Jew ish Control in Ind ia The appointm ent of Lord R'eading as Viceroy of B ritish India has given an­ o ther ja r to anti-Sem ites. India was given to .G reat B ritain by a Jew, Ben­ jam in D israeli, who made Queen Vic­ to ria Empress of India. Sir Edw in Mon­ tague, a Jew, cousin of Sir H erb ert Samuel, High Commissioner of Pales­ tine, is Secretary of S tate for India. The B ritish Empire in th e E ast is now gov­ erned by an almost complete Jew ish H ierarchy. The peculiar featu re of it is th a t India contains 70,000,000 Mos­ lem s who have 'a deep prejudice against Jews. Is God m aking way for His pro­ gram? Adventists an d th e Jew s Seventh Day Adventists spiritualize the promises made for th e literal resto r­ ation of Israel to P alestine and some of th e ir papers have recently tried to refu te th e idea th a t th e Jews would again really possess th e ir land. It is h ard to understand how these people can explain away the plain words of prophecy in th e face of th e fact th a t prophecy is being fulfilled before our faces w ith th rilling rapidity. Those who cannot see Scripture fulfilled in the de­ velopments of Zionism in th e last few years m ust be blind. Zionists D isappointed The Jewish T ribune says: “Accord­ ing to a statem en t issued by th e Zionist O rganization of America, th e no rth ern fron tier line of Palestine sta rts ju st south of th e Ladder of Tyre, traverses and includes th e whole of th e Jewish colonies-of Galilee, th e town of Banias, opposite Tyre (site of th e Biblical Dan) and th e Hulah district, including. Lake H ulah and Lake Tiberias. I t leaves

w ithin th e F rench sphere th e whole of th e L itan i River, th e upper sources of Jordan; th e slopes of Mount Hermon and the plains of Ja u lan and H au ran .” This news, is sorely disappointing to the Zionists who had feared th a t th e long negotiations between F rance and -G reat B ritain would leave them w ithout th e te rrito ry about th e head w aters of the Jordan, which is so im po rtan t to the new commonwealth. Dr. Cameron well rem ark s: “The final disposition of the lands of prom ise will not re st in the hands of world diplomats. T h at Jeho­ vah whose word never fails will Himself control th e g reat fu tu re of Israel and of th e ir earth ly inheritance.” A nother Cog Slipped “There has been ano th er disappoint­ m ent to th e Zionists in p articu lar, and to the Jews in general when th e Council of th e League of Nations which m et in Geneva, read th e m andate given to Eng­ land. Instead of the words which were contained in th e original m andate to England th a t ‘P alestine is th e Jewish Commonwealth’ which m eant as much as an independent government, it reads th a t th e Jews may have independent and ‘self-governing in stitu tion s’ in P al­ estine.” -$¡4. . ^*4. m m SEEDS OF SIN Never trifle w ith one sin. I t is like a little cloud which, as a poet has said, may hold a hurricane in its grasp. The next sin you commit may have a m ighty effect in th e blighting of your life. You do not know the stream s th a t may flow from th a t foun tain ; for sin is a foun­ tain— no t a mere act, b u t a fountain of evil.—Andrew A. Bonar.
