Pastors Far Apart
On Youths Morals

Two Indianapolis pastors today
are strongly opposed in their views
on the morals of modern youth.
DIR. Frederick E. Taylor, First
Baptist Church, who maintains that
young people now are worse than in
preceding generations, refused to de-
bate with the Rev. Gerald l.. X.
Smith, University Place Christian
Church, who believes conditions are
better.
The controversy started at union
meeting of Protestant pastors of the
city at which Governor Ed Jackson
and DIR. Taylor spoke. Referring to
remarks of DR.. Taylor at that meet
ing, the Rev. Mr.. Smith in a letter
of challenge, wrote: "In your ad-
dress you alluded to the youth Of
this generation and emphatically
said that they were worse morally
that the youth OF twenty-five years
ago and preceding generations. I
can prove that we have the most
moral. cultured. high-minded, intel
lectual. religious and really Christian
youth Of any time in the life of our
country"

|CARSON'S SUIT
AGAINST A.. C. M.
FIRM UP TODAY

BUTTE, Mont, Sept. 30.-(AP)-Ef-
forts to collect part of $15,OOO,O0O to
$40 900, 900 which 1t claims as dana Ges
from five mining and smelling corpora
tions will be made in federal court here
tomorrow when the Carson Investment
company of San Francisco begins pre-
and damage action against the Ana
conda Copper Ching company.
George Cambell Carson, supported by
Rudolph Spreckles, Robert Hayes Smith
and other wealthy Californians, will
endeavor to prove that the A. c. M.
company for many years has infronged
on his patent rights to a side charger
for reverbatory furnaces and will at
tempt to obtain an injunction prevent
ing the defendant from using the
charger, and also to collect fortune
demanded as damages. The plaintiff
leaves it to the court to determine the
amount of damages in the event that
Judgment against the defendants is
granted.
Carson, former prospector and
smelter employe, came into promi-
nence last year when, after a battle of
years, he won his first suit to collect
from companies which he alleged were
tusing his patents. The initial victory
was won in California courts after Car
son for several years had sought fl
nancial aidtto carry on his fight to col
| lect on his invention. The American
Smelling and Refining company was
defendant and the court of appeals now
is engaged in fighting the damages to
be collected by Carson and his hackers.

Polish Cabinet Tenders
Resignation, Following
Defe at in the Diet

WARSAW, Poland Sept. 30.-(AP)-
The cabinet of Premier Bartel present
ed it's resignation tonight after a de-
feat in the diet and, much to the sur
prise of the general public, President
Moseiecki accepted it.
The comment is made that Marshal
Pilsudski, who remains as the power
behind the throne, suddenly changed
his mind, and instead of pernT<t1ng the
president to dissolve the houses of
parliament asked the diet to accept
the cabinets resignation following the
decision of the diet to reduce the cred
it's asked for by the government to
carry on affairs for the last quarter of
1925. 1t is learned that four ministers
of the Bartel cabinet representing the
economic offices of agriculture, COM
merce and industry, land reforms and
finance, also advised against dissolu-
tion of parliament and elections in
January, as was contemplated, stating
that such procedure would interfere
with the present work on improving
Polands economic situation. They also
pointed out that January would be a
bad month for elections in an agricul-
tural country, as the peasants would
not come to the polls in the cold
weather. These views evidently influ-
enced War Minister Pilsudski, who de-
cided to preserve the present diet in
stead Of the cabinet. This decision un-
doubtedly will be met with satisfaction
by the country at large, as no one ap-
peared desirouS of entering into a pre-
election period with its many uncer-
tainties.

TO REsUME TRAFFIC

BISBEE, Sept. 3O.-(AP)-Traffic on
the Southern Pacific lines will be re-
sumed Friday night and early Satur-
day morning, according to A. E. Sweet.
assistant general manager. The bridge
across the San Pedro at Fairbanks will
be repaired by that time and the mile
stretch of track through the Charles
ton gorge of the San Pedro will be re-
ballasted, and train service on the
south line of the Southern Pacific will
be resumed. Traffic on the north line
will not be established before Mon
day m orr n g, and it is doubtful
whether heavy passenger trains will be
handled over that line for some days
after that, according to Sweet. Train
102, leaving Los Angeles Friday morn
ing is expected to be the first passen-
ger train over the line, being held in
Tucson until early morning as railroad
officials feel that they must be sure of
the safety of the line before allowing
passenger trains over The repaired
track will be thoroughly tested by sew
eral heavy freights before passenger
service is undertaken. Friday nights
Golden State Limited will likely be
held at Hereford for several hours and
allowed to proceed over the repaired
line.

respondent today that every effort was
being made to put both north and
south lines in condition. Pile drivers
were brought from the New Mexico
