J. B. Kennedy Says in Rejecting Puritan Plea

The Rev. Harry l.. BowlbB. general
secretary of the Lords Day Alliance,
il out to convert the Knights of Colum-
bus to the blue Sunday ideaA He has
sent them a tract entitled "The Truth
About the Blue Law Propaganda"
Mr.. Bowlby picked out John B. Ken
nedy, who interprets to the public
through the press the aims and activi-
ties of the Knights as the man best
qualified to work and pray among the
Sabbath breakers Of the order. He
fired the tract right at Mr.. Kennedy
enclosing it in letter in which he
wrote that he would appreciate your
very careful reading of the same"
Whether Mr.. Kennedy perused the
tract carefully or carelessly or at all
is not known, but he must have read
the letter, because he replied to it.
given out yesterday.
Mr. Bowlby chides his candidate for
blue law missionary amcng the Knights
Of Columbus by quoting from state
ments in the newspapers by Mr.. Ken
nedy, aligning the knights in opposi-
tion to laws imposing the Puritan Sun
day. One Of these statements was par
ticularly to be condemned because it
appeared in The columns of The Boston
Sunday Advertiser, (Which paper" Mr..
Bowlby horriiedly points out "boasts
the largest Sunday circulation of New
England" Sunday newspapers arc
near the top of the list of things to be
suppressed by the, Lords Day Alliance.)
Thinks Multitudes Misled

believing that the Knights of Columbus
have lined up with those who are seek
ing to destroy our Christian Sabbath"
Mr.. Bowlby sorrowfully remarks to Mr..
Kennedy.
Mr.. Bowlby painstakingly cnumer-
ates for Mr.. Kennedy's benefit the i'm
placable and erto-be-converted foes
of the blue laws, presumably in order
that the Lords Day Alliance mission
ary to the heather, should Mr.. Kennedy
heed Mr.. Bowlby's call to service, should
know just what forces Of Beelzebub he
must combat.
First, Mr.. Bowlby set down "the pub
lie press, especially that part which
favors a commercialized Sunday" (Mr.
Kennedy is reported to have instinc-
lively ducked at this, he being a direc-
tor of publicity.) Next in line, the
blue law man went on, were "a num-
Der of hig motion picture news bureaus,
the motion picture trust companies, the
National Sporting Club and certain sew

Then Mr.. Bowlby gets right down to
brass tacks. He wants Mr.. Kennedy to

statement as to where the knights of

Columbus organization. national and
local societies, stands on the question
Of the Christian Sabbath
We very earnestly hope he goes
on, that the knights of Columbus will
not be used as a catspaw to pull the
chestnuts out of the fire for the great
movie corporations and the National
Sporting Club, which we understand
boastS the control of professional prize
fights in seventeen states, and which,
we believe, would be greatly delighted
to see the Sunday prize fight in these
seventeen states and other states OF
the Union"
Mr.. Bowlby says he can see no good
reason why Catholics and Protestants
cannot get together in one big of
fensive to put the blue laws over-"to
battle against commercial Sunday"
is the way he phrases it, He declares
officially represent sixteen evangel-
ical denominations, all of which,
believe, look somewhat less literally
upon the observance of the Sabbath

Mr. Kennedy dashed all Mr.. Bowlby's
hopes that he would line up with the
cohorts of righteousness, as interpreted
by the blue propagandists. In his re-
Fly, after thanking Mr.. Bowlby for his
solicitrde for the state of the souls
of Mr.. Kennedy and the Knights, he
wrote:
States Position of knights
"The position of the Knightss of Co.
lumbus is quite simply stated. We
believe in the Constitution of the
United States, which guarantees life,
liberty and the pursuit of happiness
to all human inhabitants of these
states.
'There should, of course, be a rea-
sonable limitation on the pursuit Of
happiness, as it is conceivable that
some may find happiness in pursuing
others who are engaged in the pur
suit of happiness.
Common sense dictates the prov-
SION Of healthful avenues of diversion

religious duty. | do not consider prize
fights particularly healthful diversion

my belief, that just as Waterloo was
won on the fields of Eton, so the re-
cont war was won on the back lots of
America-and they would be forlorn

were totally prohibited.
Fake sports and indecent movies
are intolerablc at any time. anywhere;
but the clean stuff is appropriate al

Mr. Kennedy added insult to injury
by releasing the letters for publica-

Orders Held Up Pending Assurance
Of Which Way Markets To Go.

Conditions in the textile industry
throughout Georgia are not as bright
as they were few weeks ago because
of the low price of cotton at this time
and the uncertainty as to what the
farmers are going to actually do nj the
way of acreage reduction, according
to the Textile World, of New York,

Cotton Manufacturers Association, was
quoted in the Textile World as declar-
ing that the mills of Georgia are op-
Grating at the present time more on
their nerve than anything else, with
but few orders being received. This
condition, he declared, will exist until
it is definitely known what the Georgia
farmers, and the farmers throughout
the South, will do in the way of cot
ton acreage reduction this year.
