gether for you—“To him that hath, it shall be given.” Why shall it be given the same thing that he has? Because he has it. It is indeed won- derful! That something must‘come to him who has it, because it will attract it and draw it to him. Now isn't that wonderful? We have HAPPINESS. We have PEACE. We have IOY and we have PLEASURE. We have SUCCESS and we have PROSPERITY. We have WISDOM. We have KNOWL- EDGE and we have UNDER- STANDING. We have LOVE and we have KINDNESS. We are draw- ing each and all of them together by the thousand-fold, for each atom, yea, each atom of a. germ of these expressions will attract and draw other atoms of the germs of those expressions to it. ~ LIKE ATTRACTS LIKE Now just look at you. this remark the Throng that was filled with‘ the Transmission of GOD'S Love, burst forth in cheers.) All of your devotion will attract de- votion. Your faithfulness will at- tract faithfulness. Your obedience will attract obedience. Your love will attract love. Your kindness will attract kindness. Your peace will attract peace. Your wisdom will attract wisdom. /All of these Words which I have lastly spoken, are Evangelical.

V“ VV I Saturday, April _4th, L I A Portrait . of" FATHER DIVINE» I The current issue of the “Sermon Digest,” a magazine for preachers, contains, among a number of other significant messages, the following remarkable 'Word picture of the Christ, which must seem to all fol- lowers of Our Father Divine a por- trait of Him as we know Him and see Him daily. Except, of course, that the Word “man,” even if it begins with a capital “M” can never be applied to Him. He has the appearance of a man; that is all. _ The sermon, from which this er’:- tract is taken was preached by Dr. A. C. Dixon at the "Winona Lake Bible Conference in 1921. He evi- dently painted this portrait of a Life lived in the guise of hu- manity as though it could ‘never again be duplicated}. It has been duplicated. The WORD is ’made flesh and dwells’ among’ us——and » day by day we behold HIS GLORY, FULL OF GRACE AND TRUTH: Said Dr. Dixon: “Let us imagine, 'if we can, a man in this world, who is truth in- In him is all truth; and I mean by truth, reality without sham—~no pretense. There is not a tinge of unreality about \him. A man like that would be the glory .of the nation. Then imagine an- other man in whom all light centers. I mean by light, knowledge, light on every subject in the universe; and if“ you could find a man like , that, he, too, would be the glory of his nation. Then look for an- The “SPOKEN wonm —physical life, intellectual life, spir- itual life, and all the life you can think of incarnate‘ in this one man. He, also, would be the glory of his nation. Thenfind another man in whom. all wisdom is centered, not .simply knowledge, but_ how to use it. He never makes a mistake, nev-- er acts foolishly.- He would be the glory of his ‘nation. Find another man in whom’ all power is centered, and..he would be the glory of his nation. Then another man in whom all love is centered, love that is pure, love that is not flecked with lust; everything that is lovely and of good report centers in him. He would be the glory of his race. Now find if you can, a man in whom all these things are centered ——all truth, all light, all life, all wis- dom, all power, all holiness, and all love, and you would say that a man in whom all of these were incarnate was not only the glory of earth, but he is the glory of ‘Heaven’. Find -a man in ‘whom all goodness, all virtue, all purity, everything that is good centers, and you have the glory of all worlds. Yet we have just approached the glory of the ' Cross, I have been describing to you our Lord Jesus Christ. He is the only One who ever came" into this world of whom it. could be said, “In Him is all Truth, all Light, all Life, all Wisdom, all Power, all Holiness and all Love.” These things incarnate in -Christ make Him not only the glory of earth but the glory tof‘Heaven. Yet you have not touched the glory of the Cross. I V have just described in this faint, feeble way the glory of the incar- nate God. “Let us go a step_ further and’ Page 23 see what the Cross means. If you can find a man in whom all truth is centered, not contending for the truth, but dying for those in error, you have reached another degree of glory. If you can find a man in whom all light is centered, light not displaying itself, but dying for those in darkness; if you can find a man in‘ Whom all wisdom is cen- tered, not wisdom admiring itself -but dying for the ignorant; if you can find a man in whom allilife is centered, not protecting itself,‘ as 21. coward would, but giving itself for those who are dead; if you can find a»man in whom all holiness is cen- tered, holiness not cultivating itself," though that is a good thing, but holiness giving itself on the altar, - dying for the unholy and the im- pure; if you can find a man that has all power, not exerting itself, but willing to be weak, restraining itself,’ that it may carry out its noble purpose of sacrifice for sin; if you can find a man that is all love, not love simply enjoying it- self, but love on the altar, love dying, love giving itself to the Cross in order that the unlovely might be saved; if you can find all these, you have some little conception of what the Cross of Christ means. “Now let us put all into one—— 0 God, help us to realize it!—all Truth, all Light, all Life, all Wis- dom, all Power, all Holiness, all Love, Vincarnate one Man, who gives Himself for the untruthful, for the darkened, for the dead, for the weak, for the unholy, for the unlovely—-and you have some con- ception of what the Cross of Jesus Christ is in its deeper meaning.” other man in whom ‘life is centered i KOCH .‘ Z ~“ I FLOOR COVERING —‘ GU Bed Sheets, Pillow C EASTER VALUES AT DEPARTMENT STORES, INC. n . 132 West, lZ'5 Street, New York City» S UPTOWN’S LARGEST DEPARTMENT STORE .

"The following ex- cerpts from the article “Apostle of Brotherh"ood”' will be refreshing to read in comparison with the press» A dispatches’ that‘ would lead 7 one to» almost believe that the Japanese were all ‘lovers of war and con- quest; , . ” ‘ . « “Within the “last few years the Toyohiko Kagawa has a. comet ' across the.

