MIRACLE" LAID
TO RENEWED WILL
Pastor Holds Cures Are Due
to Release OF Dynamics
of Human Spirit.

The reported miracles at an obscure
grave in Massachusetts, cemetery.
which yesterday drew 10 the spot
crowd estimated at 100000, are prob
ably due to the release of certain
great dynamicS of the human spirit
brought about by the power of sug-
gestion with which the place has been
endowed in the public mind, Rev. Moses
r Lowell. pastor of the Mount Pleasant
Congregational Church, said at the
morning service yesterday.
DR.. Lowell, founder Of the Lille Ad-
iustment Clinic in Washington, which
has attained Nationwide fame AS an
original experiment in practical re-
ligion, was in Massachusetts, last week
and talked with several who had wit
messed the scenes at the grave which ne
described as like standing in Palestine
and watching Jesus at work"
Among the seemingly miraculous
events he described was that OF DUNN
girl who suddenly began to speak III
a confused way and many who dis
careied crutches or walked away after
being carried to the grave.

This seems to be remarkable dem

such happenings which should be at
tributed neither to hysteria or to SUI
pernatural forces, but Ito a renewed
will taking hold of the helpless and
hopeless, the outward circumstances
being the last determinant in bringing
to a focus the motive power within.
These forces. he said, fall within the
scientific field of psychology. although
there may still be some unknown fac
tors involved. When enough is known
about them. he said. it is likely that
such phenomena can be duplicated
without regard 10 any particular locality
The healing miracles of Jesus" he
said. for long time were stumbling

regard them as the most credible OF
all miracles, because they are repro
ducable. At the Shrine of ST. Anne
De Beaupre In Canada and at LourdeS
in France we see manifesto tons on
every side of these same functions over
which Jesus did not claim to be in
control, but which became effective
through him"
Similar cures, possible on a lesser
scale, Dr. Lowell said, now are coming
from some of the European clinics,
such as that of Pierre Janet in Paris.
They largely are brought about, he

Negro Labor Congress Calls
For Solidarity with the USSR

The provocative actions of the
Chinese war lords against the First
Workers Republic, Soviet Russia,
are not representative of the Chin
ese masses who, in the words of
the Chinese workers in the United
States, "know that in their hour of
need, when they were beset by the
armed hordes of the imperialist
powers, the one government on
earth that stood by US was the gov
ernment of the Union of Socialist
Soviet Republics"
Chang Kai-shek, who now main
tains power by mass slaughter and
terrorism against the Chinese work
ers and their labor unions, is the
traitor whose counter-revolutionary
coup d'etat in 1927 revealed him as
an agent of the foreign imperialist
