8 RUM SHIPS TAKEN
OFF NEW ENGLAND
Coast Guard Breaks Up
Liquor Rows Near Cape
Cod and Cape Anne.
BY the Associa ted Press.

BY the Associated Press.
BOSTON, October 27.-The rum rows
off Cape Cod and Cape Ann were
scattered today as result of their
first major engagement with the pro-
hibition enforcement navy and eight
prizes were tied up at docks here and
at Gloucester and New London, Conn.,,
with more than a score of prisoners.
The Coast Guard cutter Tampa yes
terday brought into Boston Harbor the
Newfoundland two-masted schooner
Marjorie E. Bachman, rum laden, and
five American motor boats.
Another motor boat was taken into
Gloucester and one into New London.
100000 in Liquor.
The eight prizes, with their crews
and contraband liquor, valued at
100000, represented a weeks opera
tions of the Tampa, assisted by a
squadron of fast rum chaserS off
Block Island, Cape Cod and Cape Ann
The captured vessels were taken in
a running battle Friday, in which the
Tampa used her three inch guns and
pursued a scattering rum fleet for
more than an hour near Stellwagon
Banks, 20 miles off the coast, at a
point half way between Capes Cod
and Ann. In the fleet of rum ships
were more than a dozen vessels, ac-
cording to Coast Guard officers, in
cluding several British and French
craft. A number of American motor
boats plying between rum row and
the shore were surprised by the
raiders.
Some of the speedier vessels disre-
garded warning shots from the
Tampa and on these the smaller boats
of the enforcement fleet opened fire
with machine guns and rifles. Numer-
Gus chases proceeded in the haze of
the early morning. None of the rum
vessels returned the Coast Guard fire.
officers said that more of the rum
fleet could have been captured had
the Coast Guard force been willing
to fire directly at their quarry.
The Marjorie E. Bachman is a new
vessel, registered from ST. Johns,
Newfoundland. She carried $50 cases
of liquor, valued at $4,000.

DENY Ia TOILETTE
IS PROGRESSIVE"
Fifty-0ne Backers of Roose-
veIt in 1912 AssaiI Use of
Label of Party.
BY the Associated Press

BY the Associated Press.
NEW YORK, October 27-A num-
ber of supporters of the Progressive
party of 1912 last night gave out a
statement urging the election of
President Coolidge and earnestly ap-
pealing to the Progressives of 1912
to vote as they know in their hearts
Theodore Roosevelt would vote"
I'VE affirm with complete assur-
ance," the statement said, that he
would be vigorously supporting Cal
vim Coolidge. who eXemplifies the ele-
mental principles of public and
private morality, which shaped the
great llabors of Theodore Roosevelt
in behalf of democratic civilization
and human progress"
I'VE believe" the statement added,
that in his devotion to American
institutions and to the highest ideals
of American life he upholds the faith
of our former leader"
Call La Toilette Menace.
The statement, which is signed by
53 men and women of prominence in
the Progressive movement of 1912,
follows:
LAS supporters of the Progressive
party in 1912, we reaffirm our alleg-
lance to the principles of popular
Government and social and industrial
justice. which inspired that great
movement.
1--WE declare our unwavering belief
in the doctrines which were taught
and lived by Theodore Roosevelt, and
which still remain a chart for our
guidance. We denounce the use of
the name progressive by Senator La
Toilette, the socialists and other ex-
tremists as deliberate attempt to
delude progressives into believing
that the La Toilette alliance is per-
petuation of the historic party of
1912. The Progressive platform then
stood squarely against socialism and
all forms of extremist doctrine as
Roosevelt stood against La Toilette,
whom he declared to be one of the
most potent enemies of this country
and a most sinister enemy of De-
mocracy.'
Roosevelt Is Cited.
IF Roosevelt were here today, the
Socialists would never have had the
name. Moreover, his whole life is
testimony that with all the vigor of
his powerful mentality and the all
ardor of his great soul would be
fighting the anti-Democratic, anti
American forces, under whatever
title they chose to conduct their in
sidious campaign"
unless President Coolidge gains a
clear majority in the electoral col
lege the presidential choice will lie
with the present Congress, elected
long before the existing issues arose.
and in effect Senator La Toilette and
the other extremists in that body
will be able to name the next Presi-
dent of the United States"

Frank James of frontier days, Frank
James, a Virginia farmer, conquers
with a gun. When his bride ran
away after three days, deciding she
could not love him, he went to her

her, hid her in a swamp, and now
she loves him.
She told her experiences today.