FATHER'S MESSAG " AT THE LBANQUET TABLE STONE RIDGE ‘EXTENSION, STONE RIDGE, N_. Y. 3 FRIDAY {AFTER- -NOON: APRIL THIRD, 1936-— ‘ A,D.F.D. ’ TIME: 12:30 P.M.. « After a good night’s rest in the mountains, we awakened in the beautiful Sunshine of a lovely ‘balm-by day, with many beautiful experiences ahead of us. The first one, however, was 7 the Banquet in the beautiful Dining Room, which was light and sunny and most attractive, ' with" so many good things to eat. Some of the partynhad the good i pleasure of gracing the magnificient Hotel, with their presence. This Hotel is ‘one of the latest Divine Es- . tablishments and is located in a very section. It’ is ~modernly. ‘equipped and has all improvements. restricted It is located in Kingston, about Fif- teen miles more or _less from the Stone Ridge Mansion. The’ group of children all met at the Stone~_Ridge Extension, for their Morning Ban- quet, It was here around the table that FATHER spoke. concerning the Spirit, how it. has been trying, to perfect itself in this direction, and locationally as well as otherwise . . . This was just a little table. talk, but these Words of Wisdom, though few, are precious. They are also inform- ing,‘ for the“ thoughts herein con- veyed are unfamiliar to the major- ity of the people ,and especially those who are termed Religious. They know a very little‘ about the history of Religion.» A-L . ' * T ‘ After this beautiful little Talk,’ FATHER took us over to survey some more Blessings, which HE will publicly make known to His Child- ren, in ‘His OWn.Time. A ‘M is ‘ There are so many visible hnd in’-. visible Blessings, that FATHER continued to sing over and over the -little melody below, and incidentally this record was taken. Thank You ' FATHER. It k * f"Blessings flowing free, Blessings ‘flowing free, - No end to the Blessings,‘ Blessings flowing free for all. “Ann the Word,”‘she came up to this - part of the Country also, didn’t she? When she came to this Country, she came up there. the Spirit has been trying toibring about PERFECTION in this direc- tion for quite some time. Mr.‘ Madison speaks: FATHER: we are just across the River from an Instituti-on—somewl_1ere' between Highland and‘ Kingston that this other Institution‘ used to have all '_. Religious people to meet—a place that we looked at a long time ago. "It was just opposite this side.” FATHER remarks: This Country has been inspired and Gracecl with the Honor of the ‘Spirit, by Spiritual Revelations for years back. Each Revelation or Inspiration was trying to bring out the light of PERFEC- TIO_N, but no doubt, each Unfold- ment drew a little nearer to PER‘-' ‘ FE‘CTION than the other; so it is a wonderful thought to see the way it ~ works ‘out, and Brigham Young,‘ he also passed from this State-—-the State of New York. He was s_th‘e, .1579-33. It looks as though it p t Page 4 lFou.nder of the Mormon Movement. When i they settled in’ Utah, Salt Lake City, he became to be the Gov- ernor, I believe it was in that City. It is indeed wonderful! BRINGING PERFECTION TO FRUITION _ , . J The Spirit is working out some- thing, and it ‘is bringing it along through Legality, to bring about ’RIGI-ITEOUSNESS, TRUTH and JUSTICE in and on the Material A-‘Plane. If it" is not accomplished in one, it will be in another. We will . not be discouraged nor refrain from our endeavors, until we shall have ‘brought PERFECTION, to fruition among the‘people even on the Ma- terial Plane. So it is a wonderful thought. About One hundred and fifty years ago, when. “Ann the Word,” came to this Country, whose name was in mortal consciousness other than “Ann the ‘Word,” but the name — was changed because she was inspir- ed by the Word of GOD, and she was awakened to the state in con- sciousness from the early days, where she thought marriage in the sex- ual way was not honorable nor Holy in the ‘Sight of GOD. So you_ can plainly see, ‘it is the same spirit working as it has wrought to some degree in others, but GOD in the last days would bring out PERFEC- TION through and by the True and Faithful, -and it is following -right in line with the "course they traveled geographically——not only mentally ‘and 'Spiritua1ly, but geographically. I never thought of it until after I came up and settledin this part. “ANN THE worn)" INSPIRATION TO OTHERS If you read the book “Of All .Rel;igions,”' you read where “Ann the Word,” did settle up near Alba- ny and practically everything Wei are stressing and teaching personal- . ly now in this PEACE MISSION, they stressed it or advocated it, to‘ —. some degree. ‘ The brothers even though they were married, they were supposed to be only as brothers to those to whom they were married, . and the sisters were supposed to be the same, which perfected the clean- lineﬂ of the mind and, the man in fthe Advancement’ of the KINGDOM of HEAVEN. It is indeed wonder1’ul!_ “~ Althoughbecause of her failure to The t‘S_POKEN WORD?’ adhere to the fullness of the Teach- ing of her own Inspiration, she did not continue and bring PERFEC- TION tofruition, but the Inspiration has never ceased to gowon inspiring others from one degree of Grace ‘to another, inspiring and awakening them to live .accordin_g to the origin- al Inspiration given to “Ann the Word.” It is indeed wonderful! It’s such a. wonderful Blessing. Cooperation and Courage A -beautiful example of, cooper- ation comes to light, in the story of two young law students, one blind, the other without arms, who have just ‘broken into’ the news. The ‘matter, came to public attention when Thomas Howard ‘Overton, thir- ty one years old and blind, was an- nounced as the “high-ranking scholar” of the Freshman class of 175 members at the ‘Chicago-Ken College of Law. . ‘ When the honor was announced Overton insisted that part of ' the credit must be given to Stanley A. Kasprzyk, thirty-two years of age, I and deprived of his arms. “He was my eyes,” said Overton, “and I was his arms.” They met by chance on their first day in school when the armless student guided his blind classmate down a ﬂight of steps. Overton could carry books, but not read them. Kasprzyk could read, .but not carry books. The logical association developed by mutual consent, Over- ton related. .“I take notes in class with a punch on a Braile form board,” he said. “Out of class Stanley reads to me and I transcribe my notes on a. typewriter .for him. For each of us it is just a matter _of working harder to overcome a physical handi- cap." . _ ‘ Cooperation and courage make a good, recipe for living—-whatever the circumstances. And, as always, there is a word of Jesus to make the matter clear——-“-Bear ye one an- other’s burdens, and so fulfill the Law of Christ.” ' DO NOT PRAY_ that what you wish may come to pass, But rather that the W111 of -GO may be . ' Done in You. ‘ I ‘ Tuesday, April 7th;,-_19sg{ 5 New. World-‘wide Radio Service For U. S. -Gov- ernment Washington, April 1.——The state‘ Department revealed plans today for the creation of a globecircling radio news service of its own, intended ‘to -keep American diplomatic and con- sular officials completely abreast of 2 concern developments here that them. Wilbur J. Carr, Assistant Secre- tary of State, said that a test serv- ice to Paris, Berlin, Rome and Ge- neva would be extended to eight other large foreign cities. Short-wave receiving apparatus is now ent/, route" for Sydney, Calcutta, Santiago, London, Buenos Aires, Rio de Janeiro, Lima and Cairo. In addition‘ to the twelve receiv- ing _stations on the governmental news chain, United States naval ra- dio facilities are to be utilized in China and the Panama Canal Zone. ‘ The news broadcasts are to be picked up .by naval vessels where- ever they are stationed. The news bulletins, ‘averaging 1,500 Words, will be compiled and , edited by Howard Bucknell of the Division of Current Information, and broadcast every week night at 7 o’clock from/, the Arlington station. GLEANIN GS FROM OUR MAIL The magazine is so. -wonderful, the lessons seem to fit in with every problem, and our great joy is to carry it with us and read to the neighbors. ‘ A little boy of six we have taught to say, “THANK YOU FATHER.” While other children who were sup- posed to have infantile paralysis are still unable to walk, he, a victim at the same time, is walking. There are moments when his legs, seem to give way and he falls, but, noth- ing fearing, he rises and plods along. Many see him and are amaz- ed that he can walk; he looks -at them and says, ‘I say, THANK‘ YOU FATHER.’ Again I rejoice that FATHER im- pressed me“ to subscribe, for many will share with ‘us the bounty. ’ THANK YOU FATHER.- Yours in HIS Love, " , vI-Iap,piness '.Io_y.;, * .1catters1vl11e,f Va. Tuesday, April 7th, 1936 . The “SPOKEN. worm” 1 (By CARNEGIE W. PULLEN) “I am the NEW DAY, and I come To you pure ‘and unstained, Fresh from the hand of GOD. Each day a precious pearl to you is given _ That you must string upon the silver thread of Life. * * * Congress has been. investigating I the source and destination of the renewal of the Townsend Old Age Pension organization. At any time now, Congress may be moved t0 vote twenty thousand dollars to in- vestigate FATHER DIVINE’:S Peace Mission and ‘Righteous Government Movement, “to discover where FA- THER DIVINE gets I-II'S‘ money?” :1: as as _ ~ California is the Kingdom of Heaven (geographically and climat- -ically spea‘king) because it is part of Beautiful Earth——brut the citi- A zens make an un-right-use-ness of that lovely land of flowers. When one thinks of the corrupt Motion. Picture people, there, of Tom Mooney conﬁned to a, living ,toIn')5‘ long after the principal state witnesses signed affidavits that the District‘ Attor- ney’s office had bribed them to give perjured testimonies; when one thinks of the fact -that if you are ‘without money or without employ- ment, you are barred at the bor- ders of this Heaven, one sees the use man makes of GOD'S abun- dance. If you even become unem- ployed after a short ’stay in -the state, you are subject to being ar- rested, placed in a box car and shipped beyond the borders—-into or onto the land of any other state. Other states may soon retaliate. ‘ at an we Congressman Walgren of Wash-. ington stated that if you want to find out whom a Congressman is serving, uncover the source of his campaign funds. Find .out where the contributions come from, and you will know wvherethe graf-t goes. * it . at Congress thinks it can . discredit __,;the _'l‘ownsend ‘Old Age .gPension . Wrigley Co. ‘says, '-understandable movement by exposing the distribu- tion of its funds in the form of high salaries. Congress would be pretty well discredited if the source ofthe campaign funds of its “- members were exposed. =l= =1‘ * What would it be if . the unem- ployed were not permitted - to cross into any, as they are_ not permitted to enter California. Soon Counties would start the same practice——and cities, even as Los Angeles started it. That would be a drastic state of Fascism. a: us a: When FATHER stated, “Relax- ation is t-he great essential,” editors of “Time” referred to it as “Divine Babble)’. These sa.me editors, who dramatize memorable . scenes from the news in the regular March of Time broadcasts, say nothing about “babble” when the announcer for “Leam to Re- lax. Wrigley’s. Spearmint Gum will help you.” If one learns to re- lax in the Consciousness of the Presence of GOD—a mystery not comprehensible to the.» editors of Time—-then he does not need Wrig- ley’s to help him. This mystery may not be com.preli'ensible to the editors of such a literate publica- tion as Time, but it is’ perfectly and operatable to countless thousands of day laborers, house workers, mechanics, teachers, engineers, and other skilled and professional people. A Learn Relaxation, the great es- sentialL——no one kl'll0Ws how greatly neuresthenics, insomniacs and others suffering from nervous or mental distress have and will appreciate the benefits of the miraculous bless- ing of relaxation! * =16 =6‘- “STORM-TOSSED,” a drama for modern world conditions by Rev. Daniel Aloysius Lord, xs. J. (Jesuit), is “an attempt to dramatize the socialized ideals. of the papal en-— cyclica.ls.” Its moral is that the “solution of A economic troubles lies 4 \ . in the “revolution of which Jesus Christ ispthe leader . . . so "Red . . . ..that it has‘ never been tried yet.” The play has been showing at «St. Louisand Gillespie, , Ill., in Com- munist Communities.

