Rev. Dr. Bonrlell At Trinity Ghurch‘

The statement that there is do defence against the etc-mic bomo

is a false statement. the Rev. D1‘

J. S. Llonnell, pastor of the Fifth Avenue Presbyterian Church, New

York. told a capacity congregation;

at ystcrday morning's service in ‘Llrinity United Church.

Taking as his text, "Not by might nor by power. but by My spirit, saith the Lord" (Zechariah

4:6), Dr. BonnelLsald many men hag become so lost in ad-miration at the progress of science that they had decided God was no long- er necessary irl the direction of their lives-that Man's could well be loft to Man alone be- cause of the wonders which Science was opening for his benefit.

But the problem which Manhad provcn unable to solve was haw to control for his happiness and wel- fare those inventions which were now being only used to acatter death and devastation.

One atom bomb had killed 100.- 000 melt. women, and children in lli-roshima and bomb-carrying jet planes. now travelling slightly slow- er than the speed of wund. could not be followed 1n their flight by- the human eye.

The defence against the atom bomb was the spirit of God in the hearts of (men and not Man's de-

pendence upon his own might and]

power. Only that spirit of God working in the hearts of men could prevent strife and discord and render impossible the recurrence of other and more devastatinll

destiny .

Will Be Given Trial As Self-sustaining Labor Publication

GLACE BAY, Sept. 14 — (015)- lt was reliably learned tonight that the Glace Bay Gazette. only union- operated daily newspaper in Can- ada. will be given a trial as a self- sustalning labor publication and will no-t be sold to private interests.

In a referendum among the 13.- 000 miners of District 26 United Mine Workers (C.C.L.) the vote was 2-1 against continued financing of the paper.

He also said he felt certain that “outsiders of anti-labor m'nd" who had shown "considerable interest" in the purchase of the paper “may be disappointed."

This country is retreating from the modest relaxations permitted dnring the last couple of years to a policy of government direction as stiff as that of wartime.
