Every character of importance is
given by Allan Dwan into capable

CHRISTIAN SCIENTISTS
QUIT MOTHER CHURCH
To Start NeU Church at Astor

time in its history, IN the formation OF
church outside the Mother Church. "
will hold it's first meeting in ule Hotel
Astor Sunday morning.
Those who are organizing the new
church assert that the meeting VIII be
followed by others The country over. Mrs
Helena Barwis of 327 Central Park
West. former reader in the Tenth Chris
tian Science Church, is one OF those
most active in the new church. Albert
r. Gilmore, spokesman for the mother
church here. contends that Mrs. Barvis
is acting out OF chagrin az having been
removed from her position in the Tenth
Church. and scouts the idea that she has
any backing for her movement
Mrs. Barwis said yesterday that she
had already received 1000 inquiries
from Christian Scientists regarding the
new church, and that she anticipated
its initial membership would reach APP
proximately that figure.
Mrs. Barwis said the ideas back Of
the new church were mainly TO COM
bat Capitalization of power and the tenv
dency to deify Mrs. Eddy.
I'VE want to save Christian Science
before it is too late she said. 1--WE
are loyal Scientist followers OF Mrs
Eddy, The new Scientist church will
not be centralized. as in the case OF the
existing church. Each congregation
will be self-governing. There viii be
no central authority"
Mr.. Gilmore thinks 1t is 'all "a vision

a statement declaring that drug ad-
diets who make purchases on the
streets would be arrested, and ad
vislng all addicts desiring a cure to
apoly to Chief City Magistrate Will
lam McAdoo. at 800 Mulberry street,
for elf-commitment, was issued last
night from the office of DR.. Carlton
Simon Special Deputy Police Com
missioner in charge of the narcotic
squad. 1t was announced that a drive
is about TO be made upon addicts who
buy their drugs on the streets.
Sergeant Mooney of the Narcotic
Squad, arrested Daniel Coletto of 2l6
East Fourteenth street, and locked him
up at Police Headquarters on a charge
Of vending narcotics A cigar box full
of what appeared TO be heroin, worth
probably 5000, was found in Coletto's
room. together with $50 cubes of what
the police say is morphine. and several
bottles of cocaine. DR.. Simon said Co
letto mad been under investigator for
some time, and that his clientele was
made up OF apparently prosperous people
who went to his room in taxicabs.
Addcts are warned in the statement
from Or. Simon's office not to take pri-
vate cures The department, which re-
Ceived inquiries daily from addicts, viii
not give the addresses Of medical men
vino give special cures or the address

this work, and who, are controlled either
by the State or the city.
Mors drug venders have been arrested
during the last six weeks than during
the entire year of 1919. The numerous
arrests made during the last three and
q half months, the statement says, has
produced a panic among those addicts
who purchased their drugs on the
streets. When an old dealer is arrested
the addict must seek a new one.
Whereas this department respects the
sincere activity and the work of the
State Department of Narcotic Drug
Control. and will not molest any addict

scribed for by a physician, according to
the law" says the statement, lit has no
sympathy for those addiots who buy

Commissioner Simon said he did not
wish TO infict unnecessary injury, but
insisted that every addict not comply

dealt with, no matter what station of lie
he may occupy.
