Southern Baptists Adopt ResoIu-
tion Asserting Religious Or

PRESS IS ATTACKED
Divorce Evil Is Attributed to
Lax Laws, Modern Motion
Pictures and Intemperance.

Washington, May Amendment to
the constitution to prohibit the use
of public funds for the support of
sectarian institutions is recommended
in resolution unanimously adopted
today by the Southern Baptist conyen-
ton.
In introducing the resolution DR.. Cam
bell, president of the convention de-
clared that Baptists were opposed to
receiving money for their own work
and every religious order in the world
ought to pay its own expenses.
The convention was addressed today
by Bishop James Cannon, Jr., of the
Methodist Episcopal church south.
The south must stand like Stonewall
Jackson and not let the enemy push
1T back Bishop Cannon declared, en-
dorsing the conventions pronouncement
for the maintenance and entertainment
of the prohibition amendment. IF
southern Methodists and Baptists band
together in the south, that settles it,
he said.
A proposal to study the advisibil-
ity of establishing a Baptist newspa-
per was made the occasion for an at
tack by DR.. Ben Cox, of Memphis,
against the American newspapers in
general and the Associated Press in
particular. Seventy five per cent of
the blue pencils in American news

as a remedy.
Quoting from government statistics
on the number of divorces obtained
annually in the country, the report
shows that in 1916 when the last
figures were gathered there were Ill.,
036 divorces.
Were later figures available the re-
port continued, "the picture would
doubtless be larger still, certainly this
would be true Of 1919 owing to the
large number of hasty and foolish
contracted during the war"
AS a primary cause of this sad con-
dition" which is characterized as an
ugly speeter which looms on the hori-

DANIELS FLAYS
NAVAL OFFICERS
Says Sims and Others Have At
tempted to BeIittle Power
of Civilian Secretary.

|. Washington, May f7-Testifying be-
fore the senate investigating commit
tee today, Secretary Daniels declared
that Admiral Sims and few more
naval officers like him had attempted
to 'Prussianize" the navy and belittle
the secretarys power. He insisted that
Sims letter Of January Z was intended
to curtail the authority of the civilian
secretary and make a rubber stamp"
for the professional officer.
About the only piece of advice for
mer Secretary George Won L. Meyer
gave him when he succeeded him, Mr..
Daniels declared, was the admonition
that there We're officers in the navy
who wished less power for the civilian
Power lies here,'' Mr.. Daniels said
Meyer told him, as he pointed to the
secretary's desk, land it should re-
main here"
He did not fully recognize what his
predecessor meant until a few months
later when admiral Fiske and other
disciples of the Won Tirpitz system OF
naval control sought to organize the
American navy on the PrusSian plan,
Secretary Daniels said.
Rear Admiral Sims original charges
against the navy department sh owed
hostility toward certain officers and
desire to damage the ranking Of
ficers who directed naval operations
during the war, the naval secretary
declared, adding that "the evidence has
shown a desire to discredit the seer
tary OF the navy because he was not
a rubber stamp secretary" -.
II congress wished to depart from
the traditional American policy OF
civilian control of the navy. it Should
do so, directly and clearly and With
out pretense," said Mr.. Daniels by max
ing an admiral secretary of the navy
and a member. Of the presidents
cabinet. The most ardent advocates
of the general staff system have not
advocated going so far, however, be-
cause they wished to keep rubber
stamp" civilian as figurehead IN the
office, he said.
The witness quoted from reports
and writings of other naval secretaries
to show, he said, that they. too, strug-
gled against substitution of the gen.
eral staff system.

PREACHER Gets
CHANCE in pen
Judge Sheppard Saves Him HUI
initiation of Facing Congre-
CATION After Paying Fine.

In the federal district court yester-
day, Judge Sheppard decided to save
w. L. Hall, a colored preacher, the
humiliation of facing his congregation
after the colored parson had pleaded
guilty to a charge of illicit distilling.
"It would be pretty hard on you to go
back to your congregation after pay
ling a fine, wouldn't it?" the judge
Iasked.
"Yessuh, yo' honor, it sho' would
"Well, I'll save you the humiliation"
|said the judge and the defendants face
frightened.
.1'm going to give you a change to
live it down." Judge Sheppard said,
and the sun was shining and the birds
singing in the trees for Rev. Hall, but
April had nothing on the judge for
bringing clouds when he said:
'You can spend months in At
lanta"
Gull McHenry and his father, John
McHenry, were acquitted of the charges
against them, possessing a distillery
and making spirits without having
proper bond. Gull McHenry declined
the services of an attorney and de-
Tended himself and his father. He
cross examined the governments wit
nesses and addressed the jury in so
able a manner that the verdict was in
his favor.
A long list of defendants entered
pleas of guilty to illicit distilling, etc..
and paid fines as follows: win. Ward,
$50; Dave Dukes, $50; j. J. Parker,
$75; r. B. Douberley, SIS; Dennie Rob-
erts, SIS; Charles Jackson, s75: VIII.
Smith, s75: John Yanks, s75; D. A.
Lewis, SIS; White Scott, $50; Adam
Donnell, $50.
Elijah Mashburn, blind negro, who
has no family and no dependents was
sentenced to spend a year at Atlanta.
Judge Sheppard said he hoped the
prison surgeons might be able to re-
store the old negro's sight and for
that reason was sending him over.
Fred H. Sheppard pleaded guilty to-
violation of the Mann act and the
case was sent ahead for trial.
Andie Helms, Will Spires ana Dan

MAKE MOVE TO
BREAK TIE-UP
Interstate Commerce Commits
sion Calls on All State Powers
to Cooperate in the Work.
PLAN DEFINITE AC TION
General East and West Move
ment of Cars Will Be First
Step In Clearing Blockade.

