Church, State and Poor.

A book on THE Church, the State
and the Poor" has been written by an
English vicar. The book is compre.
hensive, tracing the subject of preref.
ormation days. The author regrets
that during the growth of collectivism,
under which he CLASHES what is
called Christian socialism," the
church has trusted too much to the
state to better the conditions among
the poor Now there is revival OF
interest In the welfare of the poor on
the part Of the church. The writer's
contention is that a firm belief in the
Christian creed is the only inspiration
and guide to any effort to solve the
social problem"

NOT TO Be ARRESTED
Neither VIII Suspended Post
Office Employee Be Placed
Under Bond.

Orrawcll Williams, suspended super
Intendent of the local postotlice money
order division, will not be arrested. al
though information secured against
him will be presented to the next grand
jury in April This statement was
made yesterday by l.. A. McGcc, fol-
lowing conference with United States
District Attorney W. w Ray.
According to Mr. McGee, no arrest
will be made. and as Williams is not
under any bond, except that requiring
him TO properly fulfill the duties of his
Office, he will be free to go and come
as he likes until the grand jury meets.
Regarding statements made yester-
day afternoon to the effect that no
charges have been filed with the de-
partment against Williams, Inspector
MCGEE insists that charges were fled
before action asking for Williams g
suspension was taken by the depart
ment. 1t is understood TINT not only
have charges been filed with the de-
partment at Washington against Will
hams, but that the latter has fled an

A peculiar thing in connection with
the suspension of Williams from the

partment is that he still retains the Of

polntment TO 1t is made upon recon-
mendatlon of the local postmaster. it
is wholly under control of the civil

department has no jurisdiction over it,
Postmaster Thomas said yesterday that
Williams would retain the position and
conduct the examinations if he wished
He says that he Will not be removed
unless the commission acts upon the
matter. When seen yesterday Williams
said he had made no plans, but would
probably resign the position.
Inspector McGee says the statement
made in an afternoon paper that the
money involved was not government
money, is a mistake. He says that
while the money was not lost by pa.
irons of the postofice, it was the gov
