ATTACKS APOSTLES CREED
International Bible Student Speaker Says Popular Interpretation Of ''Hades" is Blasphemy.

That thu wording of the Apostles s
 Creed as it stands, in which the state ment is made, He descended into hades and in three days arose from the dead is a misrepresentation of
 the original creed and a stain on Gods name." was the statement made yesterday by A, Stcponaits of New York. speaking before gathering of
 Lithuanians in Lithuania hall on be- half of the International Bible Stud ents.
 Mir. Steponaitis said the hades re- ferred to in the original creed did not
 refer to the bcttomless pit the place of eternal punishment or whatever tho popular belief of hades really is, but that is was taken from the Hebrew word Sheol, meaning n pit, grave or hidden place. It's meaning in the Apostles creed simply meant that tho body of Christ was confined to tomb for three days, he said. He called upon all Christians and clergy 10 take steps to remedy what he said was "a hlas- phemy of the great and holy name and contrary 10 all the teachings of the Bible"
 He cited as an argument that the Bible quotes Jonah when he emerged from the body of the whale as saying l "out Of the belly of hell, cried I?" that hell meant simply dark or hid i den place.
