Evangelist Seeks Another Job
TO Keep Wolf From His Door

The Rev. Robert Rein, an evangelist
for thirtyone years, is looking for an
other job. He has found, he says, that
in this age Of skyrocketing prices the
business of saving souls doesn't pay.
At the age Of fifty-eight he is living in
small room with his wife and young
son and eating his meals at a dairy
lurchroom.
Yesterday MIR. Rein decided that he'd
have to seek a more remunerative pro
fession. He is willing to do anything
that is honest, barring work for the
motion pictures or in a cabaret.
The following advertisement was IN
serted by Mr.. Rein yesterday in the

maica newspaper:

alarms were sent in. Firemen aba ?

PoRT-AU-PR1NCE, Hayti, Nov. o.
a fortnight's study of conditions her.
brings out the frmest conviction that
IL IS the paramount duty Of Congress
as soon as it assemblies, to appoint q
compact committee of it's ablesi mem
bers to sail at the earliest possible
date for Hayti, to Investigate the
American administration of the little
republic.
The ultra-limited scope of the naval
board under Admiral Mayo, now hold
Ing sessions on the island, renders it
incapable Of even scratching the sur
face. A Congressional investigating
committee armed 18th the fullest DOW
ers Of subpoena would soon be able
to wash our dirtiest linen with the
fullest publicity and do a great service
to the nation.
Not only is it necessary to allAy
Haytlan distrust Of our intentions here
to clarity the economic and industrial
air and to allow the country to begin
to develop, but 1t is urgent that the
whole Latin-American Hemisphere be
purged Of it's growing doubts regard
ing traditional American methods and
sincere fulfllment Of our treaty obli-
cations.
Natives Are Distrustful
The Haytians have been intimidat ID
by five years Of American occupation
They have been denied the cooperation
that was promised them under the
treaty they made with the Unites
States, and out Of this lack Of CO.
operation has grown an understand
fear of reprisas by the American au-
thorities if the Haytian grievances are
spoken of publicly.
Consequently the only way that 1e
facts can be drawn out of these n.-
tives is to subpoena them and get thei
sentiments under oath. It also is i'm
perative that the Congressional inves-
tigating committee take the testimony
of the American representatives of
commercial enterprises that were
drawn to Hayti by the development
promised under the treaty.
To date the naval board has vrtu-
ally failed to develop anything con-
structively essential to the case-that
American Intervention has been an OBJ
stacle in Hayti. Furthermore, it is
futile to expect that under the limited
/ instructions given the board by Secre-
tary Daniels anything essential will be
brought out.
Civil Problems Need Solution
In the event Of broad-gauge Con
gressional investigation a committee
could not only clear up the accusations
of slaughtering natives that have been
made against the marines, but it could
place the blame in the proper quarter
If any one is actually to blame, and it
could solve all the civil and military
problems that have given rise to CON
troversies.

PARIS, Nov. 23.-The League AS
s.mbly commission on general organ
;sstion, OF which Arthur j. Bslfour, of
the British Empire delegation, is chair
man. decided to-day to rule out for
the present all consideration of amend
ments TO the league covenant.
II this decision is accepted by the
Assembly it will be impossible to
caugc what reception the league might
have extended to changes which the
entry of the United States into tho
league involves.
Il Is understood that in making hts
suggestion that all thought Of amend
ments be dropped Mr. Bslfour asked
his committee to give the league cove
nant chance as it stands at present.
He pleaded with them, If amendments
really we're needed, it would be clearer
At the next meeting exactly what these
amendments should be.
Changes Urged by Sweden
Chief of the amendments which had
come before the committee were those
proposed by Sweden and other mem
hers Of the Scandinavian group. These
particular amendments are not opposed
ty many members Of the Assembly, but
reports are circulating that other and
more drastic propositions are to be
advanced by other states.
One of the South American countries
is reported to be considering an amend
ment to dalete Article z entirely. This
proposal is said not to be under cou-
sideration wholly with the purpose of
meeting the criticisms leveled at the
article in the United States. On the
contrary, the South American delegates
are understood to resent Article x be-
cause it expressly invokes the principle
Of foreign protection, which is contra
dictory to the spirit Of the provision
which shields the Monroe Doctrine. TIN
South Americans feel that the Monroe
Doctrine may be strengthened rather
than weakened by Article K, because
under it the league would recognize the
right of the United States to act as the
special protector of state on the South
American continent.
Mr.. Balfour persuaded his fellow
commissioners to rule out the ques-
ton OF amendments also for fear that
any consideration of them would start
lnterminable wrangling and discussion
among the states at period in the
leagues development when it might
seriously injure the organization. The
chairman felt that any wranglinr still
further would complicate the American
position.
United States Suggestions Awaited
II Mr. Balfour has his way no
amendment will be voted on until the
United States has had an opportunity
70 make any suggestions which it de-
sires to put forward AZ to conditions
upon which it would enter the league.

his coat from peg on a wall in Helps
Kitchen and began preaching. He has
been preaching ever since.
Several years ago he went to ia

he had little success. He tried street
preaching for a time, gave noon-hour
talks on the business streets Of ia
maica, supplied the pulpits of Jamaica
pastors during their vacations and Off
ciated at funerals and weddings.
Just now there are no pulpits to ill
or parishes to take care Of, and the
clergymen with regular charges are

young son, he was compelled to move
from his apartment in North First

met with rebuffs In applying at various
banks and business houses for work.
