to its interests. As a result,
many times in the past, the
house labor committee was by-
passed and labor legislation ori-
ginated with other house com-
mittees. For instance, the Smith-
Connally act came out of the
military affairs committee.
Just before congress re-
cessed nil nllfiii|it was marie
to end the heiirings, and
move the president's pro-
posed I'aet-finding liill out
for a vote. The attempt
failed primarily liecause of
tlie opposition of pi-o-laimr
law makers.
But since the president’s
speech, the situation lias chang-
ed. Here, too, it is not clear whe-

Mr. and Mrs. W. H. Thompson,
that lie is now stationed with an
Army Crash Boat Unit at Be"
that the increasingly serious
strike situation had much to do
with the changed aMtiudc. Now,
although the hearings will be
resumed, an effort will be made
—at least in the house — to
cut them short.
Two congressmen have added
their support to the president’s
appeal, at least to get the bill
out to the floor for a vote.
Representative Hook, Demo-
crat of Michigan, considered to
be a strong union supporter,
says lie will vote to report the
Dill out, although he i o|iosed
to it. and probably will vote
against it on the floor. And the
acting chairman of the commit-
tee, Representative Randolph of
West Virginia, also considered
pro-labor, has publicly endorsed
tlie fact-finding hill or a similar
one since the president’s speech.

In China the ail-party political
consultative council is preparing
to study the agenda for future
meetings, aimed at achieving
lasting peace in China. And des-
pite charges and counter-charges
of truce violations, both national
and communist spokesmen seem
optimistic about the council's
proceedings.
Besides the 38 delegates
to the eouneil, Cliumjkiag
had a very special visitor to-
day. It was the famed leader
of the Flying Tigers — Gen-
eral Claire Chennanlt —
back in China ns a civilian.
What Ids mission was, Chen-
■limit would not say — ex-
cept that he is studying post
wiir aviation.
But in Shanghai, 20,(XX) Chin-
ese students have staged a dem-
onstration protest against the
presence <>f American soldiers in
China. The BtudenU inarched
through the streets shouting to
idl Gl's — "why don't you go
home?”
Military authorities have re-
leased the name of that Amer-
ican soldier sentenced to death
by an army court martial for
killing two Japanese civilians.
He's Private Joseph Hlcswa of
Lodi, New Jersey. They also say
Hlcswa’s sentence will be re-
> jewed by higher authorities.
He's convicted of stabbing to
ileath two Japanese civilians
| just before he was to have left

“Though we to- an angel
from heaven, should preach
unto you any gospel other
than that which we preach-
ed unto you, let him lie ana-
thema." Galatians l:H.
Here is a terrible curse placed
upon the person who preaches
another gospel. This column sug
gested to you yesterday that you
ask your preacher where the
New Testament says a sinner Is
justified, or saved by “faith only”
or “faith alone.” In James 2:2).
But this passage: “Ye see then
how that by works a man is jus-
tified. and NOT by faith only."
Now this Is a contradiction of
some popular preaching. If the
Bible teaches that a sinner is
Justified by faith only in one
place and that he is NOT justi-
fied by faith alone in another,
there is a contradiction. But the
Bible does not contradict itself,
it is all truth, anil truth does
not contradict. To preach that a
sinner is justified by faith only
means that he i« justified by
faith to the exclusion of every-
thing cl e It means lie docs not
have to do anything but merely
telievc in order to be Justified
Such teaching repudiates the
affirmations of even Jesus Christ
