PEPPY, YOUNG
EVANGELIST is
HERRIN ANGEL
Peace Replaces Feuds in
Bloody Williamson
County,

BIZ United Press
HERRIN, III, Aug. 21.-Harsh
words and gun teting have given
away to psalm reading and Bible
carrying in this section-once known
as Bloody Williamson County"
And Howard S. Williams, tall and
peppery evangelist. once a news
paperman, is hailed as the peace
negotiator.
williams, who halls from Hatties-
burg, Miss. came here some three
months after the last memorable
street duel, in which Glenn Young,
Ora Thomas and two other men had
been shot down. Theirs was just
another chapter Of the period Of
hate which has swept the county
since 1922.
Foes Shake Hands
Williams opened a small revival
service, as many another evangelist
had done. The town at first paid
little attention to this stranger who
smoke Of the Brotherhood Of Man"
But as Williams unlimbered the
crowd increased. Khan and anti
Khan supporters both started attend
ing the tabernacle where Williams
held sway. The conversions began
to mount.
Then one day William surprised
everyone by walking into the lobby
Of the cigar store where Glenn Young
had fought his last battle. With very
few words the evangelist started his
little group Of helpers to singing a
hymn. There was brief talk and a
prayer.
After that Herrin and Williamson
County belonged to the youthful
evangelist. Stores closed at noon for
an hour so that everyone could at
tend the MONDAY services. The
night services were packed.
Revival Services
Sheriff George Galligan, whose
name a few months ago evoked a
hasty oiling of pistols, came into
town unmolested. His deputies
walked at his side. They visited
the tabernacle and following the
service some 5000 persons walked up
to shake the hand Of the sheriff.
Both khan and anti-klan supporters
Joined in the general hand shaking.
s9Williams has closed his meeting
here and departed. However the
town continues peace bent, with eyes
turning toward improving the land
rather than pumping off" oppon-
ents.

WAS NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS.
Indiana Dry Director Silent Regard
ing His Future Status.


at was generally understood at
Washington that the Rev. Ewing
would be named" Bert @. Morgan,
Indiana Federal prohibition director,
said when told Of the appointment
of the new acting director for this
district.
Morgan returned from Washing
ton late Thursday, where he con-
ferred with Gen. Lincoln G. Andrews.
He was silent on how the appoint
ment of Ewing affected his status
as present boss of Indiana.
1.-THE appointment Of Mr.. Ewing
is understood to be temporary. Cen
eral Andrews is looking for a bust
ness man to take charge Of the dis
trict," Morgan said.
Morgan, it is believed, may be
made one of the deputy adninistra-
tors, one Of which probably will be
located here, and supervise dry work
in Indiana. He denied he had been
seeking a State berth. 1t was un.
derstood he was angling for appoint
ment as secretary of the State teach
ers' retirement fund, a position now
held by Estes Duncan.

Euisances and closed"
Close cooperation with the
justice department will be main
tanned under legal guidance toward
arrest and punishment of major
tiolators and special attention will
be directed 10 clearing court
dockets. ..~
New Office Created
A campaign of education will be
undertaken to prove to all citizens
that bootleg liquor is injurious to
health and detrlment to public vel
fare in an effort to cut down the
liquor market.
One entirely new office was
created-that Of Chief prohibition
investigator" Walter H. Green was
appointed to It and as such will head
a bureau Of international detectives
who will war on rum-runners headed
for America from all over the world
Andrews said in part:
THE national prohibition laws
make it unlawful to supply alcoholic
beverages to those who want to buy
them.
Admits Demand
1.-THE big demand for these
: beverages creates a ready market
and under the economic law of sup
ply and demand the business Of sell
ing to this market has been estab-
lished. This outlaw business, in all
its manifestations is the real enemy
of government and society.
2 Its elimination is the main
objective for the Federal forces.
This bootleg business may be
eliminated by depriving it Of its
sources Of supplies or by deprivine
it Of its market. It may be seri
ously impeded by the arrest and
( punishment Of those who direct its
operations who furnish it protection
banking facilities. tactical assistance
etc, and by making its operations
more expensive than the market viii
bear.
Three Lines of Attack
''The Federal forces have been re
organized for, and will be concen
trated upon, the task of eliminating
Z the bootleg industry and energies
will be directed primarily to that
end, working along these three lines
Of attack:
81. Sources Of supply to be
reached and wiped out as rapidly
as possible are inportations, manu-
facture, diversion and transporta'
ton.
"2. The market is our most diff
cult problem because Of its indif
ference to consequences, ignorance
and colossal guilibility. The marke
will pay any price and swallow any
bootlegger's story as to quality, but
one by one intelligent citizens viii
realize the danger to the Govern
ment and society which they are ere
ating by enriching this bootleg class
of community members and feeding
fat a business which exists only
through cerrupting the very agents
of Government and business, whose
honesty is essential to the stability

