sion, told his congregation Sunday
He made a plea for a thorough
house-cleaning by the churches.
There is a need of a new religion
if the church docs not clean house
of all its fetishes," he said. "The
fundamentalists in religion believe
that they will attain happiness in the
world to come through belief in the
miraculous conception of Christ, his
death and ascension into heaven. The
theory is as unworthy of modern intel.
ligence as would be the belief today
in the theories of the Egyptian priests

"We cannot adhere TO fables in reli.

of today are not going TO believe what
their grandparents did. The mind
must contribute something to reli,

CHALLENGES RIGHT

Prohibition Candidate
Charges Gross Election
Irregularities.

Boston. FEB. 90. - The right of
Senator Henry Cabot Lodge TO his
seat in the United States Senate
was challenged yesterday when Com
rad W. Crooker. acting as an at.
torney for John A. Nichols, defeated
prohibition candidate for United
States senator in tie recent election,
presented long statement 10 Cover
nor Cox, in which it was urged that
it was the governors statutory duty
to recall and vacate the certificate Of
election issued to Senator Lodge, and
10 forthwith issue precepts for a new
senatorial election.
The prohibition candidate ran third
in election returns TO Colonel William
4. Castor. Democratic candidate, and
Senator Lodge.
The appeal 10 the governor was
based upon an alleged general viola
ton of the mandatory provisions Of
the election law in the conduct OF
the senatorial election. so "as TO
constitute an entire failure on the
part of the voters to legally elect any
candidate"
After careful inquiry | find that
in ut least 167 towns and thirteen
cities of the commonwealth, the statu-
tory requirements as TO bipartisan
appointment of certain election Of
ficers were flagrantly violated" the
statement said. In all these cities
and towns the election boards were
overloaded with Republicans, and in
many cases representation to the
other leading political party was en-
tirely denied.
