'!!l'ORCE CHURCH
FROM POLITICS
|. Shreve Durham Scores
Men Using Religion as PO-
litical Weapon.

Keep religion out of politics, that's
my advice. There are a lot OF cheap
Protestants and lot OF cheap Cath
olics who seek to inject religion into
politics in the interests Of their indi-
vidual. self.aggrandizement." The
statements was made by J. Shreve
Durham, who has charge Of the Rich
mond Home Visitation campaign now
In progress. He spoke to callers in his
office in the Masonic temple today.
What Is needed" continued Mr..
Durham, lis a Catholic or Protestant
big enough and good enough to run for
office, be elected and then resign with
the explanation that he did not care
to hold an office won by political
maneuvers through the medium Of re-
ligion. Even the president of United
States is not too big to resign.
The church plays an important
part in an election but it is emphatic
ally not the church which Is injecting
religion into politics. 1t is the cheap
politicians who know the value and in
fluence of having the moral or active
support of fellow members OF a
church. The church has no place for
politics and the two should be kept
distinctly separate if we desire to i'm
prove the conditions of both"

Officials FOresee End of Out
law Generals Rule in Mex
ican Republic.

WASHINGTON, April 2O-The end
of the reign in Mexico Of General Fran
cisco Villa is in sight, according to the
general belief in official circles today,
Consular dispatches to the state de-
partment confirm the Carranza claims
of great victory by General Obregon
at Celaya. They told of Villas retreat
northward. These reports together
with some other official advices stat
ing that the Carranza forces appear to
be winning on the west coast, strength
en- the belief that Carranza is about
to gain the ascendancy in the revolu-
tion torn republic for the present at
least Other reports reaching Wash
ington have indicated that Villas de-
feat has caused his men to lose
much of their former respect for him,
and that thousands are deserting.
Military experts believe that Villa
with the remnant of his forces is
making for the American border.
Border reports today indicated, how
ever, that Carranza soon may have an
other revolt on his hands. These ad-
vices tell of a gathering there of fol-
lowers of the former Dictator Huerta.