He continued: I “Man has grown more slowly than the institutions he created. His’ intelligence has remained too small. , “The triumphs of our. intelligence have proved disappointing’, but sci- ence should not be held responsible for the evil that has come -to men. We as a people were not influenced I by a consideration of the highest interests of humanity, but by our. appetite, illusions, theories‘ and ‘dreams. Science was only a dumb instrument of the human will. “Science does not consist exclu- of the ‘ conquest of matter. Man is the most important.’ We are the victims of the backwardness of the sciences of life over those of _ matter. “Scientific research should be in- spired today _by‘a new ideal, the _Will to make‘ man mas_ter of himself. , fTliere‘ can be no other builder of‘ man .=than rhi'msel‘f,u and to. build 1a The "SPOKEl\I worm’? new civilization, imagination, intel- ligence and moral strength of pur- pose are necessary. “We must realize that the ulti- mate purpose of civilization is not the invention of ‘machines and the progress of laboratory science, but- the development of the human per- son.

Healing GOD Within In line with the straightforward toward peaceful, dy- namic living, what is called “Jewish Science” records its progress through fourteen years as a distinct move- ment. It is described as “essential- ii ly an education in personal prayer, or affirmations, through which man contacts God in himself and by means. of which he is sustained, re- stored and healed.” Rabbi Morris Lichstenstein is the organizer and. leader of the move- ment which is known“ officially as “The Society of Jewish Science." The New York World-Telegram in its department of religious news states: I - “That the movement has become‘ a.= genuine some ‘in’ .lJewry_, ‘is “av de The ' VWi11_ Tuesday, April 71:11, from the fact that», its adherents ‘now number in the thousands, its membership. extending to all sec- tions of the country, its literature circulating throughout the world. The ten fundamentals of Jewish Science, when used in daily living, ‘ turn worry into faith, gloom into joy, irateness into calmness, hate into love, fear into courage, envy in- I to contentment, and hurry into a slow-down-the-rhythm. Two of the three healing silences during every religious service are devoted toef- ficacious Jewish ‘Science affirma- tions, the‘ third to a personally worded prayer or ‘affirmation. Testi- monial evening is the first Friday in 3 each month. T Maintaining that divinewhealing. has always been part, and parcel of Judaism, Dr. Lichenstein, in ex- pounding Judaism in the light of . Jewish “Science, has maintained» that it is not necessary to worship at foreign shrines, nor is it necessary for the Jew to change his faith as a. therapeutic measure. The need for personal healing prayer is and can be filled in Judaism, he says, which provides all the spiritual“ re- p quisites. Realizing A that the Jewish people‘ are a highly emotional and ‘nervous race, and today more than ever in need of the steadying influence. of their own faith, [Dr‘. Lichenstein has. taught what he feels to be a sci- entific mode of living and a scien- tific method of prayer. Jewish ‘Sci- ence is -essentially an education in personal prayer, or affirmations, through which man contacts God in himself, and by means of which he is divinely sustained, restored and healed.

GOD must be a realitgto you, for you to get the VICTORY over undesirable condi- tions. ‘ VICTORY OVER EVERY CONDITION If there is an affliction, disease or adverse or undesirable _condition wherein your consideration, MY Spirit and MY Mind, MY Life and‘, MY Love cannot overcome, it is an open,‘ expression‘ that MY: PRES"- __Tlie “SPOKEN WORD?’ ENCE and GOD in Whom you are trusting," is not PERFECTION in your consideration. If GOD is PER- FECTION in your consideration, and if you are whole-heartedly trusting in HIM as the CREATOR, there is not a condition“ that can arise in your conscious consideration by all of your skill or ability or under- standing, such as may be given, that HE cannot give you the VICTORY over such’ conditions. Oh! it is won- derful!~—You are knowing within yourself, this Recognition gives VICTORY over all undesirable con- ditions, whether it be mental, phys- S ‘ical ’or Spiritual.- The most severe condition or undesirable condition imaginable, the Spirit of MY PRES-. ENCE, with your right concept and the recognition of the OMNIPO- TENCE of it, can *and'will give you VICTORY over th se conditions, for you have 1ifted’GOD in your consi- deration as PERFECTION far above all undesirable conditions, hence, GOD to youthere and then, is OM- NIPOTENT;¥'not until then, can you really see,GOD to be OMNIPO- TENT, but‘ when you do see GOD to be OMNIPOTENT in reality, there is not an affliction or sickness or disease or ailment or complaint, whether it is corruptible or incor- ruptible that MY SPIRIT‘ cannot give VICTORY over, in your consi- deration. Why? Because you have lifted this Recognition‘ above all li- mitations and you have recognized GOD as the ‘INFINITE, OMNIPO- TENT and OMNIPRESENT. GOD‘ ALL POWERFUL y . Now isn’t that wonderful? This Recognition must be established "in your consideration, stamped in your memory once and forever. When this is accomplished, you can RELAX your conscious mentality and STILL yourself, automatically through the "RELAXATION of your conscious mentality. M - ' _ Just think of certain conditions individuals can get themselves in, through thinking negative concern- ing themselves and others; through thinking limitations concerning themselves or himself and another, by limiting himself to the versions of men, as they have thought con- cerning him.'Now isn’t that wonder-‘ ful ?' But when you rise above those limited concepts concerning your-, Tuesday; April '7itli,,1“9_36,e self and concerning your MAKER,- then and’ there, you have the VIC- TORY, and not until then will you have it. You will continue to get something to come in opposition as ., a test for you, .until you shall have arisen in consciousness whereby you can RELAX whole-heartedly and rely on the FUNDAMENTAL, knowing ‘GOD in you as an individual, is VICTORY far above all .conditions— OMNIPOTENT far above the migh- ty Power that may be, GOD to you, is ALL POWER; ALL POWERFUL, ALL MIGHT. CONTACTING THE CHRIST CONSCIOUSNESS Now there is a physical condition or an affliction, sickness or disease where your physical system can get‘ in with your consideration, where you cannot get- deliverance from, your GOD in your con‘sid_eration , is not OMINIPOTENT andis not ‘ALL there is, in reality. ‘That something‘ or that expression to. you is ‘PER- FECTION, therefore, the imperfect state of consciousness and your im- perfect idea concerning your MAKER as being imperfect or limited could not give you the VICTORY over that condition, see! That is the mys- tery, but when you raise your con- sciousness to contact the CHRIST CONSCIOUSNESS and realize GOD is far above all conditions, all cir- cumstances and. every other expres- sion, whether it be good, evil, pos- itive or negative, when you see GOD to be PERFECTION far above every other expression, when you hold yourself in this Recognition and apply it to all adverse and un- desirable conditions, matters not how severe they may be, then and there, GOD will automatically work through you and will prove '-to you conclusively, HE in you, is far above all undesirable conditions. SIMPLY-BELIEVING BRINGS HEALING If there is an affliction or dis- ease which can hold you in bondage to it, to believe such affliction, sick- ness or disease can keep you down and MY Spirit and MY “MIND could not give VICTORY over it, you are limiting GOD and GOD is not PER- FECTION in\ your consideration, in reality. “ There is not a condition, whereby -an individual couldrget‘ in- that » MY" ~"S7_PIR:IT" and N13}: 9 the Prize . . . - will obtain the Prize through faith, But April 7th, 1936» cannot. raise him from, if it could , , K MY ‘SPIRIT and MY MIND. would not be OMNIPOTENT, MY not, SPIRIT and MY MIND would not be ‘JQMNIPOTENT, for it would not understand, neither have WISDOM . ‘to get you out of such conditions.

