POLITICS AND EUSINESS
The most popular sport among
politicians is trying to make the pub
lic believe that all business men are
crooks while all politicians are models
cf virtue. That, at least, seems to be
a fair conclusion from the tenor of
scrap cf the many "investigations"
which have been going on in Wash
ington. Of course, a part of the game
also, is to rhow up the politicians of
tl;e other party as crooks.
That is all well understood among
' politicians as an effective means of
getting votes and power. If they can
convince the average voter that their
party, whichetr it may be, is the only
one composed of honest men, then
they figure they can keep their crowd
i:i olYiee. And if they can make the
voters believe that business men are
r II dishonest, then they stand a.

We wonder how much the politi
cians of either party fool the public
in til. long run. It seems to us that

"A Kingdom Review"
Mathew's is the Gospel of the
Kingdom, and a good review will
consist of the discussion of each les
son, bringing cut its special bearing
cn the kingdom of heaven, as it is
today, and as we expect its glorious
future. The Kingdom of God is the
Greatest going concern in the world;
ether kingdoms have come and have
disappeared, but God's kingdom is
Jtill marching on. in ?p1teof a"flth
tb3tac'C3 thrown tn its way," and all
the opposition it had to overcome.
It is the "stone cut cut without hands
which smote the image upon its feet
. . . and broke them to pieces . . . and
lece.me a great mountain and filled
the whole earth." (Dan. 2:35, 3G).
Lesson I The Kingdom Promoted
by Gifts to the King. Jesus Christ is
the personal representative cf the
Tathcr; to reconcile the world with
himself and make peace between God
and man. Ho came to establish the
kingdom, the rule cf God in man's
heart. Jesus was honored as king by
the shepherds and the wise men, who
pave him kingly gifts. These gifts
saved the child's life, they enabled
the parents to take a trip to Egypt
until the danger was past, and to re
turn to their home town, Nazareth.
Lessen II The Kingdom Triumph
ing Over Evil. The king could not
destrc y the young life: now the ad
versary of the kingdom will try it.
I:: a threefold temptation. Satan
tries t i rust rate the establishing of
the kingdom; the plan of redeeming
the v.-crld from the power of Satan.
A glorious victory for the kingdom.
I cr.so i III The Kingdom Promot
ed by Evangelism. Having been
mira-:lou-ly prcteited in lesson one
and tc:;ted and being victorious in
lessen two, it is now being establish
ed i:t the hearts of men by evange
lism, i. c. the "good news" is being
carried to r.en who in turn must tell
ct!:e:-3 what the Lord has done for
them. Men are called for disciple
ship, to lea in Lew to approach men.
"I will make you fishers cf men."
Thai is the most effectual way to
spread and promote the kingdom.
Lessen IV The Kingdom's Bless
edness. Wherever the kingdom is
established and accepted, blessings
ccme to the pesscr-sor that are un
speakable, they must be experienced.
"I will give him of the hidden man
r.a and will give him a white stone,
and in the stcr.e a new name writ
ten, which no man knoweth, saving
he that received it." (Bom. 2:17).
"Rejoice and le exceedingly glad,
for great is your -reward in heaven."
Lesson V The Sole Authority of
the Kingdom, i. e. Power, Dominion,
Jurisdiction rests in and with God.
He is the author cf cur being; he
will be the preserver. By trusting
God, we will have no anxious care,
but live that care:free life that the
birds enjey; but there is a care en

is to create a rather cynical state of
mind toward all men in public of
fice. The average man has come to
believe that there is no such thing as
honesty in politics, and is concerned
more with what he can get out of it
for himself than with any particular
set of principles.
As to the comparative honesty of
politicians and business men, we
think most folk would rather take a
chance with the standards of honesty
which prevail in business than with
those accepted by public office-hold
ers. Fundamental!, no one class is
more honest than another; each has
its percentage of crooks. But in busi
nes it i?, as Benjamin Franklin point
ed out, the best policy to be honest.
There is little in our political his
tory to suggest that honesty pays a
premium in politics.
:o:
When a person needs a ihfng,
they pay for it whether they buy
it or not. That's an old saying, as
true today as when first coined.
Frosperity is already nearer than
"just around the corner," so don't
put off lonner buying the things
you really need.

