(m:- of the reasons why interest is
not being paid on the foreign debts to
the United States is that the Admin-
istration has discontinued the prac-
tice of lending more money to the
debtor nations for interest payment
Official Treasury corres-
pondenceAin the spring of 1919 shows
that money was turned over to cer-
tain foreign governments for the spe-
cific purpose of providing them with
funds from which to make interest
payments on money previously bor-
'rowed.

The communists of Russia have
sent a lot of money to the i’nitcd
States for bolshevistlc propaganda
purpose. but the, effect of it is more
than counterbalanced by the results
of communism in Russia. The ex-
ample speaks louder than the words.
Even Emma Goldman can not stand
the practical consequences of her
own teachings.

The pastor spoke of the “Republic
of God.” The ideal of a republic is
shortly put in the rally cry of the
French Revolution "Liberty. Equality.
and Fraternity." And these are the
marks of God's rule over men. He
does not. force his dominion on the
hearts of men. he rules by the consent
of the governed. He rules in those
who freely elect him the Soveriegn of
their hearts and wills. Amidst the in-
describable horrors of war men ask-
ed "Is there perhaps after all no God?
If there is Why does he not stop this
awful carnage ?" They asked that be-
cause‘théy had supposed that God
rules over men as. an absolute mon-
arch able to do as he Wills. But God
is not an absolute monarch. It is men
who rule the world of human affairs.
not‘God. God rules in human affairs
when. where and in so far as men
chose that he shall rule. He himself
has made it so. He has put into the
hands of men the imperial power of
thwarting even his own purposes. And
when we understand that the evils of
the world are not God's work but the
work of men who refuse consent to his
government. and that they will go on
until all men elect him of their free
choice the Sovereign of their souls. we
shall have a. truer understanding of
the situation. The almighty power of
God in human life is not the power
that under its iron heel crushes out
opposition to itself by force. but is the
power of a llesistlcm Lovewhich men
cannot go on forever flouting and
heating in the face. but to which they
must ultimately yield. And to him

but in adoration and free allegiance.