The only thing which permitted the idea of re-introduction of the monarchy in Germany to flourish is the fact that the republic hitherto was unable to obtain in international negotiations a modification of the seventies of the Versailles treaty.
 "The republic itself, however, con- tributed to this situation by commit ting the mistake of allowing mon- archistic employees without distinc- tion to remain in office.
 'The monarchistic idea in Ger many is nourished by those strong economic groups who believe that a monarchy would treat them, in the matter of taxes, better than does the republic
 Tt may be remarked in passing however, that the republic hitherto has treated these circles with velvet gloves while at the same time it permitted workmen to suffer.
 "At the beginning of this year, the republic was in danger of being overthrown, through the so called 'fatherlandish circles
 "The Reichsbanner Schwartz-Ro Gold which today constitutes a power compelling respect dissipated this danger at the last moment. This danger, I must point out, could arise if Germany does not now sue ceed in putting it's business into full swing, since the monarchistic agitators understand very skilfully how to exploit the necessities of the people. Every political and econo- mic success of the democratic re- public is blow for the fascisti. The foreign countries therefore have it in their power to strength the Ger man republic inwardly."
 I asked him what his personal ex- periences have been with his former comrades as result of his open esponsal of the republic cause.
 My old comrades declared ban against me when I began fighting politically for democracy and pacifism. Naturally, did not let this influence me and I have sometimes received threatening letters; the newspapers of the right side take sometimes occasion to be rowdyish, but this leaves me quite cold. I always think of the old proverb whoever curses is wrong"

BERLIN, Jan. S.-General Baron von Schoenaich, Kaiserin Hermine's kinsman, believe that the monarchy will never be restored in Germany, because the princelings of the P former ruling families are more or less a dumb lot.
 General von Schoenaich, inter- viewed by press agent couched his opinion in somewhat milder language, but nevertheless made it quite emphatic that he did not es- teem highly the brains of the royal offspring.
 T believe" he said, "that the restoration of the monarchy in Ger many would be frustrated, if for no other reason, solely from that fact that the princely families do not possess single head of more than middle greatness"
 Schoenaich, leader of the new re- publican defense organization in Germany Republic Banner Schwartz -Rot-Gold," revealed that the old officers of the Kaiser regime have put formal social boycott on him, and that he has on more than one occasion received threatening letters because he is an out-and-out re- publican.
 He believes thoroughly that the republic will stand.
 But he made it plain that foreign nations have it in their power to make or mar the republic. If the present conciliatory spirit toward Germany will be maintained, then the republic will stand, in the opinion of General von Schoenaich.
 'I regard" he said, "the English monarchial form good and I believe that if our old monarchial con- stitution had developed organically up to the form of the English, our former monarchs would still be set ting on their thrones.
 "Our monarchs, however, always prevented this development and thus they themselves buried the mon archy

 The ranch has thirty pens in size, from 8ffl12 to 50x7O with fifty head of Slvers and two pairs of Blues, re- gently purchased from Dr. Brugin, of Hesketh island.
