What Does The, Church Mean to
Americans?

Statistics are, of course, not the
best proof of the worth of any or
ganization. The fact that it raises so
much money or so many people be-
long to it does not answer the ques-
ton of its real worth to society. If
this is true of other organizations,
it is particularly true of the church.
Still figures are not altogether worth
less, they indicate popular interest.
When people spend money for other
things we usually infer that they are
interested in these things. If people
spend money on the church it is fair

SIX REASONS FOR NOT WITHDRAWING
Allies Detail Conditions for German Government in
 Cologne Issue
By The Assoclated Press.


 London, Jan. 5.--The allied ann bassadors' note to Germany on the postponement of the Cologne evacu- ation, the text of which was made public by the foreign office this afternoon, asserts that the allied governments are already in a posi- ton to inform Germany that they have obtained proof showing Ger many has net yet fulfilled and can not possibly have fulfilled by Jan- uary 10" the conditions laid down in the Versailles treaty so as to en- able her to benefit by the clause of the treaty relating to partial evacu- alton of the occupied zone.
 The note gives six instances why the zone has not been evacuated:
 That the general staff of the Ger man army has been reconstructed Tn another form.
 Short service volunteers have been recruited and trained.
 Transformation Of war materials factories has not been completed.
 A surplus of every kind ot war material has been found and illicit stocks discovered,
 Reorganization of the state police has not been started.
 The German government Is far from having taken the legislative and administrative measures de- manded by the allies in their note of September 29, 1922.

lO.STORY BUILDING
 IS SWEPT BY FLAMES
Half Million Dollar Fire Threatens Pittsburgh Business Section

Pittsburgh, Jan. 1.-Two firemen were injured and more than dozen business firms suffered losses and on entire downtown business block was threatened today when flames swept Q ten-story structure on Penn ave- nue, causing damage estimated by Fire Chief Shanahan at $500,000.
 The interior of the building was destroyed by the fire which started on the third floor in the wholesale merchandise establishment of ]. Robbins and Son. The intense heat broke many window panes and the showers of broken glass endangered many firemen. The flames also leap ed across Penn avenue, sbreaking windows there. A general alarm called out most of the fire fighting apparatus in the city.
 The entire Penn avenue district was filled with smoke and this ham, pered the firemen to such an extent that it was some time before the blaze could be found. Frozen water plugs also added to the difficulties. Firemen went to the roof of the Pitt theater, from where they pour ed water into the burning building, and the Alvin theater. short dis tance away, was somewhat damaged by water.
 Sewers in the district were unable to carry away the heavy volume of water poured onto the flames and Penn avenue and several connecting streets and alleys were flooded and the water poured into the basements of several stores, doing considerable damage to merchandise.
 Several times the fire threatened to spread to adjoining buildings, but quick work Of firemen prevented greater destruction.
 The fifth, sixth and seventh floors of the building were used as storage space for furniture, which was de- stroyed.

 Mrs. Ross addressed the assem- blaze in the senate chamber as my friends" and continued:

SIX UNDER ARREST AFTER
 FATAL BRISTOL SHOOTING;
 ONE DEAD AND TWO CUT UP
JUSTICE M'KENNA IS
 OFF SUPREME BENCH
Veteran of 32 Years Service Resigns at
 Age of S2

Washington, Jan. 5.--The resigna- ton of Associate Justice Joseph Me- Kenna was announced today from the bench of the supreme court.
 Chief Justice Taft, making the an- nouncement as soon as the court met, said the resignation had been accepted by Presidents Coolidge.
 By virtue of upward of thirty years service on the supreme bench. Justice McKenna was the ranking associate justice of the court. He retired because of his advanced age.
 Justice McKenna is in his eighty second year and three weeks from today will mark the twenty-seventh anniversary of his elevation to the supreme bench by President Me- Klnley. Before that appointment he had served in congress as a repre- sentative from California, had been a United States circuit judge under the Harrison administration and had occupied a place in McKinley's cabinet as attorney general. His health had been unusually robust for man of his years. and he has ap- piled himself with great vigor to the heavy tasks of the high court. Sev- eral months ago, however, the death of his wide added an additional weight of sorrow and loneliness to the burden of the advancing years, and he decided to lay aside the off, cial cares which for so long had taxed his capabilities.
 It was the general supposition that the retirement of Justice McKenna will be followed by the appointment of another member of the court from the Pacific coast. One of those mentioned Is Secretary Wilbur of the navy department, who before he en- tered the cabinet was chief justice of the California supreme court.