A Spirit or in the physical system to arise, where MY SPIRIT could not I “ lift you from those conditions. Now isn’t that wonderful? BY FAITH THE PRIZE I:S OBTAINED By this Recognition, all conditions, whether they be physical mental or Spiritual, could be overcome, if they are negative and undesirable. Why? Because you have made GOD REAL in your life, by. making HIM REAL in your consideration and in your consciousness. GOD has become to be a Living Reality in your physical system, and in all things that con-, cern you. Now isn’t that iwonderful? It is all by (faith that you obtain in other word_s, you and not merely by sight. I need not say more. I believe I have said ‘enough. I have -LIFTED GOD in your consideration from the depths of humility to the height of PERFECTION that GOD might bea Living Reality, exceedingly abun- dantly above all undesirable condi- tions. I thank you. - YOUR GIFT It, isn’t the thing that you give away, ‘ Or the price of the gift that mounts It isnft the words that your kind I lips say, _ -the - love in ydur heart that counts.

At the preview, James Stokley, as- sociabe director in ‘charge of the astronomical section of the Franklin Institute, did not confine his answer to the possibility of the moon’s ex- plosion. Asserting that studies of the sun led astronomers to believe that it was cooling ‘and that some billions of years hence the earth might be ‘too cold for habitation. Mr. Istokley suggested also ‘the possibility of the sun’s. becoming a nova, or “new” star, “in which case our descendants of that day probably won’t know what happened in the resultant wave of hea .” As the audience watched showers of meteors on the planetarium sky, the lecturer admitted that one simi- lar to the newly discovered Anteros, which came Within 1,500,000 miles of the earth in February, might do vast damage. He suggested, how- ever, that not too much uneasiness be shown in view of" the fact that as many as 20,000,000 meteors ap- proach the earth daily, with one seldom becoming a me='teorite.. The present demonstration, open to the ‘public daily next month, was . said to be the first of its kind to be offered at a planetarium in this country. V ‘ —New York Times.

One hopes that ‘heaven” was not’ trying to play an April Fool prank upon the inhabitants of the United. States; the celestial ges- ture may-- have been friendly; pos- sibly a friendlywarning. Be that as it may the fact is that this April first visitor from the skies struck the United States almost precisely at the spot marked as the exact. center of population of the nation. An Associated Press dispatch from Linton Indiana, dated April 1, states: '_ A meteor almost scored a bulls- eye on the monument erected to mark the center of population of the country. ' A. Kramer, a rural. mail car- rier, searching the countryside 'wi‘th~ hundreds of other Linton citizens to‘- day for the cause of the flash and the explosion which shook and dam- aged houses, found the crater hole, six feet square, half a mile east of, the monument. Professor C. A. Malott of Indiana University was notified and. will make an effort to recover the me- teor. He said finding of the crater of a sky visitor is unusual.

Hurrys r Professor Gerard Kuiper, a young. astronomer from Holland, «while vis- iting Perkins ‘ Observatory” of Ohio ‘ Wesleyan, and» Ohio State’ Univer- sities, announced the‘ discovery of a double star whose speed of revo- lution is the _swif_testVyet known- _ Officials of the universities said that i the discovery is another clue : ‘not only in the formation of double stars ‘but in the complicated evo- lution of the solar system. _ ’ Professor. Kuiper said the "binary —or double star———is in the constel- lation of Ophiuchus and that its pe- A riod of evolution is twenty months. The most rapid binary previously known has a_ period of approximate- ly five years,~_ he said, while many whirl around one another only once in 100 years. ' Similarly the sun- earth period is. one year. Because of ..the short. period, this star’s twocomponents must be close to one ‘another, thereby forming ta possible link between" two types of binaries heretofore regarded by some astronomers ‘as being in separate classes, the discoverer" explained. The, newly discovered star is -known as a ‘visual binary ‘because the two parts -can -be seen distinct- ly. Others, .which ‘are so close to- gether that they seem to be asingle unit, are V binaries. ’ The binary is twenty light years from p the earth, is -a ninth-mag- .nitude "star and is, therefore not visible to the naked eye.

Father has said I am using that which is «termed religion for a better edu- cation. Today thousands of follow- ers of Father Divine, ranging in age from 17 to 107 years young are going back to school. They are at- tending the day and evening schools of our city endeavoring to become qualified for better citizenship which will enable them to express in all phases "of life, and in government, and become fully qualified to func_- tion wherever they may be placed to -serve.

