GOLDEN RULE AND NEAR

Golden Rule Sunday comes this
year on December 6. Golden Rule
week ends on Golden Rule Sunday 1t
is the annual rollcall for the Near
East Relief-America's greatest over
seas charity.
But for those whose hearts are
right, every day is Golden Rule day
and every week is Golden Rule week.
Little children are as hungry on
Tuesday as on Sunday, and in Sep
TENDER or June as well as in Deem
Der.
The calendar has no red-letter days
when little children-or grown-ups,
either-can call truce on hunger.
The world knows the story of how
these children of the Near East came
to be orphans. The world knows how
their fathers and mothers lost their
lives in the massacres and by famine
or sickness.
Also, the world knows that other
story-that better story-of how the
Near East Relief, backed by the
American people, stepped in at the
hour Of darkness despair and saved
the children-gathered them in from
street and deserted howell and blazing
desert, or found them freezing and
starving, clad in rags, when the ter
l1ble winter set in, out there in Asia

The world will not be content mere

still have this sacred duty before
them-continue to feed and shelter

the helpless little ones who can look
nowhere else for these things.
Observance Of Golden Rule day
may be as elaborate or as perfume

thing is the giving Of contribution,

arrive in time to drive from some
little face the shadows Of misery and

Atlanta Convict Tells Of Offer
 To Sell Him Parole From Prison
Prisoner However, Says He Had Just Paid S1,5OO for "Soft Job" So Could Not Afford the $2,5OO Asked.
By The Associated Press.

By In6 AssOCldIeu FIesus
 Atlanta, Ga., Feb. 11.-Alleged ef- forts of Laurance Riehl, Columbus, Ohio, to sell him a parole from the Atlanta federal penitentiary were described today by Graham Baughn, convicted in the Savannah rum ring" exposure, in the trial of A. E. Sartaln and L. J. Fletcher, former prison officials, and Riehl on charges of conspiracy and bribery.
 Baughn said Riehl attempted to sell him the parole for s2,5O0 early in 1924, when he came to Savannah with Father Thomas P. Hayden, then a chaplain at the prison, to collect $10,5O0 for special privileges to be granted several men convicted in the rum ring" exposure when they en- tered the penitentiary.
 Baughn testified he already had "put up sl,50O" for "soft job" and added that he did not feel like giv- ing Riehl any more money at the time.
 "I told Riehl would think over the matter and send him the money later" Baughn stated, but l never sent it."
 baughn, formerly a lawyer, also said Riehl had attempted to sell paroles to other members of the Sa- vannah ring" Although he did not put up" any money, Baughn said he later was recommended for a parole by the parole board.
 Baughn said he paid 5000 to Sartain, who appointed C. C. Tuten, convicted in Savannah, as his chauf- feur. Tuten raised the money in Sa- vannah, the witness stated.
 The witness said he conducted the negotiations" after Sartain fre- quently had expressed need of money and stated he soon would have some easy jobs open"
 A check for $5,OOO alleged to have been given Fletcher by Mamie kess- Ter. wealthy New York bootlegger and ap risoner, was caShed through an Atlanta man by Baughn, the wit ness testified.
 "Fletcher said he needed the money immediately" Baughn con- tinued. "to use in establishing an ice business in Miami, Fla"
 During the time he served as chauffeur to the Warden, Baughn testified, he had privileges which al- lowed him to visit theaters in At lanta. He also stated that once he took the warden and Fred Haar, Sr., for long ride in the country. While they were on the trip, Baughn said, he borrowed a gun and went hunt ing. accompanied by Sartian and Harr.
