Ne VI YORK To VOTE
F D R ONE Of SIX
IN MAYORS RACE
(By Associated PreSsl

New York, Oct. When Father
Knickerbocker goes to the polls at
the city election, Nov. 8, he will have
an opportunity to vote for at least
six candidates for mayor, though one
of them is in prison.
The candidates are:
CONGRATULATIONS John F. Hy-
Ian.
Experimentation, Henry H.
Curran.
Socialist--Jacob Panken.
Prohibition-George X. Kinds.
Farmer-L abor-Jerome de Hunt.
Workers League (Communist)-
Benjamin Gitlow.
Gitlow, a former assemblyman
convicted of criminal anarchy, is SER
wing a term at Sing Sing prison.
Preliminary skirmishes indicate
that the main battle will be between
Mayor Hylan, a candidate for re.
election, and Henry H. Curran, pres.
ident of the Borough of Manhattan
who won the spirited four-cornered
primary race for the nomination by
plurality of more than 10000 votes
Mayor Hylan seeks reelection or
the grounds that he has made gooC
in his four years term as chief exec.
utive; that he has been the friend
of the people; has fought "big inter,
ests" and kept the traction fare down
to five cents.
Mr.. Curran, who has been in city
Office for 10 years, has not yet de,
cided upon his platform in detail
but has indicated that he would fol.

in the primary campaign. The mair
issue, he believes, is that of conduct
ing the city affairs on a business-like
basis. He maintains Mayor Hylan's
administration has been inefficient.
Mr.. Curran and the mayor do moi
belong to the mutual admiration so.
ciety, They have clashed frequent
ly. When the annual police parade
was held some months ago, Mr.. Cur.
ran was not invited to the reviewing
stand so he mounted fire hydrant
and viewed the bluecoats as they
marched by.
The Republican workers have beer
busy applying salve to the wounds
caused by the hot primary fight anc
apparently all is harmonious. The
three defeated candidates recently
dined with Mr.. Curran and pledged
their loyal support to him.
The campaigns of the other candi.
dates so far have been conducted
quietly. Political observers believ:
their votes will not be greatly in ex'
cess of those at the last Presidential
election, although it is recognized
that national party lines are not fol
lowed closely in municipal elections
The city is normally Democratic

REINFORCEMENT
Is A VITAL NEED
IN SOUTH AME RIGA
(By Associated PreSs.l

Lima, Sept. 3O--A cordial reap
proachment between the civilized
peoples of the southern half of the
New World is the urgent and imme-
diate need of today, said President A.
B. Leguia, speaking at the opening
of the Simon Bolivar Museum, one
of the features of the centennial Gel
ebrations. The museum building,
the president recalled, was the same
in which Bolivar, lberator Of the
northern republics of South Ameri-
ca from Spanish rule, drew up the
invitation and bases for the congress
of American republics and conceived
more than century ago, the idea
for a society of nations to serve as a
council in great quarrels and point
of contact in case of common dan
gers"
"Such was Bolivar's thought, a
thought which here took shape and
found a happy expression" contin-
ued the president. "a century has
passed and events have proved for us
that the talented liberator was right
and foresaw future storms. My
government is therefore of the opin-
ion that this occasion and this spot
are fitting to once more proclaim,
after the lapse of years, the need for
a fraternal union--vigoruos and sin
cere-between the peoples descended
from the same generous trunk and
their union, further, with all the 9TH
err peoples of America"
A new antichthonic league, (com-
posed of people of one hemisphere
the president said, will unquestiona-
bly, be the "opus which the future
conceals from US enshrouded in its
impenetrable shadows. But that
which today is pressing, the urgent
and immediate need, is a cordial rap
proachment between the peoples OF
this hemisphere and that an effective
deed of restitution shall extinguisf

