MARKET IS Dull
AVD1NACTvE

NEW YORK, May 5.-Dullness
and inactivity ruled in the stock
market in the early trading today.
The motor and oil stocks led a mod
crate rally in the Industrial list, in
the course OF which prices of the
active stocks sold up a point or
less.
Standard Oil of New Jersey again
forged to the front in the lead Of
the oil shares. while Hudson and
General Motors led the automobile
stocks. A few OF the specialties
sold higher, but the rails, coppers
and other important speculative
groups were featureless.
The only reflection Of the British
strike in the American mai l1ets
was in foreign exchange, where
Belgian, French and Norwegian cur
rencies declined rather sharply.
Belgian francs tumbled to 800
cents, principally as the result Of
the necessary. discontinuance of
negotiation for q loan in London,
with the proceeds of which the Bel
gian government was planning to
stabilize the franc in the interna-
tional exchange markets.
Buying was largely concentrated
on the oil stocks in the second
hour, with moderate upward move.
ments in Atlantic Refining, Mar
land. Sicily, Sinclair, Simns, la.
cific, Standard Of New jersey, Pan
American, Pan Handle, Pure Oil.
California Petroleum and others of
the active Independent oils.
Bullish consumption reports and
rumors of forthcoming advances in
prices OF crude oil and gasoline
were the principal factors behind
the demand for the stocks.

BULLETIN NO. II
WARNINGS TO THE PEDES-
TRAN
BY Chief of Police Morgan A. Collins

From August 10th to 22nd, II per
sons were killed and 403 were injured
in Chicago through motor vehicle ac-
cidents. Of this number, II killed and
225 injured were pedestrians.
These figures show wanton care
lessness on the part of pedestrians for
their own safety.
The enormous amount OF traffic on
the streets should be warning to the
foot traveller to always be on his
guard.
When alighting from a street car
satisfy yourself that oncoming traffic
is going to stop. Always pause and
look both ways before crossing the
street or boulevard Hundreds Of ac-
cidents could be avoided if pedestrians
would. substitute caution for reckless
ness
Never pass behind vehicle without
a clear view OF traffic approaching
from the opposite direction. Always
cross the street at the nearest corner.
The middle OF the block is always an
invitation for an accident
Traffic signals must be obeyed by
the pedestrian. If there are no signals
use common sense. Never figure that
the driver Of vehicle is going to stop
to let you pass. Be sure Of it, or wait
until he passes.
BY your watchfulness for your own
safety, help the police department to
cut down the appalling number of
deaths and injuries by motor vehicles.

of savage tribes, then comes in the
charges, "She kept the people in ignor-
ance" Where would either Europe or
America be today had not this same
Roman Church" preserved the Bible,
given US Sunday, taught US true moral
ity and laid the foundation for the free
dom and democracy Of today?
So the charges made today in Mex
ico, are all the same old stuff Just
as soon as a big chief gets a grievance
he gets up the same old stunt. Inter
medd1ing on politics and keeping the
people in ignorance The people were
in ignorance before the Church of
Rome arrived So far as politics are
concerned, when did a man lose his
citizenship by being a Christian? !?
Without the Catholic church the
Spaniards would have killed all the
Mexican Indians and they would never
have been missed. Our North Amer
lean Indians, where are they? Alas
There was no Catholic church to stand
between them and the fighting
preachers with a gun on the pulpit
desk, while they expound Jeremiah.
Certain Christians, not Romans, went
out and slaughtered the poor Indian
and "Gave God the glory" "A good
Indian was a dead Indian" in North
America. In South America and
Mexico the people have been preserved
and the white man has not killed them
off because the Catholic church soft
ened the rigors of slavery and stood
between the greedy and cruel Eu-
ropean and the black African slave and
the savage and ignorant Indian. To-
day the Indians and the Negroes have
chance in South America which they
have not seen anywhere under nom
Catholic rule.

SOUTH, IN FIRST HALF YEAR,
ALMOST FREE FROM
LYNCHINGS
(Preston News Service)


Outside Of Florida, says the Atlantic
Constitution, there has not been a
lynching in the entire southeast during
the first six months in this year-this
the two Carolinas and Ala
bama and Tennessee. One effort at
lynching was made in North Carolina,
but the officers were equal to the
emergency, as they can be in almost
every case when the officers are deter
mined to uphold the integrity of the
law. Lynchings in the past have been
too often traceable, even if legally un-
proven, to collusion between officers
and the mob. The record thus far in
the South is marvellous Improvement
over that Of few years ago, when
we usually had more lynchings in one
state in six months than now show in
the entire South and Southwest COM
bined.

it to Lieutenant and Mrs. Henry Dud-

Little Miss Dudley carries the first

Bond, and the second name, Louise, is
after the mother, Mrs. Louise Bond
Dudley Her parents and her grand
mother are all greatly pleased with
her, and all parties are almost out from
under the doctors care and are feeling
very happy at the treatment they re-
ceived from DR.. Stork.
Of course it is understood that Dr..
Henry w. Haig, 62O1 South Loomis

sisting DR.. Stork in making it smooth

THE CATHOLIC CHURCH AND

Mr.. Julius F. Taylor:
Will you print few words regard

A church calling itself Christian and
has never had any persecution, has not
been lied upon, has not had false
charges made against it, could not be

not above His Master
Now then, what do we find? We
find this one fact standing out in all
Christian history. Charges against
our Lord being political agent began
with Herod, who hearing from the
three wise kings that new king had
been born, Immediately came to the con-
c1usion that here was a rebel to be
killed to protect the government. I"
So many little innocents lost their
lives. Later the Pharisees charged
Jesus with seducing the people, and at
the crucihxion Plate was told that if
you free this man, you are no friend
to Caesar" "He made himself a
king" Politics were the gravmn of
the charges against Jesus. The Apos-
ties also were charged with disloyalty
to the government, Caesar" And the
christians Of the Roman empire were
charged with treason to the Emperor
in protesting and practicing Christian
ity. Other horrible charges as can
were made. Getting up be-
fore day to eat up man, referring to
the Mass and communion. All our re-
cent history almost invaribly charges
the Catholic church with fostering
ignorance, being backward and out of
date, keeping the people in the dark
and with interfering in politics" This
last charge has been the biggest asset

has been repeated to, often that every
body comes to believe it to be true and
just take for granted. If you go back
to the garden of Eden you will find
that when the devil wished to seduce
mother Eve, he said, God doth know
that when you shall eat Of the fruit Of
this tree you shall become as Gods
and shall know good and evil" So
it would seem that the charges Of
keeping people in ignorance would lie
even against God Almighty Himself,
according to the logical sequences.

ing. No other church gets it ''in the

wonders in what way she shall perish.
If you have gotten my ideas, read

ton, other than the "Church Of Rome,
started free schools for the common
people in the fourth and fifth centuries?
What organization, other than this
church, sent her missionaries and
teachers all over savage and pagan
Europe and lifted the heather white
races out Of their paganism and started
them on the road to civilizationa
Where is there civilized nation on
the face Of the globe who does not owe
the foundations Of its knowledge Of
civilization and Christianity to the
Church Of Rome?
Where is there a Baptist nation? A
Methodist nation or any nation that is
Christian and non-Catholic from the
beginning?
Not one can be found who did not
get its first lessons in civilization from
the Church Of Rome. either eastern or
Of the western churches. The Church
Of Constantinople was subject to the
Roman church when Russia received
Christianity and by Romeis consent
missionaries went out from CONSTANT
nople to Russia. So that even the

Christianity.
