Hew Hybrids For Various Parts of State
Congress over the past 25
years has delegated judicial
powers to a number of gov
ernment administrative agen
cies and bpards without re
quiring that they observe or
dinary court procedures.
The results are forcing
Congress to review and re
consider procedures followed
by these quasijudicial admin
istrative agencies, such as the
ICC, the FTC, the CAA, the
SEC and others.

How would you like to be

That, of course, would be
extremely unlikely to happen
and if it did the verdict would
be voided by an appeal court.

Thy Will Be Done
l>sson for March S> 1959
A STRANGER to the Christian
religion would be struck by
two things. One is that the church
cherishes much that she does not
un4erstand; and the other Is that
the church loves to remember what
the stranger would think we should
wish to forget.
The .story of
Qethsemane la
one that every
Christian knows.
The first; thyee
gospels &U tell it
in'some detail.
Every- cOmman
ion service be-
giira Mrlth'the
words, "The Lord
Jesus, the mow
night Mv which he was betrayed.. >”
The Ge,thsemane story Is one of
anguish of mind arid soul, a story
of Jesus offering an unanswered
prayer—“let this cup pass.”
There is no doubt about Jesus’
distress la Gethsemane. Matthew,
Hark and Luke all testify to it.
Mark says that Jesus “began to be
greatly distressed and troubled,”
The word Mark uses which is
translated “greatly distressed” in
Mark 14:33 is the. same word he
uses in 9:15 to describe the crowd’s
astonishment when they saw him
after the Transfiguration. It is the
same word also in 16:5 and 6,
speaking of the amazement of the
women at the tomb when they saw
the white-robed angel. It is the em
phatic form of a word used in Acts
9:6 (King James version) to de
scribe Saul’s emotions when
stricken to the ground on the Da
mascus Road. It is a word mean
ing more than surprise; it is shock.
The whole story of Gethsemane
holds right up to this word that
begins it. Jesus prays in such in
tensity that sweat poured from his
forehead like' so much blood. He
describes hxs own feelings as "very
sorrowful, even to- death.” The
church does not remember Jesus
is a man always serene. One of
the early Christian writers speaks
