LATE CANDIDATE TALKS
Christensen Says Organization Al. ready Making Plans for 1924
By Ass,.iated Pr..s

Los Angeles. November 7.--Parley v Christensen. late candidate for President on the farmer-labor ticket, today told an audience at the Labor Temple here that his organization was already making plans for the 1924 campaign and that ne hoped to be it's standard bearer.
 As a means toward educating the pus- lie and also toward financing the cam paign, he said, the party would imme- diately embark in industrial enterprises, starting it's work in southern California by buying hides, erecting and operating shoe factory and selling the output through it's own stores. The plan, he said, contemplated that the party would actually direct these enterprises. although they would be handled under another or ganization, and the net revenues, he said, would be used for the advancement of party interests
 The southern California enterprise. he said, would be financed by recent can dfdate for senator. He namA6 Willis m Kent, former representative from Call fornia, as the man he had in mind.
 Similar enterprises will be started at once in various parts of the country, he said.

NEGRO BAPT|STS CLEAR CHURCH DEBT Amid Rejoicing Dr.. Goodgame Announced Church Debt Had
 Been Raised

There was great jubilation, songs If praise and shouts of thanksgiving last night at the Sixth Avenue Baptist church (coloredD when pr. J. W. Good game pastor of the church, announced that $l1,oo0 had been raised during the day and that the church debt of sso 600 had been entirely wiped out.
 During the past few weeks Dr. Good game and the officers of the church had been conducting campaign to ra:se the sum of $11,O00 to pay off the debt that remained on the church building, and yesterday an all-day service was held to mark the close of the campaign. It was not until last night that the full amount was raised, and when the pastor made the announcement that their hopes had been realized, the joy. of the con sregation was unbounded and gave vent to their feelings in shouts of praise, fervent prayers and tears of joy.
 There were three meetings at the church yesterday. An extra service was held in the afternoon at 8 o'clock, when Dr. J. k. billiard, pastor of the South sue 6dplLSt cnuFcn, preached sermon on The Church." It has been Dr. Dir- lar6's privilege to preach for Dr. Good game on several occasions and the peo- ple are very enthusiastic and responsive. At the coise of Dr. Dillard's sermon . collection was taken and the people marched around to the front and emptieI their pockets in answer to the prayers that God would give then victory.
 In addition to the singing of the great chorus choir, under the direction of lola williams. many of the old favorites were sung by the St. Luke Glee club. The choir, under the able direction of the orsanist, gave several numbers ty request such as There Ain't Goner Be No War No More," and Swing Low, Sweet Chariot" John Wills, who is a favorite soloist in the choir. also sang Katheleen Howard delighted the congrs- gation by singing solo.
 Many white people attended the after noon services, showing their interest and offering encouragement by making con- tributipns to the work of the church. The Southside Baptist church pledged 3oo0 to this very worthy cause.