and brother, are in a hospital recov-

by James when they opposed him last

slammed in his face.
Lost for 20 Hours.
"We spent that night in a shack
in Buck Trout Swamp" said Mrs.
James today, following the surrender
of her husband and his release on
s2,4OO bail. "Realizing the futility
of holding out against the police,
although supplied with food and
blankets, my husband sent me to find
out from passersby at the main road
if my father or brother were dead. 1t

ported that they were alive and prob

Laymen's League, and Mrs. Oscar Gal

lance, is scheduled to discuss THE
outlook for Religion" Following the
meeting the visitors will be received
in Pierce Hall and the Hale Parish
House, comprising wings of the new
church building. The meeting to-
tion WCAP.
Auditorium Is Packed.
Assisted by large number of
visiting clergymen from Unitarian
churches in various parts of the
country, Rev. DR.. Samuel A. Eliot,
president of the American Unitarian
Association, officiated last night at
the dedication of the handsome struc-
ture in the presence of Il congrega-
: ton of dignitaries, both church and
civil, and of laiety that filled to ca
pacity the main auditorium.
The ceremonies were much the
same as those conducted at the dedi-
cation of the church's last house of
worship at Fourteenth and L. streets,
January 90, 1878. Invocation was pro-
nounced by Rev DR.. Clarence Edgar
Rice of the Church of Our Father The
first Scripture lesson was given by Rev.
DR.. Jason Noble Pierce, president or
the Washington Federation or
Churches. and the second lesson by
/ Rev. Clara Cook Helvie of the First
Unitarian Society, Moline, Ill. The
urayer of dedication was offered by
Rev. Eugene Rodman Shippen, pastor
of the Second Church in Boston. APP
propriate organ and vocal music was
= interspersed.
Wants Aggressive Religion.
In his sermon of dedication DR..
Eliot called for a dynamic, aggressive
religion. as opposed to "a negative,
uuerulous kind of religion" that has
mo appeal to young Americans any
more than a religion of theological
dogmatism or archaic formularies."
'.1,hey tell me that there is great
deal Of indifference nowadays toward
religion" DR.. Eliot said. Il do not
myself encounter many evidences OF
that so-called indifference. Indiffer-
ence there is in regard to certain
theories and opinions about religion
and toward certain institutions that
more or loss represent religion, but
never, it seems to me, was there a
generation so eager in its discussion
of the mysteries Of life and death and
creation and destiny as that which Is
growing up among us.
IL. however; we assume that there
Is some real indifference. think /
know tho reason for it. 1t Is not

because religion makes too great a
demand upon faith, but too little.
Religion, as commonly interpreted,
is too timid, too static, not venture
some enough. Christianity is often
presented too much as resignation
and rest when it ought to be pre-
sented as a motive power, as an in
Centive to enterprise and discovery.
Christianity for this generation can
not be primarily a religion of sub
mission and conformity. It's distinc-
tive glory must be it's capacity to
promote initiative to stimulate us not
to accept conditions, but to create
and control conditions
THE spirit of America is undis-
couraged, eXpectant, eager for risks,
for surprises; sensitive to the unat-
tanned. 1t is not interested in a re-
ligion that mainly consists of Don't
do this and Don't do that 1t wants
a religion that is a challenge to fore
sight and fortitude. To it the great
commandments are not those that be-
gin Thou shalt not'-the value of
any religion must be in what it as
serts, not in what it denies; in what
it constructs, not in what it destroys;
in what it puts into life, not in what
it takes out. I am not saying that
error and falsehood are not to be
contradicted or that we are not to
assail and do away with things that
dim the beauty and glory of life-but
that the chief and enduring value of
religion is in the things presented
not so much for our acceptance as
for our achievement"
Sermon by DIR. Pierce.
Rev. DR.. Ulysses G. B. Pierce, for
% years pastor of All Souls Church,
preached the sermon at the opening
service yesterday morning, taking as
his topic The Man Who Fed on
Flowers" Selections on the new Bern
ard r. Green memorial organ and
vocal offerings by Charles Trow-
bridge Tittmann composed the musi-
cal program.
In the afternoon an informal recep-
ton and tea was held in the Emerson
assembly room and the Hale parish
house by the Women's Alliance, i'm
mediately following which there was
observed a "quiet hour" with music
on the Green memorial organ.
The program today included a
sightseeing tour about the city for
the benefit of visiting clergymen and
friends, beginning at 2.30 o'clock this
afternoon. The Womens Alliance
gave luncheon in Pierce Hall before
the tour.
A devotional service, led by Rev.
DIR. Louis G. Cornish, secretary of the
American Unitarian Association, will
