PIedging Tenth of In
come to Church.
By the Associated Press.

JACKSONVILLE. Fla, May 90
Three times as many men among
southern Baptists have adopted a
of their contributions to religious
work as were doing this a year ago,
it was announced in the annual re-
port of the laymen's missionary move
ment to the southern Baptist con-
vention. made public here today by
DR.. ]. T. Henderson of Knoxville, sec
rotary of the movement.
The goal of the organization is a
half million tithers among southern
Baptists and to induce business men
to take a larger part in church ac-
tivities.
The Iaymen's movement, student re-
ligious activities. Baptist city coun-
ellis, women's work, the negro the
illogical seminary and allied topics
took up the greater part of today
sessions. The question of establish
ing great south-wide Baptist uni
versity has been deferred for another
year.
Enrolment o. messengers to the
convention from the Baptist churches
throughout the south has now reach
ed approximately 400, it was an
nounced by the secretaries, and the
was that of last night, when a crowd
estimated at more than 5000 attend
ed the home mission board services
with many seated on benches on the
lawn outside the tabernacle.
The sixty-sixth convention has been
marked by devotional services dur
ing the luncheon recess conducted by
the Rev. Benjamin Cox, of Memphis
aided by evangelical singers. The
services. started as an experiment,
have drawn large crowds each day.
Another departure has been the for
nation of an association by ex-serv-
ice men attending the convention.
A resolution requesting congress
sional action to modify the Chinese
exclusion act land stop the 4persecu-
ton of Chinese Christians in the
United States by officials of our gov
eminent" was introduced by Con-
gresham W. d. Upshaw of Georgia,
at the request Of F. s. Yeager of Vine
Grove. KY.
The resolution was referred to a
special committee. Mr.. wager. who
has lived for many years on the Pa
cific coast, explained the resolution
by declaring that many Chinese
legally in this country and who have
become identified with Christian
churches. have been illegally deported
ties and been detrimental to the
progress Of the foreign missions"
The report of the interboard COM
mission on student activities was read
by Frank H. Lavell Of Memphis
Tenn, Southern Baptist student SOC
rotary. and was adopted by the con-
vention. This report of the laymen's
missionary movement was then pre-
scented by Secretary Henderson. II

TT is worthy, to note that in Chi

day to the satisfaction Of both land
lord and tenant.
AT the time the extension OF the
Ball rent act was granted from Octo-
Der, %, 1921, to May 20. 1922. it was
the understanding that no further ex-
tension would be asked for. and even
the distinguished author Of the bill
was committed at that time to no
further extenstona
The proponents of the extension
as an excuse for Its re-enactment set
forth the fact that the coming peace
conference made It necessary that the
act be extended for seven montha
and that after the termination OF the
peace conference 1t would not be nee
essary to have it further extended

act had no effect whatever upon the

equity in the settlement of a per-
picking dispute. which has disturbed
not merely the relations of Chile and
Peru. but the equilibrium of the
South American continent.
Bolivia, for example. wants an out
let to the sea through the very ter
ritories of Tacna and africa. which
are the basis of the Peruvian
quarrel Some diplomats aver it
would be OF more use to Bolivia than
either Chile or Peru. There is
reason to believe that national pride
ter than the intrinsic value of the
provinces.
"Interference, of Pride.
Incidentally there's a little national
pride on the side Of the Washington
administration. 1t was this dispute
which nearly got into the jurisdiction
of the league of nations, and there's
considerable debate still over the al
legged willingness of the Wilson ad-
ministration to let the league dispose
OF the matter and the unwillingness
of the Harding administration to let
the European league intervene in any
American questions lest precedent
for the future be established.
Chile and Peru are both members of
the league of nations. If they settle
their dispute here through the good
offices of the United States the Wash
ington government will have estab-
lished its prestige as a mediator not
only in a far eastern tangle, such as
was involved in the Shantung prov
iuce, but in the healing of q sore in
another part OF the world where, in
deed, the. interests of the United
states are far nearer and of more
delicate concern.

CHAPTER VI

There was no specific reason why
Robert Fairchlld should follow Mau-
rice Rodaine and the young woman
who had been described to him as the
daughter of Judge Richmond, who
ever he might be. Resentment was in
his heart-resentment that the family
Of ROdaine should be connected In
some way with the piqusnt, mysteri-
Gus little person he had helped out of
a predlcament on the Denver road the
day before. And, to his chagrin, the
very fact that there was a connection
added a more sinister note to the es.
capade of the exploded tire and the
pursuing sheriff; as he walked along,
his gaze far ahead, Fairchild found
himself wondering whether there
could be more than mere coincidence
in 1t all, whether she was a part of
the ROdaine schemes and the ROdaine
trickery. whether

Of him on the corner. She was the
same girl there could be no doubt of
that. and he ragged inwardly as she
chatted and chaffed with the man who
looked down upon her with a smiling
air of proprietorship which instilled
instant rebellion IN Fairchilds heart.
Nor did he know the reason for that,

Word received from Mr.. and Mrs.
Geo. Caldwell, who left Phoenix sew
eral weeks ago for Chicago, is to the
effect that Mrs. Caldwell still is suf-
fering with her afflicted foot. Some
of the best specialists in Chicago have
been called to treat her, but no i'm
provement is noted. Last week she
was moved from Chicago to the home
of Mr.. Caldwells brother in Milwau-
kee, Wis. where she is reported as
resting easily and doing about as well
as could be expected. Mr.. and Mrs.
Caldwell's many friends in Arizona
and California hope for her speedy
recovery.
