PROPOSED BAN ON BIBLE
DECLARED PREPOSTEROUS
Suggestion to Postmaster General
Calls Forth Condemnation From
Resident Pastors.

A number of Washington ministers to.
day characterized the proposal submitted
to the Postmaster General by some peti-
toners to exclude the Bible from the
mails as preposterous. and not worth
giving serious attention.
II think that the whole thing is SO
ridiculous that 1t should not be even
noticed" said Rev. w. r.. Wedderspoon,
pastor Of Foundry NJ. F. Church. 81 am
sure that the American people win con-
slider any petition Of this kind In the
right light The Bible does treat life in a
very frank manner, and evil-minded people
could translate it's passages to their own
detiment. but I am sure that the peti-
ton will not be considered seriously by
the Postmaster General"
This petition must have been started
by fanatics" said Rev. DR.. A. N. Holmes.
assistant pastor of Foundry Church.
How any one could bring such charges
against a book that has stood sponsor
for all the highest ideals OF man Is
beyond my comprehension"