Washington, May 17.-As the first
step towards breaking the freight
blockade in the north the interstate
commerce commission today tele-
graphed all state railway and public
service commissions urging them to
join hands with the government in
lifting the burden. The commissions
inspectors were put to work to help
get accurate data respecting conditions
at critical points.
Members Of the commission recog-
nized that the present crisis would pro-
vide a real test of the new transporta-
tion act. The commission will probab-
ly deal with the local situation in
various cities through individual roads
until a general scheme is worked out
by which priorities and embargoes
can be employed to restrain the on
rushing stream of commodities wait
ing at every station. The fuel situa-
tion has reached the danger point, rep
resentatives of railroads and shippers
said.
Members Of the interstate commerce
commission today met with representa-
tives of the railroads to discuss means
of breaking the freight blockade. Con-
sideration will be given to the rail-
roads appeal for help, filed with the
commission Saturday and the con-
ferences probably will continue for
several days.
Officials declared the task before
them was of such magnitude that a
solution might require more time than
at first anticipated. They were hope
full, however, that tomorrow or Wednes-
day would see a definite program laid
down for the movement of the vast
volume of accumulated freight.
The railroads suggested several de-
tails to the commission for inclusion
in its traffic plan to break the conges-
ton. One Of these was a general scheme
for the movement Of grain cars west
ward and coal eastward to meet cur
rent requirements. Cars for food and
perishables, however, would have full
preference over all others under the
railroad mems plan.

TENT CITY HAS
SAVED TENANTS
Newark BOrrows 200 Army
Tents and Starts Encamp-
ment for HOuseless People.

Newark. N J.. May 7.-One hundred
and ten families, evicted by landrords'
are comfortably housed in Vaiisburgh
Park today under tents loaned 10 the
city of Newark by the war department.
1t is a real Tentville whose denizens'
although temporarily homeless, are as
happy as could be expected in a com
munity forced to live outdoors. IL Is
expected that, before the end or sum-
mer. 200 more families will have joined
the little colony.
Captain Thomas w. Reilly, ma
chine gun man with a fine overseas,
record, laid out the place and gave each
arrival a first come, first served choice
of their canvas habitation- one OF
them was a young widow with lour
children. She received an order to va
cate her apartment after failing to
defeat her landlord in lawsuit.
The city appropriated $25,0oO Tor the
operation of the camp and Governor
Edwards donated a big tent WHICH
in the center, serves as a community
kitchen. Army food from the municipaI
sales stations helps further to keep
down the cost of living. The new set
tlement is provided with many conven-
iences including a sewerage system,
running water, a laundry tent equipped
with tubs and stoves for ironing, show
er baths and toilets.
The total cost of installing the i'm
provements was less than $500, accord
ing to Captain Reilly, the largest sin
gle item being s12O for heavy insu-
lated wire for electric lights. Soldiers
and a number of city employees helped
to put up the tents which are 16x16
feet and lay the board flooring. The
tents are boarded up three feet from
the ground. Most of the inhabitants of
Tentville have stored their furniture
in the prospect of better days and are
sleeping on cots furnished by a local
hospital. The town" is laid out in
eight streets with one main avenue
them.

ASK CHINESE TO
DANISH DIPLOMATS

Peking, May 17.-The soviet author
tiles at Irkutsk, Siberia, have asked
the Chinese government to Danish
from China the diplomats and consuls
of the old Russian government who
have continued to live in China since
the overthrow Of Emperor Nicholas.
The request is signed by NJ. 1anson.
delegate of the Council Of Commits
saries in Siberia and the Far East.
The soviet note declares that these
diplomats and consuls still are being
supported by the payment to them
by the Chinese of that portion ct the
Boxer indemnity allotted to Russia but
this source of support would be cut
off by the soviet governments renun-
citation of further payments of that
indemnity. The soviet note adds:
..The powers given to these officers
of the former emperor have long
ceased to. exist but the officers con-
tinue to live in their houses and to
fool the Chinese with the assistance
of Japan and the allies. The Chinese
people should take cognizance Of this
fact and Danish these liars and fools
from their territory"

RAILROAD WAGE
RAISE FAVORED
Association of Executives Be.
lieve Many Workers Deserve
Increase to Meet III. C.. L.

Chicago, May 17.-Wage advance
should be granted to many railroad
workers to enable them to meet the
high cost Of living, the association OF
railroad executives declared today in
its opening statement before the rail-
road labor board. The board began
hearings here today.
e. T. Whittier, chairman of the con-
ference committee Of rail managers of
the executives association told the
board that some part Of the wage de-
mands being made by 100000 railway
employees probably would be found to
be justified by the rise in the cost of
living.
Agreement of the railroad themselves
that at least a part Of the men should
have more money is expected to go far
toward expediting early settlement Of
the controversy which eliminated last
month in strikes by disgruntled en-
ployes.
The demands now before the board
aggregate more than a billion dollars a
year, in addition to a billion dollar ad-
vance during the war and $300,000,-
600 advance in the two years prior to
government control, according to Mr..
Whittier. He presented figures to show
that the railway pay roll had increased
from 39.5 per cent of the gross earn
ings of the roads in 1916 to 53.6 per
cent last year.
The new transportation act provides,
Mr.. Whittier said, that any substan-
tial increase in wages must result in
rates. to the public for rail-
road service. For every $100,000,000
added to the payroll about 8 per cent
must be added to freight rates, he
said. The earnings are now before the
interstate commerce commission asking
TOR an increase of % per cent, largely
to provide for the billion dollar pay
roll advance under the government
control and operation.
Following the reading of the execu-
ives statement the railroad board ad-
until tomorrow.
