SUNDAY LIQUOR
SELLING EXPOSE
Church Circles Aroused Over
Violations in the
West End.

The expose OF sunday liquor sell
ing in the west end of the city. as
published in The News-Times Of
yesterday. has aroused church
circles TO a high state of righteous
Indignation. 1t has transpired that
some of the saloons i'm that neigh
borhood have been openly violating
the law for sometime, and il is as
serted that city officials have been
cosnizant of the fact. but have
winked their political eye knowing
~ and let il go at that.
one OF the prominent ministers
of the city called The News Times
yesterday and thanked this paper
for its efforts in throwing light on
some of the sore spots existing in
what he had heretofore REGARDED as
"the spOtless city He was in
dignant. he said that the admins
/ tration should have knowingly al
lowed these saloons to carry on
their business without making any
attempt TO suppress them. He was
aware, he further stated. that pO-
litical exigencies were responsible
for a good many things, but glad
that his eyes had been opened in
time to work and speak against
such wretched hypocrisy.
Women Are shocked.
Many of the church women, here
tofore ardent supporters of Mayor
Gaylor's administration, were pain
! fully shocked that such a condi-
, tion Of things should have been al
lowed to exist, more especially as
il was known to the city rulers.
some of these women have been
making an active canvass in behalf
of Mayor GaylOr's reelection, but
have declared that they are
through.
At least two of the ministers
have let it be known that they will
speak on the subject of Sunday
liquor selling from their pulpits,
and that they will not spare those
responsible for it,
One of the most notorious law
breakers in the west end has let
| il be known he is for the present
administration, first, last and al
ways, and that he is a good re-
publican" 1T was in this saloon
; that some % men were congregated
last Sunday. one of whom after
| being arrested on charge of
| drunkenness acknowledged TO the
police that he had obtained his
load at this particular place.

Plan Was Kept Secret

Major General Sharp reported fav- orably upon the recommendations, and shortly afterwards the following letter, signed by Brigadier General H. P. McClain, Adjutant General of the Army, was recieved by the officers of the American Purple Cross Associa- tion:
 "The Secretary of War directs me to inform you that the subject amtter of your several communications in re- gard to an, expert body of mortuary specialists for service with our mili- tary forces abroad has, been given careful consideration. It has been de- cided that suitable organization for this force shall be adopted for service in the quartermasters corps. The de- partment is deeply appreciative of your generous and patriotic interest"
 The plan of the association has now been accepted and tomorrow Dr. Now bray and Dr. Ecllels will go to Wash ington for another conference with War Department officials, when, it is expected, bill will be drawn up for presentation to Congress for the ac- ceptance of the American Purple Cross Association as an auxiliary of the quartermaster generals depart ment.
 Although no official announcement has been made, it is said that the presidency of the organization will be offered President Wilson; that Secre- tary Baker and Secretary Daniels will be named vice presidents, and that either the treasurer of the United States or some other high government official will be selected as treasurer, who will handle all funds.

 The American Purple Cross move ment has received nationwide in- dorsement.
