mistake In sending a man OF this
age TO cope with the tropical eli

Carriers Experience
James Garneth Carter was born
In Brunswick, Ca, Dec. l5, 1877.
He was educated In the grammar,
normal and industrial schools of
Georgia and Alabama. His early
experiences were as merchant, a
tailor and letter carrier. For q
period of nine years he was the
manager of newspaper. He served
for two years as member of the
civil service examining board In
Brunswick, Ga.
His first appointment In the for
eign service was as consul at Siyas,
a province in Turkey, Sept. 6, 1906,
but he did not go to this post. Nov.
i, 1906, he was appointed consul
at Tamatave. He was made con-
sui of class s by an act of congress
approved Feb. 5. 1916. He was as
signed to Tananarive July s, 1916.
He became consul of class s.
June 4, 1920, and foreign serv-
ice officer of class z. July /, 1924.
He is married and has one daugh-
ter.
Liberia Willing
The government of Liberia is not
likely to offer any objection to the
proposed United States minister.
So far as is known the West Afri-
can government has never Officially
objected to the appointment of any
individual as United States minis
ter. It is known at the state de-
partment, however, that Liberia
prefers for racial reasons the ap-
pointment of colored man.
The Firestone Tire com pany's in
Vestment of 500, 600, 900 in Liber-
ian rubber. plantations gives the
United States extraordinary inter-
sst In the West African republic.
Any minister must be skilled in
diplomacy and business and know

would conclude that Russia is all
religion and superstition.
The crowd at the theatre was
largely workers and intellectuals
the congregation at the church was
the two extremes--neasan and
bourgeois. The great stone-floored
cathedral has no seats; the congre-
cation stands during service which
is a long service. s
Below Zero
Some kneel on the cold stones
and bow and cross themselves con-
tinually for hours. The thermom-
eter was far below zero. and II was
not much warmer I'm the church
than out of doors. Everybody kept
his great coat on. The churches
are filled with wealth, even after
some of 1t was taken away by the
government during the famine some
years ago,-according to what we
heard in the states. The great ag-
gregations and rows and circles Of

counted 400 candles, then got
tired and stopped counting. II was
more interesting counting candles
than listening to the weird chanting
Of the priest
superb Singing
But, o the singing! That was
superb. The soprano and tenor
voices of that choir. While the
priest hummed his intonations and
waved his mimicry, they sang, and
their voices and FEELING were
more like that of the American Ne
groes than anything else have
ever heard anywhere in the world.
If one listened only to the music and
paid on attention to the Russian
language, he might have been hear
ing some of the greater spiritual
songs of the American Negro.
Church's Mistake
But undoubtedly the church does
not hold the same place or respect
in Russia that II once held. In the
first place, II made the mistake TO
keep on talking about heaven"
when men were starving TO death
In famine and needed bread"
Eternal life was no substitute for
temporal HUNGER. And the church
had more respect for its sacred
brass and silver plate than for
the perishing bodies of children and
babies, so that the government had
to take some Of its wealth by force
during a great famine. And it is
not at all unlikely that the officers
Of government went too far |
OF the situation to rob |
md plumber. Neither side is usu-
ally without fault or guilt in such
4 proceeding.
The Gar
Again, the church under the Car |
was identified with Czarism, and
heaven seemed to be allied with the
oppressor. The Cars and priests
claimed the special favor and pro-
.ection of heaven, and so when
he people beat the Car and his
Cossacks. they had a first feeling
hat they had beat the Car and all
lis allies, including heaven and the
hurch. The reaction after a sue
essful revolution against q heaven
government is sure. The
russians are sure TO come around
o a more reasonable view of re-
igion than the one they destroyed
With the Car.
