Changing a Mules Mind

Gen. William Booth, founder of the
Salvation Army, used to tell story
of a man in South Africa who was ex-
ceedingly successful in dealing with
mule teams. Asked how he managed
these stubborn creatures, he said:
swell. when they stop and won't go
on, just pick up handful of gravel
or soil, put 1t to their mouths and let
them taste it. OF course they spit 1t
out again; but as rule they begin
to go on"
"Why do you think it has that effect
on them?" persisted his questioher.
swell, don't know" was the reply,
"but l expect 1t changes the current
of their thOughts!"

"You will not have forgotten" the

the real condition of the country and
of the Government when the Republi-

1921. The aftermath of the tremendous
struggle of the World War was full
upon us. Credit was on the wane; our
bonds were far below par; industry was
at a standStill or running at a loss {,
taxes we're high and almost intolerable;
and the work of the Government was
being extravagantly administered. Our
party. under the able leadership Of
President Coolidge, has brought about
a correction of these conditions. Credit
has been restored; our bonds are above

By the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
NEW YORK, September S.-The
Democratic national committee today
made public an exchange OF CORE
spondence between J. A. McWilliams OF
Louisville, KY, and Gov AIRED T..
Smith relative to the governors sigma
ture last March of "a legislative bill IN
cooperating the Roman Catholic Arch-
bishopric of New York.
Mr.. McWilliams' letter. dated May
IL last, quoted newspaper dlSpatch
giving details of the measure. MT
McWilliams then added.
THE writer is not familiar with the
law in cases of this kind, but am
wondering why a governor of any State
should have the right to sign any bill
creating an 'archbisl1oprlc.' 1t seems
contrary to the principle of the sepa-
ration of church and state. Will you
be Kind enough to take little of your
valuable time to explain such a pro-
ceeding as the above?"
In his reply, dated May 10, Gov.
Smith asserted that this statute is
consistent with the history and policy
of this State, going back more than
century" and that by no stretch of
human imagination can the incorpo-
ration Of such an institution by special
act involve the question of church and
state"
The first general law of this State
for the incorporation Of churches was
chapter Is, Laws Of 1884" wrote Gov.
Smith This chapter has been carried
down in what is now known as the
religious corporation law, consisting of
many articles and dealing particularly
with the government of the following
churches:
Protestant Episcopal. Presbyterian,
Roman Catholic and Greek churches,
Ruthenian, Greek Catholic churches.
Reformed Dutch, Reformed Presby-
terrain, Lutheran. Baptist. Congrega-
tional and Independent churches, Free
churches, Union churches and miscel-
laneous denominations.
The governor then enumerated sew
eral Legislative acts affecting various
religious denominations which had
been passed under this charter.
The act 'Archbishopric of New
York" he concluded, docs not create
the archbishopric of New York as a re-
ligiouS institution. 1t already exists,
but simply and only provides for
holding corporation similar in form and
design to other religious holding cor
portaions that the Legislature has
granted charters to over a long period
of time. 1t is nothing new in our
statutes. 1t simply takes the place of
the individual having control of the
usual funds that come into possession
of the church or religious corporation
to be used for religious, charitable and
educational purposes"
