This latter possibility has been dis

however, he says he will join such a
movement If the city does not desist

Mr. Chambers holds that the seq

DOUBT
germ Menace
They Are Not Inclined to Be-
lieye Churches Are Breed
ing Places.
SEVERAL REASONS GIVEN
Danger Declared to Be No Greater
Than in Schools, Moving Picture
Theaters or Railway Stations.

Assistant Surg. Gen. Fuckers warn
ing against disease germs in churches
found little favor among Washington
whether they thought that churches were
breeding places for germs threatening
the health Of worshippers. Many rea-
sons were offered by the ministers tend
ing to show that church buildings are
not nearly as dangerous distributing CEN
ters as are various other places where
people meet.
Although each clergyman interviewed
confined himself 10 the .'retort court
eous." each made it evident that Surg.
Gen. Fuckers designation Of churches
as disease breeding places was not well
coined.
There are 80 million germs in every
teaspoonful of air that We take into our
lungs: perhaps we had better stop
breathing" was the way DIR. James
Shera Montgomery, pastor OF the Metro
politan Memorial NJ. L. Church. prefaced
his answer.
Dr. Montgomery secuted the suggestion
that churches are any richer in disease
germs than other places
Rev. DIR. J. c. Nicholson, pastor OF the
Dumbarton Avenue NJ. Z. Church, said
that he did not believe the people should
be warned against the bacterial content
OF churches any more than against the
presence of this content in theaters, pub
lie schools, railway stations and other
places where the people congregate.
Wear Best Clothes.
People go to church clean, as n general
thing, he said. and wearing their best
clothes This fact alone, he thought.
was sufficient to demonstrate that fewer
germs would be carried to churches than
to suclis places as schools, the railway
stations or moving picture shows. DR..
Nicholson was Inclined to think that the
problem OF guarding against the dis
ease germ was one that is present
wherever we may happen to be, as much
in the private home as on the public
thoroughfare or public meeting place.
at think danger from disease germs Is
present in every public building" said
DR.. ]. Alvin Campbell, pastor Of the
First United Presbyterian Church II
believe a comparison between churches
and schools in this respect would show
that the churches are the least dan
gerous."
II don't believe DIR. Rucker can sub.
staniate the statement" commented DR..
John c. Palmer. pastor Of the Washing
ton Heights Presbyterian Church. In
regard to our own church, it Is thor
oughlyr aired and cleaned after every SER
vice. In the communion service, in
dividual cups are used to avoid all dan
ger Of contagion."

Former Colorado Senator 10 Control
Vast Financial Interests. =

New York, n. Y, Oct 4-FormeI
United States Senator Simon Guggenheim,
who has just returned fom abroad
where he went on his retirement from
the Senate, has been elected chairman
of the boards OF directors of the Ameri-
can Smelling and Refining Company, the
American Smelters Security Company,
and the Guggenheim Exploration Com
pany, a newly created office.
The Senator from now on will resume
his activities In the affairs OF those com-
panies. and will make his headquarters in
New York, although from time TO time
he will visit the various plants and de-
partment headquarters.
Senator Guggenheim has had many
years of practical experience in the min
ing and smelling Industries, and until
his election to the Senate was in charge
OF the Colorado department of the Ameri-
can Smelling and Refining Company.
He will continue his deep interest In
the welfare OF the State of Colorado, and
of the people who have honored him, AMI
will maintain his residence in Denver, but
his political retirement is permanent, as
he wishes to devote himself exclusively
to the further development of the great
enterprises with which his name was 50
prominently identified before entering
public life.

Pacific has been pressed for sale all

lessened and market rallied in feeble

merely from a moderate amount OF short

pointment of a notorious crook to an
important Federal office in the South
