For the fiscal year ending June 30
1889, the levy on intangible personal
property was $500, ,408, ,462, which, under
the proposed tax of 81 per thousand
would raise $500 900 for relief purposes
The committee realizes that an up-
limited sum could be expended for re-
lief purposes in any large community
at any time. However, the employ

Sermon
THE GREATER CHRIST
BY DIR. A. q. Bearer
(FOr the LSB)


Text: A greater than Solomon Is
here-Luke 1871.
An unbiased study and consid-
GRAFTON of Jesus will convince of
his superiority over all others. The
world has had some great and
good men. Many have beer real
benefactors OF mankind. Many
have exerted great influence on
their time and some on all ages
OF the world. since their departure.
| But none have equalled Jesus
the Mar of Nazareth"
1. GREATER IN WISDOM. In
this text He proclaimed Himself
greater than Solomon. stressing
the wisdom OF this eminent char
acter. But one has but to contrast
the two characters. to realize that
in wisdom. Christ was infinitely
greater than Solomon.
2. GREATER IN HUMANITA-
RIANISM. In this he was evidently
greater than JoLah. as set forth i'm
this chapter. Jonah was derelict,
but Jesus was faithful TO duty.
Jonah was stubborn and rebellious
but Jesus was submissive and ODE
dent. Jonah preferred the people
should perish rather than that his
word should fail; but Christ gave
His life to save men.
3. GREATER IN STERLING
WORTH. Jesus testified that "of
all that had been born of woman"
none was greater than JohL the
Baptist. And of Christ. John testi-
fled. He must increase and | must
decrease. In Colossians 2:lS, Paul
expressly declares IL to be the will
and purpose OF God. That in all
things He might have the preemi-
hence.
Passing ages have not dimmed
the lustre of the rame and fame of
Jesus. Efforts to discredit Him
have been futile. He was greater
and is greatest OF all who ever
lived. So. those who honor and
worship Him have chosen the
greatest, the highest. the purest.
the best OF all.

Montgomery,Ala. Puts
Thru Red Ordinance
to Halt Organization

MONTGOMERY, Ala. - Increased
activity among the unemployed Of
Montgomery and growing unity of
Negro and white workers, has
prompted the city commission to put
through an "anti-Red' ordinance in
the hope Of preventing organization.
Loosely drawn in order to furnish
general dragnet for militant work
ers, the ordinance, which was drafted
by John L. Goodwin, city attorney,
makes illegal the teaching of sub
versive doctrines by word, sign
or writing" and defines criminal
archy as doctrines" or
teaching Of doctrines for the over
throw OF organized government, sabo-
tage, or advocating the murder of any
federal officer, Or officer Of any gov
eminent"
Violation of the ordinance IS pun
ishable by fine of not less than 81
or more than $50, or not more than
six months hard labor, or both.
In order to terrorize owners of halls
where workers might meet, the Or
dinance specifically declares that
"assemblage to advocate such SUBJ
versive doctrines also Is an offense

KARP METAL
STRIKE WON

NEW YORK-A partial victory was
won today by the workers Of the

when the boss acceded to their de-
mands for recognition Of the shop
committee, no further lay-offs and
other important demands, after a
four day strike.
The workers also forced the bosses
to agree to take back those recently
laid off when new workers are hired
and to practice no discrimination
against those active in the strike. The
workers returned to their jobs uhani-
nous in the determination to organ
ize the workers in this section of the
industry into the Steel and Metal
Workers Industrial Union, which led
this strike.
Brooklyn metal workers are called

PROTEST STOPS
TEACHERS CUT
Shenandoah Board to
Rescind Pay Slash

SHENANDOAH, Pa, May 15.-The
combined action of the Unemployed
Councils, the general mine workers
council and the local mine council
of Shenandoah resulted in forcing
the school Board here to retain its
staff of school teachers at the pres
emit salary although cut had been
ordered in the new school code rec
emily adopted in the state legislature.
All teachers in the Shenandoah
Borough District were scheduled to
receive a 20 per cent wage cut at
the beginning Of the next school term
according to this code The school
board announced the proposed cut IN
the local press and threatened those
who failed to sign the contract on
this basis with loss of jobs.
When the councils called for the
wage cut to be rescinded, at the
recent school board meeting, they
we're informed that the budget could
not be balanced in any other way.
Dunlevy, spokesman of the Unem-
ployed Council then demanded that
the cuts be made from the top first.
Fearing that their own salaries would
suffer and feeling the pressure of the
mass demand, the board acceded, re-
jected the code and reelected the
teachers on the same contract and
wages as heretofore.

a picket line which was scheduled to
mass at the mill gates today.
Halt Re. Opening.
j. Foster Smith, agent of the mill
announced yesterday that the mill
would not reopen on Monday, action
of the strikers having forced the bos-
ses to change their plans to reopen
the plant. The local press admits
that union officials are in sympathy
with the companys plan to increase
its speed-up at the expense Of the
workers, and has announced that
should the plant reopen those who
return to work will not be considered
strike breakers, while those who stay
out on strike will be so considered. But
these threats have not affected the
workers decision to strike until they
have forced the bosses TO withdraw
the new efficiency plans.
The resentment of the strikers is
the result Of a long series of wage
cuts and speed-up plans imposed on
the workers as result OF the union
corporation scheme
which the United Textile workers

ers have had to help the bosses
compete" lower production costs,
and effect economies" for the bos-
ses through dismissals, wage cuts and
increased speed-up. The right to
strike was practically outlawed as a
result Of the plan and union officials
were pledged to cooperate in break
ing any strike which might occur,
when the membership refused to &C.
cept policies agreed to jointly by the
management and the union officials.
The workers have fully realized
that the union management scheme
is not what it has been hailed to be
by officials but rather vicious speed
UP plan for the benefit of the bos-
ses. The solidarity of the strikers,
their proper organization to defend
their jobs at the mill gates by mass
picketing and to conkIct their strike

the management to defeat the new
attack on the work,
