*o -w ur oy, u iust e T - ixe Miceigon Doily Low, mniddle-income tax relief supported From Wire Service Reports WASHINGTON - A last-minute compromise aimed at providing greater tax relief to low- and middle- income Americans was offered yester- day with the support of the Carter ad- ministration and apparently of House Speaker Thomas O'Neill. The proposal, sponsored by Reps. James Corman (D-Calif.) and Joseph Fisher (D-Va.), would result in a greater tax cut for persons earning up to $50,000 a year than would a bill ap- proved last week by the House Ways and Means Committee. IN ADDITION, it would cut back sharply in the capital-gains tax relief that was approved by the committee. "This proposal is an effort to develop an alternative to the . . . Ways and Means bill that would be more in line with the traditional Democratic position on tax reduction and capital gains," Fisher told a news conference. Treasury Secretary Michael Blumen- thal told a news conference the plan put forward by Fisher and Corman was a no, i i "significant improvement" from the House Ways and Means Committee bill. "WE WHOLEHEARTEDLY support this constructive effort," Blumenthal said. The House is scheduled to take up the tax-cut billnext Thursday. According to Treasury Department figures, the bill approved by the Ways and Means Committee would provide a $62 tab cut in 1979 for a four-member family earning $10,000 and having deductions of 23 percent of income.

However, the further we go along the more appropriate we think the above one is. It not only fits any situation that arises, but also taken with its context explains it, giving causes, warnings of judgment and curse, and pointing the way to blessing and safety. "WHY DO THE HEATHEN RAGE" is the opening words of the Second Psalm of God's Book, The Bible. God asks this question. God answers this question. Believe it or not, this is the God you will have to meet and give account of the deeds done in the flesh when your spirit leaves the body and returns to God who gave it "The heart in your bosom is a 'muffled drum' beating a march for you to the cemetery,"and to the appointment the Almighty has made for you to appear before His judgment seati God commands His people and witnesses to warn men: "PREPARE TO MEET THY GOD - WHETHER ANY HEAR, OR ANY FORBEARS" Webster says a heathen is "one who does not believe in the God of The Bible," and this fits in with what God Himself says in this Psalm: "People who imagine a vain thing, kings and rulers who set themselves against God, His King, His Government and His Ten Commandments."The results of this rebellion is God's laughter, God's derision, God speaking in wrath, and URCH OF CHRIST vd.

FOR THE $15,000 family of four, the $77 reduciton in the committee bill would be raised to $229. At $20,000, the reduciton would be $228 instead of $146; at $25,000, $308 instead of $232; at $30,000, $423 instead of $304. The new proposal would raise to $8,888 the amount of income a person may earn and pay no tax. Under current law, the limit is $7,200; the committee bill would raise that to $7,400. The Corman-Fisher bill would cost $18.1 billion in 1979, compared with $16.2 billion for the Ways and Means Committee bill. All the additional cost, plus $300 million saved by allowing a smaller reduction in capital-gains taxes, would be earmarked for larger individual tax cuts. "We help those at the lower end by increasing the tax credit from $25 to $100," Fisher said. Corman stressed that "we make no change in the capital gains taxes except for those who have large capital gains." TRUCK'S TITLE NEW YORK (AP) - When Leonard "Truck" Robinson of the New Orleans Jazz won the NBA rebounding title in the 1977-78 season, it was only the second time in more than two decades that a non-center had won that cham- pi6nship. The husky forward, who averaged 15.7 rebounds per game, played his college basketball at Tennessee State. The only other non-center to lead in rebounds in the past 21 seasons has been Elvin Hayes of Washington in 1973-74. Red Grange, the "Galloping Ghost," played in the first pro football game ever staged in New Orleans. It was on Jan. 10, 1926. THE MICHIGAN DAILY vol.

But in mercy God informs the heathen He has set up His King upon the holy hill of Zion, and calls the kings of the earth to be wise, the judges of the earth to be instructed and "SERVE THE LORD WITH FEAR - LEST HE BE ANGRY, AND YE PERISH FROM THE WAY, WHEN IS WRATH IS KINDLED BUT A LITTLE. BLESSED ARE LL THEY WHICH PUT THEIR TRUST IN HIM." We cannot hear God laugh. We can with the "eye of faith" see evidences of His Derision, and the vexations He sends or permits to come upon man; and with the "ear of faith"we can hear Him speak in wrath! We think God "spoke in wrath" to this whole ngation in commanding or permitting President Kennedy to be suddenly cut off, and this Providential Act was a rebuke to the nation for departing from the "faith and foundations of our founding fathers." Since the tragedy we have continued traveling away from these land-marks. Your time is ahead to be cut off, and so is mine! Have you, are you "Preparing to meet God?" Or, does pride and presumption cause you to feel you are already "just right?" THUS SAITH THE LORD: "IF YE WILL NOT BELIEVE, YE SHALL NOT BE ESTABLISHED." The hope of our nation and generation is in those who "TRUST AND OBEY, FOR THERE IS NO OTHER WAY!" P. O. BOX 405, DECATUR, GA. 30031
