LAYMEN'S MEETING
WAS GREAT SUCCESS
SPLENDID GATHERING FROM
BAPTIST CHURCHES OF
TERRELL COUNTY.

A splendid gathering OF laymenl
from the Baptist churches OF Terrell
county met at Dawson Sunday 10 con-
slider the layman in his relation to the
Sunday school, Col. A. w. Evans, OF
Sandersville, discussed the subject,
"The Lay11ran Making His Message
Felt" Mr. W. L. Roebuck, OF Cordele,

est the Layman in Sunday School.
Rev. Wallace Ware, of Cordele, had
for his subject, What the Layman i'll
Sunday School Means to the Pastor
and Church" DR.. Weaver, OF Mercer
university, discussed the subject, THE
Lavman in Christian History" 1t was
generally agreed by all present that
the day was very pleasant and profit
able one for all.
A special feature Of the meeting was
the open conference on the general
subject OF the day. In this part OF the
program it was learned that % per
cent OF the Baptist laymen OF Terrell
county are actively engaged in Sunday
school work The men went back to
their respective churches with deter
mination to change the color OF this
before another year passes by.
The dinner served by the Woman'S
Missionary Society was especially fine
and enjoyed by ALL The order and
rapidity with which it was served is
new record in tifs particular line OF
service.
At the open conference it was unani-
mously voted that the laymen hold an
other meeting the fifth Sunday in this
month and at the invitation of the Sar-
dis brethren the meeting will be held
at that historic old church. The pastors
of the churches of Terrell county were
appointed as a committee to arrange
the program. 1t is supposed that the
pastors will not place themselves on
the program, but will make If a lay
mems meeting indeed.
DR.. Weaver spoke to a splendid con
gregation on Sunday night at the Bap-
fist church. His subject was. The
Unfinished Task" The main point was
that we have not finished the task OF
educating our people along Christian
lines DR.. Weaver further pointed out
that Mercer with present growth and
immediate possibilities of becoming the
seat of the great Baptist university OF
the south as we'll as the Baptist semi
nary of the southeast is in large meas
ure carrying towards completion the
incomplete task of educating our forces
along the right lines.

Few Jap Toys
Japan has made very little pro-
gress in building up business in
the American toy market, largely
because her toys do not withstand
rough usage such as they get from
husky American children
In 1913, Germany exported $24,-
500, 730 worth of toys, about third
of the total coming to the United
States, which buys more toys than
any other country.
Before the war. about 30 per
cent of the toys sold in America
came from abroad. The war shut
off shipments from Germany, and
America built up its own toy in
dustry overnight The problem
now is whether our quantity-pro-
duction of toys by factories can
hold its own against the German
system of toys made in thousands
Of homes by workmen who have in
herited their trade.
Considering general business
the holiday toy trade is
fairly well. Looks like a
good Christmas for the Riddles.

GERMANY WINS
BACK LEAD IN
TOY INDUSTRY
German Competition Is Big Prob
lem of Americas Newborn
Industry.

Chicago, Dec. e.-The American
toy industry, which was built up
during the war, is in a life-and-
death struggle with German-made
toys.
German toy statesmen claim they
are regaining their lost trade with
America SO rapidly that American
Riddles this Christmas will get
about 10 per cent as many German
toys as before the war.
The figure is exaggerated, accord
ing to American toy makers. They
admit, though, that German compe-
ution is their big problem.
German toys are underselling
the American product 30 to so per
cent. Nothing exceptional about
that. Germans are underselling
Americans in hundreds of lines,
right in our own market. Low val

change, increasingly gives the Ger

Returns to Cleveland From Chicago and Be-
gins Sending Out Official Notices of the
Walkout Order to Approximately 300 Cen
eral Chairmen Of His Organization.
fBy THE ASSOCIATED PRESS,

Mr. Lee said that the strike was
in protest against the 12 per cent
wage reduction of the railroad
labor board, effective last July 1
He explained that when the five
railroad organization chiefs met
with a committee of five railroad
managers in Chicago Friday ia
consider this wage reduction and
were informed by the railroad
managers that a further 10 per
cent wage reduction would be re-
quested, the brotherhood chiefs
gave up hope of an amicable set
tlement and the strike order re-
suited.
Grand officers of the Brother
hood of Engineers were arriving
tonight for a conference tomorrow
with grand Chief w. S. Stone. at
which they will receive final in
structions before departing for
their districts.

