attributed to the fact that Canada,

There are some other things that

of buying small packages of sound

Special to The Washington Herald.
New York. Nov. 27.-A violent con-
troversy is raging between Rev.
Dwight Newell Hills, pastor of his
toric Plymouth Church. Brooklyn, and
Fritz kreisler. famous Austrian vio-
linist.
Should Kreisler care to secure per-
sOnal satisfaction from Dr. Hills for
the latter's criticism of him for send
ing money to an enemy country. it
can be very quickly arranged, it was
learned today.
Pastor Hits Back.
DIR. Hills came back at Kreisler
quick as a shot in reply to KreIsler's
demand that he retract what he had
said about him In a sermon preached
at Plymouth Church Sunday morning.
DR.. Hills said he had nothing to re-
tract, nothing to eQQivocate. He re-
peated that every $4,000 that Kreisler
sent abroad for relief lent aid and
comfort to the enemy, as it relieved
the Austrian government from the
necessity of appropriating a similar
sum, and automatically freed a like
amount for the purchase of rifles and
ammunition.
Is B
Kreisler took exception to the re-
marks made by DR.. Hills in his SER
mon. He said, in substance. that the
minister was a liar. branded the criti-
cism he had made as "cowardly." and
demanded instant retraction. Kreisler
said:
''In his cowardly. irresponsible and
unethical attack upon me DR. Hollis
said: 1t is well known that kreislcr
is an Austrian captain. and to obtain
his release from the army he prom
ised to send a large percentage of his
income back TO the home govern
ment."
This is a baseless and malicious lie.

the gospel, 1 refuse to believe that he
