Frank Elliot, %. a painter residing
at AS North Twenty-first street, was

body of the car passing over him.

CHURCH PEOPLE HERE ARE
COLD, A STRANGER SAYS
Tells Newspaper Man of the Frosty Hospitality He Met
with in Visiting Several Churches in This City during
the Last Three Months.

"The welcome given to strangers at
services by members of Richmond
churches is the coolest | have ever
received in any CITY," stated a young
man this morning, who came to this
city a few weeks ago to accept posi-
ton in an office.
In only two of your churches which
l have visited since coming here three
months ago, did any one try to make
me feel at home and invite me to come
back In the others an usher lolled
in a seat near the door and allowed me
to find a seat for myself Ushers,
members of the congregation and pas
tors alike were Indifferent to the fact
that there was a stranger among them.
Il am sure it could not have been
that they did not notice me, for in
practically every case, | was the only
young man in the audience. This was
a surprise to me. In other places
have been accustomed to seeing a
large part of the congregation made
up of younger persons.
What do you consider the reason
for the lack of interest by the young
people?" he was asked.
Indifference and a lack of friendly
spirit toward strangers. What induce
ment is there for woung men away
from home TO attend the church SER
vices if they are completely ignored,
and placed outside an invisible wall
which protects the members. Another
fault that l would find would be with
the singing, which is such a long
drawn out process that it becomes
agony rather than praise. Because
church music is sacred is no reason
why it should be sung as funeral
dirge."
The young man said that when he
came to Richmond three months ago
The Richmond palladium and sun-telegram. [volume] (Richmond, Ind.) 1907-1939, 1913-08-26

he determined to visit all the churches
for his own personal satisfaction, just
to see how strangers were treated.
He first attended the church OF
which he is a member. No one offer
ed him a seat although an usher was
sitting in a chair beside the door. He
was not invited back again after the
service Disappointed, he determined
to give them another trial, but with
the same result.
He then tried another denomination,
where three persons. two of whom he
had met in a business way, asked il
he were a member of that denomina-
services. Trying still other churches
he again found the same welcome,
the members, few of whom exchang-
ed mods and smiles, and shook hands
after the sermon, but toward the
stranger, they manifested absolute in
difference.
Recently he dropped into another
church just as the services were be-
ginning, again he found his own seat,
and just supposed that the same re-
ception was awaiting him. But. he
says that for once he was mistaken.
When he hesitated after the sermon
an usher came to him, gave him a
hearty hand clasp and invited him to
return. Not only that but he intro
duced him to a number of the men,
bers, all of whom shook hands as il
they meant it, and gave him a cordial
welcome to return.
Concluding the interview the young
man said. Il shall be afraid to go
to church for several weeks now"
Why" he was asked.
Everyone VIII be on the lookout for
me if you print what / have said

REDUCTION IN LEVY

sured by Trustee.

500 valuation in Wayne township

less than it was last year. The levy
made by the trustee is for the year
1913 payable in 1914.
County Auditor l.. S Bowman stat
ed that the levy for 1913 in Wayne
county would be approximately the
same as last year. There will be very
little change either way according to
the auditor. The matter will be settled

The Richmond levy will be $500
per 500 as was the assessment last
year. This also will be payable in 1914.

UNDERWOOD ROLLER
STEAMS OVER GRAY
Indiana Congressman's Cur
rency Amendments are
g Killed in the House.

WASHINGTON, Aug 26-The
house bosses are now completely in
control of the caucus that is framing
currency law behind closed doors
and the steam roller is being run
ruthlessly over all members who have
the temerity to offer amendments
which they believe would perfect the
administration bill. No sooner is an
amendment proposed than the "toot, .
"toot' of the steam roller is heard and
the amendment is voted down by a
large majority.
1t is now certain that the bill will
be reported into the house with no
amendments except such as the bank
ing and currency committee itself pro-
poses or such as it is willing to accept
by the bosses.
Finley Gray Gets His.
representative Finley Gray, of In
! diana, went up against" the steam
roller and met the common fate of
those before him who has tried to
buck the house organization. The
Sixth district representatives proposed
two amendments, both of which ap-
pealed to the progressives as being
excellent. He made a vigorous ten
minute speech, throwing into it all the
vim he could command
He was cheered to the echo. The
shouts were heard half way over to the
senate, notwithstanding the doors of
the house were closed. When it came
to a vote, however, Leader Underwood
pulled open the throttle of the steam
roller and the caucus did the rest
One Of Grays amendments, which
ayes, was as follows:
The said reserve districts shall be
divided into four geographical divi-
sions. to be known respectively as
the eastern division, the southern di-
vision. the western division, and the
north central division, each of which
said divisions shall embrace as nearly
as practicable to the geographical ter
ritory designated by their respective
titles. and in selecting the four ap-
pointive members of the federal re-
serve board the president shall ap-
point not more than one of such mem
bers from the same geographical di-
vision
Representative Gray again bucked
the house machine by proposing the
following amendment:
Admission to rediscount shall be
without discrimination against any pa
per made the basis of loans and dis
count for agricultural, commercial or
industrial purposes which is generally
accepted as such basis by member
banks in their respective sections of
the continental United States in the
usual and customary course of the sta
BILE credit business of such sections.
Nor shall any admission to redis-
count discriminate against any pro-
duct of labor in the ownership of the
original producers thereof as the
basis for such paper. where securities
based upon such products in the hands
of purchasers of the same are admit
ted to rediscount"
