PASTOR FACES
\ GIRLS CHARGE
Minister Of Port Byron Methodist
Church Denies Stories in Circu.
lation; Congregation Divided

Appointment of five members Of
a committee to investigate a charge
against the Rev. Archie NJ. Waffle,
pastor OF the Port Byron Methodist
church will be made by DR.. John
T. Jones, district superintendent,
this week.
For two or three weeks rumors
have been spread about Port Byron
concerning a charge that the pas
tor had insulted Alice Barring, aged
20, who had been employed in the
Waffle household. 1t appeared that
the father Of the young woman had
been instrumental in circulating the
statements.
DR.. Jones has been absent about
three weeks, and about the time he
learned Of the trouble at Port Byron
there was a death of a relative that
delayed his return from Indianapo-
lis. He arrived in Rock Island last
night and Immediately took up the
Port Byron situation.
'Mr Waffle is anxious to have
an inquiry made" said Dr.. Jones
"He has stood high in estimation
! Of his associates in church work
and the charge comes as a surprise
Interests of the church require thai
an immediate investigation be made
resulting in either clearing or find
ing the pastor guilty"
| If the finding of the committed
is adverse to the pastor, Mr.. Waffl,
will be suspended until the mex
district conference meets. It will
have full jurisdiction.

Officials of Rock Island Lines Make
Promises to City Attorney;
Call for New Bids.
Especial Moline Serviee.)

Feb. /. 1923, is the date set for
completion of Moline's new passen-
ger station.
At least, officials of the Rock Is
land Lines, with whom City Attor-
ney j. NJ. Johnston conferred in
Chicago, say that the building will
be ready on that date. These same
officials told MIR. Johnston that
ground will be broken at Fourth
avenue and Eighteenth street with
in three or four weeks.
The appropriation authorized by
. the directors of the company for
the Moline station, say officials, was
below the bids for-the new station
and that, it is stated, is the reason
for the last delay in starting work
on the building.
Specifications for the building
will be revised, eliminating features
of the interior construction so as tC
bring the potential cost within the
appropriation figure.
| New bids will be asked for as
soon as the new specifications are
ready, and there will be no fudtheI
| delay after the new bids are receiv.
! ed, according to the latest reports
The Moline project will represent
an investment of approximately
$3.50, 900, including the site and cos1
of the building.

WISE ATTACKS

lnous Rabbi Calls Oberanmsrgau
4 spectacle "Gravs Injustios
,'a--- to Jewish Race.

Chicago, Oct. A.-Dr. Stephen S.
Wise, New York rabbi, speaking
here before q congregation Of Jews.
assailed the Passion Play of Ober-
almmergau as an agency which in-
flames religious and RACIAL preju-
\Hces against tho Jews.
Rabbi Wise said he witnessed the
revival Of the Passion Play after its
suspension during the World war.
"The Passion Play was first pre-
gented by the people of that little
German village In 1633-almost
three centuries ago." he said. "At
that time the Jews of Europe were
Heing widely prosecuted. They
vere pariahs-social outcasts.
1.-THE play reflects the antipathy
FIR the Jew that was so fragrant al
that time. In the three centuries
that have elapsed much Of this "a.
eial hostility was eradicated. Pre-
scented as it is today. l hold tina,
the performance is a grave injus'
Zee to the Jewish race and only
beds the flames Of racial and re-
Agious prejudice" ~
