Seventh and ] streets northeast.
In nearly every Protestant denomi-
nation the art OF divine healing Is
becoming recognised as a function
OF the true church. The Episcopal
ians ana Methodists have had divine
heaiers perform miracles In their
own churches, and now the Baptists
are coming to the fore.
POWERS As HEALER
DR.. Cox 10 one of the most promi-
nent Baptists In the South. When
the Southern Baptist convention was
In this city several months ago. he

For the past week. DR.. Cox has
been conducting revival services In
Centennial Church. Tomorrow after
noon at $3.50, and again on Monday
and Tuesday nights, he will demon
strate the power he says has been
given him by God to heal bodily and
spiritual ailments.
Most healsrs simply lay hands on
the AFFLICTED and pray. Dr. Cox does
moro than that-he annoints the
heads of the patients with oil. He
says ne has scriptural foundation for
this act, and quotes passages from the
pospei Of st. Mark and the book of
81. James.
Scores of instantaneous cures have
been Effected through the power OF
prayer and annointment, DR.. Cox said
today.
MANY deaf persons have been
healed instantaneously." DR.. Cox said.
"One woman In particular received
spiritual blessing. She had been a deaf
mute for years. ! was surprised to
find her talking in a high pitched
voice. Others who have been deaf de-
clared they could hear as well as you

PRAYER Is NEEDED.
'"The practice Of healing has ex-

faith, but not until recently did the
practice, 30 far as I know. receive
from Baptist preachers sufficient en-
dorsement to bring the practice into
Baptist churches.
For twenty-five years have been
preaching q partial gospel. Recently
I learned from my Bible of q new
mission had to perform--healing

these precepts: too much materialism
has crept in--too much Journalism. 1t

DR.. Cox subordinates the effect on
the BODILY man." and declares that
the greatest benefit from the healing
services is to the spiritual life of the
patient.
Prayer-continuous prayers nee
essary, he said.
"Some people say the day Of mira
cles has passed." he said. "Who knows
when they passed% Can anyone give
US the date or day? They have not
passed. There is not a passage in
scripture which tells us mircles have
vanished forever. II we have the

and Placed Under Depart

The Prohibition Bureau probably
win bs' divorced from the Internal
Revenue Bureau Of the Treasury
Department and made q separate
bureau In the Department OF JUS

This probably win bs done ct the
next session Of Congress, II Is be-
lieved by officials, who point out
that the work of the Prohibition
Bureau IL more along the lines Of
the Department Of Justice than
the Treasury Department.
DID INTERNAL REVENUE WORK.
The only reason the Prihobition
bureau was attached 70 the Treasury
Department. Il v said. was that the
bureau was taking up the work Of the
Internal Revenue Bureau which had
to do with liquor.
The Internal Revenue Bureau. of
which the Prohibition Bureau 10 Q

II Is said that the officials OF the
Internal. Revenue Bureau would wei

AZ long ago a. last May Il was

separation. for on several occasions
he advised the men OF the Prohibi-
tion Bureau. who were formerly In
ternal revenue agents, and as such
were bonded. to "hold on to their

Department OF Justice many OF the
former revenue agents will not 60
with Il. but will be kept in the In
ternal Revenue Bureau and put to
work on miscellaneous taxes, which
formed part Of their former work.
John +. Kramer. Prohibition Com
missioner. said today that he had not
heard OF the proposed change, but
was not surprised. ii
The changing Of the Prohibition
Bureau will necessitate a slight modi-
ncation In the prohibition law. but

COPS NEEDED
Congress to Be Asked to Provide
Better Equipment for D. c.
Department.

The biggest need IN me wssnins-
ton Police Department. next 70 more
men, is better equipment This II
the opinion OF several officials OF
the Police Department and they will
make an effort at the next session
Of Congress to see that the proper
equipment is provided.
NEED MORE MOTORCYCLES.
What IN particularly needed at this
time, they say. 10 more motorcycles
policemen. with the possible eliminA-
ton of the bicycle policemen. There
are numerous occasions when bicycle
policemen do not I'LL the bill, IL 10
said, but IL these same men were
mounted on motorcycles. they would
be invaluable.
In a recent Instance. q downtown
furrier was robbed Of several thou
sand dollars worth OF fura and the
robbers escaped because the police
man who tried 20 pursue them was
mounted on a bicycle, while the
mobile. which outdistanced him In
70 few blocks. The case was one, the
police official say. In which the
thieves would not have been able 70
get away II q motorcycle policeman
had been in pursuit.
IL was early in the morning when
the police OF the hrst precinct re-
ceived word that thieves were In
10 street store and making away with
furs. The policeman on duty at the
station house hastily mounted his
bicycle and started for the store. Just
as he was rounding the corner the
away from the door. and before he
had time to get as far as the store
the car had disappeared around the
corner, and the crooks had gone with
several thousand dollars worth OF
furs.
BICYCLEs LAsss USEFUL.
For several years, officials Of the
police department say, the bicycle
policemen. In many instances gradu.
ally have been losing their usefulness.
The only reason they are still main
tained on the force 10 that they can
cover more territory than the foot
policeman.
The police officials say they would
be changed to motorcycle policemen
| IL Congress would appropriate suf-
ficient money. Under the present ap-
preparation, bicycle policemen Are al
lowed $40 a year each for the buy
ing and upkeep Of their bicycles. The
motorcycle policemen are allowed
$3.50 q year additional to buy their
machines. keep them in repair and
buy gasoline IF Congress would ap-
propriate enough money to mount all
bicycle policemen on motorcycles, the
police officials say they would do
SO in a day. .tt
MOTORCYCLE Squad SMALL.
In washinkton at the present time
there are seventeen motorcycle police
men. fe3a tfian in any other city OF
It's size In the country. Most Of
these Smen. are stationed In the out
lying precincts where Q motorcycle
is almost q necessity in patrolling
the vast territory they cover. There
are fifty-five bicycle policemen scat
tered around the several precincts Of
the city.
Major Gessford in his annual report
asked that additional motorcycle po-
licemen be appropriated for in each
police precinct. but many OF the Of
ficials think this Is insufficient. They
maintain that all bicycle policemen
should be mounted on motorcycles to
get the maximum amount Of service
out Of the mounted portion Of the
force.
