Faith _ Mission children are not found in jook joints, brothels and police courts. Despite the millions we appro- priate for welfare and social work, the situation grows steadily worse instead of better. We stupidly | provide laws, edicts, rules, direc- tives, regimentation and regula- tion, employ inspectors and su- pervisors to do the work that only the individual heart and mind and soul can do—and then wonder why we fail. During the past few years this nation has wandered far from the righteous paths pioneered by our forefathers. We have become hardened and indifferent to the welfare of others as individuals and have turned to the worship of false gods as did the people in the day of Moses. We have set up golden calves in the form of poli- tical boards, bureaus and commis- sions to perform for us the tasks the Creator -placed squarely on our shoulders to the end that we live to witness the “Wrath of God.” Like Christ was crucified ~by an indifferent populace two thou- sand. years ago to satisfy the greed and lust for power of a group of selfish priests and a great poli- tical tyranny, so today, in our midst, yours and mine, the State of Florida is about to crucify Faith Mission. . Despite ‘the: amazing record of twenty-one years of successful op- eration, Faith Mission, because it has not been able to meet every rule, regulation, directive and edict of our State Welfare Board and does not grovel in the dust when the power that was Caesar’s appears in the form of an inspec- tor or supervisor, has been con- demned to death. Fred C.. Markert, founder of Faith Mission. still following the humble teachings of the Master, says simply: “I have done the best I can, the best I know how. If the State wishes to take these children and can do better by ihem, I must accept it as God's will.”"—Sixty-one children, taken from the loving care of a truly Christian home and turned ‘over to the regimentation and regula- tion of a political bureau—— “Forgive them, Father, for they know not what they do.” Bombers prepare to be van- guard of push toward Tokyo.
