CHURCH LAX IN
CIVIC AFFAIRS
Says DIR. John McGown Stevenson
In Sermon on "Modern Meaning
OF Church Membership
BUDGET OVER THE TOP
Broadway Congregation Raises
Sum of s15,OOO-25 Members
Received at Service.

Preaching stirring sermon
from the theme The Modern
Meaning of Church Membership
DIR. John McGown Stevenson. pas
tor of Broadway Presbyterian
church last evening flayed the lax
ity of church people in civic right
eousness. He said in part that the
church is pre-eminent in the realm
of organization, and fundamental to
civilization It's function is that
OF keeping alive the consciousness
OF God as the supreme fact of hu-
man life. He emphasized the func-
ton of the church in civic right
eousness in an exposition of por-
tons of the new testament refer
ring to such passages as Christ's
words in the sermon on the Mount.
"Ye are the salt of the earth -
These words, he said, are Christs
condemnation of the world 1t is
dead morally and the salt of Chris
tian ethics is the only SAVIOR to
keep it from purifying The salt
must be brought in contact with
the dead body Christian men must
mix into politics. This is what is
wrong with the political situation
today. The issue on Tuesday must
be looked at apart from individu-
ais. 1t is an ethical question. A
matter of right or wrong. II do not
believe a man when he tells me
that he will enforce the law when
he countenances and promises to
sanction low boxing bouts which
are in direct violation of our Grim
inal code" DR.. Stevenson said. 81
cannot believe that the highest
kind of administration will be CIV
en- the city from such lawlessness.
The issue has been forced; it is the
same fight as we had before, shall
Rock Island be wet or dry?' The
preacher showed how fundamental
TO civilization the keeping of the
Sabbath is and the place of worship
in modern life, and urged not only
the enforcing of state law but the
divine law

ACE OF ACESIS
TO COME LATER
Captain Eddie Rickenbacher, Great.
est American Airman, May
be Here This Summer.
ENGAGED IN LOAN WORK NOW
AmOO GroftO POstpOnes Making
Arrangements for AyfatOr7s
Talk for a Time.

Captain Eddie Rickenbacher,
greatest American ace. probably
will appear in Rock Island under
auspices of the Amoo grotto after
he has completed his work for the
Victory loan campaign.
First plans called for his ap-
pearance on April %, but this was
subsequently changed, and no def
mite date has been set, but it is
expected that the complete tour
will shortly be announced, as the
first plans called for his appear
ance in Rock Island and Chicago.
However, his services have been
drafted in the forthcoming Liberty
loan campaign and his plans com
pletely changed. If plans are car
ried out, he will appear here some
time early in May.
The grotto has also signed con-
tracts for the appearance this fall
of Madam Schumann-Heink and
Myrna Sharlow of the Chicago
Opera company. 1t is planned to
present Madam Schumann-Heink
early in January and Miss Sharlow
at the conclusion of the Chicago
opera season. 1t has been a num-
Der of years since Madam Schu-
mann-Heink has appeared in Rock
Island. 1t is also planned to pre-
sent Miss Anna Case Of the Metro
politan Opera company early in
November.
May Dancing Party.
a May dancing party will be held
at the Masonic temple on May s,
under the auspices of a committee
appointed from among the younger
members of the grotto. Whites
jazz band will furnish the music
The committee is working hard TO
make this the best party yet given.
The business session of the grotto
on May Z it is thought will be de-
voted to a discussion of the build
ing of an auditorium or coliseum,
as the grotto is now cramped for
room when holding its ceremonials,
and the auditorium proposition has
been in the mind of members for
some time.

QUOTA FOR new
LOAN IS LOWER
Than EXPECTED
Rock Island to be Asked to Give
approximately $1,.5O0, 900 Dur
ing Victory Campaign.

Rock Islands quota for the Vic
tory loan campaign will be approx
imately $1,500.000 with the quota
for the lower half OF the county
about s2,1o0,000.
These figures are based on an an
nouncement made by Washington
loan officials today in an Associated
Press dispatch to the effect that
quotas of the Victory loan will be
oyer three-fourths of the quotas in
the fourth loan.
The amounts announced as the
quotas for Rock Island and tine
