The Rev. DR.. Hills Says Con.
gress Will Decide.
iBy Telegraph to The Tribune.


Philadelphia, Dec. S-That the present
anG the next session Of Congress will be
the most important ever held in the United
States, because they will decide the grave
question of billionaires," was the declara-
ton of the Rev Newell Dwight Hills, pas
tor of Plymouth Church, Brooklyn, who
addressed the Ministerial Union of Phila-
d,lphia in Witherspoon Hall to-day. Dr.
Hills was loudly applauded
There are ten states in this Union that
produce OIL" DR.. Hills said. I'm all these
states the people have educational democ-
racy. because they control their own
schools They have religious democracy,
because they control their churches. They
have political democracy, because they
elect their own officers. such as mayors
and governors Yet a few autocrats in
Wall Street have taken from them the con-
troll Of their oil fields.
Now, how long can We remain part a
democracy and part an autocracy? If we
continue TO let "A few men control our in
dustrial life how long will it be until these
men say, We will run your schools, your
churches and your government?
This is the great question, and, as Abra-
ham Lincoln said this nation could not re-
main half slave and half free, just as sure
will our people say we will not remain half
democracy and half autocracy"
