Comment on the Day's News By FRANK JENKINS YP YOU are one o! the common people, as nearly all of ' us are, here la a thought (or you (or thla Easter Sunday, which commemorates the rlae from the tomb of Jesus, after His crucifixion: The coming cf Jesus was the real beginning In this world of some mea sure of consideration for the rights and the welfare and the day-to-day happiness of the common, ordinary run of human beings. ' OEFORE the coming of Jesus, the - common men was an unconsid ered trifle . In the affairs .of this world, which were carried on chiefly for t,he benefit and glory of the great. What was Macedonia? tt was Philip, or Alexander. It wasn't at all the lowly Macedonian who tolled and died that Philip and Alexander MIGHT BE GREAT. What was Egypt? It was the Pha roah, for whose glorification the masses sweated beneath the lash of Uit overseer In the building of the Pyramids, and were left to die when their atrength failed. What mattered the common man In those days? NOTHING AT ALL! I CAME then the birth of Jesus, and some 30 years after His birth He went forth one day upon the high way. I( you know your Bible, you have read what happened that day. It Is told thus: "There came one running and kneeled to Htm, and asked Him: Good Master, what ehall I do that I may Inherit eternal life? And Jesus ssld unto him: Why callest thou me good? There la none good but one: that la, God. Thou knowest the commandments: Do no commit adultery: Do not kill; Do not steal; Do not bear false witness; Defraud not; Honor thy father and mother. And he answered and said unto Him: Master, all these things have I observed from my youth. Then Jesus, beholding him, loved him and said unto him: One thing thou lackest; go thy way, sell whatever thou hast and give to the poor, and thou shalt have treasure In heaven; and come, take up the cross and follow me. And he was sad at that saying and went away grieved, for he HAD GREAT POSSESSIONS." LET us read on: "And Jesus wentround about and aalth unto his disciples: How hardly shall they that .have riches enter Into the kingdom of Godl And the dlsclplea were astonished at Hla words. But Jesus answered again, and sslth unto them: Children, how hard la It for them that trust In riches to enter Into the kingdom of Godl It Is easier (or a camel to go through the eye of a needle U.aa for a rich man to enter Into the king dom o( God." THE rich men 'of Jesus' day, you see, and of all the world before His day were with few exceptions the great onea of the earth for whom the earth existed. This doctrine that the rich and the great might be wrong waa Indeed a revolutionary doctrine) nnHIS doctrine waa RESENTED, as might be supposed, by the rich and the great and the privileged and In a little while the promulgator of It waa crucified upon the cross. But the doctrine that Jesus pro mulgated thla doctrine that the world does not exist for the exclu sive glorification of the rloh and the great, but for the common aa well did not die. It went on down through the ages, gaining atrength as It went. n IT GAINED strength very slowly. You have read, for example, In this column that the king of France who ordered hla men-at-arms to shoot a poor workman laboring upon a roof, and laughed uproariously at the spectacle of the dead body roll ing clumsily down and thudding lifeless upon the hard ground. That was a long, long time after the birth of Jesus and His subse quent crucifixion. BUT It grewl Among our own ancestors, its growth was signalled by Wat Tyler'a rebellion; by the marching feet of Cromwell's men. j In a later day. In France, the de scendant of those same common people who stood by helpless and watched one of their number shot upon a roof by a ribald king's man-at-arms rose In their anger and their mlg.1t and bloodily did away with kings.

Easter Brings Hope, Joy To Trouble-Worn World (By the AMW'lnfed Press) Across a world trouble-torn and dark with economic woea, Vie Ester message of Joy and hope flashed to all Christendom at sunrise today. In cathedrals and cottages of many landSi Cloudy skies were the predicted greeting In many cities and rain threatened the usual display of fin ery. The bells of Rome's 400 chtirrhea yesterday at noon pealed the end of Lents 40 days of fasting and peni tence.

HOPEWELL. N. J., March 26, (AP) The nation-wide .hunt for Harry Fleischer and Able Wagner, "known kidnapers," waa Intensified today aft er a rum runner told a representa tive of Col. Charles A. Lindbergh he thought they were the men he saw March 2 on a boat on which a baby also was a pasaengcr. The unidentified man appeared at the famous flyer's estate early today, refused to talk to state police, and said he would give hit information only to Colonel Lindbergh or his rep resentatives. Sure They're Men Wanted He told those who talked to him he was sure the two men on the boat were Fleischer and Wagner. He said lie Identified them after being shown pictures of the pair being sought. Col. H. Norman Schwarzkopf, state pohce superintendent, said the man Imparted his Information "without any member of the police department being present," but that official In vestigators later were given the sub stance of his remarks. The rum runner la the same man who early this month told the coast guard of his encounter with the mys terious boat 25 miles at sea the day after the Infant Charles Augustus Lindbergh, Jr., was stolen from his home here. The men asked for a compass, he explained, but when a baby who was below deck chled the craft sped away.

HEAVY PAYMENT IN TAXES MARKS E Brisk payment of 1031 taxes, con tlnuea In the tax collecting depart ment of the sheriff's office and In elude payment of back taxes. The taxes became payable February 14 and the Interest penalty starts In May. LaM Monday, with collections of close to toooo. waa one of the largest days In months. The work Is facilitated by the fact that the tax collection department received the tax rolls from the assessor's office earlier than usual. Preparing of the tax state ments was consequently hastened. Two or three reasons are advanced for the tax payments, which gener ally atart ten days before the final date, to end In a ruah. One theory la that the appeal of President Hoover against hoarding. Is finding a re sponse, another la chariness of In vestments, and another la that peo ple, regaining confidence, are making tax payments aa a sign of returning normalcy. Appearance of property on the delinquent tax list Is another reason advanced. Another rosy sign la that auto own ers are buying quarterly licenses with more alacrity than last year.
