When I say ‘here you are and there I am,’ allow it to be in Real- ity. When I say ‘here you all are and there I am. intone and 8.11,’ through the condescension of the Love of GOD to the children of men I have brought Myself into the Unity of Spirit of Mind, of Aim and of Purpose with them that they might automatically be One with M , Him Who Live-th ‘ forever and for-. A «_ ever. , PARTAKERS or‘ _ HIS CHARACTERISTICS I heard you say in the last com- ‘I' want to i go through.’ The only way to go through in real- ity, is -to be -partakers of My Chat- acteristics and walk in My tstatutes. Remember one of My Originals com- positions at one‘ time quite often re- hearsed, but recently after it ‘was composed, it was stressed more vi- vidly at that time apparently than ‘been recently: I, x 3' Original Quotation: Birmhe . I Page 4 P-RJEACH CHRIST INWORD-is BUT MORE so IN DE~EiDiS AND IN ACTIONS AND I VVIL;L PUT MY SPIRIT IN THEM AND cause: THEM TO waniz IN MY STAT- UTES. ' The reiteration in words is not. so frequent as it was in the beginning,- but the reiteration in actions in the fulfilment of ‘A the declagation has taken place in your present day ex- perience,-—I cansee My tr-ue follow- erswalking in My Statutes, I -can see them making a complete’ sur- render, living Evangelically whole- heartedly that’ My Love and My Spirit and My Mind might have full control over your spirit, your body and your soul. , ~ For this. cause you can rejoice, when you are the fulfillers of My Word for ‘My Words They are Spirit and They are Life and, as on-e de- clared by the lsxpirit according to the “In the begin- ning was the Word and the Word was with GOD and the Word"Was GOD.” ' THE WORD- IS GOD HIMSELF It is a privilege to realize My Words that I have spoken to you They are ‘Spirit and They are Life, and They are GOD Himself. When you conceive them and live accord- ing to ..same,. then and -there the Wor-d in you Will be made flesh to save you from a sinne~r’s death. I heard yousay; ‘I want to go through.’ Isn’t that Wonderful! I said; ‘Do not say it unless you mean it.’ If you mean it, sincerely sing I it and your prayers, which are your hearts’ sincere "desires, will be an- swered "spontaneously and automati- cally as you bring your bodies’ into subjection and relax. your -cons<'3‘iou's mentality. Isn’t -that a Wonderful privilege, dear ones? ‘I want to go through with You,’ I heard you say. You have been talking about This My It Mighty Presence, and talking about this Love and My Infinite Mercy. You are recognizing it and because you recognize it it -will be recognized ‘and realized in you and amongl you as the “blessing comes through and as I take you safely, “I want to go jtlirouigh‘ . through, V. ’ I ih3’+‘..3.?1‘~€i' tar» :, The . worm" . GOING THROUGH A VVITH HIM These thoughts are well worth cdnsidering. If you will live Evan- gelically whole-heartedly, then and there you are going through with Me. You are going through with Me by living in all of. your words, deeds and actions the same at My Personal Absence as .you do in My. Personal Presence. You are denying the Reality of your own. testimony ‘ and your own version if you are not the same at -My ‘Personal Absence as you are in My Personal Pres- ence. A When you declare that Iam GOD, when you say you know I am here to stay, how dare you act or speak or say one word at My Personal Absence you would not say or speak in My Personal Presence. I heard you say; ‘I want to go through.’ It is indeed wonderful! You cannot go through with Me unless you be the same when I am apparently absent as you are in My Personal Presence. You are deny- ving your own version, therefore, in ‘your actions you ‘are speaking loud- er than the words audibly spoken. When you .are acting differently you do not believe your own testi- mony. Now isn’t that Wonderful! NO OCCASION T0 FRET ‘OR WORRY Jot these thoughts down in your vocabularies and ‘if you will live in the Light of this Understanding, exactly according to My Version and according to My Teaching from every angle expressible, lo I will be with you now, henceforth and fat-rever,—youl will not have an oc- casion to fret nor worry. These thoughts yarewell worth considering, because you say you want to go through-," with Me,——not only saying you want’ to go through with Me but you say you want to see Me over here with you quite often. Now, if that is ‘true, be the same when I am Personally with you as whenpl am Personally Absent from you,_—if you do, in every word, in every deed and every action, every emotion and every expression, then and there you are declaring in real- ity,.IV’am ,E'ver-‘Res nt“ but, if you. isnig _.’v My p Pres- re, -and Saturday, October 31 somehow you will find_when some- thing comes along I will apparently be albsent from your presence, for you yourself ‘have brought about the separation automatically and caused My Presence not to express scienti- fically in the way of protection at the time of trials and at the times of tribulations. ful! THE ARMS ‘OF FLESH- A FAILURE I heard you say; ‘I want to go through with You.’ Every little Angel in the, building, not" only in the building, but every believer ‘whether you are great or small in bodily form, your Love and Devotion should be the same at My Personal A-bsence as it is in My Personal Presence. You should be as devout and true and as loving and as «kind one to» the other Evangelically at My Personal Absence as you are in My Personal Presence. If there be the least deviation among you, the enemy can come in and that last enemy which is commonly known by the religions and by the Apostle ‘Death,’ if you will allow yourselves to deviate -from what you would do in My Personal, Presence when Iam Personally Absent. I heard you say: ‘I want to go through with you.’ If you want to , go through with Me, dear ones, ‘the arms of ﬂesh will “fail you, you dare not trust your own.’ Your own arms of flesh, the mortal version, "such an arm from that angle of ex- pression will be a‘failure in the time of trials and tribulation; but, if you recognize "My Presence at My seeming Absence and live exactly accordingly, lo. I will be with you Victoriously and give you power to overcome every difficulty. That is the Mystery! GOD’S SPIRIT VIBRATES . THE PHYSICAL BODY So, live in this Recognition, dial in on the Fundamental continuously, and lo I will be with you. When I say; ‘Here you ,_ are and there I am, there -I sit and here you stand,’ the very Spirit of My Infiniteness will vibrate your physical bodies in the Presence of the Almighty at the recognition of »His Holiness, for you will be the fulfillerof it. Isn’t that _Wo,nderful! _ _ Y ‘!1‘l\1en»_2[A -sa,y,-gif you want t i ‘Me, Why come at‘ Isn’t that Wonderi Satllrday, October 81st, 1936 Be the same!—teachers and instruc- tors of the little angels, do by them the same at My -Personal Absence as you would in My Personal Pres- ence, from every angle expressible, for if you do not, you are a traitor and a deceiver, deceiving and dis- puting yourself and not only dis- p'i1ting yourself but refuting your- self, whichever. TRANSMITTING’ srmrr TO MAN Oh! the thoughts are well worth considering. GOD’S Presence should be considered and it should be re- cognized at all times and when" I say; ‘Here you are and there Iam,’ if you take My Words in and be- lieve what I say, then you are Me transmittingly and I am you, for I have unified Myself with you that you might be unified with Me, and, as this is accomplished, through re- incarnation, it will be brought to fruition in your systems. When this is established in reality, you will become to be the Personification of that of which I am stressing. What- soever I may speak into words and it touches your heart or your mind, I will materialize the same in your bodily form and your body will be- .. come to be the Personiﬁcation of the Wovrds I have Spoken. CONCEIVED THROUGH REINCARNATION I said: PEACE! GOOD HEALTH,‘ GOOD WILL and 3. GOOD APPE- TITE. I said; GOOD MANNERS and GOOD BEHAVIOUR. I said: ALL WISDOM, ALL KNOWLEDGE and ALL, UNDERSTANDING, I said: ALL MAJESTY, DOMINION and AUTHORITY,—these Words I have spoken into your consideration, now I conceive them through reirrcarnation and bring them to fruition in your , conscious mentality and in your sys- tem . . . when this is accomplished you’ will become to be the personiﬁ- cation of them. You will be the 7, Personiﬁed HEALTH I’ have spoken 'into existence, the Personiﬁed Joy and Peace and Happiness; you will be the Personified SUCCESS and PROSPERITY and any and all oth- _ er Desirable Expressions, for you will be the-transmission and the reﬂec-, ._ -tion,-not only the reflection but the ., yard manifestation of "_CHRI,ST, ur’LORD. and ,yourSAVIOR.. 5 rows _ The "srolmw womrv. A UNIVERSAL UTOPIA ‘The. tree is told by the fruit it bears.’ Through My Condescension My Spirit and My Presence, in Love and in Mercy, has truly come.’ I am transmitting_Myself to all humanity even though they may not under- stand it. I am transmitting Myself to them that all humanity might eventually be the reincarnation and the reproduction and the re-personi- ﬁcation of that which I have Spoken into existence. When this is accom- plished we shall have a universal Utopia, for the Kingdoms of this world shall have become to be the Kingdom of our GOD’ and His CHRIST, and all of the detesta-ble and destructive forces of nature’s creation would not be able to pro- hibit you from expressing Perfection, for Perfection will be manifestedly, incorruptible, undeﬁled and will not fade away, HIS IDENTICAL SPOKEN WORD Take these thoughts to considera- ltion. You have -the privilege to ex- press it scientiﬁcally, for GOD Him- self is with you,-if you sincerely be- lieve Me. Then I say, perceive the Words I have said, the Idea I have conveyed,——as you perceive the Idea of what I have said you will also con- ceive My Identical Spoken Word, and when this shall have been material- ized in‘ your conscious mentality and in your body, your body will become to be the Personiﬁcation of that which I have spoken——if it is Health,. Happiness, Peace, Success and'Pros- perity, all of these Qualities you will _become to be the Personiﬁcation of, Isn’t that Wonderful! For 10 these many years I have been speaking into your considera- tion: Peace! Good Health, Good‘ Will and a Good Appetite, Good Manners and Good Behavior. I have been speaking into your consideration: HERE" YOU ARE ‘AND THERE I -AM—THERE I SIT AND HERE YOU STAND. I have spoken these thoughts into _consideration,—with the right Concept of them you should become to be the Personiﬁcation of that which I have spoken into your consideration. Isn’t that Wonderful! By, this, all mankind will eventual- ly be partakers of ‘My Characteristics’ and of ME;_fr in misery. and sor- lli Set: them free, the Page 5‘ ' Kingdoms of this world shall be the Kingdom of * our GOD and His CHRIST, and all the universe, where- soever man is found, will be brought into subjection to this. The CHRIST and His Own Mind; for He shall have at that time been Enthroned on the Throne of the minds of men—and CHRIST Himself in‘Love and Mercy with His Own Majesty and with the Spirit of Accurateness shall rule over all mankin-d. When this is accom- plished, then and there there will be no more woe, for GOD Himself will have all Dominion and all of the Kingdoms of the earth and all gov- ernment universally will’ become to be a Utopia. Isn’t it a privilege, dear ones! RECOGNIZE GOD’S EVERPRESENCE I shall not be discouraged, neither cease to function, until I shall have accomplished that for which I came; -but remember, every living creature’ among you must recognize My Actu- ‘ al Presence when I am apparently Absent, I say you must recognize My Actual Presence when I am ap- parently absent and be the same in words, deeds and actions as you would be in My Personal Presence,—- ,I said, as you would be in My Per- sonal Presence! , When this is true to you and in you, sickness and sorrows, accidents and disappointments and failures, and all such as have been among the children of men, will be no more among them. I believe I have said enough. From now, henceforth and forever every , True Believer, I demand your pray- erful attention at My seeming Ab- sence and your sincere Devotion at My apparent‘ Absence, that you might be as devout to ‘Me in words, deeds and actions at My Apparent Absence- as you are in My Personal Presence-. That is the only way to make the earth the Heaven. That is the only way, for GOD ALONE SHALL REIGN,—and every other idea and opinion concerning Me from any an- gle expressible and from all expres- sions must be dethroned from the Throne of your mind. You must recognize My Ever-Pres- ence and lean not on ‘the arms of ﬂesh for, ‘the arms of flesh will fail . you, you dare not trust your own.’ Matters not what may have come . and matters -not what has gone, if you _Page 6, allow anything to get between you and your Maker, .then and there you will be the loser,—GOD cannot fail" you, you will fail yourself once and g -‘forever. I thank you. Letter to the Editor ’ PEXEE Santa Barbara, Calif. Mr. Honaeel, Editor, I The Spoken Word, I 36 W. 115th St.,. New York City, N. Y. Dear Brother:~— . L Herewith find an article I have written briefly from a Mighty Re- velation Our'Blessed FATHER DI- VINE——GOD ALMIGHTY so graci- ously gave me. - I FATHER knew I had been trained in electricity and magnetic under- . standing and showed me the minutest details of this TRAGEDY_which so consumed man for his wilful re- fusal to FOLLOW GOD AL- MIGHTY; this FUNDAMENTAL OF GOD, VIBRATING LOVE AND LIGHT. ‘ ‘I wish to assure you that when this Revelation was received the Tremendous the revealing of this SECRET made not only my ‘house shake but it_ shook the whole world. The pans and dishes rattled in our kitchen and it was ‘amazing’ the FORCES that were stirred by the coming of this WONDERFUL REVELATION. ‘If you study this a bit you will see the frightfulness of this Magne- tic DISASTER, for here was the world and humanity caught in its own destructive agency and there was NOTHING in the MIND of man that COULD LIBERATE HIM. ‘I-IIS ONLY hope was to ‘discover that LOVE in IHIS HEART was the TRUE CENTER OF C'ONSCIQUS- he NESS,’ that the LOVE VIBRATING ~ in HIS HEART would RAISE HIM again into his ‘FREEDOM, Domi- nion and Authority. - Now I will call your attention to this.‘ The SCIENTIFIC minds of "the world_ will hoot at this RE- VELATION, for ‘ they believe they KNOW IT ADL, and that the world would go sailing off in space if it were not for .the MAGNETIC IPOLES; but GOD;-Our Dear ‘FA- THER 'DIVINE—-will ISUB'STAN- - TIATE‘ ALL or THIS TO YOU,‘ I K,NOW. 3-’ .. » ‘.;V. -P Commotion caused by \ VVVV‘vVvVVVVVvvVvVVVvv -.'~: . r . ' The :‘7S_f’Ql£j,'llV‘ worm" I also call your attention to this. WHERE does the SCIENTIFIC “MIN‘D" get its advice that the world would slip if it were not for the MAGNETIC POLES? That is some more of the IGNORANCE OF THE "HUMAN MIND-; for on what do the MAGNETIC POLES REST? Answer that. They can't. ALSO the “META-PHYS*ICIANS” WILL FLARE UP OVER THIS be- cause you have shown them their systems are WORTHLESS; for they were promoting. the “USE OF .TI-IOUGHT” as an agency of “DE- ‘JMONSTRATING GODS WITH US,” "and there is NO GOD IN IT. Jesus warned NOT to ‘try and cast out ' ‘Satan with ‘Satan, and HE meant that “GOOD THOUGHTS” would not cast out the effects of evil “;THOUGlI-ITS," for it is a divided HOUSE; ‘MIND is not the CHRIST c0NsCIoUsNEss';~’ ‘ BUT LOVE‘ VIBRATING FROM THE HEART WILL. IRAISE IT-—ALL ALL-—-up again to the 100,000,000 vibrations per second of SELF..CONSCIOUS—— SELF-LUMINOUS LOVE, THE CHRIST 'CON'SCI'OUSNES'S. FATHER DIVINE is this GREAT VIBRATING HOLY ‘SELF-CON- SCIOUS, SELF-LUMINOUS LOVE that is RAISING the world ‘again to the GLORY PROMISED in RE- ' THANK YOU FA-' -VELATION. ‘Saturday, October I3‘_1's;t; I936 I Potatoes are tubers, radishgls are roots, onions are bulbs, cabbages are leaves, tomatoes are fruits, and beans are seeds. lg ' ’— ‘ 5'.

Found Freedom Here . Perhaps Providence did «prepare this American Continent to be aplace of the second chance. Certainly, mil- lons of men and women have made it that. They adopted this homeland because in this land they found a home in which the things they most desired could be theirs-—freiedom of opportunity, freedom of thought, freedom to worship God. Here they _fo1__1n_d life, because there, there was ‘freedom to live. It is the memory of , all" these e:_ager,-seeking _mi11ions that makes. « this of. America’s places of: great .. .._romance.

Chose New Customs We take satisfaction in the thought that those who have left their na- tive land to join us may still retain here their affection for some things left behind-old customs,’ old lan- guage, old friends. Looking to the future, they wisely choose that their children shall live in the new lan- guage and in the new customs of our new people. And thosechildren more and more realize, their common des- tiny in America. That isvtrue whether their forebears came past this place eight g.e.nera1:ions.ag.o» or only one- The realization that we are all ‘bound togethier by hope Of. 3 Com- mon future rather than by reverence for a common past has helped us to build upon this continent a unity un- approached in any similar area or similar-size population in the W,11.0Ie world.‘ For all our millions of square miles, for allour millions of people, there is a unity in language and speech, in law and economics,'in edu- cationiand in general purpose which nowhere finds its match.- It was the hope of those who gave us this statue and the hope of the American people in receiving it that the Goddesseof -Liberty and the ‘Goddess of Peace were the same. The grandfather, of my old friend the French Ambasador and those who helped him make this gift possible were citizens of a great sister re- public established on the principle of the democratic form of government. Citizens of .all democra-cies unite in their desire for peace, Grover Cleve- land fifty years ago recognizedthat unity of purpose on this veryispot. He suggested that liberty enlight- ening the World would extend her rays from these shores in every oth- er nation. . . Adds Message of Peace Today the symbolism should ‘be broadened. erty which America sends to all the ‘world must be added her message of peace. . . Even in times as troubled and un- certain as these, I still hold to the faith that a better civilization than any we have known isvin store for ’‘'_America and by our example, per- To the message of lib-. haps, for the world. Here destiny seemsfto‘ have taken a long look, Into this continental reservoir there - has been Phured untold and untapped wealth of human resources. Out of that reservoir—out' of the melting ’pot—the; rich promises which the New World held out to those who came to it from many lands is find- ing fulfillment. T" e The richness ofwthe promise has not run out. If we keep the faith A ( \ '_riie' “sroxnixr WORI)” for our day as those who came be- fore us kept the faith for theirs, then you and I can smile with confidence .into the future. , .. It is fitting, therefore, that this ‘should be a service of rededication to the li-berty and the peace which this statue symbolizes. Liberty and peace are living things. In each generation —if they are to be maintained——they must be guarded and vitalized anew.

Therefore we present to our readers a point of view_ from the Advisory Board of the American Committee for the Protection of Foreign Born. The following letter was sent'to President Roosevelt and signed by Professor John Dewey, Professor Robert Morse Lovett, Professor Bernhard J. Stern, Roger Baldwin, Congressman Vito Marcantonio, Rab- bi Edward L. ‘Israel and Carol King, all members of the,Board:;=K..i_. , “We understand: through press re- ‘ ports that you have accepted. an in- vitation to be present at the exer- cises commemorating the‘ 50th anni- versary of thestatue of -Liberty to beheld October 28th on.

B More than .a quarter of‘ a century ago Britain had ‘her “brain trust” when the Liberal Ministry came into power, having as its directors a Cabinet including among others John Morley and Winston Churchill, and out of the co-efforts of this notable assembly of statesmen came the modern British ant/ecedant of our own NRA. As a matter of fact, ,the NRA in’ England really came into being ‘more than a century ago in a series of measures of factory regulation sponsored by Lord Ash- ley. At the present time IE-ng1and’s industry is thoroughly» regulated as to Working conditions, wages, trade _pra.ctices, and the like.

At the present time England's in- A dustry is thorougly regulated as to working conditions, wages, trade practices, and the like. English agriculture has also fallen under legislative control, the .pro- , ducti-ve as well as the marketing end, and the whole farm situation is wregimentedto a degree never dream- ed of by «Pres. Roosevelt. This regi- mentation seems to be fair and de- sirable, since both the processors ’ and the consumers ‘continue to vote for its continuance. Finances are under far more ‘stringent regulations there th-an here, as the British took their first steps toward the solution of the problem more than half a century: ago. There has been but one bank failure -anywhere in -the British Isles in the last 150 years, and that was in 1873. That compares very favor- ably with our ‘ own record of more than 6,000 crashes during’ President Hoover's administration alone. Social security legislation was passed in England 25 years ago and since, that time has been strictly en- forced. ‘ .The King of Siam used to present a White Elephant '.to. the caurtiers whom he wished to ruin.

' Grasslioppersl Transform A few years close of the i Civil War, farmers in ’ the‘ Middle West and many other sections of the World began. to believe the curse of locusts visited upon an- cient Egypt had been called down -upon them. As a matter of fact, it had. Great clouds of flying grass- hoppers, called locusts in the Old World, '.se'ttled down"out of the sky on rfgreen fields, ‘and when they arose the crops were. gone. When these vast" swarms of hoppers passed overhead they blotted out the sun" for hours.‘ And when, in the hardest hit areas‘, they settled to earth, ‘ they "covered the ground three‘ inches, deep. Drive wheels of big. locomo'tives slipped on covered with the crushed bodies of the insects and "trains, were stalled. Crops were 'wiped7“"out. In a few years, however, all the flying hop- pers d-isappgeared and since then all grasshopper advances on -~‘Wéstern-- fields have been made’ along ”the— ground where the control ,metli6as» of the farmers are more 'effecf»iv”‘e".' t ’ But through all the ‘ye‘ars—'th‘att since“ “the. last de- have followe structive swar‘ darkened the ‘sky the question as to ' what‘ happened to them has never been very" satis- factorily answered. However, Dr. J. R. Parker, of the ' Department of Agriculture,‘ now believes he» has the answer. And -this ’ answer is, “nolthing.” Dr. Parkerr has conduc“t- ' ed experiments A in 'his_ laboratory and found the" gieie‘sho’pg‘ers‘ lthatwhave been’ hopping‘ along "the 4‘'*ground ' in recent years are the?‘.§b.’me ‘as } those =whi_ch ' flew‘ through the air. in "the ‘"18"fO'S7~&1id ~'du.r‘i1ig V the 5:days of an- cien-ft Egypt. ‘ He iouiicr that ‘under ‘certain conditions ‘t1_ie“jhop‘p’er’ is transformed into theflylér, and he "explains "the transformation as a ‘ kervefsthe spe- cies.‘ In. his laborat yilbr.

Dorothea Antel——-the I"‘Sun- shine Girl” One of the sunniest rooms in the _ city is that -of New York’s “Sunshine Girl,” Dorothea Antel, who for four- teen years has lain still~—awaiting the perfect cure, which she still ex- pects. The fame‘ of the “Sunshine Gir ,”‘ who was injured in a Hartford theater long ago, as she was pass- ing down the" stairway from her dressing-room to the stage, has spread well over ‘the world. "Like Nellie Revell she is a favorite" «of stage folk, and now that Nellie has. faith is. been healed, _ Dorothea’s stronger than ever. While Miss Revell has supported herself with’ her writings, Miss Antel has been a business: woman, con- ducting a charming gift shop on Sev- enty-second Street, not far from her apartment. A business-like work table swings over her bed; there is a telephone -on , a stand -at her other side, a_nd here, with busy hands and voice and “sunshiny” face she keeps ‘hard at work early and late. Her room is always a bower of birds and flowers. Winter can make no headway against the charm that , abides there. ‘ , But the winter season, particularly the approach of the holiday ‘season, is the busiest time of the year for the “Sunshine Girl,” for it is then that one phase of her business, the sale of greeting cards, is largest. Small orders to individuals, big or- ders to great corporations keep hands’ and tongue _ﬂying. _ - And a part of the holiday work that Dorothea enjoys most-is shar- T ing her success with others. For all over the ‘country, women and girls who need’ to add to their earnings.are taking orders for the beautiful box- es of greeting 'car_,!s., They scat- _ A faith and hope. ter the sunshine of the “Sunshine Girl" to manyijother lives and homes‘, and find brighter sunshine themselves as they do so. And one -of the-things about it _that makes ‘Dorothea. hap- piest of all is the fact that she can—— or at least that s-he idoes——pay such generous commissions—ﬁf~ty per cent on all orders—With extra bonuses for heavier orders.

Accord- ing to the tradition, after the angels appeared in Bethlehem to herald the Birth they planted, be- fore they left the earth, two acorns in a Walsingham meadow (Which, according to Egyptologists, was even at that time in possession of a highly civilised" community), and set their seal on them in order that the resulting trees should stand as a testimony until the -Second Com- ing. According to the legend, the falling of the oak on the 7th Sep- tember should be a warning that the Millenium is drawing very near. About four -feet of the: trunk of the tree remains standing, and is hollowed out ,like a font, It would be interesting to know whether the reputed age of the tree is an actual fact. In the moonlight it presents a curious spectacle, as the inside of the fall- en -portion’. is pulp and glistens with phosphorus. The two oldest known trees in Walsingham, which were mention- ed in Domesday Book, were cut down two years ago as their tilt over the road by St. Peter's Church was considered unsafe for ‘traffic. Their sections, however, showed a. considerably newer condition than that of the fallen oak in the park. —-Wisbech Advertiser, London, England. .millions and billions PILOT LICENSE COSTS ABOUT $2,600 A Bureau of Air Commerce survey .. shows that it costs about $275 for a 10-weeks flying school course leading to an amateur pilot license.

V Always the Same ‘ 1» The poet sang of the river- » “Men may come and men may go, But I go on forever.” Political campaigns are much like men—they also come and go. Politics created and managed by men whose '’ consciousness includes such misconceptions as fear, greed, and selfishness cannot find that fixed and satisfying foundation for which they seek. Their propositions and promises are houses built on sands that are always broken. While .this is not a. pleasant prospect and is in the category of negation, yet it is all that can be expected of man. The acceptance of the Christ Con- sciousness into politics is ‘the only way the desired goal can be reach- ed and the true brotherhood of man be established. ‘ » Man needs ’ something more than a change of system, he needs a change of heart and until this change comes there will be no satis- fying portion for man. _ This Christ Consciousness was of- fered 'to the Politicians and political parties I by FATHER DIVINE and has apparently not been accepted,- but’ is hasbeen no loss to GOD for HE is the Changeless. and‘ Perfect -—always the same. Man will either learn. by this true Science of Christ 2 and re-enter Paradise or learn by the hard taskmaster of suffering. We contemplate these experiences or appearances and wonder, but we soon contact HIS Mind and Spirit and look through His eyes and re- joice with the Psalmist and repeat with him, “Thou wilt show me the path of life, in Thy presence is ful- , ness of joy, at thy right Hand there \ are pleasures forever!" .

The famous case of Earl Browder in Terre Haute, Indiana, in which the Communist candidate was denied a radio permit and the consequent court decision refusing an injunction are too well known to all. Recently in El Centro, California, in the rich Imperial Valley, a Communist can- _didate for oﬂice was forced out of ‘ town and menaced by a mob. There have been other cases but their men- tion may be passed over here. In conjunction with these offenses have come leagues and organizations against one groupnor another, in-, spired -by the agitation and discus- sion centering about Communism, Fascism, etc., egg-..:_. In_Ho1lyw-ood has been formed The League Against gNazism. In, San has been formed The League Against Communism. Then too, we have The League Against War and Fascism. . Surely no one will minimize the. extent and nature the offenses committed against _1i-berty and free- . dom in these United States today and the implications these incidents have in the. direction of Fascism and the, destruction of democratic liberties, But all of these organizations are‘ , “against” something or other. It is time to be “for” something if we are. to deal with the positive and makeany real progress, , Let us be “for” Peace, Freedom, Harmony, Plenty, j,.Justi,ce and all the other things we earnestly desire to see come into expression.

(As FATHER paused in His dis- course, one of the brothers seated at the Banquet Table referred to . , the individual whom FATHER was " ' using as a sample and an example " W universally, and- stated in part: FATHER: Referring to the per- sonal feelings, I noticed something there last night that the brother had a pair of socks‘ on his hand and the question was “asked: "Why?” And he said when he moved his hand on the bed it pro- duced a queer feeling, a_ sensation, and that removed it and I feel that is a lack of conﬁdence in GOD. The brother just whispered to me and ‘said on one occasion, one of .the clearing streams of the body refused to function and ‘he asked Me to give him a dose of salts. That is actually doubting the pow- er of GOD. We all can see. clearly what hinders the speedy recovery. FATHER : Not so much of what he soughtfor after getting in that condition, but , the thought was what caused the {_‘Tf~: condition -to result, and after having gotten into that condition naturally “ you cannot think perfectly in an im- perfect s-tate of being. , Your physical structure is the out- , ward expression of your conscious 4 l1;l_iinking,, in other words it must be ’ [the outward expression of your pre- . 9 body is the manifestor of thoughts A . icqnceived mentally previously, there- you cannot expect for an im- "‘_,_\,'p fect person to think perfectly.

The "SPOKEN worn)" a person hasgone, where Spirit and My Presence cannot apparently come, there is something, some way and some means whereby I have pre- pared to reach the condition of the minds of such persons, ACCORDING TO . THEIR FAITH As I have aforesaid, if for any, cause conditions cannot be reached by My Spirit, when a person has gotten into a place where ‘My Spirit -cannot reach the condition and give them relief, My Spirit and My Mind would release such, things to them that would appe«al,to them at ‘times’, and ‘by they having such things re- leased to them that would appeal to them according to, their Fa-ith, it might reach their, condition for My Name’s Sake. ‘ , _I am not trying to enforce My Mind and My -Standard upon another, especially when they have not ac- cepted it,,in reality‘ whereby My Spir- 'it and My Mind could have hereto- fore protected them. If My Spirit and My Mind could not protect him . from getting in the condition he is now in, how do you, expect for My Mind__and My Spirit to reach him and get him out_ of it saving by he m-akinggthe contact such as he can make from the standard of his think- ing. It.,is‘ Wonderful! If you stayin My Spirit and My Mind and stay self-denied in all things and liveexactly according to My Te»aching'°from every angle ex- pressible, there would be no’ occa- sion for any disasters, accidents or failures, for you will be in-perfect harmony with your Maker; but, when you are not, you may place yourself ‘in a place whereby you will be obli- wgedi to resort to "something that is not altogether with My Standard of thinking, because you are in that cat- egory. " * ’ i STAY IN PERFECT FELLOWSHIP WITH GOD Now, in thisparticular experience it is evidently known, if he had not been sent to the hospital or had something done ‘from a medical or from a physical. point of view he would not have been living today in. the state of mind he was in, for M-y V Spirit and My Presence undersuch conditions could not harmoniously reach him to lift! him. The contact is made through mentality, in Page 19 other words- through your thought and through your harmonious think- ing and through your being in a place where My Spirit and My Presence can reach you. See? That is the Mystery! A A - e That is Why, it is good and it is the best of allto stay in perfect Fellow- ship with GOD, refusing to do or say anything that would bring a division between you and your GOD by ac- tions, by words or by -deeds, that would cause a deviation from His Word, for if you deviate fnom His Word in the least you may ﬁnd your «contact may not be such as you could get results even if something, would appear. That is the Mystery. LEAST DEVIATION MAY DETACH The least deviation from the Word and the Will of’ GOD in your con- -sci-ous consideration, which is to say «the least conscious deviation‘ from GOD_’S‘ Will, Way or Word or De- . sire or Good Pleasure, then and there that‘ slight deviation may cause you to be detached and prohibit the Spir- it from making the contact. In and at the time of such disasters, the contact may be slight but if there is the least deviation it may not make the contact. Take these electric bulbs up here, the_slightest turn of one may cause the slightest deviation from the con- ~ tact in the socket and when the cur- rent is turned on by switching it on at the switch, the contact may not be made with the bulb and -therefore you may not get a light, but, as soon as you slightly.tighten it in the socket, when the switch is turned on‘ the transmission of the current through‘ the socket will make the contact in- stantaneously with the bulb, and if the bulb is perfect you will get the Iight immediate1y_ - CURRENT CUT OFF _ So, the least deviation may cause your current to be cut off complete- ly. That is why it is essential to be in perfect harmony with your Maker, A with His’ Will, His Way and His Own Good Pleasure by denying yourself Whole-heartedly even as Jesus did and declare to GOD, “FAT-HER, it is not my will -but Thy Will be done,” Not merely declaring it in Words, but let, it be said in Actions and in Deeds, matters not Where you are: .»I1si1’t ” liness of GOD.

While thinking along this line I thought for consideration that a na- tional and also an international in- vestigation might well be considered that, mankind universally might know the Standard of Civilization that I have lifted as a Sample and as an Example for all humanity. The question comes forth at times; "What is ‘ FATHER ‘DIVINE doing? Itis so far.-reaching, it isso far con- vincing to millions of intelligent peo- ple that He is GOD.” A material investigation might be essential that they might see just what I am do- ing morally among the slum districts and other places in the way of clean- liness, in the Way‘ of morality and other moral expressions, as well as the economic system,-.-teachiri-g all ~ctLvilization true economics, how to be econ0Ir1;ica_1 and how to live according to same and yet express the Abun- dance of the Fullness, even as I do and even as I am. “I THANK YOU FATHER” I-t ‘cools: seventy‘ years to build the .. capitol at Washington, D.

If we sow to the -spirit—’LOV\E—~we shall of the Spirit reap the life that is everlasting. This truth was ‘perceived by the early Hebrew .prophets, but their teaching, like -teaching of Je- sus; -degenerated into a system of empty V ritualistic, observances _.and outward profession. , Jesus exposed all that, with. the inevitable result of his ‘persecution and violent death at the instigation of the priests the elders of the orthodox religion. =1,-Ie summed up THE‘ LAW, controlling the affairs of men-—that law which, he said, he came“not to destroy but to put in- to practice,”—in a very few words: Therefore whatsoever ye would that men should do untoy-ou -do ye even so unto them, for this is THE ‘LAW and the teaching of the ~prop“hets.

As we adjust ourselves to the, LAW OF LOVE we contact the !Spirit of Love because we have come into harmony with it and if we love one another as John -said God dwelleth in us because .He hath given us of His, Spirit. This is the re-generation of man. It is his‘ awakening to the New-Old vision of the Fatherhood of God and brotherhood of man result- in in the New Socialism of “what, is mine is thine, instead of ‘what is thine is mine’.” This is the ex- planation of the words of Jesus, “It is more blessed to giv-e than to receive.” When the affairs of men and na- tions are adjusted to this LAW, and not before, for the LAfW,w_i1l* not adjust itself to man, then we shall have a United States of the World, a co-operative commonwealth, each working for the good of all, each giving himself in service instead of demanding the service of others, willing to share what we have rather than wrest from our neighbour his share. Such was the vision of the prophets, such ‘should be the result of the teaching of all the Great World Teachers. Is that also your vision and mine’? If it is, then let us WORK for it. We are “free? from THE LAW” only when by the power of The Spirit of Love within we live in harmony with It. , ¢, , Francis Bell, Dundee, lscotland.

The “SPOKEN WORD” SAOCIAL SECURAITY To begin, with, this Social Security Act should not be made the football Both parties are com- ‘n'iitted to the principle. The Repub- \licans are turning their heaviest guns upon it. I am in sympathy with ‘some of their criticisms, but they have not told us how they would ap- ply the principle_ The Social Security Act has two {sections dealing with security against -"want -in -old age, and it has two meth- ods of obtaining the funds to pay the «pensions. These methods are -direct- ly opposed_to each other. One meth- 10d is to pay pensions out of tax revenues; the other method is to,cre- ate a fund by assessments -on the wages of those who are to receive the pensions. According to the ﬁrst, the old ’ should be paid a pension just as sol- diers receive it. Soldiers give their lives” in defense of the country, and by so doing they put society in debt to them; and society should pay them by setting aside a certain amount of the National income to pay it. The aged have given their lives to build -up the National income; thus they have put society in debt to the-m, and should be paid out of the National income when they reach the ‘age of sixty-ﬁve. According to the secbnd method, the aged must provide the funds to This is done in the Social ‘Security Act by assess- ing the wages of the employees and compelling the employers to pay a like sum. The ﬁrst method is natural and just,“ and in accordance with Amer- ican ideals. The secondmethod is harbitrary and compulsory, and is a ‘complete departure from the Amer- icanideal. The American idea is that the individual‘ shall be left free to stipulate his own conditions.‘ These two plans are contained in We might ﬁjompulsory Insurance Plan. ‘ he Pension Plan provides -that the féderal Government shall a1 donation to the States, pay- By SAIVIUEL R‘. MAXWELL ing to each State an amount of money equal to the amount of money provided by the State. State would set aside, ﬁfteen dollars -for each aged person, the Federal Government would put up the same amount, giving the aged person thir- ty dollars per month. The Compulsory Insurance Plan is set up in the same Act, and .is as follows: After next January, wher- ever eight or more’ persons are em- ployed by any concern, the Federal Government will collect from the wages of each worker a certain per- centage of his wages, and a like percentage from the employer. This money/ will be held by the Federal Government; and out of this fund the Government will begin in 1942 to pay pensions to all those who have reached the age of sixty-ﬁve, The amount of the pension will de- pend upon the wages paid andthe length of time the recipient has worked. At the start it will be 1% of the worker's wage, and 1% from the employer, each ‘week. Thisper- centage will increase to 3%_ This means that the Government will have to keep track of that employee for forty-seven years and keep. collecting from his wages; and at the same time keep collecting from‘ his employer a like amount. ' This system will cover about twen- ty-six million individuals. It does not include farmers, house servants, or housewives. It would take a huge army of Governm-en-t employees "to administer such a system. The workersare constantly shifting. Now they have a job, and nowthey don’t. This Ac-t would -put into the hands of the Government the huge sum of ﬁfty thousand million dollars, and create a -huge army of Government employees tha_t__is not in accordance with the American ideal. It is a system of compulsion which has no place amongst a free people. In ad- dition to this, it would result in the impounding of a vast sum of mO11ey instead of having this money i.n«us.e to supply daily needs. The Sogial, Security Act should be improved at this point. The second Thus, if the I P555 21 plan, which is compulsory, should be abandoned; and the ﬁrst plan, involv- ing the pension idea paid out of pub- lic income, should be employed to carry the principle into operation. The Republicans have not told us how they would put this principle into execution. The principle has be- come a living part of our thought and purpose. Republicans get old as Well as Democrats. The Social Security Act is not po- litical; it is purely economic, and should be carried out in accordance with the American ideal. The for- mulators of the Act, while they may have been animated by an ideal, were not practical in the application.

It is our efforts to run business on the opposite principle which got us, as well as the rest of the country, into ’ such a mess; and now, unprepared as wevmay be to undertake it, we've got. to give ﬁrst ,consideration to the common good in all our business deal- ings, if we are ever again to achieve any lasting business’ success. If, banking directed in the interest of bankers, or business directed main- . ly in» the interest of business men‘ could again achieve an -lasting suc- cess ,the case» would; velsy differ- ent. _But that si-mplylisi not possible. Modern. machinery has made it im- possible. Bankers and business men new depend for »-their personal suc- cess upon the successful ‘-operation of our modern machines; and these ma- , chines can be successfully. operated only if their products are fully dis- tributed. , , V But who is to fully consume their products? Bankers and business men surely can not, These products must ‘ be distributed to the masses if they are to be distributed ‘adequately; and if. they are not adequately dis- tributed, the machines. can not be kept in ’_ operation and the masses can "not" be kept, employed. the other lia,nd‘,_;*it they "emf ‘adequately distil- 0" Iwealt-hl, such power over ‘others. I satunlay, . October" 31st, ‘lose buted, poverty is thereby abolished, and human life, for the first time in . human history is liberated to turn -' its ‘attention to something beyond the mere struggle for survival. ‘ " But that isn't all. By this next and necessary forward step in human evolution, the struggle of man against , man largely comes to an end. We are , already one in fact, but then of ne- "cessity comes the consciousness of V our unity. Then we shall know that we are one family. Then We shall be liberated to really co-operate one with another. And this, let us remember, is not “crack-pot” idealism.‘ It is plain economics and simple arith- metic. But when a business man gets out his pencil and addsupthese facts, do you see why he will be unable to ’ keep religion out of distribution?_ "I am making no class appeal. Quite the contrary, I am appealing rather against the theory that those‘ who have, no matter how honestly, come. into great possessions, are thereby endowed with some ‘divine right to control the economic and spiritual destinies of their fellow men. To pay wages, for instance, which do not permit a decent home environment; to take profits which do not permit adequate distribution to the masses; and to count among their American liberties the liberty to continue, busi- ness in a way which can have no other result than nation-wide depres- sion. Such a theory of our. rights, un- fortunately, is not conﬁned to the pos- sessors of special privilege. This un- social theory is so ingrained in our social tradition tllat‘we ‘often think of it as selfishness or as human na- _ ture. But human nature, as I see it, is basically the will to survive, and I don’t know how we could, ever do without it. If people think they can survive best by getting ahead of one another, I shall . expect them to go on trying, as a general rule, to get ahead of one another. Vvhen they come to see, however, that their best ’ chance of survival is through get- ting ahead with one another, they will inaugurate co-operation. ‘ 9 In a sense, I- myself am a bene- , ﬁciary of special privilege, and many of my fellow businessmen are not only mystiﬁed‘ but irritated I that I should be seeking the way out 0t 8 * , system which gives me, through my em .';. iseeea; 0°F‘.>i‘”§¥.:‘~.’r1S*»i 1939'. -. can‘ comniarid their services: I can even threaten them with unemploy- , ment, if they doxrt do what I tell _ , " them to do.

We have passed out of the master—and-servant age into 13 ’ age makes it necessary that -the masses be employed, not in serving any favored group but in serving one another—in serving everyone. There ‘is a great new system o.f distribution developing in America— a systein which, if it works, will help business tremendously, by enabling millions in our lowest-income groups «to buy, and.-therefore to have far more than was-ever possible before. I am speaking of the consumer co- operative system, It is inte~re'sting to note how some of our American busi- nessmen are viewing it. Do .they say it won’t work?-“‘N5. They are alarmed, rather, lest it ‘put ‘ 1 /them out of business; which i—s-‘an’ admission, on vtheir,part,' that they consider it a more eﬁicient system of distribution than is the one in which theyiare engaged. ' Now, that's a most interesting point of view——both from the stand- ‘ point of religion and ‘of business. As a student of business, I can assure them that the consurrier co-operative movement, if it succeeds ‘in’ serving the ’ masses’ better than they have been -sér've'd, will help ‘instead of in-' -; _ * -- juring aill" leg’i'tirn’ate' business: They" ;_UI'ieed hot -be‘ ‘alarmed, then, for fear ' it will succeed.

Whether such complaints jcome from the intrenched interests ‘of Wall Street or from the struggl-, ing little corner grocer, those who make them need not only a busi- ness but a spiritual awakening. But ‘what are the churches going to do about it? 7 ' There is no issue‘ between true religion and truegbusiness; nor is there . any conﬂict between: the true interests of businessmen and the " "true interests of all- concerned.

Can we look to our churches for leader- ship in this practical expression of the ‘principles for which they stand? I am glad to say that the answer seems to be: we can. The co-operative movement, to be sure, is basically economic, as was the family and other institutions which have made it possible for man to realize so many of his spiritual ideals. But it is with aspiration and with idealism. It is warmly, humanly passionate; and -it is demonstrating day by day that there is more real satisfaction’ and _ more business success in working to- 'gether for the common good than there ever could be in a "free-for-all struggle on the part of everybody to_ _ get ahead ‘of everybody else. And _, many churches, I am glad to say, of many faiths and creeds ,are al- ready helping to organize such co- operation. For the co-operative movement be- "H longs to all faiths and cneeds. It is a protest against injustice and special privilege, and a protest against every- more than economic. It is charged thing which keeps man working and thinking ,against his fellow man. In that very sense, however, it is all- wembracing. It leaves nebody out. In its very oonstit"l1tion,' it must accept anybody’s application, regardless of ‘race, creed, color or property own- ership; and it must give to each member, no matter how meager his I holdings, as large a voice and vote, as it gives to any other. The co-operative develoopment, hav- ing nothing to do with religious creeds, is essentially religious. It can not help being; for both its theory« and its daily practice are deﬁnite-ly designed to achieve a more abundant life for each by the pjrocess of achievingga more ablmdaitt life to all. .

But the unusual part about this campaign was that the nominees were not the main targets of uncomplimentary remarks. Mr. William Randolph He-axrst was -probably the most outstanding reci- pient.

