The spiritual ideals upon which this nation was based, through its Discoverer, the Norseman Leif Ericson, in the year 1000; through its founder, George Washington, in 1776, and through its preserver, Abraham Lincoln, in 1865—these spiritual ideals can never be voiced through a song whose music was not written by an American, but was borrowed from a ribald; sensual drinking song, “Anacreon in Heaven,” and whose words express vicious hatred of our natural brother and Anglo-Saxon comrade, Britain. Never has Congress, .and never will Congress, legalize an anthem which sprang from the lowest qualities of human sentiment. God forbid it. Americans to-day are awaking to the evil influence exerted upon their children, as well as upon themselves, by “The Star-Spangled Banner,” poem born of intense hatred of Great Birtain and wedded to a barroom ballad composed by a foreigner, For example consider the sentiments expressed by the third verse: “And where is that band who so vauntingly swore That the havoc of war and the battle’s confusion A home and a country should leave us no more? Their blood has washed out their foul footsteps’ pollution No refuge could save The hireling and slave From the terror of flight or the gloom of the grave. Do these phrases fittingly express the spirit of America, the nation to whom the longing world looks to-day for moral and spiritual Leader- ship, with Christ at the head? Shall we shout, in violent, unsmgablc ca- dences, of “the rockets’ red glare, the bombs bursting in air,” and refer s to-day to our democratic partner in Anglo-Saxondom,—Great Britain,— as “the foe’s haughty host,” which “in dread silence reposes”? Shall that “carnal mind,” which St. Paul declared was “enmity against God,” and which has ever opposed the progress of enlightenment and truth, be longer allowed to express its qualities of hate, sensuality, and bloody violence, through “The Star-Spangled Banner”? $hall such seeds be planted in the budding minds of America’s school children? God forbid! The spirit of America is not suitably expressed by hatred, nor by the horrors of war, which all nations to-day are praying may be abolished. America’s national anthem, which should be composed as well as written, by Americans, should express the same noble animus as that which Washington voiced, when he said, “Let us raise a standard, to which the wise and honest can repair; the event is in the hands of God,” and by Lin- coln, when he uttered the high resolve that “this nation, under God, shall have a new birth of freedom; and that government of the people, by the people, for the people, shall not perish from the earth.” The work to be accomplished in this hour is a transccndent one, Pagan idolatry can never be enthronedin America. The effort to do this {s being vicorously assailed by Christ, the “King of kings and Lord of lords.” The government was, is, and always will be upon His shoulder. The downfall of European autocracy, which has striven to its utmost to trail in the dust America’s spiritual standard, Again we affirm, America was founded upon spiritual ideals. is becoming apparent. Christ, at His second appearing, through His representatives, has planted His stand- ard of spiritual dominion on the soil of the United States, and He is ever- present to defend it. The end of the reign of ignorance, superstition, serfdom, and allegiance to any foreign ruler has come. Every knee shall bow and every tongue shall confess the spiritual fact in regard to Amer- ica. Christ, at His second coming, has forever established His kingdom on earth. He has ordained His disciples of the twentieth century, who are proving that their power is in the exercise of spiritual dominion, with which God endows His children, wha obey His law of Truth and Love, From the pages of America’s historic record, “The Star-Spangled Banner” is to-day being erased, by fiat of God. Inits place will be revealed ‘America’s true national anthem, written and composed by Americans, pen- ped by, Christly inspiration and illumined with spiritual light. Augusta E. Stetson. USE OF RADIO COMPASS REMOVES SEA-FOG PERIL Navigator Enabled Almost Instantly to Place Vessel—Invaluable in Rushing Aid to Distress. duction of this instrument. By {ts use the navigator is able almost in- stantly to place himself and vessel, getting not only his bearings, but the exact position of his ship as well. The value of this service in the sav- ing of human life is almost incalcu- able and justifies in itself all the expenditures that have been made in developing radlo. Practical results from the use of radio by the Amer!- can marine may be gathered from the fact that the only radio-equipped vessel ever unaccountably lost was the f{ll-fated Cyclops, which disap- peared while on a trip from a South American port to the United States '«mrlng the war.

S. or distress calls has long been familiar to the public, but the introduction of the radio By its use it is operators at the coastal radlo sta- tions. most of which are maintained by the N to keep in close touch with a dozen or more different vessels at the same time, and, by knowing their respective positions, afert col- lisions or send aid to any one of the ships that may be in trouble. These operators are all trained radlo com- pass men, and they keep in constant training by continually taking bear- ings and plotting positions of ships at sea when the ships use their erh transmitters and whether the ships request bearings or not. Ships that do not ever suspect danger are fre- quently warned of impending peril as the result of the watchfulness of these men. The radio compass consists of a spe- clal type of radio receiver equipped with a vacuum tube detector and amplifiers, with s rotating ooil in- cluded in the ofrcult. Hew It Is Operated. When the rotating ooil is revolved by hand the strength of incoming radfo signals is found to be at a maximum when the plane of the ooll windings is parallel to the direction of ether wave travel, and the incom- ing signals are found to be of mini- mum, or zero, strength when the Dlnena off the '.o‘tl)" :lnfllnn 18 90 de- £rees from the direction of w!lrvlnt“rlv.l‘ gioder o oofl s rotated completel: through 360 degrees two mlllr:l. fll’l be found and also two minima.

With such a servioe this accident could have been avolded. It is during just such conditions as provailed at this time, when heavy fogs are present or during periods of extreme low visibility, that the radio compass proves its worth. At such times it has the fleld to it- self as a navigational aid, because it is the only known medium by which 2 ship can obtain 2 bearing or learn its true position and bring assurance to a harassed navigator. Although the Navy’s radlo compass service has been in operation only about thres vears, it has aiready be- come to be relied upon by the marine services generally to such an extent that it is now, regarded as an indls- pensable service even during normal weather condldtions.
