FIRST SUNDAY IN
RENOVATED CHURCH
Methodists Hold Inspiring Services,
at Which Large Congregations
Were in Attendance

Before the time of opening Sunday
school every seat and many chairs
that had been secured for the occas-
ion were filed in the new Methodist
CHURCH. Sunday morning with an
overflow crowd in the adjoining Sum
day school rooms.
In the absence of the superinten-
dent, Mr.. ]. lei. Therrell, president of
the general Sunday school council of
the Methodist church and formerly
Sunday school secretary for the Flor
ida conference, was in charge of the
srecial program. A most inspiring
scene was when all families who had
every member present were asked to
stand until they were counted. This
showed forty-seven families with ev-
cry member present in the Sunday
school. Four classes in the main
school and three in the elementary
division showed every member pres
ent.
At the IL o'clock hour Rev. J. P.
Hilburn, D. D., presiding elder of the
Orlando district, preached a most
timely sermon upon the fundamentals
of the Christian religion, calling his
hearers back to the old paths of SIM
pie gospel living. DR.. Hilburn was
for three years pastor of the Ocala
church, then for four years he was
presiding elder of the Ocala district
and lived in this city total of seven
years. He was warmly welcomed by
many of his former friends and pa
rishioners.
A report of the building committee
read at the morning service showed
that so far the building had cost ap-
proximately $4,000 and that it would
require some $4,000 to complete it
One remarkable thing was that no
person had given more than $500, but
that practically every member of the
church and many friends had given
amounts from 25 cents to the above
amount. After preaching collection
was taken in which something more
than $31OO was given towards com
pleting the church, which will be done
at once. The building committee
showed that they would be able tc
complete the building for $4,000 less
than the lowest bid on the work.
At the night service the Christian
Baptist and Presbyterian congrega
tions united with the Methodists IL
one of the largest congregations seer
in a long time in the city. Ever!
space down stairs in the Sunda!
school annex and in the balcony wa'
occupied. Rev. III. E. Partridge o.
Coleman, one of the former pastors
of the church and who for four years
was presiding elder of the Ocala dis
trict, preached most inspiring ser
mon on citizenship in the spiritua
church. DR.. Partridge graduated from
Wofford College, Spartanburg, S. G.
81 years ago last June and is nov
filing out his fiftieth year as an &C
tive and effective member of tn
Florida conference. He is a nativ
Floridian, born at Monticello.

Hub Strike Breakers
Roughly Handled by
Strike SympathiZers

Boston, April 4.-Ten arrests were
made late today as a result of an at
tack made by building trades strike
sympathizers upon party of strike
breakers who had just quit work for
the day on a building job on Devon
shire street, in the banking district.
The police had been informed that in
timidation of strikebreakers was to be
attempted there and at two other
buildings under construction in the
district. When strike pickets appear
ed at the three points they were kept
moving by a force Of 80 traffic off,
GERS and Is patrolmen, directed by the
superintendent of the traffic corps and
q police captain.
A crowd concentrated near the Dew
onshire street building and when the
workers started to leave they were set
upon. In the free-for-all fight that
followed two strikebreakers were so
badly beaten that they were taken to a
hospital suffering from broken heads
and there were numerous minor inju-
ries. The police finally succeeded in
dispensing the crowd.

Propaganda in i. S.

Springfield, Mass, April 4--Scath-
ing denunciation of Bolshevism and
of interests in this country, capital
istic or labor, which tend to propo-
gate red anarchy was given in the
report of the Federation for Social
Service in the sessions Of the 125th
New England Methodist Conference
| in Trinity church here today. The
report in part said:
1.-The time has come for the
church to stand unflinchingly for the
defense Of her social creed and pro-
gram when she is attacked from
without by any great vested interest
or by autocratic organizations of any
type or kind.
1.-The boycott against the Y. M. c.

burgh merits and hereby receives
our condemnation.
I'VE deprecate the attacks made
on the Federated Churches of Christ
in America, the Y. M. c. A, the Y.

in general by those who say that
these institutions are infested by
Bolshevist propaganda"
The report also deplored the
"pernicious propaganda attempting
to widen the breach between this
country and England"