As a thought came to some indi- vidual a little Awhile ago, -as it did, ‘.‘_,_,_~ when the Com-position ﬁrst came forth, “There’s a plenty, a full and , a plenty for them,” this little Com- % position came forth as a declaration, not merely as an affirmation, but as ' a. declaration to, and for the children of men, that they might kn-ow by the declaration of GbD, there was a FULL and a. PLENTY for them. This ' was actually fulﬁlled, although ‘the number rsufficient to overflow, and to fill all spaces and be {absent from none, and yet have others to ﬁll spaces‘ where there would be none, but; when the declaration came forth as a Compo- sition to substantiate the Believers in the recognition of it, I sung it "vividly, and all apparently agreed with ME, “There was a FULL and a PLENTY for all." There were limitless Blessings just waiting for the speaking them into outer .expression that they might come into observation, that those who were Believers partially might be able to see them in reality, By seeing them in reality, they could and would be with ME with the Spir- R: _ it of sincerity, and could speak the words of My Version, the POSITIVE declaration. o C "TRUST eon AND HE LL TRUST YOU ., “There is a. FULL and a PLENTY for eﬂl.” That little -thought I brought “up. that you might see and know as ;"§Wift1y as you can rightfully and “ghteously receive the Blessings, ,.even so swiftly will the‘ Blessings be poured out upon you. As I was say- the other day, we do not have eugh to receive the limitless Bless- »~i_’ng_s that I AM bringing into outer xpression, for all those who can and ve long since said, it would got I if There's a -plenty, a plenty for all, apparently was a number_ ‘whole-heartedly trust ME; for as _ ~r The "SP()ll£EN worm?’ be justiﬁable for to trust you, if you could not trust ME. It would be a zig-zag affair, but if you can trust ME, I can trust you. GOD will not allow you to trust I-IIM more than you are trusted, for whatsoever you , measure, the same shall be meas- ured, but it is true, there. are a lim- ited few who have made a complete SURRENDER, and are willing to trust GOD ‘Whole-heartedly,-—GOD is willing to trust them a'ccordingly._; WHOLE-HEARTMEDV , SURRENDER. ESSENTIAL ' Still there is a FULL and a PLEN- TY. There are Blessings‘ﬂ-owing free for each and every individual, but you must bring your body into sub- jection and SURRENDER whole- heartedly; by so doing it will be plainly known and seen that GOD will bring into outer expression from the Invisible Realm everything nec- essary for the visible or personal ex- istence. mands from the Material side of life, they must be brought into "outer expression through your aiconscious recognition and realization of that which is Spiritual as" “‘tangibilated,” when it shall have been material- ~ ized., For this cause we are rejoic- ing. , We can see, continually “the ABUNDANCE of the FULLNESS of the Consciousness of Good. no space ' isvacant 'of the FULLNESS’ there-.', of.” It is your privilege to recognize it. You can only recognize it, by ﬁrstly surmising it. If. you can imagine that which is unseen and vividly bring it into your imagination, I can, and will bring it ‘into outer expression, ‘that it might be brought to, your conscious .rea.liza.tion‘, all that which you have imagined, - Suppositions are good, especially if they are POSI- TIVE, especially if they are REAL, especially if they are TRUE and DE- SIRABLE. For. your imagination, I will give you the recognition, and for your ire.-cognition I will give you the realization. Isn't that ‘wonderful, and for your realization, I will give you the substantiation that you might stand ﬁrm, and be not shaken. Isn’t ' that Won’derfu'l?. " (“Truly Wonder- ful!” assured the multitude.) REJOICE ‘IN TRIBULATIONS‘ ; , » Upon this Foundation, ‘if you will stand, all oppesitieizs will be "but 2, Things that your life de- , Page 2'} help and an assistance to help you -on your way to PERFECTION, to get the VICTORY over, every undesirable condition. Then you should rejoice in tribulations, rejoice in oppositions, . rejoice -in criticisms for I have put forth into outer expression ,a Sam- ple and an Example of the mystery and ‘the signiﬁcance of oppositions, of that which comes by oppositions, that which comes by conﬂicts and conflictions. You can and will ap- preciate -from your innermost Soul things that ‘have not yet been heard or told, for those things are lying dormant waiting for the trials of the tribulations to come as was in your experience,—a good many of you, be- fore your ﬁrst-born son was born, there was a travail. ' BE MORE PERSISTENT AS OPPOSITIONS ARISE You must go through tribulations, you must go through oppositions, and these oppositions, the more persistent they are, and the more severe they are, the stronger will be the outcome of your desire. Oh! it is a privilege to realize it, and as I said a little. while ago, RIGI-ITEOUSNESS, TRUTH and JUSTICE shall be legal- ized Universally. I shall bring it through legality, regardless to MY Person or ‘ Pers-onalvity, or Personal Appearance.~ I will accomplish that for which I have endeavored, with or , without a Personality, I shall ac- complish it with or without.an in- dividual expression. Isn’t that won- derful? When the. declaration is made, it is not a declaration as an aﬂirmation of a. person, it is a decla- . ration with or without a person, with or without an individual expression. I need "no longer even so much as have an individual expression to ac- complish‘ My endeavors, I will ac- _complish it if I must needs accom- plish My Endeavors in other expres- sions, and in other personalities and in ‘other individuals and in other ac- tions and emotions. Now ’isn’t that wonderful! LIMI’I‘-LES,S, BLESSINGS FOR ALL _ ’ ' That is the significance of the OMNIPR'.E'S.ENaCE of GOD, and of His OMNISCIENOE and Of I/Iis O*M7NIP'OTElNC'E and of ‘His OMNL -LUCENOE for one and for all. Then L I’ say, “There are limitless Bless- iztgs/’ tE;ere.f0;‘e. there is '9» ﬁlm -/ ,,../ . , \ g Page 28 TY for each and every individual. There are those of you who have been on the tour today for a little while, observing the chicrkens and ducks and cows and horses and hearing about the pigs that are in and under the jurisdiction, the tur- - keys and guineas and geese,—a;lways a, plenty to eat and a plenty of nice clean places to sleep. As I have often said, “The BLOOD has .paid it all.” The sacri- fice of the BODY and the LI‘FiE of GOD in the BODILY FORM has truly paid it all. The sacrifice that was made as a Committee of One, yet representing the ALLNE-SS of GOD and the nothingness of matter, as the sacrifice was made in the PERSON as being termed Person- ality, therefore, I say, you could and should continue to rejoice’ at the re- membrance of the Holiness exempli- fied. The very NAME of GOD among you should be Glorified. You should recognize G~OD’:S NAME as Holy, and you should do according to the Prayer you have prayed from your early existence. You have been taught it, to keep GOD"S NAME Holy. “Hallowed be THY NAME.” Keep your GOD’:S NAME Holy. When you deviate from keeping GOD'S NAME Holy, the Prayer that has been prayed for you, will become to be a failure «as far as you are concerned. « KEEP Gr0D’S NAME HOLY , GOD"S NAME’ should be Holy among you, or -else the Prayer you’ have prayed, which was in the be- ginning of the Prayer and which was to keep GOD’IS NAME Holy, will be in vain. “Hallowed be Thy NAME.” Isn’t that wonderful! If you slightly ignore, or speak of GOD’lS NAME with an unholy as- sertion or expression, it is an out "ward expression of your non-Iworthi» ness of the KINGDOM of HEAV- EN through vwhich the Prayer was, that has brought the ‘KINGDOM. It is indeed wonderful! The Prayer you prayed, just as I said. You prayned it, to let the KINGDOM come and the Will be done, -but how ., dare you call on, and recognize‘ the KINGDOM unless you can in reality KEEP GOD’=S‘ NAME Holy among you! I _p1ifiIed ' ﬁle.‘ The *-sroann worm» If you do not, you will refute your own self and im-peach yourself from the standard of Grace Where you have been lifted. It is indeed wonderful. The very Prayer in it- self as you had not considered—be- fore the KINGDOM could come, it was essential for you to keep GOD'S NAMJE, Holy I AM touching on that point just now for the pur- pose of your consideration, that GOD"S NAJME should be Holy among you in all of your conversations. In «all of your words, deeds and ac-. tions GOD"S NAME should ‘be Holy. If not, ‘the KINGDOM cannot come to you effectively. It may come nex- pressly, but not effectively, unless you can keep GOD'S NA-ME Fl-Ioly. “Hallorwed be Thy That is the essential. If you look upon GOD as mortality and as imperfect, you cannot exspect to produce PER- EEI-CTI'ON by visualizing imperfec- tion, but by observing and visualiz- ing PERFECTION, the POSITIVE, and refusing to observe the nega- tive, the perfectionpf RIGHTEOUS- N ESS, TRUT-I~I,<and JUlSr'I‘IC’-E in you will be ' establishsed. wi_LL BE A New OREATURE _ 'I"«here are rmany things I could say, as I aforesaid, but I believe I have said enough to cause you to -think. If you live. up to what I have\ said this Evening, I AM sure you will -be a NEW Creature, you will think differently and you will act the same; you will recognize GOD’S PRESENCE in reality, and you will hold IT uppermos:tly in your consciousnzess, as Holy and as Pure, for the PERFECTION of oth- em. The very.‘NAME— I say, should be {held uppermostly in your cron- sciousness, as Holy,},in your con- sideration, not only in your con- sideration, but in your words, deeds and actions that it might be the PERFECTION the PERFEC- TO-R of others, for and to others. Now isn’t that wonderful! Upon this Foundation, if you will stand, you will overcome every -un- desirable condition, for I have exem the VICTORIOUIS CON- QUEROR as you‘ say I AM, and I have manifested it to this peo- Oopygafter‘ the .7Fashion II have } Saturday, October 31st‘, 1936 shown you, and you will continually be VICTORIOUS from every angle expressible, there will be naught on earth in opposition sufficient to hunt nor harm you. I tlharuk you. GOD’S Blessing for the True, . and Faithful ‘ " ‘C It has been truly said, “Eye hath I not -seen, ear hath not heard, neither hath it entered into the hear.t of man what GOD hath in store for them that LOVE HIM.” We can’t merely say we LOVE GOD, we must prove it in our deeds and actions daily. Speaking of the blessings that GOD has in store for us, FATHER is giv- ing us a slight sketch through the many extensions in the “PROMISED LAND", and as (wonderful as they may seem, yet FATHER. says HE has not done anything yet to What HE A Will and Can do. I We can see, dear ones, it beh-coves ‘us to LOVE and praise GOD the vmore, as we know that it is only by sincerity and continual 'LOVE and praises to HIM, who is the Giver of all good things, that we can call forth those things HE had in sto-re for us from the beginning ~.of the world. , . When we think «of the great LOVE of GOD for all humanity—how HE had to come to give us our rightful inheritance, then we c-an see how much we owe HIM. ' We used to sing in the churches, “He gave HIS Life for me, what have Igiven for HIM?” So all we have to do, is to -do HIS Will and we know _HE Will blesslus beyond our high- est imaginations.

How- ever, I have not yet had time to study your proposal in .detail’f'I have a graduate class this year which is going to devo/ce a great "deal of time to proposed plans, and I shall hope to have yours analyzed and discussed fully. Very sincerely yours, H. P. Fairchild An Interesting and , , . October 15th, 1936 '3 Henry Pratt Fairchild ' Professor of Sociology New York University Washington Square New York City In re: Righteous Government Act De.-ar Professor Fairchildz Thanks for your critical ﬁrst read- ing of the bill. We seem in agree- ment that any other than theprice, proﬁt, wage, interest and tax sys- 5 tern would be equally incompetent ‘* and a blunder of great magnitude un- less both the mechanism and the new ,. . medium of distribution are proof E .‘ .. against all the defects of the old. The ’ new system must be fool proof in every respect. It must operate to satisfy any and every personal -de- sire, of any and every citizen, by , 4,-‘*3-j making it possible to multiply and . 1 S * replenish the supply of any and every 7' article or convenience in a ratio pre- scribed and dictated, not by dictatori- al powers conferred upon, or otherwise acquired by any person «or any group of persons, but by the tabulation of the total consumer demand, as mea- sured by’ the total of their purcliases, plus the total of their unﬁlled or- gders. There must be no restriction upon either production, distribution ‘r ‘demand, save that imposed by the mits of natural resounces. To tamper with the mechanism of tribution, to throw it out of gear, cause it to work to the special ad- age of some and to the disad- 's;n.tage -of others, for any person ‘ roup of persons, to either legally illegally‘ interfere with the stream Instructive Reply line delivery of production to- con- sumption, all these unfortunate pos- sibilities of the present system must be rendered mathematically impos- sible in the future economic order. In section 7 page 4 lines 3 to 6 of the bill it is provided that all pur- chasing power issued in any one year (or in any p-reduction period) are automatically null and void unless they are actually exchanged for_ con- sumer goods during the correspond- ing production period of their issue. 1937 certiﬁcates ' could be green in color and 1938 certiﬁcates could be yellow, 1939 purple or blue. Section 7 page 3 lines 33i'.to 38 provide that purchasing certiﬁcates shall be issued by serial number, in such -a way that it shall be mechanically impossible for any person to spend, manipulate or otherwise make use of any other per- sons purchasing power or goods availability. Section 5 page 3 lines .18 to 22 provides that if any person refuses or neglects‘ to perform his share cfof the functional -or productive work necessary to the operation of the economic nation at full and un- restricted capacity, then that person shall be deprived of his or her pur- ' chasing power. This applies to all per- sons, and it does not except any per- ’ son nor any official. Ift-his provision shouldbe made more lucid line 19 might be amended to read “his quota shall not be paid to any person, nor to any elected or appointed govern- ment oflicial, nor to any other citizen who shall refuse etc.” Section 3 page 2 lines 22 to 36 provides that the purchasing,___ power issued shall never . Page 29 "be more or less than the amount of goods produced or producible, and that the entire amount of purchasing ‘power issued shall be distributed di- rectly to each and every person in such a way as to enable them to procure and make use of the total production. His election for a ten year (or some other period,‘to be agreed upon) would in no wise pro- vide a sinecure for the Chief En- gineer Economist, nor could his pow- ers extend beyond the limits dictated daily by the current of purchasing demands ﬂowing into his ofﬁce from the consuming public. I would be very happy to have a copy of the analysis and the ﬁndings which may be made by your graduat- ing class, and you may, or course, depend upon me for any service I may be able to render to you. ‘As many copies of the bill as you may wish will be sent on request. Very Sincerely yours, Roy -G. Owens. Spring Housecleaning Alf M. Landon, the strong, silent man from the prairies, has prom- ised, ‘in the broad generalities and feeble nbanalities he has chosen to employ during the entire campaign, that when he becomes President he will have a spring housecleaning. Just what he means by the expres- sion “spring housec1eaning” is not clear, as he seemingly does not in- tend to explain himself further at the present time, but from past ob- servation and general principles we may be pardoned if we take the stand that what he's driving at is that he’ll fire the Democrats and“ hire Republicans in their places. In his first job at Topeka good- natured‘ Mr. Landon did =this very thing, but the thing he did not do was to provide enough funds to en- force the civil service statute which has been on the state books for years and which was designed pri- marily to protect job-holders against this form of political spoilmanship. Let's not be too harsh with Mr. Landon because he failed to live up to the law, however; the civil ser- vice statute has been on the books for a long time in Kansas and no governor yet has ,taken the time or ’ trouble to have. it enforced.

Well, how is it""ﬁone, how is it? Praise His Holy Name, Praise His Holy Name; It’_'s done by His Love and by His Holy Spirit, Praise His ' Holy Name. Now it is Joy and it is Peace and it is Health and it is Love, Praise His Holy Name, Praise His Holy Name; Now it is Joy and it is Peace and it is Health and it is Love, Praise His Holy Name. His Kingdom has come just as it was above, Oh praise His Holy Name, Praise His Holy Name; _ There are no more doubts and there are no more fears, Praise His Holy Name. Since you all now know your GOD—- Praise His Holy Name, Praise His Holy Name; . It is- Joy and it is Peace and it is Health and it is Love, Praise His‘ Holy Name. I have been here all of the time, Praise His Holy Name, Praise His Holy Name; You all can see it if you know Who I AM, Praise His Holy Name. (From one of the angels seated at the table camez) Just keep me on this straight and narrow way, Praise His‘ Holy Name, Praise His Holy Name, etc. FATHER continues :, Why, that is .what I-will do if you will do what I say, Praise His Holy Name, Praise His Holy Name; Why, that is what I will do if you will do What I say, Praise His Holy Name. That is, if you are willing and always obey, The “SPOKEN WORD” Praise His Holy Name, Praise His Holy Name; You will walk in the Light and do what I say, Praise His Holy Name, PEACE EVERYONE: If I might speak as I have thought and think as I have spoken I would draw to your thoughts a considera- tion of what I was just saying in the composition: If you walk in the Light and do just what I say, not so much as to what I say Personally but what I might say Im-personally, it would be the very soul of the Personal Tabernacle, My Innermost Self tell- ing you. ' EXPRESSING GOD INTUITIVELY I have heard many say, as I have said; “FATHER says it is not nec- essary to Contact Him “Personally.” It is a True Saying, that is if I am in you and Ruling -Supreme. If I am Ruling Supremely in your conscious- ness, "in your emotions and expres- sions, your Highest Intuition will be‘ My Men}ality in you, instructing you Intuitively. That is the Mystery! Then it is not necessary for Me to be seen" Personally, neither to be heard ‘directly, but indirectly as I‘ stress it. My Messages to you, yea even through you to others are transmitted and they too will get it as perfectly as if I would express it Personally. That is the Mystery! Hence, it is not necessary to contact Me Personally, that is if you are uni- ’ ﬁed with "Me in such a. Unison of Spirit, of Mind, of,.Aim and of Pur- pose, of Words, of Deeds and of Ac- tions, though you may be an ab- straction. you will be expressing Me Intuitively and I will be speaking in you by your Highest Intuition. That is the Mystery! HIS SPIRIT—BY '1‘RANSiM1'SSION . Hence, to eliminate the Personal concept of Me as an Individual, it is essential, but remember in your men- tality My Spirit must be «developed and brought to fruition and expressed so perfectly that it will be Me in you instructing you Intuitively and not even the slightest reflection of an- other. _ When this is accomplished no long- er do you need Me as a Person es- pecially to tell you this, that, nor the Tuesday,. November 3rd, 1936 other, for the very Spirit of My Pres- ence will be telling you Intuitively and your Intuiti-on will be My Spirit by transmission to you as an Inspi- -ration. That is the Mystery! GOVERNED BY YOUR HIGHEST INTUITION Then I say, all Nations, Languages, Tongues and People shall eventually be Uniﬁed together by such a Rec- ognition and by they bringing their _ bodies into subjection to My Spirit and My Mentality in them as it speaks and teaches them Intuitively, that they might understand Me. That is the Mystery! Therefore, if you unify yourself and be the identical expression, you need not have an- other tell you for the Spirit of My Presence in you by inspiration, as - My Mentality’ is incarnated in you, will speak you Intuitively by in- spirati-onand you will be governed by your Highest Intuition_ That is the Mystery! ‘ , When this shall have been accom- plished it will be~the same as it is with the Principle of Mathematics when it is brought to fruition in the consciousness of an individual, and that individual can use the‘Principle ‘expertly and scentiﬁcally, perfectly and intelligently,——that person is a ._Mathematician and if he works ‘out a. sum for you, if you have the same principle, the same principle will work the same sum out accurately for you as well as it would for him or any other, That is the Mystery of the Intuition! THE PERFECT PICTURE Your Intuition must be the Perfect Picture, the same as the Principle of Mathematics must be in the world of accounts, and must be in the individ- ual perfectly enough to bring out the answer to every problem harmonious- ly and accurat’e1y,—if it does not bring it out accurately, that person is not perfect in usingithe Principle of Mathematics; but, if that person can use the Princ-ipleof Mathematics scientiﬁcally and expertly, intelligent- ly and accurately, that person need not fret nor worry because he knows he has the Perfect Picture, he knows he has the Ideal, the Sample and the Example, and every other must meas- me [up with the same measure or be a failure. That is the Mystery! So, you need not consider being Tuesday, November 8rd, 1936 governed by your Highest Intuition unless you. have the Perfect Picture, the -Sample and the Example and The EXACTER, The PERFECTOR and The EXPRESSER of Perfection,——but "V if you have it in you and shall have brought it to fruition, then and there you as an individual can justiﬁablyﬂ be governed by your Highest Intui- tion, but, if you have not brought this Principle to fruition and if you have not developed it to express it perfectly, if you are governed by your II-Iighest Intuition it may be your right to do so; nevertheless, it will be detrimental ‘for you to be gov- erned by your Highest Intuition un- .less your Intuition is the Perfect Ex- pression, the same as the Principle of Mathematics. ‘ TIUDGIN G WITH '\ EQUITY If you are not governed by the Principle of Mathematics and try to ﬁgure out something, a sum which- ever, it is a matter of impossibility for you to ‘express perfectly if you are in violation to the Principle of Mathematics; therefore, it will be detrimental to you and to those with whom you have to do. Isn’t that ’Wond'erful! The Perfect Picture is the Sample, it is the Example, it must be exempliﬁed and it must be recognized, for you and any other in- dividual to do that which is Just and Good and Right; for you and for others, in" short, to judge with Equity. It must be done by the Principle of Mathematics according to the. Science of it or else you will do something that is detrimental to you. That is the Mystery!" I Noyv I ﬁnd, those who may be as a child, one who has never gone to the kindergarten, might say; “I have a right,” if he could get the thought of it transmitted from others, “to do whatsoever my mind, or my spir- it, or my understanding, or my In- tuition, tells me. I have a right to do it.” I might say; "‘I have a right to go.” But what does it say if it ‘ tells it to spell the old word given about ﬁfty or sixty years ago, ‘com- pressibility’ ? If it tellsthat child to spell ‘compressibility,’ one who has never yet gone to the kindergarten, has not learned its alphabet but has heard some words of it, some letters of it whichever, suppose \he would say; “Well, I have a right to go by and tell you they are The “SPOKEN WORD" » the way my Intuition tells me to spell it.” INFANCY on TRUE , CHRISTIANITY It is equivalently the same with _'those who are in the infancy of True Christianity and the infancy of this Light and Understanding of this Spir- itual Advanced Civilization. When they would attempt to get you to go by. their Intuition, when they them- selves are shaped up in iniquity and born in erroneousness, that person or persons would lead you erroneously jusﬁﬁed in leading _you as perfectly as another that has advanced to Perfection to be the Professor of the Seminaries of our learning, of our schools which- ever. That person would be ‘leading you erroneously and leading himself erroneously to think within himself; “I have a right to be governed by my Highest Intuition,” when your In- tutor is merely ignorance as far as those things are concerned that you have not yet learned. Those things you have not yet learned could not be taught by you, neither could you be inspired by the Intuition to teach you, unless your Intuition was the Spirit of the Tutor transmitted by Inspiration as your Intuition teaching you Intuitively. That is the Mystery! - STILLING YOURSELVES CoMPLEri"ELY_ Upon this Foundation if you will stand, through the relaxation of your conscious mentality by stilling your- selves intellectually, stilling your- selves politically, by stilling your- selves socially, by stilling yourselves from every mortal angle of expres- sion and allowing the CHRIST to Speak in you Intuitively,—by concen- tration on "the Fundamental, .the Per- fect Picture wherein dwelleth Right-.9. eousness, wherein dwelleth accurate- ness, wherein dwelleth the Exactness of Perfection as manifested in the individual -on whom you shall have. concentrated,—that is the Mystery! . GOD in the midst of you is Mighty to save by the insigniﬁcance of Himself as a Person and by the relaxation of His Actions in the way of expression from a human point of view for consideration, that the Spir- it of GOD in His Own Majesty might express Himself Inspirati-onally in the individual and transmit such inspi-. science ‘ cannot Page 5 I rations to those who would concen- trate on Him and give them an in- spiration Intuitively, that they might be governed by their Highest Intui- tion by receiving the transmitted thoughts of His as they concentrate on Him.

Now isn’t that Wonderful! WISDOM, KNOWLEDGE and UNDERSTANDING, all of these Blessings will come forth Intuitively, expressing in you by Inspiration, when you shall have conceived the Idea from GOD’S Opinion. When this shall have been accomplished within you, you might as well and can justiﬁably be governed by your Highest Intuition. Why? For your Intuition, when this shall have. been accomplished, will be the CHRIST within you ’l‘eachin'g and Instructing you Intuitively by Inspiration through the transmission of His Spirit,—it is and will be commonly known as your Intuition That is the Mystery! So it is a privilege to realize you have an access in this Grace Wherein I stand, but it can be only accom- plished and you can only come into ~ possession of it through the relaxa- tion of your conscious mentality, by disinheriting y-ourselves as individ- uals from the mortal version of ex- pression that you might, become to be Heirs and Joint-Heirs with Him Who Liveth forever_ ONLY BY THE WILL OF GOD Truly might have one said; “You serve two masters.” The Blessing of which you all are en- joying cometh not, neither did they come, in other wordsthey have not if . - me 6 nor will ‘they ‘come by the will of. man nor by the will of the ﬂesh, but ;by,the Will of GOD.

Losing your heritage after , the manner of the ﬂesh that you might gain your Rightful Inheritance in the -CHRIST, to become to be Heirs and Joint-Heirs with CHRIST, yea, even further than that degreeof Ex- pression. The second degree of Un- . . foldment would not give you merely an inheritance as a half-brother .in the family of Royalty, but it would give you an equal Inheritance,—not only as a. Joint-Heir with the CHRIST but, as said the Gospel; “The Word was made ﬂesh and dwelt among us and we beheld His Glory as the Glory of the only Begotten of the FATHER, full of Grace and of Truth and of . all of His Fullness have all we re- ceived "Grace for Grace.” “Of all of His Fullness,” not just a part of it, not just an equal share of it as proportio-ne-d off and as Joint- Heirs, but, “of all of His Fullness have all we received Grace for Graoe.” ‘ ‘ ABUNDANCE OF THE FULLNESS The Principle of Mathematics as ‘(an expression parably speaking, tell- ing you of the Mystery of the Abun- dance of the Fullness, can each in- dividual gain and, fulﬁll the Abun- dance of the Fullness.

HOWLAND A night or two ago I happened to ‘be standing in the editor’s room as he ‘ rolled into bed. He had, I knew, had a long, strenuous day——possibly one of those day-and-a-half or two-day ' stretches of his. As he relaxed on the pillow he looked up and said— "Isn’t that funny?—Just as I was going to sleep a word, came into my mind that doesn’t mean anything— The wor-d—‘Sa—ba_' ” “Don’t you know what -that Word means?" I asked him. ‘,‘No. What does it mean.” “That’s the Hebrew. word for REST,” I told him. - “That's funny,” he smiled, and went to sleep. Speaking with tongues, or the Gift of Tongues is one of the most an- cient and well-established facts of the religious life. It is‘ clearly re- corded in the New Testament and ac- cepted as one of the “gifts” or man- ifestations of The Spirit, But even before that, and in other religions than Hebraic and Christian it is a recognized factor in -the spiritual ‘life. Even in the Old Testament the dis- tinction is made between authentic manifestations and the gibberish of false revelations. The prophet warns against “wizards that peep and mut- ter.” . But in the history of Christianity the Gift of Tongues has had a rec- ognized place, and it has a recog- said——and . nized place today in current church life—particular-ly in the Pentecostal 8'1‘011PS. . . Interesting comments are heard to- day on the apparent fact that far greater power has followed those who acknowledge, recognize and occa- sionally manifest the Gift of Tongues than those who do not. In the so- called “H«ol1ness" groups the observa- tion is made that those who have repudiated or denied or failed to wel- come the Gift of Tongues seem to have lost much of spiritual power and zeal while the groups recognizing the Gift of Tongues are having remark- able manifestations of divine power. Paul recognized the fact of the Gift Tongues-, but warned against placing’ too much emphasis ‘upon it,’ suggesting that to be of deﬁnite ben- eﬁt to the church the speaking with ’tongues should be adcompanied by “interpretation.” _ I have been thrilled more. than once, while listening to some Angel of FATHER DIVINE speaking in an unknown tongue to catch a perfectly . familiar phrase or word while I was sure the speaker himself did not at all understand. For instance, if you will listen closely while some happy Angel, en- tirely out of self and apparently al- most out of the body, is uttering these phrases and syllables in un- known tongues you will frequently catch this combination of sounds- “SHO-LEM” or “SHA-LEM.” N-ow remember these are people who have perhaps made no study of other languages and are not in the slightest degree familiar with the He- brew tongue. Yet that is the Old Testament word for “PEACE!” How natural and reasonable for the Divine Spirit to come through the lips of these worshippers of FA- THER DIVINE with that sweet, an- cient word that shines forth from the pages of the Old Testament and is now constantly upon the lipsof FA- THER DIVINE and HIS follow.ers— “SHO-LEM,” “SHA-"LEM," “PEACE! PEACE! PEACE!” Once or twice there has been a twist to it that added an extra drop or two of honey to the sweetness.— “SHALEM-U,” “SHALEM-U.” Now do you know what that means? It means “OUR PEACE." That's rather nice, isn't it‘? One Sunday morning, sitting at a DIVINE banquet at the 63rd Street Kingdom I was astonished to hear one of the Angels, as she was ut- tering rapt sounds of this heavenly language say—‘ ‘MA‘KAiR.IOlS | ” NOW if it had been a Greek fruit-man or ‘ restaurant man who said it it would not have been so miraculous. But it was just a humble FATHER DIVINE worshipper who did not know a let- ter of the Greek alphabet or a syl- lable of a Greek word. But that word ”MA‘K.ARIOiS” is the Greek Word for “blessed,” or “happy.” It is the «x Tuesday, November 3rd, 1936 word with which every one of the “Beautitudes" begins, the words spo- ken by Jesus Himself in the Sermon on the Mount—probably first in His native Aramaic, then set down in Greek by Matthew. and‘ Luke- “Blessed, Blessed, Blessed, Blessed—” And now jumping over the centu- ries the word comes leaping through the lips of’a FATHER DIVINE An- gel getting blessed at a 63rd Street Sunday morning banquet. You often hear an _Angel, under the stress of great emotion, caught in the waves of unusually high vibra- tion, shout——“Sha—4Sha—Sha-—” That puzzled me for a long time. That syllable has a trivial. meaning in English, and I did not recognize it as a part of any language I had ever known anything about. Then it dawned on me, that while I don't know a single word of Persian, everybody knows that “SID-IAH” is the title the Persians give“ to their king. Suddenly the strange little syllable had a new and an important meaning. I believe when the syl- lable comes through the lips of a FATHER DIVINE worshipper it means that that soul is ‘crying out its adoration to FATHER DIVINE as “Ruler,” “Master,’_’ “Lord" and "KING!” ‘ I wish I knew more of other lan- guages and could remember more of the languages I studied long ago. But these few syllables _I have remem- bered and have picked out of the streams of unfamiliar words flowing from Spirit-“touched lips have been a‘ real blessing to me and have helped me‘to cling to an old established principle of the religious life, and have _added another point to the long list of facts, that strengthen and make ﬁrm my faith in FATHER DI- VINE and in the reality of HIS POW- ER" AND GLORY. One wonderful moment stands out‘ among the many wonderful moments of these four years. Many reports have been given of a remarkable Sunday afternoon meet- ing at Rockland Palace -during that great summer of 1932. I’was blessed to be sitting, on theplatform, where the waves of rapture and glory were rolling with overwhelming power, FA'I‘\I-IEIR HIMSELF had been speak- ing; 1-1Evpaused in HIS address, and began walking toward the rear of the‘ platform. HE was Speekiv-3 in CZ’ .» _~ ‘-1 ' shouldn’t know this. Tuesday, November 3rd, 1936 an undertone, words no one could catch. Then we heard HIM say - “SI-IA‘-BA,” or “SHA-BAT,” as HE leaped high into" the air—— ' Small wonder that accounts differ as to what happened then— Some say there were blinding lights; some say there were unearthly sounds. I suppose no one of those present can be quite sure what happened, We on- ly know we were in the presence of a Power that is not of this world. Yet it was that same. gentle, easy word—REST.” “Ye shall ﬁnd REST The "SPOKEN WORD” ‘unto your souls,” HE said through the lips 01’ Jesus long ago. And go where you will today among - the real and true followers of FA- THER DIVINE and you will hear, in ‘one tongue or another, the same word Rat, and its equivalent- PEACE! I Thank You, FATHER. ('In Hebrew the letter “S” has the sound’ of both “S” and “Sh.” Vowel sounds are more or less interchange- able, particularly the sounds “o” and “a.”) A GLIMPSE OF OUR PRESIDENT ‘ .By JOHN HENRY The crowd lined both sides of 7th Avenue as far as one could see, some- times two ‘and three deep, waiting with noticeable quietness for we knew not what. An air of tenseness an-d supressed excitement gripped the gathering, a tenseness noticeable even in the actions of the little children V who had crowded off the curb and out into the street, for they talked in sub- I dued whispers even when the police- man herded them_ back to’ the side- walk. “What’s the crowd waiting for?” we inquired of‘ a lady. a .she turned to stare at us question- ingly for a moment before, she an- swered. “Why, Mr. Roosevelt’s coming along here,” she snapped, a bit dis- dainfully, as though it were beyond her understanding that anyone She stooped to jerk a small boy oft-hree» or four years away from the curb, “And he's a good man, too,” as- serted she provocatively an underly- ing thread of deﬁance in her bear- ing giving us the impression that she would welcome our voicing any dif- ferences of opinion regarding the man that we might entertain. The momentary surge of excite- ment caused by the sudden appear- ance of a line of motorcycle police died away as it proved to be an- other false alarm; the children were out in the street again after a mo- mentary lapse «of vigilance left them free, the patient officer delegated to that section sighed and walked back to put them in order again. The young ones were having quite a time, although they were very quiet. One lad of nine or so who claimed he had seen t«he‘presid"e’1it once before was the center of an ad- miring, albeit dubious circle of ac- quaintances who chattere-d constant- ly of “Mr_ Roosevelt,” achieving in their bearing and accent that subtle air of nonchalance, intimacy and fel- lowship possible for only their age to ‘have. , By this time probably 1,500 people were lined along the sidewalks be- tween 110th and 115th streets. Some- one said he had been waiting more than an hour, and t-hat the crowds had been there when he came. A late comer said a friend had telephoned him to hurry down if he wanted to see “Mr. Roosevelt" in person. Ques- ’tions speculating on the appearance of the President were heard—“Does he wear glasses, do you know?” “Does he look very old‘?”, etc. No one seemed to know where he was going or whence he came, only that he was going‘ to pass. Later several people voiced the opinion that he was going to the Fordham n—Pittsburgh football game. ‘A momentary flair of invective between an ofﬁcer and the woman driver of a large sedan who “just had to go up 7th, don’t you see, officer?” then a squadron of motor- cycle police and a sudden burst of riotous applause from the neighbor- hood of 110th Street told of the President's coming. Two huge limousines bearing Amer- ican flags swept past, two police cars ,another limousine with the in- signia U. S.

The reason for the long line of empty cars, 13 of them, to be exact, could not be fathomed out. The crowds thinned away magic- A ally until a quick barrage of boos and jeers brought attention back to the street, ’ . Struggling valiantly along in the mass of traffic in the vanguard of the President’s procession was a huge limousine bearing a/ Landon sun- ‘tflower, and the vocal ordeal the hap- less chauffeur of this car was forced _ to en-dure before he managed to get through t-he crowd was something he will probably never forget. Even the sunflower on the windshield looked a bit bedraggled and wilted. Sym- bolic, perhaps? -:_. British Prime Minister to Speak from London Stanley Baldwin, Prime Minister of England, is expected to make an important statement on British arms policy in his address to the Lord Mayor's Inaugural Day Banquet in London Monday, No-vember 9. The address will be relayed to the WABC-Columbia network from 4:20 to 4:55 P. M., EST. Prime Minister Baldwin will speak in London’s ancient Guild Hall under the shadow of Parliament. There every year the new Lord Mayor holds the banquet which climaxes a day of traditional ceremonies and serves as the occasion for pro,no- uncements by high British officials on current national problems. Arma- ments constitute the theme of this year's discussions and will probably stand out as the principal subject to be discussed by the Prime Min- ister in his first address since his recuperative vacation several months ago.

High schools, he ' says, cannot make up their minds whether they are “ipreparing students for life or for college.” The aims of junior colleges are “notclear,” and liberal- arts colleges frequently look like “teacher-training institutions,” and often “like nothing at all.” What is responsible? “The love of "money,” says I-Iutchins, because “the people love money and think that education is a way of getting it.” “My contention is that the tricks of the trade cannot be. learned in a university, and if they can be they should not be.” These observations appear, in a small book, “Higher Lea-rning in America,” just published by Yale University Press. Definingeducation as “the culti- vation of the intellect,” Mr: Hut- chines envisions the growth of junior colleges that would offer a. four year course, beginning with the third yea-r in high s-chool and in- cluding the first two years of pres- ent college Work. The curriculum would be “the greatest books of the Western World and the arts of read- ing, writing, thinking, and sp-eaking, together with mathematics,’ the best exemplar of the processes of human reason.” ‘ ' From junior colleges students would enter universities, Where, with- out any. vocational aim, they would “pursue truth for its own sake in the light of some principle of order for three years.” Research and pro- fessional instruction would be con- ducted in institutes connected with the university, but these schools would have no voice in the policies of the university nor would they be an integral part of ‘them as they are today.” “The departmental system,” Hutch- ins says, “which has done so much to obstruct the advancement of edu- cation, and the advancement of knowledge, will vanish. The three faculties (metaphysics, social scien- ces, and natural science) would ‘con’- stitute the entire organization of t-he unirversity. Members of existing de- partments who are exclusively con- cerned with data collecting oir voca- tional training will be transferred to ‘ research or techunical institutes.” Onlyin these ways does the Chi- cago ‘e-ducator see the university achieving its purpose as the “home of creative thought.” Current Events Endorsed As Reading Matter The magazine Current Events has been endorsed by the Righteous Gov- ernment Department as suitable read- ing matter for the followers of FA- THER DIVINE. A familiar sight for years ,in schoolrooms and an indispensable aid to students, Current Events contains a wealth of information affecting pol- itics and government as well as in- ternational affairs, Those desiring to keep posted on the vital and‘ con- structive news of the world will ﬁnd much -of interest in this little maga- zine which because of its non-p-rej- udicial nature has met with the sanc- tion of the Righteous» Government board. It is the duty of followers of FA- THER DIVINE to keep themselves informed on vital issues and for this reason mention of this medium, is made in these columns. It is understoodthat as construc- tive publications and sources of read- ing matter come to hand the Right- eous ,'Government_ Department will take note of same that ,Tr'uth follow- ers 'every_where may secure worth- while reading matter while avoiding prejudicial and untruthful material.

But I can read the doubt in ‘her eyes. She thinks I am just a fanatic, car- ried away by emotion. And she ex- presses it: * »“But I am such a practical “per- son . . . And I have heard “Lies! Lies! Lies!” Now I am blaming myself. Again I v_ha’ve\. thrown my pearls before , . swine! They will read the lies, but they will not read His words of Spirit and of Life! Why will they say these things?

Of course they will slander,— 0‘ and they will persecute, and they will do everything in their power to try to stop,~I-IIIM. They will stop at nothing. For HE is their undoing.

I do appreciate having a body and I Thank YOU, Father for having spared my life then. However, since YOU have brought me to the realization of Righteous- ness, I found that after the ﬁrst year following the accident, I could have gone to work, but I thought I was justiﬁed in receiving the Sick Beneﬁt 9/ 3661 since the Policy stated as long as disabled, a person ‘shall receive in- demnity. ‘ I Thank YOU, Father to forgive me for lying about it,’as I would have to go to Doctors every three months and would have to pretend I was not strong enough to work, I would have continued to accept same indeﬁnitely had not YOUR Tender Mercy saved me in 1934. I requested these ‘Insurance Com- panies to send receipt of this money to YOU. I do Thank YOU, Father to forgive me all my many sins and mistakes I do desire to do that which is right, because I Love YOU with all this heart, soul and strength and I and be happy, healthy in body, mind and Spirit and to be in harmony with YOU always, my Sweet, Precious, Saviour God.

(CNA).—- Dedicating a new chemistry building at Howard .University,« President Roosevelt enunciated a theory that “there should be no forgotten men and no forgotten races.” He praised the “prompt and eager response” to educational opportunities so far opened and commended the univer- sity for‘ its high scholastic standing. The. Federal Government had pro- vided‘ three new buildings for the famous university, and, the President remarked, “there are more to come,” “So far as it was humanely pos- sible,” the President said, “the gov- ernlment has followed the policy that among American citizens there should be no forgotten men and no forgotten races. It is a wise and truly Ameri- can policy. We shall continue faith- fully to observe it.” _ Thelbuilding is a part «of a twenty- year plan for development of the uni- versity, which is administered by the, Department of the Interior, The present building program, which in- cludes two other structures, will cost about $3,000,000. ‘ the . ' times - Tuesday, November 3rd, 1936 Abuse of “Frankinxg” System A popular song tells us that “everything’s been done before,” and it seems to be t-he truth, bu-ﬁt this year, While not unveiling a new poli- tical ill, certainly proved to be a year for large-scale repetitions of the old ones. We refer in particular to the wholesale abuse of the ,“fran;k- ing” system by both political par- ties. . s The franking system is the set of regulations allowing certain men of high office, for instance Congress- men and ‘Senators; the privilege of sending mail free -under the some- , abstract guise \_ of “official business.” . _, It has been charged, and it is probably true, that Vmore than 6,- 000,000 pieces ,of, Republican cam- paign lfteralture have been mailed under the franlk of one congressio- nal memiber friengly to the cause, and practically the same number will be sent out under the frank of a Democrat; There _has alwaysibeen a great deal of misunderstanding and wran .gling regarding the Post office de- partment, even in ordinary, non- election years. The question of whether or not the Post office should be run with the idea of making a profit or merely making, expenses ,2h'3.S ‘long been one of pa«ra3nountin— terest, for instance, and now the misuse of the franiking privilege by congressional members offers newer and more fertile grounds for dis- agreement and mud slinging. This year the volume of propa- ganda and campaign ,m.aterial sent out free through ~t~he_mails has far exceeded all previous records, and it will naturally be the taxpayer who will eventually‘ pay the extra expense incurred in. handling ' this tremendous amount of free .po-st ma- terial. Certainlyethfe franking clause could never in the wildest‘ stretch of t-he human imagination _be legitim- ately construed as to mean that 12 million pieces‘ ofcampaign literature could be distributed, free under the guise of “ogfficialr business.” The beginning of the’ words of his ‘mouth —iS. foolishness: and the “end of his talk is misc_h°ievo__us;mad--;— ness.. --7,» it T,uesday,,Novembe'r 3rd, 1936 Page 15 Travel-Lore Who has not dreamed dreams, built castles in the air, and walked undaunted into that mystic Land of ‘Make-Believe? Who -has not, in a , ‘golden hour of unreality, peopled this workaday world, with sleek fat man- darins and stately muezzins, with buxom peasant maid and kilted Scot, with laughing ﬁsherboy and pudgy ‘ tot in reindeer coat? Is there anyone with soul so dead who has not let his ﬁngers trail over the ivory keys, re-creating, in fancy, ’a Wagnarian aria from Bayreuth or the discordant strains of frenzied iRomany? Who has not visualized La Scale with its glittering tier up- on tier of opera boxes or the dim gal- leried church in the Pyrenees? Who has not responded to the vhunter’s horn, the sh'epherd’s ﬂute, the wild call of the malamute? S ‘Surely when books are closed and papers are tucked away, each has window-dished along the glamorous Rue de la 'Paix, down correct striped- trousered _ Bond Street, or perhaps meandered recklessly through gaudy bazaars, musty and heavy-scented.

The cinema too has set us stroll- ing leisurely through picture-laden galleries of ‘the Prada, the Louvre, the Ufﬁzi, the Tate; or transplanted us into the classic shade of the Ac- ropolis, before =domed' St. Sophia, or into the jeweled purity of Taj Ma- hal. ‘ North, East, West, 'South—each way the ﬁnger beckons, Let us look towards the rising sun: vast stretch- es of desert land, pine‘-clad moun- tains, miles-of fertile prairies, low- lands, cities of men, the towering skyline of‘M‘anhattan; the-n seaness- es, blue and sometimes ﬂoating a shimmering citadel of ice; soon the white cliffs, the wooded plains, the glorious thrust of cathedral spires, the jostling thoroughfare of foreign marts, the snow‘-crowned peaks of Wonderland. - .

Maybe it is the clear cold North that spells romance: amber ﬁelds of waving grain, the splash and roar of cataract, steppes scarred and shad-ow-haunted, beetling cliffs, white cities, a ﬂare of rainbow splendor in the midnight sky. Or let the lazy lotus-land enthrall: gray vineyard slopes, blue lagoons, sparkling sands of crescent beach, idle sweet do-nothing days, joyous . content.

Why wish we for plumb and rule -as we stand in the royal shadow of the Pharaohs?

Big Business Has Overstepped Itself It would seem that big business is suffering from a bad case -of “to much «p-ropaganda.” ' When these lines appear in print millions of listeners all over -the country will in all probability be hearing the election returns of the presidential race. In all probability too they will be hearing the news that Mr. Roosevelt has been elected by a large majority. Regardless ‘of the political opinions pro and con-—in this particular cam- paign, at least, thiswould appear to be the inevitable conclusion. Favor Mr. tRoosevelt- or not, his personal appeal and ability to cap- ture the popular fancy has assured him of the bright chances of victory. Big business burdened with the weakest candidate a major political party has offered in many years and faced with the adverse attitude of a greater part of the general public still mindful of the Hoover-Coolidge years with their accorn anyin" head- aches, has had little chance o'f—’win- ning the approval of the citizens of America, Graxitﬁeud that this was so, big busi- ness further enhanced their chances of defeat by releasing a ﬂood of ill- chosen and maliciously untrue propa- ganda. They over-played the game. As one expert hazarded, one does not object quite so much to propa- ganda, objectionable as it is, if it is subtle—one even might admire such propaganda. But the clumsiness of the Republican propaganda and the ill taste with which much of it was conceived had won many voters to Roosevelt’s cause and virtually as- sured him of four -more years in the White House. The frantic and very thinly dis- guised bias of Mr, Hearst and his chain of newspapers in bitterly op- posing the people and upholding cor- porate interests in a manner obvious to all has been another factor high- ly aiding Mr. Roosevelt. If there is a lesson to be learned in tﬁe current campaign, which polit- ically and socially has been ‘a disap- pointment to most liberal observers, it is that the day of propaganda is dead. It will take propaganda far more subtle than that conceived by the best political publicity minds to de- ceive the people in future as" to the vital , issues confronting them. Foreign Commerce Revival Of all the possible acts of leg- islation which could be passed in regard to international relations, Secretary Hull is most desirous of having an Anglo-American "trade treaty,' as he believes that this is is the most important single factor in the revival of foreign commerce. , If England would do likewise, the chances are that he would agree on a reciprocity treaty‘ with Germany. If this were negotiated it would probably result in the further scal- ing down of the external German debt, and subsequent loans to that country -in raw materials in default on their war -debts, although the Johnson Act of Congress definitely prohibits such loans, and would have to be put aside for the moment in some manner.

' \ GOD Alone Shall’ Reign In _-the strange, ancient, beautiful‘ city of Florence, in Italy, there is on record a unique event which is a .precursor of other corresponding ' events which are sure to occur. At some time in the Middle Ages when Florence—-Firenze» in Ita1ian——was a republic, the citizens, by 'a formal loa/llot, elected JESUS CHRIST Rul- er of the City. HIS NAME stands there on athe old records in the annals of the city— V Jesus Christ, {Ruler of the Re public of Florence. All during the late-Ancient and the Middle Ages ‘there was this im- pulse to make Christ the actual head of the human family. It was this that lay back of the persistent « efforts for the UNITY of the Church, under one visible head "who was to represent «Christ. This, too, was responsible for the eﬁfort to unite Church and State. That was the dream _.of {I-Iilde=brand—on'e hu- man family, Ohurch and 'State-unit- ed un-der the I-Ieadshi-p of Christ. [But the spirit of those centuries could not break away from thoughts V and acts of violence; and society was full of inju.sti.ce~s and wrongs. Against these the act of the citi- zens of Florence stands forth "as a beautiful’ gesture—‘TWe make Christ .King of Our City”, they said. “-and we shall do I-IIS Will.” But, alas, they did not carry through. ‘ That is why FATHER DIVINZE has come. HE’ WllLL |CAR2R:Y TH-ROUGH this long Dream to its fulfilment. L Again and again we -hear I-lll'JS OWIN VOICE Singing—— ~ HE rule-s the ‘world with Truth and Grace And makes the Nations prove The Glories of HIS RIGHTEOUS- NE-SAS And WONDERS OF’ HIS LOVE And we know that that Promise, that Pledge, is soon to be fulfilllled. Behind the Scenes‘ Behind the smoke screen of po- litioa-1 propaganda momentous events are taking place in ;our land. Here are a few, aithough time and space preclude adequate and de- tailed infommation concerning them. ISuch -must_ be deferred for other space in our columns. T u Briefly, here are three develop- ments recently, each of which have a deep bearing on ‘our immediate and future life. President Roosevelt “broader” education of engineering students in our technical schools and colleges. The problem of unemploy- ment must be solved, he says, by engineers. , - The American Society o-f Indus- trial Engineers lately rel-eased sta- V tistics showing that 500,000 men can prod-uce under modern scientific the- thods and the ‘present industrial set- up all that was used by t-he people in the peak year of 1929. A professor at the University of California, Berkeley, California, tells us about “bathtub gardens” and “soil-'less farming” enabling families to raise a years supply of -potatoes, corn and tomatoes in their back- yard! These occurrences and develop- ments do hot require much com- ment. They speak eloquently for themselves. Humanity need not worry about the adoption of a liberal and for- ward-loolkin-g social program or a sweeping change in the existing un- balanced and unworkable economic vehicle. Humanity will be forced to these things by the normal course of the law qf. self-preservation. \ - -.,_, -. ‘.‘i.1f:,‘.’.:$'u’.«P'!|'_3—..;_=-.>‘_2_‘;§f;~._'_' V.-i, g,_5,;;~, -,u__‘ _» -ya. 1 ',,...,;,. _’t-..;.,.

ELECTIONS I Election is in the minds of the . majority of citizens of this land of ours. There are pros and cons as to who will or should be elected. There is an. ever-growing multitude of people, however, who have a. much different and a much more helpful viewpoint about elections, and the days of elections are not a few but , many—-in fact, everyday. The election we refer to is the ,election of CHRIST to reign on the throne of the minds of the children of men, and when this is done by all there will be but one choice of can- didates. This CHRIST was offered to the people by the Giver of every good and perfect gift. It was offered «by FATHER. DIVINE in the Righteous Government Platform. M Those who are of the redeemed, whose eyes can see, -will cast their votes today and everyday for the «CANDIDATE who~ will fulfill every promise and guarantee a Perfect Government.

