What Is That To You?
By REV. NJ. N. GAI'DIAN

By REV. M. W. GAUDIAN
 When Peter asked Jesus re- garding the disciple who leaned on his breast at supper. Lord. what shall this man do?' Jesus answered by merely saying those words which I am using for title of this little talk. I shall apply them to a matter which should be of great inter- est to every wide awake citizen today-namely that Of religion.
 l will consider it from two angles. First: What should re- ligion mean to you? Speaking Of religion we nearly always mean something which is super natural or has to do with a su- preme being with whom we feel related, especially when We hesitate 10 do something im- proper because it seems as if we were warned by q mysterious inner voice.
 Religion is. deep feeling of communion with God, but more especially with His holiness. This feeling becomes intense if We really have acted against the warning of our conscience. The sentiment Of unrest after wrong doing impels us to look for quietude.
 Where do We find such rest for our soul? Only in Jesus Christ the God-M Man who said, as our Redeemer and Saviour, Come unto me all ye that la bor, and are heavy laden and will give you rest" Whoever has come unto him with the confession of his sins and has received forgiveness by His spirit, is in peace with God, has tru" religion, namely the fel- loNship with God the Father, through His Son. Jesus Christ, by the communion of the Holy Ghost.
 If you agree with me that re- ligion is this real fellowship with the true triune God. then you will admit that this true re- licion is 10 you. more than n mere matter ot attendance at Bible class, Sunday school or divine service, more than sing ing, praying and listening to sermon, but on the contrary in n church, it is to you the ex- pcrience that in this fellowship with God you have Il commun- ion with the truo Light, Love and Life. Even in darkness of sorrow and death you arc sur- rounded by the heavenly light, you are willing to sacrifice yourself in love to your neigh Dor, you have the eternal life after your bodily death.
 Thanks be to God if you con- sent to Johns testimony 1 Epis- tie 1-5: in this expression of the true religion.

GERMAN ENVOY TO
RETAIN POST HERE
Embassy Announces Ambassador
Will Remain in Washington
Indefinitely.

The retirement of DR.. Otto Weld
feldt, German Ambassador to Wash
ington, which had been announced
for September Is, has been postponed
indefinitely. it was announced today
at the German Embassy.
Ambassador Wiedfeldt, who came
to the United States in May, 1922, on
the understanding with his govern
ment that he would keep his post
for not longer than two years, last
July asked the German government
to recall him. His request was sat
isfied only after the conclusion of the
London economic conference and Sep
tember Is was fixed as the date for
his retirement.
The German Embassy here refused
to discuss the reasons for the
change in the German plans. Diplo-
matte circles here, however hold that
the Ambassador was asked to retain
his post by his government because
the substitution of DR.. Wiedfeldt by
new and inexperienced envoy at
this time of German economic recon
struction would be detrimental to
German interests.

INSPECTOR HELD
IN BRIBERY CASE
William !. Evans Alleged to
Have Taken Money to Leave
Elevator in Building.

Following the arrest last night of
William l. Evans, a District elevator
inspector. on charges of soliciting
and accepting bribe in connection
with the condemnation of an elevator,
inquiry was begun today by dStec-
tives and officials of the building in
spector's Office to determine whether
any similar cases have occurred in
the past.
Evans was taken into custody yes
terday as he left the automobile es-
tablishment Of Oscar H. Robey, 1929 L
street, where, the police say, he took
$3.50 in marked money from Robey.
The inspector was released last night
on $1,000 bond, pending a hearing in
Police Court, probably early next
week.
Following conferences this morning
with Inspector Grant, chief of de-
tectives; Inspector w. S. Shelby, aid
to Maj. Sullivan. and Building In
spector John Oehmann. Engineer Com
missioner Bell stated that the police
with the cooperation of Maj. Och
mann, will investigate to make sure
that there have been no other ir-
regularities.
Investigation Kept Quiet.
Maj. Bell said that he and Com
missioner Rudolph learned OF the
Evans case Thursday afternoon and
assisted the detectives in arranging
the scene at the automobile place
yesterday which eliminated in the
arrest of the inspector. The two
Commissioners handled the matter
directly with the police in order to
keep the investigation as quiet as
possible until the arrest was made.
Building Inspector Oehmann did
not learn of the case until this morn
ing. After talking with Commission
er Bell Maj. Oehmann said he would
cooperate with the police in the
further inquiry that Is being made
as a precaution.
Detectives Keck and Vermillion
were assigned the case. Robey told
them yesterday morning that Evans
had come to him after inspecting the
freight elevator in the building and
told him that it had to be torn out
and a new one installed. This, Robey
told the detectives, was ordered in
spite of the fact that the elevator
seemed to be in perfect running order.
Cost of New One.
Then, according to Robeys ac-
count to the detectives, Evans asked
what would be the cost of installing
a new one, and when told it would
come to between $4,000 and $4,000,
Evans replied:
II think 1 can leave the old one
in for 10 per cent of that sum-"
Robey asked for time to think it
over, and notified Engineer Commits
sioner Bell. The investigation was
set on foot. Robey met Evans yes
terday. Detectives had supplied Robey
with marked bills. Evans finally came
to an agreement to accept $3.50. Keck
and Vermillion arrested Evans as he
walked away from Robey's Office, and
they say he admitted soliciting and
accepting a bribe.
I'm guilty" is the statement Keck
alleges Evans made to him following
the arrest.
Evans is A years old and lives at
1882 Evarts street northeast. He is a
veteran employe of the District gov
ernment, having been in the service
for 20 years.

