STANLEY MEMORIAL
 SPECIAL SERVICES
Series Of Sunday Evening Meet.
 ings Proving Popular

Tn spite of the unpleasant weather a. good sized eongreg ton enjoyed the special service at the Stanley Memo rial church last evening. This was oae of the series inaugurated about the first of February by the new pas tor, RevY.> G. M. Missirian. The serv- ice begins at 7:3G immediately after the evening service of the Young Peoples society and consists of a brief special musical program during which the Girl Scouts render a selection, the organist, T. ". Fred erickson, a tal- ented young musician and a student of music at Yale, gives a selection on tie piano and the Sunbeam club, club of junior Sunday school girls, give a, pantOmime or other special number or a violin solo is rendered. Theen the pastor gives a brief address on some subject pertinent to the problems of the day, and talks during the present period being more par ticularly. with reference to the Lenten season.
 The pantomi1ne last evening intro duced for the first time the use of the spotlight which was furnished by the church stereopticon and repre- sented the hymn, Abide With Me" After one of the girls of the Sun beam club had read 9 brief history of the hymn writer and the circunl- stances surrounding the writing of the hymn, it was sung by the club during which time one of the girls, dressed in white, posed against 2 dark green curtain with no other light but the spotlight and enacted the emotions described in the hymn. It vas very beautiful and impressive and added much to the charm Of the service.
 The Stanley Memorial church. standing as it does alone on the east side of the city the only Protestant church in that community, offers 8 splendid opportunity for community service which the pastor and the people are anxious to grasp and arc doing everything in their power to attract those people who, because they are living so far from the other Protestant churches, do not attend. All are heartily welcome, regardless of denomination or creed, to attend the services of this church.
 Special attention is called to the service prepared for the coming Sun day evening, which will be of a pa triotic nature. It will be composed of sangs and reeitiatiens by the Boy Scouts and Girl Scouts, patriotic com- munity singing, a pantomime, and a talk by the pastor. The service to be used is furnished by the inter church emergency commission of which more detailed notice will appear in the church notices at the end of the week.

McGraw would use Hal at first and

AMERICA GIVES
RECOGNITION TO
NEW POLISH RULE
Lansing Sends Message to
Paderewski, the New
Premier

Washington, Jan. 30.-Recogni-
ton of the provisional government
of Poland has been accorded by the
American government, officials of
the State Department said yester-
day in making public a message
which Secretary Lansing at Paris
has sent by direction of President
Wilson to Ignace Jan Paderewski,
the new Polish premier.
Mr.. Lansing congratulated Mr..
Paderewski upon becoming head of
the Polish government and said the
United States would be glad to en-
ter into relations with the new Po-
lish state as soon as possible. Mr..
Lansing's telegram follows:
The President of the United
States directs me to extend to you
as foreign minister and secretary
of foreign affairs of the provisional
Polish government it's sincere wishes
for your success in the high office
which you have assumed and his
earnest hope that the government
of which you are a part will bring
prosperity to the republic of Po-
land.
1T is my privilege to extend to
you at this time my personal greet
ings and officially to assure you that
it will be a source of qualification
to enter into official relations with
you at the earliest opportunity to
render to your country such aid as
is possible at this time as it enters
upon a new cycle of Independent
life, will be in due accord with that
spirit of friendliness which has in
the past animated the American peo-
pie in their relations with your
countrymen."

U. S. Not to Change
the Wheat Guarantee,
Flour Dealers Assured

view York, Jan. 80. julius
Barnes, president of the food ad-
mlnlstration grain corporation, as
sured flour dealers and millers in a
statement here yesterday that there
would be no impairment during the
present crop year of flour prices de-
pendent upon the guaranteed price
for wheat. He said the grain cor
poration had no intention of resell
ing below the standard buying price
the stocks of wheat which it had
accumulated.
Mr. Barnes, who returned yester-
day after two months abroad in the
party of Federal Food Administra-
tor Hoover, said that reports had
reached him of apprehension on the
part of the millers, flour dealers and
bakers that thegovernment might
resell the wheat taken from the
growers under the guaranteed basis
|-$2.26 a bushel at Chicago-at a
lower price level, thus resulting in
a decline in -four prices.
price level of wheat as at present
The basis on which this feeling
existed, said Mr.. Barnes, seemed to
be an impression that the world
price level of wheat is at present
ruling, was below the guaranteed
price basis effective in America
Broadly speaking, he added, this was
not true. World buyers, privileged
to seek the cheapest sources of sup
ply, he said, were still coming to
America to purchase wheat and
wheat flour because, ocean transpor-
tation and other conditions con-
sidered, the American price was still
more attractive to them than the
rates in the Argentine and Austria
liam markets.

Say Laws Pending
to Regulate Packers
Are Unnecessary

Washington, Jan. SO.-While Lou
is f. Swift. president of Swift o.
Company, was being cross-examined
yesterday before the Senate agricul-
ture committee as to whether the
five big packers had combined 20
control meat prices and markets,
Edward A. Cudahy, president of the
Cudahy Packing Company, and 7. e.
Wilson, president of Wilson & Com
pany, told the House Interstate
Commerce committee. that pending
legislation to regulate the meat pack
industry was unnecessary. 81
Both Mr.. Cudahy and Mr.. Wilson
said the investigation of the industry
conducted by the Federal Trade
Commission was unfair and bAesed
and that it should not be used as the
basis for action by Congress. They
declared that If complete and inn
partial investigation had been made,
the commission would have found
that there was no need for legisla-
ton.

BECAUSE OFLENT
Plan Would Begin Campaign

April 6

Washington, Jan. 3o.-Because
the Lenten season this year does not
end until April 20, the Treasury is
considering postponing the opening
of the next Liberty Loan campaign

to April 2h A decision has not
been reached.
No attempt has been made as yet
by Secretary Glass or his advisors
to settle on the interest rate or other
terms of the loan, it was stated off,
cially yesterday. Whatever the
terms may be, they will accord with
the prinaiple of maintaining the
market price of preceding issues

Bankers are urging the Treasury
to make the interest rate on the
next loan Az or per cent, but
officials are inclined to keep il
lower if possible.

a glance at the averages. including

He has won the laurels chiefly
through his ability to shoot fouls.

Carl Beck broke into the scores
last week and began with the toppy
average of fourteen points for the

the Tech players stand well, but, be-

using nine players in each game, the

London, Jan. 30.-The decision of
the Belgian government to maintain
Ypres, the scene of several battles
between the British and the Ger
mans, in it's present condition as a
permanent memorial, is endorsed
heartily by British press and public
opinion.
"Ypres will be a memorial" says
the Westminster Gazette, in which
future generations may learn the
horrors of war. There is nothing
more impressive than the sight of
the stricken city with the skeletons
of it's once wonderful buildings ris-
ing gaunt into the sky. In sense
there are few things more beautiful.

Every one, therefore, will welcome
the decision that the remains of the
old city shall be left intact instead
of being cleared away"

they hardly will be available for

The new volunteer army numbers