The great Mystery of the Quicken- ing of the Spirit, was the theme of this most remarkable MESSAGE, and of the necessity of ridding one’s self of all preconceived ideas and opinions, fancies and pleasures, and all of their tendencies. In short, the quickest, the -most effective, the sur- est and the ONLY way to eradicate the nature, the characteristics and every symptom thereof, ' of the old self, is the way that CHRIST, in the Person of JESUS the Son, in the Sonship Degree, and the way that CHRIST Who speaketh in Parables, THER DIVINE, in the FATHER- SHIP DEGREE has shown us. This is the method and the only course. of procedure: “YE MUST BE BORN AGAIN.” ' Consider the Parable of the Radio Broadcasting System. A marvelous signiﬁcant Lesson is taught here by CI’-IIRIST who speaketh in Parables, even as HE inspired His Only B_egot- ten Son Nineteen Hundred Years ago, and of Whom the Scripture says “And with many -such parables spake He the Word unto them, as theygwere able to hear it. But without a parable spake He not un- to them.” ‘ I This shows the similarity, or. rather the identical relationship -of Jesus, the Son, and FATHER DIVINE, the FATHER. Hence, we already know by the revealing of the Spirit that the Twain are One, but to those who are materialistic, and to those who are scientiﬁc, and to those who are even critics; let them compare the Words of Jesus and the Words of FATHER’S and the Parables of Je- sus arid the Parables of FATHER'S, —-and the logic of Jesus’s Sayings land. the logic of FATHER'S Sayings, and they will discern the mystery, and behold the Twain are One, for the Son submitted Himself to the FATHER wholly, and completely submitted His Will to HIM, for did He not say: “Not My Will, but THY WILL be done?” In this submission He has submerged in the FATHER, and now we behold the FULLN-ESS of HIS GLORY, for we have seen the FATHER, and it sufﬁceth us. In reference to the story of the man, (the sailor) which FATHER has given, “though it is humorous, he value of its importance and the ig- hiﬁcance of it should not be over- looked nor minimized for it is truer than ﬁction. There are vital points of informa- tion and instruction in this very beau- tiful MESSAGE, and every word -should‘ be carefully read, for in the ‘very smallest one, there is weight, and there is food for Body, Soul and Mind. We are grateful to FATHER DI- VINE, GOD of our Being and ORE- I ATOR of all things, for the impar- tation of these Wonderful Words of Life, which are, in turn, giving life and substance toour bodies individ- Vually and collectively and Universal- ly. Again we thank THEE, SAVI- OUR DIVINE. at * ‘ as PEACE EVERYONE: (“Peace FATHER DEAR!” joy- ously responded the Assembly.) Now you are happy and so AM I! It is indeed wonderful! When I first came down in the Dining Room, this Morn- ing, I thought of how marvelous it is to live in this modern Spiritual and Natural -Civilization, where you are inspired scientiﬁcally and naturally, inventionally, artistically and other- wise, As -each expression bears wit- ness of the other of the mystery and the signiﬁcance of GOD Your FA- THER, and the Work of His IN- FINITENESS, causing mankind to see and realize GOD is not conﬁned not bound to one expression alone, causing you to realize GOD ﬁlls all space and HE absent from none, . giving you to understand both by Sci- " ence and Invention, by discoveries and other scientiﬁc expressions that GOD is not “an imaginary something,” but GOD is EVER-PRESENT, REAL and PRACTICAL. He makes things real from the Spiritual Realm, that mankind might enjoy ,_them, where it was impossible for man to enjoy the Blessings we are now enjoying, as, long as they were discerned as something mythological and imag- inary, but since the Condescensiuon of ‘GOD and CHRIST to bring those things down to the conscious mind of the children of men ,and to bring them into outer expression and “tan- gibilate” them, mankind can now re- alize, as he sees the mystery of GOD’S Actual PRESENCE, and the reality of His MAJESTY. SCIENCE AN D INVENTION Now this is something I thought‘ for consideration; while we sit, stand and express at times, your hearts and your minds are ﬁlled with joy of the ecstasy of the Recognition of the PRESENCE of GOD, but while they are charged with the Magnetic Current of GOD’S INFINITENESS, just one mental touch will cause the transmission of GOD’S Spirit to pen- etrate each aﬁd every mind, and your bodies will vibrate at the Recognition of the PRESENCE of GOD. That is why we speak, we act and we think— in other words, we think, we speak and -we act. These expressions come forth spontaneously as we relax our conscious mentality and recognize the GOD -of MAJESTY as EVER-PRES- ENT in reality, For this cause, man must see and know, everything that has come forth from the Invisible Realm and "has been brought out by Science and Invention,,—all things that have come to the surface, they are parables, parably speaking of the mystery of GOD and His KING- (DOM. ‘ Just think of the Radio-Broad casting System-——how it is,——you can dial in on a .ce_rtain .,station,;_ and in Phk¢.18.., the midst of thousands and thousands of other radio receiving sets, you “can pick, out that especial Message that is coming over the Ether, and get it, while others may be getting a differ- ent message -by the same current and , wave-length. Oh! it is something to consider what -GOD in HIS MAJESTY, LOVE and MERCY has .done, and what HE is now doing to bring about the re- ality of these things. GOD through ' Science and Invention brought them to the surface in the parable, parably speaking through the Invention. By this, we can see there is a reality in ment'al Contact. There is a reality in the UNITY of Spirit, of Mind, of Aim and of -Purpose, and also a reality in the UNITY of the Uni\'ersalBro11h- erhood of man and the Recognition Of the FATHERHOOD of GOD. THE PARABLE OF THE RADIO The Radio Receiving«Set will get your message, and millions of oth- ers throughout the Universe in the Wave-lengths, so far as it can reach, they will also get it. This is a. par- able inventionally and parably speak- ing of the Mystery of GOD'S Actual PRESENCE and of how HE has ' UNIFIED all mankind together in reality. When you see these, My S Followers, moving spontaneously, vol- untarily and unthoughtfully, you can plainly see by the Science,-—I mean .by Invention and by this particular parable I have spoken, that there is a reality in the Mental and Spirit- ual Contact, transmitting one’s thoughts to another, and if you are in harmony with it, it will be the same as when you dial in on some special Station from the Broadcast"- ing Wave-lengths, from that angle, at that particular time,—y-ou can re- ceive the message that is going through that Broadcasting System. While at other times, there may be other messages going over that same B-roadcasting-Wave-length, but at that particular time, «dial in on that particular wavelength, and you will get whatsoever is going over your Station. RELAXTION OF THE CONSCIOUS MENTALITY _ The Mystery is plain to, see, "GOD the midst of,y,‘o'u is to save, sea to UNIFY all message to‘- g‘eth‘er,“ as has hrought ‘about,’ . , T136, through the Invention of the Radio- ‘broadcasting System, the reality of the Mystery in the -parable, Then I say, as we sit, as we stand, as we think, we also act, we also RELAX at times. By the RELAXATION of the conscious mentality, the re-action -of that which has been preconceived will come forth into expression spon- taneously. The thoughts you have ’pre-conceived, ideas .and opinions, when you are quickened, and they are quickened within you, at times they will come forth spontaneously. You have often heard the saying which is quite often ‘used in Amer- ica and also in other countries: “A drunken man speaks, a sober man’s thoughts.” That which is in you pre-conceived before you are quick- ened by the Spirit of Recognition and by your Contact with ME, automat- ically no doubt, that thought will come forth spontaneously, and cause you to speak volitionally. Isn’t that wonderful? (“Truly won-derfu ‘” agreed the Assembly) Your thoughts at times have been conceived; you may not think when you are going to speak these words, but as they are, so they were, and as they were, So they are. Isn't that Wonderful! RELIGIOUS ECSTASY CALLED CONVERSION I recall a party telling a story once of which they said it was a fact con- cerning the way of the people seek- ing to get converted. The story goes,‘ “There was a young man who went down to the ‘Mourners’ Bench,’——I mean the way they used to go down Forty or Fifty years ago, to get con- verted',—-they said, “to get Religion,” and especially among the Christian people, commonly‘ known as the Christian Religion—-the Protestant, that is, the Methodist and the Bap- tist. It is indeed wonderful! so the story goes, “There was a young sailor who ‘came here from some parts of one of the British Isles, and he had been accustomed to swearing, for practically every ‘breath, so when he got down to get what they called ‘Religion,’ they prayed over and prayed over him, until after awhile when he did get it, he jumped up," the ‘same as we jump here at times; —-well, they“said he got up—-you see I do not use the words, i use the’. ‘ reverse to that cf he said, be"- cause that which was a. hurse, I will . . ,_ ..fl,‘I1.e.ss12i35. .1S','q‘v.er_r.tf1‘b,'er..3.r.c.l..... 1936 make it to be a Blessing, and that which was negative, ITRANSFORM it to be PCSITIVE:——so the trans- ‘posed version of the extreme reverse . to what he actually said, I might say: “I got Him! I got Him! I got Him! God Bless if I haven’t got Him.” ~ (Much point.) PEACE EVERYBODY:—~S0 he said, he had it. .He was caught up in the Vibration of the Sp-irit from that angle of expression, of that Re- fligious ecstasy which they call “Con- version," and of course he was un- controllable. He was actually con-- verted, as it may be termed from that angle of expression, for he was caught up in the Religious ecstasy -of that atmosphere in which he was laughter ensued at this sincerely pregiiiﬁg. That was the mys- . . tery, butyet the pre-conceived ideas, the pre-conceived opinions, the pre- conceived words, he had accustomed himself to saying, they, came out spontaneously and volitionally when _he lost control of himself; and al- tho}-,1gh' he was what the people call swearing, nevertheless, he was as much converted as that Unfoldment of Conversion could be, in the Chris- tian Protestant Church, from that degree. Now isn’t that wonderful! A CERTAIN DEGREE OF UNFOLDMENT All of these different degrees of unfoldments, they are certain de- grees developed to degrees in the Christian Movement, and each indi- vidual may be converted from that angle of expression, according to his respective Calling into some special Religion in the environment in which he is seeking it. Now isn’t that won- derful! So this brother, he really HAD HIM, but still he was what the people call “swearing.” , Nevertheless, the Minister and all ofthem said: “Don’t say that, brother.f’ They said, “You are swearing. Why don't you say, ‘my Soul is alive, I am hap- py?”-—But he was just carrying on: “I got Him! I got Him! I got Him! I got HIM! God Bless if I haven't got Him.” ‘ ‘A Now isn’t that wonderful? He really had Him from that degree of Unfoidment, nevertheless, the pre- conceived ideas, the p:=e:’eonee1ved» ‘ a. miraculous Uphere is “contagionized" with Tuesday. November 3rd,_I936> opinions that were in him, naturally they came forth spontaneously when he,‘ was quickened, for they were quickened within him. Isn't that something to consider? (“It is won- derful” emphatically shouted the Throng.) , Truly might have one said, “Evil communication corrupts good morals: ill qualities’ are catching as well as diseases, and a man is known by the company he keeps.” It was plain to see he had been keeping bad com- pany, although he decided to make «-change; he was changed, but still the words that had been conceived, they were there. They came forth spontaneously and voli- tionally as he moved by the Spirit. Now let us conceive more of our POSITIVE ideas and opinions. THEY SHALL NOT BE AS.,.'I‘HE.Y HAVE BEEN I have germinated the very atmos- phere with the Spfrit of the Con- sciousness of the PRESENCE of GOD, mankind shall hereafter, even though it be done unwillingly, think and»; act accordingly, for the atmos- the Spirit of the Consciousness of GOD’S PRESENCE. They shall not be as they have been, They shall not act as they have ‘been acting. My Spirit and My PRESENCE ‘shall continue totvvbroadcast the great‘ “Contagion” until all mankind shall recognize GOD’S PRESENCE, and all mankind shall eventually observe the actual KINGDOM of HEAVEN, “tangibi1- ated" and made REAL and PRAC- TICAL for all humanity. -Oh! it is a privilege‘ to"",live in the actual PRESENCE of GOD, in the Unity, of Spirit, of Mind, of Aim and of Purpose, how you can .unify yourselves together through concentration. Now, remember, the tvvave-length of W.O.R.-_ is V seven hundred (700). Isn’t it? Whatso- ever it is, you know how to get it. Dial in on it and you can get it. The Wave-length of ‘Salvation of which I AM expressing-—all may dial in on MY Wave-length; what- soever I AM manifesting, and what may be termed “ge»tting”as I AM reflecting it, it may be that you do not know that I AM GIVING it,—'—you may think I AM getting it, therefore, you dial in on it and j -see if you cannot also get it. may be termed. The “SPOKEN j worn)" YOUR RECEIVING—SET NOT CORRECTLY ATTACHED The very thought in the system from that angle of expression can be re—conceived and all can be par- takers of the identical that ‘was conceived and incarnated by One, ——-all can be the Incarnators of the same. We shall not be discouraged until this shall have been accomplish- ed . . . While I was looking and thinking, you could see the emotions and expressions "and the vibrations going over this Audience. Why was it? It was because the thought contacted, the mind contacted, it The thoughts con- tacting one and the other. Each being in the same vibration and in the same wave-length, naturally you would see the reflection of that_ thought going through each and all who are with one accord. If they do not express it in emotions, all as one, may, it may be that your Re- ceiving-set may not be correctly at- tached. It is possible that your Receiving—set may be properly ar- ranged, and yet it is possible that some of the tubes are burned out-— ‘short circuit or something of that If that isn’t it, it may be something else. You may not turn the Speaker on. If you do not turn it on, how can you expect touget the Message, athough you may have it “on the Station? A , Unless you . turn the switch on, you cannot expect for‘ your Radio to go out and get. it just because it is a Radio, unless you have the connection of the current that will cause the ‘Message to‘ come through your Radio that you might hear it. So ‘it is in all things. GOD in the midst of you, is MIGHTY to save. I shall not be discouraged until you shall realize GOD is MIGHTY to sort. "save ,and“a1l mankind can and will eventually be of one heart and of one mind, as said the Scripture. When this is accomplished, all can be partakers of the identical MES- SAGE as given. When one speaks, all will be) speaking; when one thinks, all will be thinking. thoughts from one will go through all. Isn’t that wonderful! YOUR SOUL AND SAVIOUR ONE -1 know “our visiting friends can say today, they -have never seen an " serve The ’ '\ Page 19 audience so much of one accord as these My Followers. “The Tree is told by the fruit it , = bears.” By your bringing your bodies into subjection firstly, and unifying your- self with Your MAKER, by letting nothing between your Soul and your SAIVIOUR, realizing your Soul and Your SA‘VIOUR are One, (Isn’t that wonderful!) that which was unified together, you could not get .'one without getting the other. Now isn’t that Wonderful! If you,,__lose Your SAVIOUR,‘ you lose your Soul, for they are so made. Now isn’t that wonderful! While they are unified together, they are the reality of the parable of man and wo-man when they are joined together. Man and wo-man, they are mere- 1y a parable, parably speaking of the Mystery of your Soul and Your SAVIOUR, how you should be join- ed to your SAIVIOUR in reality. If you lose your Soul, Isay, you lose Your SAVIOUR, and when you lose your SAVIOUR, you lose your -Soul,‘ but when you save your Soul, you have Your -SAVIOUR, for the two are unified when they that are join- ed to the LORD are one Spirit, ‘therefore, if you are joined to the LORD in Spirit, as "being termed, “Your Soul,” CHRIST is in reality your Soul-Mate, and there is no oth- er. " You cannot get one without getting the other. You cannot lose one without losing the other, for they are so closely joined together, as said the ‘Scripture. MICROSCOPIC EYE OF SALVATION ~ _ The Soul and the Spirit, they,are so closely joined together, nothing can sever them saving the Word of GOD. The Word alone is the only thing that can visualize or can ob- them, as a microscope can only see between the Soul and the Spirit. The conscious mind of men cannot see between the Soul and the '_Spirit. All human intellect cannot see between the Soul and the Spirit. A Webster could not see between the Soul andthe Spirit, for Webster de- clared the ,Soul is the Spirit. It is indeed wonderful! it, he could not see they were twain, ‘because they were so closely joined p, together. It only took the Micro: ‘scopic Eye of :Sa.lvation.to observe,’ He could not see ‘ Page 20 :5“ between the Soul and the Spirit. The wisdom of man cannot observe it. With all of their intellectual abil- ity, and with all of their human studies, it is a matter of impossib- ility for the conscious mentality of man to observe it, in reality, but Paul caught the glimpse of it by Faith, and he said, ‘The Word of GOD can discern between the Soul The “SPOKEN WORD” and the Spirit.” Isn't that wonder- ful? ‘(“Truly wonderful!“ assured the Multitude.) Upon this ‘Foundation, if you will stand, you will be able to unify your" Soul with your SAVIOUR, for we will no longer be twain, but one in reality, “for they who are, join- ed unto the LORD are one Spirit. I thank you. CAMPAIGN MONEY AND HOW IT WAS SPENT An examination of the official re- ports of the campaign receipts and expenses is both amusing and en- lightening. For instance, we find -that President Roosevelt alone of the presidential candidates has con- tributed money to his party’s cam- paign fund, ﬁs donation being the sum of ‘$500. Vice-President Garner and Republicans Landon and Knox have not donated anything to date. The Republican’s receipts thus far are slightly o-ver $5,000,000, their ex- penditures being but a hundred thou- sand dollars less than that. The Democrats claim that the G. O. P. chest has not been ﬁlled because the party members who usually do- nate large sums are smart enough ' not to contribute to a lost cause and the Republicans come back with the charge that their members. are afraid of New Deal reprisal in the form of income tax investigations, congressional inquiries, and the like, along with the ever present bug- aboo of more and higher taxes. Of the Republicans the greatest single contributor was William Randolph Hearst, who gave $30,000, with $25,000 each being given by Col. R. A. Guggenheim (copper), Prazier Jelke (oleomargerine), and John A. Roebling (wire). The Democratic ledger shows that receipts on hand when the campaign started were approximately $2,400,- 000, with expenditures to date $2,- 900,000, this apparent deﬁcit being made up by various l“st5unts” and private organizations. For instance,’ the Good Neighbor League raised almost $50,000 to aid the cause. Among the “stunts” the most pop- ular proved to be the testimonial dinner, which consists of an ordinary banquet menu, served as a testi- menial to, say 4 Thomas Jefferson», and paid for at an outlandish rate. Genial Jim Farley, F. D. R.’s right hand man and ringmaster, recently arranged such a banquet at the Phi- ladelphia Penn Athletic Club where he and 1,300 other Democrats ate fruit cocktail, consommé, filet mig- non, 7 two vegetables, combination salad, dessert and coffee. The cost of the meal was $100 per plate, the result, almost ‘$130,000 for the cam- paign chest! Radio is an ever increasing item of expense for the politicians who make ‘use of it. Among the minor parties alone, the Communists have an NBC bill of $35,000 for radio time. The Republicans are billed for the grand total of $265,000 thus far by "NBC ,the Democrats for $165,000. The Columbia Broadcast- ing System refuses to make any statements regarding its business with the political speakers but it is certain’ that the gross total for all the airtime taken up by the various presidential candidates alone will reach two million dollars ,, by the time the election results are flash- ed to a waiting populace. N at Contraband Two of FATHER'S children tell us of a trip they made up into the northern part of New York State, distributing copies of ~“The Spoken Word” on their way. At Niagara Falls they drove across into Can- ada, ' and when they came back across the line, an official stopped them to search the car. He flung open the rear -door, then he beckon- ed a fellow officer. ‘Come and see what we've got here,” he said. Pointing to a bundle on the back seat, he asked the driver, “How about it? Can we have some ‘Spoken Words?’.” ' Divine Reporter. Tuesday, November 3rd, 1936 How Can I Increase the Cir- culation of The “Spoken Word” and Hasten the Kingdom? Food For Real 'ﬁ1ought There are millions of followers of FATHER DIVINE who have Within themselves. the conviction that the ‘Kingdom of Heaven on Earth is at lhand. All who have this unshake- able conviction, and it is more than a conviction, it is a CERTAINTY— «want to see thi-s Kingdom come into universal expression as quickly as possible. . There is one way in which a great ,step forward could bemade and one ,. in which everyone can cooperate.

Tuesday, November 3rd, 1036 The “SPOKEN WORD?’ “Epoch Making” Cooperative Congress Plans Future Development ' , Columbus, Ohio-.-—Characterized by Henry J. May, General Secretary of the International Cooperative Alli- ance, as "an epoch making Congress in the development of the coopera- tive movement in America,” the Tenth Biennial Congress of The C0- operative League of the U.S.A. com- pleted its deliberations October 10 after deﬁning the relationship of or- ganized consumers to organized la- bo,r and agriculture and laying plans for continuation of the present pro- gram of rapid development. More than a thousand delegates and visi- tors representing directly 800,000 of the 2,000,000 members of consumers’ cooperatives in the U. S, Attended the three-day Congress. A highlight of the conference was a statement from William Green, President of the American Federa- tion of Labor, on the attitude of or- ganized labor toward the cooperative movement. "President Green's mes- sage, presented to the Congress by John F, McNamee, editor of the Brotherhood of Locomotive Engine- men and Firemen’s Magazine, de- clared: “The American Federation of Labor is ready to work with any con- structive movement ﬁor consumers’ cooperation. We realize what co- operation can mean to wage earners and are anxious to see a strong and lasting movement built up in this country.” The forthright declaration of approval should do much to speed the growth of city cooperatives which have been unable to keep pace with the tremendous development of con- i sumers’ cooperatives in rural sections. The Congress, in its closing session resolved to “cooperate with organized labor and agriculture to the fullest extent possible.” 7 ‘ The Congress also “reaﬂirmed its desire for peace between nations and the need for continuing the persistent eﬁort of the movement to create a new economic relationship which will ibring permanent world peace.” The movement also went on rec- ord asking the extension of the elec- triﬁcation program to all consumers; asked the creation of an agency sim- ‘ ilar to the Farm -Credit" Administra- for the purpose of assisting con-‘ sumers’ cooperative housing activities through the ‘furnishing of low priced credits. The Congress extended an invitation to the International Co- operative Alliance to; hold -its Trien- nial Congress in the United States in 1940. i ’ Recognizing the rapid growth of college cooperatives to the ‘point where 160 co-ops on 100 campuses now include a membership of 73,000 students, the body approved the work, of the National Committee on Col- lege Cooperatives and urged its con- tinued efforts in coordinating college cooperative activities, Following_the close of the Congress, the board of directors elected the offi- cers of The Cooperative League. Dr. James P, Warbasse was elected to ﬁll his tenth consecutive term as Pres- ident. The other «ofﬁcers are Howard A, Cowden, Vice President, E. R. Bowen, Executive Secretary and Mary E. Arnold, Treasurer.

It would bless one and all alike. Peo- ple believe in money. People believe they cannot live without money. Money inspires fear. Those who have . it fear its loss. Those who have none are afraid because without money they face hunger and discomfort. ‘Solve the money problem‘ and the pnoblem of fear, hatred, worry, pov- palsy,‘ arthritis, high blood“ erty, H pressure, heart trouble and war will be solved. .

Did you ever, try to figure out exactly What it is that makes an air-plane fly? I’m- sure _I never could have ﬁgured it out unless some- one had told me. This is it: The" slant of the wings and the speed of the plane creates a vacuum above the wings—and so long as that va- cuum is there: the plane can not fall. Of course as soon as a vacuum is , created anywhere the air "rushes back to fill it. This led to the old ‘formula—~“Nature abhors a v»ac‘tmm_” lThat is an attempt to personalize an ‘Bmpersonal fact. The fact is that ‘air rushes in to fill a hole in the at- mosphere just as the water on the beach rushes in to fill a hole a_ child makes in the sand. But the rush of the air-ship is so furious, so swift, that the air, for all its pressure, cannot fill it up in- stantly—and so, as long as the plane keeps going fast, there is that small, triangular hole in the at- mosphere ‘above it, a vacuum that holds the ship up as firmly as if it were hooked tight to some gigant-ic. bracket in the sky. Do A you remember that strange, half-humorous yet tremendously solemn verse in the Book of‘Job—- “He hangeth the earth upon noth- ing.” V _‘ And yet when an ultra-‘modern Sikorsky plane goes thundering through the heavens that is pre- cisely what it is hanging :to—no.th- ing._ And because of the complete- ness of that vacuum it cannot fall. No wonder these sky-‘men feel safer off the ground. They feel that so. long as they are on the ground many things may happen to them‘- afoot, or _ in» an. automobile, or rail- way :train',or on horseback, all sorts of misadventures may occur. Some- body or something may -run them down, .4 or run over them, o-r mash the"_h__1",,"up, one way or another. But so long as "they “stay in the sky, hanging. upon n'othing,i nothing ‘can happ"e‘h" to them. They hang there as ‘safe and’ -‘steady as if the Al- mighty had “resiuoeed a hook es big ' as Pikes ‘Peak’ and driven it into ARTHUR HOWLAND 5;+:_ the sides of the moon and hung them there. They cannot fall. It is often said that the meal- culably small things of the universe are as wonderful as the incalculably large. So you know it is by this "very same principle that the flies walk up-side-down about your ceil- ping so unconcernedly‘ in the sum- mer time. Each small foot of each" small fly is equipped with ‘an in- visible cup which creates a vacuum when he puts his foot down~—or up! and he cannot fall. He has to make a definite muscular effort to- pull his foot away fnom the ceiling; he can not fall by his mere weight. He is hung up there upon noth‘1n'g,"ye't that vacuum holds him tight and safe. Now in the case of the air-ship _ two things may cause it to start falling. ‘First, if the pilot slows up so that ‘the air can rush back into the vacuum before his ship has gone on to create a -new one, he will start to fall. Or if he takes too many liberties with the prin- ciples of equilibrium, he will begin to fall. He can “bank” his plane but if he makes too steep a bank he will lose -his vacuum and begin to fall. When -he “loops the loop,” of course he loses it altogether once or twice in the circle—Janc'l~-that is why he must be well up in the sky before he attempts it so that when he straightens out he can create a new vacuum to hang himself to. But for the long; steady flights- such as the mail pilots make, hour after hour, or the daring sea-flyers, who start*out so carelessly fo-r ‘the shore three’ :thousand miles away, that constant vacuum holds them constantly-satfe. All they want to be sure of is that they have fuel enough to keep them moving—and so long as they keep moving and keep their balance they cannot fall. They are hooked fast "on that mighty hook that is -more solid than granite and steel. ‘ I am -sure "there are many helpful spiritual analogies with this fact of the :up!‘.olding ‘poses of”-a‘ ‘vacuum’, that the Spirit might reves-1.~ Par‘- Page 23 Wticularly is this true in relation to the Truth as revealed by FATHER DIVINE.

How can such a soul tragedy oc- cur? ‘ Is it not that such a soul trifled somewhere with one of these two principles of motion or balance?

Any. form of life has got to express itself. And this Divine Life has got to be ex- pressed; it means motion, activity, progress. If we forget that, we are likely to-begin to fall.

The island of Madagascar, off the east coast of Africa, is a paradise for the species of primates called lemurs, which are also found in south- ern Asia and Africa. In spiteof an almost expressionless face, these small animals are of striking ap- pearance by reason of their big lus- trous eyes and pointed muzzles, In the species named Ring-tailed lemur this is increased by: a soft, woolly fur of‘ chinchilla tints and alternate black and grey rings on the -tail. Contrary to the true monkeys, the hind legs of_ the lemur are longer than ‘the front. They are harmless little creatures unable to hurt any- thing larger than insects and small birds which together with the fruit-s of the forest form their food. The smallest species are about ﬁve inch- es long. They travel in -troops, one species hi-ding by day in a nest built for shelter while another conceals itself in the tops of cocoanut palms, They glide ‘noiselessly thru the trop- ical forests in the dusk and the night, hunting their food, but when on the ground hop along like a «kangaroo. The young travel about by crawling‘ onto the mother's back, seizing her fur and holding on so tight she can jump without throwing them oif. That species which has. the strang- est appearance is the loris. This creature has great staring eyes with a patch of brown in the fur and the - same color in a stripe on the back and over the ears. Its foeod includes leaves an-d soft shoots and the eggs of birds." It sleeps rolled» up in a ball with one hand grasping the tree- branch on which it rests. Another species called the “aye-aye" could easily be mistaken for a large, long- toed squirrel.

The Arabian baboon -looks much like a trimmed French ~Poodle, being similar in size» and hav- ling‘ furry hair on sides, of head and tip of tail as well as body. They travel in large troops led by the older males, a few of which take :places on bushes and high rocks to watch for enemies.

E. WHITEHURST," Director of Highways, District of Columbia The Works Progress Administra- tion is taking the American farmer. o-ut of the mud. ‘ During the entire history of road building in -this country, no organ- ized effort was made on a national scale to extend the beneﬁts of im- proved highways to rural America until the Works Progress Adminis- tration launched its stupendous road- A street program last year. True, the money spent by the WPA on roads was, and still is, in- cidental to the primary objective of providing employment. But this does not diminish the permanent ad- vantages that are being provided for motor vech'icle users, and es- pecially for farmers who’ for years have had to fight mud, ruts and dust in transporting their produce to markets. The fact that the work, thus done serves the double benefit of creat- ing jobs and adding thousands of miles of improved highways to the rural road system is one of the most commendable features of the entire work-relief program. V What the WPA highway program means to motor vehicle traffic in rural America can be grasped more clearly if we first consider the status of the highway system in relation to organized improvement. There are approximately 3,040,000 miles of rural roads in the United States, that is, roads outside of municipalities. Of this total, ap- proximately 165,000 miles are hard- surfaced, while around 900,000 miles have received some kind of improve- ment, ranging from makeshift drain- ing and grading to various ‘types of .low—cost surfacing. This leaves more than 2,000,000 miles of roads that, * prior to the beginning of the WPA highway program, never had received any improvement other than the handshovel, horse-scrape work of the type that dates from Colonial days. In this connection, I want to em- phasize the splendid job that is be- ing done on the Nation’s primary highway system through the joint efforts of the United States Bureau of Public Ro-ads and the various "State highway departments, and by 1:12.11:/' coun les on their secondary roads. Highway funds have been administered economically and effi- ciently, in most cases,‘and the thou- sands of miles of excellent highways that connect cities‘ and towns all over the country are a tribute to the‘ ‘Federal-State systemﬁ under which these roads have been con- structed. ’ However, the lack of funds with which to extend this improvement "program to farm-to-market roads simply left the farmer in the mud, or dust, depending upon the weath- er. It remained for the W0-rks Prog- ress Administration to “go back in-“ to the country” with an all-weather road program. * i It was mid-year 1935 when the WPA, seeking an effective method of providing employment for able- bodied, destitute men in rural Amer- ica, instructed the State administra- tors to receive and submit appli- cations for meritorious road build- ing projects. It was specifiedithat these projects must be off the Fed- eral-aid system, and off the various State highway systems. That call for rural road projects brought the dawn of "a new era in American road-bui1ding—organized improve- men? of farm-to-market roads! The immediate result was that applications were submitted for 'farm-to-market road projects total- ing more than a billion dollars. Keep in mind that the applications were submitted by the responsible heads of local governmental units, in most cases counties, and that‘ in practically all ‘cases the sponsors were required to contribute a con- siderable portion of the cost. Also, the sponsors were required to show that workers could and would be taken from relief rolls for all labor necessary to carry on the proposed work. ' ' Naturally, the WPA did not have funds to supply this huge demand for ' rural ro-ad work. But it did launch programs in all States. More than 130,000 miles of neglected farm-to-market roads are being im- proved already. As of last April 15, farm-to- market road projects calling for the expenditure of $124,000,000" by the WPA and $43,000,000 by the project sponsor,atotal of $167,000,000, had been selected" for operations. Many of these projects had been com- pleted at that time, while others were still in progress. While farmers benefit directly from these’ improved roads in "the -operation of their own passenger cars and -trucks, benefits likewise will be, extended to rural letter car- riers, school busses, and all, other motor vehicles that serve rural com- munities. V ‘The WPA farm-to-market road program_'will reach only a fraction -of the total rural road" mileage. But it is a start and its influence will be permanent. Farmers in thousands of instances will learn for the first time what it ‘is like to drive over all-weather roads. They will demand that the improvement program be continued. ' In fact, the influence of what has .been done during the last year is already apparent. The new High- way Act passed by the recent Con- gress authorized $25,000,000 a year for two years for “improvement of secondary and farm-to-market roads, these funds to be matched by the States and administered as a part of ‘Federal—aid work. Meantime, work on streets in cities has not been neglected. On the contrary, in the District of Columbia alone, several miles of new highways, with light surfacing have been built. This work together with extensive grading, and- roadside beautification projects has given em- ployment to as many as 2,300 men. The value of these improvements cannot be gauged in dollars. The Nation has benefited immeasurably not only through unemployment" re- lief, but’ through the benefits of the highway development.

FD. TIME: 12:35 A.M. The great multitude that congre- gated in the Auditorium and Ban- quet Hall of the Headquarters, had been assembled, apparently, all day, and at this late hour of the Evening, «the crowds cont-inued to come. All came for one specific purpose, and that purpose was to BEHOLD the BODY of GOD. “In UNITY we stand, but divided we fall.” This is an old axiom, but it is truer than ﬁction. FATHER DIVINE, “the_ DEAN of the Uni- verse,” has improved, revised. and de- veloped this thought. HE says: “By the unity. of Aim, of Mind and of Purpose, we can accom- plish all things in CHRIST, but by the disrecognition of our unity with GOD, we will be failures." This recognition inevitably brings results. With the uniﬁed concentra- tion of thought on the FUNDA- MENTAL, on the part of that mighty host, the Contact was made with the LORD who was then in the Prom- ised Land. With minds unabated, with. their attention directed whole- heartedly won the SAVIOUR FATHER DIVINE, the FUNDAMENTAL, with their hearts pulsating with Merri- ness, with their Praises and Thanks- giving coming forth in true convic- tion, the thousands in this particular ' building, here assembled, reached the THRONE of GOD, (“the MIND of GOD,”) and caused HIM to answer their request, according to I-IIS-Prom- ise and return Home to the City to . see them. . “Before they call, I will AN- ' SWER, and while they are, yet I speaking, I will HEAR,” and again,‘ , ‘ “Wh'atsoever ye ask in Faith, -be-, 1ieving,"'-ye‘ shall ‘rec9.iv§.” /N4’ Much rewarded were Followers and all present, »when FATHER DIVINE dnove up to. the KINGDOM Door. This was a speedy answer to Prayer, and although millions. and millions were calling on FATHER DIVINE, from all parts of the world, just as they Eternally have done, and always shall do, it did, however, please GOD to PERSONALLY return to the New York City Head,q.uarters,, while IM- PERSONALLY, HE was PRESENT here, there andeverywhere, to Bless and to bestow Blessings upon the true and faithful, and to answer their faintest cry and to grant them their fondest desire. . FATHER showed HIS Smiling Face and HIS HOLY PRESENCE to the multitude as HE PERSONALLY served the‘ Banquet.‘ In our midst were many visitors an_d strangers, At the Banquet Table, sat three Min- isters, Rev. John Keveetin, and Rev. John Brave, both of New York City, and Rev. Oswald Blumit; Minister & Supt. of Orphan Houses, Latvia in Europe. ‘The two Ministers,of,- New York, in response to the "cordial In- vitation extended them ‘to speak, if they cared to, only rose in acknowl- edgment -of the invitation and said a very few Words, Rev. Blumit said: “Sometime ago I readin Latvia, ~a wonderful? account in the daily paper about FATHER DIVINE, and I thought it was only astory. I hardly could believe that it could be true, but tonight I am witness to all of what has been said in the . «paper, is true . , . I came from the Continent of Europe; You read in the papers that Europe is the scorned center of the world. Peo- ple in Europe are in arms, each against the other. People against people; nations against nations, and here tonight we see people of’ va- rious nationalities all happy here". I see Religion enjoyable.‘ I really could not believe that Heaven could be better, and I count it ‘a very ’ great pleasure to beihere tonight, and certainly on my return‘ to Eu- , nope, I -51.1311 report everything I have seen and experienced here to,- night.” The “Bread of Heaven,” which we waited for, did not come forth from the Ministers, neither from the As- sembly, therefore, since our Soul , hungereth and thirsteth after RIGHT- EOUSNESS, we looked unto the LORD for the satisfying thereof, and HE did satisfy o.ur ‘hunger and quenched our thirst. HE spoke “GOOD HEALTH, GOOD WILL and GOOD APPETIT ” into existence, by the mere speaking of- His Words’. On the Banquet Table before us, were A pmnpkins, huge in size, and other vegetables and fruits from the Prom- ised Land, As FATHER said’ in this MESSAGE, this is but a sketch and a reflection of what GOD has done for the children of men, and ‘on the other hand, it proves when GOD speaks, into action “GOOD APPE- »TI'1,‘E” HE -is able to supply our physical, mental and Spiritual hun- ger. We thank THEE"-*SA',VIOUR for this Precious Gift of THY LOVE. * * * PEACE EVERYONE: (“PEACE FATHER DEAR!” came the responsive greeting of the,.peo- . ple.) GOOD HEALTH! GOOD WILL and 8. GOOD. APIPETITE. -When I say “GOOD HEALTH,” 1’ mean for you .to have GOOD HEALTH, and when I say “GOOD WILL,” I mean for you to have that Will of which was spoken of by the Spirit as being «termed “the Angels,” when the As- » trologers were going down to Beth- Iehem: “ I “GLORY to GOD in -t-he High- est, and on earth PEACE,_GOOD WILL to man.” For this cause I came, and for- this purpose I stand, to bring about GOOD HEALTH, GOOD APP-ETITE‘ and GOOD WILL to all mankind, that an of the ,_nations of the ieanth together, maybe UNIFIED, ‘There will be no division ainabng the nations‘ of the \ Tuesday, November 3rd,. 1936 V ' "hence, through . , this Morning: Tuesday, November 3rd, 1936 earth, not more than there was in the beginning of the Creation of the world. i I need not say ‘more. I have not . arisen to speak. I hav-e arisen to let you see ME——(The cheers and ap- plause interrupted the sentence.) I must repeat since you split the sen- tence: I said, “I have arisen to let you, or to allow you to see ME in PERSON as I, AM.” . . . I will not speak so much in Words, but I will speak in Actions, and I will cause men, to reﬂect ' MY Characteristics, and they will Voluntarily and volition- ally walk in MY Statutes. ‘ . .v FONDEST , IMAGINATIONS MADE A REALITY It is a privilege to realize whatso- ever you can surmise, GOD can bring it into your conscious realization by bringing it into outer expression and materially manifesting it. your fondest imaginations concerning the imaginary Heaven can be made a reality wheresoever you are, for your imagination through concentration can be transmitted, incarnated and inculcated in the lives of the p;.'6ple, as it has been manifested in millions and brought into materialization; reincarnation and through living in the recognition of GOD’S PRESENCE consciously, that which you have surmised shall be materialized and. personiﬁed. I believe that little thought in it- self is enough to convey to the Uni- verse the signiﬁcance of visualization, the signiﬁcance of recognition and the significance of the realization of GOD’S PRESENCE. One of My original Mottoes composed as a Com- position for the consideration of mil- ‘lions, I will call your attention to it ) “The Spirit of the CONSCIOUS- NES,,S'of the PRESENCE of GOD, ’ ‘is the SOURCE of all supply, and it wil-1,—,——a.nd it DOES SATISFY every good desire.” D It is a privilege to realize as you recognize GOD'S PRESENCE, GOD can and will “tangibilate” each.and every desirable Blessing you shall have visualized. Everything that is visible, at one time, it was invisible. It is brought into visible, or outer‘ V expression through the conscious con- cept of some individual. Just look Tat the produce of the Promised All of _ The -sroatnlv worm" Land! Behold those. pumpkins and Iother vegetation-—in other vegetables, The » Hand of Nature GOD uses as His Faithful Servant, and the, Art is " also recognized in the great Universal scheme of things, but the Hand of Nature GOD uses expressly as His Faithful Servant. Isn't that wonderful? (“Truly won- derful!” assured the Hearers, as they ? observed the 62 pound’-pumpkins and other produce, on the Banquet Table, from the Promised Land.) ' IMAGINARY HEAVEN PASSED AWAY That which may apparently be the most pleasing to the eye of mankind, it may apparently be the Hand of Art, but without the Hand of Nature, your existence would not last very long. As I aforesaid, these are just some slight sketches and reﬂections of what GOD can and will do for the children of men, by bringing HIM and His Mercy, yet His MAJESTY,. DOMINION‘ and AUTHORITY down with them, As Is-aid herethe other day, we need not send up a kite to get the Lightning for light, that was done in those days:—In the beginning, of this Civilization, it was essential" for the inventors to go through such performances, but today, without any such unnecessary performances, twe may switch a button, and the Lights 4 will go on. We may switch a but- ton, and the music will be heard. We may switch a button and our ﬂoors are swept. We may switch a button and our coffee is made. Isn't that wonderful‘? GOD in the midst of you is MIGHTY to save,——coming among you, making HIMSELF RE,-, AL, TANGIBLE an'd PRACTICAL from every angle expressible; no ,longer in the mythological and the imaginary Heaven, for such a Heav- en has truly passed away. If the mythological Heaven has not yet passed away, I AM eradicating it in your consideration, and‘ causing it to be dispelled in your conscious- ness, that imaginary Heaven of ‘which John was speaking. He de- clared he saw a NEW HEAVEN and a NEW Earth, for the ﬁrst Heaven and the first earth ‘had, passed away_ “I John,” declared he, “saw the Holy City and the New Jerusalem, coming down.fr'om GOD out of Heaven, pre- pared as a bride ad-orned for her h_usba.nd.*'= ' words, I Page 27 . - THE MYSTERY REVEALED . We realize the mystery is- now re- vealed:—-that which was in your im- agination shall give up to the con- scious recognition and the realiza- fion of the “Tangibilization” of that which you had imagined. Now isn't that wonderful! There. are those of «our Agriculture Department, who did not exactly imagine such a great Un- foldmeunt of‘ vegetables, expressing the Handiwork of GOD through the Hand of Nature, as there has de- veloped at this particular Harvest. They did not think the crop would produce so much as it did, but what says the Scripture? GOD spoke through the mouth of Moses and said, “If you love.ME and keep My Commandments, Blessed shalt Thou be. in the city, and Blessed shall Thou be in the ﬁeld, Blessed shall be the fruit of Thy body, and the fruit of thy ground, and the fruit of thy cattle, the in- crease of thy kine, and the ﬂock of thy sheep. Blessed shall be thy basket and thy. store. _ , Blessed shalt thou be'When thou comes in, and Blessed shalt thou » G7 be when thou goest -out. The LORD shall com,mand the Blessing upon thee in thy store- houses, and in all that thou settest thine hand unto; and HE shall Bless thee in the land which the LORD Thy GOD giveth thee.” ' Now isn’t that wonderful? At this, we recognize the actual PRESENCE of GOD made REAL, TANGIBLE and PRACTICAL, therefore, the rec- ognition of GOD'S PRESENCE_has become to be proﬁtable. We ‘can .but prosper, for HE said, “I will Bless you, and you shall PROSPER wherein to the land wherewith I have sent you.”‘ Just behold the materialization of Spiritual things, and the Spiritualiza- .tion of material things, GOD spir- itualizes material things and mate- rializes Spiritual things, that the two might be one, as was requested by the Spirit, to pray to let the KING- . ., DOM from Heaven come, and the ,W’ill on the earth be, done. Paze 28 . MINISTERS AND POLITICl'ANS PRESENT We enjoyed the visitors, and es- pecially the Ministers,lpolitician_s and speakers, for we are looking for something from them. Ministers of the Gospel and other speakers, I AP- PEAL to you‘ to PRESENT your message as a sacriﬁce and as a gift to RIGHTEOUSNESS, TRUTH and JUSTICE for whichlstand. It is in- deed wonderful! We do look forward to seeing every denomination from every Religion, and all of the divers connections coming up, bringing their respective talents and presenting them into expression, that they might be of real service in the advance- ment of the KINGDOM of HEAV- EN. NO MORE DEPRESSION The Vegetable Kingdom is willing- ly SURRENDERING. Now isn’t that Wonderful? 'The‘re is the out- ward expression as a sketch and a reﬂection of a: percent, of a percent, of a fraction of a grain of a percent of the mystery of the Vegetable King- dom SURRENDERING. The Ani- mal Kingdom, as they increase and multiply in the Promised Land, is an outward expression, of the willingness of the animals too SURRENDER- ING. Now isn’t that wonderful? Of the increase of the cattle and of the pigs, -of the chickens and of the ducks, of the turkeys, guineas and geese and everything else you may desire ‘to eat being increased and multiplied by the Recognition of the i PRESENCE of’ GOD as GOD has been ‘exempliﬁed. By this, we shall have the ABUNDANCE of the FULLNESS openly manifested, and after awhile we shall have no more depressions, welfares, charities of . other types will be expressions and organizations of the past. It is indeed Wonderful? . (“Truly wonderful!” \ voiced the multitude.) Why live in lacks and wants and limitations when GOD through His Condescension is here on earth with , you, bringing SUCCESS and PROS- PERITY, bringing HEALTH, WEALTH and HAPPINESS, bring- ing all WISDOM, KNOWLEDGE and UNDERSTANDING, an-d every other desirable expression from the FOUNT of HIS OMNISCIENCE and from HIS OMNIPOTENCE? that wonderful?. Now isn’t, The “SPOKEN WORD" THE MAKER AND CREATOR 015‘ THE EARTH Upon this Foundation if you will stand, you will surely see that the KINGDOM of GOD, in reality, Uni- versally will be as it is here at hand; as you will see it is at hand, It will no longer be in the imaginary realm, for GOD through His Condescension is working cancellation on your im- agination [concerning the KINGDOM of HEAVEN. Isn't that Wonderful? I AM doing away with that imagin- ary Heaven, and I AM bringing in- to the oonscious recognition and the ‘realization of millions, the REAL- ITY of the actuated PRESENCE of GOD, Your SAVIOUR, the MAKER and the CREATOR ofearth and of HEAVEN. Npw isn’t that wo'ﬁdé.r- ful! By this we shall have a RIGHT- EOUS GOVERNMENT, and at’ THIS NAME every knee must bow, and every tongue must confess that GOD through His Condescension has truly COME in the Flesh . , . HE came in the Flesh to save you from a sin- ner's death, to save you from the cross of which mankind has been ' under since the Foundation of the world. Now aren't you glad? Mankind will marvel at the Un- foldment of this Mystery,——GOD in His Own Love and Mercy, through His Condescension, yet HE will stand ABSOLUTELY INDEPENDENT to every other expression, saving His own DOMINION. Live in this Re?» ognition, Beloved Ones, and the ABUNDANCE of the FULLNESS of the Consciousness of GOOD, no space will be vacant of the FULLNESS rthereof. All mankind shall eventu- ially realize it is no longer necessary to look up to the sky, for GOD in His Love and Mercy has truly come in answer to your Prayers you all have prayed: “Let Thy KINGDOM come, and let Thy Will be done on earth as it is in Heaven.” ESSENCE OF HEAVEN \ When you learn, to recognize GOD’S PRESENCE, and live on earth as in HEAVEN, the reality of the Essence of HEAVEN will come through transmission , by your con- centration on the FUNDAMENTAL. When you get the Essence of it, you have it, All you must needs do, “ -is to. “tangibilate” it, materialize it Tuesday, November 3rd, 1986 and personify it, then all mankind shall realize you have it, in reality. I need not say more. The “tan- gibilization” of your fondest imag- ination is a Living Reality, and the. cancellation of your external imag- ination, and your mortal version con- ;-cerning HEAVEN,/I AM working cancellation on it. “The first Heaven and the ﬂrst earth are passed away, and there is no more sea, for the former things are passed away,” Y'ou do not see ME have the former affairs. Isn't that wonderful? We have Banquets daily, but We have them ordinarily according to our daily existence, merely manifesting One Eternal Expression of PERFECT living. BRIN G PEACE OUT OF CONFUSION _ Oh! it is a privilege to realize GOD in the midst of you is MIGHTY to save, bringing PEACE out of con- fusion, bringing CLEANLINESS out_ of ﬁlthiness, and bringing RIGHT- EOUSNE.SS -out of unrighteousness and wickedness, and soberness out of debauchery, therefore», GOD, Him- self, through His Condescension shall ’.be ESTABLISHED in the Land of the Living, and no longer be classed among the dead. (“Truly Wonder- ful!” voiced the Assembly.) GOD is a GOD of the living, and not a GOD of the dead. Now isn’t that wonderful! _ Up-on this Foundation if you will stand, you will not have an occasion to fret nor worry, for 10, I will be with you, and will give VICTOIRY ,from every angle of expression, for {the Mouth of GOD has spoken it. I thank you, I would just like to say, while we have enjoyed the presence of the ministers who have made themselves known, and their statements, we are pleased to know that thereare oth- ers in this Dining Room and Audi- torium. We would be pleased to hear from them. If you are in the Dining Room, your voice can be heard over ‘ this Building, in the Auditorium and dormitories and other Extensions around and about this Building as well as in the street. Your voices -can be heard in this Block in 115th Street, and also in 114th Street, That is the signiﬁcance of the Invention of ._ -«. , g_..—,., .. . Tuesday, November 3rd, 1936 Electricity. That is why GOD can endorse it so vividly, because of the Mystery being scientiﬁc, ‘and yet be- ing practical and proﬁtable and help- ful to the children of men. ELECTRICITY SERVANT OF MANKIND The very Invention in itself, as it is put forth, is one of the great In- ventions that is a servant to all man- kind. It can serve you in more ways than any other Invention commonly known among us. Isn't that Won- -derful? Then I say, the Invention of Electricity in itself, inventionally- par-ably, it was speaking of the Mys- tery of GOD through transmission by your concentration would come to you, and you would no longer have an occasion to look up in the sky to the Heaven to see. the LORD de- scend. Truly might_haVe the Angels said, as they appeared to be, when JESUS Ascended, er ' ‘ .: "Ye men of Galilee, why stand ye gazing up into Heaven? This same JESUS, which is taken up- from you into Heaven, shall so come in like manner as ye have seen HIM go into Heaven.” ' “As you see HIM go, in the same like manner shall HE return,” It was to let them know their minds should no longer be in the graves, neither their eyes in the sky, for the Recognition of GOD'S EVE«R-PRES.- ENCE with them, according to His O Own Statement, “Lo, I AM with you always." It would bring HEAVEN, in reality, in the place of misery. INVITED TO - SPEAK I did have a party speak to ME 3. little, While ago, making himself known, if he would like to have a word, to say, I would be pleased, and all would be pleased to hear from him. He was a gentleman from Texas, also, we have a la-dy who made herself known,’ a little while ago, from Florida, if she would like to have a word to say, if she is in the Building, in the Auditorium, or in the Dining Room, she is..,welcome to come forward and have a word to say_ If there are any other speak- ers, whether you are a politician or a Religious Speaker, Lecturer or Speaker, it makes no difference, for all. must RECOGNIZE the actual The “SPOKEN WORIY’ PRESENCE of GOD, and you can only RECOGNIZE HIM by freeing yourself in your subjects, and speak- ing according to the dictates of your own conscience. I“ thank you. * * * (FATHER speaks again as fol- lowszl ,' PEACE EVERYONE: (“Peace FATHER DEAR!” greet- ed the Assembly.) I AM waiting and listening to hear from our visiting friends. Of course, it is true, I do talk a little too much MYSELF. You all hear ME daily over and over again, and the public hears ME through MY MESSAGE, I have re- leased, and I AM releasing da.il~y,— not merely as a Book written once -a year; but MY. MES-SAGE is released to the Press weekly and daily, there- fore, you can hear ME when you do not hear others personally. I AM re- fraining from speaking, because I de- sire to" hear from other Ministers of the Gospel, Lecturers, Speakers and Teachers, Politicians and other rep- resentatives of our ‘Speakers, we are always glad to hear from you, 1 thank you. >3 * =3‘ _ (After a short, brief interval -of silence, FATHER arose once again, and said the following:) PEACE EVERYONE: (“Peace Throng.) If you do not speak, I AM not to be blamed. 'I have freely LORD!“ resounded the -. Page 2!) opened the Way for you. It is writ- ten: “I set before you an Open DOOR.” The Door has been opened wide; mt only so, but “by their works ye ‘shall know them,” and “they overcome,” or in other words, “They overcome by the Blood of the LAMB, and the testimony they held.” If you have a testimony, you may speak‘and act accordingly.

