The early churehjiad more martyrs in proportion to its membership, but if the record is ever completed covering our own generation it will show the greatest number of Christian martyrs the world has ever known. Concentration camps, electric-heated ovens, the sunrise firing squad, and Siberian plains have taken the place of sword and tar and beasts. We thought we had made great progress in civilization, and that martyrdom could not be in our day.

But it Isame, and greater than ever before. Tolstoy's Russia and Luther's Germany were the greatest sinners. "It could not happen hrre." Well, maybe not; let's hope not. But if in Germany the people had been told 50 years ago that their children would be put to death simply because they are Christians and will not deny th truth they would have exclaimed, "Impossible."

Tennessee School of Religioa University of Tennessee "LOYALTY UNDER PERSECUTION" (Revelation REAL ESTATE COVENANTS Few cases coming- before the Supreme Court have evoked so deep and r0 widespread interest as those on which arguments were scheduled to begin yesterday. They concern the constitutionality of. real estate "covenants," which specify what races may and may not own or occupy real estate in areas covered.

Two of the present cases arose in the District of Columbia. Negroes had bought homes in a locality restricted to whites by terms of covenants. The covenants and the eviction of the Negro owners were upheld by the lower court. The two other cases, one from Detroit and one from St. Louis, have a similar background.

Many associations not directly involved in these cases have intervened in themas "ariiici friends of the court. Another intervening iarty is the Justice Department, which has announced itself as opposed to real estate covenants and which 'will be represented by the new Solicitor General, Philip B. Perlman. Private real-estate covenants exclude Negroes from the "better" residential areas in practically all cities of the United It is estimated that 80 per cent of the area of Chicago is thus; barred to ncm-whites and Jhatjn.

OF ITALY All Allied soldiers, including of course the Americansare supposed to be out of Italy by midnight of Sunday, -Dec 14, under the terms of the peace treaty on Italy which went officially into effect on Sept. 15. Once the Allied forces are out, the Italian Communists can be expeted to raise even more juerrv hell than they have been raising.

But the three occupying countries are limited to 5,000 men each. Last Wednesday a State Department press official was asked what would happen if the Italian government should ask the American troops to remain beyond Dec. 14. 1 le answered "That would he another matter entirely." When then asked if a delay in withdrawing the troops under those cicumstances would be legal under the treaty, the State Department man refused to answer.

At all events, the United States will probably try to find legal ways and means to keep within striking distance of Italy enough troops to deter the Communists front acting to take over control of Italy.

His feet are pn the silver sands of the Aegean Sea, and it is the hour when thought is born. The sunset is casting long shadows of the mainland across the ocean, and John, a martyr in exile, is taking a walk with God in the cool of the evening. His heart takes its flight back to where his flock is, and from there takes its flight to heaven where his Saviour is. And what is that? It is the wind playing with the sand upon the shore No, it is a voice.