render all to him body, soul and
spirit: on this condition we can
claim his protecting care. "How hap
py then my life will be."
Lesson VI The Kingdom's Firm
Foundation is established in man's
cendutt and his reaction to God's
rule. As man complies with God's
demands "do unto others . . . enter
the straight gate . . . bring good
fruit ... do the will of God," he
becomes Cuva-Udtsteajrlfasj ,un mov
able in the grace of Gcd. "Rain,
floods, storms will not destroy his
house. As a wise builder, he built
on the rock that cannot be moved."
Lesson VII The Kingdom's Help
fulness. Jesus helped a publican in
to the kingdom; restored Peter's
mother-in-law to health; cured the
sick with the palsy; forgave sins.
This is Jesus, a "present help in
trcuble." Unnumbered are the bless
ings of the kingdom "without mon
ey and without price."
Lesson VIII The Great Kingdom
Enterprise. A new departure is in
augurated, ambassadors are sent out.
Where Jesus has been alone preach
ing, teaching and healing, twelve are
impowered to do the work and great
success crowned their efforts. When
they returned frcm a missionary tour
they could say: "Master, even the
demons submit to us when we utter
ycur name." "The gates of hell can
not prevail against it."
Lesson IX The Yoke of the King
1cm. It is easy in comparison with
the yoke Satan puts en men. In
Christ's service is joy, peace and sat
isfaction. "In thy presence is ful
ness cf joy." (Ps. 16:11). "My yoke
is easy." (Jesus).
Lesson X The Kingdom's Small
Beginning. Like a mu.stard seed, but
see its growth "greater than the
herbs ... a tree . . . heme of birds."
(a) Jesus alone; (b) twelve; (c)
three thousand at Pentecost; (d) five
thousand a little later; (e) no end
to liia kingdem today. Nothing can
compare with it. It sways the na
tions. When its power is fully de
veloped, it will cover the earth as
the waters cover the deep. Nothing
can stop its onward march because
Gcd is in it. The rulers of the earth
have tried to stop its movements,
but in Ps. 2 what has become of it;
the people better take the warning
cf that Psalm. (Please read it).
Lesson XI Faith in the Kingdom.
Several times we read that Jesus
marveled at the faith people showed.
Peter had faith that he could walk
on tho water like Jesus. The woman
in tho borders of Tyre and Sidon dis
played a faith greater than the Jews.
The centurian believed in absent
treatment, and was rewarded. The
leper says, "If thou wilt, thou canst
cleanse me," and Jesus responds to
faith, saying, "I will; be thou clean."
Millions today live by faith in the
Eon cf God why not you? Have
faith in Gcd." "Be net afraid,, only
believe." (Mark 5:36).
MELLON LIKE ANYBODY ELSE
Andrew W. Mellon, secretary of
the treasur ythrough the Harding
and Coolidge regimes and three years
of Mr. Hoover's term, says that to
submit fact3 concerning his income
tax record to a federal grand jury is
"politics of the crudest sort."-
It may be politics. Certainly the
announcement of such action in the
case of Mr. Mellon, of James J. Wal
ker, former mayor of New York, and
of Thomas S. Lamont of the Morgan
banking firm, is sensational. If noth
ing comes of it, it will ce called poli
tics. A3 for its "crudeness," when
crude politics is played the public is
all the more likely to find it out.
But if Mr. Mellon meant it was
"raw," we do not see that he has
much kick coming. Some years ago
Senator Couzens did net approve the
kind of income tax bill that had come
from the treasury under Mr. Mellon's
sponsorship. He rote the treasury
about it and got answers of the crud
est sort "smart Aleck" they would
have been called in the rural village
of a generation ago. Mr. Couzens
went deeper and it seemed to him an
investigation was needed of the bu
reau of internal revenue. The bu
reau was in charge of a politician;
if was nassins: out refunds to big
wartime taxpayers with what seemed
a free hand. Senator Couzens asked
for the investigation.
Then the treasury department
"cracked down" on Mr. Couzens. He
had paid seven million dollars or
citrht million dollars taxes on the
profits received when he sold his
Ford stock, all the government had
assessed against him. The treasury
suddenly discovered that he ought to
pay $9,455,000 more. With that, of
course, it had to assess all the other
minority stockholders who had sold
out at the same time Couzens did. It
did; the total was over 30 million
dollars.
But the treasury lost its case. In
stead cf collecting 10 millions from
the senator who had dared to ques
tion it, the treasury had to pay back
9S9 thousand dollars to Mr. Couzens.'
Did that prove it the "crudest kind
of politics" to have gone after Mr.
Couzens? Certainly not. We must
suppose that Secretary Mellon was
sincerely prosecuting what he
thought a just claim. Tho result made
the treasury department under the
management of Andrew W. Mellon
look very foolish. But one must sup
pose that, raw as the whole business
looked, it wa,s sjnctVej
But to locric intolM. MfliaqTs taxes'
;as the taxes of Mr. Couzens were look
ed into that's scmethiug .else. Fur
ther, Mr. Mellon says that all income
taxes ever assessed against him have
been paid. So had Mr. Couzens' taxes
been paid. Mr. Mellon cays that the
total of his taxes in the last 20 years
have been more than 20 million dol
lars. What has that to do with it?
From a much smaller income the far
less wealthy Couzens had paid many
millions. The question was whether
h? owed more.
The attorney general may be play
ing politics; if so, the administration
will bear the brunt of it. What the
ordinary man seer-, however, is that
a wail is made because Andrew W.
Mellon is treated as other men are,
instead of being handled delicately
as would befit the "greatest secre
tary of the treasury" since Pittsburgh,
became great.
Yet is o:io cf the most whole
some signs cf the times that men of
means and financial standing are not
reverenced by the government, that.
Mellon and Lamont and Jimmy Wal
ker do not mean something different
from Smith and Jones and Brown.