" 1 C The Only Way to Magnify con and‘ HIS NAME Is to Unify Yourselves as “One Ma-n at Jerusalem” Roosevelt Resumes Executive Duties With the excitement of the cam- paign over and his nearly unanimous re-election in the electoral college, President Roosevelt is on his way back to Washington where he will again dive into the business of the Nation. His arrival to the Capital will be that of a returning conquering hero and a parade followed by a giant in- L formal celebration has been planned for Mr, . Roosevelt. There are several vital issues await- ing the *President’s immediate atten- tion, the most important of these be- ing: (1) Settlement of the Pacific and Atlantic seaboardrmaritime strike that is cripplinggshi-pping; (2) Fill- ing of twelve high government offi- cial positions; (3) Plans for new leg- islation——revision of tax structure; Peace negotiations; Government eco- M nomic revision bills; and new labor legislation; and (4) Preparations for an extended vacation that may carry the President to Buenos Aires in time to attend the Pan-American -Peace . Conference on December 1st. Almost a “H:ridf'ul” Can Supply All Needs An amazing report was released the other day by the American So- ciety of Industrial Engineers. One has to look at the ﬁgures twice to believe the evidence of their eyes——- but nevertheless engineers maintain. that the ﬁgures are true. 500,000 men, the Society report di- vulged, can create and produce all that the nation used in one of its peak years-1929! This is technol-ogical progress with a vengeance! The “report, amazing as it his, is — ,, merely an impersonal report of things as they are.) ‘ P ..\ No. 6 ‘If You Are ,the Reflector, .Manifestor or Expresser of Prej- udice, I Came to Cast You Out’—FATHER DIVINE ﬁr OUR FATHERRS MESSAGE at the BANQUET TABLE 20 WEST 115th STREET NEW’ YORK CITY TUESDAY, OCT. 27, 1936 A.D.F.D. ’ TIME: 1:00 P.M. The phrase quite often repeated by FATHER: ‘GOD is not a Race, Creed, nor Color, and HE is not a Respector of persons,'—should be stamped in the memories of each and every individual, and ;especially those who claim to be staunch Believers, Followers, Co-Workers and Friends ,of FATHER DIVINE. - ' Many times the expression: ‘FA- THER came to put you DOWN. and put me UP,’ is used‘ by some who think» that FATHER is in their likes ness,——to someone whom they think looks different fromthemselves; but it is not true, for GOD is not repre- senting a Race, Creed, nor a Color, but HE represents ONE Race, and that is the ‘HUMAN RACE.’ If such were true, then GOD would be limit- ed, but it is not so, therefore He is LIMITLESS in His Expressions and in all of His Activities among the‘ children of men. , If mankind could only realize that FATHER has come not only to re- deem a certain Class or Race of people,» but He has come for the Re-‘ demption of the World, in -other words, All Humanity. Let us come to- gether as ‘one rnan at Jerusalem,’ and do away with those old pre- inherited and pre-conceived ideas and opinions that have been handed‘ down through the Ages,-that we are of some Race or Color or Creed, for ‘ IT’IS NOT TRUE, IT WAS A LIE FROM THE BEGINNING! Get rid of that old mortal concept that has been implanted in the hearts and vminds’ of the children of men, and recognize your ONENESS with man, and then all will be ONE with our GOD, our SWEET FATHER DIVINE. By ﬁrstly being uniﬁed with our fellow-brother,——then and only then can we unify ourselves with GOD, and receive His LIMITLESS BLESS- INGS and His Love and Mercy which are ﬂowing so free for ALL. All should read this Wonderful soul- stirring Message given by our FA- THER, which has been recorded for the beneﬁt of all. ' ‘PEACE’ ' Peace Everyone! (‘Peace FATHER,’ echoed the audience in response.) Here I AM, THERE I sit and stand, the same as I have been, but ap- parently coming forth in expression again. I can say as I have always said, ‘GOOD HEALTH, GOOD WILL, A GOOD APPETITE, WITH GOOD MANNERS AND GOOD BEHAVI- OR,——WITH ALL WISDOM, KNOW- LEDGE AND ALL UNDERSTAND- ING, AND ALL OF THE. DESIR- ABLE CHARACTERISTICS FOR HUMANITY, WITH THE _ AT- TRIBUTES OF GOD TO BACK THEM!’ It is indeed Wonderful! A/PREJUDICE NOT OONFINED TO RACE Just like to say at this particular I juncture whilst a thought came to MY Mind for consideration, as there is an expression as 3. detestable char- acteristic among humanity, c0Inmo:;- ,‘ _ p 1 ., Page 4 1y known as ‘PREJUDICE,’—PRE- JUDICE is an expression the same as the Principle of Mathematics, it is not conﬁned to a Race, Creed nor Color,‘ but it is an abstract expression CONCEIVABLE, RE-INCARNAT- ABLE and INCULCATED in the hearts and lives of mankind, where- soever they will allow such tenden- cies of SELFISHNESS and . other “DETES'1‘ABLENESS’ to exist,—- there is where the expression of that which is commonly known as ‘PRE- JUDICE’ is found. GOD TO CRUSH HEAD OF SERPENT ' As-I’ say, it has been said by fnen of Modern Times,—‘if a dog bites a person; commonly known as a ‘MAD DOG,’ that person as a rule, unless something is done, will also go mad,’ so I am informed. Prejudice, hate, _and other detestable tendencies from the prejudice and selﬁsh nature of humanity,—they have been biting the consciousness of humanity in every Nation, Tongue’ and Language, and in and among every People, I am mentioning this because I came to CRUSH THE HEAD OF THE SERPENT ‘PREJUDICE,’ whereso- ever he presents himself, or raises his HEAD among us! These thoughts are well worth considering, as PRE-. ‘JUDICE is if detestable character- istic of ‘selﬁshness manifested in Hu- manity. It is an expression that is IMPERSONAL, saving as it is i°n- carnated in a person or persons, and developed and manifested and per- soniﬁed, as the expression of the POSITIVE, yea the PERFECT, your SAVIOUR. The POSITIVE, the PER- FECT, the REAL,——your REDEEM-. ER as I'MPERS’ONAL'; all of these qualities and names of HIM are ‘RETNCARNATABLE, REPRODUC- IBLE and RE-PERSONIFIABLE, al- though they are IMPERSONAL and ' NON-RACIAL or INTER-RACIAL and "INTER-NATIONAL and INTER.- DENOMINATIONAL,_. but these qualities as they are devel-opedin a person and that person brings his or her body into subjection to the Fundamentals of that especial ex- pression, then and there that person will become to be the PERSOsNIFI- CATION of that which was IMPER- SONAL. It WAS impersonal and IT IS im- personal; so it is with that expres- .» sion, commnonly known as fPREJU-A The WORD” DICE.’ I am speaking now for the good of those with whom we come in contact, and those among you of whom claim to be followers of MINE, yea followers of ME; I stress the signiﬁcance of SELF-DENIAL and of FASTING from those preju- dicial seed ideas and opinions that have been pre-conceived in you, to hold a thought‘AGAINST a person because of ‘his COMPLEXION! Now, that ESPECIALLY I am stressing this morning,» for those of you who have the pre-conceived detestable characteristic of PREJUDICE re- ﬂected in you, who think you look something like ME, YOU ARE THE ONES I TALKING TO THIS MORNING! FOREWARNED T0 FAST FROM DETEXSTABLE TENDENCIES When we have visitors and friends and followers of MINE come in these audiences, because they are not YOUR complexion, that PRE,-JUDICL AL SEED IDEA OF PREJUDICE, BETTER KEEP HID IN ‘THE SUR- FACE AND OUT OF SIGHT, FOR I MAY CAUSE Y 0 UR PHYSIC- AL BODIES TO BE CAST OUT! I have forewarned some of these pre- conceived ideas and opinions, and pre- inherited detestable tendencies of the reﬂection of prejudice and selﬁshness, resentment and anger, with envy and other such detestable tendencies,——-I. have fore-warned you to FAST from them! Such kind of another fellow, better known by the Religions, ‘THE DEVIL OR DEVILS,’ will come out only by FASTING and by PRAYER. You must fast from your old pre- conceived tendency of a feeling,- your pre-conceived fancies, pleasures, and your mortal tendencies, to cre- - ate the ‘other fellow,’ or ﬁnd fault . with him through that pre-conceived PREJUDICE that has been there be-- fore you knew yourself. CAME TO PUT YOU DOWN . FAST from those old tendencies, and I will cast them out of you,- they can no longer have an existence within you, for GOD HIMSELF has come to enter, that HE might reign Supreme, and those tendencies be dispelled once and forever. Now some have passed a remark, have passed remarks I might say, but especially A REMARK: ‘FATHER came to put you down and to «put me up,’ "IT IS , not bring Saturday, November‘ 7th, I936 NO SUCH! If you are the personiﬁ- cation of selﬁshness and prejudice, I CAME TO PUT YOU DOWN! If you are the REFLECTOR, MANI- FESTOR or EXPRESSERV of preju- dice, I CAME TO CAST YOU OUT, therefore YOU are the one I came to PUT DOWN, and not the other fel- low. GET SELFISHNESS OUT OF YOU,-—‘GOD knows no Race, Creed nor Color, GOD is SPIRIT and IN- FINITE in character by Nature, and «GOD is IMIPERSONAL and INCOR- RUPTIBLE, and will not fade away. Then I wish to say, when such a thought rises within you, know with- in yourselves that old pre-conceived idea and opinion concerning your.- selves and your fellow-men,-they have arisen, but you should FAST from them, to make their silence as did the Christ concerning the_ one within whom dwelt . the legions, causing the man to cut himself to pieces, or in pieces, in among the tombs. Those old prejudicial seed ide- as and opinions, and .pre-conceived fancies, pleasures and tendencies of selﬁshness, will rob you of your right- ful inheritance and cause you as a person and as persons, to be cut off from the Land of "the" Living, and will not be able to enter into the King- do‘m in reality. THEY SHALL BRING BODIES WHEN THEY COME ,' Jot these thoughts down in your ‘vocabularies and remember what I have said, and MY Words shall not depart nor return to Me void. The earth was void in the Beginning, be- cause it was without form,—MY Words have gone out from MY Mouth, they SHALL NOT return to Me void! THEY SHALL BRING BO- DIES WHEN THEY_ COME! Truly the earth was void and without form, but when GOD said, ‘Let dry land ap- pear,’ the ear-th came into outer ex- ‘,pression according to the Scripture, that the earth might be matter-like, tangible, made real and practical, having form, that man could handle a part of it_and could feel it and see it, therefore it was no longer im- practical, voi-d and good for nothing, but it became good for something, instantaneously. So it is today with MY Words! When they go out from MY Mouth, they shall not return to Me void, they shall accomplish where- with 1., have sent them, if “ you will In.‘ .b9d s-,inte l1bjf,e\CH Saturday, November 7th,, 1936 tion, they will bring BODIES that will be true and faithful and will live and do accordingly, I WANT THIS TO BE THE LAST TIME,—when I am PRESENT or when I am AB- SENT, that one of those of you who claim to be one of MY followers, to rise up with any prejudicial idea pre- conceived,——expressing it in the midst of THIS PEOPLE. Your prejudicial seed ideas and opinions should have- been long since ‘eradicated and dispelled from among you,—the Love of GOD shall be established, and GOD HIMSELF shall have access among you, and none shall hinder the Spirit of MY Presence from express- ing through each and all persons, without regard to Races, Cfeeds or Colors. So it is a privilege to realize One as was declared by Daniel, shall rise in the Last Days in the defense of THIS PEOPLE, and shall SAVE His people, ‘IiSRAiEL.’ Now aren’t -you glad?

Oh it is a privilege to-realize, ‘GOD IN THE MID!ST OF YOU IS MIGHTY TO SAVE!’ I did not arise to go so far, but as I am ABSENT from your ‘presence in PERSON at times,—there ‘are those who are of that old pre- judicial se d idea and opinion of mortality arisingamong you, point- ing out MY Friends, MY Followers, MY Children, in the way of accusa- tion or condemnation to THEM,... the condemnation is in ,YOUR- SELVES, -unless you have a cause for such. It is indeed Wonderful! A fox actually hates a dog! When he sees a dog, if he sees him at a distance or actually smells him, the hair on his back and his tail will spread. Why? Because he knows he in himself is FOXY, he knows he will do something wrong to some other animal, and the animal known as a. ‘dog’ is his conqueror, therefore th dog. *b.€>.<=au'se.

GOD ALONE SHALL REIGN The Life of GOD is now RE- VEALED, and GOD ALONE SHALL REIGN, therefore I say, “Still your selﬁsh prejudiced minds, and let GOD speak‘' and act in them.’ I want this to be the LAST TIME when a thought arises in words, deeds or actions, in lithe way of expression as’ a reﬂection of prejudice among you, as the reﬂection of selﬁshness from your pre-conceived ideas and opini- ons, in hopes «of avenging some per- son for what you think some person in the likeness of some person you are resentful against, has done to you or someone you thought looked like you. Oh it is a privilege to re- alize, ‘GOD in the midst of you is mighty to save,’ bringing VICTORY where there was failure, bringing Peace, Joy and Happiness and Unity of Spirit, of Mind, of Aim and_of Purpose,‘ that all Mankind might be uniﬁed together without the slight- est reﬂection in words, deeds or ac- tions of prejudice, in the Name of GOD your FATHER.

The evil will automatically disappear, there will be no room for it, it will ' fade right away, for it cannot stay where CHRIST.is in full power. All unnecessary work will be elim- inated, -such as war instruments of any and every kind, anything to do with war will be utterly destroyed; all artiﬁcial beauty aids that are not necessary for personal cleanliness and similar things. Each will do their part towards the necessary things of life, according to their gifts and ability. At first they will be tending the ground to provide food for all, and the various other in- dustries, making things necessary for the good of the people, sewerage, water supply, electricity and all «other ‘good and useful things, Also trading will continue for a time,~ each country selling its sur- plus to others at a fair price, suffi- cient to pay for cost of production, this amount being used for further production. Ships, airplanes, trains and such means of transport will be used, and money will still be used for a time, askbeing convenient. Compe- tition of any and every kind will cease. , ' Banks will use their gold deposits to pay off their own and the coun- tries’ debts, and .a..1.1 money will be kept in constant circulation, so there will be plenty for all to use.

As people live in love and service, all things will work together in har- mony, and, it will be (impossible for “accidents” to occur. ‘ - As each one becomes ﬁlled with the deep, warm, impersonal love for eve- ry one else, all lust, passion and flesly desires will disappear, there- fore no births, each regarding the "other as brother and sister .

The actual necessary work will be divided up, as it will not be needful for any one to work more than a few hours each day. The work will be divided, so that people work in “shifts” or “relays” -of hours, divided up according to the nature of the work required to be done. This is the only “Government” that will be needed, as all live according to the Law of CHRIST, Cemeteries or burying grounds willl be changed into lovely gardens «of trees,and ﬂowers, where people may rest and glorify their MAKER. As man (mankind) becomes changed by the Life of CHRIST with- in‘ him, by living that life, all the . things that we have known will pass away_ By giving thanks, ‘Ill the food he needs will instantly appear; the same with his clothing; he will go from place to place without visible ‘means of transport; his body will never be soiled so willnot need wash- ing; sewerage and suqh things will’ disappear forever. , , The very beginning of these things may be found in life as it is.

REPEATS ITSELF ' By MEDIRATAS ‘ ' ‘ ‘\ I To a weary andhardpressed world more than 1,900 years ago, .came the Son of GOD, known as Jesus of Nazareth. He came to a group of people who we-re monotheistic, that is ‘to say, worshipers of -one GOD. These were people who claimed to be de- scendanlts of Abraham, the patriarch. Although. His -bodily appearance was among-this particular... group, yet as soon as heventered His ministry, "he made it clear to His hearers -that He had come» togall‘ mankind for he said, “Come unto me all ye that labor and \ are heavy laden -and I will -give you rest.” It shoul-d have been evident to all of the people of this dispensation in consideration of the marvelous Work He accomplished in healing the sick, reforming the sinners, raising the dead, feeding -the multitudes, walk- ing on the water, that He spoke with authority, when He said, “Come un- to me all ye that labor and are heavy laden,” He spoke with the authority ofone who ha-d the universal panacea ’ forall the ills the human mind could . “possibly conjure up and experience. ‘ History records, however, that this group of people were apparently too steeped in self and resigned to. the fate of mortality and thus few could comprehend an-d utilize His doctrine and enter into fellowship with HIM, which A state" He designated as the Kingdom of Heaven When HE closed His ministry in that Dispensation, according to the narrative, H,e"sat on the hillside over- . "looking Jerusalem and cried: “Oh Je- “rusalefn, Jerusalem, which kille-st the ' prophets, and sbonest them that are sent unto thee; how often would I ‘have gathered thy children together, a as a hen doth gather her brood under her wings, an-d ye would not! Behold, your house is left ‘unto you desolate: ‘ and verily I say unto you, ye shall not see me, until the time come when ye shall say, Blessed is he that com- eth in the name of’ the Lord.” This great Teacher, who was none ‘less than GOD in the Sonship Degree, ‘apparently disappeared Personally but His Spirit and the inﬂuence of HIS I Teaching, was the ileaven, that was -human consciousness. bound to do its Work in the lump of Dire distress, persqcution an-d evil have attended the experience of those who =re’f~u-sed this only way to the Consciousness of the harmony of the FATHER- SHIP Degree. To substantiate ‘the truth of HIS statements that He alone ‘had the remedy He -sta"’ced—.“I am" the way, the truth a.-ndthe life, no man cometh unto the FATHER. but by me” and again he said, “‘V'e‘r»ily, verily, I say unto you, I am the “door , of the ‘sheep. I, All that ever” c;am'e before ‘-me ar‘e,th_ie’ves and robbers: but the sheep did not hear them.” None that ever ca-me in a Personal ,«Body to the earth planevever spoke as didthe Son of GOD and none -of the words of prophet or seer have en- dured as have HIS Words. _ It has been rsaivd - that history *-re- peats itself and this adage has been fulfilled in our day, for the very same Spirit has again "come to the earth plane but this ‘time in the Fathership _ Degree and I-IIS( Name in this Dis- .pensation is FATHER DIVINE. Again He has brought to the world the remedy for the ills -of all mankind. Yes, HE has the remedy foreven the tempest-tossed and war-minded na- tions of the earth, But as of old I-IE came to a group ﬁrst and that group was found in America. In‘ this -great nation called the United States of America there was also misunderstandings, inequalities, lacks, Vwants, limitations, preju-dice, segregation, et cetera, yet everyone of these and all other evils, HE says, . will vdisap-pear when the remedy he offersis applied, As of old'.also, HE came in ‘meek- ness' and lowliness, yet in might and majesty, the very GOD Himself in "Bodily Form and as the prophets said, “He shall establish the King- dom Himself and it shall not be left to another.” . The remedy HE gave to Mankind is the Righteous Government Plat- form. This is the Gateway to Heav- en. Through the adoption and put- -‘ting into-practi*‘ce of this platform‘ the long looked for and anticipated rage 7 Kingdom of Heaven will b’ec’om'e a re- ality on the ‘earth plane. The politicians had their oppor- tunity to adopt this law of GOD but they chose the way -of man. ‘How- ever, the way of man is limitation, »di'sintegration,(' and annihilation. It is certainly the day when a ‘choice must be made. There’ is ‘still time for mankind to awaken but it must be done soon. VVe trust the recently successful political party who has_ just been voted into oﬂice b-y such a great ma- jority and it-s leader, may be imbued with the spirit of Christ and open their eyes to the wonderful oppor- tunity ‘that is offered to them with- out money and without price. The,‘ Righteous Government Plat- form of FATHER‘ DIVINE’-S Peace Mission Movement is the very stand- ard, rule and law of GOD and it must be ‘adopted by all mankind for Him to remain on the earth, ﬁor the earth is ‘now indeed the Lords and the ful»lA,ness thereof. This Kingdom of Heaven will be established through Righteousness, Justice and Truth as set forth in this DIVINE Platform. Whiat Is a Progressive? « Just what is aprogrressive? Many people these days, and es- pecially politicians, like to lay claim to that popular term——“progressive.” By a ‘progressive it is taken to mean—one who is progressive, an advocate of progress, of advance——a keen, alert-minded individual, open’ and liberal minded to constructive suggestions, reforms, etc., etc., etc. The word progressive denotes prog- ress or advance. One may be a “'progressive”—in the wrong direction. ' i This is the case with many of our politicians, bankers, capitalists and governmental geniuses. They are progressive—but in the wrong direction. They» are progres- sives, perhaps, but “progressive” in the pursuit of evil or ends which suit particularly their own sel_ﬁsh conven- ience, V It is all right to be a progressive. But We must be progressives in the right direction_ Both, the true’ liberal and the “off color” scheming p'o’l~itic-‘ian l-ay equal claim to the term “progr'ess‘iv‘e.” Which brings up some question -as to the actual distinction.

In a last-minute appeal to his fel- low citizens, he had challenged every- one to “vote as you think best for the kind of a world you want to_ have.” The answer was a vote unprece- dented every way: unprecedented in number of ballots cast, unprecedented in its approach to unanimity Roosevelt carrying every statebut two, Maine‘ and Vermont, and thus Winning all but eight of the 531 votes in the na- tional electoral college. Elected or re.-elected with him are suﬁicient members ‘of Congress to bring the Democratic membership of the House of Representatives to 332 and of’, the United States Senate to 75. Democratic governors were elect- ed in, 28 states. Governor Lehman was returned to Albany by a vote of 2,889,658 to 2,- 296,779 for Judge Bleakley. In the locality of Harlem the de- feat of Congressman Marcantonio in the 20th Congressional district is felt as a disappointment to many who have long admired the fearlessness of the young statesman, On’ the questions of New York City Charter, Pnoportional Representation, and .-an 8-hour day, or three-platoon system for city ﬁremen, the voters expressed an afﬁrmative verdict. As to the nation-wide triumph of President Roosevelt and the New .Deal a typical and signiﬁcant utter- ance was that of John L. Lewis, who .l1a’si been by recent events cast up ..a Saturday, November 7th, 1936 to a position of extraordinary power in the ranks of labor and whose in-, ﬂuence is recognized as having had much to do with the great ,pemo- cratic overture in his own state of Pennsylvania. Commenting on Tues- day’s events Mr. Lewis described the election as “a rebuke to the insol- ence and arrogance of organized wealth.” _ “It’s avarice and rapacity,” he add- ed, “have been checked and re- strained in the interest of the peo- ple-.” Although James A. Farley had threatened before Election Day to even up the score against Republican manager John M‘. Hamilton for what Farley believed to be the wholly un- justifiable bitterness of the G,O.P, at- tacks upon the administration, he i was so overjoyed at the ﬁnal results and at the exactitude with whic-h his‘ personal prediction of “all states but Maine and Vermont” was fulﬁlled that he called uponaeveryone to bury the hatchet and let by-gones be by- gones. Speaking over the radio shortly before midnight of Election Day, Farley said: “ -obody on our side of the fence has any thought of reprisal or op- pression. We may now look forward to four years of uninterrupted effort to accomplish the completion 'of’eco- nomic recovery, of industrial welfare ’,and the permanent establishment of real liberty in the United States.——I am sure the President himself enter- tains no bitterness. ,1-Ie i_s morethan ever the President of all the people, for all the people contributed to the splendid endorsement he has re- ceived.” COUNCIL AGAINST WAR Washington, Nov. 3rd, 1936.—~Neu- trality legislation extended by agree- ments with other countries, nation- alization of themunitions industry, a military and naval program for de- fense against invasion only, easing of international trade tensions, mili- tary withdrawal from the Philippines and maintenance of complete civil liberties were some of the points adopted by the annual conference of the National Council for the Preven- tion of War for its congressional pro- gram during the coming year.

V The Significance Of The Election The tremendously overwhelming victory that ‘Franklin D. Roosevelt scored over Alfred M. Landon is, to put it mildly, a “sign of the times.” When one man can receive 523 electoral votes to his opponent’s 8 electoral votes it means that the masses of the people have certain" definite ideas about certain definite principles. Democratic Chlairmzan James A. Farley stated: “It was a victory of Principle, not of Party.” And that hits the nail on the head! It was a victory for Progressive- ness. It was a victory for sincerity. It was even a victory for Radical- ness! ' , But this doesn’t complete the ana- lysis of the most amazing election in the History of the United States.‘ ‘The voters who ﬁled into the Na- tion’s polls on November 4th were_ not a “bunch o_f_sheep.” In con- trast to previous years, the voters of today are “wised up” to the Slick, smooth words of campaigning poli- ticians who are out4for,_se_1_fiSh gains- The voters of today’ are» using their own judgment; not .the judgment of their district “bosses.” They have been DIVINELY inculcated with an intuitive sense that can detect the true from the untrue; that can de- tect the sincere from the insincere. Tuesday’s election was a victory of the Masses; not of the Masters. And that -also hits the nail on the head! i They were RIGHTEOUS SEEK- ING Voters, and they are Voters that are going to be harder and harder‘ to fool as time goes on. In summing up the Election it must be included that ‘Roosevelt’s victory was also an endorsement of his “radical,” “communistic," and “‘socialistic” policies of government. And with the glorious mandate that he has received from the people to “GO AHEAD,” it can be more than surmised that President Roosevelt will carry forward his New Deal pro- gram with a renewed vigor. He will, no doubt, inaugurate new sweeping‘ reforms and he may. government - (SAINT LUKE) also attempt to draft a renovated National Recovery Act. Whatever steps the re-elected President takes, the most optimistic ~ observers are prophesying it will be a “four,-year nightmare” for‘ the staid old -Conservatives. Incidently, it might be mentioned that keen political observers I are predicting the collapse and disinte- gration of the powerful, and at one time invincible Republican Party ma- chine as a result of their crushing ,- defeat. , In conclusion it isinteiresting, and possibly significant, to note the fact that the man who just received the most tremendous vote of conﬁdence and favor ever accorded a human being, in the History of M:an'k.in»d— close to 28,000,000 votes-—’jui.st hap- pens to have initials (F.

ROASTED (Ready to.Serve)i E Saturday, November 7th, 1936 THE MARCI-ll OF COOPERATION ——-—-1:-——| ' :The “Private Interests” have erro- neously reported that the Coopera- tives in England, who have been ,'making. rapid strides, are on the verge of failure. 1 ‘-In direct contradiction to this mis- V’ information -it is pointed out- that the increase in co-operative mem.be.rship_ from 4,000,000 in 1919 to 7,500,000 in 1935 is deﬁnite indication/of its suc- cess. Co-operative business, meas-‘‘ :'ured in terms of similar price levels, -has more than doubled since 1919. ‘ "England’s widely heralded eco- ’ V nomic‘ recovery has been due to so- cial security legislatiuonpassed twen- \ty-ﬁve years ago and the increase of -purchasing power made possible by the expansion of consumers’ co-op- eratives which have become Britain’s biggest business," declared Hon. A. T V, Alexander, Member of Parliament, in an interview at the Commodore Hotel Monday afternoon. “English co-operatives, which last year did .a total business of $1,101,- 000,000, not only provided lower prices to its 7,500,000 member-own- — ers, but. also paid back to its mem- bers more than $120,000,000 in sav- . ings. “In ‘the city of Sheffield, which I represent in Parliament,” said Mr. Alexander, “the National Government paid out $6,250,000 to the municipal government in one year for unem- ploymen-t relief. In the same year the local co-operative societies paid out to itsmembers thesame amount, $6,250,000. Had it not been for the co-operatives. the amount borrowed by the municipality would have been udoubled.” . _ 1 Sir Fred Hayward, president of the Co-operative Union of Great~Britain, who with Mr. ‘Alexander will repre- I sent Great Britain at the Institute‘ of . Paciﬁc Relationsconferenceat Yose- mite Park, pointed out that the sav- ings made to British consumers were not made at’ the expense of,.employ- ees of the cooperatives. “Wages of co-operative employees are from ten shillings to two pounds aweek high- er than those paid employees in the private distributive trade, Hours of work in the co-operatives average from 46"toe4_7 a week ‘as compared to a 52 to 60 hour week in private proﬁt industry. Two weeks with pay The “SPOKEN WORD” is the universal holiday in the co- operative movement, The coal mine owned by the Co-operative Wholesale Society is the only mine in Great Britain that gives its employees hol- idays with pay. At least 95 per cent of the co-operative workers are mem- ‘bers of trade unions, while less than 5 per cent of the employees of pri- vate distributors are members.” Referring to the threat of fascism. ‘in Europe, Mr. Alexander said, “The existence of great democratic organ- izations such as the Co-operative. movement is the greatest preventa- tive of dictatorship and is effective because it acts as a bulwark against the rise of fascism rather than asia punitive instrument to be used after dictatorship has come into power.” —Reprinted. Beauty in the Kingdoms “One of the most beautiful and ideally situated Kingdoms -of FA- THER DIVINE in the. United States” describes the Extension located at 1975 West Washington Boulevard, in Los Angeles. Situated atop a knoll, overlooking much of the broad expanse of Los Angeles, this Peace Mission was for- merly a well known rendezvous for‘ ..those seeking the Truth——known as the “Home of Truth.” Its spacious halls and large rooms have seen many illuminating discus- sions and friendly gatherings of peo- ple, bringing and giving inspiration, in the fellowship ‘of Christ. ' Today the Kindom of FATHER DIVINE occupies "this well known site and landmark and draws many visitors to the inspiring praise meet- ings held nightly, Surroundin the mansion itself are. the rarely beautiful grounds, gardens with pleasant vistas and the blue- gray outlines of the California moun- tains observable in the distance through the verdant foliage,’ There is a warmth, a feeling of homelike hospitality, a fellowship and a “club-like" spirit at this center of harmony an-d few Missions in the country" can match its agreeable charm. If you want optimism read these two words, backwards: devil; evil: Page 11 Campaign Highlight With the matter of a presidentVde- termined, the attitude of» the follow- ers of FATHER DIVINE in stand- ing ﬁrm on their refusal to vote for an administration they believed failed to incorporate the Principles of Jus- tice and Truth provides the real high- light of the 1936,, campaign. The campaign itself was a disap- pointment. The real issues were con- ve-nicvntly deferred until a later day by both parties——and the inevitable postponed for at least a time. 0 When it is recalled by the politi- cians that the followers.of FATHER DIVINE, meaning those favorable to His ideals and principles of govern- ment, are scattered all over the na- tion to a ‘number unknown and of which there is no way of telling, the. action of the Peace Mission in waiv- ing their privilege of the ballot is a signiﬁcant incident in our national history—as events of the future will ’ undoubtedly prove. When it is considered, moreover, that undercover attempts were made ' in New York State to disfranchise the followers of FATHER’ DIVINE and deprive them of the right of reg- istration, with ‘neither of the majﬁr parties expressing themselves on.an incident as vital as this (that is, the major parties’ humanitarian instincts did not prompt them to rally to the support of FATHER DIVINE’S fol- lowers or to take any cognizance of the attempts to discourage their reg- istration) a little more ‘light may be seen. _ , g A ~ ’ Is it any wonder that the follow- ers of Righteousness were little dis- posed to support such regimes? It is the rather peculiar silence of the major parties and officials to- Ward the work and Principles of the ‘FATHER DIVINE Movement, rathe.r than an expected «open endorsement, that furnishes much of the cause for the present situation,_ and the lack of support which the nominally pro- gressivé Mr.‘ Roosevelt received from this group. The action of the FATHER DI- VINE followers in standing ﬂatly for Principle distinguishes one of the few -occasions Tn history when a group of people have had the courage to stand opposed to the domination and dictates of corrupt and powerful gov- , ernment; Li‘.

In‘ Los Angeles none of the local candidates have requested speciﬁcal-. ly FATHER DIVINE’S support and none have made complete and public acceptance of His Principles. There-. fore, ‘the Righteous Government De- , partment of Los .Angeles, under the chairmanship of Mr. John Roine, ad- vised the followers to refrain. from voting in the current election. Altho several local candidates seemed wor- thy of. support and are disposed to liberalism contrast to their re- actionary opponents,’ (notably in the fight‘ for District Attorney), their failure to seek FATHER DIVINE’S endorsement denied them the support of His followers. Moreover many 10- cal propositions on the ballot have engaged the attention of the Right- eous Government Department but in the present election no voting was done. The -present incumbent in the District Attorney’s ofﬁce, Mr. Buron Fitts, is said to have been willing if necessary to spend two million dol- Iars to insure his election, furnished obviously by his racketeering back- ers. The job of District Attorney pays $9000 a year. A militant campaign was con- ducted in the “Angel City” to prevent the re-election to Congress of Charles «Kramer, 13th District incumbent, a. notorious ' “red baiter” and tool "of privileged inter_ests~.—behind whom is said top lurk the shadow . of Mr. Hearst and the forces seeking to es- tablish American‘ fascism, Kramer is one of the most notorious reac- tionaries in Congress and the author of a vicious bill known as the anti- sedition bill, a law which would es- tablish criminal syndicalism on the national statute books of America. Kramer is compared by many with the “notorious” Representative The- mas Blanton of Texas, another well known red baiter, who recently was voted out of office amid the cheers of a large part of the public. Dr. Floydr J. Seaman, a well-known lib- eral and pastor -of the Grace Meth- odist Church, was drafted as a.‘ “write in” candidate to supplant Mr. Kra- ‘mer.

The great basis of prejudice is ignorance. Dr. Hubruer wrote many years ago that’ man is only a man when he practices celibacy. A specialist on social diseases, he said there is only one cure and that is celibacy. He said he did not know of one case where ills resulted from lead- ing a pure life, -and he taught his patients to read clean literature and avoid unclean conversation. -Mrs. Eddy was declared “insane” because she. taught purity as the only way to heaven. This doctrine brought such bitter opposition that she yielded to the pressure of the world and permitted an ideal mar- riage. only ONE has never compromised on any _side with the world's opin- ion. HE taught -HIS radical doctrine nineteen hundred years ago, and HE is teaching it today. ‘ FATHER DIVINE’S statement, “Why reincarnate, Why not trans- form?” brought a Christian Scien- .tist to FATHER two years ago, and she found her IDEAL.

The President in his campaign against the ruthless forces of big business, Wall Street and capitalism has won the approval and support of great numbers of the American peo- ple‘. Most Americans realize the vex- ing problems with which Mr. Roose- velt has been faced and also the staggering responsibilities imposed upon him in his oﬂice _of Chief Exec- utive, ‘ 4 -President Roosevelt has represented , the “greater” friend to liberalism and the people, in the crusade against the strangling dictation of “economic royalists” and the powerful interests of greed_ Although all Americans may not agree with him, he has be»- oome more or lessof a. symbol of the democratic _liberties and institutions of our nation and a bright ray of hope and ‘conﬁdence for their pres-l ervation . _ against the inﬂuences of « Fascism, plunder, and privilege. Mr. President, we look forward eagerly to the day when your policies will become broader, your attitude even more liberal in the interests of the people, and your Principles more thoroughly in accord with Righteous- ness, Justice, and ‘Truth and the reign of Christ in the halls of government. But we wish you well and every success as Chief Executive. If you will permit yourself , to be guided by the Voice Within and the Guidance of the Christ Principle we know you will be Divinely le-d in your course to point the way for the people out of the wil- derness. ’ With your victory goes a warning —a sober and solemn consideration. The events’ of the next few years" will transcend in magnitude and im- portance any which ever took place in the unfoldment of human history._ You will be tested and tried as never before. _ 4 In the ﬂush, of victory and with the mandate of the majority of our citizens, do not lose sight, Mr. Pres- ident, of the Presence -of Him who liveth within and the guiding spirit of _Tr‘uth, without which any success or lasting achievement is impossible, Do -not forget, Mr, President, that there is a Scientiﬁc Principle govern- ing all life. That Principle is GOD- Bcience—Truth, or whatever you choose to regard it. i Do not forget, Mr. President, your obligation to this Principle, your al- legiance to that ever-growing, army of God-like people who are looking to you as one of those inspired lead- ers to take the masses into the Day of Righteous Government-—tha't Prin- ciple and that Group to which you P owe all of your present success and well being.

When politicians, or dents, ‘interfere or impede the prog- ress of the people’s cause and the Reign of Christ, our allegiance and support ‘of these, ‘personalities and ﬁgures must cease.

Love-—the Greatest Thing in ‘ . Life The keynote of all civilization is love,’ not unlike the keystone of the indispensiafble arch that holds the whole structure intact. Many poets and‘philoso.phers have wri,tten about ‘love, but it is still undefined. The sun kisses the earth with its ex- hilarating rays and in response the earth reciprocates in a harmonious activity, which might correctly be ex- pressed in the music, of the spheres. even presi- ,Saturday, November 7th, 1933 It is something that attracts or ‘re- pels according to the conditions. of‘~ A manifestation. Induced by all that is good, this eternal verity (love) has always existed and is the cause of all phenomena, .“Love' is Divine —-a Divinity that shapes our end.” The band that holds the universe in ‘its entirety, the basic principle of automatic unity. In short, love is the mainspring of humanity, the great inspiration of all human enterprise, labors and sacrifice. It makes no difference whether it be the gardener in his I tireless "efforts to beautify his land- scape, or the artist whose love of art gives the magic touch to the painter’s brush. . It is love that gives. the musician that intense aspiration to climlb to 3 the heights of excellence, and it is love in his music that thrills our souls into ecstasy beyond measure, It is love that makes home and country. -Love -is the greatest thing in life. « _ , ISO love life, with all your heart, might, mind and strength and your neighbor as yourself, for he is -part and parcel of the same substance as yourself. Humanity Needs to “Relax” The world has reached a stage where all -human attempts to settle, the muddle of things have wound up in a blind alley. - , The government and the best minds are carrying on in the stall of set- ting things straight——«but if A the true‘ facts were admitted‘, they know the process is helpless. ‘i The inculcation of NEW .IDEA:S, » the TRUTH of Life and Science, must permeate and fill human men- talities ere there can be any last- ing change or an ideal state.

Although HE was not Personally Present, HE nevertheless was spiritually operating in the hearts of His Disciples, for His mighty Power was expressed, in their midst. “ The multitude was steadfast and unmovable, and persistent in their 'waiting. They knew, and they felt that GOD had heard their pleas, and would surely answer them, if they I" continued to be persistent in their devotion to HIM, and fain‘t not in their waiting. There were throngs‘ of visitors who‘ waited eagerly as patiently as t=he devoted Believers, but their waiting was not in vain. In the shank of the Evening, the LORD appeared, gratifying all of the hearts that had yearned for HIM, ,in His «Coming. ‘ V What a shout. took place when !FATHER"S Car rolled up‘ in front of the Kingdom door, and HE alight- ed from the Car. The ‘whole Audi-i torium, for a few brief moments, gave vent to her rejoicing, and_the ecstasy ‘was none less than the -“Joys of HEAVEN.” Although the -Meeting‘ was still in session, many of those whose hearts almost ached by reason of the LORD"S apparent ‘long , Personal Absence from them, acknowledged that they ‘could no longer endure the. lack of the *LORD’S PRESENCE, neither bear the void in their hearts, there- fore, they vacated their presence for a short duration, from the Audito- rium, and pressed their way into the Office, where many of the Follow- ers had already gathered, to behold the ‘Precious TABERNACLE of GOD. V ‘With great delight in having the privilege of enjoying these few mo- ments in the vPer.sonal Presence of the LORD, the children were dis- ‘missed, returning to the Auditorium, -‘or wheresoever they ‘chose to go, FATHER rejoined them later, both . in the Auditorium and in the Din- ing Room. In the ‘Auditorium, HE gave several brief, but significantly deep Messages. i As the Audience continued’ to re- quest the Presentation of FATHER to speak, FATHER did speak, but in -His Logical Way, HE broughtvto the attention of the multitude, when- soever they desired something, they must be willing to give something‘, and in giving, if they Will give their . best, the best will always come back to them. That is the Law of Com-- pensation. ‘FATHER invited the Visitors'to feel at home,- and to take part in our Services, if they so desired to do. Several persons responded, and the Little Talks, heaped full and running over with Wisdom by FA- THER, are herewith recorded. ' Later in the Evening, in the Din- ing ‘Room, at the Banquet . Table, FATHER delivered another exceed- ingly expedient MESSAGE," None can go wrong, if they Willfollow the Advice and the Teachings of CHRIST, NFATHER DIV-INE, the GIFT of LOVE, GOD’S Own GIFT .of HIMSELF to the world. We thank THEE BLESSED REDEEM-ER. -PEACE EVERYONE: -(“Peace FATHER DEAR!” came the enthusiastic outburst.) Here we all are, and there I AM: There I sit, I stand and here you stand, I AM still rec:ognizing the Brother- hoodof‘ man; Although it is Some- ,, . .41 ‘thing to be recognized by all‘ man- kind, I mustirecognize it MYSELF as an Individual, that others might conceive the idea concerning the mys- tery. When this becomesareal con- ception Universally, all humanity will realize the Words I have spoken: “Here you are, and there I AM: There I sit, and here you stand,” the transmission of GOD to the chil- dren of men, and man unified with HIM, that HE might be One with _them, changing ‘the nature and the characteristics of humanity, that they might be no longer partalkers of the nature of mortality, but that they might be Partakers of the Im- mortal Characteristics and Nature of your CREATOR, and bring the earth and the HEAVEN together. DESIRE MUST BE REOIPROCATED I have not arisen to speak at this particular juncture; as I looked and behold, I beheld many seeming strange faces, I desire to refrain from speaking Personally, as they are anxious to hear ME. Every good and sincere desire must be re- .ciprocated. If they are anxious to hear ME, I AM anxious to hear them. We desire to be the recipients of such blessings that our visiting friends are bringing, for if they be- lieve it is possible for something to come out of the Insignificant, we are POSITIVE that there is a pos- sibility of something good coming out of the significant among us. At. this time, I will refrain from speaking. I do not recall their names by person, but I will throw open the door for each and every‘ individual, the door of Opportunity, that I have. I will freely give to them as I have so freely given. I desire to hear from our visiting friends, especially Ministers of the Gospel, politicians and Speakers, for we are Inculcators of the POSI- ‘ TIVE regardless to, o-r from whence . it cometh, therefore, we desire to V _ ' hear it coming forth from the dif- ferent representatives.’ as Speakers 7'1. ._ 3 A , Page 18, and representatives of Religion, Politics and other expressions of Life, that we as. many, and yet as one, might be partakers of the_ iden- tical Blessings that are so freely given.

This Invitation is given to all visiting friends, especially to Teachers, Preachers, Ministers of the Gospel and Professionals from every angle expressible. You are welcome . to speak, if you move as I do, as I aforesaid, I move volitionally . . . I believe if we all will be govern- ed by :our highest intutition, I be- lieve we will move volitionally at times. For this cause, I wil.l re- frairf from speaking and wait pa- tiently for a moment to hear from someone of our visiting friends, and then and there, and on from that time, so long as they care to speak. I thank you. A Speaker came forth and in laudable terms, gave Praises to FA- THER, stating that this grand mo- ment is :only a sample of what is yet to be. “It has not appeared to you,” said he, “what you shall be like, when you consider a MOVE- ‘MENT that is touching not only millions of lives bu't when you stop for one moment and consider that people are being banded together that no clique, no gang, no nation could make, when you only stop for one moment, you will realize that this grand moment is only a sample of what we shall be like. I never in my life felt so happy as I feel this very moment. It is not because I am before a micro- phone itonight, but because -I am with plain, simple truthful people. It would only be a sample of vanity to think otherwise, never mind about .- talking. , The moment that we let down on selfishness, that moment.

On this occasion, he invited some friends to come along with him, to FA- THER -DIVINE’S to V the Meeting, to. enjoy the pleasure of being in FA-' THER"S Company. PEACE EVERYONE: (“Peace FATHER DEAR!” joy- fully responded the Assembly.) Here IAM again, as I always have been. I wish to convey a little proverb often rehearsed and often heard: “Give to the world the best you have, and the best will come back to you.” I would like to say to our visit- ing friends, those of whom have come to hear from ME: “Give !to the world the best you have, and the best will come back to you.” - But if you do not' give us some- thing good, I mean the best you have, you» cannot expect to get the best, for as the REPREjSENTA_TIVE_ :of RIGHTEOUSNESS, TRUTH and with the Spirit, of EQUITY; even in the world of ag- riculture, the seeds that are sown, they must be sown of its kind,‘ to reap the fruit of -such, a vine.

The Metropolis of the Far ‘West, San Francisco. Right now it is putting on its festive garb and the occasior, is -the opening of the upper road- elevation of the San Francisco-Oaip land Bay Bridge to automobile traf- fic. The lower roadway, which will carry interurban electric trolleys and heavy trucks, will not be ready for some time yet, hence this celebration gscheduled for the eleventh, twel-fth R and thirteenth of this month is mere- Iy a. little foretaste of what will come later when these WONDER- VVORKS OFT ALMIGHTY GOD, these greatest of all bridges, are com- pletely finished. Under separate co- ver I am sending you a sketch of what the panorama will be like when the exposition grounds, which is now being created in the middle of the- Bay, opens wide its gates for the millions who will come here for the celebration in 1939. We understand that New York City also invites the world in 19:39, so we shall have some keen competition.

Department Store Enlarges Market The recent opening of the new KQch’s Department Store Meat Mar- ket in the familiar Koch Building at 132 West 125th Street, between Len- ox and Seventh Avenues, marks the latest forward step taken by this progressive ‘ﬁrm in its remarkable expansion program. There will be found the most mod- refrigeration system keeping the delicatessen and rotis- serieproducts, the wide variety «of meats, an-d Koch’s old specialty of freshly killed chicken and turkey de- liciously fresh and tasty in their modern glass showcases; If you so desire, you may obtain delectable roasts and grills in the new rotis- serie, where a fat, jovial chef takes your choice cut of meat and barbe- cues it to a king's taste. When the writer interviewed Mr.» Jesse Harvey, an executive of this corporation, who has been the leader in the organizations remarkable growth and progress, Mr. Harvey revealed that he had been privileged to interview FATHER DIVINE at Faithful Mary’s Mission on 123rd Street recently. The business man left deeply im- pressed with the outstanding work FATHER has accomplished in Har- lem and also with His Personal sug- gestions and counsel. Mr." Harvey is certain thatthe enormous success en- fjoyed by this new department is due to the fact that the fundamental of the store’s policy.is to observe at all times the principles of RIGHTEOUS- NESS, JUSTICE and TRUTH. -Saturday, November 7th, 1936 Vocational Education V Increases A healthier trend toward more practical education is observed in the courses sele-cted by the majority of _students entering college during the last few years, as vocational courses are deﬁnitely on the upswing, just as liberal art courses are deﬁnitely de- clining in popularity. Heretofore a college education was valued by the gra-duate as much for the social background acquired‘ while in school and the advantageous con- tacts made as it was for the actual education itself, but now We ﬁnd the student looking more for employment in the shortest time possible after leaving school than for the social phases. — Practical vocational oourses have up to the present time been a vastly undeveloped source of potential "training-for-good-citizenship"i educa- tion media. Vocational training is a valuable adjunct to a well rounded cultural program, and no matter how well versed «one is in the “classics” or in the liberal arts a vocational course is necessary to fill in his cul- -tural background and give him the fundamental knowledge of what makes the world “tick.” ' Junior ~Dii)ision International Righteous Government New York, N.

She was a good child, but he was not a very good man; and one day when the little child came back from school, he had «put in Writing over the. bed, ‘God is n-ovwhere,’ for he did not believe in the good God, and he tried to make the little child believe the saline.

