CHURCHES IGHTU.S.
.EDUCATIONCONTROL

Government control OF education is
bitterly opposed by certain sectarian
bodies, it developed today when the
Joint education committees OF the
House and Senate met to consider the
bill creating a Department OF Edu-
cation.
Sectarian opposition is being based
on grounds that any attempt by the
Government to enter into control OF
education would cause a conflict in
religious beliefs.
Senator Kenyon, chairman OF the
Senate Committee on Education,
stated today that fair opportunity
will be given all who oppose the bill
to be heard, but expressed a belief
that when the bill becomes thor
oughly understood there will be no
opposition.
Under the provisions Of the bill
there would be created a department
of education. with a secretary, at a
salary of $4,000 a year. The bill
provides for cooperation between
the department proposed and the edu-
cationaI organizations OF the various
States, but II is declared that 1t In no
sense attempts to place Governmental
regulation of educational facilities.

US. DRY WORKERS
BUSY IN ENGLAND

LONDON, July 1.-THE American
prohibition workers have arrived in
London. The vanguard is led by Will
lam Z. Johnson, who says he made.
first, Oklahoma dry. then Kansas. and
afterward largely the United states.
Johnson is established in fine offices
in Fleet street. He said to reporter
for the Daily Mail:
Your British organizations have
been at US for over a year 10 come
over here. The whole thing has been
in response to their asking. We are
going to teach them how to get this
country dry. 1 have reported to my
headquarters that the position here is
entirely different from that way back
home, but that it is far from being as
hopeless as appears on the surface.
Our workers who come over here
as field representatives are all going
to be paid by US $500 a month and up
ward. The United Kingdom alliance
may. OF course, pay their expenses
when they speak at their meetings,
but we will pay them as well. Our
steady income. at home is about
81 100000 a year, though, OF course
We have a good capital besides We
have 100000 regular subscribers and
100000 irregular ones. We don't
search out wealthy men. Rockefeller
used TO give us 81 500 a year until we
butted in and beat one of his Con-
Cress onal candidates. That made him
mad"

He will receive the same trial as the

The incident indicates strikingly
how things have changed ~ this d.
main. A few years ago woman

punished for getting IN the way u

Several days ago Karl, wearing the
uniform of an officer, was riding
rapidly down one of the main streets
when accidentally he ran into WON
an. a crowd Immediately gathered,
policemen ran up and the rider was
forced to give his name and address

Soon afterward he received the
usual summons to appear in court
where. upon being asked II his name
was Karl Rainier" replied:
NO. ] am Karl Hapsburg, son Of
Leopold Salvador, member Of the i'm

While police court functionaries
opened their eyes in astOnishment,
the Judge sat undismayed and re-
sponded:
"A member OF our former imperial
family"
He then registered the case the
same as all others. referred it 10 the
tribunal Of Joseph Stadward, and
there II will be tried within a few
days.

Radical Change in Management of

Radical Change in Management of
the Baptist Church.-The most far
reaching change made in the Baptist
state convention during its history of
90 meetings was enacted last Tuesday
afternoon when all UNCONVENTIONAL
work in South Carolina was placed
under the guidance Of a general
board.
The convention, Immediately after
creating this new body, elected the
Rev. c. E. Burts, D. D., pastor of the
First Baptist church OF Columbia, as
general secretary and treasurer
The general board, which is to
have charge of such a vast work, Will
be composed of one member from
each Baptist association, 10 members
at large, and the officers Of the state
convention. This is the board OF
which DR.. Burts has been named sec

charge of departmental work, with

other three are to be missions, edu-

three secretaries will be Rev. w. T.

Baptist headquarters will be in Co.

pointed to locate suitable offices. This
means that the activities of the Bap-
tist church in South Carolina Will ra-

because of the rs Million campaign.

HOTEL FOR PARENTS.
For American Fathers and Mothers
Who Would Visit Graves Over There.

The first hotel in France, reserved
exclusively for American fathers and
mothers who have crossed the ocean
to visit the graves of their dead, Will
be opened at Romagne, where Is To-
Gated the largest American military
cemetery in France. Here sleep more
than 2l,500 American boys who laid
down their lives in the war.
Now that passport restrictions are
being lifted, many American parents
are coming to France everyday to
visit the graves of the American SOL
diers. Some mothers come alone, and
not knowing French customs and Ian
guage, suffer many discomforts find
ing the way to their boys grave.
Many wish to remain a. day 'or two
al the cemeteries which are some dis
tance from the nearest towns but uA-
til now there have been no accommo-
dations.
Similar hotels will be established
later at other American cemeteries.
The second one will probably be plac-
ed at st. Quentin.
After Romagne the next largest
cemetery is the one at Thlaucourt with
400 graves. Among the other large
American cemeteries are: Beaumont,
$50 graves: Fismes, 1,S00 graves;
Ploisy 1855 graves; Juvigy 41G
graves; Belleau $500 graves; Bony.
1,SO0 graves, Villiers- -Tournelle, 400
graves and Fera- en- Tardenois $500.
