Rev. Brooks Lawrence
Makes a Statement.
MAY HAVE DISTRICT SECRETARY
He is Interested In Fight In
Florida.
Mr.. Lawrence's Statement Sets At Rest
The General Report That ANTI
saloon Headquarters Would
BE Moved To Mobile.

Rev. Brooks Lawrence will not move
the headquarters of the Anti-Saloon
League to Mobile. as has been been
currently reported for the past two
months. In an authoritative statement
issued in Birmingham Mr.. Lawrence
announces that the League headquar-
ters will continue to be maintained In
Birmingham.
The gossip that Mr.. Lawrence would
move his office and the headquarters
to Mobile has been one OF the most
interesting political reports that have
been circulated in Montgomery and
Mobile. 1t was supposed that Mr.. Law
renee had determined upon this
course. because the dominant senti-
ment In Mobile appears to be opposed
to the Anti-Saloon League policies.
At any rate 1t was believed both in
Mobile and in Montgomery that some
move of the kind would be made. But
Mr.. Lawrence sets this at rest by a
definite statement issued from his
Birmingham office.
I'VE have been discussing whether
we would or should not open district
headquarters In Mobile with Secre-
tary in charge"
Mr.. Lawrence has just returned from
Florida. where he has been assisting
in a fight for prohibition before the
Legislature. In the Florida primary.
Governor N. B. Broward and other
State wide prohibitionists were defeat
ed and In Pensacola a majority OF the
voters voted for wet rather than q
dry town. but 1t IL understood that the
Anti-Saioon League will bring the
fight just the same before the Florida
Legislature as 1t did before the Ala
bama Legislature. MFR. Lawrence has
been in Florida comforting with the
Anti-Saloon League of that state.
He made no comment on the result
of the primary in the second district.

pitch of excitement by the paper pre-
scented by Professor Paul Eaipt OF
Johns Hopkins University. Baltimore.
in which he endeavored to demonstrate
by process of chronological reasoning.
that Christ was not a Jew, but an
Aryan.
Professor Haupt's paper provoked
the keepest discussion, but he refused
to be drawn into racial arguments,
DR.. NJ. Caster. the noted Jewish writer
and lecturer. was his most earnest OPP
ponent. He pointed out that in all
their accusations, the Jews never re-
preached Jesus with proselyte an
cestry. and that the omission of such
evidence was highly significant.
Not single delegate supported the
theory of Professor Haupt, which en-
tireiy failed to convince the Congress.