J. SCIENTIST DEFENDS RACIAL EQUALITY -Addressing the British Association for the Advancement of Science, Pro- fessor Fleure, the anthropologist, re- cently declared that there are no true Nordics, and even if there were, the Germans ’wouldn’t qualify because on- ly a very small portion resemble the tall, blue-eyed blonde type that marks the Nordic. The Nazis aspire to this type, but the majority are short faced, broad headed and rather stout. In fact, most members of the Ger- man family bear no resemblance whatever to the pure Aryan type as they describe it. Sir Cyril Fox, another distin- guished anthropologist, insisted that there is no such word as “race” in the vocabulary of science, There are only “ethnic groups,” or “peoples,” mixtures of strains long lost or blend- ed beyond recognition. As for a superior group, he declared, there is no scientiﬁc evidence of superior in- telligence in any European people. Unemployment in April was 13,- 216,000-. In April 1936 unemployment was at 9,649,000—a reduction of 27 percent. ' 1” What Have We Done Today?

VUNCLE SAM’S PRINTING BILL Many a business man examines. lwith dismay his printing bill but it is -a drop in the bucket compared with that of Uncle Sam. Figures disclosed by' the Public Printer, to a House committee showed the government ‘printing bill from June 30, 1933, to ‘December 31, 1935, to be approxi- mately $38,000,000. Despite the amount of congressional printing“ the Reco"i"d, bills, stationery, testi- mony before House and Senate com- mittees and other -documents—Con— gress is responsible for only 16 per cent of the total. Its bill for that period was but $6,500,000. The Post Office Department ranked second with $4,100,000 and the Department of Agriculture third with"$2,100,00Q. Page 24 The “sppxrm WORD” , DO BANKERS HOARD GOLD _ PEAJOE As I sit at my desk I "have be- fore me two very interesting pieces of literature. One is a book written by Mr. Andrea B. Nordskog, a well known financial authority, entitled “We Bankers.” ' The other is a ‘‘Bill’ entitled “The Righteous Government Act of 1936." In ‘answer to thelquestion “Do Reserve Banks Hoard Gold ,Notes‘."' Mr. Nordskog makes the following statement, “On December 31, 1932, the Federal Reserve Banks held gold and gold certificates in the sum of $2,8I10,'328,O00. In April 1933 Presi- dent Roosevelt issued an executive” order calling all tugold out of circu- lation. On January 31, 1934, the Federal Reserve Banks ‘had $3,513,884,0'00 in gold certificates (a mortgage on the treasury gold) about $700,000,- 000 more than when Roosevelt took office a. year prior. By June 30th, 1934 it jumped to $4,782,053,000, and December 31, 1934 their gold cer- tificate holdings were $5,124,347,000. On September 2, 1936 this figure had jumped ‘to an all—time high of $8,3-34,034,000, which is $5,500,000,- 000 more than as of December 31, 1932. With a ‘total Federal Reserve note circulation on ‘August 27, 1936 of $3,993,664,000 only $1,597,-165,000, or 40 percent of that sum_ is needed as gold-note backing, I leaving.$6,676,- 567,000 surplus gold certificate hold-. ings, or approximately 450 percent more than is provided for by law. That is enough surplus gold-note backing for $16,69.1,417,500 of brand new Federal Reserve notes, which would increase the ‘Federal Reserve note circulation over 400 percent for the benefit of the entire nation, if the reserve banks were being oper- ated for the good‘ of the people I rather than for the private gain of the international bankers in charge of the system. This kind of super- hoarding may possibly mean “driv- ing the money-changers out of the . temple,”g but we dolnot know.” ..\ 3 By JOHN IVIEEKNESS By the foregoing statement of Mr.’ Nordskog, which we believe is authentic, it is obvious that the Fed- eral Reserve Banksare not oper- ated in the interest of the people but are operated in the interest of. the them. V V The Constitution of the United States in articlel, section 8, clause 5, provides that Congress shall have the power to coin money and reg- ulate the value thereof and of for- eign coin. Under various banking acts Congress has delegated its pow- er‘ to coin money and regulate the value thereof to private individuals. private individuals who own » These privately owned banks are ‘holding in their vaults the vast sum of $16,69‘1,417,000 from circulation, thereby »restricting production and no doubt causing the present eco- nomic condition we now find our- selves in. The remedy for our present eco- nomic condition, it would seem, is to repeal all acts of Congress provid- ing for issue of circulating notes by so-called national banks, thiis taking from them the power to con-_ trol the‘ industries of our nation;' and; at the same time restore to, our government the sole right to issue money and regulate the value there- , of "in the interest of the people. » On October 1, 1931, thegmonetary goldholdings of 52 countries exclu- sive of, Russia, were eleven billion~ dollars. In five years the gold holdings of these same countries have increased to $21,-500,000,000. Due to .the reduction of the gold contents of the dollar and inﬂow of :gold, the money-issuing power of the United’ States is nearly ‘equal to "what the World-issuing power was in 1931. And yet no private individ- ual can borrow money in sufficient sums to ‘carry on business as was formerly done, which seems to prove that’ the Federal Reserve Banks are hoarding their gold holdings. The Federal Reserve Bank of New ,York,.Federal Reserve agent of the second Federal Reserve District in the Monthly Review October 1 issue, 1936,_ makes this statement: i “The 7 available Saturday, November 7th, 1936 potential expansion of currency and __ bank credit on the basis of existing _ gold reserves, has been greatly in-' creased.” _ - I. believe we all can readily see that what the people need to get relief is actual expansion of cur- rency and credit.‘ — The Institute of Economics of the .7 'Brookings Institution says: “The bulk of the gold reserve, though nominally a treasury asset, is not available for governmental poses; it- is the ‘property of" the reserve banks, which are. owned by the commercial’ member banks. In the last analysis it belongs to the depositors in the membeis banks of the Reserve System.” 3 “The only amounts which are di- rectly available for governmental use are: (_a) the balance in the gen- eral fund, which constitutes about one-fifth of the total amount held in that . fund, and (b) the exchange stabilization fund. These. two funds, or a total of $2,272,000 would be in the .. in this country, event of a restoration of the gold standard.” , ~ On .’Apri1'20, 1933, President Roose- velt 'made_ a formal announcement that temporary concession to the ‘neces- sities of the crisis.” ~ . On January 30, 1934, an act was passed authorizing the President to fix the ‘weight of the currency, -at his discretion, at any level‘ between 50 and 60 per cent of itslold gold value. ' ‘February 1, .1934, a fixed price of‘ $35 an ounce stabilized the gold contents of the dollar at 59 cents; The honorable Charles G. Dawes says: “If by anymeans, natural or ‘artificial, thehvalue of the standard~ ‘ is changed, you -affect in the same ratio the value of all outstanding contracts to pay in that standard.” “However, the amount of commo- dities at a given time ‘necessary to pay outstanding contracts ‘is deter- mined. by the sum of the standard a and of circulating substitutes for the standard. ’ » “The amount of checks has more effect on the value of the standard than the amount of the standardghas V I on the value of thechecks.” Governor Alfred M. Landon says: _‘._‘,_If money is spent We must ‘get e ‘I, 1 g pm“ ‘ “the suspension of the gold ;- standard was more than a mere’ .‘V{ ‘ validate ' Saturday, November-‘7th, A1936 -. it somehow, some way. If we spend .v_vhat we do not have today, we must pay the bill tomorrow. Every A’ "time we put off present obligations, we mortgage future opportunities. This is true whether itbe the in- dividual or the government.‘’’, . . On January 15, -1936, James Warburg, New York banker, speak- /ing before the Chicago Associations of Commerce, said: “We have nei- ther a currency nor a banking‘sys- tem worthy of the name.” The cost of ‘government in_\the four‘ years 1933—37, according to the treasurers estimate is $29,413,- 656,000. We know that all of this vast sump not raised in. the form of taxes is money borrowed from “the banks and "therefore is a mortgage" on our future opportunities. _ 1- The government having, by acts" _of Congress, delegated. its power to ‘ issue currency?‘ to the banks, must go to .the banks and mortgage our’ future in order‘ to secure._funi:1s_ to‘ buy food enough to merely exist in many instances. ' 1 The ‘‘-Bill,’’ the Righteous Govern- ment Act of 1936, was drawnin accordance with the’Righteo_us Gov- ernment‘Platforrn, and as a remedy for existing economic conditions. Enacted into law it would restore to .the government ~the.«-sole right to issue currency 4 and regulate the value uthereof; retire and invalidate allrout- "standing coinage, currency, notes or «debt claims; liquidate all debt, both for public‘ and private; abolish all forms of taxes, interest and other forms —-of possible confiscation; in- every‘ law the effect of which in any way interferes with full capacity production or the com- plete distribution of “consumer” goods, and to promote a constantly rising standard of living.~ ‘ C This would be accomplished ‘by the government issuelofcurrencyin the exact amount of goods produced; and this issue of currency, purchas- ing power, would be L delivered to eachindividual in exact ratio to his relation to the Whole number of peo— 2 ple in, the United States, except to ''‘a few who are now privileged to . be classed, as in the higher brackets.

WITH THE AKINGDOMS M BRILLIANT LONG BEACH BANQUET HELD ' (By Staff Correspondent) Long Beach,»Cal., Nov. 3.-,—A bril- liant Banquetwas held in Long Beach ion» Tuesday evening, 'October- 27th, by the followers of FATHER DI- VINE residing in the greater Los Angeles and Long Beach area, "at the spacious Moose Hall, Elm near Ana- 'heim,‘ inthe oce-an city. The Banquet and gala meeting was one of the brightest and successful ' held in Southern ‘California, A crowd estimated at between, 250 and 300 people attended to take part in’ the great praise meeting. |They ﬁlled nearly two1 Banquet tables in ~the basement of the lodge buildingas they listened to numerous testimonies and speeches by leading ﬁgures. together i vThe‘ Banquet brought many of FATHER DIVINE’S follow- ers all over Southern California and gave further evidence of the prog- ress of the Peace Mission movement ' in this section. Mr. Roy Owens,‘ well known in Southern California as an econornist and outstanding liberal, delivered a‘ most educational and pointed talk on the money question and the subject of Righteous Government. Mr, Owens’ money talks are providing the west- ern followers of FATHER DIVINE a liberal education in economics. Every Saturday evening Mr. Owens teaches a class: in Economics at the Peace Mission, 1975 West Washing- ton Boulevard, Los Angeles, for all who wish to avail themselves of this opportunity to verse themselves in, the"/problems of government, and his talks have brought much inspiration to ‘all seekers after Truth in the Los Angeles area. » ‘ Mr. John Roine, State Chairman of A the Righteous Government Depart- ment in California, also made an ad- dress which as usual was highly en- joyed. . /. . Perhaps the most outstanding talk of the evening was given by Attor- ney Hugh MacBeth, Vice Chairman of the California Righteous Govern- ment Department and most able local attorney. Mr. Mac_Beth stated that the next six months will see. vast changes in politics in Southern Cali- fornia with much of the prese-nticor- ruption uprooted.

Act Finding Wri-de Response The Righteous Government Act of 1936, termed by its author Roy G, Owens, economist, of Los Angeles, California as “A Bill in Obedience to Right-Use-Ness, Justice, Truth, Science, Mathematics and the Consti- tution of the United States,” is cre- ating Widesp-read interest everywhere and is providing economists and those who like to ﬁgure out ways and -means of adjusting the economic tan- gle with plenty of food for thought on these fall evenings. 7 Mr. Owens in whose mind the bill ﬁrst took form does not claim, that "such a bill might not-~ ultimately un- dergo some revisions but he does claim that the principles incorpo- rated in the proposal can furnish the only means by which the nation can rid itself of its shackling debt '='bur- ‘ den and liberate the people from their present economic servitude. Mr. Owens has received many expres- sions from various economists and invites comments or criticisms from any who have suggestions to make, Among those interested in the Righteous Government Act is Mr. Loeb who in 1933 was President Roos- evelt’s appointee in a thorough sur- vey of the productive capacity of the nation which was known as National Survey of Potential =-Product Capac-i ity. This survey revealed among other things that each person in the United ‘States would be the recip_ient of $4,375 a year if the wealth created "by the producing power ’-of the nation was scientiﬁcally distributed. Mr. Loeb who is at present engaged in the writing of a book dealing with many of the questions and issues raised by Mr. Owens’ bill has expressed himself as being deeply interestedein this unique money solution and stated that he wouldvstudy the bill,_ Revolutionary . and" controversial though the Righteous Government Act may be, it has stirred thinking economists everywhere. On a recent radio broadcast from Chicago, the University of Chicago Round Table program on which vital problems of interest are discussed, the Owens pro- posal Was debated. It is signiﬁcant to note further -that ,Pr~ofesssr Henryi Pratt The “sroxmz wont)" uating class this year at New, York University, Graduate Branch, Wash- ington Square, the ‘elements of the Owens bill with the -class discuss'in‘g' its phases. Mr. Owens has recently given sev- eral illuminating talks at the ‘South- ern California Peace Missions of FA- THER DIVINE in addition to the ~p-resentation of his bill before many groups and on the radio, While the Righteous Govermnent "Act of 1936 has not been deﬁnitely endorsed by FATHER DIVINE, Per- sonally, ‘as oﬂicially a part of ,'His Righteous Government Platform and . Principles, ‘it -is felt by many that the Owens Bill is in harmony with His tenets. H Declaring that the ﬁnancial change in our country and the liberation of the people must come about through the ﬁnancial leaders and overlords, Mr. Owens divulged that the act has been‘ sent‘ to bankers and ﬁnanciers all over the nation as Well as to high government oﬂicials. “The treasury of the United States is located on Wall Street,” declared Mr. Owens ‘\1%ce’ntly and until 1 the present unwieldy system of price and proﬁt, interest and" wages, bonds and mortgages, etc., is done away with, it is this economists firm belief that there will -be no relief for the people, Oldest Broadcasting Station ‘Celebrates 16th _ Anniversary The ﬁrst regular entertainment program by wireless was broadcast only sixteen years ago.

His eye is attracted by the bright garb of the Indian woman who is of- fering bits of pottery for sale, A \coin makes him possessor of an oddly- shaped jar or jug; when the puif of the train, a moment later, recalls him to his green plush seat, he carries’ ‘V with him in addition to the souvenir the. impression that 11% has made the acquaintance ofthe Pubelo Indian in his native home.

In one of these little rooms ranged side by side she keeps the possessions of her fami1y—the corn andchili strung up a-drying, the «bright blankets neatly piled at one side of the room, to serve later as beds for the family, the jars and other utensils ranged around the rough ﬁreplace; the extra garments hung from M the low rafters. The-se are -her possessions, truly; for the ‘ Pueblo woman is mistress of her own household. Dozens of these little homes are in a single large structure of sun-dried adobe brick. Time was when the rooms on the ground floor were ac- cessible only from above, when_fear of invasion from the nomadic tribes made it wise to climb by ladder to the roof and effect an entry from above, through a hole; but today we find ground floor entrances with or-. dinary door and window frames of wood.

But the cacique, \or chief medicine man, is strong in council and in many cases saves the "villagers the trouble of holding an election by choosing the officers him- self. In matters -pertaining to cere- l'monial—-and nearly ‘ everything does pertain to cevremonial—he is the em- bodiment of the law. All along the valley of the Rio Grande and its tributary streams are scattered these little Indian villages.- Some hold fewer than a hundred‘ souls, all told; Santo Domingo, the largest, has nearly a thousand inhab- itants. Farther west, the Zuni, and still farther, over'the' Arizona border, the Hopi, fall within the designation of “Pueblo Indians,” since by their life and occupations, they belong in the same stage of development. ‘ But these Pueblos are not, as one "might think from their common name, a single people. Many «differ- ient languages are spoken in these. terraced towns. You will ﬁnd other differences than those of language, The acequia or irrigation ditch dance in the early spring, when the water is ﬁrst turned into the ﬁelds, is the great ﬁesta of the Isletans; at Taos Pueblo relay races of mystical import express the communial life. The men of the west- ern pueblos Wear -a headband; those of the Rio Grande Valley a braid be- si-de ‘each ear, The pottery of the dif- 'ferent villages is readily distin- guished, The Hopi are the ‘principal t Page 27 weavers of cotton. Tesuque Pueblo furnishes the grotesque rain—gods fa- miliar in every -curio-shop. Though’ they have lived withiin trading dis- tance for centuries, they have not merged into one another, either'ra— cially or in their beliefs and practices. Each little group has clung fervently, piously. to its own ways. , We come thus upon their striking common characteristic—a conserva- tism so complete, so intense, so faithful as to make the Pueblo Indian seem like a single ﬁxed point in a world of change. The Pueblo Indian is industrious. but he resents new de- vices which will change his mode of labor. He is friendly, but his kindli- ness covers. an adamant will to ,re- main in his own ways. He is peace- able and gentle, but inﬂexible. The artist labors to show him to us in iceremonial or workaday garb; we catch the ﬂash of color and the rhythm of the dance; but further than this it is not easy to penetrate. l,Rock he seems, like the cliffs upon which he used to build for defense against the savage tribes_ 1 Average weekly ‘factory wages have undergone a notable advance, In March 1933 the average wage stood at $14.53. In May'1936 it had risen to $24.08—representing an advance of 66.percent. ‘ I GANDELMANS LEATHEIC GOODS Pockefbooks Umbrellas is E E E E E E E e .3 illlllllilllﬂlilFIEEII” -Trunks Lug’,-game " Novelties 1us's'r.

Page 28 The “SPOKEN WORD” Saturday, November 7th, 1936 \ On the News Front ‘6 FOLLOWING the effective strike of Mr. Hearst’s employees on the Seattle PqI (Post Intelligencer) and mass picketing by them and many sympathetic waterfront workers and other labor unions Mr. Hearst, to the expressed delight of all liberals, ceased publishing his paper and moved out -of Seattle. The Newspa- per Guild of which Heywood Broun is president, began publishing the. “Guild Daily,” and the Washington Commonwealth Federation under the constant’ ingenious, inspiration of Howard Costigan began to publish “The Commonwealth News” on Au- gust Twentieth. This makes two lib- eral or left-leaning publications to, take the place of Hearst’s tionary Post Intelligencer, reac- The Commonwealth News is tabloid in form and presents the liberal, labor viewpoint. It is a weekly publica- tion and carries a column by Upton Sinclair, one by Heywood Broun and iajweekly feature or column by How- ard Costigan, probably America’s best aerial commentator on rapidly shifting economic conditions. His ra—. dio. talks each evening at 6 p.m. over KIRO in Seattle is‘ the articulate voice of the People’s Front in the State of Washington. He and his Washington Commonwealth Federa- tion Production for Use movement are the spearhead of the united front movement in the Northwest, This movement is destined to be victorious in its crusade against the vested in- terests and the forces of re.action. They cannot be halted" until they ef- fect some fundamental changes in the economic scene in the great Wash- ington empire, and it is almost cer- tain that Mr. Costigan’s voice and inﬂuence will be feltpfar outside the State of Washington and the range of KIRO in fact we might expect his radio presence and production for use movement to sweep over the na- tional scene. v /0 “You act as a friend to me when You act \as an enemy to me when you tell my faults to others. The first’ act is constructive, he-lpful criticism, the latter is gossip which has no place in the CHRIST consciousness.” , ' Jam_e.5.i Menace of Fascism Traced Many American minds may be di- sturbed by the thought that protest meetings against American fascism are necessary, that there are 17 for- eign organizations and 119 American groups actively working in this country for a‘ fascist dictatorship. In Los Angeles recently a mass meeting of seven thousand anti-nazis packed the ‘Shrine Auditorium to hear an attack on “Hitlerism in America.”_ The meeting brought to- gether a united front of strange bedfellows among whom were the Mayor -of the city, Frank L. Shaw, representatives of labor, the church, the Hollywood arts, and youth. Ed- die " Cantor, radio -Comedian, ma-de a passionate plea for action, pledg- ing himself and his family to the cause «of democratic freedom. The mass meeting was sponsored by a new organization, the Holly- wood League Against Nazism, com- posed of leading figures in the film world. The meeting, however, was threatened by a cloud of fascist op- position from various organizations ‘calling themselves “America First,” representatives of the 'Silver Legion of America, the German-American Bund, the American White Guard, and the United .Nation-alivst-ic Council of Los Angeles, who issued warning to the Rev. L. M. Birkhead, famous Kansas City liberal, who made a forceful speech on the program. ‘The Silver iShirts of America re- cently opened offices in LosTAngeles with their creed preaching violence -and hate. While the ‘forces of fascism are much too divided, in the opinion of Rev. Birkhead, to be formidable, potentially they are a menace. The surprising trend of fascism and efforts to propagate this doc- trine in the U. S. will prove to be an awakening to many.

Crops Without Soil Scientists Amazing Forecast Rocks Agricultural World Los Angeles, Nov. 4th, 1936.-Soil- less farming, with bigger and bet- ter crops is ‘the amazing and al- most unbelievable prospect held out by science in this age of modern miracles! - ~ Arthur C. Pillsbury, Berkeley Cali- fornia scientist, gave illustrated lec- tureson the amazing subject recent- ’ly in Southern California, Bathtub gardens and backyard farms where families can raise a year’s supply of potatoes, ‘corn and tomatoes were predicted by the pioneer X-Ray motion-picture re- searchest and soil-less plant culture experimenter before a confounded audience, speaking under the auspices of the ‘Pacific Geographic Society. Pillsbury disclosed how he and Dr. Fred Gericke’ of the University of_ California have been producing un- believable fertile vegetables. Pillsbury calls his method—“soi1-_ less plant culture.” Over. a six-inch deep tanll of water we spread wire netting. Atop this wire W-e place a layer of ex- celsior. The potatoes, for example, are planted in this composition, and their roots, growing, finally reach the water. This is where scnnce enters. The water has been treat- ed with sixteen chemical elements, four of which are ‘incentive’ ma- terials not found in soil. “An acre of potatoes ordinarily -produces 104 bushels of vegetables. When our -soil-less method is per- fected to large-scale use, this same acre will grow— more than 2,000 bushels,’-’ Pillsbury declared. _ Future Americans will raise‘ whole I (Continued on page 10.).

INRO. 7 Bridgeport, ' Conn., City Officials‘ in Righteous Government Meeting—FATHER Present Significance of ‘Recognition of the Universal Brotherhoodof Man and the Realization of the Fatherhiood of GOD OUR _§'ATHER’S ‘MESSAGE AT THE SPECIAL MEETING 4 OF THE RIGHTEOUS GOVERNMENT FO- RUM, 468-470 BROAD STREET, , BRIDGEPORT, CONNECTICUT, FRIDAY EVENING, OCTOBERI 30, 1936 A.D.F.D. TIME: 9:35 P.M. I FATHER DIVINE. our MAJESTIC SAVIOUR continues to condescend to man. ’The'Inﬁnite Mercy -of GOD as expressed in this bene-ﬁcent act of extending the RIGHTEOUS GOV- ERNMENT FORUM by a Special Called Meeting in behalf of Mayor Jasper McLevy of Bridgeport, was but one more of the beautiful ex- pressions of .GOD in ‘consideration of man. i As the Mayor of Bridgeport ap- parently found it impossible to at- tend the regular Forum Night, the -Special Meeting on Friday was held to suit his convenience. of, and in cooperation with the Mayor, FATHER set aside His very Important Duties, and left “The Promised Land,” where HE Person- ally had been for several days, in prder that HE, might be present to receive the Mayor of the ~above- named City, at The RIGHTEOUS GOVERNMENT , particular Evening. There was a beautiful Gathering and a. Glorious occasion, and FA- THER of course was the Centerpof Attraction. Even the Mayor found such delight in the PRESENCE of the’, LORD that he was loath to go to fulﬁll .his other speaking; xnent. , A number of the members of the engage- In support ’ FORUM on that Mayor's Party, namely, Mrs. Sadie K. Griffin, Lady Alderman, Mr. Vin- Ness, connected with the Welfare, De-’ partment, Commissioner VValton of the Welfare Department and others arrived at the KINGDOM quite some time before the Mayor, who was out speakingjin behalf of his campaign. These persons were very congenial and quite at home. They partici- pated in the Meeting and apparently enjoyed every minute -of the time that they were with us. I While it was yet" early in the Eve- ning, and the Forum»was in progress in the Meeting Hall, FATHER Per- sonally was serving a delicious Ban- quet in the Dining Hall,‘ As the Diners ate their. sumptuous feast, FATHER arose to excuse Himself from the Table, and made HIS Ap- pearance in the Meeting Hall, where another burst of cheers was heard. FATHER extended a cordial Wel- come to the Mayor's Party and also to the Mayor, who walked in the door, just as -FATHER made men- " tion of him, and expressed our pleas- ure in welcoming, the Mayor of the City of Bridgeport to The RIGHT- EOUS GOVERNMENT FORUM. Aft- er this delightful little Talk by FA- THER, the Mayor was introduced to FATHER and the Assembly. He gave a very fine talk, which is recorded in p-art herewith. ' Both former Congressman Wm. S. Bennett, and Mr_ Ben Lazarus, of the W.P.A, Theatre Project, also Mr. Ben Davis, Jr., of the All People's‘ Party, Who accompanied one. of the » FATHER DIVINE" I S._ecretaries of ,f.»rc»m New York City to Bridgeport, I Page 4 The “SPOKEN worm" Tuesday, November 10th, 1936 gave interesting talks. Mr. Lazarus, who has Ia large vein for humor, said many witty things in a humorous way; however, the thoughts conveyed by him, did not lose their importance. In the conclusion of his remarks, HE called the Mayor’s attention to the Great Work of FATHER DIVINE, and to the definition of GOD, from a literary point of view, as given by Webster. He implied thatlno one coul-d fail to see that FATHER DI- VINE was GOD by His Works. He presented a copy of “The Spoken Word” to the Mayor, in which he re; quested FATHER’S Autograph, FATHER gave several beautiful MESSAGES during the course of the Evening, all of which are ‘recorded verbatim. Every Reader will feel that he or she cannot fail to read these important MESSAGES to learn what the LORD has to say to the people at this cycle of the Political Game, Hearken to the WISDOM of GOD, all ye people of the earth, as it is transmitted from the Fount of GOD’S OMNISCIENCE to the gener- ‘ations of people. We thank THEE FATHER. VDEAR, OUR INFINITE BLESSER, SAVIOUR and KING. =1: =1: ale / PEACE EVERYONE: (“Peace FATHER DEAR!” was the joyous response.) Here we all are again, as one means all, and all mean one. The way we come, the way we stand, the unity of Spir- it, «of Mind, of Aim and of Purpose, this is the purpose for which I came. C This_ Evening, we are leased to be here to Welcome the Mayor of our great City, of which—in~other words, whom we have invited from time to _ iti_l_ne..; to gthefact that it was -impossible for him *?to‘ be here. ‘last Evening,-helsent _M'E':~a message that it,\_..VW,0i11*11'C_1-‘_be. possible forhiln to be here tlIlis":‘Evel1ihg.

Of course I know the average per- son as a person is usually called up- on and introduced to the public. I believe there are those here who are acquainted with the different repre- sentatives of the Political World,— Speakers and Teachers of Religion, and other phases of our social and educational life. We are pleased to 'have all visiting friends. If there are any whom we do not knoW_ per- sonally, we are pleased to have them, and to have them to make themselves known. 1-: they do not, we would be pleased to have their friends to make them known by in—. troduction to this small Gatheiing, while yet, I believe you Will ﬁnd it as receptive as\ though it were a large Gathering as We u-sually have wheresoever I AM. I thank you. .(The Mayor's speech is recorded I herewith in part.) A TESTIMONY OF PRAISE FATHER DIVINE, and my dear friends: I am certainly very happy to have this opportunity of being with you this‘ occasion. I feel that it is indeed an honor to have this privilege of addressing‘ you, and I am sure it is an h‘on‘orv_to xhave FATHER-‘DIVINE come*€_a1l.‘;the way ~. , up from-lthe Big City, toibe with us tonight, and to Gra.ce,=[thi's Meeting ; with HIS Magnificent ..PRESEN'CE. I am_ happy,.__1, as A the Mayor of "Bridgjeport,- to conyey.i.}y.9,u ,a» Ines- sage"_on' “lBetter-.,Go?vernnient,” as I see-_i,t._ After all, politics is the science of .«Government, and our_Gov- an "ra*ce.'"iI? After jig all, .. a_ Dem0c‘r_acy_ such -as«‘ ours," we r all" have the" op- portunity to rise, and where the~ ‘Peace that is in the Nation as a whole; should at all times be pre- ~42 dominlanlt, there is no reason why we should-‘have corrupt Governments in this Country, if the people them- selves realize their own individual responsibilities. If the people at all times would .. stand for higher Ideals and a better type of, Government, there could be no corruption, Ithere could be no mal-feasance, or mis-f-easance or non-feasance in Peace. It is only because people become indifferent, because they sell their Souls for a mere pittance, and many times Elections are won and lost because people will sell their votes for a glass of beer, or a ham sandwich, or something «of that kind, , That is the‘ price that We pay in America for corrupt Government -and dishonesty. It is strange when people realize what Government means to them, that they will go out and sacriﬁce the future of their lives and little ones for just a glass of beer and a ham sandwich, and that is why all of my life, I have been interested in a building up higher ideals among the C people of -our City,‘ That is why I have always stood for “The Merit System,” so that all classes of peo- ple, irrespective of race, Religion or Color will have an equal opportunity in this great complex City of ours, and my friends, that is the only chance that there is for any of us to rise and to build a, better and a more humane system of" society. . This Nation that we are living in, is the richest Nation that the world has ever known. There is suﬁicient in ABUND-ANCE for all. There is no reason why a few should be ex- tremely rich, and the many should" be on the ‘verge of poverty, and if we can lay a social structure that can build the future, after awhile think what it will _mean to our fel- low-men. ’ V’ If we ours_,elves., are instrumental in ,who'l'_e,»or in, part, in buil«ding3,a cor- rupt Government, then we would hes- > ,itate,t1ong'~.:;be£qije it ,Wou_ld:_take the . _ 5 step ‘that would reduce the average , _ City tli,at**»has.-zrallenl, in the, debts. to“-,_:“1 ~ _ day. ..:-We _this_ greati-City,, etc.- '.,ernrnent..:.a_t‘- all ':Iti_i_ries Ho-ught ¢t’o “re-. fle_ct"T. the'.best thaft»;‘.g..i's. .in';.,__th’e -\.1i_l,,,l!I:Ilan down W-i.tl1;::.h9IiC1g;0£.;.d€;l°t,tah£1,.w.e'::;“ ' loaded down- with-»v-many thous,an’gs‘,,.ol'”:_'_ _ ._ *7‘-‘families-i,ln.. our City, who are going , ‘ without suﬁicient‘ to feed, cl»othe._ and . properly house them. ,_ The one thing that stood Pin ?the a ..,they gambled with Tuesday, November 10th, 1936 'way of‘ giving the proper ‘kind of re- lief, ‘was the ﬁnancial condition of, the -City“. The City was crushed with bond of debt, and ' why was it crushed? Because in other days, the people’s money, they wasted it where it was ‘unnecessary, so at the present mo- ment, you will find you have «got to ‘operate the money; you have got to pay the debts of days gone by; you ‘have got to take care of thousands of "needy people. There is no reason why such a condition should prevail in any part of this great Nation of ours,——unti1 they smoulder in ‘Peace,—men think more of the personal gain than they do for the rest of their fellow-men or mankind, and if there is any great- 4 . er contribution that I, or my party can make with the voters of our City and "State, to try and rectify and change to a small degree, with my faith, that all there is in politics, is personal gain and-an opportunity to ‘vote, it expresses of great-importance to the people; we can give. no other contribution than to change them and raise higher standards,‘ and bring about a state -of mind where men and Women can be raised by positions and command all by the aim and“ as- _‘ piration ‘of anyone to aspire ‘to pub- , lic office, then I feel we will have ' done our part. Now My friends, I am not going to tire you with a long speech tonight, because I do not believe it is nec- essary, but I just want to review ‘ this, I feel that if we would have the same high ideals towards the City, as some of our people have towards their Religion, this problem_,w,_ould be , _.so:l§fved-‘I-V? m1‘,ic_h‘-7‘ easier, - When: we look " up-aon‘;the'f sel-f—sacriﬁce that. ‘is being i madegbyii:-millions of peoplepwho are ‘devoted-‘ito the Church which they be-‘ lieve,‘-.—‘:i_n,’-ti. andﬁto . its .,hig_h". ideal, and ’ -3 the .;_“way'; theyi-._.--are ”devoted4 and the . sagrif;lce_§§they. make .for Vtliose, ideals, if; ,e'y.could..,have ‘that‘. sa,-rn"e devotion ' ian_cl g-safne”jidea1i-sm‘towardsthé VS-tate, » th.en\."this } problem i would * be ;solved . ‘ muchfgeasierthanﬁit‘ has been in the days.'f:gron.eby, and I want; to con- ‘ gra‘§u1ja.te FATHER iDI,VI'1\,l—E3 on the 1,ficen,_ti‘ef,l,;‘_e'c_t",_’HI,il has ’ been ‘mak- all parts ‘Z, of “the 5 -_'t_:o111_ntry j to ‘- rats, ,. high -:L’”t_he,idealism“.“that’_;,_ has, that”has' inspiredi allof you to high- er and greater things, so that you "are reaching up all the, time,_—-reach- “OF MEN , _ .

To‘ those who are Religious, .I speak Religiously; to those who are Politicians, I speak politically; to those who are educators, I speak in- telligently; to those who are chologists, I speak as a Psycholo- gist,——speaking in the language of men, reaching out to contact them; having the Bait that will satisfy the desire and will answer every request, and every problem of the children of men, therefore, the way'and the means of that which is commonly known as Religion, has been the way, and it has also been the means whereby millions have come to the recognition and the realization of good Government, by My Version, “A RIGHTEOUS GOVERNMENT.” For this cause, I have drawn a RIGHTEOUS GOVERNMENT PLATFORM from the Righteous Judgment of the true Believers of Mine, as a Foundation upon Which we all might stand, not only for the Government of this land, but for the Governments of all lands and coun- tries; ‘hence, our aspirations must needs be stressed in the POSITIVE direction, the way of making this land and country ‘a better place in which to live.

This was firstly accomplished by . this Great TRUTH and True CON- back in 1929, and in 1930, '31, and ’32, before I allowed the Universe to know of ME. It is ‘indeed wonderful! This Great CON- VERSION was going on, making Righteous the hearts, and minds or the children of men, that we might have a Foundation to build upon of RIGHTEOUSNE-SS, TRUTH and JUSTICE, in the hearts and minds of those who have sought RIGHT-A EOUSNESS through the way of Religion by this Great CONVER- SION of, which I AM sponsoring. Now isn’t that wonderful? (“Truly wonderful!” By this, millions and millions in this Country do recognize this ,RIGHT* EOUS GOVERNMENT PLATEOIRM Politically. If they are not alto- gether with ME Religiously and be- lievingly as My Immediate Follow- ers are,,——think of millions of them who will go with ME in whatsoever direction I may direct them. Isn’t that wonderful? For they know as well as your honored Speaker, the Mayor of our great City here, real- izes what this means to all mankind when men are converted from vice and "turn to RIGHT- EOUSNESIS, TRUTH and JUSTICE, and live self-respecting and self- respectable lives, and bring them- selves into subjection to RIGHT- EOUlSNES'S, TRUTH and JUSTICE. RIGHTEOUS GOVERNMENT A DIVINE STANDARD Millions realize it, therefore, as I was saying the other day to one of the Representatives of one of our major parties, “In 1940, there will be millions who will cooperate with ME Politically, if they do not Re- ligiously, for they know this is the only way”—in other ‘words, they know it is a Standard that I have lifted for all humanity——-a Standard that cannot be criticized, a standard that all mankind mu-st realize asthe affirmed the Throng.] , FUNDAMENTALL therefore, we shall have a RIGHTEOUS GOVERN- MENT. We can only have a RIGHT- EOU‘S GOVERNMENT by r being Righteous ourselves individually.‘ My Followers" are returning all stolen goods individually, collectively, yea, ’Universally. They are paying all old bills. They owe no man. Not one of My real Followers would owe a. man a penny. ‘That is what I AM talking about. In that, we will solve the economic problem that has- been confronting the millions, caus- ing the millions to undergo the hardships and trials which they have been undergoing. In that, I AM lift- - 'ing the Government of our great Country from under the depression it has been undergoing, by the 11,111- lions being converted into RIGHT- EOUSNESIS, -TRUTH and JUSTICE, and living independently even as I do. ' SERVl'NG_'I‘HE LORD" WITH GLADNESS Oh!‘ it is -a privilege to realize this from the beginning was not ‘merely that which was termed “Re- ligion” but "the «Spirit of RIGHT- EOUSNIEISS inculcated in the hearts and in the ‘lives, -the spirit of R I G H ‘T EOUSNESS ‘ transmitted through the Ages,‘ from the ‘prophets and through the seers and, the sages, coming down from the different Generations to this one, I came manifesting R I G -H T EOUSNESS, TRUTII-I and JU.ST‘I=ClE in the midst of the children of men, that we might have a RIGHTEOUS GIOV- ERNMENT in and under which to live. Then as I -aforesaid, the aspi- ration of each person should be to séekhigher ideals, and as our hon- ored ‘Speaker, the Mayor said, we find, and you all know My Follow- ers are inspired from every angle expressible enthusiastically more than ordinary people are. In wnatsoever direction the ‘Spirit , of y Aspiration and My Inspira- tion might direct, they will go whole- heartedly enthusiastically and will- ingly, as the ’Scripture said, GOD speaking through the mouth of -David: “Serve the LORD with glad- ness”. They will serve this country .-with gladness. They will serve their fellow—men with gladness. They will be honest. They will be competent. They will be true. They will do what I bid them to do, not only what I , tell them Personally, but they will . do what I bid them do», intuitively, » by inspiration. I will speak to them, a.nd they will be governed by their highest intuition, which twill be the ‘Intutor tutoring them, as the Tutor by Inspiration, transmitting .His Spirit and His Mind to them. GOD will be speaking in them. I ESTABLISHING A TRUE » v . SPIRITUAL CIVILIZATION For this cause, we are rejoicing to. present to the world a Standard of RIGHTEOUSNESS as exemplified , in My Followers, those who are true and faithful that others might copy after the Fashion I have shown them. I have qualified them morally. I have qualified them -spiritually and I AM qualifying them intellectually and politically that they might be Law-abiding Citizens—Law-making and self-respecting ‘Citizens. Now aren't you£all glad? (“So glad!” came back theasincere reply of the 'multitude.) -Aren’t you glad you have been lifted,—lifted from the ' ruts and mirks and mires of human superstition; liftedto the Standard of the future life that mankind will live? » Mankind will not after awhile be- back in the ruts and mirks and mires of human superstition as you have been, -under your Orthodoxy. Isn’t that wonderful? In this Civili- ‘zation, mankind should_realize it is «gross ignorance to be brutal, to ex- press brutality one for another. It,‘ is ignorance. It is ignorant to be prejudiced and to segregate. All of those things men‘ do for the lack of understanding, but when the.Light of True Spiritual Civilization advances, mankind will rise above those dis- criminatory practices and live in the unity of Spirit of Mind of Aim and . of Purpose, theniand there, they will~ M be successful and prosperous and I have VICTORY over all depressions, even as I do, and My Followers. ~ IN UNION THERE IS STRENGTH , “Where there is union, there is strength. Where there is division there is s‘trif.e.” There are lacks and wants, and limitations wheresoever you are divided one against,the oth- er, but when all mikincl come to-.

By every man hav- ing an opportunity, you will find there is something in mankind that would urge him, that would encour- age him to go on, and seek some- thing better.; That is the mystery, therefore, if he is not wealthy, give him an opportunity. . NO FOLLOWER oN_ WELFARE A Now give anyone of My Followers an opportunity to, earn just about Fifteen (15), Dollars a_ week, if no more than that, give him an oppor- tunity, I willdeclare inpa few years, he will be INDEIPIENDENT.

By so doing, they will not have to pay so much more -for .- the necessities of life than What they should pay.

FATHER IMPRESSED ‘ BY MAYOR'S SPEECH I do not believe it is,necessary,— I think the time is well expired. I started to say, I think I should rc- frain from speaking, as we have many other speakers here tonight, but I was much impressed with the Mayor’s speech, and his outlook on life,-—his “look-out” foruthe welfare of humanity. As a. humane worker, I believe if he will continue to live and ex-press it, the cooperation of ‘My Spirit and others, will be of some service to him,—-if not at the present, in the future. ‘Of course the time is well expired for our present election, nevertheless, as I have I often said, “Don’t kill the goose that laid the golden egg.” If the first egg did not hatch.

PEACE EVERYONE: (“Peace FATHER!” came the ready response of the people.) I would just like to say at this junc- ture, as the time seems to. bevswiftly I those who are lynched. » The “SPOKEN- won " passing, we would like to say we have with us «other Statesmen and Representatives of _ the Political World. We are pleased to have them with us, as well as other Speakers, no doubt, from the Religious World. We are always pleased to have our visiting friends. . I will refrain from speaking. Per- sonally at this time,——we will have Mr. Lamb to introduce the next Speaker. I WORTHWHILE LEGISLATION Mr, Lamb, Sect’y,-—introduced Con- gressman William S." Bennett, who spoke of how he came. to know of FATHER’S ANTI-LYNCHING BILL. In conrection therewith, he said: “I have _.racticed law forty-three years, I have read a good many Bills.——I have read "the Dyer Bill,’ ‘the Cos- tigan-Wagner Bill,’ and lots of other bills. I am very much opposed to lynching. When I read ‘FATHER DIVINE’S ANTI-LYNCHING BILL,’ I want to say, when I got down to Section 4, I was startled, and I said to myself, ‘Here it is! first Anti-‘Lynching Bill that is Con- stitutional. Other bills have had teeth here and there, but this is Con- stitutional and stands.’ ” The former Congressman. said, if he were elected to Congress, he would consider it a. great honor and doing a great service to introduce “The FATHER DWINEPS ANTI-LYNCH- ING BILL.” He further said: “FATHER DIVINE has drawnthe Bill exactly what everybody wantsﬁ’ Mr. Bennett said, he went through ‘the edge of three lynchings, “They are’ bad,” he said, “They are bad on the community. They put ill will in the community in place of Good Will, They make people beasts, and dis- grace and degrade the family of There is nothing can be said that is good about lynching. I have always been opposed to lynching. I did not think much about “The Costigan-Wagner Bill,” because it did not touch the spot.. I did not think any bill could bedrawn to touch the spot, but FA- THER DIVINE’S BILL .touc_hes the spot. ‘ ’ Mr. Bennett praised’ the Mayor of Bridgeport -on his honesty and good reputation. He said because Mayor McLevy was honest, people differ with, him politically, but theyivote for him because they know him to be honest. He stated that it was impossible to tell the whole truth in politics,_but that he enjoyed coming to FATHER DIVINES This is the ‘ Tuesday, November 10th, 1936 RIGHTEOU‘-S GOVERNMENT FO- 'RUMS,’.’ because thereat he could tell the Whole truth, ‘ ' " In reference to his own campaign and prospective election to the Ofﬁc of Congressman, he said: ‘ “I never talk politics in these Meetings. I never worry. If GOD wants me to go to Congress, I’ll go. I never worry, nothing can stop me. If GOD does not want me to go, I won’t go. All I will do is to say, “The Judgments of the LORD are true an-d righteous altogether." Mr. Bennett asked, “Why worry. Work is all right, but worry wears you out.” 7 Mr, Ben Davis Jr., of the Com- munist Party, spoke -of the coopera- tion between “The PEACE MISSION MOVEMENT" and “the Communist Party,” and how these groups have marched together down the Streets of New York, against lynching and against all of the different kinds of discriminations and segregation that “The FATHER DIVINE’S RIGHT- EOUS GOVERNMENT” condemns. Heitold of the help that FATHER and the PEACE MISSION had been to the Organization which he repre- sented, ai-rd how the Influence of FA- THER had made conditions better. Mr. Lamb at this time introduced I Mr. Lazarus, who spoke on how he came to FATHER, seeking assistance to put over a project in connectiorii with ‘unemployed professional Actors. He told -of the hospitality‘ he had re- ceived from FATHER, and of the ﬁne reception given him every‘ time he came -to the KINDOM. He told of his experience in connection with the different churches, ministers,vRabbis, synagogues, “The A Y’s”—-the different institutions, Settlements and so on, howvwhen he, or the Booking Agents . would go to present their problem to them, and to; arrange for a high-class Play, the ﬁrst thing that they would ask Was, “How much money arewe going to make with your show?” I gave- them 7 to understand I was not sellinga show, but when I went to FATHER DIVINE, HE did not ask me anything, about how much was in it, but instead he fed me like a little pig. Down there at “The KINGDOM” they do not ask you who youfare, or anythingat all. ,Every time I go there,‘ I stop eating for two ,-days.” ‘ ' Mr,','Lazarus' in‘ the presence of the ‘Mayor, this party-_ and others, gave a very concise, scientiﬁcand intelligent deﬁnition of GOD, from ‘Webster’s Dictionary. He stated it. was plain, to see and understand that FATHER was ‘,‘,G,OD—-the “Ii _ L Tuesday, November 10th, 1936 AM." ,If one could not accept the fact that FATHER DIVINE is the Only True and Living GOD fnom a Spiritual_ point, of view, it would be impossible for them to avoidtseeing the truth of the matter, and recog- nizing «GOD in the FLESH, when they considered the greatness of FA- THER DIVINE and beheld the won- drous Work of HIS OMNIPOTENT MIND. Mr. Lazarus called the Mayor’s at- tention to “The Spoken Word,” and kindly asked FATHER to place His Autograph therein, after which he presented the same to the Mayor, requesting him to drop FATHER a line, telling HIM how he enjoyed the little “Spoken Word.” =l< * * FATHER speaks at this juncture: PEACE EVERYONE: a (“Peace FATHER’ DEAR!” re- turned the Assembly joyously.) "I be- lieve the time has pretty well ex- pired, but if there are any other speakers among our visiting friends, We will remain until we ‘give them a chance to speak, and if there are any other visiting friends here who like to have a Word to say, we will be glad to hear from them. (Several of the Mayor’s Party, members of the Welfare Department accepted the invitation given by FA- THER to speak, also one of the‘Fol- lowers. All , praised . FATHER'S WORKS. At this juncture,‘ FATHER gave a. Final MES-SAGE, which con- cluded the Meeting on this occasion.)‘ PEACE EVERYO-N-E: ~ -(“Peace FATHER DEAR!” again responded the Assembly) Once again I rise, and yet I sit and stand. I: have not refrained from stressing .the Uniﬁcation of man and man, and -the transmission of GOD to the "chil- dren of men, that HE might be uni- ﬁed with them. . This Expression in actuality is performed for the.pur- pose of bringing about the Nature, the Life and the Characteristics of GOD on earth among mankind. When we uni-fy ourselves’ together for the one and self—same and onlypurpose, we bring, about ‘the outward expres- sion 'of the Universal Brother, that ,.which is commonly known as _.‘.‘Th_e Universal. Br._o'therho»od__,‘ of man,’ and the. ‘recognition- of the _F,ATHvER- HOOD of GOD." T . BODIES BEING ' V IWDEEMED. '. 5 , _ In"”referen‘cé' to’ what‘ the last The “SPOKEN worn)" Speaker said concerning our bodies being REDEEMED, suppose we would call your attention to the fact of birds and animals that have been killed. At times I have seen them as a certain sketch and a reflection of a portion of Natural History, in the exact likeness of the living—I mean,- of the living birds and animals al- though they are dead. “In that you die, you die unto sin: in that you live, you live unto GOD.” When your cor- ruptible minds shall have been puri- ﬁed, and all of that which will cause you to see corruption shall have been dispelled from your system c-omplete- ly, and you become to be a NEW Creature, you will be even as those animals of the different species are, and in the exact likeness of them that are cured; although they are dead, in the exact likeness of the liv- ing. ‘ Die from every mortal version, eve- ry human tendency, every " human fancy and every human pleasure. When all of that innate self and cor- ruptness shall have been purged from your system, you will not have that in you that will cause corruption to come for the body_— That is the mys- tery_ I AM speaking openly .and I stress it unselﬁshly and non-per‘s‘on- ‘ally,’ that others might recognize the signiﬁcance of what I AM stressing as being IMPERSONAL and ABSO- LUTELY UNIVERSAL——Impersonal and also Universal. Whatsoever one can express and manifest from this angle of expression, another can, by living thus accondingly. BECOME TO BE NEW CREATURES If you die to sin, to vice and to crime, and suffer all of the Adamic state of consciousness to be purged from your system as well as your mentality completely, you will be- -come to be a NEW Creature, in -reality, as said the Scripture. A NEW Creature: Just look at !the last Speaker,——a’s-I often say, as well as many others, who may have been, or would be no doubt, old creatures had it not been for the Spirit of G'OD’S PRESENCE as transmitted; but -they have become to be NEW Creatures in reality, by taking on the CHRIST’S Characteristics and putting off the Adamic stateof con- sciousness. As you heard the last Speaker say: “I can always smile." Youcan causer alien to smile. Page 9 If you have your hearts filled with love, a lion will express a purr even as a house-cat in the PRESENCE of this INFINITE LOVE. This has been a. personal experience of some. It is indeed wonderful! It may sound a little radical and unbelievable, but yet it is |true. Isn't that wonderful! Now die to self and selfishness; visualize the [PERFECT PICTURE, as said one of our honored Speak- ers,——-stress the height of your am- bition in your consideration by vis- ualizing. The 're-action of your con- centrated thought, focused on the PERFECT PICTURE, at the height’ of your ambition, will cause the PERFECT PICTURE to be your ex- pression, for that which you stress ' vividly, you will tend to materialize; that which you shall have visualized, you will tend to materialize and ' realize. .NO'1‘ TALKING ABOUT GOING TO HEAVEN We shall realize a RIGHTEOUS L GOVERNMENT; matters no-tlhown far I may go from the" Shore, My Point of view for consideration’ is this, that I AM stressing, “We SHALL HAVE A RIGHTEOUS GOVERNMENT on this Earth to LIVE.” We shall have it, and we shall express it, for we are not talk- ing about going to Heaven. You have lived in that superstition long enough. I have taken your eyes out of the skies, and I AM taking your intellectual minds out of the graves. I AM placing them on the FUN-DA- MENTAL to live here and now, that We might have a. RIGHTEOUS GOV- ERNMENT upon this Earth to live. Why should we go around in lacks and wants and limitations? We will not when RIGHTEOUSNESS, JUST- ICE and TRUTH shall have been recognized by all of us. When we learn as a people to live RIGHT- EOUSLY, GODLY and Sob-erly, the re-action of such an expression will be others’ portion, for others will catch it, for it is contagious. GOVERNMENT FOUNDED ON JEWISH RELIGION I think I had better stop. I. could talk here all night, but as I said, with all of the enthusiasm I may be exerting and exemplifying from a Religious point of view, all of the Religious Ecstasy from every ‘Reli- gious Movement upon the race of Page 10 the earth, I have brought» into MY- ‘SELF and to those of My Followers, but remember, with all of it, it is for the purpose of bringing about the RIGHTEOUSNESS. of all Reli- gions in Government. That is what it is for! That is what it is for, and by having all of the RIGHTEOUS- SNESS of all Religions, even before the Jewish Religion of which the Government of our present City and State are founded upon, this Gov- ernment of which it is founded, and the State Government founded upon the Jewish Religion partially, the law that was given by Moses, even‘ before that law came into existence, I AM seeking the sincerity of True ’ Religion from from ‘the ante-diluvian /days before‘ the" Foundation of this Religion that We commonly call “The Jewish Re‘-‘ ligio-n,” and all other Religions. 1 AM calling the ecstasy and the sin- cerity of every Religious person, and I AM harnessing their energy and their mentality, and I AM putting them to work for the"purp'os'e of bringing about HEAVEN on earth, »REL1'G'toN To MAKE PEOPLE BETTER ' _ That is all that the teaching of ‘all Religions was for. It never was from the beginning for the purpose of trying to” get the people to go to Heaven. It was to make them ‘better right down here. That is what it was for. Now isn’t that wonderful! It was to cause them to bring all of their Religious imaginations, every ,expression of their Rellgi-o-us ima- gination from ‘ the Mythological Heaven, and place it on things practical and live practical. By put- ting it into practice we will find it to be profitable and go'od-fo-r-some- thing instead of as it has‘ been good for nothing, now aren’t you glad. I believe the majority of the people can agree with ME, that by the Spirit of'MY PRESENCE, and the ancient days, - 4 by the recognition of it as the IN- FINETE, why millions can and will be ~ brought into subjection to RIGHTEOUSNESS, TRUTH JUSTICE, and recognize it.