Unitarians Gather
In Detroit For an
important Session
tBy Associated p,ess1

Detfolt, Mich, Sept. 30-The 29th
biennial meeting of the General Con-
ference of Unitarian and other Chris
tian churches, the first national gath
ering of the denomination since the
campaign of last fall when $1,000 900
was raised in the United States and
Canada, will open here Tuesday.
The conference will devote four
days to the consideration of recon-
mendations for program of expan-
sion and missionary" work as the
next logical step made possible as
the result of the financial canvass.
The ministers and lay delegates from
more than 400 parishes will consider
also, as deliberative body, the stand
of this church of no written creed on
ultra-liberal tendencies on the part
of some ministers toward "atheistic
humanism." The Christian Register
the official organ of the denomination
has taken the position editorially
that "the only heresy is immortality"
AS president of the conference,
Chief Justice William Howard Taft
of the United States Supreme Court
has issued a call to Unitarians of
NorthAmerica, urging them to at
tend the sessions and support the
Unitarian program for curing that
destructive indifference to religion
and the church which threatens the
moral fiber of our present civiliza-
ton"
The Detroit call reads:
81 think every Unitarian who real
ly believes in his church and its fu-
ture usefulness should make an eff
fort to go to Detroit. There is a re-
vival among Unitarians, having the
purpose to make the church more
useful than it has been in the past,
as a means of curing that destructive
Indifference to religion and the
church which threatens the moral fl
Der of our present civilization, and |
urge, therefore, that every Unitarian
or anyone having an interest in lib
eral religion, should support the con-
ference by his presence"
A prominent place on the program
has been given over to the Unitarian
Laymen's League. This organiza-
ton has built up a membership Of
II 400 active members within the
last three years.
The defects and remedies of con-
gregational polity, standardization of
public worship in the Unitarian
church, the obligations of the churcn
in schools and colleges, prohibition
and temperance and instruction Of
the young, are some of the subjects
which will be presented at the ses-
sions.

polled 785,7S3 votes, and James M.
Cox, democratic candidate for Presi-
dent, 344,131. The Socialist vote was
1882; the Farmer-Labor party
1888 and the Prohibitionists 1,166O.
The new party in the field this fall
is officially named The Workers
League of Greater New York, known
as the Communists. Many of its
workers formerly were associated
with the Socialists.
Harry Winitsky, former executive
secretary of the Communist party,
who like Gitlow, his running mate
for mayor, was convicted of criminal
anarchy, is candidate for president
of the board of aldermen.
Mrs. Rose Pastor Stokes, noted So
cialist worker, is candidate for presi-
dent of the Borough of Manhattan.

Little Lois Wheeler carried the crown and Marjorie Benjamin and Glen ora Waters were train bearers. The other attendants were the group of older girls of the school and the following tiny flower girls: Beverly Hits. Maud Row ley, Irene Northrope, Beatrice Palmer, Juanita Rhinehart, Mar garet and Billie Ferguson and Dorothy Voss. The third and fourth grade girls and boys and the primary pupils gave numer- ods Swedish, Danish, Norwegian and English folk dances which reflected great credit upon their instructors. They were danced with a vim that won constant ap- plause from the spectators. The Garland Dance by the third and fourth grade girls, the Norwegian Mountain March by the boys Washing the Clothes" by the primary pupils. the pretty Rose Wreath drill by the older girls and Messengers of Spring by girls and boys of the 5th and 9th grades were especially attractive. The latter dance showed one half of the girls representing various flowers while the rest were but terfies and the boys bees. All were costumed appropriately. Edna BidWell and Glen Matheson danced a very pretty special num- Der after this dance.

Look to Your ai1nt
Is It Giving You Protection?

IF CHECKED or cracked, new paint is l needed, and it will be cheaper to paint now-for deterioration costs more than good paint.
 A we'll painted house brings several hun- dred dollars more on sale and more in rent. Keep it painted and it stays new for years.
 The best paint spreads more easily-saves labor cost. It covers more square yards you buy more gallons of cheap paint.
 The best paint then protects the house, if properly applied, from five to ten years longer.
 There is no question as to which costs less. Don't allow surfaces to rot. It costs Jess to paint them.
 The best paints are scientific in formula and preparation. We've made them for 72
