Lessons dealing with the mi s' grations of peoples, exiles and cnslavr-.m-ents, in the ancient world have had particular time 5 lincss and interest in these mod- kcrn days when the worst trage dies of racial sufferings and per- 1 secutions have been repeated. It is easy to understand what happened to Jews of old in Egypt and Babylon when we consider what has been happening to Jews in Germany and other parts of 1 Europe. Problems associated with racial minorities, and the ways in which they must be solved, arc strongly emphasized in Bible stories and their lessons have a very real bearing upon life in our present-day., democratic environ ment. What happened to Jews in Ger - many during the past decade con- forms almost exactly to what 5 ' appened to Jews in Egypt in the ' years following the time of Jo ' soph. When Jacob and his com- pany went .down to Egypt, they .: were received with honor, and 'I all went Well for a time. Then ' there aiwiv'a Pharaoh who knew not Josephh: nd trouble began. A I suppose that much of it was as in modern times. The prospcr ' nus Jews evoked the envy of less s prosperous.' less efficient Egyp tians, who, for their nn self interest' and aRit-nndimnen.. made '.royo!" :or the loreigners. It is the thing that has happened ; in Germany, and that would hap- pen anywhere, if bigots, trouble- j makers and rabble-rousers, some- i times taking to themselves t h .' sacred Christian name, had thei.- i way. I In Germany, from prosperity j and prestige, Jews rcuardloss of j Iheir character and achievement! were suddenly plunged in'o per- j 'secution and ruin. Artists, writ ers, musicians, along with unof- fending humble people, were sud denly assailed with hate and bru-' First Prerbylerian Church Sixth and Washington Rev. Mark A.

Even the op pression in ancient Egypt did not compare with this organized hat red and turbulence of twentieth century anti-Semitism. The Jews in Egypt had to make bricks without straw, but Jews in Ger many were not allowed even to make bricks. Their businesses, their very lives, were at stake. Against all such hale, and base treatment of minorities, is the true spirit of Christianity, and of democracy Itself. Joseph had saved and blessed the very Egyp tions who persecuted and op pressed his people. The "foreign ers." whom some in our modern democracies would treat with Hit lerist savagery, have marie their contribulion to the upbuilding and prosperity of our country. In every democratic land, Great Britain, Canada, and the United Stales, the contribution of non-English-speaking peoples, or of peoples of non-English-speaking origin, has been great. The roll of honor is long and large. Two things are neccssaiy if we would avoid the pitfalls that have plunged the world into war, and the hates and prejudices that have produced strife and defeat ed social welfare. To all alike, who live pcaceibly and in law abiding ways, we must (1: as sure the full protection of the law and the rights and privi leges which the state accords: and 2; upon nil alike lay the duty of loyalty to the country Dcrw cracies cannot continue and bt s'rnrg where there is divided al legiance. 6 6 6 Cold Preparations Liquid.
