WASHINGTON UFt — Wisconsin’s
Gov. Walter J. Kohler said today
he will become a "favorite son”
candidate for the GOP presiden-
tial nomination unless President
Eisenhower indicates by March 2
that he’ll seek reelection.
Kohler was here for a meeting
of the Governors' Conference high-
way Committee which he heads.
He said in an interview that unless
the President’s plans are known
before the March filing deadline,
he would have to file his own
name. Written consent of the can-
didate is required in Wisconsin.
Gov. William G. Stratton of Ill-
inois, who has been mentioned as
another possible "favorite son” as-
pirant, said he expects to head the
60-vote Illinois delegation. He said
the delegation will be for Eisen-
hower if he is a candidate but
otherwise will “look around.”
On the Democratic side. Gov.
Frank Lausche of Ohio said that
M. Wyatt, J. F. Fulton, Floyd
Powell and grandson, John.
if he becomes a “favorite son”
candidate it won't be with the idea
of preventing Adlai E. Stevenson
from getting the party's nomina-
tion.
Lausche said last night he dors
not know anything about and isn’t
encouraging a wave of praise for
him as a possible Democratic pres-
idential nominee. The talk has
come from Southern Democratic
governors and senators, including
some avowed enemies of Steven-
son.
"I may become a favorite son
to keep the Ohio delegation out of
the hands of the political tosses,”
Lasehe said.
Laushe said that in alluding to
“political bosses” he wasn’t shoot-;
ing at friends of Son. Kefauvor <D-
Tenni who have said they will
enter the senator’s name in the
May 8 Ohio primary.
When the smoke
clears, there’s
nothing left..

WORLDLY OR...
In the study of the Bible one will notice
these Bibical expressions: “old man -
new man; outward man — inward man:
carnal man — spiritual man: mind of
the flesh — mind of the spirit.”
The expressions “old. outward, carnal,
flesh” refer to the world in contrad'st-
inction to the divine or spiritual. The
words “carnal and spiritual” are two
diametrically opposite dispositions.
Persons who are worldly, think, de-
sire, care, strive after, and meditate
upon the world. Their whole mental and
moral activities are upon the gratificat-
ion of the flesh. Many people who seem
to be getting along well are often miser-
able because they will not give up the
world for Christ; yet they know they
should.
The world claims to offer so much.
It charms people; Infatuates them, until
they forget God. Yet it is empty and
vain. One weiman, declining in years,
but who still showed vestages of re-
markable beauty, the daughter of a gov-
ernor in an eastern state - a belle in her
youth - said about the world of society.
"I’ve been all through that. There is
nothing in it,” By her own life she has
only verified what Solomon said: "Let
us hear the conclusion of the whole mat-
ter: Fear God, and keep his command-
ments: for this is the whole duty of
man." (Ecclesiastes 12:131.
Paul the apostle declares, “For to to
carnally minded is death; but to bo spirit-
ually minded is/life and peace." jtRom-
ans 8:6). He continues by showing that
the worldly man cannot please God. The
apostle John said, "Love not the world,
SPIRITUAL
neither the things that are in the world.
Tf any man love the world, the love of
the Father is not in him.” (1 John 2:15).
Paul enumerates the works of the flesh
in the Galatian letter (such as adultry,
hatred, heresies, drunkenness). and con-
cludes by saying that people who do
such things shall not inherit the king-
dom of God, |
But what does it mean to be spiritual?
Some may say it means to be good But
it means more than that. The Spiritual
certainly must lead a elean lift, but to
to spiritual means more than just being
good. It means that one has accepted
the Christ and has obeyed his gospel. Tt
means to follow Christ. Peter declared
to his Lord. "Lo. we have left all, and
, followed thee.”
Paul’s spiritual life caused him by in-
spiration to say, "I am crucified with
Christ: nevertheless I live; yet not I,
but Christ iiveth in me:...” (Galat-
ians B -20 > One is eruceified with Christ
when. he leaves the world. In Romans
6:6. Paul said. "Knowing this, that our
old man” (the term for the worldly! "is
crucified with him . . .” Faith in Christ
and his promises causes one to turn
away from the world; this is repent-
ance. i Acts 17:301. He then is baptized
int<j) Christ for the remission of his sins.
(Acts 2:37. 38; Romans 6:3-5). This
makes him a Christian; he is then spirit-
yal and not worldly. Being in Christ he is
.safe from condemnation. "There is there-
fore now no condemnation to them that
are in Christ Jesus.” (Romans 8:1),
How is it with you? Which side do you
stand on: The Worldly? The Spiritual??
Why not begin nmv to live for Christ!
You have a cordial invitation to attend
the services of the Austin St. Church
of Christ. Listen to the dally radio pro-
gram over KLVT, at 9:30 A. M.
