All I know is what I mod in the papers—Will Rogers
The Minister Speaks
"Follow peace with all men
and holiness without which no
man shall see the Lord"
Heb 12:14
The text we have chosen is
consistent with the general
scriptural practice of uniting
the two great elements of re-
ligion in close proximity—peace
with men and holiriss with God
In the Ten Commandments
there are four commandments
that rest upon one's funda-
mentcal obligation to God and
6iX which rest upon his essen-
tial obligation to his fellow
men When Jesus made a sum-
mary of law he likewise took
knowledge of the two sections
and interpreted the substance
as love to God as supreme and
love to neighbor as equal
To follow peace with men is
to follow in the ways of right-
eousness as it relates to all o-
ther finite beings and in this
wide reach peace with men in-
volves all the obligation of the
moral law as it respects pri-
vate and private dealings with
individuals and with society It
was in this view that the early
Presbyterians mended a place
In the Reformation fence by
contending that inward holiness
and outward righteousness are
Inseparably bound together in
the truly antstian life
Mathew Henry says—Since
this is God's design it ought to
be the design and concern of
His children that with renewed
strength and patience they may
follow peace with all men and
holiness

"HOLINESS"
't
Peace and Holiness are con-
nected together There can be
no true peace without holiness
There may be prudence and dis-
creet forbearance and a show
of friendship and good will to
all: but this true Christian
peaceableness is never found
separate from Holiness We
must not under pretense of liv-
ing peaceable with all men
leave the way of holiness but
cultivate peace in a way of
holiness
The Master himself said in
Mathew 5:8—"Blessed are the
pure in heart for they shall
see God"—No man can see God
without holiness but with it
any man can see God But if
it is not holiness as a doctrine
and not holiness as a mode of
conduct what is that holiness
which no man shall see the
Lord? There remains but one
possible ansewer and that is:
It is holiness of heart—holi-
ness as an experience in the in-
ner personality To be holy
means to be free from sin and
holiness means to be free both
from the guilt and the defile-
ment of sin Holiness is to the
soul what health is to the body
In fact health and holiness
come from the same Angal-Saxon
root and both mean sound-
ness and wholeness "Follow
peace with aU men and holi-
ness without which no man
shall see the Lord"

Delays in court actions in- 1
volving legislator-lawyers have
come up or attack again This
happens every other year when
some legislators exercise a
lprivilege granted to attorneys
who are members of either the
house or senate Me law makes
it mandatory that a Mge grant
a continuance in any civil or
criminal case where a legisla-
tor is a party when asked to do
so The idea is that legislative
duties do not permit time to
'prepare a case or appear in
court on schedule
f Sen Fred Harris Lawton an
attorney himself has introduc-
ed a bill which would eliminate
the mandatory provision and
leave such continuances to the
"Sound discretion of the court" i
He reports that his bill is de- I
signed "to prevent abuse" in
the granting of this speolal priv-
ilege to lawyer lawmakers
Some lawyers have criticized 1
the present law saying that 1
anyone who wants to delay go-
ing to trial can hire a legislatively-exempt
attorney and stay
out of court for at least six
months during the sessions It
is probably true that the mand-
atory lever on the judge per-
mits abuse It is not law to re-
fuse legislator-lawyers some I
consideration in the setting of
trials They have serious pub-
lic duties Injecting an extra
lawyer into a case who hap-
pens to be a legislator is the
cause behind such diennial crit-
icism Anti-big city legislation is
popping up almost daily in both
houses At a recent hearing on
resctricting annexation by cit-
ies the larger cities received
important support from dram-
bers of commerce and city
councils in some of the smaller
towns Critics of Oklahoma Cit-
y's annexation drive want to
require that certain services
must be provided the added ar-
eas within a limited time
These include fire and police
protection at some minimurn
standard as well as street wa-
ter sewer and other usual serq:
vices Such a bill must satds-
fl the wishes of so many dif-
ferent communities that senior
legislators give it small chance
of passage this session
Another attack on the big
cities is being led by Sen Walt
Allen of Clicasha He is author
of a bill to require votes by the
A SERVICE OF THE OKLAHOMA PRESS ASSOCIATION
Interpretations expressed hereunder ore those of the writer and not
necessarily those of this newspaper or the Oklahoma Press Association
la ekstock
Ipublic on municipal trusts
Allen says that the public
has been disenfranchised when
it is not allowed to vote on
trusts set up by city councils
It's a vexing problem for pro-
gressive groups in many cities
to see bond issues voted down
time and time again People
either shy away from the higher
taxes such improvements bring
or object to personalities who
are promoting them That's
why several communities a-
round the state have turned to
the trust method Oklahoma
City is not the only one and
Iwas not the first to do so
The Allen bill had been in his
committee for three weeks
I without request for a public
Iheaning when he called it up
I Objections wore voiced by some
'senators so it will now be set
for hearing Allen charged that
!trust promoters are working
)hard to defeat any change call-
1 ing for public vote on such
matters It seems certain that
this will be another hotly de-
' bated piece of legislation with
isenators being urged by bond
buyers contractors and some
chambers of commerce to sup-
port the Allen act while dis-
organized taxpayers will in-
! sist on the right to vote on all
capital improvements by cit-
las towns and other divisions
of government
Betting on dogs and horses
stirred up the legal advisory
committee of the house of
representatives last week A
public hearing was held to give
those for and against pari-mutuel
betting a chance to state
their views Horse fanciers
praised the sport of kings said
the bill by Rep Virgil Tinker
(Fairfax) would encourage 0-
klahoma's horse industry and
produce a new source of tax
revenue for the state
All sounded rosey until the
preachers told how sinful it
was to bet and how some pea-
ple witil big dreams a little
income land poor judgement
might hang out at the tracks
and lose theie money on the
dogs and horses All of which
would cause many a child and
mother to go hungry while papa
played the ponies The Sooner

(formerly the Urdted Drys) did-
n't waste any time condemning
the Tinker bill as a theat to the
moral and economic health of

sides passing a resolution a-

fight it with all their might
But Tinker is ready to let the

the pinch to finance roads

later and Tinker will be wait-
