KANSAS CHURCH
IS AIDED BY OIL
Pensioners at Greenwich
viii Repair Building and
Have FulI-Time Pastor.
Special Dispatch to The star

Special Dispatch to The star
GREENWICH, Kans., July 21.-Mem-
bers of the Methodist Episcopal Church
of this small Kansas town are looking
forward to building an additional
church, to installing a basement In
which to hold social gatherings and din
ners and to extend the church work
in a dozen directions.
Moreover the church which mas
been having preaching services only
twice a month because of the financial
situation which required sharing a
pastor with another church of Benton,
Kans.. soon will have a resident pastor
and will have all of his time.
It all is coming about as the result
of tho discovery Of oil on the town site
of Greenwich. The church is holder
of a share in the we'll, which Moved
as much as ITO barrels an hour before
a cave-in checked it down. Running OIL
pipe and cleaning OF the mole is eh-
pected to bring back the large now:
Operators rate the oil strike as good
for 1000 to 5000 barrels day.
Strike Changes Town.
The oil strike. of course. has brought
a change In this little town ana II
probably will mean an influx of many
persons and growth out OF the VII
LACE class into boom town.
But the boomers" as many OF tine
followers of oil strikes are known In
this section. take what money they can
out of the community and then drIt
TO new fields. Members Of the Metho-
dist Church have lived here for years
and thev do not plan to DRIFT.
So il is with satisfaction that they
lonk uuon the prospect of a sudden IN
crease in the wealth Of the little church.
IT, will mean funds with which to care
for the sick and poor and to do mis-
sionary work 1t will mean an increase
in salary for Rev R.. l., Dadlsman, pas
tor, who has lahored for years Tor a
few hundred dollars year. 1t Will
mean funds to educate worthy young
persons of the vicinity. some OF the
church leaders saw and also will result,
thev hone. in great increase in at
tendance at services at the churcn.
Hope to Help Others.
EFT Is our hope to accomplish more
IN the way of helping others than in
the way Of putting up fine buildings
and installing costly organs. SAID the
minister. I'VE hope to use the income
from our share of the Oil we'll to help
those in need of spiritual things as we'll
as worldly aid"
belonging to J. L. Hudson. His income
from ROYALTIES is expected to exceed $50
day.
The Greenwich public school has four
lots in the tract and completion OF other
wells may swell the funds Of the board
Of education to the point where school
expansion can follow that of the church

CRIME BOARD GETS LETTER
Richard Washburn Child Re-
rrets Statements Of Both
Vets and Drys

New York. May 22.-P-Richard
Washburn Child. author. diplomat
and acting chairman Of the national
crime commission. made public today
a letter to George W. Wickersham,
chairman OF President Hoovcr's new
national law enforcement commission
in which he expressed his personal
opinion that distinction should be
made between normal laws" and
governmental commandments"
Il reiterate my belief" he wrote
that a distinction should be made
between law OF the books and social
will as it is found In fact. I do not
say the eighteenth amendment and
its resulting congressional command
ments cannot be enforced. IT the
ardent drys sec burglar entering
the home of his friend and neigh
Dor he telephones to police: If he sees
a bootlegger entering the house OF
his friend and neighbor he may tele-
phone the police. but it is generally
recognized that in such case he would
be considered a cad.
1T is rcgrettablc that vets have
emphasized personal liberty II IS
equally rcgrcttablc that others have
emphasized that no individual has
the right to choose which laws he
should obey. The distinction each
emphasizes serves only to obscure tho
question which appears to be the
first that your commission should
consider. /. c.. is social will in the
sense of community and human
thought and practice subservient to
statutory law or superior to it?'

PLANE BECOMES FIERY COMET
Engine Goes Dead, Craft Takes
Fire, Pilot Lands Huge
Flaming Firebrand
LANDED ON DESERT IN DARK
Passengers and Pilots Safely
Leave Hulk a. Liner Is
Totally Destroyed

Elko. New. May 22.-(N-Seven
airplane passengers and two pilots
came through q spectacular accident
without serious injury near here early
today when . big westbound Boeing
air mail transport caught fire in
midair, made q forced landing and
burned In its tracks.
The tri-motored plane carrying
mail and passengers to San Francisco
was but 4 few minutes out Of Elko
when the left motor failed. Flames
spouted from the dead engine and
ignited the left wing. The transport
was about 1000 feet in the air and
landing on the desert without lights
was matter Of much guesswork.
Chief Pilot Hugh Barker pointed
the plane downward at a sharp angle
and 1t dived toward the earth like
q huge firebrand. Barker made .
smooth landing under the circum-
stances.
Abe Warner, assistant pilot, had the
cabin door open before the blazing
plane came to q stop and the pas
sengers clambered to safety on the
ground. The transport was too far
gone by that time to attempt extin-
gushing the flames. Boeing officials
said the plane and everything aboard
It was q total loss but that none Of
the passengers had been injured.
What caused the left motor to stop
was not determined.

FARMERS TO BENEFIT
BY Rate REDUCTION

Washington. May "a @- Repre-
sentative Andersen, Republican, Min.
nesota, today announced he had been
advised by the interstate commerce
commission that permission granted
eastern and western trunk lines to re-
duce freight rates on export wheat
and flour as an emergency farm relief
measure applies not only to central
terminals but to intermediate stations
IN Minnesota, Iowa and Missouri.
The decision Of the commission,
Andersen said, was distinct victory
for the farmers Of the middle west
and northwest. Present rates Of 22h
cents per hundred pounds on wheat
and flour from eastern Minnesota to
Chicago. the commission informed
Andersen, have been reduced to 16h
cents, so that all shippers and farmers
having any grain on hand which Is
not subject to transit privileges would
benefit from the reduced rates.
Andersen recently filed protests
with the commission asking q hearing
on the proposal to reduce rates on
export wheat. claiming only terminal
points would be benefited.
