Abram at once departed out of his
own land. He proved his faith by his
works. He did not argue or parley.
Neither did he demand some guaran-
tee, but stepped out upon Gods naked
word. There were difficulties in his
way, but faith in God made him brave.
Faith in God gives victory over the
world. He worshiped God. To go
into a heather land and establish true
worship requires a courageous faith.

RiDeting Gang Breaks b
World Record and Earns
so For One Nights Work
nv Associated Preaa.

Quincy, Mass. May pa rivetine
gang. composed of three husky Syr-
ians, at the Fore River yard of the
Bethlehem ShipbuiIding corporation
today claimed to have broken the
worlds record for riveting. This
| was based on the performance oil
Riveter Charles Mulharn, who drove
2,805 three quarter inch oil tight
rivets in a nine hour stretch last
night.
The previous record, the Fore Riv-
eer company stated, was 2,720 three
quarter inch snap rivets driven in
nine hours at the plant OF the Balti-
more Drydock and Shipbuilding
company. Oil-tight riveting is much
harder than snap" riveting, for the
,bulkheads on the shell of the oil
tanker on which the men were work
ing are put under air pressure test.
The calloused hands OF both the
riveter and his ho1der-on were badly
burned, as the tools became heated
because of the rapid manipulating of
the white-hot liyets tossed by their
reater-boy at an average rate of
more than five a minute.
The gang earned something like
$40 as a result of the nights work
and General Manager s.. w. Wake
man added a. substantial bonus in
recognition of the feat. About ESQ
other gangs employed in the yard
have intimated that they would at
tempt to break Mulham's record.

New York, May 2.If the govern

course" flour would be selling at the
mill door today for $40 to $50 a bar

gested population, of a violence that

clared Herbert Hoover, federal food

Mr. Hoover spoke at a conference
of 100 representative American grain
dealers and officials of the admins
tration's grain division, called to dis
cuss grain exports and regulation Of
cereal consumption in this country.

Gated our entire economic life. Mr..
Hoover said he did not accuse the
grain trade of having been respon-

blamed the fact that the allies had to
have wheat and were prepared to pay
any price for It.

TEACHERS GET. HIGHER
PAY, WITH s12OA ADDED


Salaries Of teachers In the lower
grades will be increased In the. District
appropriation bill. This increase is an
addition to the 1920 carried in the gen.
eral salary increase measure. The base
pay for teachers In the District schools
will be raised. These assurances were
given today by Chairman Sisson OF the
subcommittee on District appropria-
tions confirming similar assurance pre-
viously announced in The Star.
1t is probable that. with the $120 In
crease and longevity pay, teachers who
have been several years-in service will
receive at least $1,000. The sole incen-
tive actuating the appropriations COM
mittee granting these increases to
teachers Is the physical fact.that at the

in the way of "reminiscences than has
any session of the association in
months. Judge Charles 8. Bundy told OF
how Washington had given Cahfornia
its navel orange. He said that William
Saunders and other Washingtonians. IN
GLIDING himself, had organized the Lake
Eustis Orange Grove Company. and that
Mr.. Saunders had procured from South
America cuttings Of the navel orange.
which he sent to Florida and California.
California's- orange industry has grown
out Of this beginning. he said.
Jude Bundys remarks led Corre-
spending Secretary John B. Mccarthy
to observe that Washington also had
given California it's flowers and small
fruits, especially grapes. He said that
fruit trees and flowers from the nursery
of John saul. which was located In
what is now known as Sauls addition,
were sent to California at time when
II was not known whether that state
would produce anything besides gold
Mr.. Mccarthy said that he recently
was told by Col. Timothy Hopkins. a
prominent citizen of the Golden Gate
state. that Mr.. Saul is regarded by
many as the greatest man in the his
tory of California because he started
Its flowers and fruit industry.