I was thinking at that time, “‘he Whosuffers with ME, shall REIGN. .with ME,“ but as ‘a matter of “course, Iihad looked around and be- held as though there were those who did suffer with ME. mentally, Spir- itually and otherwise for RIGHT- IEOUSNESS sake unselfishly, and by so doing, they have come into pose-. session of an inheritance, the REIGN of CHRIST in peace for- ever, while on the other hand, there are those among you, from time to time, who will not, and would not suffer for, RIGHTEOUSNESS Sake, those who would not DENY them- selves, those who would rather suf- fer physically with physical’ afflic- ‘tions, sickness and diseases than to suffer mentally and spiritually by DENYING themselves whole-heart- edly, to live an Evangelical Life. »You bring afflictions upon your- selves——your physical bodies at times; after you claim to know ME, you become to be afflictedand sick- ly, and at times, you become to be somewhat maimed” ,and lame, be- cause you are not willing to DENY yourselves whole-heartedly and ‘suf- fer with ME mentally and Spiritual- ly, by" a complete self-denial of the mortal, according to the ~Gospel.. ‘ If you DENY yourself whole- heartedly, by putting off mortal, and putting on IMMORTALITY, your physical ' - bodies will remain HEALTHY, VIGOROUS and filled with ENTHUSIASM, with JOY and with HAPPINESS, but if you are not willing to DENY yourself, if you are not willing to ‘put off the old man with all of his deeds and "SURRENDER yfourv bodies as Liv- '1‘ The “SPOKEN When" ing Sacrifices ’WHOLiLY to GOD, and become to be physical Servants, by living Evangelically ‘whole heartedly, you may‘ bring afflictions upon your bodies, and cause your bodies to suf- fer as an abstract A expression of the suffering“ you should have un- dergone mentally and spiritually, by DENYING yourselves whole-hearted- ly. REIGNING WITH HIM IN GLORY V, I know there is asuffering within you, when you see and consider yourselves as humbling yourselves to be abased in the sight of man, denying your professional duties and your professions, etc. for RIGHT- EOUSNESS Sake, by coming in the Spirit of Meekness, to be Willing to be as JESUS was, the Servant of the servants, in reality, By the will- ingness to do so, it is a mental and a Spiritual suffering, apparent- ly, but \“he who will suffer for RIGHTEOUSNESS Sake, shall REIGN with ME in MY Glory,” nevertheless, your thoughts should not be in that direction. Your thoughts should be as a living sac- rifice. You should surrender your whole ‘Spirit, soul and your body, without any thoughts of return, for the least of the sacrifices of the expressions you -are making; REWARD OF OBEDIENCE Oh! it is indeed a privilege to realize as JESUS, the Great‘ LOVE- MASTER said: “No man has forsaken these things, lest he don't gain,” or “lest he will gain," vvhlchever in short, “a hundred fold more in this present time, and in the world to come,” (which is in the -Spi - I itual Realm wherein‘ we stand “Life Everlasting.” I “He who suffers with ME, shall also R_EIGN with ME,” but by those of you who refuse to be willing to present your bodies as Living A Sac- rifices WHOLLY as Servants of GOD and to mankind, you may bring afflictions upon» your bodies, and cause you -to suffer in that way of__expression, when you could have merely suffered mentally, by{ going too‘ the opposite direction to your Physical feeling and to your mortal. version. i Saturday, April 1161:, 1936 It has been from the early —_days of this Light of Civilization in which we are now living, mankind has striven to get away from giving practical and real profitable service for his existence. You have been taught to study to learn trades, to seek to exercise your gifts, your talents to learn many different Ways of getting around giving practical‘ service for your sustenance, to pro- hibit yourselves from taking phys- ical exercise in the Way of ‘giving practical service for mankind and for yourselves. “My sons and daugh- ters must not Wo.rk as I have work- ed,” I have heard them say. “I want them to have an education. They must have trades whereby they will not have to toil as I have toiled, whereby they can get their living,” which could have been said, .“‘Without giving real, practical or physical exercises,“ not knowing physical exercises in the practical way of service, will be the means for the advancement of your phys- ical ability. ‘ _ ; MENTAL ABILITY ADVANCED By inspiration, your _mental abil- ity will ‘be advanced and increased in understanding as well. Oh! it is something ‘to consider! You have ' been robbed and spoiled. might have one said, Truly . ‘Who hath bewitched you, thatye should not obey the TRUTH,” or “will not obey the TRUTH.” Itis indeed wonderful! You have been bewitched by this Light of Civilization, according to the mortal versions, which have \caused. you to believe you must be SUCCESSFUL and PROSPEROUS by learning how to keep from giving practical service for your sustenance, that you might protect yourselves physically and save your lives in opposition and contrary to the Scripture: “He who seeks to save his, life, shall lose it. He whofwill lose his life for MY Sake, shall preserve A it.” MYSTERY or‘ PRACTICAL SERVICE A ., ‘ I AM speaking on the prac'tica.1-*7 ity of true Spirituality, by the In- spiration of the ALMIGHTY. this shall have been developed in humanity, even though they be " SURRENDER. Saturday, April’ 11th,’ 1936 tured .after the manner of men, even though they have learned how to‘ get around giving practical service, how- to win VICTORY over the illit- erate and those who are ignorant, unless you learn the mystery of true practical service and the. true practicality of putting your Spirit .- and your energy and your mentality into practical service‘ in whatsoever way of expression is possible, to and for the Glory and the Honor of the V ALMIGHTY, for. the common good of humanity, until _you do this, it ’ C __will be a matter of impossibility - for you to have the VICTORY con-' tinually lover afflictions, sickness and diseases, but when" you do, then and there, your physical "bodies will be preserved. They will be _preserv- ed by POWER DIVINE. I, heard one say by inspiration ,through a Composition: A A ‘Are we yet alive to see each other’s face, _ Glory and Praise‘ to‘ JESUS give a for His REDEEMING Grace. Preserved. by PQWER DIVINE, Full Salvation near, a . Again in JESUS’ Praise we’ll join -And in His sight appear}? When this is made REAL to you, then and there, you can again in this 'one ETERNAL Praise join, and in His 'Sight appear, with your bodies preserved by POWER DIVINE and ' full Salvation near. SIGNIFICANCE OF A A ' COMPLETE SURRENDER . Oh! it is something to consider- the great significance of a complete This is nothing less than the Message given by JE- SU\-S. in another version, parably speaking concerning this present " Mystery: “‘He who seeks to save his life’, ; shall lose it, but he who will lose his life for MY Sake, shall pre- serve it.” Why should you go" ‘around with afflictions in your physical bodies? You bring those conditions upon yourselves at times, because you are rtrying- to get around suffering, con- ztrary to your physical or your icon- ! Escious. desires service to con and to mankind, and in giving practical sucha negative and backsliding 1 ~ thoughts will cause the phy_sical.con- Vtriie “SPOKEN WORD” dition to be an expression of afflic- tion. whereby you can get the sym- pathy and the pity and the mercy of mortality. I - Live in this Spirit and this MIND, and your physical bodies will be ‘VIGOROUS, HEALTHY and HAP-n PY, and you will be physically fit to give practical service, that is, if you are willing and will give it, but if you visualize prohibiting your- selves, or refusing to give practical service for your existence, you may visualize it so vividly, the re-action of your’ visualization may bring an affliction on your physical ‘body, that you might have the chance not to give practical service justifi- ably, according to your version. ' A DISGRACE TO BE SICK, I , These. are hard sayings; but yet they are true. Your physical afflic- tions, after coming into this Recog- nition, they are caused by some of your slothfulness, your desires, or, some such expression which causes the re-action of your mind tobring t afflictions upon your physical struc- ture,. to prohibit. you from giving practical service, and doing what you should do‘ for the common" good of humanity, and for your ‘own in- . dividual existence. The time cometh, and now is, when a person is sick and afflicted, it will be a; disgrace to him. It is indeed wonderful! It ‘is not an honor to. be sick and afflicted. ' It is ‘an outward expres- sion of your desires; it is an out- ward expression of your failing to serve GOD whole heartedly, there- fore, your desire to have an alibi will cause your physical body to produce the alibi or the excuse, so you will not have to do it. By the foregoing statement you are not physically fit, and especially after you have known ME, if you have been physically fit before you knew ME, and you become to be unphysically fit, _after you know ME, you were not mentally fit, or you made yourselves unphysically fit by your mental attitude towards GOD and towards the service by which, or to which you were called. A CLEAN BILL OF HEALTH‘ ' These are hard Sayings, but yet they are ,true. I AM giving you a CLEAN BILL of HEALTH. It is - the Dollar.- Page 5 indeed wonderful! Your mental fit- ness will keep you physically fit, . will keep your physical fitness into expression. You will be active with your physical fitness, for your men- tal “fitness will adjust it. Now isn’t that wonderful! Hereafter we shall know you are disgracing your own profession, your own testimony, when you are physically unfit, by not producing and expressingthe fitness inyour‘ physical system. ' ' NOW ISN'T THAT WONDERFUL! If you desire to be physically fit personally, ‘ yourselves mentally to meet the is- sues of life. When you shall have qualified yourselves ‘ mentally, auto- matically your physical bodies will also be qualified by the ADJUSTER, which is the Mentality to adjust matters satisfactorily. Now isn’tt hat wonderful? (“Truly wonderful!” as- sured the Hearers.) That old mind will desire you, and tell you, “‘You should not do this, and you should not do that!” By that old mortal mind, itwill suggest all sorts of things to you——natural- ly, you will give in to that old mor- tal tendencey—— — —rather be sick than to give service to -serve GOD . and man.- That old mind came from “the other place,” and must return from whence it came. I ‘ TEMPLES 0F~'1‘HE LIVING GOD In mortal consciousness -many of you, a good many _of you would join Insurance—Sick and Accident Benefits,‘ etc., for the purpose of getting afflicted /or sick, and at times, you would have a . little ac- cident, and get a little sick, for the purpose ,_ of drawing money without paying for it. (Applause.) Many of you_ would be“ willing to mutilate your physical -bodies for the sake of It‘ is written in the Scripture, “Know ye not that your bodies are the Temples of the LIVING GOD, which Temples ye are . . .” GOD has said, “I will walk in them and dwell in them,” but on . the other hand, _ « .. “He who defiles the Temple, of - GOD, him shall GOD destroy.” ' This Morning, or this Afternoon, whichever, »I, AM. destroying '__evcry, fit yourselves, qualify. Page 61. mortal version. . I ‘AM destroying -— —- —~ the mortal ideas and opi- ' nions which have been defiling the Temples of GOD. Now isn't that wonderful! “What shall the LORD of the Vineyard do?” come HIMSELF, and destroy those husbandmen, and ‘give the Vineyard to others.”‘ Now, isn't that won- derful? (“Truly wonderful!” _ con- firmed the Hearers.) ' DESTROYING THE MORTAL VERSIONS . y; I came to destroy every mortal version, all of them which ‘ have been your controllers, all of them which you have been under_ the jurisdiction of,’ and give your body to the Spirit of the 'LIVFNG,_GOD, to HIS MIND, to I-IIS"UNDER- STANDING, to VHIS AIM and "=toV HIS PURPOSE. It is indeed won- derfu1!_ You have no, more business ' - to be sick than you have business T to be out there swearing and to be cursing, as you call it. When you are sick, you are men- tally and Spiritually or physically committing than GOD ,AL- life’s energy "and your enthusiasm ‘and the spirit . of MY PRESENCE and MY LOVE and MY DEVOTION to some mortal expression’ -and un- desirable tendency, which are not according to MY Version. Why dis- e sipate ~-your life and your energy, 4 your mentality, with those old- de- testable and undesirable tendencies? It is indeed wonderful! From henceforth, now and for- ‘ ever, you will be ashamed to be a sick person.’ »If you "sin, you need someone or ‘something to forgive ‘you for your sin. T If you .'-get’ sick you need a Physician. ‘ thatwonderful? (“Oh! it is-‘so’ won- derful, LORD!” icommented the mul- titudie.)