This mission is one of the ﬁnest on,-the coast and is proving a popular gath- ering place for the followers of F-A- THER DIVINE. Shortly after the establishment of the Peace Mission at 1975 West Washington Boulevard, an effort was made by a committee composed of‘ leading property owners and residents of the immediate neighborhood to have the Peace Mission removed as a nuisance. The accompanying story has been made known to few but it is highly interesting. While the Mission at the Wash- ington Boulevard location is not lo- cated in what is ironically called a “restricted district,” the agitation on the part of the neighbors was brought about because of the fear that real estate values would decline. One evening prior to anot-her of the meet- ings being held by the neighbors, one. of their leaders and ‘spokesmen, a gentleman whose voice seemed to carry considerable weight with" his colleagues, took it upon himself‘ to visit the Mission and determine for himself just what service the Mission was performing. He was greeted with warmth and extended all the fa- cilities and conveniences of the new and modern Mission. At the Banquet Table,‘ the visitor enjoyed a. delicious meal of abundance which he later de- scribed as “the best meal he had ever enjoyed.” vArising from the. table, the visitor proffered one dollar rep- resenting the amount he considered the excellent meal to be worth. This was of course declined and the poli- cies of FATHER DIVINE in this re- gard deﬁned for his beneﬁt. Later, at the mass meeting called in protest of, the Mission activities, this gentleman confounded his asso- vvvv-vvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvv ciates by delivering what amounted to a distinct eulogy and tribute to the Peace Mission, To the conster- nation of the assembled neighbors he described the meal he had enjoyed, the reception he had been given and the services rendered by the King- dom. The meeting adjourned with further action left in abeyance for the time. * The Mission at 1975 West Wash- ington Boulevard is under the juris- diction of Sister Esther Domini-on and , all are cordially welcome in its pleas- ant surroundings. Accommodations are’ maintained for those who desire them with excellent meals, aforesaid described, ‘also available. Informal meetings are held nightly at the Peace Mission but particularly crowds gather on Friday, Saturday and Sun- day evenings at the Washington ad- ' dress. On Saturday evenings noted speakers are featured with Mr. Roy Gene Owens, economic authority, de- livering a series of educational talks. Monday evening is given over to the Righteous Government Forum with interesting discussions of. govern- gmental affairs in progress. On last Saturday evening Dr. Anderson, a lecturer -on the Pyramids entertained a large audience, tracing the Pyramid prophecies from September 16th, the date on which humanity was to enter a new era. ’ - ‘Other meetings in Los Angeles are ‘i also well attended, On Thursday eve- nings, the Righteous Government Fo- rum attracts a capacity crowd at 2600 Central Avenue, which Extension is under the -direction of Siste-r Thanks. Many ﬁgures prominent in local political life are frequent visit- ors with stirring addresses made on the subject «of Righteous Government. Speakers for various issues on t-he ballot presented recently the pros and cons of the propositions facing the voters on the November 3rd bal- lot, including the much-mooted chain store tax proposition and other vital considerations. A spokesman for Judge Harlan G. Palmer, candidate for the office of District Attorney, was present on a recent occasion out- lining the Hollywood publisher's‘ views — Page 11 and plans. Meetings are also held on week nights and Sundays at this address. At 1777 West 35th Place, lively meetings are a magnet drawing peo- ple from all over the city. Saturday and Sunday evenings, especially, wit- ness large meetings at this new Mis- sion with political speakers and vis- itors often in attendance. The Right- eous Government Forums held on Wednesday evenings are among the liveliest and most progressive held in the country, ' Last Tuesday evening, October 27th, most of the followers in and about the Los Angeles Extensions journeyed to Long Beach to attend a signal Banquet and gathering which was an -outstan-ding success. The Righteous Government De.part- ment recently decided to takevno further action in connection with the denial of a parade permit last Au- gust to the -Peace Mission, feeling that best interests would be served in this manner ' On the Southern California front the Righteous Government Program is marching steadily forward with ex- cellent progress being made in all di- rections. “Hyd_raulic Jack” Feature of iNew Speed Plane A new_ speed plane recently devel- oped by Commander Frank Hawks, ’the noted racing pilot, which embod- iies features new to modern airplane designing, is built to reach a top speed of 375 miles per hour, The plane, which is so radically ‘streamlined that not even a wind- shield projects from the fuselage, has a completely inclosed central cockpit ‘With small side windows and a hinged roof of saftey glass. When wide vis- ibility is needed for atake-off or land-? ing, the pilot operates a. hydraulic jack mechanism which raises his seat and slants the hinged roof upward to form a windshield. The seat and windshield then drop back into nor- mal position when the plane gets in the air. Fresh air is carried thru ‘an aluminum tube from the leading edge of a wing into the inclosed cab- in. The speed plane is equipped with retractable landing gear and lights, an automatic pilot mechanism, a two- way radio apparatus and it is driven by a 1,150 horsepower engine.

Page .12 Literary Digest Editors Con- founded! «New York, Nov. 3rd.——The editors of The Literary Digest were at a complete loss to explain the Roosevelt landslide and their wide margin «of failure to predict the presidential trend in the 1936 election. The huge lead given Roosevelt blasted the Digest’s vaunted reputa- tion for accuracy and placed the pub- lication in a most embarrassing spot. Election night celebrants and even the Hearst and other papers made special note of the Digest’s dilemma. Signs carried by street crowds poked fun at the Digest and its pre-election prognosticati-ons. ' ., The Literary Digest on the eve of election had given Landon 370 elec- toral votes and Roosevelt 160. The news weekly stoutly maintained that Landon would carry 33 states. Wilfred J. Funk, Editor of The Lit-* erary Digest, in an interview stated that he was unable to “explain away” the Digest’s m‘i-stake and that it would take some time and l-ots of pencils and paper to ﬁgure how it all happened, The Digest editor was amazed at the result. The Digest editors stated that 10,- 000,000 ballots had been -sent put to all classes all‘ over the country. Of returned Governor Landon took two of the forty-eight states. So with the 1936 election perished another myth—the reputation of The ‘Literary Digest to predict election trends. ‘ ' Independent ' Party Votes Negligible The independent parties whose can- didates ran in the 1936 presidential race ‘failed to attain any consequen- tial results. i l A On the ballot were the candidates, of the Union Party, the Communist party, the Socialist party, the Pro- hibition party, the Progressive party and others—none of which gained other thamnegligible recognition from the voters. I Lemke received but ‘a scant num- ber of votes "even sections" where -the was conceded some inﬂuence. \ The “SPOKEN wom)” 340 House Seats Won by Democrats ' New York, Nov. 6th.———The Roose- velt administration will enter the next Congress assured of an over- whelming Democratic majority in the house of representatives. . The landslide of ' election day brought «the Democratic _,majority in _ the house to an all-time high. Returns indicated that the Demo- crats have won 340 seats, which makes a total of :18 more than the 322 they won in 1934. Republicans appeared to have won but 85 seats. The returns marked the first time that Republican seating in the house has fallen below 100- since 1890, when it was 85. Senate Will Seat 74 New York, Nov. 6th.—-Matching Democratic success in attaining house seats in the recent national election, a record-breaking »U. -S. Se- nate majority was indicated by the returns. The Democratic senate member-' ship, which became tremendously one-sided in the Roosevelt landslide four years ago, will now mount to 74. Republican strength was cut to 18. Democrats also won many gover- norships.

A number of trips have been-rec,ently made to Buffalo, Cleveland, -Columbus and even over . the border to Toronto.

California, which was preponder- antly, Democratic, returning a major- ityiof 800,pO0 votes to the President over Landon, gave Roosevelt even more than it gave him in 1932 over Herbert Hoover, With sirens blowing andmarchers parading through the principal streets it was clear that Southern Califor- nians were most happy_ov_er the re- sult.

Tuesday, November 10th, 1936 ‘ The “SPOKEN WORD” \ The Rebels are still pounding at Madrid, the same as they have been doing for the past two months, but still the Capital remains uncaptured. And as the Fascist Insurgents bom- bard and shell Madrid with thou- sands upon thousands of pounds of ammunition, observers are wondering how it has been possible -for the Loyalists to hold out so long, When, according to their own Wireless dis- patches several Weeks ago, the Cap- ital was on the verge of starvation in regards to both food and ammu- nition and arms. ' However, when theaconditions now existing in Europe are considered, it isn’t necessary to draw a picture to surmise the secret of the Rebel‘s un- limited armament resources and the Loyalists’ “eleventh hour stand.” The Loyalists are now using guns and shells made of British steel with Russian trademarks. Meanwhile the Rebels are ﬁghting with cannons and armaments of Italian make and also some German war machinery, altho the manufacturers’ names havebeen {rubbed off of most of the armaments, for obvious reasons, And so it seems: that Spain may be the flame that will turn Europe, and possibly Asia, into a roaring, de- structive inferno. Mussolini is build- ing up his army to enormous propor- tions and is directing an armament programs, that is unprecedented in ‘ Italian History. Hitler is going ahead with his military. schedule and claims that he has a standing army of near- ly two million men ready for instan- taneous duty. In the meantime, Ger- many and Italy. have recently ‘held secret diplomat conferences and have, ho doubt, come to an “un-derstand- ing.” * , - The, ‘fBig.Brown Bear” of Soviet _ Russia doesn’tih_1;1e:t_he fat}; ;that; her army numbers around" twelve ’millions and it is common knowledge that she I has an air force that is tremendous.

In fact, England is said to be nearer war today" than at any other period in her entire history.’ And so as Belgium, and China, and Japan, and Hungary, and Greece, and Portugal, and nearly every “civilized” country in Europe and Asia join with other major countries, in the race for military might, the. rest of the —World is holding its ears in anticipation of a terriﬁc explosion! ’ It’s not pleasant to say so, but the person who can forecast anything but another horrible European war in the very, very near future is a blind optimist. But then, to stu- dents of the Bible, the “coming events” shouldn’t be anything to get excited about as everything that is, and will be, happening was all pro- phesied about 1900 years ago in“the , Book of \ Revelation, viz.: “. ,. . The first angel sounded, and there followed hail and ﬁre mingled with blood, and they were cast upon the earth: and the third part of trees was burnt up, and all green grass was burnt up . . . “And the sixth angel sounded and I heard a voice from the four horns of the golden altar which is before God, saying to the sixth angel which ‘had the trumpet, Loose the four an- gels which are bound in the great river Euphrates, “And the four angels were loos-ed which were prepared for an hour, and a -day, and a.mon.th, and a year, for to slay the third of men. ’ “And the number of the army of . the horsemen were two hundred thousand thousand: and I heard the number of them. “And thus I saw the horses in the vision, and them that sat on them, having bl-eastplates of ﬁre," and of. jacinth, -and hrimstone: and the heads of the horses were as the heads of ‘ lions; and out of their mouths issued ﬁre and smoke and brimstone. “By these three was the third part of men killed, by the fire, and the smoke, and by tJl8..l-!¥'1§.¥3§1J0{1‘9.: xvii-391} issued out of their mouths. Page 13 “For their power is in their mouth, and in their tails: for their tails were like unto serpents, and ‘had heads, and with them they do hurt . . .” For the beneﬁt of the younger readers it may be explained that the “hai1 and ﬁre mingled with blood” might be represented by bombs be- ing hurled from airplanes; and “the horses in the vision,” out of’ whose mouths “issued ﬁre and smoke and brimstone,” “can be represented by the new terrible armored tanks which are being featured by “well dressed” armies throughout the World. And so Europe marches“ on—to suicide! Sedition Bill Vigorously Denounced Representatives Charles Kramer of California, during the last term of Congress, proposed the Kramer "Sedition (National Criminal Syndi- calism) Bill which has aroused op- position in the Congressman’s own district—the 13th California District —and all over the nation. @3‘ Some ’ of the authorities on constitutional rights of the American people state: “The so-called Kramer Bill seeks to de- stroy free speech,” states Congress- man Celler of New York. “It is a strike-breaking measure, fathered by William Randolph 'Hearst, and designed to wreck the labor movement in this country,” states Congressman Marcantonio. “The Kramer Bill is an outright‘ attempt to ‘legalize Fascism in Amer- ica,” state all leaders of, advanced and progressive thought in the Unit- ed States. ' The un-American, Sedition Bill, sponsored by :Mr. Kramer, purports to be a protective measure, but is revealed as a mostdangerous piece of legislation. Reference to Con- gressional Records and a study of the bill, together with other knowl- edge available, makes it very clear to national leaders that this bill is directly aimed at the Constitutional ‘Rights of the people, and is, in oth- - er Words, an opening wedge for - Fascism.

Mankind has not consideredlRight- eousness, Justiee and Truth from a Scientific point of view. They have not seen It to be a Ptincijiie and Law of Development from a Prac- tical Light of understanding, but confined the same to Religion. But as you” have seen from your own experience of contact with one of MY followers, Mr. Daniel, Righteous- ness has been enacted as a Practi- cal point of expression, having come from a heart and mind enlightened in this New Day and Age as to the Reality of such a «Principle-. with all good wishes to you and those who may ‘be concerned, this leaves I-ME Well, Healthy, Joyful, Peaceful, Lively, Loving, Successful, Prosperous and Happy in Spirit, Body and Mind and in every organ, muscle, sihew, joint; limb, -vein and bone and even in every atom, fibre and cell of MY Bodily Form.

Where Are the Brilliant Can- didates of Yesterday Out of the late presidential cam-T” paign one fact stands out rather prominently. A . Where are the bri1liantrpersonali- ties and candidates «of other years? . Perhaps no year has seen such a dearth of lively political ﬁgures as this year of’ 1936. ‘Gone are many of the striking and dominating person- alities who used to enliven American political life. Many of the most vital and com- pelling personalities have left the scene. The Huey Longs, William. Jennings Bryans, Teddy Roosevelts, etc., seem peculiarly lacking in our present day. The Republicans were forced to pick on one of the least interesting candidates and personalities ever pre- sented by a major political party in choosing Mr. Landon. There were few others in the G.O,‘P. ranks whose personalities were any more compel- ling. . In a period conspicuous because of its lack of outstanding personalities, President‘ Roosevelt has stood out more than ever. In looking ‘lover the roster of con- gressman, senators, and political ﬁg- ures at present making. up our pub- lic scene, one is struck by the ab-‘ sence of eligible personalities and A men of strong public—appeal_ A Repudiati-on Notwithstanding the fact that the followers of FATHER DIVINE stayed away -from the polls because of their disapproval of the inequitable policies and principles of both major political parties-—the rest of» ‘the nation ex- pressed their voice last Tuesday. ‘ The balance of the people. registered what amounts to a. repudiation, to a. l ‘ stitution. ‘ amounts‘ to practical . certain extent, -of reactionary and big business political philosophy“ Those who did vote repudiated con- . . servatism. They registered in overwhelming fashiontheir ‘repudiation of the con-, servatism,an-d stagnant principles of the die-hard G.O.P. party . They showed that most Americans want none of the Republican conser- ivatism, and favor in contrast the more progressive social views held by the Democrats, Conservatism and reaction were re- pudiated convincingly on last Tues- ‘day! i The Republican party, as at pres- ent constituted with its antedated -views, was rendered virtually extinct. There was ‘after all this ray of hope in the results of Tuesday. America seems willing to adapt it- self to the changing times and an advanced social philosophy. Pennsyiviania Civil Rights Law Is Upheld Pittsburgh, Pa,, Nov. .7.——The Pennsylvania civil rights law passed in 1935 and signed by Governor Earle, was -declared constitutional here last week by the Quarter Ses- vsi-ons Court of Allegheny county. Judges Braham and Mocann presid- ing. The test of . the constitutionality came when John Psaras who operates V a restaurant here sought a new trial alfter being convicted of refusing a cup of coffee to a citizen Whose ex- pression was different from his own. In his motion for a new trial, ‘Psaras charged that the state civil rights; :law was unconstitutional, ﬁrst be- cause it deprived him of his property without due process of law. contrary to the 14th amendment of the Con- The court held that the -Pennsylvania law and all similar laws had been held to be constitﬁtion: al andcited numenous cases uphold- ing this view. It declared that laws under the police-power always inter- fere to a degree with property rights, but are not condemned on that ac- c o u n t un 1 es s this interference conﬁscation.” Tuesday, November 10th, 1930 _ i J Psaras also alleged that the law was unconstitutional because its "title was not inclusive enough. The court threw out thfs contention, stating that a title of an act need not be a gen- eral index to the contents but is suf- ﬁcient if it relates to one general sub- ject. Following a denial of the motion for a new trial, P-saras was brought up for a sentence and was given a suspended sentence and placed on probation for one year. Judge Bra- ham -stated that he would have ﬁned Psaras $50 if he could have done so under the law, but he could not con- scientiously impose a minimum ﬁne of $100 as speciﬁed by the law, ‘so he suspended the -sentence. Psaras must pay the costs of the court ac- tion which are estimated to be be- tween $75 and $100, The case originated January 23, ‘1936, when Walter Wilson and Ter- rance McManus were cleaning snow ‘off the streets of Pittsburgh, they went into the Psaras restaurant and ordered a cup of coffee each. Psaras, who was behind the counter, went back into the kitchen without serving the two men and called the man like himself back and told him the res- taurant did not serve “all” people. The two men left. In court Mc- Manus testified‘ to this, ,but Psaras ‘defended himself by saying that he ., had merely told McManus that the two men would have to occupy a booth near the kitchen if they wanted to be served. The jury heard both sides and «decided against Psaras. The Two Wars J The World war cost the United States Government more than 54 Billion Dollars!

A. D. F. D. 2:30 P. M. I ‘ ’ It is generally recognized among those who can discern spiritual trends, V’ and among many of the Politicians and A" / others, that the recent record-breaking vote and increased public interest in politics, is due to a great Mental and Spiritual Movement among the people. , This great Mental and Spiritual In- ﬂuence, Impersonal yet Personiﬁed, is known to millions more intimately as- sociated with it, to ‘be FATHER DIVINE. A ‘\ I For over two years FATHER has been advocating that every person not qualiﬁed to vote, should qualify him- self‘as soon as possible, especially if he be a Friend, Follower, Believer, Co‘- ‘worker or Participator of the\Peace jMission Movement, that he might stand eﬂectively for RIGHTEOUS- ; .: NESS, TRUTH and JUSTICE in GOVERNMENT. _The result of this Movement was seen in the Election just past. Although millions of His Followers and Friends did not vote, because none of the Political Parties Ofﬁcially endorsed the RIGHTEOUS GOVERNMENT PLATFORM or , FATHE'R’S Activities, still there was i’ the greatest vote in history. Speaking in the presence of thous- ii 9 ands of His Followers at‘His“New York City» Headquarters, Monday Afternoon, November 9th, FATHER called attention to this great event. Then Speaking of the Federal’ Theatre Project which had been seeking His Endorsement and Cooperation in one of its presentations, He Spoke of His Coming in the various ﬁelds of life, including the theatrical ﬁeld, for their Redemption. His Words of Spirit and t of Ii.ife,i of Wisdom, Knowledge and Understandirig beyond the fondest im- agination of men, were as follows :- , THANK YOU FATHER‘ , “PEACE EVERYONE! Here weﬂall THE BANQUET TABLE, 20 WEST - The “SPOKEN wom)" . PGOD Cornes to All Mankind in Every Field A A of Endeavor to Convert them to Righteousness are, and there I am, in one and all. I sit and stand, I remain the same. Although at times unseen, I shall be seen and heard as never before among men. Now aren’t you glad! While listening to the testimony of one of the last Speakers, I Thought of the returns we have from the investigation of the Political ﬁeld, and how thousands of people who are not My Personal Followers,—in other words who are not Followers of Me Personally,——refused to vote because of My request of you. Yet with all of the many refusing to vote at this present Election we ﬁnd that it has been and it was, the greatest election ever staged in this Country. Why is. it? It is because I have germ- inatedthe very atmosphere with the Spirit of Politics, and have made man- kind the Universe over, and especially in this Country, political-minded. NOT CONFINED TO ONE PLACE Therefore it is not Me Personally especially, neither will it necessarily be Me or Mine Organizationally, carry out My Plan and My Purpose. I will carry out My Plan and My Purpose if I ‘have to carry it out invisifbly through mental telepathy, Isn't that Wonderful! Lo, the Scripture is fulﬁlled this day in your .hearing, ‘I will put My Spirit in them and cause them to walk in My Stat- utes’,—knowing once and forever, GOD is not conﬁned nor bound to one place of expression but as GOD is Omnipres- ent He can and will function at places where He is apparently a'bsent. In His unfoldment He will Speak, and Act, and Think, and transmit the same, and others will catch it automatically and be the expressers of that WhIClh‘I have been Thinking. I need not raise My-Hands in Self- defence. There are millions ready to move, to speak and to act,——but acting in RIGHTEOUSNESS, TRUTH and JUSTICE according to My Instruc- tions. Isn’t that Wonderful! Then I Say as I Said, the returns through in.- vestigation show;--the, return "shows »~.~ .-v_’ .«v«- \- Page 17 ‘The Basis of Endorsement of W. P. A. Theatre Project is Clearly Pointed out by FATHER DIVINE in this Wonderful Message plainly,-—that there are many who re- fused to votegbecause of My Demand of you that you should not vote. It is indeed Wonderful! As the last Speaker said, there are thousands and thous- ands who are waiting for the establish- ment of this RIGHTEOUS GOVERN- MENT PLATFORM as drawn for the legalization of it. When it shall have _ been universally legalized and estab- lished, then majnkinid Shall build upon this Foundation, and they will not seek another for I have the Essence of Sal- vation. It is so fascinating it will at- tract others and draw them to it. The Magneticness of GO»D’S Inﬁniteness is in it. The Magnetic ‘Current of G;OD’S Inﬁniteness will transmit others and cause them to be partakers of it, for it is fascinating, it is magnetic, and it will attract and draw them to it becauseiitheihearer they get to it they ﬁnd themselves feeling harmonious con- ditions,—getti.ng near the place wherein ‘ they have been called to, this real Emancipation, the real Emancipation of GOD. “ ‘ COOPERATING WITH TRUE EVANGELISM Now I would like to Say in reference to the different programs for this week, especially I wish to stress for your consideration concerning the Demon- stration in connection‘ with the W .P.A. f Project. It is merely, our privilege and our desire to cooperate with any person or persons where we can, so long as they are seeking something to and for the common good of mankind, especi- ally if it is not in violation to true Evangelism." We are willing to co- operate with them even though we do not participate with them. We are willing to cooperate with them accord- to My Plan and Purpose, as One to lend a helping Hand to all mankinr‘. .. wheresoever I can, whensoever it can -‘be extended Evangelically.

This is not to be looked upon as our Demonstration, neither are we imme- diate partakers in this Demonstration, but as an endorsement of it to a certain degree, as it has been so arranged by My Endorsement that the prices are reduced according to the Evangelical prices, that mankind might find the Spirit and the Work of GOD among the children ’of men as a Blessing to them who are concerned. ‘Where you might go into one of those Demon- strations ‘and have to pay a dollar and a half, if by My -Cooperation and Bless- ing and Endorsement as far as giving My word is concer.ned you can go for‘ tweney-ﬁve cents, isn’t t.hat a blessing? (‘YES FATHE‘R’,—was the response from thousands.) ~ A FREE GIFT To THE ‘WORLD’ H Now that was what it was for. It was not because we have any part with it whatever saving as an Endorser of =RIGI~ITEoUsNESs, TRUTH and JUSTICE in all expressions and in all professions, and in all walks of life. This is the reason I endorsed it as far as that is concerned; and as far as.’ receivi.ng compensation, donations, or any commission Whatever in connec- tion with it, I forbid, any ‘Representa- tive, -C0—Worker, Follower, or Friend ‘ to receive a pennyas My Work as far as those things are concerned, is a. free gift to the world, gratis to mankind. I ‘have been offered different sums this year to just do certain things, but I refrained, and refused,” and declined the invitations and the offers that were I did it because I am’ a free gift to the world, gratisto mankind. If I cannot give. you something real, tangible and practical for your money I forbid ‘Myself to do anything like receiving compensation from another, or from you yourselves as individuals. Isn’t that wonderful! ; That is why mankind cannot under-" stand.‘ I close the door of every mortal opportunity, and every human scheme and plan made. by men for the purpose of com’pen'satioIf1‘or, ﬁnances. , I close all of ithese doors and let 'r‘I1ar1l‘<iiid'_see conclusively, GOD is Independent with- ,..m,'vy;.*,~.i.»,9) ., n;.,,_. _ , "dent with all His Omniscience.

By this all mankind can see, and WILL see eventually, that -GOD is Indepen- dent without any plans, customs, forms, fashions or schemes of men. Now isn’t that Wonderful! As _a free Gift to the world, ‘gratis to mankind I ‘Came, en- dorsing that which I can endorse justi- ﬁably and Evangelically, that the Spirit of My Presence through such an En- dorsement, and through transmitting Myself to those different enterprises might be a Blessing, and might be a Blessing to those who are concerned. con . A BLESSING TO MANKIND If I can get into any enterprise and cause the consumers ‘of such merchan- dise as may be sold in these different enterprises to be reduced, whereby the common people can‘ have such nec- essities of life as may be for sale in these different enterprises for from twenty-ﬁve to ﬁfty and seventy-ﬁve per cent less than what it would cost other- wise, I am willing to make _a sacriﬁce to that, end, that I might go in or en- dorse such things, that I mig.ht’be a Blessing to the children of men. I want you to stamp tliese Thoughts in your memory. I am the same today, yesterday,’ and forever.

Evangelism, that rriankind might not be embar- rassed,-§the most, rriodest’ person that might séé them. Upon this foiihdation I believe, if we stand as Cooperators in such a Project, we are not violators of our Religious conviction, "but to the contrary we are endorsers‘, because I have Declared, ‘I have as much right in the Political world as I have in the Church’. - NOT coNFIN,ED To RELICIUN _ V V ‘No’ ' to another phase of life through My concfescensibn I Cotne! I have as right in the Vaudeville shows as I have ‘in the Church. Now isn’t that ‘mosaagv, noeoiatog ibtii, 15% . Wonderful! Apparently another ex- pression, on another phase of life ap- parently to some degree, I might say to you, ‘I have as much right in the underworldas I .have in the political world’. To him who is pure all things are pure, but to those who are impure and imperfect, all things are imperfect to them. Therefore they cannotﬂgo where I can. It is indeed Wonderful! Why is it I have a rightpto go into all of these different phases of life,-—- not only go on these different phases of expressi-o.n but go into them? It is because through My Presence there it will bear extended convegsion of those that I am connected with, and those with whom .I come in contact.’ I came to convert the ‘Theatrical world as well as the Political world,\and as well as the Religious world. I Said a few days ago, I want the Public to know, I have not forsaken the Religious world, they need to be converted as well as you-. It is indeed Wonderful l- ‘ CONVERTING . ALL THE PEOPLE It is a Wonderful blessing to Know your mission; to know your calling as Disciples of JESUS, and ‘Go into all the world and preach the Gospel to - every creature’ ;_ -not onlylto all people but to every «CREATURE. ,lsn’t" that Wonderful! I shall Preach this" Gospel through you and others, to every crea- ture, language, tongue and people. I shall Preaeli this Gospel to the aiiimal . kingdom as well as to the man king- dom. Isn’t ‘that Wonderful! «Know your mission, and know your calling to Redeem all Life-substance and bring all things into subjec/tion to the Gi'eat U.ni- versal Mind Substance! ‘ Upon this Foundation if you will stand, with such a recognition with Me, you will be cooperating, and not only cooperating but you will be participa- . ting‘ in this great Conversion, to con. vert all nations, languages, tongues and people, a.nd,to convert every org*a11iza- tion, even the Holiness ‘Religions. The ‘Holiness’ people want to be converted too. They need a Blessing as well as you! It is indeed Wonderful! There are some ‘_Holiness’ people in this City need to be converted, that theymight. enjoy these Blessings we are enjoying, and rise abovelimitations, lacks, wants, and misunderstanding, and_ live in. the .

That is what it is all . ‘H about! I shall not be discouraged until "'1 shall .have converted every Religion, even the Holiness Religions, and brought them into the recognition of -GOD'S ACTUAL Presence, the Re- deemer and Saviour of all mankind." Then I Say, I have as much right to the underworld, and the world of crime, as 'I have with the Holiness ueligions, to convert them. I want to convert all of them, that they all might enjoy the Blessings ‘we are now. enjoying. Truly might have JESUS the CHRIST Said . in the Sonship Degree,——‘I came not to call the Righteous but ‘sinners, to re- pentence’. Therefore the world of , crime must recognize GO‘D’S Presence. He has not come among them through His condescension for a selﬁsh purpose, neither to participate with them, but to cooperate with them in bringing about \RI~‘GHTEOUSN~ESS, TRUTH and JUSTICE, that they all might be truly converted. THE CHURCHES , ALSO NEED GOD As the Speaker said a little while ago, the Churches with arms open are looking forward to Me. Naturally they must, because ‘That which the builders rejected has truly ‘become to be the head of the corner’. Isn’t that Wonder- ful! They say and they know, with- out Me they cannotgdo a thing. That -means without Me as far as I am » concerned, with or without this Bodily Form.’ They have to take Me as I L Am. Now isn’t that Wonderful, -- to realize what ‘CHRIST came for, to go among-those who were in the -most need -of Him, that He might "con- vert them. That was His Mission. Of course it is true, the Religions did need Him mostly. He went to them ﬁrstly, and! they rejected Him, but now they are turning to Him, He «shall gladly ‘and willingly convert them. . Isn’t"that Wonderful! . I 3" That is what is the matter! ‘I shall turn and -overturn’, Said I in the ‘ Spirit of My Mind by Prophecy, ‘until He comes to Whom it is due.’ Now isn’t that Wonderful! Because of this, through My condescensionll have truly ’ come unto you; SELF-DENIAL IS THE ESSENTIAL _ . Now I would like to’ Say in refer- ence to one of our Speakers’, Miss ' Merry Patience Humility, as she was speaking of the spirit of meekness, iand self—denial, and such expression, the great essential is that mankind each and every one of you, should deny yourselves ﬁrstly. You should‘ deny yourself ﬁrstly. If you deny yourself whole—heartedly, if you are quickened by the Spirit of My Pres- ence as I am Resurrected, your detest- able expressions that would be in you will not be reﬁectedwhen you are truly converted. If you do not deny yourself ﬁrstly, when you are quick- ened and converted by the Spirit. of My_Presenoe all of the detestable tendencies, and actions, and express- ions of violence and confusion, may rise in you the same as they*vvere _ ﬁrstly in your mentality. That is why you are in that spirit of violence although I may have quick- ened you, because you have not denied yourself ﬁrstly, and cleansed your mentality completely of all detestable, and selﬁsth ten(lencies_ until I got all. of those things out of you. So long as they are in you, if you are, quic'k— ened by the Spirit of My Presence you will act destructively apparently when the Spirit riseswithin you,‘ and especially when it rises externally in another in opposition‘ to you. Isn’t that something to consider? ‘If you take the Life and the Teach- ing of JESUS, and live it and express it scientiﬁcally, yea even mentally, you will ﬁnd the Resurrection of CHRIST within you will not be detrimental. But if you carry in your minds viol- ence, destructive thoughts and anta- gonism, ‘prejudices, hate and resent- ment, and Olll'l€1' detestable tendencies, when you are quickened and con- verted, and ‘brought into the high vibra- tions, the emotions of the Spirit. these preconceived ideas and opinions and other detestable tendenicies will ‘Wonk ‘violently anddestructively, and cause you to be as. though you are a mur- derer. I L We overcome and have overcome by RIGHTEOUSNESS, a.nd not by viol- ence. Isn’t that Wonderful! Cleans- ing yourselves of all ﬁlthiness of the flesh and spirit, cleansing your mental- vity completely of all of ‘those detest- able tendencies, preconceived ideas and -opinions, and all selﬁshness, com- pletely once and forever, when I quicken you GOD ONLY will ‘be there to be an Expresser. But if you have not been cleansed of those detest- able tendencies, fancies and pleasures, preconceived ideas and opinions of negation and destructiveness and viol- ence, when you are quickened those things will be quickened in you, and you will act destructively and violent- ly, because! they will act spontaneously and volitionally in you although you may think it is Me. THE GREAT ADMONITION DENY YOURSELF DENY YIOURSEJLF! You notice the different individuals who .have not denied themselves of self-exaltation, many of them will exalt themselves mentally and live in selﬁshness contin- ually, and desire to place themselves in an exalted state of expression that they might be exalted supremely. With such a state of a se'lﬁs'l/i mind as this established within you, ’when I quick- en you and your mentality you will act self—exaltingly and will come here to ‘interfere with Me Personally, Take t.hese Thoughts to consider- ation! Live in the recognition of My Presence! Deny yourselves whole- heartedly and completely, once and forever, and I will abundantly bless you. When I quicken you, when you are Resurrected in the vibrations of the highest ecstasy of the Spirit and! enthusiasm, you will not express your- V _ self exaltingly, neither will you ex- press yourself violently, nor conflict- ingly, n-or antagonistically to the Fundamentals I am standing for. There is the difference between that person who has not been mentally converted and that, person who ‘has been truly mentally converted before ‘he is Spiritually converted and Resur- rected. Now you notice some will get in the vibrations of the Spirit with preconceived ideas come and attempt to sit down in My Seat Personally, or one nextto Me Personally, showing the outward ex- pression of the preconceived ideas and opinions that are still in them,'though- I have quickened them. You are be- traying yourself! You are showing your selﬁshness! You are showing your self—exaltation! You are. show- ing your preconceived ideas and ‘opin- ions, your human fancies and your and opinions in~ them, and will not stop until they try ~ _to grab Me Personally, — or they will ‘shall Page 20 mortal tendencies that are detriment- al to you! Now isn’t that Wonderful! THE MEEK AND HUMBLE WAY You have declared and so have I, ‘-GOD ALONE shall REIGN’. Then if you have and I have, and if you endorse Me alone, why should you attempt to try to reign .in the place of Me or*Mine? ‘The humble child taste the Grace.’ If you will humble yourself you shall ‘be exalted. If you exalt yourself, you shall be abased. If you are not abased in one way, you will beabased in another. If I do not abase you Personally You will be abased automatically, by bringi.ng disaster upon you. Isn’t\,that Wonderful! " K There are those among you who are living in a preconceived state of ex- pression, mentally self-exalted, with ’ mortality manifested in you, and yet you desire to be quickened and awak- ened in the vibrations that you might have the ambition, in other words the determination, the zeal and courage, to do what you have pre-endeavored. Isn’t that Wonderful! ‘~Clea.nse your- selves of all ﬁlthiness of the ﬂesh and spirit, perfecting Holiness in the Fear of GOD.’ ‘He that exalteth himself shall be abased, and he that will humble himself shall be exalted’, De- clared the CHRIST. / GOD IS OF NO » \ PRIVATE INTERPRETATION I believe I have Said enough to stir _ I hope this les-v up your pure minds. son will be a Message to and for all mankind, that they all might be free "‘ from the disaster that comes by selﬁsh- ness and selﬁsh tendencies, but that they might live in My Presence throughout! all Eternity -by being truly converted to Me. Isn't this a Wo.nder- ful place to be? W.hen I unfold the ‘mystery, —— when it is made plain so you can see, — you can see the signiﬁcance of I Myself telling you ‘personally and collectively, not Speak- ing to you merely privately, but giving you your lesson, as Iiiarn of no private interpretation.

THANK YOU FATHER Wagner Housing Program: Remedy _for Sodlal E.vil~ In smne quarters tee Wagner bill-. is regarded as they ﬁrst important legislative step towand untangling the Tuesday, November 10th, 1936 difficult housing problem. It is ?re- garded as a. compromise -“between pub- lic and private enterprise. The bill would set up an independent federal agency’. the United states Housing Authority. 1 Primarily intended to promote the elimination andreplacement of slums.- : the measure would restrict all loans and grants to projects -for families in the low-income groups, Thus there would be little competition with pri- vate building in the small towns and rural areas. decentralizing the federal housing ac- tivities and putting as much of the responsibility as possible on state and local housing agencies. Ac- cording to an analysis by Senator Robert Wagner, Democrat of New York, author of the bill, it would not only stimulate low-cost housing con- structi-on and encourage -slum clear- ance,;but would increase employment by revival of the durable goods and building industries, as well as erase some of the slum blights in Amer- ican cities. ' '_ ' In arguing for favorable action on his ‘bill Senator Wagner pointed out that about 18,000,000 families in America, or 60 per cent of the na- tion, have incomes of not more than $1,000 a. year. This, he said, means that they can spend only $200 or $250 a year for re‘nt. But for the coun- try as a. »,whole, he pointed ‘out, at least $315 per year is necessary to provide a. family of ﬁve with three and one-half rooms of decent and san- itary quarters, at‘ an average of $7:50 a room per month. To imeet this_ difference, he thinks, there must be partial public ﬁnancial support to “remedy a. threatening social and economic evil.” - Art is the marvel of vision, Of knowing as Real the unseen; To then with inspired precision Embody the stuff of a dream. 4 . =1: :1: as To speak wisely may not Always be easyibut not to Speak ill requires only_' silence.“ ' -' are ah =1: e “I am not bound to win, but I am- bound to be true. to succeed, but I am bound to live‘ up to what light I ha.ye.”—Lincoln. “To have faithfully honorable arts, «V -softens , znannersii and keeps them free fnomsharshnessﬁe I The bill also aims at I am not bound . 3 Tuesday, November 10th, 1936- The “SPOKEN. woai)" THE CHANGEABLE MR. HEARST Mr. Hearst owns 29 newspapers in the Unite-d States and 10 magazines, l_—i5 several in Great Britain, in addition 1 to controlling a major motion pic- ture production company, a newsreel, and numerous other enterprises. It f is admitted that Mr. Hearst’s inﬂu- " ence' is broad and by many he is re- garded a Public Enemy No. 1. It is interesting, therefore, to note Mr. Hearst’s political record and at- titude toward leading issues over the course. of the years. A few acts of Mr. Hearst and some «of his ut- terances which give rise to conclu- sions as to his changeable nature. may be found among the following: Mr. Hearst recently branded Mr. Roosevelt as a Communist (to,_Hearst everybody is a Communist who doesn't agree with Hearst.) Mr. Hearst said: ' “Furthermuore, Mr, Roosevelt com- pelled the recognition of the bloody -dictatorship of Stalin in Moscow—- a dictatorship ‘born in riot and rev- olution, and sustained by murder and plunder . . .” . * In conﬂict with this statement, Mr. .I-Iearst,was for ﬁfteen years our out- standing advocate of Russian recog- nition an-d when President Roosevelt ﬁnally recognized Russia Hearst applauded. In an editorial in the New York American, November 22, 1933, the Sage of San Simeon‘con- gratulated the ‘President in these words: “On the initiative of President Roosevelt, the United States and Russia have at last resumed normal relations on terms that are entirely honorable, mutually advantageous and in harmony with ‘a happy tra- dition of friendship.’ “. . . As the Hearst newspapersin their‘ long advocacy of the restora- tion of friendly. relations with Rus- sia.‘ have repeatedly): point,ed_~».,Qut, ‘ friendly political relations proirfote trade relations, and trade relations, when maintained on a, fair basis, pro- mote friendly political relations.” _Can'this be. the same Mr. Hearst speaking who today is labeling every A proposal and progressive social Step as-.»_‘a— -fmohstrous- » importation from 'i'e’d. ~lRu_s_sia?j ‘Yes, it is; By THE SIDEDINER In a recent editorial attack «on Roosevelt, Hearst said, “I am not a shifty, prevaricating politician.” Part of Mr. Hearst’s statement is at least true. Mr. Hearst’s consistent ‘record of political defeats proves that he is no politician. But a look at Hearst’s Russian policy and most of his policies, dem- onstrates that “shifty” and “prevar- icating” «ﬁt him like a glove. An examination of the ﬁles of the Hearst press will ‘show that from the time of the Bolshevik revolution "until the time, as reported to us, Hearst signed a contract in 1934 with the German Propaganda Depart- .ment to supply the Nazi press with his news service at one million marks ($400,000) a year, he had constantly advocated Russo-Ameri- can friendship, The pro-Soviet campaign of Mr. Hearst, according to the records, opened with a signed editorial writ- ten from his hotel in Palm Beach on February 39, 1918. He referred to the Bolsheviks at that time as “rep- resentatives «of the most dem‘ocratic Government in Europe . . . the truest /democracy in the world today” and proceeded to propose their recogni- tion. This sentiment can be found in The New York American of March 1, 1918. On_ March 11th, 1918, the New York American even condemned the “burgeoisie” in Russia for «opposing « the Bolsheviks and referred to Lenin as a leader “whose patriotism no in- tellectual man in Europe ever chal- lenged.” , It was late in 1923 that Mr. Hearst sent an unofficial Congressional com- mission to Russia at his expense to stir up favorable opinion for recog- nition, The commission was made up of Senator Ladd, a Non-Partisan ~ Leaguer; Senator King,’ a. ‘conserva- tive -Democrat; Congressman Frear, described by Hearst as the “right hand man of Senator La Follette,” and Albert A, Johnson. Those who, care‘ to examine the New York American of January 13th, ,_,1924, ‘win and the full text oi: the conirnissionis report", advocating re- sumption of trade with Russia. Some Page 321 of the glaring headlines on the front page were: “Hearst.Russian Mission Issues Formal Report . . . Unani- mously Urges American Trade Rela- tions With Soviet Republic and Tells of Russia's Great Progress Observed During Tour.” One paragraph in_ the report, put in bold face by the Hearst editors, is especially interesting in view of the “horror stories” Hearst has been _ printing about Russia since, as it. is reported, he signed his contract with Hitler. Hearst’s commission said—- “In passing, it is not improper to remark that many foolish, stupid and inaccurate stories appear in Ameri- can and European newspapers, with reference to conditions in. Russia. In- deed, many of these emanations are absolutely false, and seem to have been coined by persons to whom ve- , racity is an utter stranger, and men- dacity a pre-eminent qualiﬁcation” It may be suspected that the last paragraph ab-ove quoted furnishes a most accurate description of the pre- varicating Mr. Hearst, One of the leading organs in Amer- ica explains Mr. Hearst’s bewildering philosophy about as follows: “The clue to Hearst’s inconsisten- cies is -Hearst’s pocketbook. If Hearst’s Russian doctrines are to be understood, three facts must i be kept in mind: ( 1) A great owner of gold, copper and silver mines, Hearst‘ hoped by his friendly attitude to obtain mining concessions in Russia. (2) Hearst has had friendly rela- tions with the German Government, since 1895, was pro’-German -during the war. Germany was friendly to ‘Russia until Hitler came into power. (3) Anti-Russian propaganda is I-Iitler’s chief stock in trade, and Hearst has joined in the anti-Russian chorus since, as reported,.he signed a contract to supply his news serv- ices to the German Propaganda ‘De- partment for $400,000. a, year. That is why Hearst, who used to wave the red ﬂag, now marches un- der the Hooked Cross of Nazi Ger- fnany.” _ _ ‘ “The Soviet Union has spoken and acted for Peace.

The world must rise to the level of HIS thought and idea. The world must see HIS life, HIS work, HIS devotion Ito the cause. The world must appreciate HIS love. The world must think upon the grandeur of HIS conception, the immensity of HIS plan and pur- pose, and the loftiness of HIS Idea . . of changing the world order of things and replacing it by GOD'S Kingdom on earth.- HIS plan was to confer on man the highest happi- ness——spiritual bliss . . and to so change the human order of things that all the earthly needs of every INDIVIDUAL, man, woman or child were fully satisfied. w That was HIS Idea———HIS one and only great Thought. nothing for HIMSELF ,nothing for HIS disciples, nothing for HIS coun- try.

Thought is power and greater and nobler and the more unselfish thought is, the greater is its pow- er. This thought of conferring the highest happiness on mankind, of making every INDIVIDUAL life full, happy and contented, of freeing him from cares, anxieties and uncertain- ties, freeing him from the degra- dation of thinking conltinually of the ‘self’ and spreading his life-energy on the attainment of selfish desires —this -Thought was the greatest, the noblest and the grandest——the high- This Thought, necessarily, was the great- est Power in the world of creation. In HIS case, it was not simplya flash of thought, high and noble. It was an Ideal, which had behind it the purest life, completely dedicated to the Ideal. Great as was the pow- er of this thought it got added strength from I-IIS‘life. It was not simply thought. It was HIS life. HE had staked his whole existence on it. It was HIS life’s mission. HE lived, moved and had HIS be- ing in it. The whole World went against HIM—society, community, the government of the land. Per- secu*tions—~severest perseciftions were heaped upon HIM. Nothing could deter ‘HIM from HIS purpose. HE has been pursuing it with a single- minded devotion, to the exclusion of everything else in the world. _.It was not simply pursuing an ideal ‘for idealls sake. Itlwas carry- ing out GOD’S plan and purpose, linking earth with Heaven, of bring- ing human lives in line with the moral governance of the universe". HIS mission is to implant GOD in every_ human heart, making the whole race GOD-conscious, GOD- loving so that in all that men did they also might carry out vGOD’S commands, further HIS plan and purpose and attain the highest bliss.

