BIRMINGHAM LYCEUM LECTURE

When Rabbi Wise announced the Free Synagogue" in New York city q few years ago, the public smiled tol- erant smile. Christians shrugged their shoulders, Jews shook their heads doubtfully while an orthodox theology stood amazed.
 Today, the Free Synagogue" is an ernationally famous house of wor- ship, where Christians and Jews alike meet in bonds of ideal fellowship to heed the inspiring words of a wonder fully gifted man who keeps his finger on the pulse of events and who always has something timely to say.
 Probably no man in America is in closer touch with affairs--with the big, vital problems that mean so much to us. All of which is one reason why the Free Synagogue" has grown to be New Yorks great social and religious center. It was first a little dream e Dr. Wise's but today it is dream realized. It is doubtful if any other person could have done it; possibly no one else would have dreamed of it.
 Splendidly equipped is Dr. Wise. A man of big ideas thinker, a modern- ist, leader of men. Profoundly elo- quent, magnetic of big voice and com ma ndirg stature, he drives home his clear cut, sincere convictions in man. ner that compels thought. His convic- tions cover a multitude of subjects. re- llgious, scientific political and social. Christian ani Jew alike worship side by side at the Free Synagogue prin- cipally because of Rabbi Wise.
 From Portland, Ore, came Rabbi Wise to found his Free Synagogue"

INSURANCE DEFY INJUNCTION Mississippi Billion Dollar Anti Trust Case Takes SenSa-
 tionaI Turn
By Associated Press

Jackson, Miss, February B. There was a new and unexpected development in the billion-dollar antitrust suit of the state revenue agent against the fire in surance companies today when the Mis- s.ssippi Association of Insurance Agents sent out telegrams to all local agents advising them not to pay any amounts to the receivers recently appointed by the chancellor of the Hinds county cir cult court who were named to handle 1nearned premiums
 The association is acting on advice of it's attorneys, Green & Green. who, in an opinion, hold that the state antitrust law was of no force and effect during the war, which is portion of the period covered by the billion-dollar suit, and that it is not the duty of the agents to make payments to the receivers, be- cause the liability of the agents is that of garnishees, and no judgment can be taken against them until after general judgment has been rendered against the companies.

They had admired him for his works, for his practical religion. His ministry there had reached out beyond the doors of his synagogue until it covered all of Portland. It was min istry of deeds, of action. It stretched out to the down-and-out. the social outcast, the meek and the lowly. It was exactly the ministry which today extends out overI New York city and reaches the hearts of Christian and Jew alike,