Washington, Oct. 16.--Federal
action in connection with the
threatened railroad strike still was
confined today to conferences
brought about by President Hard
ing, between the Interstate Com
merce commission and the public
representative of the railway =
Dor board.
Consideration of the major prob
lens presented by prospective
paralysis of the carrier system
with winter near, will be resumed
at 9 p. m. tomorrow by the two
government agencies which have
in charge practically complete reg
ulation of railroad affairs.
Members Are Silent.
Members of the conference
maintained silence today on the
basis on which the problem would
be discussed, leaving as the only
hint the White House statement
that President Harding had
deemed it necessary to bring to-
gether the commission and public
members of the boards.
The impression given today was
that having turned the matter over
to the agencies established by law
to handle it, President Harding
would await the outcome of the
conferences. ...
In laborrirrles. however. the ex-
pectation was expressed that the
legal branch of the government
would be utilized.
II presume that the next
thing will he tho initnletion,1
President Nj. III. Johnston. of
the International Association
of MachinistS remarked.
He did not give the basis for his
expectation and there were no in
dications from other sources that
government officials were prepar-
ing to appeal to the courts
President Harding's engagement
for the day did not include inter-
views with any cabinet members
whose official duties would have
made the strike an immediate is
sue in their department, Attorney
General Daugherty and Postmas-
ter General Hays were both out of
town, the latter having left word
that there would be no statement
on the strike before Monday.
Interference With Mails.
In view of the statement of rec
ognized leaders of the railroad un-
ions that no special consideration
would be shown mail trains, offic-
ial Washington looked to the post
office department for the first
defensive" move. 1t was recalled
today that the government had
not been called on to meet organ
ized interference with its mail
traffic since President Cleveland's
administration.
Members of congress, outside of
the committees having to do with
transportation and utilities dis
played unusual interest in the sit
uation, because, it was said, of
the prominence given to the posi-
bility of reduced freight rates. At
least one important "bloc" has
gone on record as being of the
opinion such reduction was the
most necessary of the several sug-
gested steps, looking to return of
business to normal,

Washington, Oct. 16.--What il
the agricultural bloc?" What Is
the new and strange power whicl
seems to exert SO complete a con-
troll over congress?
No new factor in national poll
tics in a decade has figured so eX'
tensively or so senSationaly in the
news: no element in the congress
has been able to hold such sway
over the destinies of national leg
islation. 1t has brought the Euro
pean national bloc to the western
hemisphere and it is following the
bloc" methods of old world par
liaments. 1t has set Washington
by the ears. 1t has called forth a
statement from President Harding
that he opposes class legislation
and group control. 1t has upset
some of the best laid plans of the
present republican leaders.
But the agricultural bloc is not
wholly republican, not by any
means. In fact, it depends for its
effectiveness upon democratic
sympathy and support. Wheat and
cotton have bridged the gap be-
tween the great northwest and the
"solid south"
The group of senators in virtual
control of legislation in the upper
branch of congress, known as the
farmer bloc, consists of not more
than twenty men, the majority OF
whom, as stated, are republicans
all of whom hail from agricultural
communities. They are under the
leadership Of Senator Capper
Kansas, who, created the bloc;
ccnator Kenyon. of Iowa, who
came to 1t in early days and
strengthened it immensely, and
who leads the democratic allies
within it's ranks. Kenyon and
Capper, republicans, are directing
heads and moving force OF the
group.
The North Dakota-Idaho, called
the partisan league, seems to
have started, in a way, somewhat
as tho agricultural bloc has start
ed. Instead of being non-partisan.
the bloc, however, is bipartisan.
Senator Capper, create: of the
bloc, comes from Kansas and Is
pioneer champion of the farmer.
In his hon. state he is editor and
owner Of string of powerful farm
ma gaines and parers. HE is

Assails Hearst Newspapers.
"Hearst's New York papers have
also attacked the khan, not from
their usual and often repeated mo-
tive of being the only savior of the
country, but purely from a motive
of circulation, as some of those con-
nected with the Hearst organization
said that their circulation fell as
that of the World grew on account
of the ku Klux stories and there
fore Hearst must start a so-called
expose of the khan.
Just as Judas betrayed Christ
for thirty pieces of silver, SO there
was found by the Hearst paper,
former klansman who for money
betrayed his oath. My informa-
tion is that the Hearst papers paid
this man $4,000 cash and 500
week as long as he worked on the
story and also agreed to protect
him from any damage suits and
other legal action resulting from
his libeious stories, these stories
being false from start to finish.
Hearst and tho World.
"The Hearst papers have charged
the klan with being un-American.
This charge is travesty when it Is
remembered that during the war
aud even after the United States
entered the world war, the Hearst
papers were on account of their

Colonel Simmons testying before house rules committee

Washington, Oct. 16.-(Special
When Col. William j. Simmons
imperial wizard of the Ku Klux
Klan. appeared before the house
rules committee to tell that body
about his organization, he not only
denied each and all of the charges
brought against the klan, but took
occasion to give what he considers
the reasons for the attacks upon
him and his order by the Hearst
newspapers and the New York
World. Concerning the newspaper
attacks, he said:
The attacks against the klan
were originated and started by the
New York World, which is owned
or controlled by Jew, Mr.. Pulit-
ger, whose main purpose is circula-
ton and revenue.
"Fhe circulation manager of that
paper stated to one of the news
paper trade publications. the Editor
and Publisher of New York, which
published this statement, that the
Ku Klux attacks had added 100000
circulation to the World, and ad-
ditional advertising
"The World, according to their
own statement, spent over four
months with unlimited resources al
its command in an investigation of
the Knights of the ku KluX klan,
using trained investigators news
paper men, and covering every sec
tion of the country. In the face of
this careful investigate ton, the World
has not been able to prove any
thing detrimental TO the khan. ex-
cept their own colored views OF un-
runor and expressing, the
attitude of its jewish ownership.
Says Khan Was Growing.
"The World saw that the Khan
was the fastest growing, purely
Protestant, non-political organiza-
ton in the United States. The
World knew that when YOU strike
at a mans religion and fraternal
organizations you are striking at
the very fiber of his being and that
then all political affiliations and
party lines are forgotten.