3TO TURN DEATH SWITCH.
Georgia Wardens to Divide Re-
sponsj bility.

MILLEDGEVILIE, Ga, September
13.-Three switches will be used to-
day in putting to death here the first
condemned Grimm n in this State to
die in the electric chair. Final tests
were given the death chair yesterday
When Che law, which substitute es
the electric chair for the gallows, was
passed by the recent Georgia legisla-
ture. it was stipulated that the cur
rent should be turned on "by the
warden" of the State farm. AS there
are three wardens at this institution,
the prison commission solved what
promised at first to be a puzzle, by
ordering installed three switches. one
to be manipulated by each warden.
Only one of them. however, will
control the death dealing current and
neither warden will know which of
themselves sends the criminal to his
doom The man to die today Is How
ard Hinton, negro, convicted in De-
kalb County for criminal assault.

PROPOSAL WINNING
League Members Rapidly
Fall in Line With Peace
Sanction Plans.
Ry the Associated Press

NY the Associated Press.
GENEVA, September 13.-France's
idea that general world security can
be attained only if each member of
what it can in the way of sanctions
against an aggressor state seems to
be working out at Geneva.
The countries, led by England, are
coming forward one after another and
expressing willingness to give of
what they have to the cause of peace
England her fleet, France and the
other nations possessing large land
and air forces the weight of their
military strength. and the smaller
countries which are weak in arma-
meats the full measure of their fnan-
cial and economic assistance.
Just how this general attitude to
contribute to the sanctions can be
whipped into general protocol or
convention is the problem now i'm
mediately before the league assem-
bly,. One problem relating to COM
pulsory arbitration is already partly
solved in that subcommittee Of
jurists has decided that it is entirely
compulsory arbitration clause of the
World Court of Justice and at the
same time make reservations thereto.
nave OuArautcSs
DR.. Loudon. the Dutch minister to
France, opened today's discussion OF
the assembly disarmament commits
sion, declaring the delegates must at
any price avoid making war admIs
sible after the league council had
found itself unable to reach unani
nous decision on difference be-
tween two members.
DR.. Loudon declared Holland did
not approve of regional agreements,
but he said she could readily under
stand the French viewpoint on this
question as we'll as on the proposed
treaty of mutual assistance, which
Holland equally disapproved. Enough
sanctions already existed under the
league covenant, DR.. Loudon de-
clared, and his nation saw no need
of going further along that line.
DO not let US be discouraged II
we cannot come to the elaboration
of a mutual assistance treaty, but
rather let US point out to the public
what real progress we have already
made in international solidarity" he
added.
Tells of Polish Fears.
Foreign Minister Skrzynski Of Po-
land explained his country's fears for
her security and her need of assur-
ances on this point, because of her
geographic situation, bordering as
she does upon two great states not
members of the league. He declared
the Permanent Court of international
Justice did not have the necessary
to define an aggressor state
and that some other body must be
found to perform that function.
Desmond Fitzgerald, foreign min
lister of the Irish Free State in a
humorous speech, said Ireland had
reduced it's army as soon as a GER
tain definite danger was removed"
Both Arthur Henderson and Lord
Parmoor Of the British delegation
smiled appreciatively when Mr.. Fitz-
gerald said Ireland stood for "se-
curity by arbitration" and hoped for
better relations between our very
old friend. France, and our new
friend. England"
Emilio de Palacios of Spain de-
clared his country accepted the arbi-
tration idea. but opposed that of re-
gional agreements. Spain, he said,
believed the league covenant