It is They rev-who are joined to a harlot, ‘are one. flesh, but what says the Spirit: “They who are joined to the ‘LORD, are one Spirit.” If you join yourselves to mortality and the mor- tal versions,’ after you‘ have been married to the LAMB ‘once and ‘forever, you are "going after strange “He 7 shall- adultery with another f expression other ’MIGHTY.

DIVINE E’ R‘ The “mortal mind” of the Herald- Tribune reporter who accompanied FATHER D_IvI»NE and His party ‘during the week-end E on a tour of FATHER’S upstate and Connecticut «properties could not blind him_ alto- gether to the Glory -of the New Kingdom of Heaven which has come down to earth. It was, to say the very least, an experience without precedent to find himselfisitting a- longside The One Who was hailed at one stopping-place after another as God of Heaven and Earth, the Ruler of the New Kingdom. I _ Bewilderment at the homage ren- dered FATHER DIVINE and admi- ration for the practicality, of His activities evidently strove, from hour to hour, for possession ‘ofthe reporter’s mind. ' » ‘In his narrative, appearing in the -Herald-Tribune of April 6, he wrote, Swinging along in his heavy, high- ly- polished limousineover the dirt roads of «the back country near the Asnokan Dam, pointed‘. out one old Dutch farm- V after another which he has acquir (1 within the last six months. , FATHER DIVINE has ‘bought no V_ rundown farms.

Okay. Then I will allow my believers to try theirs and see which gets results first. You're asking if I am God. I am not interested that they say who I am or what I am, ’specia1ly. Ifm just taking you along The Kingston place has only four ‘ acres and is not considered one of the farms, Luncheon over, the jour- ney continued. The next stop was the New Palz “extension,” as each new home of the movement is called. There was a big green and yellow house, surrounded by. thirty-two acres. - ‘‘ ~ The motorcade moved on to High Falls, where FATHER DIVINE has . purchased the sixty-four acre,Cher- ry‘ Hill Farm. _ A Stops to -Save a -Sinner In Olive Bridge FATHER DI- VINE has acquired one 100-acre farm with 500 chickens, two ‘horses and nine ‘cows, and another tract, known as the Davis place, which gcomprises, 177 acres dominated by a- delightful old Dutch stone farm- house. On the way there, FATHER. 'DIVINE‘S car stopped suddenly when Mister Charlie, the chauffeur, spotted a man lying helpless. in a « ‘ditch beside the road. - ' I They all clambered out and pulled the be-,whiskered fellow to his feet. He turned out to be a white-haired farmer who was quite inebriated and clung to a burlap sack in which was a telltale crocker jug. “"‘Peace!” said FATHER ‘DIVINE, and the stranger, rubbing his eyes, repeated: ‘fPeace,”’ dully. Then he plodded un- steadily down the road. “That’ll change the man,” FATHER DI- VINE, who eschews both liquor and tobacco, announced happily.‘ V "Peace" Before Breakfast « The‘ big surprise and FATHER DIVI'NE’S headquarters while, in_‘U1- ‘ !-Page?’ ster County was saved for the last. That was the V old Hasbrouck. farm — three-story, ' house, with barns -and 145,acres.—,— at Stone Ridge. There he was greet- ed by Mother ‘Divine, and by at least .a score of jubilant ‘faithful, who sur- rounded his car and screamed the usual greeting. ‘ V Although he ‘retired to his office to work late, FATHER DIVINE was up at 7. N After an eleven-course breakfast, the inspection party scrambled into the car-with FATHER DIVINE to be driven -over? to the Bridgeport, 'Conn_., extension. ~A policeman stop- ped the car in Danbury for doing fifty miles an hour through that century-old _ stone ' 4 town but scratched. his head and let I ‘it go’ on when FATHER DIVINE announced from the rear seat in his soft voice: “Thisfis FATHER DI- VINE’S Peace Mission.’ ’ i " WE "ARE in infini_ty now.

Mad- ison presiding as Chairman. Reports of the various commit- tees, representing the departments of the Righteous Government activ- ities, brought forth many interest.- ing and instructive phases of the political and social scope of the Peace ‘Missionwork. The necessity for presenting the Righteous Gov- -ernment -Platform, recently endorsed by Father Divine, and adopted at its convention in7‘January,V to the politicians seeking, office, for their consideration, was introduced by Miss Claudia Pearson, a member of the political committee, and a defi- nite form for such presentation was made ,the subject for debate and. discussion. . . Miss Wiltshire, Chairman of the 63rd‘ Street Forum, was present at the meeting, and was ‘unanimously endorsed in her effort to’ stress the importance of confining the Forum meetings to Political activities. . It was reported that Miss Marie ~ ::looz, of the Foreign Policy Asso- ciation, would send speakers to the Righteous Government Forums both at 63rd Street Wednesday evenings, and to 20 West 115th Street on Friday evenings. Mr. Ben I-Iowe, of the Fusion Party, was the speak- er sent by ‘her last week and proved a’ very‘ interesting visitor. Mr. Kommer reported the work of ‘preparing ‘voters to qualify for registration and voting was going ahead satisfactorily. ’, - The session closed with a reso- lution to meet twice a month in- stead of once a month as formerly. All interested in Righteous Govern- ment Activities are invited to at- tend and volunteer their services in the various departments in which they might be interested.

It ‘as been declared that the Righteous Government of FATHER DIVINE’S Peace Mission is a ‘"The- ' ocracy,’-’ or a government controlled ‘ — and directed by the Deity. This is L correct, but in accepting that clas- sification, it is necessary again to 9 define t-heterms used. The old un- derstanding of the word “Theocracy” was that the ‘\‘God” who” thus reigned was somewhere outside of the realm He was ruling. God was supposed‘ to ‘be, sitting or standing on some mysterious, unknown spot from which He controlled the mo- tions of worlds and the destinies of mankind. . FATHER DIVINE’S quarrel with that idea is that it is not PRAC- TICAL. He adds that it is also not ‘ PR-OFITABLE. ’ ' He- locates ground of the planet, and places the -Throne from which God reigns straight in the human mind, the human heart, the human body, the \ human ” ISOUL. . *When He rises to speak, He de- clares, “There I site and here you He applies literally the statement" of Jesus——-“The Kingdom of heaven’ is within you.” So in saying that the earth be- longs to God we are saying what the rank and file of humanity were over-long in finding out, that the v surface of the earth belongs ‘to all mankind, not to"any ruling or pos- sessing classiof men. s The more "the Platform of the Righteous Government is studied; the’ clearer it‘ becomesthat ‘the d_O_C~b ﬁument is full of social dynamite. It declares that all (land, taken , un- ’ justly from former occupants must ,..be.. restored. And the breath-tak- Hing statement follows thatthis ap- ,,p_lies to nations as well as to in- C, I dividuals.

Crimes that have long been toler- ated will be tolerated no more. Nationalistic “agression” and “ex- pansiorg’ are felt now to be pre- cisely on a par with‘ piracy on the high seas. An alien nation has no more right to ’ invade another na- tion and take its territory than the crew of a pirate ship has to board another vessel and capture’ it and its cargo. , , -,That is precisely , what most of the nations of the world, including our own, have been up to the pres- ent hour in world 'ghistory—pirate nations, stealing by force what be- longs to others. And we_ have called these nations “Christian nations.” A study of In- ternational Law reveals the fact that practically the whole body of what has been called International Law has to do with the rules of war- fare.‘ Page after page is devoted to the rules and regulations of cap- turing the vessels of “belligerents” at sea. Pirates all. What is for- bidden to an individual pirate cap- tain who will. man a vessel and sail out to capture other ships becomes patriotic righteousness when the pi-_ rates are bound together in a group that calls itself ' a “nation.” And the blasphemous bitterness of the The t vsion sets the matter straight. Page 17 whole-tragedy isseen on page after page on which these pirate nations are classified as “Christendom,” na- tions of the Christ!

And, that divine right of the in- dividual includes his right to have i for his own use some portion of the ground of the planet on which he lives. n This is aprinciple that must be emphasized. 'Man_’s body was formed. original- ly “out of the dust of the ground.” So- long as he has a body and un- til that’ body has become completely "‘etherialized" a man .needs the ground just as much as a tree or a plant needs it. , ‘ If- you go into a forest and cut down the trees they will die. down an individual tree and it dies. It was probably not by accident that the blind man said during the process ‘of his healing——“I see men as trees walking.” That is just about what a man is; he is a tree loosed from-his rootage in the soil A and walking about. But he cannot live unless he -keeps some contact with the soil. ' What our social system up to date A has been is precisely like that, It has been a wicked, unjust, cruel, systemized process of taking the ground away from the human beings who cannot live apart from it. In the blazing light of the new Divine Righteous Government all the rules ‘and regulations and titles and agreements that have been enforced 'to_the discomfiture of the masses must be rescinded and revised.