For the enlightenment of the lay- man, or those who perchance may not be faimiliariwith the exact meaning of this term, the expression “segrega- tion” may be deﬁned, in the sense in which it is employed, in this Way. » Segregation means the division, the classiﬁcation, or the “segregating” of individuals or peoples into certain groups. The term, in its broader sense, may be deﬁned as discrimina- tion,-\ differentiation, prejudice and distinction. Segregation, in its basic character, remains the arch enemy of our civ- ilization and progress. The most de- testable and miserable of character- istics, and the pet creation of the “other fellow” (more known as the ,.“Devil”), segregation has ‘probably been the cause of more ‘human -suffering" and misery than any other -single’ agency. V - It can: justly be deﬁned as the GREATEST SINGLE CAUSE of all our’ human ills. -tions have r been segregated, peoples have been segregated, individuals have been segregated, races have been segregated, groups have been segregated, organizations have been segregated, and society ingeneral in numberless forms has been segre- gated.

As long as.seg- regation, expressed in prejudice‘ and 2 it crimination, remains a part or ‘our _i‘f’ and=_habits,_ there can be no real By RAYMOND BRIGHT familiarly . Na- » progress on the part of the ‘human race. The evil of segregation does not af- fect merely one gnougi alone, as it .will be plain to see, albeit it has been concentrated against certain peoples particularly. The practice of segre- gation permeates into every sphere of” life and affects one and all alike. It is interesting to note that FATHER DIVINE has stated that the greatest segregation of all is not the one be- tween the 'so-called races but the di- vision existing between CAPITAL AND LABOR. E Which. brings us to the theme «of this treatise. Segregation or ‘prejudice has been , deﬁned in its essence and ﬁnal char- acter as a fundamental and basic hu- man characteristic. The quality ,,or characteristic of jealousy, hate, prej-. udice or segregation, being regarded as a basic characteristic, it is argued that a fundamental change in human character and human nature is es- sential if these traits and tendencies are ever to be eliminate-d. This thesis‘ is without doubt the most apt and logical explanation for the existence of prejudice in human beings, and the only likely hope «of its abolition is unquestionably a fun- damental change in human nature—- a spiritual and moral transformation of the individual, While those who hold -this view have probed the basic cause of seg- regation in attributing it generally, along with other detestable human characteristics, to the lack of moral values and the. decadence of; mortal consciousnessand thinking, there is a deeper and more underlying cause which will be discerned by an open- minded and frank look beneath the surface. It is ,true that until human . characteristics , are ., changed and a moral and spiritual transformation is brought about by the Spirit and Mind of Christ, we will have segregation and discrimination with us to a de- gree, but «one maybe permitted to. wonder what caused these qualities to -express themselves in ‘the begin- ning, What ‘basic or original cause first prompted the expression of these ‘n-eighbor free access? to the Page 23 tendencies and what inspired their outer existence? Segregation is a human trait like hate, jealousy, and anger. These , qualities in order to be stirred or in- spired must be impelled by some force, ‘some circumstance or event—— some basic cause. There must be, it would seem, a reason for prejudice to express itself, some outer condi- tion calling these qualities into ex- pression, some cause or objectat which this prejudice must be direct- ed. What was it that agitated and aroused the quality of prejudice, di- .rected at a certain group or thing, into action? ‘In seeking to find the answer for this question, one must proceed to the ' basic causes or considerations which the Scriptures and the entire prod- uct of human experience tell us have been the cause of all human misery and suffering, hate, war and jealousy. The Bible tells us, and modern in- terpretation corroborates, one partic- ular statement in which the reason for all of our diﬁiculties, including the‘ expression and practice -of segren gation, may be found'~if we are to take this statement as it is given to us. The Word says: “MONEY Is THE Roor OF ALL EVIL.” In more scientific and explicit lan- ‘guage, the quotation reads: E “THE LOVE OF MONEY IS THE 'Roo'r or ALL'EVIL.” Granted that wars, strife, group differences and racial inharmony have resulted because of the Truth of this statement let us proceed to another A important consideration. . ‘ In-the case of the group most per- secuted an-d discriminated against in America, let us recall a bit of his- tory, * . Why and for what purpose was this particular -group brought to Amer- ica many years ago? ' The answer is—economic consider- ations. ploitation, for the purpose of using them as “slaves,” and for the pur- pose of cheap labor. The economic tangle has existed ever since the be- ginning of man’s civilization, simply . because man would not permit this dance which ‘GOD has always put at his disposal- Misguided and wrong- \ Money. They were brought - -.,to,‘Ameri.ca for the purpose of ex- ‘a‘bun—» Page 24 A fully, man has wrested from his brother more than an adequate share of'the things placed for his enjoy- ment and use in the world, and felt the necessity of taking by force or advantage. something that his broth- er seemed to possess. This «distorted view of things, setting man at vari- ance with the Law of GOD and of Scientiﬁc Truth, led to much feel- ing, bitterness, prejudice and strife on the part of one group to another ——one people to another. With the advent of the aforemen- tioned group in America for economic purposes, there arose as an out- growthléof this exploitation, and belief of economic necessity, a feeling of prejudice and distinction toward those who were unfortunately,’ apparently, placed in this position of servitude. This psychological feeling and atti- tude was promulgated at base large- ly, if not entirely, because of eco- nomic differences and fancied exigen- cies. Throughout the course of the years it has been propagated and handed down and accepted as a part of the scheme of things——without any tangible reason ever being understood The “-SPOKEN WORD” or discovered for its justification oth- er than the one presented above. In certain‘ sections _of the country’, notably, this feeling has been per- petuated arid encouraged with in- ﬂamed, biased and unreasoning peo- ple stubbornly unwilling to seek the Truth or acquaint themselves with the fundamental reason or motivat- ing force for their attitude. Their attitude springs mostly from hered- itary and ancestral sources, Blindly the individual goes on, possessed of an inherent and inherited complex or prejudice against a certain group or groups of people, which he never stops to analyze and of which he is often unwittingly and unconsciously the servant, He is a slave to custom and ignorant -hereditary inﬂuences, inspired fundamentally by, economic considerations as pointed out. There is a great deal to the truth or stand that there can be no quar- rel where there is abundance, shared in love and understanding. If there are two dogs, for example, and one home, there is likely to be a quarrel. But if there are two dogs and two Tuesday, November 10th, 1936 bones, there is little occasion for dif- ference. Humanity is rapidly entering into the era of unparallelled abundance, wherein there will be two bones for two dogs—or in other words——enough for all without any occasion for quarreling. Science and the estab- lishment of the true Kingdom of Heaven on Earth under the jurisdic- tion of the Spirit and Mind of GOD, have brought about this reality which will obviate forever the economic con- siderations and illusion «of “se1f-pres- ervation” which has led to prejudice, group differences, strife and warfare. The day has come, once and for all, when no one group can again hope to proﬁt at the expense of an- other The time is surely at hand when no group can isolate themselves and their interests from those of others and hope to prosper or enjoy any lasting success. » As this is more and more under- stood—the heinous practices of prej-. udice and segregation will disappear fnom the earth forever.

I Tuesday, November 10th, 1936 The “SPOKEN wom)" , ANT LIFE AND0 SPAE'_C,IE,S ’ A species of ants was discovered in India a hundred years ago which collect quantities of grass .seed in the nest and after heavy rains bring the seed out of their underground granaries to’ dry in the sun. These are the harvester ants. The “work- ers” bring the seed into the nest, bite off the germinating part to pre- vent sprouting and store it away. In spite of this operation, many seeds do sprout, and so it happens that these ants are instrumental in the distribution of plants, and also by idropping seeds in their travels in search of food, their journeys sometimes covering long distances. ‘This species of ant is found in America also.‘ In southern states they make their nests on the sho-res of ‘lagoons and bayous. When the floods come and the nests are sub- merged, the workers cling together in a in diameter. This ball floats in the water, the ants shifting about so that very few are drowned, until they are able to make a landing. The harvester ants of Texas may often be seen on sunny days, re- moving from the nest, seeds that have sprouted so as to be unfit for food. These they carry to the sur- face and deposit about the edge of the cleared space surrounding their home. In the spring, many of these , seeds will spring up, and so an are or a complete‘circle of grass plants will be formed around the nest. Another species carry large quan- _ ‘ titles of leaves into the nest. These they use as fertilizer from which a fungus grows up, and this growth is the only food of these ants; hence they are called “mushroom grow- ’. Flowers and even orange .peel veloping.‘ the fungus, and these are r-egiuzlated by -means of air-shafts and -reopen at intervals. c ‘There is a species called “honey These insects gather nectar. » from flowers and from juices ex- “ ,cr.e;.ted by plan-t-lice, storing them in ‘r crops until they reach the nest, ball as much as eight inches ‘ hen‘ the streets are regu-rgitated, and fed to the, larvae. tribes only a portion of the mem- bers are capable of storing honey, and these remain in the nest ‘and are used as living -bottles for stor- ing nectar. Also in some species the honey-bearing ants make their homes in desert regions from, -Cen-. tral Mexico to Colorado, and for hundreds of years have been highly prized as sweetmeats by the natives. of those parts. The plant-lice mentioned above live on certain plants and feed on juices sucked from the leaves. Their 'ex- _ cretion is sweet and so abundant that it sometimes covers the leaves a and drips to the’ ground. The ants protect -the lice from their enemies and «even carry them about, and some confine the lice in little "sheds and corrals. ‘Sometimes the ants lap up the honeydew, but more frequent- ly they milk the -lice by gently stroking them with their antennae. The ants even rear plant-lice from the eggs; collecting the latter in the fall and storing them in the nests un-til hatched, when they are ‘taken out and -placed on a suitable plant. “Legionary ants” are found in tropical regions. Some have no home, but travel chiefly by night and camp thru the day in a shal- , low hole. As they cannot bear the direct light of the sun, they form over their ‘path, arches of earth held together by excretions from their mouths if unable to hide under grass or leaves. Sometimes also these ants construct an arch of their own bo- dies. ' They will enter ‘a house in search of food—-rats, lizards and other ver- min, and clear out all such victi-ms; . yet strangely-enough, they pass by milk, sugar and pastry, also salt meat ‘unless boiled. Sometimes this species camp in a tree and hang in clusters. Also they form chains“ to ‘bridge small brooks, and have been known to form a ladder from the ground to a branch of a tree. Still another variety of ants goes on hunting expeditions to other nests and brings back "captives which be- come their slaves. While these ants are not dependent on their slaves,‘ In some ~ Page 25 being able to dig, their nests, ga- ther food and rear the young them- selves, _there is a species which could not exist without its slaves. These are called the amazon ants; for they are very war-like‘: in attack, altho at home they sit about in idleness or pass the time‘ begging the slaves for food or cleaning themselves and polishing their armor. This species are so .much under the care of their slaves that the latter often prevent them from leaving the nest, and sometimes pick them up and carry them back to it when they have wandered away. When a colony moves to a new location, the slaves select the new site, prepare it and carry the amazons to their new home. From “Life Aniong the Ants” "by Vance Randolph. Cooperative Growtli Alarms ' the Interests ‘Washington, Non?’ 6th, 1936.—Re- cent‘ advices from the capitol state‘ that the growth of cooperatives is being regarded with alarm by the’ United ‘States Chamber of Commerce —~staunch supporter of big business interests. ‘ ‘ Viewing with alarm the rapid ex- pansion of cooperatives in the Unit- ed States the Chamber was report- ed as contemplating steps for the protection of private business en- terprise. It is held by the business body that the cooperative: presenta menace to private industry in their country. Speaking for the cooperatives a spokesman said, "We can produce better and cheaper goods for our- selves than private industry can give us.” . Meanwhile the cooperatives con- tinued to show widespread growth expanding to many countries.

K‘ 10:45 P.M. , Down through the wooded roads to the former Hasbrouck Manor, many visitors from the surrounding country-side‘ made their way, Satur- day Evening, October 24th." The" old familiar land-mark ' was much ‘ changed since" it had become one of the ‘immediate Extensions of the Kingdom. Like millions of bodies that have come under F‘ATHER’S trans- forming Power, and like all of the other Extensions in the Promised Land, it had been made new. Its walls shone through the century-old trees with new paint and screens. Two large sleeping porches had been built V in front. A modern equipped apart- ment had been made of the attic, making extra rooms out of unused space. The, most modern improve- ments had been installed without and‘, within, and last but not least a great Dining Room just completed, extend- ed on one side of the Kitchen. From‘ the ‘overflowing Dining Room <- on this -occasion, loud speakers broad- cast Songs and Speechesto the out- of-doors andall through other parts of the Building. It was the occasion of a RIGHTEOUS GOVERNMENT FORUM, and buses and cars from New York as well as nearby Exten- , sions in the Promised Land, ﬁlled the grounds, ‘There were many Speakers, includ- ing Mr. Ben Lazarus from New York, one of the Ofﬁcials of the W.P.A. Fed- eral Theatre Project. Mr_ Lazarus had come originally like so many others, seeking FATHER’Si_V,'Support for his project, but he had become ’ deeply interested through What he had seen and heard, and he spoke vividly from his growing recognition of FATHER. During theispeeches FATHER sat silent Personally,‘but thrilling every. heart with His Pr.es,ence,.an-d inspir- x . 5' r -.-,.—,"' '4ﬂt:VI'v*"-_\5vI:,*'.\:I .; " _' .1-.,w.,..,, ' .._. .. . ing the True and the Faithful to a more complete consecration and a greater Love and devotion. Finally He arose to Speak, Teaching .His Children a lesson from the pages of the ever-living history of RIGHT- EOUSNESS, TRUTH an-d JU-STICE ‘according to the Version of GOD Almighty, as follows:—- ‘ THANK YOU FATHER ‘_‘PEACE EVERYONE! GOOD HEALTH, "GOOD VV’ILL and a GOOD APPETITE, with GOOD ‘MA-NNERS and GOOD BEHAVIOUR, and a RIGHTEOUS GOVERNMENT. for all the‘ EARTH. You have often heard in Politics, the word commonly used as ‘Good Government,’ but to bring it down to the ﬁnal point and cause ~‘ it‘ to be according to the Gospel, as well, as Biblical otherwise, we have declared a RIGHTEOUS Government for‘ all mankind, for Righteousness ' shall go forth from _Judah and from Jerusalem, and Righteousness shall’ have dominion over the inhabitants of the Earth. /’But ﬁrstly mankind must. be truly converted from that ‘A-damic state of consciousness by the recognition and the realization of the Essence. of ‘Salvation, the Funda- V ‘mental Principle, being a Living Re- ality among “all humanity, RIGHTEOUSNESS OF GOD TRANSMITTED This hasbeen hid from Ages, al- though it did come ‘through the Pro- phets, the Seers and the «Sages, com- ing up until this present-time, that it might be made real on the material plane. The Righteousness of GOD as ' was in the beginning has been trans- i mit-ted through the different genera- tions to mankind _as they brought Righteousness to the surface - from ’ time to time, but they were instruct- ed that such Righteousness as brought- to the surface was not to be establish- t ed on Earth among mankind. . Suppose we would retrace — our thoughts back to the test of Lot -as a Righteous man. The Righteousness of GOD as exempliﬁed in him, itwas such that the Angels of GOD_through the condescension of them, came down’ to Lot through and by Abraham. While Abraham sat in his tent door waiting patiently for the Message to , come, the Message did come to him as though it was coming through three men, but we are told in modern times by our Biblical interpreters, that those men were Angels fnom Heaven There and then you under- stand, those who looked at that time V who were in the exact likeness of men, without any outward appear- ance of wings, the Scripture declares they were Angels, although they came in the likeness of men. They talked with Abraham and told him of things to come, and of how Right- eousness should be established in the Lan'd,—~Isn’t that Wonderful,——but’ how wickedness should be cut off from the inhabitants of the Earth. RIGHTEOUSNESS _ GOVERNMENT FOUNDATION Abraham beseeched these "three men diligently. He’beseeched."them that ’ they might have compassion‘ on So- dom and Gomorrah because of Lot and his family being there; Isn’t ‘that Wonderful! After-a-while these three men said they would spare the City if they coul-d ﬁnd just so many Right- eous persons in that City, Now !isn’t that Wonderful! I am Talking about the Foundation -of‘ Righteousness _for , government, and I am Talking about the City Government as well as any other Government. Now isn’t that Wonderful! It must needs be. some Righteousness found in a ‘ City»: for the City to be spared, as it ‘was’ ne- cessary in theidays of old. Through the condescension of the Angels’ with Love and ‘Mercy, they fore-warned «Sodom and Gomorrah "of the destruction that,would~ come if Righteousness could notbe found in that City sufficient to sustain it.-Now isn’t that Wonderful! There was,not enough Righteousness found; there, therefore when Lot beheld. two men entering into the City ,-latein the evening according to the ‘Scripture, he allowed those two men "to come in. ' / Tuesday, November 10th, 1936 They were the Angels of GOD through the c'6rIdescension of His Ma- «jesty, with Love and Mercy, and ..FI‘ender Compassion. He came to the children of men to Redeem them. In the likeness of them came He.’ Him, in the likeness of two men. Isn't that Wonderful! ' ' ANGELSHIP DEGREE ' OF EXPRESSION But what said the wicked men of the City? They sai-d, fsend these men out that we might speak to them’, or words to that effect. Lot, as one among thousands and thousands, that was a Righteous man,“ stayed in the Wicked City as though alone, stand- ing for RIGHTEOUSNESS, TRUTH and JUSTICE as he saw it, He at- tempted to exemplify it even as I do, and these men saw the Angels there in the likeness of men. They -did not take them to be Angels directly, be- cause they were ignorant of the mys- tery, as the inhabitants of the Earth are to-day. The inhabitants of the Earth to-day, they are ignorant of the mystery of the Angelship degree of expression coming through con- ‘ descension in the likeness of humani- ty. Therefore, who came, and wh-at -was the ‘ Angel, or what were the. Angels? The Angels were GOD ex- pressly manifested in the likeness of the children of men, by interpretation as being termed Angels. They said, ‘Suffer them to come out here; send them out here’, Lot, a Righteous man, said, ‘I have two daughters who have never kept company with men’, or words to that effect,—~‘these two daughters I will give you if ydu only spare these two ‘men’, or Angels, or whatsoever he called them, but they would not. Tl_le.Angels went to the door and threw out the Power and the Majesty of ..the Almighty, and caused them to go blind for the sight of His Presence. Isn't that Wonder- ful! ‘V TRUTH AND JUSTICE . TO BE ESTABLISHED ‘N. .-. Then I Say, for city government, 7 :’-for township government, for village government, and for all of our gov- Iiernments, we _ want RIGHTEOUS- NESS, TRUTH and JUSTICE to be ‘stablished, and “GOD in the name f the" Angels, in the likeness of other _anity, has truly brought RIGHT- Q s,-Nmss, TRUTH and JUSTICE, it might be exempliﬁed _amo'ng “. are /, ms “SPOKEN WORD?’ us. But as it was in those days, Lot was willing to, sacriﬁce the virtue of ‘his Holiness for the Redemption or for the sake of those Righteous men, for by inspiration his intuition told’ him that those men were nothing less than Angels, or the Son of GOD. Isn’t that Wonderful! “Spare' these two men,’ he said, for he was a Righteous man stand- ing for RIGHTEOUSNESS, TRUTH’ and JUSTICE in the wicked_.Cityl of corruption. »Isn’t that Wonderful! But they would not take heed, so Lot was requested by the Spirit to take his family and ﬂee from the City of destruction, ﬂee from the» City of corruption, ﬂee from the City of falsity and dishonesty, and, go out wheretvlth GOD by the Spiritirl the name of Angels would show him. Isn't that Wonderful! - Righteousness ha-d cropped up. It came to the surface in Lot and his family," to bring’ about RIGHTEOUS- NESS, TRUTH and JUSTICE to all humanity in that great City. But they would not permit it, therefore it was essential for Lot to take his family and ﬂee from the presence of the wicked, that GOD might deal with them according to His Plan and His Purpose. Do you not see the sig- niﬁcance of recognizing Righteous- ness? ’ Through the condescension of GOD in Mercy and Compassion He has truly brought this once again to the surface ""for your consideration, that all humanity might stop an-d take notice, yea take practical note of the Message GOD through His Condescension has brought to His People, ‘ V GOD CAME IN LOVE AND MERCY ' . RIGHTEOUSNESS, TRUTH and JUSTICE as I have exempliﬁed it, must be recognized by all humanity, and they must recognize it, as I have exempliﬁed the Fundamental as a Standard. Isn’t that Wonderful! Did, not the Prophet say, lift up a Stand- ard for My People‘? Did he not‘ say on one occasion, ‘Tell Israel her transgressions and the House of Ja- cob her sins’ ?— .Do you not see plainly, the mystery is now revealed? GOD in Love and Mercy came in the . most insigniﬁcant way of expression, in the most humiliated way of ex-, pression, in meekness and lowliness, ' that He might Speak to the children of men,_that they might get in reach \ Page 27 of Him. Now aren’t you glad! Had His Majesty, and Omniscience, Omni- potence an-d_Omniluscence come in the Majesty of His Glory, as man would have thought of Him, you would not have had the privilege to be where you are to~day, but through His Con- descension with Love and Mercy He came in the Meekness and Lowliness of the Spirit. \AS Said JESUS, ‘I am Meek and Lowly in Heart, and thou. shalt ﬁnd rest for thy soul.’ Do you not see the signiﬁcance of the Condescension of GOD to man? He Came, -coming in Meekness and Lowliness of ,Heart as a Sample and as an Example for one and for all, that those whom men had looked up- on as dnsigniﬁcant might have a chance to reach Him. The high and the mighty, the great and the small, all things must come to GOD or fall, Now aren’t you glad! VAt this Name every knee must bow! I Say at THIS Name every tongue must con- fess, that GOD through His Conde- scension to'come in the insigniﬁcant flesh, has All Dominion on this Planet Earth? Now aren’t you glad! POLITICIANS MUST BOW Then I Say the Politicians must BOW. They must recognize GOD’S Presence. Through His Condescen- sion to come in the Flesh to reach them ‘on the material plane where they stand, they must recognize Him. If they do not, they all shall fail, Oh it is -a privilege to realize the sig- niﬁcance of recognizing the ACTUAL PRESENCE of GOD among you. Through ‘Love and Mercy CHRIST came, through Love and Mercy the MASHIACH came. Oh it is indeed -VVonderful!—to realize it is not mat- ter but a Spirit; as the transmitted message through the broadcasting system, your radio receiving set i-f it is accurate and in accurate condition, it will get it. Now isn't that Won- derful! H ' ' Let us realize the signiﬁcance of dialation. It is your privilege to dial In on the identical Station and re- ceive the identical expression, the Message and the Majesty that GOD your FATHER is expressing.

Therefore the Children of Abraham would be blessed by the works of Faithful Abraham. ‘Abraham believed GOD, and it was accounted to him for Righteousness.’ Therefore Abraham being the found- \er of a Righteous Government, through transmission the‘ identical Spirit was transmitted to Moses, and Moses caught up the t-hought by ‘in- spiration, and by reincarnation, and by re-inheritance, and attempted to lead the Children of Israel out of bondage, from unrighteousness to Righteousness, through the Right- eous Spirit he‘ inherited. Isn’t that Wonderful! FREE FROM THE LAW OF DEATH From that identical transmitted Righteous Spirit that was in Abra- ham, through Moses and the others to us, we have founded the RIGHT- EOUS -GOVERNMENT PLATFORM, that all mankind might stand upon, where naught can hurt nor harm, but at this Righteous Government which we represent every knee must bow and every tongue must con_fess,__‘T.he Righteousness of git-the new is ful- ﬁlled the Spirit, for the ':.Law of{«.the‘iSpir- it of, Life in CHRIST JESUS has made“ us freefrom the law of sin and TheI.'efore.,I ‘still Sayjg the , _ sion if of ,5? the :3,’ Law }'ofi?;§‘Righteofiisnés’s, , ; \ ﬁrstly, in, = Abraham-f and —'Moses,i:«7and through ’Moses, Aaron and others} the Law ‘was given an-d handed: down to » ,g,d_eclared it, _ In _the,:~ beginning it .was D the “'3-_FATHE‘R!

Now aren’t you ‘glad! 1 DEGREES OF UNFOLDMENT \ The transmission of that identical expression, the CHRIST, from that angle JESUS manifested, has been truly transmitted and reproduced in this expression from the Son to the FATHER, from the Sonship Degree to the FATHERSHIP Degree. As each of theses distinct expressions were degrees of unfoldment from the very foundation up until the pres- ent, it was not necsesary to be termed a per‘son,——eVen the teachingr-fof Mo- ses, The teaching of the Angels from Heaven as termed by the Re_;ligions—‘ this teaching was not merely to be classed as a person, neither the teacher as a person, but as ‘a Prin- ciple, expressible, transmittible, rein- carnatable, and reproducible, yea re- personiﬁable. , ,Therefore the identical Message in the Law of Moses, and through Moses handed down through the Prophets and the Seers to JESUS, each of these distinct expressions was,—a1l of them were,——-degrees of unfoldment as an expression, not especially ad a per- son. The person was the exemplifier, the person was the demonstrator and the manifestor of that ‘Principle as brought to fruition in that particu- lar Dispensation. That is the mys-gl tery!

The FATHER was in the beginning, and the FATHER is NOW_' A in the END. The FATHER was not matter, and the FATHER was not matter in the Sonship Degree, but His Condescen-,' sion to come in a Bodily Form exem- plifying the Son, it was essential for” Him to do so. So it is in this Dis- pensation, it is essential for that Word -to be made Flesh in the FA- THERSHIP Degree as well as it was made Flesh in the Sonship Degree, Therefore I Say, RIGHTEOUSNESS, TRUTH and JUSTICE, these Quali- ties have truly come, and GOD in Love and Mercy, and Compassion has truly Personiﬁed eyery one. By ‘this we shall have a Righteous Government, for I have drafted the Righteous Government Platform from the Righteous minds of the children of men. Since they have been converted to GOD they have a Righteous Judg- ment, and from the Righteous Judg- ment I, have drafted the. RIGHT- EOUS GOVERNMENT PLATFORM as a Foundation ,,for all Government to build upon. DEMANDS RESPECT‘ OF ALL PEOPLE Therefore I demand the -respect of all people» in all walks of life, all pro- fessions and all trades, all gifts and 1 all talents, to recognize the Funda- mental that I am exemplifying, and in recognizing it why it will be trans- mitted to them as a Blesser to them in their endeavors,_for I am a Sam- ‘ ple and an 7fExa‘mple'for others.“ ' ,:Now say, ,RIGHTEOUSNESS,V ’ _ TRUTH and JUSTICE, as these Qual- ities were brought to fruition in Lot ‘ and .in'XAbraham,' so "must we bring Righteousness into. our, daily actions, ‘ » into our daily dealings,’ — Whenthis , __ ,1, is accomplished, eachihand ‘everybody: .will be successful V-an,d~:.;=,prospero and none will lack in GOD’S’~‘Abun-',, dance, ‘for there wil1.f;be"a-full"”and " Just as ‘you ' see Righteousness through these My Followers all suc- cess and all prosperity, and all inde- pendence, even above all oppositions.

Every },1njust Official and representative of the political ma- chinery that would attempt to try to i prohibit one of My Followers from M registering and voting, that person ‘ is tryingto undermine the very Con- stitution by which he is protected.

That is their conscious conviction, that they should be changed from nature to Grace, changed from that A-damic state of consciousness, and changed from that old mortal cursed name to a New Name that the Mouth of GOD shall name them, You read in the Pro- phecy, ‘They shall be called by a New Name that the Mouth of GOD shall nahiﬁex Name means nature in Hebrew. They are New Creatures.

Therefore RIGHTEOUSNESS, TRUTH and JUSTICE must have it, and must be established in all (of My true Followers universally, and they all must recognize the Virtue of Mary as brought to the surface for re-exempliﬁcation, and for the re- establishment of RIGI-ITEOUSNESS and VIRTUE among the people. You have never seen nor heard of such an expression that would in reality bring about such a Virtue and such Virtues as My Followers. Not a one of My true Followers would even so» much as smoke a cigarette. Not one of My true Followers would even so much asdrink a glassiof intoxicat- ing liquor_ Not one of them! If they Would or if they do, anyone ‘among you may know they are not of Me. LIFTED UP THE- STANDARD Take these Thoughts to considera- tion, and lift up the Standard for My People continually. When you do, GOD will abundantly bless you and causeyou to prosper even as I do. Take these Thoughts to consid- eration. Look at all of the Connec- tions up here in the Pnomised Land among My Followers;-—these differ- ent Extensions belonging to them, brought into subjection to RIGHT- EOUSNESS, TRUTH 'and JUSTICE." You can see the prosperity, you can see the success, you can see the har- mony. You can see, they will not buy anything -on credit or the install- ment plan. They pay cash as they go, they owe no man! They do not borrow, they -do not steal! They re- turn all stolen goods,——the stolen goods they stole, twenty-ﬁve, .th,irty, all 'oldT.bill_s‘,'th,ey _refused- to ‘pay be- fore they ‘knew, Me, _so long‘ as they know -tliey are just-ly due _those to .. whom they °"owe_"them.‘ This-“is a _ part of \_My, RIGI-ITEOUS GOVE_RN- MENT PLATFORM upon which we ‘ ‘stand.

But if you rebel against this Fundamental and will think antagonistically concerning Me, and conﬂictingly concerning Me, the reverse conditions will ‘result, the same as the desirable conditions re- - sulted by those of My Followers thinking harmoniously and believing sincerely, and thinking positively concerning Me. When they thought positively, and sincerely, and harmo- niously with Me, though I did not touch them Personally, their unde- sirable conditions were healed imme- diately by the harmonious thinking and by thinking positively with Me.

I know no doubt you" have heard of an attempt through an unjust Judge down in Maryland_ Because one of My Followers,—one who believed in Me the same as one of the people who believe in the Christian Teaching,—— because he believed in Me and his car had an accident with another man’s car down in Maryland, I had nothing to do with it, the unjust Judge got a judgment against Me. Now do you think I would", pay it? I Now do, you think because you be- long to the Christian Church that every Christian Minister would be responsible for something you ‘do, even if you did something? But this happened not even to be something that was justiﬁable. The man ran into the car, so I am informed, but because this car was in a strange part of the country, down there, and they knew of'_it being some of My Followers, they got a judgment‘ against him, and turned an-d got a- judgment against Me. COULD‘ NOT BE AFRAID , Now that is the only thing that any person could rightfully say that has been anything right even legally, come against Me, that would appar- ently be what I owe and did not pay; ‘ that would even APPARENTLY be. But I was not even there Personally. Now I am not afraid of the gangsters, but if I could be afraid I would be afraid of the legal and political crooks and gangsters, The legal and political crooks and gangsters that sit behind the bench with'thei—r robes on, taking advantage of -those whom they think are not in their likeness, through prejudice, such like those are the ones I would be a'fraid -of if ‘I could be afraid. I am not afraid of the gangsters that will hold men up at the point of a gun and take their means, their property, illegal- ly, but if I could be afraid I would be afraid of the legal and political crooks. I , Take these Thoughts toconsidera- tion. That is why I Say RIGHT- AEOUSNESS, TRUTH ana JUSTICE ' must get on the Bench in our Courts of Law, and must be elected in all of our Ofﬁcial political duties and le- gal affairs, that GOD Himself might Judge through them. That is the way He was to come, and that is the‘ way He Came. I Thank you.” Promises to Discharge Any Who Discriminate New York, Oct. 31.——Major Ed- mond H: Levy, deputy marshall of the WPA, addressing the opening of WPA projects exhibits tO“the 369th Regiment Armory in Harlem Tues- day night, said in part: “There is something else-that I would like to make clear. I am told that from time to time complaints, have been made that in assigning people to WPA jobs there has been discrimina- tion. I am not going to make, char- i ges against anyone for what has hap- pened in the past. But I want to. tell you, and I say this with)the full‘ -approval of Col. Somervell, that if we , get any proof that anyone in theyj Works Progress Administration‘ do-_' nies a man or a woman who is work- ing rfor WPA, because of race, color-» or religion; or similar miserable ex- cuse, we’ll force him out of the or-._ ganization without a mon1ent’s_hesi- tation_ And let me add that I ﬁrm- ly» believe that there has been very little discrimination. Down in Wash- ington‘ we have Mr. Smith. Here in New York City we have Mr. (‘Lem- uel L.) Foster. We have working with us a group of whose business it is to see that there is no discrimination. Ridder, who was formerly the admin- istrator here made it an «outs’tanrd- ‘ , ing feature of his administration that .. prejudice was out of the picture. Col. Somervell is a soldier. dier. anything about the magnificent rec- ord‘ of all men when this co'untry».> called men to arms. And you can take it from me that we «do not in- tend to let anyone besmirch that rec- ord by unbaisness or discrimination in the conduct of the Works ‘Prog- ress Administration.” (Note.——We welcome such senti- ment and trust it~is genuine.) ., A flannel cloth dipped in oatmeal makes a good cleaner «for "painted woodwork. » i .

ASteamship’s Rolling Checked by Stabilizing_F ins Sea-going travelers who are sub- ject toseasickness can now look for- _ ward to smoother voyages as a re- sult of a. new stabilizing ﬁns which have been adjusted to ocean vessels. Any tendency of the craft to roll au- tomatically tilts port and starboard ﬁns in opposite directions, and the _ forward motion of the ship pnoduces a stabilizing force that keeps it on an even keel. During an"experiment~ al demonstration in 3. recent trial of theginvention on an English Chamiel steamship, the vessel was lrockle"d"- in .a calm sea. as then ﬁns were pur- posely tilted. .;__ ._ ‘ PEACE 2 SOLAR CAFETERIAM 104 West 116th St..

In the heat and brilliance of the campaign an=d the President’s great victory, many citizens may forget .the solemn duties imposed upon the law- makers, and the Chief Executive_., L Brilliant was the ‘victory and the nation rejoices with the President in his hour of triumph. But stern are the responsibilities accompanying the ﬂush of victory. Most solemn among the considera- tions to be faced by the President and the next congress—is the solemn mat- ter of the Anti-Lynch Bill. ’ Many representatives have [prom- ised bo present Anti-Lynch 1egisla—‘ tion, in one form orjanother, at the next session" of -congress in January. Many able lawmakers have pledged themselves to take the ﬁght for a rigid Anti—Lynch bill to a showdown. A more determined ﬁght than ever will be made to obtain passage of this vital bill—than which there is no more pressing and essential legisla- tion confronting y_the nation. ~ Little glory or lasting satisfaction can accompany the President's victory and the._ deliberations of the forth- coming congress if the Anti-Lynch bill is again sidestepped-. " In the midst of glorious achieve-' ment the ugly head of lynching stands more and more as a hideous, anon- strous -blot on our civilization, Amer- ican ideals and traditions, A Let us not forget the Anti-Lynch bill. _ And the important fact that there is no other ‘real’ bill than the one" approved by FATHER DIVINE. Let us end Amerioa’s Shame in the coming congress! p A V \ “Everyday is a fresh beginning; is the world made new. ‘A A Impossible Lose Freely to it Me Most In Need-—FATHER DIVINE I it “Some Unconsciously " Strike the Keynote of iSi1ccessii" -7.

TIME: 8:05 P.M. I It was Saturday Evening, in the Country-Town of ‘Stone Ridge, up in the Mountains ‘of New York State, that the Banquet so delicious and piping hot was being servedpby the Blessed—Hands of the MASTER In thebeautiful new Dining Hall, which has been so‘ recently built and mod- ernly furnished, with its beautiful ar- ray of lights which softly glistened, comfortably sat. apart of the" An-/’ gelic Host prepared to dine,‘ before". -their departure to the Meeting ofithe RIGHTEOUS GOVERNMENT F0.- RUM, in another section of this beau,- tiful country,-in Ulster County, name- . ly, High Falls. Around the long “I-shaped Table” sat the Angels. In, company there- with sat Mr. .Ben. Lazarus of the W.P.A_. Theatre Project, who has re- O centlypbeccime very interested in -the Activities of FATHER DIVINE. The Rev. Dennis,_of the Apostolic; Faith Church, of England, who had. come to the New York Headquarters seek‘- _ 'ing FATHER and learning, that was in the Promised Land, accom- panied one of the Secretaries of the PEACE MISSION, with a group‘ of other interested friends and Follow- ers to the handsome Extenvsioni in Stone Ridge, where all meteninil-ove and in the bond of Fellowship: toCer,1- joy the wonderful,_tast;y dinneriwhich ‘had been‘ prepared. by ‘_‘.The_7 ‘Di:-ft vine’Cooks,”?and best of all to:‘:feea;sti.

All enjoyed‘ , .’ j ' .-the Minister, who. gave a ‘slight ac» - I count of his work,‘ the scope ofgit,. and anilappreciation .of his being;in the PRESENCE of FATHER.” He; ” I stated thatnow he wouldbe able to 5 give a true report of what heehad » i actually seen- and “what FATHER DIVINE is doing for the people Uni- ‘ versally when he returned —to"» his home in ‘England, for his eyes plhadi actually beheld the Glory .~ of the LORD. A - O . "In. the beginning of ' the_ Banquet FATHER sang the little _s'ong,§—that prefaces the Message, and extended a cordial welcome to the Minister.

Further ac- count of this Meeting is elsewhere given. V l . With the deepest‘ appreciation to 0 U R ._ EVER-CQNDESCENDING S,AVIOUR,., we offer our humble, sincere and heart-fe1t.i_ gratitude all summed up in; these words; I “We thank THEE FATHER.” “One by one I saw the Angels coming, ' , I One by one I heard them sing, One by one I heard the Spirit humming, . ‘ ‘Allelujah, Praise the KING. They are coming seeking new bodies, On this earth to dwell among men, They want bodies, somewhat like your FATHER"S ‘Allelujah, Praise the KING.” GOOD HEALTH! _ GOOD WILL and _ Goon APPETITE,’ with coon MANNERS and Goon ,BEHA— I ,VIOUR, with ‘a heart full of merri- ne_ss,—these and all other Blessings I have called into outer expressi.o_n, that mankind might observe them as they are manifested, but at this par- ticular, time, ‘I have not arisen to speak_in Person, as we have with us, as our guest this ‘Evening, a Min- ister from abroad. As it is our,cus- tom to always be mindful how we entertain strangers, I feel it is .our dispensive; duty "to refrain. from speaking and singing for a moment and give the Minister 9. chance to speak, I have not mentioned any other, “although there may be appar- ently, nevertheless,_. as the rest of you fconsider yourselves at home, I need not say more at” this time. The Rev. Dennis may consider himself in. _‘ the same category after awhile. , I believe when We start Olfltirom +“:°mPered .. . _ happiness that I have seene-._in col- “,the._City of D,_estruction’,’,_to,,‘tlﬁ1__e Celestial City,” we are traveling" from .one Unfoldment to another, until we meet or"'reach that place in con- sciousness which actually satisfies, and when we ﬁnd that place in consciousness that satisﬁes, we ‘will _ feel, somewhait like, relazging to some degree, and ‘I feel. it_ may be the same way some day with Mr- Dennis, but however, as it is our duty to respect those ,who, are ap- parently strangers among us, I, have refrained from speaking and singing in each and all of you for the pur- pose of giving Dr. Dennis ,a. chance to_have , a word, to, say, while, the time seems to be fast approaching that we should be to Our Righteous Government Forum, this Evening, in High Falls. For thiscause, especial- ly, I feel that I should refrainat this particular juncture, and you will hear from Dr. Dennis——Rev. Dennis. (Rev. Dennis speaks) “FATHER. DIVINE, and Brothers and Sisters, I feel that I am greatly priviflegeii to be with you at the Table. today. I am not here under any fa.lse,cause or colors. V sense ,of seeking and viewing things for myself. We read so much, and we can hearso much, but having been in Spiritual Work myself for most thirtyiyears, I have found you cannot go by what you read, and what you hear and very often you cannot go by what‘ you see. We have to.have that Spiritual intuition or Spiritual, guidance, and I am; re- turning on the 18th of this Month, by the Ship “The Queen Mary,” to England, back to my homepthere and to'the church people’, although I; was born a Scotch man._ , . ,. I am returning there, ,and_they 1 will be askingme What I /knowabout :this Work, and so I shall, now be able to say that I sat at this_Table, and that makes all .of the difference. I, viewed quite a .few of the Farms or Kingdoms or Colonies. ._.'I‘hey ap- pear to be in the form of ,_Sét('tl‘:e- ments, to, my mind. Very soon, they will. be in as'ett1ements_, much thick- er than today. , 1 will testify how er. seemto be ,very happy, and all of the Workers that I have seen are very happy,_§.n_d I have in my heart that happinessend the I have come with a true " j to the leges and in 0,t.1”1€I.'. institutions that have been raised up in England and . Scotland bytthe Spirit of Faith. Some very wonderful work has been d.one, yes in my work, I have to travel a good bit, being the Head of a Missionary Church. I meet very m,any..Peo.ple.. I must use a word here, of this. sectionand class—shall I say, of different nations. ,_We have quite a work in Africa and I am quite accustomed of (being with, the people ‘ there, _. seeing the ‘Mission Work, and seeing them just as they are, and I love the _work of _GOD with all of my heart, and when I hear a person singing beside me that their heart’ has been made clean and pure, it touches me as much as any- “ thing I have seen, and thatﬁwas the word‘ I heard just now, I believe. I must /needs take up no more of your time, I am not here to speak. I am here to listen and then _,I am just at the moment in that spirit of abandonment, I am, relaxing that the spirit of GOD might do His- Work for me tonight, because I have many D.eop1._e who a-re_..'Wait.ing for me to- morrow, but tomorrow, is not ours, only today is ours. sroxhiv WORD” I do ‘believe in “The Spoken Word." That Light has been shown to some of us for many, many years,—a rev- elation of GOD in the "earth that must come among _His people, and CI-IRIST will be revealed through man, the Son of man. . So many have seen, They know, quite a different way, but many, tare continually wait- ing for_ something to appear in the , skyuwhen all of, the time, the Word or »GQD._tells_us t'_her,e is to be a Rev- elation in our,,bod,1'eTs, and at that I am pe__r_fectly_satisﬁed, and have been for tWenty_yea.rs,_ and ,with regard I ,exp,ressior_1,. “The Spoken ‘.Word,” we havevused that for twen- ty years, I. called to see Mr. Honaeel, the ‘ ‘Editor to ask him where he got that Word. I saw his secretary, and they thought I had. -better see him. You see I am seekingright away through, because I must spread this Revela- tion of GOD where I go. I rejoice to know that the Healing Powerof GOD is amongst you. We cannot really ‘see GOD manifested without His . Healing Power. ‘He is the Quicken;-.g I -Noivembuer 146., 1936 «trig Spirit, and JESUS Himself said, “If thou .should say to this'Mountain ‘Be removed,’ and without doubt in thy heart, Thou shall have whatsoever Thou wishes.” That also is some’- thing that the Church—‘Ehe Orthodox Church today knows nothing about. So th-at creative “Spoken Word” must be manifest. ,- GREAT SOLUTION IN GOD’S PLAN Someone asked me, “How shall these new things come?” I said, “We shall speak them into existence, We shall believe them to come to pass_” I am very anxious . to. hear the RIGHTEOUS GOVERNMENT Talk tonight, although I know I ought to be hitting for New Jersey, b,uE‘we do believe-—-when I say, “We,” I mean those of the work that I am in,- we believe there is a great solution in *GO’D’S' Plan, the -basis of it has been given in the Bible in the Law that GOD gave to Moses, a great deliverance,-for the people——a change completely from the system of chaos and darkness and complication that we ﬁnd in the world today, and in this Nation, and in all of the Nations. Vv’e have tried, they have tried, but until they‘ do accept the RIGH{I‘- EOUSNESS of GOD ﬁnd His JUS- TICE and the TRUTH of I-I_IS WORD, and obey it, we cannot get out of this Babylon, this awful spirit of con- fusion. ’ Now I am not here to teach. I am just giving a little expression of what is in my heart. (FATHER sweetly remarks: “The Spirit ‘teaches all things. It is not conﬁned”) (Rev. Dennis continues :) , You see we "are following on ‘after TRUTH, that we might see it is ‘op- . e-rating and being demonstrated, and here today I see it demonstrated, a faith, a belief «of creative faith, and now if I say any more, I may appear as a ju-dge, and I must not (‘lo that. I thank YOU. . I thank YOU. (At this time, the Rev, Dennis resumed his seat, and FATHER arose, blessing us with a .mighty powerful, MESSAGE, which then and there proved MAJESTY,» DOMINION and POWER.) PE\ACE, EVERYONE: ; (“Peace FATHER DEAR!” was the joyous response, of the Throng.) While the Minister was speaking, The é‘s’PoKENi woRn5' I thought of what I have often said, although those of you, (My Followers might observe and recognize the Per- soniﬁcation, the Materialization and the Uniﬁcation of GOD and man; all of these expressions brought into out- er manifestation, and in reality unify the Body, the Spirit and recognized by those of you who, see it, never- theless, as I say, when the Minister -said, “He did not come to teach,” I. have declared “the Spirit teaches all things,” yea, the deep mysteries of GOD. I ~ SIGNIFICANCE IN ONE STILLING HIMSELF , . If the RELAXATION of the con- scious ,ment-ality means anything, and fthe STILLING of one’s self" as an in- dividual, it certainly does mean also, there is a signiﬁcance in one STILL- ING himself or herself as an indi- vidual, that the Fount of -GOD might be heard. I rejoice in hearing and seeing a person refusing to -speak. When -a person refuses to speak, GOD might be seen and heard in that per- son where HE would not be seen nor heard, if that person as a man, from an intellectual, from a social, from a political or from any other mortal ‘point of view, was to speak. That is why I waitedpatiently; I desired to see as it was, yea, as it is, the Spirit move out in Dr. Dennis, and cause him to speak beyon-d his per- sonal control, for when man ceases, GOD will unfold, It has long since been said, “Man’s I extremity ‘is GOD'S Opportunity.” It is fortunate to be “extremiated” as the insigniﬁcant of the earth. I have . “extremiated” Myself in the BODY in which I came, that GDD might be heard, felt and seen, that man might no longer be seen nor heard in the place where I AM. For this cause as JESUS said on one occasion: “I bear no record of Myself.’’, In other words, ‘ ' “Ibear not record of Myself; there is one who ‘bears record of ME that is greater than I.” VOICE OF GOD SPEAKS I rejoice in seeing and hearing in- dividuals put a bit in their mouths as men and women, that they might be STILL, but when we STILL bur.- selves, GOD will speak, if you give HIM a chance. That is why I want- i ed to STILL ourselves aslittle bit‘, be-e \ . -pose, and fulﬁll the Page 5, cause I had begunto hear th'ef‘,\/,',o_i_ce of G’O‘D speak in Dr. Dennis. I rec- ognize the Spirit when it speakest, even though the faces might be strange, but when the Spirit speaks‘ " in the hearts and lives’of men, there and then the conscious actions and expressions and phrases at times cease to function, for GOD~is speak- ing and moving in the consciousness of the minds of those with whom we come in contact’. The transmission of the thought is a reality. The transmission of that thought that I may convey,—the transmission of the thought that you may think as you convey it, others will catch it, when their minds are open to receive it, and it is a real- ity as they too express it, as swiftly or brieﬂy whichever as you can think it, Isn’t that wonderful? So it is a privilege to‘dwell in the unity of Spirit, of Mind, of Aim and of ‘Pur- Scripture, as spoken .by the mouth of David, espe- cially this especial quota.tio‘n: “How good it is to dwell together in unity,” Why? Because the unity_of Spirit, \Of Mind, of Aim and of Purpose, ‘by intuition and by the inspiration of the Spirit, GOD will teach you something. Isn’t that wonderful, and as Dr. Den- nis said, “Faith is the VICTORY,” knowing within yourselves you can speak into existence every desirable Blessing and every -desirable Expres- sion. Just a few years ago, I refused to express from certain angles of ex- pressionwherein we‘ are now func- tioning, but knowing the time had ' truly come, as GOD had, in reality, Gloriﬁed His Son, ,His MAJESTY must needs appear in the Flesh, -and in and on the Material Plane to prove His MAJESTY, the Mastery over ma- terial things as well as RULING as LORD of lords and KING of kings in and on the Spiritual Plane. REDEEMER OF UN DESIRABLE CONDITIONS What proﬁt would GOD beto those who are functioning on the Earth ‘Plane, if HE could not be recognized among, them as the,REDEEMER_ of them from the undesirable conditions, f.I‘0m' negation, from chaos and the chaotic conditions, the, millions have been undergoing through these, years of depression, ‘ through hardships in- \ A fIicted_ upon the poor common people, HE was‘ * /,.”I"hage u / fast welimay see it, humanly speak- ing, that ‘have been inﬂicted ‘upon’ them by the oppressors? But by the Spirit of MY‘ PRESENCE, I speak, I observe that which I have said, and I see‘ it appearinto outer expression, and I am causing mankind to ob- serve it just the same as I have said it.