"See It before you Cuy it"
A Ban on Politics
in Home Owners'
Loan Functions
Senator Ncrrh Wins by a Close
Vote in Insisting: on Observ
ing M?iit Rule.
Washington. By a ,:ngie vole the
senate decreed that politics should
be taken out of the Home Owner's
Loan corporation and then passed an
administration bill to guarantee the
principal of the bonds issued by the
corporation. The amendment to bar
politics in appointment to the cor
poration was adopted by a vote of
40 to CC. Then democrats rallied
their forces and, after a heated de
bale, attempted to reeonsidcr the ac
tion. They finally lost by 35 to 34.
The bill, providing for the govern
ment guarantee of the principal as
well as the interest cf the 2 million
dollars of bonds designed to refinance
home mortgages, new goes to the
house. It was passed without even a
record vote.
While the galleries applauded Sen
ator Norris said the amendment was
needed to block "a stinking mess of
political corruption." Senator Neely,
(d.. W. Va.) called the amendment
"the worst species of humbuggery."
Norris said he offered the amend
ment "at the request cf a part of the
democratic administration who were
afraid, bcause they feared democratic
politicians would tcke political lives
i fthey dared to let it be known
where they stood."
Called Rotten to Core.
Charging the Home Loan corpor
ation was "a poltical machine, rotten
to tho core," Norris said "the man
-elected by Franklin D. Roosevelt to
Jo that job is praying for the adop
tion of this amendment."
He did not mention any names,
"out was apparently referring to John
H. Fahey. chairman of the corpor
ation. "He ii" not thinking, it Is
true, of the man who is hunting a
job." Norris said. "He is thinking of
ike humble home owner who wants
to save his homo, who has lost his
job and had to have the assistance
' the federal government. That is
the man about whom ho is thinking.
He wants machinery based on effi
iency in office, and does not want to
fill the positions with a lot of poli
ticians who car a nothing about the
nurpo.se cf the bureau or what it is
trying to 'nceovplish. but are only
anxious to save-their, own jobs."
Nerriri said if the amendment
were defeated the corporation would
"'income a political machine and
rendezvous of politicians" and "men
like Franklin 1. Roosevelt will be
swept aside."
Neely, who le 1 the move ror recon
sideration, said Norris was a man to
whom America was more indebted
than anyone but Washington. Jeff
erson and Lijioin, but that the
amendment was "the worst species
of humbuggery .ever practiced on the
American people."
He complained that republicans
held many government posts in West
Virginia, and said under the Norris
amendment the corporation would be
100 percent republican in West Vir
ginia. "Let's not prove ourselves to be
bigger jackasses than we are." he
said, adding that the corporation bad
sent a republican to West Virginia to
investigate affair.; there and that the
investigator had recommended the
dismissal of the democratic head of
tha organization in that state.

COURT DECIDES WHEN
DEBT IS NOT A DEBT
The lay mind may never under
stand the niceties of reaso l and hair
splitting that dictate seme court de
cisions, but it does understand the
blundering of lawmakers, and per
haps agrees with Grant, who said
in his first inaugural address: "I
know no methods to secure the re
peal of bad or obnoxious laws so ef
fectual as their strict construction."
Which is by way of explaining the
United States circuit ccurt of appeals
decisions in the celebrated Donnelley
income tax case at Chicago.
Reuben H. Donnelley suffered busi
ness reverses with a partner in 1905,
and his creditors forced him through
bankruptcy. He won a dismissal of
the proceedings by buying up all the
claim? at 26 cents on th? dollar. But
he did not consider his debts paid.
Instead, he turned to the repair of his
fortune. He laid aside his savings
until, in 1927, he wa3 able to find
all his old creditors, and to pay each
in fulj. 'He paid $273,54 4,135, of
which $135,S56.53 was interest. He
deducted this payment from his in
come tax return for 1927. Two years
later ho died.
The internal revenue department
declined to allow the deduction. Its
decision was upheld by the board of
tax appeals. And now the federal
circuit court has sustained the gov
eminent again. The tax collectors
maintained that the payment was a
gift. The courts agree that it was.
They declare that his debts were set
tied when the bankruptcy proceed
ing was dropped. Neither Donnelley
nor his creditors thought so. Unless
the decision is reversed by the su
preme court, Donnelley's heirs will
have to pay $68,439 in taxes on the
"gift."
Probably the court felt that to call
the absolved liabilities growing out
of ths old failure debts in fact would
be to undermine the purpose of the
bankruptcy law. Eut it is probable
that nearly any jury of 12 men would
declare that Donnelley had carried
the forgiven obligation In his mental
audit as debts', paid them as debts,
and by paying them earned the peace
that he enjoyed in the evening of his
life. Certainly no citizen takes pride
in his government'3 maintenance by
such taxes nor In a succession of con
gresses that found no way to spare
the people the Btigma cf the exaction.
