Of the cats habit of bringing every

yesterday afternoon at a meeting IN
the Central High School Auditorium.
Stories are innumerable of the
active practice and encouragement of
law breaking by officials high in the

cannot expect other communities to
respect and obey the Law If the
capital of the nation itself is a
leader among tie law breakers.
Washington has set the bad example,
and 1t is for Washington to repair
the damage"
Gov. Pinchot declared that the
President should take personal charge
of suppressing the whisky rebellion"
as George Washington did in his day.
He said that in his judgment two
steps should be taken to bring about
enforcement of the prohibition law.

First. he said, the federal enforce

out of politics.
Second. the head of the federal pro-

be placed directly under the Presi-

TREASON TO drink,

Bishop Says Nation Has No
Place for Those Who
FIOut Its Laws.

Law-breakers were branded as
traitors by Rt. Rev. James e. Free
man. Bishop OF Washington. in an
address yesterday afternoon at Tenn
pie Heights. given under auspices OF
the Grand Lodge of Masons.
Bishop Freeman took as his text
verses In the book OF Numbers
wherein is recounted the desire OF
the children of Cad and Reuben to
break away from the children OF
Israel and remain where they were,
rather than to go on into the prom
ised land.
Biblical Reference.
We have always q group like the
children of Cad and Reuben" Bishop
freeman declared, who are unwilI-
ing to follow the recognized authori-
ties and laws and who wish to break
away from their fellows. They do
not want TO go to the promised land
put want to stay where they are.
Foday we have those who are sat-
lsned with things as they are. who
want to break away from the consti-
tuted laws and who constantly talk
about their personal rights IF we
want TO drink they say. we will
drink: We know where we can get
1t and no one can stop us
brand these as traitors. If they
want to do all these things they
should go down to Mexico. The pur-
suance of the so-called personal
rights in the face of the law is q
grave and serious thing, not to be
tolerated

Koreans Planned Uprising.
The correspondent also is informed
that the Koreans were prepared to
stage an uprising throughout Japan
on September 8, following the disas-
ter, and that the plot served to pre-
cipitate the action of the radicals.
Japanese radicals. however, took con-
troll of the Korean situation and that
agitation proved to be a minor, incl
dent, the seriousness of which has
been greatly exaggerated.
For several days following the
proclamation of q soviet republic in
Toxic radical leaders continued their
activities and a red regime really
=
borers during the period Of confusion
which existed before army and gov
ernment authorities became active.
First information concerning de-
velopmentS in the anarchist soviet
plot became known on September 16,
when it was announced that Gen.
Fukuda removed Lieut.. Amakasu and
ordered him court-martfaled for caus-
ing the death Of Osugi and two other
anarchist leaders, believed to have
been specially dangerous to the gov
ernment during the great calamity.
The method, time and place Of the
killings are unmentioned in the off,
cial announcements. The correspond
ent has been told, however, that
Lieut.. Amakasu. after long search,
located the home of Osugi and, enter
ing II at night, shot both Osugi and
his wife down In cold blood. Discov-
ering Osugi's nephew in an adjoining
room, he is said to have strangled
him with his hands.
Facts Leaked Out.
The affair doubtless would have
ended there If the facts had not leak
ed out in gone manner, forcing the
government to take action. It is i'm
possible to believe that Lieut.. ANA
kasu acted without instructions from
martial-law headquarters. 1t is sig
nificant, however, that the death OF
OSuBi HTcu lie Ieu Ec6Hne. me SouH6
gendarmerie officer apparently struck
in the right place.
The preliminary hearing In the court
martial was finished and the official
accusation against Lieut.. Amakasu filed
on September "a. His forma trial
opened late last week. 1t is safe
to predict that the facts in the case
will not be disclosed, and that while
minor officials will be forced to pay
a penalty, those higher up. who are
really responsible, will not go en-
tirely unprnished.

the pictures beautifully made and

The origin OF tho oberammerEau
Passion Play is interesting in Bavaria
at Oberammergau # had been the
custom TO ho'd a passion play de-
scribing the lie and death of Jesus
Christ since 1853. Because that
place was exempt from a fearful
plague which swept many to death
in ne~l6hborinE countries but went
past them. tho people OF that city
promised they woull produce the
Passion Play every ten years. This
they have done except in 1890. but
in 1921, they put on the play. The
delay was caused by the ravages Of
the war through which the country
had been passing.
DR.. and Mrs. DUNN visited that
place last summer and secured pic
lures that have been made into slides.
