MoScOW, Dec. 13 — (P)— Estab-
lishment of a provisional govern-
ment of Poland at the next session
of the Polish National council early
in the new year is forecast by
Boleslaw Berut, the council presi-
dent
Weighing his words carefully but
answering every question, the 52-
year-old peasant-born Polish leader
made the announcement during an
hour-long interview yesterday. His
council, which has headquarters at
Lublin, Poland, is in opposition to
the London exile government.
(Various reports have indi-
eated that Russia, which has
sponsored development, will
recognize the proposed Lublin •
regime. The western Allies 1
have dealt with the London
group as the legitimate Polish
government. All efforts to ef- •
feel a union of the two have P
been unsuccessful.). 2
“I believe France will recognize 1
the new Poland because of the tra-
ditional friendship between our
two countries." Berut declared. i J
(Simular unofficial expressions 1
now are being heard in Paris in
connection with the new 20-year
pact signed by France and Russia
during Gen. De Gaulles visit to
Moscow last week).

‘As soon as Poland is fully
liberated parliament will be
chosen by a general election as
the constitution requires,” the
council president said.
His reference to the constitution
was the one adopted in 1921. Berut
and other spokesmen of the Lub-
lin group have frequently empha-
sized that the London government |
draws its authority from the 1935
constitution. In Berut’s words this
constitution “set up a dictatorship."

been heard to speak of him as the
logical first president of a new
Polish republic. Berut replied:
"I am quite a new man in na-

Returns from the sale of furs this

the estimated $4,500 received by
Taylor county trappers last year.

The latter three generally are of a

Last year’s income from furs
was the greatest in recent years,
he said.
Trapping in this section in recent
years has been a sideline with most
persons who market furs. Anyone
who sells furs, no matter what age,
must have a state license. Previous
laws stated persons under 17 could
market furs without a permit.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 13.—(P -
A broad extension of the Adminis-

the application of community pres-
sure upon 4-F‘s, was advocated
Tuesday by a high ranking Selec-
tive Service official.

manager of the wool and mo-
hair department of the Texas
Hide and Metal Co., the only
fur buyers in Abilene, stated.
Although trappers probably will
not get as much as 50 percent of
the amount they received last year.
Canon urged them to continue trap-
ping.

ranchers and farmers but the trap-
pers receive some compensation

ITU Rule Not Fair
CHICAGO, Dec. 13.—(PP)—Repre-
sentatives of the nation’s newspaper
publishers declared today that legis-
lation enacted at the 1944 Interna-
tional Typographical Union conven-
tion “vests in the ITU executive
council the one-sided right to in-
terpret and to abrogate local con-
tracts entered into in good faith by
publishers and local unions."
Repeal or "mutually satisfactory
interpretation” of certain ITU laws
and council resolutions was asked
by the publishers.
The meeting, held In Chicago
Monday and Tuesday, was called by
the American Newspaper Publish-
ers association, the Inland Daily
Press association, New England

ern Newspaper Publishers associa-
tion, and Pacific Northwest News-

GODS WORD
PASTORS IN THE CHURCH
€ Continued)
We have seen that in the New
Testament, which should be our rule
of faith and practice, the terms
“pastors,” "shepherds," "bishops,"
“overseers,” "elders," and “presby-
tery.” all refer to one and the same
class of church officers. Thus if a
man is “pastor" he is also an elder,
bishop, etc. A preacher is not offi-
cially "pastor" of a congregation
unless he has been appointed as one
of its elders or bishops. And no man
should ever be, or allow himself to
be called, ’the pastor,” for the New
Testament teaches a plurality of
pastors or elders in each organized
congregation. The apostle Paul “or-
dained elders (plural) in every
church" on the return trip of his
first missionary journey (Acts 14:-
23), and instructed Titus to "ordain
elders in every city" on the island of
Crete (Tit. 1:5). The Jerusalem
church had “elders” (Acts 15:4, 6,-
23). And when addressing a letter
to the saints In Philippi, he Includ-
ed with them the "elders” Phil
1:1). One church (congregation) is
scripturally presided over by a
plurality of elders, but never a
plurality of churches presided over
by one elder.
The duty of pastors or elders in a
congregation la to exercise the over-
sight (1 Pet. 5:3.. They sustain the
same relation to it that a shepherd
does to the flock: which means that,
they must see that the congregation
is properly led and fed and directed
Everything—the work of evangelists,
deacons, and the memberchip as a
whole—is to be done under their
supervision. They are to direct the
activities of the congregation. They
also watch for the souls of the mem-
bers (Heb 13:17).
