Special Correspondence Of The Star.
CLARENDON, Va, November 2o.-Se.
we're criticism of churches for spending
go much for the decoration Of their
services was made today by Rev. DR..
Roper OF Petersburg, Va. at the ninety
second annual session OF the General
Association Of Virginia Raptists, in ses-
sion at the First Baptist Church today.
Many of our churches look like au-
tomobiles or bicycles decorated for pa
rades. rather than battleships stripped
for action" he said. Some churches
are paying more for their choirs than
they are for foreign missions. It is
absurd for them to pay $4,000 for cur
rent expenses and less than $3.50 for
foreign missions. The church that
can't give more than ten times as much
for missions as for its music has a
poor idea OF proportions. There are
500 millions Of human beings looking
to the western hemisphere for their
Christianity"
DR.. ]. 8. Love, secretary Of the south
ern board OF missions. crfticlses nu-
merous religions and faiths. He also
urged that more money should be spent
by America for its foreign missions.
He said that American millions are
being made today in China on the heels
of missionaries.
Deacon Dan P. Wood of Warrenton
was called home from the session to-
day by telegraph because his sister
Mrs. Brown, was killed by train. The
association united in a prayer of sym
pathy for the family.

TOASK PROTECTION
FOR j. S. CITIZENS
Secretary Lansing's Demand
of Mexican Government in
Behalf of American Planters.

Secretary Lansing told Repre-
sentative Mann today that he
would Immediately ask the MeXi-
can de facto government to afford
adequate protection to Americans
on the west coast of Mexico in
the vicinity OF Los Mochis and
Topolobampo bay.
Indians have threatened Ameri-
cans on the sugar and other plan
tations in that section for a long
time, and recently some of the
Americans connected with Chi
cago and other interests have
been driven away from their
plantations and have appealed for
protection OF this government.
Substance Of Representations.
Secretary Lansing's representations
to Gen. Carranza contemplate the use
Of several hundred Mexican govern
ment troops in that vicinity.
Recent advices to the State Depart
ment reported that Los Mochis was
raided by Indians and Villa forces a
few days ago, and that they left Los
Mochis after looting several properties.
Gen. Dieguez announced that Gen.
Munoz, military commander in the state
of Sinalao, had been ordered to retain
at Los Mochis detachment for the
protection of that region, which may
be found adequate without reinforce
ment. The government authorities
claim that the Yaqui valley in that
vicinity is completely garrisoned.
Mr.. Mann Gratified.
Representative Mann, as republican
leader of the House, expressed gratif-
cation today that some settlement of
the Mexican problem had been made
during the interim of Congress and
hoped it would restore peace, but sug-
gested that the driving off OF these
Americans from the Los Mochis planta-
tions had occurred since the recogni-
tion of the Carranza government.
