 Declaring that if his hope is full filled he "shall be rich in happiness and in good works" MT. Strauss con tinued:

Episc0palians in Session Here Hear Louisville
 Minister

J. M. MaXon, Episcopal minister of Louisville, Ky, last night told church and lavmen here for the annual Ark ansas Diocesan council that bolshev- ism in the United States sought not higher pay for workers or better con- ditions, but to overthrow the present government of the United States.

 Dr. Maxon, who has spent some time in studying the radical trend in the larger cities of the United States, declared that strengthening of Ameri- can institutions along Christian lines is needed to combat the bolshevistic tendency. He spoke at length in be- half of the nation wide campaign which the Episcopal church is waging A crowded auditorium at Trinity church heard him. Charles Baltzell of Fort Smith who was to have spoken last night on the boys movement was unable to be present.