ACCEPT WAGE CUT OR STAY
OUT STRIKING PRINTERS Of HUB
TOLD BY MASTERS OF so SHOPS
2121 WALK OUT

Boston, April 4-Union leaders said
tonight that 2,121 printers, bindery
workers and electrotypers had quit
work in 50 shops today as a protest
against reduction in wages. No
movement looking toward settle
ment had been made tonight and the
spokesman, for the employers said the
only means of settlement would be
acceptance of the employers terms
by the strikers.
In a statement tonight, Sylvester j.
Mcbride, president of the Boston
Typographical Union. said the strike
was a protest against the arbitrary
reduction in wages" He criticized an
advertisement by members of the
Boston Typothetae to the effect that
with the wage reduction would
come a reduction in the cost of print
ing.
I'm other words" he continued
they arbitrarily take money out OF
the workers envelopes and give it to
the printing consuming public. If the
printers and bindery workers Of Bos-
ton were receiving anywhere near
the wages paid the same class OF
workers in other cities of like i'm
portance there might have been some
justification for a discussion of wage
reductions based on the cost of living,
but no justification can be found when
the true facts are made public.
These men and women have been
receiving $40 a week less than the
same class of workers in Chicago, SO
less than in New York City and
from 81 to Sc less than in Philadel-
phia and other large cities.

GERMANS MUST PAY

washington, Apr. 4.-ParaphraSeS
of the informal exchanges between
the German and American govern
ments regarding PREPARATIONS, in which
the United States holds Germany
morally bound to make reparation,
SO far as may be possible" were made
public today at the State department
DiscardinG the German commune
cation as an "unequivocal expression"
or the recognition of that obligation,
the American reply expresses the
hope that renewed negotiations which
Germany says it plans to initiate,
may lead to a prompt settlement
which will at the same time satisfy the
just claims of the allies and permit
Germany hopefully to renew it's pro-
ductive activities"
Included in the German commune
cation is the suggestion that the only
solutions of the reparations problem
is in the international loan, in favor
of which the allied and associated
powers would waive the general mort
gage on German assets created by
the treaty of Versailles. In this con-
nection the German government says
it would not be unwilling to assume
the obligation of the interest and the
amortization of the foreign debts Of
the allied and associated powers,
within the limit of her capacity"
Germany invites the examination
by unbiased. experts of it's own abil-
ity to make payment" and says she
stands ready to meet any proposal
which appears feasible. for the solu-
ton of the economic and financial
problems of Europe"
The American reply makes no ref
erence either to the proposed con-
solidation of allied debts as a German
obligation or the suggestion for the
determination by unbiased experts of
the ability of Germany to pay.
/! Another consideration with regard
to re.nrations presented by Germany
is that of the rehabilitation of devas-
tated regions The German govern
ments says 1t stands ready to offer to
France good offices and resources in
whatever form is acceptable. 1t as

itation of the devastated regions 1t

! Germany declares that there exists
in France only a limited degree of
concern for the rehabilitation of the
devastated regions because advance
indemnities have been given to for
mer occupants of the soil who have
settled in other parts of France and
the work of clearing the war areas
"has been undertaken by influential

MENACE SEPARATE PEACE WITH
GERMANY May FORCE ALLIESTO
ACCEPT ASSOCIATION NATIONS
SEPARATE PEACE CLUB

Washington, April Although
the resolution declaring a separate
peace with Germany is to be reintro-
duced at the coming special session
of Congress, the present plans of
Republican leaders as they shape
up after a long succession of con-
ferences include no provision for
hurrying the measure 70 a roll call.
In some quarters close to the ad-
ministration it was believed tonight
that the peace declaration, passed by
the preceding Republican Congress
and vetoed by President Wilson,
might rest on the calendar of de-
ferred business for q period of 30
days or more while President Hard
ing tries out his preliminary ideas
for establishment of an association
of nations.
How far the President himself
may have concurred in such a pro-
gram was not revealed, but some of
those who have his confidence
pointed out that with the resolution
hanging fire in Congress the admin
istration might be in position to
exert an enlarged influence in secur-
ing acceptance of its peace plans by
other nations. Technically this gov
eminent still would be at war with
Germany, exercising the full privi-
leges of a belligerent in the arrange
ment of final peace settlement.

the allies.
In such circumstances, it was
suggested, the possibility of sepa-
rate peace might be used diplomatic

situation as leverage to secure ac-

There are rumors that the govern

Their emergency regulations will be is

ers, will strike in support of the min
erS.
The railwaymen strongly favor a
strike, on the ground that when the
railways are taken out of government
control a similar situation may arise
and unless they support the miners
now, they cannot expect the miners
support should they need it at that
time.
The nti-governmental press openly
accuses Premier Lloyd George of
trying to maneuver the labor party
into a false position, whereby he
could appeal to the country against
the labor policy of direct action and
Bolshevism."
The balance of opinion tonight is
that the triple alliance will refrain
from the declaration Of general
strike until it is certain that attempts
at peaceful settlement are hopeless.
1t is announced that the admiralty
has cancelled all leave.
The Prince of Wales on the advice
of the government has cancelled his
