That churches do not lessen crime,

Gle by Samuel ornitz, author Of
"Haunch, Paunch and Jowl" and for
many years a Brooklyn, N. Y, social
worker, in the September issue of the

Ornitz, who for twelve years han
died juvenile delinquency cases as an
expert in the Children's Society of
Brooklyn, declares under the title do
the Churches Corrupt YOUTH" that
most notorious criminals of recent
years, had received thoro religious
training in youth, that intense study
of religion in childhood is declared
by scientists to lead to sexual crimes,
and that ministers are often respon-
sible for production of criminals,
since they get first chance at the
child"
Strain Of Horrors.
The author suggests that religious
training should be postponed until the
child's mind is more mature. per
haps religious instruction is too terri
bic for the young mind to withstand"
ne writes. Perhaps it should be de-
,ayed until later in life, when the in

Chicago, H., Sept. 3, 1926.
To the officers and Members Of the
Furriers' Local as.
Brothers and Sisters: Having re-
ceived the nomination for business
representative Of our local at the last
meeting, I, the undersigned, desire to
withdraw my candidacy for that Of
flee.
In declining, I wish to state my
reasons for doing to. Inasmuch as
Brother /. Israelson is a nominee for
this position on a progressive plat
form l call upon all the members of
the furriers' local to support him and
all the progressive candidates. / be-
lieve that the present leadership is
not capable Of running the affairs of
our union to the satisfaction of the
membership, and a change in admin
istration is absolutely necessary at
this time.
Mllsteln Uses POLICE.
The members Of Local 45 are
against the policies pursued by the
present business agent, who is at
tempting to rule the organization by
the aid Of gangsters and the Chicago
police department. am in favor of
policy which will, eliminate gangster-
ism from our union, so that the men,

express themselves on all questions
coming before the organization and
tho labor movement In general. / am
opposed to the recent star-chamber
settlement of the strike and believe
the membership As entitled to thoro
discussion Of the agreement.
I am in favor of wiping of our
books all the charges now held against
progressive members of our local who
have dared to protest against the one
man rule Of the present business
agent, Brother Milstein. know that
these charges have no foundation and
have only been made against these
brothers in order TO prevent the op-
position from participation in the
elections and thus again leave the
union in the hands of Milstein and
his hand-picked executive board.
Matter Of Policy.

MADRID, Sept. s.-With an iron
clad censorship resting over the entir,
country, with official assurances tina
the revolt against Primo de Rivera
has surrendered, has been shot tc
pieces, has compromised, and has
ended itself in other ways, there con
tinue to be rumors Of vast dissatisfac
ton in all parts OF the army, and 1t is
certain that artillery regiments are in
open mutiny and that they are aided
by the navy.
Madrid is full of troops, most of
them infantry, supposedly more relia-
Bile from the governments point OF
view, and somewhat antagonistic to
the military castles in the artillery,
which are now in revolt against Dicta-
tor Primo de Rivera. But these peas
ant infantry units have many Of them
gone thru the hell of Morocco and
have no love for those who sent them
there. They are not absolutely loyal.
In this strange atmosphere of sus-
picion, rumor and official denials that
sometimes admit more than they deny,
1t has been decided to take a plebis-
cite on Sept. II, IL and 13 for or
against the convocation Of national
assembly Primo de Rivera and his
party will, OF course, oppose the re-
turn to constitutional procedure, while
the business interests and the working
class are each opposed to military
feudalism and Primo de Rivera.
Committees are to be created thru
out Spain in each city to consist Of
president appointed by the mayor, and
three members of the Patriotic Union
Party, with other delegates from other
bodies to be designated later. This
machinery OF committees will try to
drum up a great petition for Primo de
Rivera to be left In charge of the
country with dictatorial rights.
Martial Law.
Martial law was established when
the first outbreak took place in the
artillery barracks of Barcelona. An
attempt has been discovered to kidnap
King Alfonso and force him to abdi-
cate. Bands of rebels in fleet motor
cars were to rush down upon him in
his summer capital of San Sebastian
as soon as the fighting began at Bar
celona and Cadiz. Alfonso escaped by
taking a train to Madrid before the
conspirators could get started.
The entire country is irritated over
the harsh rule Of Rivera, who seized
power on Sept IL, 1923. by military
coup d'etat, based largely on dis
satisfaction with the losing war in
Morocco. He has since offended the
officer groups who brought him to his
high position by taking from them the
right to control promotions.
Revolts Common Now.
MADRID, Sept. 9.-Prime Minister
de Rivera has issued another state
ment that he has the situation we'll in
hand. Conditions are improving
every minute" said the general, court
martials have already started"
A report is current that the king
has interceded in the interest Of
peace, following conference held on
the highway with high artillery Of
ficers who stopped his automobile.
After receiving promises that virtually
amount to immunity from all serious
consequences from the mutiny the ar
tillery regiments at Segovia have sur
rendered.

SPANISH REVOLT
ESCAPING FROM
CENSOR'S Grip
Primo Di Rivera Loses
Confidence of Army
RULLETIN

MADRID, Sept. 8. - Reduction Of
the number Of artillery generals
from eighteen to ten was ordered to-
day In royal decree, Issued as the
result Of the revolt Of artillery Of
fcers.
This order Is understood to be a
compromise measure, General de
Rivera having desired the dlssolu-
tlon OF the artillery corps entirely
while the king was opposed to such
a drastic step. Peace In view, the
king Intends to resume his "vaca-
tlon" at San Sebastian.
The artillery Will remain under
the control Of the regional captain
generals for purposes Of discipline.
Thus II appears that eight artillery
generals will lose their rank and the
artillery will be taken from the
direct command Of artillery officers,
while $50 artillery officers will be
court-martiaIed.