By “OBSERVER” ) . Nothing neteworthy has occurred in business of 1ate—-industry is op-_ erating . on an even .kee1, and the , recovery movement continues slowly. And nothing noteworthy has oc- ‘curred in government—Congress -is pursuing its routine, and no legis- lative excitement, aside from the Townsend Plan and the American Telephone & Telegraph Co. investi- gations, is apt to occurin the near future. Finally, nothing noteworthy has occurred in the tense European situation—the great powers con- ’ tinue to play their diplomatic chess game. . V A, It might also be said that noth- ing noteworthy has occurred in the political situation, so far as major developments are involved. But there is great activity beneath the surface, and the political picture for 1936 is gradually taking form. 1 Main political interest naturally focuses on the Republican party— everyone knows that, barring the grim reaper or a grade A miracle, the Democratic candidates for the elective. positions in the Delano Roosevelt’ of New York, and John And, with- in the Republican party, the battle lines are firmly fixed. One strong wing of the party, led by Herbert Hoover, Wants a highly conservative. candidate, such as, for example, Col- onel Knox, publisher of the Chicago News. Another strong wing, led by Senator Borah, and generally be- . lieved to havevthe support of such potent figures as ‘Senate Minority Leader McNary of Oregon, wants a liberal candidate. - Still another strong wing Wants a middle-of-the- road candidate," such as Governor Landon of Kansas. At this writing, the surest candidate for the nomi- nation would be Governor Landon, and most public polls show that he ‘is more popular with the people than other leading Republicans. But it must not be forgotten that prom- inent commentators seem to believe that neither Senator Borah nor Ex- President Hoover are in favor of Landon—and those two men, stand- ing-‘poles apart in their viewpoints, ‘ having. little in common save. sin- were . inevitable possible he cut expense. The “SPOKEN worm" cerity, can sway ‘ a great "number of delegates at the convention. Such commentators are tending ‘toward the belief that the big figures in the party may offset each other with their opposed ,strength—‘-—may indi- rectly bring about the nomination of a dark horse. That remains to be seen. But this can -be said‘ with certainty—— no matter who is . nominated, he will campaign on ‘certain planks. Constitutionalism will t-hose planks~—the Republicans will hold that it is the President's plan to get around the Constitution in one way or another, establish what amounts to a dictatorship of the Federal bureaucracy. "Faxes will be another——-the gRep’ublicans twill say- , the, country goes toward .’. bankruptcy. _ Relief will. be another——-the. Republi- inflation impends, and that cans will claim that Administration relief plans have been wasteful and socially and economically menacing, that more distress could have, been alleviated with less spending; that the spoils system ' prevails. Public policy toward industry will be an- .other—the Republicans ‘will f claim that Administration tax and regu- , latory policies have barred the Way of greater industrial recovery. And so it will go. The accent laid . on these various points will vary with the candidate. If, for instance, Sen- ator Borah were would probably lay greatest stress on the Constitution, while Governor Landon would be expected to ‘talk most about taxation and fiscal pol- icies. But all the planks P will be used. ’ ‘ The Democratic campaign must, of course, be based on the ‘Presi- dent's record. It will be held that he was responsible for the recovery we have achieved—that__his mistakes in an emergency where speed was essential, that he has no idea of tampering with the Constitution or the Supreme Court, that his program, by andlarge, has succeeded and earned him the right to go back and finish the job. ' ‘It is widely believed that the President will stress economy in the campaign—declare that his vast ex- penditures were unavoidable and saved us from ruin, that wherever In line with this, he . recently. appointed .a. be one of _nominated, he‘ , A Saturday, April 11th,_ .1936. ‘ committee’ of three experts in -‘public "g, administration to survey the gov- ernment and prepare a plan for re‘- - organization and consolidation of bureaus in, the interest’ of economy’ and efficiency. 1 members he intimated that some of the new agencies he created were justified by emergency, So the political war is getting under way, even though, theoreti- \« cally, the opening gun will not be fired until after the conventions. at an 0 ‘ Business Week says “for the first 1 time since last July, the average householder’s budget has gotten .a' M break.” " _ V The break consisted of a. drop in the cost of such necessities as food . and clothing, which offset increases in rent, fuel and sundries.

Roosevelt President Roosevelt has appointed Major George L. Berry as Coordi- ; A nator (without salary) for Indust- rial Cooperation. Directly following _his appointment ,Major Berry announced the forma- tion of Labor’s, Non-Partisan Leagues The New York ‘Times states: Major‘ Berry’ was originally a.p- _ pointed coordinator last Fall under the terimsiof an act of Congress that‘ kept alive-—a1though in much reduced form—-the National Recovery VAdmi- nistration, which had been invalidat- ed by the ‘Supreme Court. The NRA Extension .Act ceased to be effect- ive last Tuesday, when the last ves- tiges of the once potent government agency disappeared. In keeping the" «s major on the job the President acted under the Emergency Relief Ap- propriation Law of 1935. The duties. of the - coordinator. are ‘ “to arrange for and supervise con- ferences of representatives of in- dustry, investors, labor and con- sumers for consideration of means of supplementing the govern- ment’s efforts by providing. em- ployment for ‘the greatest possible - number of employable persons and ., of improving and maintaining in- dustrial, commercial and labor’ stan- dards as they affect employment.” Major Berry presided over such a conference last December; a con- siderable section _of the industrial ’community boycotted it. As coordinator, Major Berry heads a staff, of about twenty-five em- ployes, most of whom are holdovers from days when NRA had 15,400 on g the payroll. His agency is one of four NRA remnants that survive by passing into other government de- partments. The other three are the Committee of Industrial, Analysis, which is to study NRA’s effect on industry and 'labor; the Industrial Economics Division of the Commerce Department, which is to. work .with the Labor Department Consumers Division. In announcing the formation of Labor’s Nonpartisan League for the reelection of Mr. Roosevelt, Major Berry (who is president of the print- ing pressmen’s union)_.said he felt 1 “ free to partake in political activity A s because no salary goes with his Fed- The “SPOKEN wonn" _ eral post. About 300 labor leaders (including John L. Lewis of the United Mine Workers) had urged that the league be formed.

The Rural Electrifciation Admin- ,0 istration was created as a tempo raryibody by the President on May 11, 1935. The present bill author- izes the Reconstruction Finance Corporation to lend to the. Rural Electrification Administration not to’ exceed $50,000,000: during, the year ending June 30, 1937 and spe- cifies for the next nine years an appropriation of $40,000,00 annu- ally. ‘ The original electrification pro- gram called for a «billon dollars, but was cut down to 410,000,000 at .~President Roosevelt’s request. , A corresponding measure was passed by the -Senate on March 5, but calling for 420 million dollars instead of 410.

The "Spirit through your con- tact fills jrou with enthusiasm and keeps your hearts filled with MER- RINESS, ‘heals youfor. all of your afflictions, sickness and,’ diseases, as enthusiasm with MERRINESS is the medicine as the Healing Balm for your Spirit, your mind,., your body and your Soul, therefore, I say once again as I have said, “The half has never yet been told.” - ‘» .

It will LIFT you above the oppressions of the oppres- sors. It will establish your going inf the land of the Living.

