next SUNDAY NEAR
EAST RELIEF DAY
Ministers Over County Are Urged
To Bring 1t To Attention
of Congregations

Sunday, Feb. 9Th, is Near East
Relief Day, and 100000 ministers
in the United States have offered
their services for the day. DR..
Telford, DR.. Carpenter and DIR.
Green have signifed their inten-
ton of stressing the Near East
problem here.
Imagine a bread line of 10000
famished people waiting for "a
hours for the dole of food that is
the sole barrier between them and
death from starvation. At Fri
van, the capital of Armenian re-
public, one hot meal is given out
daily, and by this relief alone the
city's death rate has been cut
from a thousand daily to an aver
age of 20. It is to avert these
wholesale deaths that the Near
East Relief is making a nation
wide appeal for funds.
DR.. Telford has addressed the
following letter to his fellow-pas-
tors:
To the Pastors of Madison Coun-
| ty:-
Dear Pastors-A nation-w wide
campaign is. nowNon to raise funds
to save the starving homeless
millions of the Near East. The
Near East Relief committee have
requested that the pastors of all
denominations present this cause
to their people from their pulpits
on next Sunday.
The Near East Relief commit
tee was chartered by Congress
one of the few ever granted a
granted a charter for service of
this kind.
Among the~men who compose
this committee are such men as
VIM. Howard Taft, Henry Nor
genthau, Herbert Hoover, Chas.
Evans Hughes, Elihu Root and
Cleveland H. Dodge.
/ Let the people know there are
eight hundred thousand starving
/ people absolutely dependent upon
the help of Arerica who will per
ish this winter if this help is not
given; that. there are 250,OOC
homeless children most of them
orphans, whose lives are depend
ent on our gifts.
Col. VIM. n. Haskell, American
High Commissioner in Armenia
says in a cablegram: Believe sit
uation in Causcasus worst in the
world. Suffering unbelievable
| Herbert Hoover says: "In the
Near East is the most desperate
situation in the world"
/ Without food and poorly shell
tered, thousands are dying of colo
land starvation.

WASTE WATER

There is waste of over 35O,OOC
gallons of water every "a hours,
by consumers letting faucets run
mostly at night. This waste OF
water not only entails great and
useless expense, but it may make
it impossible to furnish adequate
water pressure in case of fire. We
hope that all water consumers
will appreciate these conditions
and take pains to confne their
use Of water within reasonable
bounds.

CITY PAYS $4,000 ON
PAVED STREETS DEBT
Bonds Bought Back and Will Be
Burned-Employes Ask Coun-
Gil For Salary Raise

Already Richmond has paid off
$4,000 Of the bonds that she vot-
ed for paved streets, and as yet
not a yard of paved streets has
been laid The street improve
ment fund taxes have accumu-
lated SO fast without anyone
hardly noticing it that Mayor
Evans thought it a wise thing to
pay off part of the debt, so he
bought the bonds with approval
OF the city councilmen, and re-
ported to them at their regular
meeting Thurs ~ night. The
bonds will be rmally burned at
the next regu meeting of the
council.
B. a,,.- ess was before
! thc 1lt, fathers Application
was made by d number of city
employees for increase in salaries
from $S5 to $l0O per month. A
joint petition was signed and pre-
sentcd to the council, the signers
being Policemen VIM. Maupin,
and James Turner, Firemen Nose
Nelson and Stone Maupin, Civ
Collector Jesse Dykes, and Street
Commissioner James H. Altman.
Many feel that the employees de-
serve the increase during such
high times. The matter was re-
ferred TO the finance committee to
report upon at the next meeting
Street Commissioner Altman re-
ported 5000 spent for labor on
the streets Turing January. Chief
of Police { aud Devore had his
checl, for $l54 collected from
fines during January attached to
his report.
City Collector Jesse Dykes
showed collections amounting to
$30SV for the month.
Mayor Evans told of an invita-
ton to join an association of
mayors of the fourth and fifth
class cities and benefits that can
be. obtained by co-operdtlon along
Legislative lines. He was author
lied by the council to join for
Richmond.
Councilman Terrill was authorized
to purchase for $40 set of heavy
harness, for use in grading work this
spring. It was formerly used by
brewery horses in Cincinnati and it is
said could not be bought Tor SITS of
new.
ia Council declined to take action
upon d request by Emil Lohrisch for
exemption from taxation for five
years for his ice cream factory. COun-
Gilman Golden said that the city had
just gotten stung once by a similar
proposition, and he was against trying
it again.
The City Engineer S, F. Crecelius'
report showed $4,527.49 worth Of
work done by the sewer contractors
during January.
After Councilman Golden had pro-
tested against about two trees at the
corner of Main and Collins street and
called attention to cutters being stop
ped by on a number of streets, the
bills were allowed and the council all
journed.

CREDIT CRISIS MAY
CAUSE CONFERENCE
tBy Associated Press)

Paris, Feb. 6-Proposals that
an international financial confer
ence be called Immediately to
consider measures for relief of the
international exchange situation,
find support in French govern
ment circles. One banker said
that in the absence of other ef-
fective measures restrictions on
imports will probably become
more rigorous. 1t is well recog-
nized that the exchange situation
is due to the credit crisis.

 CHALLENGE ON WAR
Underwood Says for Fifty Years of Republican Rule Nothing Was Done To-

.ey A.seciatea Prs.,

Knoxville. Tenn, October 25. Senator Oscar W. Underwood. democratic floor leader of the Senate, here tonight replied to the challenge of Senator Warren G. Harding that the democrats had cost the nation untold millions and the loss of the lives of American soldiers by unpre- paredness for war persisted in for po- litical purposes; that they were equally unprepared for peace and reconstruc- efficient
 He briefly brushed aside republican criticism of the league with a compari- son of Article III of the League to En- force Peace, favored by Taft. Lodge, Roosevelt and others. which. he said. is even more drastic than Article X.
 Senator Underwood said that in fifty years of republican rule nothing had been done to provide the United States with fleet; that right after the civil war the republicans scrapped the American army down to 25.0oo, and that not until the administration of GroveEs-c Cleveland either. He char Sesa sar Harding with failure to perform His gpty as a public official if he WAS fcrse arned of war and did not urge rreparadness in the Senate. and then lqiatft- 70 the recoI of Harding in .atr3a1ning pills and lead ing fights ta Ieor which he sad was nil.
 In reply to tte eoAfsS 3f grotesque n- efficiency, he s2id ihs tne democrats had to point to ppe Nt 9n'y. the federal reserve act. tc disap{ f@fes that charge He pointed to .nvee oifs in the fifN years under tht Tabkt an national banh act and the atefAFt fFe republicans to pass the AlsFb fs8fF plan, whfcn would have pl&csd tht pfTer over the finances of the coahtry 5, a privately owned central Dant ', Nav York.
 The charge Of faiiArs tc provide for peace and reccns fractl3n. he said. WAS not up to the asmoerAslo party, but one for which the rsppbNcaHs alone were re- sponsible. as the power v make the laws to accomplish tltis vas given to them by the people in thp eleesscn of 1918 lie said the republ csns hai failed to repeal certain wartime taxes as utsed by Presi- dent Wilson, salauss uley wanted to wait until there gas repf blican Presi- dent in the White Hotse 10 they couIi legislate the taAss oft sA backs of cer- tain people ontg tnoTe of others.