'From that mo- ment on he’ was in the limelight, i with, radio appearances, vaudeville,‘ interviews, and crank visitors plagu-V ing him from morning till night. “It's been worth it for the ex- perience, if for nothing else,” he laughed “after the first twelve months of his‘ newly found fame. “I’ve dis- covered that the "average man has more friends than he has enemies. Friends outnumber enemies ten to one.” _ 1 4 But that was eight years ago. Now Gray’s patience has been sore- ly tried by :,the' constant, publicity and fanfare. He still. lives in the same house,-has his same job, be- longs to the same Methodist Church. His children have grown up; hevstill likes his newspapers and this slip- pers. He has a new ‘car, and the daubs of silver at his temples are. more noticeable. Fort Madison has i grown to a Itownof 13,700 some in- habitants, an increase of a little. over two thousand people in the nine year interval. Life in the little town ‘runs on in its sleepy, quiet cadence, the Mis'sissippi River still flows by as it always has. ' “But llisten,” Gray pleads, “‘le’t’s forget this ‘average man"idea.

The Government ‘related ‘that crack troops of the Loyalist Army had slippedacross the Montenarez River where they made a sudden» smash- ing attack on the besieging Insur- gents.

Maritime Leaders Protest Espionage \ Strike ‘Continues San Francisco, N ov. 13.-—Federa1 in- vestigation of the hiring of private rdetectives to spy on Union oﬁicials was demanded last night by leaders of the West Coast waterfront strike. The consulting attorney for the strik- ing union called upon the United ’States Waterfront Commission to get to the bottom of charges that spies are constantly on the trail of work-' ers. The lawyer charged that $15,- 000 worth of tear-gas has been stored illegally in San Francisco’s Hall of Justice for use in case of strike "trouble, , Meanwhile spokesmen for both ship operators and unions denied that Sec-’ retary of Labor Perkins was justi- ﬂed in her statement that the strike was near settlement. According to leaders of ‘both sides it seems that both the employers and Union lead- ers‘ are determined ti)‘ continue the struggle and the general opinion among waterfront circles is that on- ly Government intervention‘ ‘ can get the strikers back on their jobs, _Incid_,ental,ly, Rear-Admiral Harry Hamlet said that hewould leave for Washington,‘ Sunday,‘ to report to the Maritime Commissiongjwhich has de- cided to extend‘ its inquiry to the East’ Coast. ” A ' On Friday, attorneys for the Inter- V national‘ Seamen’s Union will argue for a dismissal of an injunction for- bidding strike propaganda.

The ﬂood- lights were so powerful that it was not necessary for the motorists to ~ use headlights on crossing the costly span. Governor Frank Merriam had earlier in the -day officially «opened the bridge with Former President Her- ‘bert Hoover, and the two of them were the ﬁrst to drive across the. eight and a quarter mile span, which is seven times as long as the Brook- lyn Bridge. Incidentally, the Bay Bridge is so huge that experts say that no bigger bridge will be built for the next thou- sand years. . They claim’ there are ‘no large navigable bodies of water where the traffic is likely to be dense 'enough to justify the cost of any such bridges The San Francisco- ‘ioakland Bay Bridge has been justly adjudged as “the world’s largest steel job.” i 3 ' Nobel Prize Goes to 2 Americans Stockholm, November 14.——The No- bel Prize committee has selected two‘ Americans” for its "1936 awards.

MENACE (Special to The “Spoken Word.”) Los Angeles, Nov. 9th.——At a reg- ular meeting held at 120 Union Ave- Anue, by The California State Contin- uation Committee for United Political‘ Action, delegates were present repre- senting all labor, liberal; pr-ogressiye, church and fraternal organizations in a’ gathering which heralded a most signiﬁcant step in the liberal move- ment. Ed, McLarty was chairman of the meeting which was called to consider action against the threat of Fascism. Among the speakers were Leon Schorr, Mr. Ernest Dawson, Doctor Biegelman, Attorney Aidlin, Mr, Tol- ins, Walter Landoor, and Doctor Con- liife, recently returned from a north- ern trip for the purpose of contact- ing liberals. ' ‘ A The prime purpose of the" meeting was to discuss the formation and ‘ad- vancement of the new Farmer-Labor A party which has attained a large growth in the United States, partic- ularly in Minnesota and other mid- dle western states. all the liberal roieésf, using” the Farm- ‘tide of Fascism and The coalition «of A "er-Labor group as a nucleus, in a U. -S. ‘popular front forming a great people’s party was described as the main objective in view-Lalthough the new party may be known by-other than these names. a _ g The new people’s party which is .be- ing- contemplated will serve andi_rep- resent the masses against the rising reaction, the spearhead of which is the growing Fascist movement. S Virtually all of the speakers warned that the Fascist groups in America will start ostensibly as ‘fliberal” or people’s movements just as Hitler in Germany called his party the National Socialist Party, which had no actual relation to genuine social security for the people. Such subterfuges were depicted as merely attempts to throw “dust in the , eyes the people.” The group meets every other Mon- dayiat the Union Avenue address. “The ‘Lord redeemeth the soul of His servants, and. none: of them -that trust Him shall be desolate.” ' ’Angeles November 4th 4 Saturday, ‘November 14th, 1936' / A SIGNIFICANT ELECTION, Praise GOD—-—Praise HIS NAME.

"fipsaturd-ay, November 14th, 1936 “CHAPTER Two’? or About a year ago the SPOKEN WORD published a brief ‘statement " about FATHER DIVINE from a well—known woman author and Together with‘ this state- ment was a letter to one of the editors in which the lady” said that among" the influences that had led her to an appreciation of FATHER DIVINE was her little maid, an Angel named “Alicia.” A " Now, a year later, she writes again, saying, among other things, “And my angel Alicia is still with us—over a year and a half _now— and she , IS an angel. Really I do think what FATHER DIVINE is doing for ALL of the "R ones I’ve contacted is INDEED WONDER- FUL! Alicia has been so faithful, feeling our interests as if she were one of the family here, and the- girls and I really love her.- She has silently taught us many a lesson in patience and love.” That is ‘such a perfect expression A of what seems to be a perfect life that any comment upon it would seem, one fears, flat and super- fluous. But I am thinking of that little angel Alicia’ multiplied byymaniy thousands. Can we imagine what it is going to mean to"the'wor1d¥- what" it "means to the world even now, to have such angels ‘scatter- ed about among the homes,‘ the towns and cities of the world’ living the heavenly life while doing the world’s work! ' ‘ ._Just look again at the adjectives and nouns in that perfectly _spon- taneous =express’i.on of appreciation of a beautiful life. “Faithful.” “Pa- tienc_e.” “‘Lov’e.” A Paul. said that Love is the great- est of all graces. Henry Drummond, in his lovely prose symphony of comment A on that magic Thirteenth Chapter of First Corinthians, calls Love “The Greatest Thing in the V’‘.''‘.>¥'‘1<‘1-’..’. . eBut;.w0nd9I?f1i1 as iI.4.°‘Ti‘?. “tax be, ‘Pit "becomes‘ lovelier _1?a:?§' tience is added. For Love’ is a mat- ter of moments; rather, it is made up of acts and events and moments. Patience, is the thing that makes , Love steady. ‘And then, when you can add FAITI,-IFULNESS, ‘you have, indeed, the Perfect Eic_ture—-Not a_ flash-light picture; not a snap-shot, 9. The “SPOKEN WORD” AN ANGELIC sToRY, but a long, thousand-re-el motion picture, made up of acts and deeds, tens of thousands of them—extend- ing over all the days and weeks and months of a year—a year and a half-—Love, steadied by Patience -and kept by Faithfulness. I‘ certainly cannot think of a more beautiful story than that; can you? FATHER asks us to keep nega- tive thoughts and comments out of our speech, but HIS SPIRIT and HIS WORDS often contain warn- ings, at least. And I suppose a confession is always in order. So I put down two added thoughts. First. Think of the angels who were bright and shining lights for FATI-IER’ a_ year ago"; then examples of Love and Patience and Faithfulness, who’ have slipped back, and are not shining today—— Second. Alicia’s record condemns me. Many and many a time have I slipped since that first letter was published’ a year ago. I think Ican say -that the Love for FATHER. , burned steadily in my heart as these “months have passed. But I have failed‘in Patience. In turning my Love for FATHER into pa- tience and faithful service for oth- ers \I have failed. So, although I scarcely know Alicia-~ personally, and could not identify her if I met her ‘on the sidewalk—I thank FATHER for her, and for her life of Loving, Pa- tient, Faithful Service. I And I like to think how wide the circles are of the hearts who are touched by her faithful love, as it must be reflected in the spoken and written Words that go out from the home where every day she is let- ting her light shine. ’ who were A Page 23 FARTHEST.

That hour’s rain does not mean anything in the It only takes two Some people‘ I have heard say, rnakves the ground dry.’ If some neighbor tells you that next summer, "I want to tell youthat by loosening V. the ground you keep the water un- fiderneath, so itdcannot dry out, I hope Imakpe myself clear, but I am not a lecturer by profession. . T The next’ thing to water is food Now we know when itscomes to food for humans or ani- mals"; we don’t, in professional lan- guage, speak of potatoes or beets, but we speak of carbohydrates and fat-s and all the other food elements, into" which we divide our foods. In plant foods we recognize four’ ele- ments that a.__ plant needs. I was planning to have a blackboard here tonight to write on the blackboard the names of the elements. The four elements plants need are, in order of importance; nitrogen, phosphate, po- V tash and lime. Now‘lime we seldom apply. Some ground does need it, especially low ground, but if you give a ton to an acre, -that will carry you ‘ maybe for ten years to come, so that is not your biggest problem. Potash seems to be present in suf- ficient quantity\,in this part of Amer- ica; so you seldom have to apply that.‘ When I came to the east I found by analysis of the ground it seems to be quite high in ‘potash. Certain cropsonly -need’ aniextra supply of potash, for- instance, potatoes and beets; All the root foods need po- tash~'—beets, potatoes, carrots. vNo'w ifyou have a small garden and don’t like to buy commercial fertilizer, your best substitute is com- .mon wood ashes. "Save them every . morning and Keep them dry and when you zplant your potatoes in spring a little handful of wood ashes will do wonders for them.’ In other _crops I don’t think you would get a poor crop if you did not have an extra supply of potash. ‘ ~ Now.phosphate.is very much need- ~ed. .. -‘In fact, itis‘ not used‘ half". enough.‘ In the ﬁrstplace the ground The “SPOKEN WORD’; here contains very little phosphate. The second point is in‘ connection with barnyard manure. Manure fromthe chickens, cows, and horses, has a »de‘- ﬁciency of phosphate, so any time, you apply barnyard manure to your garden it is a safe bet that "you can do twice as well -by adding to your- manure some phosphate and I would advocate applying 400 lbs. to an acre. 400 lbs, would cost you at the pres- ent rate about $3.20. From that $3.20 investment you are going to reap -in many- cases $25.00, so that is a good investment. I - ' Now comes the most effective ele- ment, nitrogen. Nitrogen is very dear because it is found only in. low per- centage in our manure. Chicken manure is the richest, because it con- tains the most nitrogen. Nitrogen is the element that makes things grow fast and green; that is why it is so important_ If you use cheap manure, or chicken manure, you will have enough nitrogen in that for most any crop, but in case you have; a crop you wish to grow .very‘fast, like head let- tuce or onions, it can stand an extra supply of nitrogen. Chile istthe only place in the entire world where Na- ture has stored nitrogen in a huge amount, It does not have to be mined, you only‘ have to dig in the -ground, which contains 16%,of nitrogen. It is Very, very rich. Any time you have a crop that does not grow fast enough, or you get a cool spring, plants begin to look yellow and don’t grow, that_is the time to apply nitrogen. ‘I have seen times when four days after ap- plying, nitrogen, the plants’ begin to show leaves. It is one of the %best aids for fast growth. One thing I should warn you about, when you apply nitrate of soda, never put it on the plant while it is’ wet.‘ I mean, if you have a small row of sweet corn or beans, or anything of that kind, and you throw nitrate .of soda between the rows and ‘some- thing comes on the leaves while they are wet from dew or otherwise, that nitrogen will ,dissolve and make a brine and burn the plants. So the safest thing to do is to broadcast it on the leaves when they are entirely dry, or when it is raining, then it does not have time to stay on the leaves andiburn them.

Y'., SUNDAY, OCTO- BER 25TH, ‘1936 A.D.F.D. 11.00 AM. ‘ i A Righteous Government ,Forum October 24th, filled with the ecstasy of FATHER’S Personal Presence and held’ in the beautiful new Dining Room at the,S__tone Ridge Extension in the, PROMISED LAND; a late Banquet; a night at the, KING’S TOWN Mansion; then a sixteen mile "ride to New Paltz in the early morn- ing sunshine,--these were merely a prelude to still. greater Blessings FATHER ‘had in store for many, that day, . All New Paltz, FATHER Person- ally, with Own Dear Hands was commencing to serve the, Banquet. Such Abundance! Such food!‘ It truly -was the. Table of The King! Even the King’s meat,—roast pheas- ant,—was there." /But no earthly King ever tasted, and no King ever served, such Spiritual ‘Fare as FA- TI-IER placed before,_His eager Chil- dren.‘ It was the Wisdom, of GOD hitherto unspoken and unimagined, just given casually and conversa- tionally, as He s‘at at the ,Table_ _ One, of the Guests was from the theatrical world. His contact with FATHER covered only a couple of weeks, butne was beginning to_rec- ognize His GOD and he made this declaration. He thanked FATHER ‘ for the privilege of [being present‘ and ipartakinglof all these blessings, and b,ein’g of the Hebrew Faith he made his declaration thus: ‘,With Your approval FATI-IKER I would like to call You from now on, FATHER DI- VINE,——'1‘]HE GREAT I AM.’ In response FATLHER unfolded more of Wonderful Mysteries, Speaking Personally as follows:—- THANK YOU FATI-,I,ER ,“Wel1 of‘ course I usually allow a. person tobe governed by his or her highest intuition, and of course as I ,- often, Say, if you continue to call a Mankind Can See It As Never Before” ——-—-o——— V child a natural born ‘other fellow,’ better ‘known by the Religions the -Devil, that child will ‘eventually take on the characteristics and nature’ of that which you are stressing to him and imposing upon him. If the neg- ative is» contagious, and is made ‘a reality by conception,——by conceiv- ing the idea,+the positive is as op- erative and has real as the negative. Therefore It consider, any person or persons, even on the materials, plane in mortal consciousness as an ordinary person; whensoever you are honored With‘ the honor of a mission or calling, yea even so much as being called by an honorable name, if it is honorable and «desirable, the qual- ities you should endeavor to produce and ‘bring forth into"outer expres- sion, if it is only for the purpose of ‘fulﬁlling that person’s word that that person might not be untrue. So I often Say it is a great blessing for , a person to observe the signiﬁcance of living up to the. positive words that are spoken concerning them, TEST AND TRIAL Of course you have a test and a trial to do it,—as was in the‘case V of Job. Job, GOD Declared to be atperfect and upright man, and be- cause of this Declaration oppositions began. When the oppositions began the trial was on you see, but to stand to such a version and such a decla- ration that GOD made concerning .him, it was Job’s duty to stand to his integrity. . As said ‘the other fel- low’ in speaking concerning him, ‘Do you still stand to your integrity?’ So_ if. there is a. positive spoken word concerning anyperson, if it is a mi- nor spoken Word as a title a person may be called, that person should live up.to it as far and as much as pos- sible, that that person who has made such a declaration concerning that person might remain truthful, for Righteousness’ sake and for the sin- cerity that was in that person that made such an assertion, Its is in- deed Wonderful! . A. _> ._ ALL THINGS POSSIBLE _ By this, all mankind will have a chance to develop the good and min-_‘, imiae the bad, multiply the positive M ’ and cancellate until they can eventu- ' ally dispel and completely eradicate the negative. That is the mystery! All of thoseuthings are possible if you ‘t are p,ersis«tent in your ambition, for the CHRIST in the Person of JESUS i was the Sample“, and the Exarnple. When the Declaration was made c-on- x cegrning Him had He not lived ac- F cording to the version of the pre- ' dicter He could not have brought ‘to . fruition that version in the eon- sciousnessVof_tl_l.e people, and in Him- A self as the Manifestor. But as lived it and expressed it ‘scienti- fically and perfecltly, He brought‘ to fruition other words declared by the "pre- dicter, that He was in‘ reality’ the Fulfillerdof the prediction. Isn’t that D Wonderful! 9 OPPOSITION S ' WILL ARISE Upon this Foundation if you will : _ stand, positive words cannot causep you to deviate from that whichis Just and Good, but the opposition will arise to prohibit such a state of mind from being brought to fruition. ’ V But if ‘you are persistent in your ambition, greater is He that is with- in you than all those oppositions and opposers’ who may be against you. S-o it is a privilege to realize, positive spoken words should be rec- ognized, and should not be actual- ly denied. You overcome by the testimony you hold. ‘They overcame by the Blood of the ‘Lamb, and by the testimony the-y held.’ ’ - So if you hold a testimony, if you are steadfast and unmovable, and _ substantiated in ‘Faith, that which has been spoken" by 'inspiration in you, or by inspiration in others, if , you ‘stand fast to the prediction you . will eventually be in reality, the ful- in Himself , that identical » ‘ vesrsioln that was predicted and A in It is indeed Wonderful! . xiﬁaturday, "November 14th, 1936 S E The “SPOKEN wonn” Page 27 .2 fillet‘ of it.

Isn’t that Wonderful! Andthat is why men are marvelling at the unﬁoldment of this Mystery, especially since it is brought- into_ materiality and ma- terially manifested, made real, tan- gible and practical for all human- i‘ty.‘ They MUST marvel at it! Just’ as it is here, so will we have ,it ‘all‘ over after—a-while. At the time of so-called depression, when there was a great depression sweeping -over the whole world of Civilizati«on,'at such a time I put in My appearance, yet always being here. to the. children of‘ 'me1i,~—-Isn’t lthat Wonderful,—'to let! them see and know such a recognition as those of The I . pressions But I began to show Myself . My true Believers would lift all hu- manity out of depressions, out of lacks, wants and limitations, and out of the hardships, and trials and tribulations’ the Universe has been undergoing. Isn’t that Wonderful! LIFTING THE HUMAN RACE The very Name of GOD, or Whom . you say I Am, has actually lifted the whole human race, and mankind can see it as never before, but they shall see it‘ a million-fold more. I Thank you. It is Wonderful! The Mental Omnilucence of GO‘D’S In- finiteness proceeding from His Omni- science, will cause the stagnation and the stilling of the‘ conscious minds of men when ‘they, mentally observe Him. On the Mount of Trans- figuration parably speaking, in the act of CHl?_{IST’S unfoldment to His People, He; demonstrated’ the, identi- cal, as it reads. It is recorded as if though there were the Rays of Glow‘ upon "I-Iim,¥—the visible Rays of G~:ov'v, and the Glows of GOD'S Ray, better known as the Glo-ray of GOD. Nevertheless, if you take it from a mental point of View for consideration, the Mental Omni- lucence‘-of His ‘Understanding was so dazzling it was ‘dizzling.’ It caused Peter, James and John to fall. as dead men at the ‘Glory of the Light of His Understanding as He unfolded to them. Just as He unfolded it to them they could not understand it, therefore they fell as dead men. The ‘Glory of GOD is now re- vealed. Things that have been con- cealed shall ,no longer be hid, for that which is done in secret shall be. made known on the house-tops. As you see yourselves c-oming, and see yourselves here, you are visible ex- 'of the mental and spir- itual conception, and o-f the in- visible, mental and spiritual bless- ings_ They come the same as you. You are outward expres- sions. "You are outwardly expres- sing and telling, in the act of your coming around Me, the mystery of the Abundance of the Fullness im- partedapparently to Me, and they marvel and wonder how can these things be.

I did, but yet if they findoutwhere I am if they ‘can they will come. As you come in persons, so will and so do the blessings ,come,—every desirable blessing, as your desirable harmonious attention has been call- ed to come; to come in all pleasant- ness, come in all harmony, to come in all appreciation, to come with a desire to help if you could. There- fore if you did so, the very Spirit and the Essence of other blessings will come forth into outer expres- sion. I cannot have room to- receive them. That is the mystery! As I “Say at times, I have to get away from even things that I do not care _, fo_r_at times. It is Wonderful! It is indeed Wonderful! _ I Unbelievable as it has been, I have so arranged ways and means whereby your coming will no_t al- ways be in vain,-for your contact with Me, if it is harmonious, will cause an harmonious result to come forth and you will not regret it, It is indeed Wonderful! ‘Harmonious results» will come, and as well_ as getting ‘the harmonious result you will find you will have comfort, and convenience, and accommodation, and as you live in! the Light of this Un- derstanding you ‘will not have an occasion to worry. OUTLET FOR EXPRESSION _ . As Mr. Madison said a little while ago about coming up here just a little more than a year ago at this place firstly, this was the first place that came to notice in" connection with Me -as a Person, as being termed under My Jurisdiction. As soon as I opened up the. Way where My Followers could have an outlet to express Ithemselves scientifically, and agriculturally, and industrially, _and politically, and educationally and otherwise, then and there the door was thrown open Wide. We do not see where there will be a barrier! We do not see a limitation! . We «do not see where it is ‘possible for this_ un- foldment to be limited, for it is founded upon. the Fundamental up,- on which GOD Spoke to Abraham Saying,—‘As far out in the.Land as you can see, shall be for your in- , heritance’. Not only so, but ,‘Y"ou'7r seed shall be as the, sands of thefsea The :«s9rohen W10'RiD”A thee, shall all the families of the Earth be blessed.’ . Now is not thT‘s the fulﬁllment of it, - —bringing you back to the very Foundation of Righteousness for this Generation, under the Biblical guid- -ance of GOD transmitting His Spirit through Moses and Aaron; ﬁrstly through" Abraham, Isaac and, Jacob, Moses and Aaron, J_os_hua and Caleb down -to the coming of the begin- ning of Christendom as ,a Standard of Righteousness exempliﬁed in the Person of JESUS, and, bringing it back to the FATHERSHIP Degree to be recognized among the people as a Living Reality, as was in the experience of JESU.S_in the Sonship Degree of expression? Isn't that ,Wonderfu1! . Bringing the Kingdom ‘of GOD to the Earth in reality! _.While the Kingdom of Israel was merely a parable, parably speaking of the mys-' tery of the Kingdom of GOD that. would bring all Nations of the Earth together, as the parable in the King- dom of Israel was limited, therefore’ an_ expression to a, certain degree, of selﬁshness, it could not go on per- fectly_ therefore it was not a Stan- dard for all humanity. Hence the Prophet said by inspiration, ‘Lift upa Standard for My People’. con SPOKE -THROUGH THE PROPHETS , The Standardhas truly been lifted through the Life and the Teaching of JES,US-, bringing in the essence of- all of the different ‘Religions from the, beginning of the Creation,’ and causing all of the Righteousness of all of the Religious to be summated up in this experience in this Dispensa- tion, that the Kingdoms of this world might become to be the Kingdom of our GOD and His CHRIST, of Whom you say I Am. GOD thro_ugh the Pro- phets and the Seers spoke, ‘moved and acted, but in His Own Majesty, Love“ a’nd‘Mercy He came in JESUS in Compassion, but because of His Love, and Mercy and Compassion, without the FATHERSHIP Degree of expres- sion, and without the recognit’ion,of it, the Sonship Degree could not have Dominion over all «of the wickedness of the different Kingdoms. ._ , , Therefore it was essential for the FATHERSHIP, Degree to come forth into; expression as said JESUS in the Prayér,.He Prayed in the Seven- teentjh Chapter of] st_ fJohr_1,_——‘I, Pray and as the of ‘Heaven, and in ‘ hot" that Thou shalt take them out or 1 Saturday, November‘ 14th,, the world -but that Thou shalt heeip JESUS could them from the evil’. not keep‘ them from the evil, for the crooked Politicians killed Him. There- fore it_was essential for the Son- ship Degree of ‘expression apparently ' to make His Ascension, and when He % ‘ Ascended and vanished out of the. sight of the children of men He was merely parably Speaking of going , backfrom whe’nce He came, into the W FATHER from Whom He had de- scended, because He,in the Sonship {Degree did not have the Power to I ‘protect Himself in reality, and to keep His People from the evil. That is why He Prayed the FATHER to keep them from the evil. KEEP THEM FROM THE EVIL Hence it was essential for the FA-* 3 THERSHIP Degree -of expression to 4 ' "come into the consideration!‘ of the people, that they might be free and a GOD .might be able through this‘ recognition to keep them from the.‘ evil. Now isn’t that Wonderful! You" never heard of a Religion, neither a . Religious Teacher or "Professor, who could‘ change mankind’s innate nature and keep them from those ‘evil ten-Q dencies, -until I Came Personally, ‘I Pray not .that Thou shalt take them outof the world, but that Thou shalt‘, keep them from the evil.’ Therefore the GODSHIP Degree of expression was the only Hope of the Reedemption of humanity, to keep them from the evil, for JESUS was with them dai-I ly and He could not stop them from-, doing those things they had been do- ing. Although He Himself as a Per-5 son was Virtuous,—not only Virtuoous « but Holy,——still He could not keep I them from doing thosethings. There- fore He Prayed the FATHER, and in this Prayer it was a beseeching as a» prediction of His Ascension and go- ing to the FATHER. See? ' MYSTERY OF THE AsoEN/sIoN' In the Garden of Gethsemane. when 'He Prayed, the act of the Prayer! V‘ parably speaking _in_ the parable of the Prayer, it was the mystery and the prediction‘ of the Ascension of, JESUS, petitioning the FATHER to keep them from the evil," therecfore He Ascended there. ‘The same as if you had a case, a very irnportariift-‘ case to defend, if you were_an; At- ~ torney and you wished to -‘ ' sehirdiiy, November 14t13‘,‘1‘93ii one «-zeoiieii w‘o7R‘ﬁ" Page 29’ Governor to help you, you may send him a letter, a special letter,——special delivery, registered air-mail, return receipt requested.

Isn’t that Wonderful! ’ JESUS.Ascended, and vanished out — of thesight of the children of men, p-arably speaking of going to the FATHER mentally and spiritually. When this was accomplished He must return. It is indeed Wonderful! ‘He shall return’, and so He did. He» re- turned as He Said, in the FATHER- SHIP Degree of expression, bringing «deliverance to His People, bringing Victory ové,r,ever_y. dilﬁculty, There- fore the FA'1‘HERSHI'P Degree of ex- pression was the only Hope of Re- demption, and _7th'e only Hope of man- ki_nd’s deliverance from the bondage they had been in, and under, from the very Foundation or beginning. REDEMPTIQN mi I Say as this recognition or Hope, of Redemption is made, real, strong, you can see it openly mani- ifeste-d, ‘and GOD Himself in Mercy and _ Compassion expressed. Isn't that Wonderful!‘ Then I Say it is not merely for the spirit nor ﬁor the mind, but it, is for the body and for all of your -affairs, right here in this pres- ent world. ‘I Pray not that Thou shalt -take them out of the world, but -that Thou shalt keep them from the. evil.’ A11 of the Religions of Ortho- doxy, and all of the modern Religions of_ Christendom, and other present Religions in Civilization, and those of uncivilized world, cannot actually keep you from the evil and change you completely from that Adamic "state of consciousness, which is com- ‘mq1;11y,j,<3_a1led ‘from nature to Grace’, ‘It indeed Wonderful! » * _,this,, if. you know you are right relax your conscious ?men- \ ‘i_;ali,ty, as _I Said in reference to Adam. - Agdamfsconsciuous mentality harmoni- ously wa;§,relaxed,__3lnd ‘eon Himself in _Majest'y, after Adam's cbn's’&:”io1is,mental,ity had been relaxed, A joroiight ‘from, Adam, something that would help I: am bringing from Svubcbnsqiolils Mind, Words of Wis- dom, KnoWleodgei,f_a.n-d Understanding.

When you go in the silence if you are a Metaphysician, uorif you are metaphysically inclined, all of these different ways. of the relaxation of the conscious mentality are but ways of parables,speaking concerning the mystery of the relaxation of your mentality in reality, that GOD Him- self might get something out of your subconsciousnéss to help you, asjl-Ie did out of the body of Adam when Adam’s'conscious mentality was re- laxed. GOD caused a deep sleep to come ’upon him, his conscious men- tality was relaxed, and from Adam GOD could get something to help him. When you still your conscious men- tality and relax it completely, the Inﬁnite One within you can and will get something from your subconsci- ousness to help you that will transcend all the conscious thinking of ‘all human intelligent people. I Thank you.” THANK YOU FATHER. SCIENCE ADVANCING ON NEW PATHS ,New progress in approaching the mysterious dividing line between life and non-life and better understand- ing between science and religion were among the positions stated at the re- cent “Mark Hopkins Centenary” held at Williams College. ’ The new experiments ‘in which sci- ence seemed to come nearer than hereto-fore to bridging the gap be- tween inorganic and organic matter were reported by Dr. Irvin_Langmuir, Nobel prize winner in‘ chemistry and associate director ‘ of the General Electric Company’s research labora- tories. Dr. Langmuir did not state that life, or living cells, had actually been pro- duced from non-living matter, butlhe did report_ the artiﬁcial creation for the ﬁrst time of an inanifhate com- bination: of simple chemicals that sim- ulates in behavior and properties the living wall encasing all fundamental units of life. Dr_ Langmuir said that this experiment promised to open up new vistas in the understand- ing of many of life’s mysterious processes. Particularly, Dr. Langmuir stated, it was hoped that the new synthetic “life wall” .would lead to the estab- lishment of some principle “of great use to the biologist in understanding the complicated dependence of living cells upon the composition of the sur- rounding medium.” - At the centenary gathering Pro- fessor Sterling P. Lamprecht, of Am- herst, spoke on “Changes in Religious Belief Due to the Inﬂuence of" Re- cent Sci_ence.’f -He declared that re- ligion had also had an inﬂuence up- on science and contended that wherew as science had until recently “ex- cluded human aspirations and human. purposes from any eﬂicient part in the forces that govern events,” it is now true that “current scientiﬁc speculations are prone not merely to recognize but even to overstate the role of human aspirations and pur- poses in the world,” - He said that “liberals in religion have successively abandoned during the last, century or two a large num- -ber of ancestral doctrines.” , “There has come about,” he de- clared, “a new alignment of intellec- tual forces. Religious liberals who begin by facing all facts religiously can hardly conﬂict with scientists.” Professor William H. Sheldon, of Yale, discussed “The Bearing of Biol- ogy and, Physics on Liberal Religion,” Among the points he announced as “suggested” by recent research were that “process is more real than bod‘- ios,” and that “the ‘deity must be con- sidered to be part of the process of nature rather than an external cre-~ ator.” . . There is also, Professor Sheldon intimated, the suggestion that, ac- cepting the theory of an “expanding universe,’f we must consider unsound the “old notion of a stable order of nature.” “My conception of America is a land‘ where men and women may walk in ordered liberty, where they may enjoy the advantages of wealth, not concentrated in the hands of-- a few but dif/fused through the lives of all,—-Herbert Hoover, Madison Square _ Garden, 1932.

' The “Samsonville Message,” of No- vember I 14th, given in the Divine Lodge,_ was suggested Miss Rest had begun reading the MESSAGE, when FATHER spoke the following: Again FATHER said: i ,1 PARDON ME, for interrupting at 'this particular juncture, but I would just like to say, “THROVV OPEN your minds and BROADEN your borders, that, an might bet in one’, and that all might be “connectable,” that they might be attachable . . . We like for everything to ‘dove-tail, so when itrﬁts in accurately, it will Open your minds, and we will have a won- derful expression, as each one reads together, al-l will make the rightful connection, dispelling al-1 tendencies of directing your’,t-nought in any oth- er direction other than on the FUN- DAMENTAL through complete, con- secration and sacriﬁce to GOD Your SAVIOUR . . . READ ON! (An_d so the reading continued.) ' (At this juncture, We listened to FATHER as HE Personally gave us this‘ wonderful MESSAGE which is Aedifying, to all.) T ' PEACE EVERYONE: \ (“Peace FATHER DEAR!” came the familiar happy greeting.) I have often stressed, and still AM' stressing the signiﬁcance of UNIFICATION and the signiﬁcance off DIALATION. As you concent,rate.on tIh'e'ONE, the only PERFECT IDEA, the FUNDA- MENTAL, it willtcause you, through the concentration on the PERFECT PICTURE, to incarnate through in- culcatin-g the FUNDAMENTALS of \it, the very Nature and the Charac- ‘teristics of it. For this cause, I did refrain from speaking up until this present moment, this Morning, that the Spirit of your mind and the mind of your Spirit might collectively c-ome together through concentration, and unify yourselves together as one man at Jerusalem, by “Dialation,” dialing in on the Identical, the FUN- DAMENTAL is at reality, it is made REAL, TANGIBLE —and PRACTI- CAL, for it is as much incarnatable and re—in-carnatable as it was in the ~ beginning before it was ﬁrstly incar- hated. . ’For this cause, we are rejoicing to realize as we think vividly in one di- By‘ The “SPOKEN WORD” rection, we become to be more and‘ more unselﬁsh collectively, and our ‘minds are. open to the receiving of the Spirit and the Nature of the FUNDAMENTAL, and we become to be collective Partakers of the, iden- tical Nature of CHRIST Your LORD and Your SAVIOUR. SIGNIFICANCE OF UNSELFISHNESS ‘ ,, While sitting, listening and think- ing of the great signiﬁcance of un- ‘ selﬁshness, I thought of the many dif- ferent individiuals who are great Speakers. If one after the manner of men in MY Personal Appearance. or,‘ likeness among them, might be an expresser of the identical expres- sion that I AM expressing, if the-yd can express _perfectly above the meas- ; lure of the average person, that is the person and expression that is appeal- ing to ME as a person. I looked and I beheld as through there was one speaking a little while ago, when I thought and made an emotion of an expression of one of ‘ whom I vdeilig-h.t in many of the ex- pressions and emotions of the indi- vidual“ Why do, and why is it that I delight in it or in t-hem? It is be- cause they are expressing at times, the same that I may attempt to ex- press, or may be an Expresser of, A yet, because they express su-cfh an emotion /or an, expression perfectly as a sample and as an example, I can, rejoice in it. PERFECT PICTURE My thoughts should not be to as a Person, if there are other Speak- erswho can, and who will speak from an angle of expression from whence I AM functioning more perfectly from that particular angle, I can rejoice in it. It is indeed wonderful! Then I thought as I/thought for considera- , tion, it is a wonderful Blessing to ME to consider a person speaking or sing- 'ing,—each of these two distinct ex- pressions are expressions that I may term to be, “expressions that are My hobbies,” speaking to the public, it may be termed preaching, or singing. I delight in doing thesertwo distinot expressions.- In the act of expressing them, I hear and I see others expressing from that angle,, moving volitionally, speaking and singing’ inspirationallyi es Perfect Picitures from that angle. Saturday, November 28th, 1936- -I rejoice in it, and I looked and be- held one a little while ago, and I thought and called your attention to one of the'Fo'l=lowers. I often think of it. I rejoice in it; whensoever one can speak more perfect than I ordi- , narily speak Myself as a Person, I rejoice in seeing and hearing that person speak, for I delight in PER- FECTION coming to the surface that I, My-selif, might obs-erve it. Isn’t that wonderful? (“Truly wonder- ful!” came the response.) SAMPLE AND EXAMPLE FOR OTHERS If after the manner of Song and Praise, ‘coming forth vol-itionally by iiispiration, if it happens to come through an individual as the Perfect = Expression from that angle, I can rejoice in it, because I should be open- minded. If I close MY Mind to the person or persons who may speak or act from an angle of expression from which I may be expressing, more perfectly, because they are Express- ers of the same Expression and may express it perfectly, if I close ‘MY Mind,‘ to it, I would be narrow-mind- ed. For this cause, I think I should open MY MIND at all times, toand for any “voliti-c'>nated” expression that will come spontaneously and in- spirationally through an individual. I rejoice in hearing one in Whom someone knows, yea, someone knows of whom I AM now speaking, some- one knows in this ‘Dining Room of whom I 'AM now speaking, You know I delight in hearing the indi- vidual speak volitionally, spontane- ously and inspirationally, because when the door of human intellect is closed, “the door of Inspiration” is open, and such a door will also open up the way -for an individual who is fully consecrated to speak volitional- «ly and bring out new Mysteries. For this"cause, I rejoice in it: Now isn’t that w»onderful~?".f. Then I say to‘My- self as an Individual, as a Sample and as an Example for others, I must continue to be open-minded to rejoice in the volition of others, as they move volitionally, and as they move inspirationally. A , BEING 0fPEN—MINDED _ I It is a privilege to realize the sig- niﬁcance of being open-minded. By being open-minded you are also at a place in consciousness wherein “Dial- ation” can be a reality, for you will -l.;“ . Saturday, November 28th, 1936 dial in on the Inspirations that are given, as one has the right or priv- ilege with his radio receiving set to dial in -on the National Broadcasting ‘ "System, or’ dial in‘ on either one of the Systems for conveying Messages through the Ether_ Isn’t that won- derful! These diffe-rent Broadcasting Systems, that convey Messages Ithrough t-he. Ether, they are expres- sions that are for the general pub- .lic, an-d all"Who will to, it is their. privilege to dial in -on them, if they " wish to. Isn’t that wonderful? "DIAL IN ON THESE INSPIRATIONS Those who move spontan-eously and volitional1y,..t’hose who are transmit- ting thoughts from one to another through m-enta‘l telepathy, it is your privilege to dial in on these Inspira- tions and “volitionated” expressions, for they are all Impersonal, if they are coming from the Invisible Realm ‘of the INFINITE ONE, Isn’t that wonderful? It is a privilege to real- ize mankind need not to be ignorant, but all have‘ the privilege to be wise, if they will harmonize with that In- spiration and such “volitionated” ex- pressions that will come through and ‘by individuals who are moving spon- «taneously,——in other words, volition- ally; but if we close the door of our un-derstanding towards them, if we wil-l not be open-minded enough to contact them, we‘will bar the access of this. Grace wherein I stand,-——and you will not be able to come in the Unity of the Spirit, of Mind and Purpose through harmonization, nei- tiher through “Dialation/" but by the realization of GOD’S Actual PRES- ENCE, and by the Spirit of non- selﬁshness, you will, and you can, unify yourself with every inspiration ——in other words, you can very read- ily contact them, for it is your priv- ilege to do so, "as they are Imper- sonal. Isn’t that wonderful? If there is a question of an indi- vidual speaking more scientiﬁcally than I, Myself, as a Person, I delight in seeing that individual come to the surface ex'p‘i‘ess1y. Isn’t that won- derful? though an individual can, and will‘ speak from a ‘Clergy standpoint -of view, as a preacher .more perfectly fnom that angle of expression, than I, Myself, I can rejoice in such an expression, for such an expression is also Impersonal. Isn’t that wonder- If there be a thought as if i ( The “SPOKEN W039’ ful? But if I be narrow-minded be- cause a person maybellooked upon . to be, as it may be termed, “a bet- ter preacher” than I, Myself as a Person, . . _ and if I should try to bar that person from My Considera- tion, or from ,MY actual stressing that person in the considerationlof‘ others, why then, that would be a selﬁsh act on My Part, and I would be barring the “volitionated” expression from ME, and I would become to be non-volitional and also non-inspir—a- tional, therefore, My Inspirations would cease to function, or cease to come forth spontaneously, because I would be desiring to use them self- ishly. I AM talking ab:out...MYSELF. Forthis cause, I -do rejoice. REJOICES TO HEAR MR. JOSEPH SPEAK I will call the question and call to V your consideration at this juncture, in the person of whom you know I AM now speaking,—I rejoice to hear Mr. Joseph speak, and so do you, be- cause he moves volitionally and spon- taneously, because hu-manly speaking, it may be termed from “a clergical” point of view, as a preacher, you know he leaves ME far behind. (“No Sir!” came the sharp rebuking com- ment.) You know he leaves ME far behind. For this cause I can rejoice in it, and if I rejoice in that which is the most perfect in the consider- ation of others, I may be working as far as that is concerned, unselﬁshly,. but if I hold My Mind, or close My Mind and try to bind the volition ‘-and the concept of others concerning the volition of an individual _who may speak perfectly from that angle of expression, then and there, I AM in- culcating-and re-incarnating the spir- it of selﬁshness in ME as an Indi- vidual, of which would put a ban on My Volition and My Inspiration, that might cause ME to speak volitionally and Inspirationally. Oh! that a Heart and Mind might always be discerned;—-each of them as a perfect unselﬁsh expression and as a Sample and as an Example for others. Isn’t that wonderful! in the midst of you is mighty to save. From whatsoever expression the per- fect might be observable, endorse it readily and gladly. By so doing, you will be expressing an expression of unselﬁs-hness. That is why I like to have those to speak, to read, to {tes- tify, or do anything, those Who can, you. GOD I’ Page 5 do it perfectly, who can do a \§7er- fect job of it. , » GOD wants the best, and the est must be presented from every an le‘ V expressible, boeth Mentally, Slpiritu l- ly and LD..’Ea'terially. We must se k the best, for GOD is PERFECTIO That is why we are seeking the be from every angle, that GOD migh be the Expresser "in all of the differ- ‘ ent expressions, and that mankind might recognize HIS PRESENCE now, henceforth and forever, here, there and everywhere, - CHRIST WHO DWELLS WITHIN I believe I have said more than I should have said, as I had the- MESSAGE read that _I might refrain from speaking as a PERSON, for the MESSAGE was the same as if though I had just said it; It is MY» Version, I AM st-ill thinking the same. MY MIND has not yet changed. Isn’t that wonderful! Upon this Foundation if you "will stand, how marvelous it‘ will be with you. As you contact dthe-rs and live in this Recognition, the very Spirit‘ of MY PRESENCE will be with you, giving VICTORY over‘ undesirable c-onditions, for it will be no longer you, as a person,. but it will be ‘CHRIST who dwells within you. HE Who dwells within you, is more than ,all «things that can possibly be against I thank you. Nobel Prize Goes to Prof. Delge I _ ' ' Stockholm, Sweden, Nov. 28th.—+. The Swedish ’ Royal Academy of Science announced here‘ that the annual Nobel Prize for Chemistry, will be presentedto Prof. Peter J. W.. Delge, 42, of Berlin’s Wilhelm Institute fo-r Physics. Prof. Delgw is known for_ his work on the disso- lution of the atomic structure of the molecules of water and the inven- tion of a device that makes it pos- sible to determine the chemicaf structure , of compounds by simply viewing them through a crystal lens. The lens transforms the various component parts into different col”- ors, and these colors, when viewed through the lens, determine Ehe chemical structure.

Early Americans Were Potters Pottery belongs to the’ Neolithic periodf That the early Americans were potters "is evident ‘by the enor- - mous» amount of pottery fragments found in’ all parts of the Ameﬁcan oontinentﬁ ‘ _ p . There is’ little ‘doubt .,that the in- ventionlof pottery was due to. the practice of coating the outside of in- ﬂammable vessels ‘such as gourd ' x rinds‘, wooden bowls,; animal skulls and baskets, with clay to protect 7 1 them from‘ the -ﬁre. When it was found, that the clay not only stood the heat, but was baked hard by it, the ma- terial which the claycovered was dis- carded as needless. , ' ; Basket Weave Type Most pottery found "east of thevMis- sissippi River is of the basket weave type. One person doubtless acted as the potter for"each village. This is -proved by the neatness and likeness’ of all pots and fragments recovered from Adiﬁerent excavations. Weaving from reeds a basket of the desired size and shape, the potter smeared the outside with soft clay, then placed it in the sun to dry. After theclay was bone dry it was placed in a*slow ’ ﬁre to bake,_ the heat burning away the basket, leaving the clay ‘form to be hardened by the ﬁre. Most of "the T clay "pots ’ have‘ round? bottoms that would necessitate a stone or gras ‘v 'nest to keep them upright. ,_ , ~ ,. , The “SPOKEN wonir’ Ground flakes of oyster _or clam shell appear to have been used in making all pottery objects. Perhaps this was because the shell would make the pots stronger, or it was placed in the clay for superstitious reasons. Most of the eastern Ameri- can pottery-has little or no’. orna- mentation except the tracesleft by the basket work. Still this is not al- ways the case, for some pottery jars have a large amount of ﬁnger-nail ornamentation around the’ top, also fancy »holes and marking that had been made with a round reed, but these are very rare ﬁnds. , In an opened mound near the . shores of Lake. Erie many pottery fragments ofthe basket type were found, but the most distinctive ﬁnd was i that of a. pottery ‘frog eﬂigy pipe. In another mound was a pot- tery bird-like effigy. Many bird stones are found, but potter’s birds arevery rare. One of the most ancient and ‘ widespread ‘legends concerningiﬁre is that of the mythical bird, the phoe- nix, which was known to the peoples of Europe, Asia and India. The bird. to ancient man was always a mys- tery_ It was the only iivnig thing in his day that could soar off into the unknown spaces of the sky. Here in America the bird efﬁgies may have been‘ the red man’s tribute to the creatures whom his fancy and fears promotedvfrom ancestors to the rank, of deities.iTo my mindthe American- bird stones and the mythical phoenix display ahigh degree of ancient cere- monial ~ relationship.

To be more specific:-—all the well- khown religions in the World today teach their congregations that if they are good, go to church every day, or every Sunday, pay their church dues, and pray regularly, when they die they will go to “Heaven." Each belief has its slightly different version—one , lspecifying that upon dying, the: per- son must go to, “the other place,” purgatory, for three days before en- tering f‘I-Iea.vevn”——b'ut they all assure you that death and then “Heaven” -are two inevitable steps. “You must die,” they tell you. “Oh sure, we know/that JESUS said that ‘THE GIFT OF GOD IS EVERLAST- ING LIFE,’ but that means ever- lasting life for the soul.” ' Yet in the same Scripture from which they preach, it says: “That which GOD hath joined to- gether, let not man put asunder.” In other .words GOD didn’t com- bine body and soul as just a tempo- rary job~HE meant it to be a per- _manent job! V “A-a.h,'bu.t that’s the literal ver- i_sion’,” the ministers ‘tell you. “GOD didn’t mean it that way, You see, I you don’t understand.” Well, what about the Ten Com- It says, “Thou shalt not commit adultery.” “Now don’t be silly. You’ve got to propagate the race, If we didn't have mankind would’ dwindle away.” And so they go on——alwayS an ex- cuse for every time they go in ab- solute collision with the laws that ‘GOD has sent down to the children of men through the prophets. A They give GOD’:S Words “their own” interpretat-ion. “GOD ~diudn’t mean it that way, HE meant it this lwaylar .: , / , How dare they tell GOD what HE means! They tell you that after you die you will go to “Heaven? Now what do they know about it? Have they ever been to “Heaven?” Has anyone ever produced a signed affadavit de- claring that there was a “Heaven” up in the- sky somewhere? The average minister, priest or rabbi’ doesn’t even know WHO GOD‘ ‘is, much less WHERE GOD is! Have any of them actual proof that their “GOD” is sitting on a golden throne up in some planet about fifty mil- lion miles away? , Maybe they’ve seen HIM through a telescope, Or maybe HE’S written them letters. And they call FATHER DIVINE’S Followers mentally unbalanced! The ministers and priests attempt to teach _the Gospel of JESUS The - CHRIST,’ and they declare HIM to be the Sample and the Example for all mankind. Yet they get married and have children. - ' Did JESUS? They perform wedding ceremonies, Did JESUS ? They take up collections and joy- ously accept donations and offerings in their service to “GOD.” Did JESUS? NO, OF COURSE NOT! But now let's consider FATHER DIVINE. JESUS fe-d five thousand on five loaves and two fishes. FATHER DIVINE, with no visible income, has not only fed hundreds of thousands, but HE has given HIS .-Followers farms and homes and es- tates and manors and mansions and automobiles and clothes and thou- sands of other blessings FREE! JESUS forgave the sins «of: several of His floc-k. I FATHER DIVINE has forgiven the sins of THOUSANDS UPON THOUSANDS 'of HIS FOL- LOWERS! V JESUS cured the blind, the halt, the maimed and the Sick.

HE has fought \I-IIS way through ’FORTY—TWO GENERATIONS, and HE HAS WON THE VICTORY EVERY TIME! 5 FATHER DIVINE has taken mil- ilions of people off of the relief rolls, thus Saving the Government anes- timated 150 million dollars in the past three years. FATHER DIVINE has caused mil- lions to change their habits and ways of living to such degrees, that HIS Followers—and some of them were gangsters, criminals and racketeers of every kind-—would not even as‘ much as smoke a cigarette! HE has changed their very minds! HE has changed their very thoughts! He has done the IMPOSSIBLE by actually TAKING SIN OUT OF THE BODIES OF MEN: AND HE HAS CAUSED MEN AND WOMEN TO BECOME ANGELS! . Meanwhile the priests and minis- ters are raising their eyes to the Skies, and asking their “GOD” for \peace but still the reports come ;through that Europe -is being turned into a battlefield.