There is not a con- -dition that can befall mankind, whereby the Spirit of MY PRES- , EN;CE, if you have the right cons cept and the recognition of it, can- not overcome those conditions. Oh! it is something to consider. ‘ . Such a recognition can and will overcome every undesirable condi- tion, for you have been estabished in Consciousness as one being with_, n the INFINITE. Such a ‘Recognition carries within itself the. VICTORY, for GOD in you is OMNIPQTENT, therefore, that which is in opposi’-. tio‘n could not compete with HIM,‘ for GOD being OMNIPOTENT—_ALL V VPOW‘ER, being OMNISCIENT———ALL WISDOM, naught can come that could be actually against HIM. Truly might have one said, “You ~ have not resisted unto blood, striv- ing against sin.” When you ' shall have presented your bodies as Liv- ing Sacrifices, and shall have sacri- ficed. all, even unto death, if CHRIST" is ALL ..and ALL in you, ' as HE was in Himself, HE will give you NICTORY to overcome, ‘even death. Trulybmight have one said, “Qhere has no temptatiion taken ' you, but such as is common to man;ﬂ for GOD is Faithful, Who will not suffer you to be tempted above that ye are able: that :1-IE might give you VICTORY to overcome it.” This was the Message iconveyed, but the transposed version as I AM" giving, it may not be exactly the di- rect quotation, the latter clause of the statement, however, I AM con- veying it in MY Own Language, I AM conveying it in your ‘language, that you might understand it. .

Why will you overcome it, and overcome all of them from every angle? It is because you have LIFT- -ED ONE in your consciousness and in your consideration as being PER-/' FECTION far above all expressions, even your fondest imagination, or any other .expression that may ex-‘ press power or powers that may be, even if they/’ are harmonious or in- harmonious, the very ‘Spirit ‘of your Recognition of the OMNIPOTENT ONE- will give you access and a harmonious expression" with the PERFECTED ONE, therefore, there . will not be a power harmoniously ex-, pressing to surpass the PERFEC- TION of HIM within you.—Much more would t~he_harmonious' expres- sion be greater-to your consideration than of the inharmonious expression, such as negation, therefore, I say, if the harmonious expression could not surpass the PERFECTION develop- ed in’ you,as individuals, it is ev- idently known the inharmonious and-negation expressed, could by no ways and by no means compete with. it.

Ninemonths ago it was inconceivable that these men could Vllave'been working together. ,AndIas the majority of them were I ‘ agnostics, that they should be tak- /z V life, of business ‘life, and by the «leaders of the Church, That such ing leadership in ' the Christianiza- tion of their country, is in itself a miracle. T ‘ “V I I I ‘ . Think of the people you know who ' openly profess that they are not Christian; imagine‘ those people in nine months leading ‘Christian ad- vance inxyour own country; that is the measure of the astonishing thing that has happened. One of the men’ leading in the work, a business‘ -man, was nine months ago a rabid agnostic. One was, and is, a dig-' nitary of the Church. One, a law- yer, was a Socialist, a negative ‘critic. One, ,a _woman reporter on. ;one of 'the national papers, had a reputation for the most cynical and biting pen in "Danish journalism._ One. was a foreigner without knowl- edge of the’ country. One was an attractive young business man with p a background of night-clubs, and other. gaiety. One was the genial head of a big.'College. . ’ Utterly‘_unexpectedly, those seven people have become nation-wide leaders; of a ’ movement -of .vital Christianity.

The Ordinary.

The minister, hi.r_n- self identified with the GI‘0l_.1P,,‘haS .'v - V life td Christ.” T!1{e'fs.I'0I:EN WORD" invited a teamy toxy this parish.

After the meeting‘. there is a. cup. ‘of tea for everybody. At one side of the trestle table two men are talking, a hotel-keeper, and a* member of _V the team. After quiet but deep talk, the two men slip out, and‘, in a quiet corner, the hotel-keeper gives his_ life to« God. s ' Afterwards o the President of the Council ‘says, “Ihope you have been satisfied with the evening?” “Yes,” comes the answer, ‘people have been changed here tonight.” “‘You mean you sensea difference in the atmos- phere?” ‘In this hall tonight at least one man has just given his There is surprise on the face of the President.’ V "- So it is happening, that parishes are becoming life-changing 'centres. Clerjgyl changed .themselves, are changing members of their congre- gations. Building them into a‘ team, they are leading them ‘out into life- changing. The. Ohurch of God, in the persons‘ of , ordinary members of _' ordinary congregations, is be- coming a life-giving power in the , nation. ‘ True Unity of Action ‘A Almost unnoticed, the greatest ' problem of the ‘Church’ is here find- ing an answer. The ‘Unity\ of the Church‘ is_\'not one. of ' t'he7major‘ problems of the Chureh in Den- mark, because 98 per cent of the population ‘belongs nominally to’ the i . State Church. But even here remarkable. things are /happening. There is co-oper- ation between the State Church and other Churches in Denmark. Yet more remarkable has been a, united service,,where the Danish and Ger- man ministers took part together Southern Jutland’; that fact impress- ed people more than anything else" perhaps, in that service. , ~ On the team itself there is the‘ most remarkable unity. ‘ neverya sign of division among a . team‘ which includes people from There is . all‘ parts (of/the Church of Engletntlf Free Churchmen, Roman Catholics, Quakers, and people who areilonly just beginning their connection with_ H the Church’ at all’, having been brought up away‘ from. all .contact, with: organized religion, His Dominion Shall Stretch From .Sea. to Sea _ , V ‘In, these months in -Denmark we have seen" the change that'can come in human character where the pow- er of God is free to act; on alarge enough scale, this will change the .world.'

It ‘is at ‘ this point that christ pulls toward - Heaven‘, and Satan pulls toward Hell this conflict permitting the I of con- ‘ sciousness‘ to assert itself in deter- ‘ mined cooperation with one or the other of-xthese factors» of progres- sion. I ‘ :The self-will of man, active in the love and will of the flesh,_is Satan. Satan is the C law of darkness, the g controlling power of sin and mate- . riality. Christ, :the son of God, is revealed that it may destroy the works of Satan and darkness. Sa- tan is n‘ot afgained power of self- consciousness until the self has gain- ed itself. It is at this point that choice of serving Heaven or -H . .. in consciousness is presented, this be- ing the point that conforms to the . separation of the Ego from God, at the beginning of Time. If this " temptation . results in uniting the ego with God, the ego enters the path that leads ‘to spiritual Birth, andqloodily redemption. If the ego chooses the‘ way of self-will at the yen ‘of Time it must sojurn another cycle of mortality in the planet that receives the cast-off’ forces of the Earth at its redemption. Egoes put- fting off the will of the serpent or Satan, and putting on the Will of the Spirit which is Christ go free from -sin~and ideath, bringing Satan to naught through dying'to the self- love that makes one mortal. It is the end of mortality, at the second ‘coming of Christ, -that the body is redeemed, it being the re- sult of the greater works of ,God among‘ ./us’, identified in the New ‘Name of God,”Christ and Man. All activities, both en -the bodily and’ the Spiritual ,planes, indicate pre- paration for a new expression of in this-test _by~§_S_atan, the reinhaiit ‘ of the self-'-will that supplies the lies;*",.snares,j delusions, and entice- -"»the:Allness of God, Christ is made _ merits,-..1oy'whi;ch"themlhderstanding, tc ‘se‘rve~ the one should not do.

When all, the race, then it V3 -\ is that the race is bro’t to a com- mon_disso1ution, all being effected in a common way by which conscious- ‘ness is transformed and redeemed. This work of the Lord (Divine .Laws) is now going on, -promoting ‘a new Spirit and a new body,‘ in which Righteousness can Reign. It is at the transformation of the body that their overthrow, but it is also the time of Victory and Redemption. Knowledge of the higher Laws of Life comes through the action of God within, and not through expe- rience; though experience, by which one gains the organism of conscious- ness, precedes the Christ Illumina- tion. The Ego is: not man until he is immaculately conceived in the Virgin Mary” of himself, and Fa- thered in “the Holy Spirit——that is man is born of Spirit -marriage, and not of material union. ‘V One in marriage, is in a position to understand the experience it de-, velops, only in the degree that he is transmuting the forces expressed, into higher energies and powers; The only real marriage is the mar- riage in Christ. D The 'Sphynx. A Helpful Gesltureﬂ V It was delightful to find a few people who, though they have awakened to the need of reform in our political structure, are aware of the folly of an attempt to influence the voters in the‘ coming election sufficiently ,to form a Third Party. Among these are Major Berry and that sterling leader of equal rights of the “laborer” among the labor unions, John L. Lewis. ‘These men are showing that sense of Amer- icanism that puts its shoulder to the wheel and help the “foreman” to finish his job although they may believe they know better how to ‘do it than‘ the “foreman.” " 7 It requires very little real effort to criticize the plan. of another and the working out of this plan, but it requires that we really exert ourselves and get our selves out of i the way when we are willing to do our part in a plan that ‘should have our support as citizens, althoiigh not our approval.
