 DECREASE CRIME
Parole Officer FavOrs At. tendance at Weekly
 Sessions

okmulgee. okia, CUP)-C. E. B. Cutler, former state pardon and parole oficer. believes that if moro children would attend Sunday school there would be much less crime.
 Cutler, of Oklahoma City, in an address here, recalled the difficulty of children to- attend Sunday school during the territorial days of Oklahoma.
 "When was a boy was forced many times to stay at home be- cause of bad weather, or impass- able roads. Even in bad weather We had to wear great boots which had fresh tall0w on them and heavy brass caps on. the toes.
 "No matter how urgent the farm duties were on Sunday, if we could get away from the farm at all, we went to Sunday school, not be- cause our parents wanted us to, but because it was a part of our weekly life.
 "The sources os culture were the home, the church, and the district school, and these institutions mold ed the character for the popula- tion of the early cities," Cutler said.
 He pointed out that less than two per cent of the people of the world are attending Sunday school. and that less than 30 per cent of all Oklahomans are members of any religious denomination.

AIRWAYS PLANE
 MET HEAD WINDS

Alameda, Cal April 23.-(UP)- Head winds reaching a velocity of 40 miles an hour today slowed the progress of a transpacific plane fiy- ing from the Hawaiian Islands to- wards the California coast.
 Thrown off schedule by the un- expected force of the wind, the plane was averaging only 125 miles an hour on the eastward leg of its round-trip flight, the first ever attempted by the same plane and crew between the mainland and the islands.
 At one phase of their fight against the unfavorable wind, Capt Edwin Musick and his crew of five made only 79 miles in 60 minutes, reducing their average speed con- siderably.
 At dawn they were still bucking the wind and conditions did not im- prove materially after the sun had risen.
 Pan-American Airways officials, waiting hereA for the plane's arrival, were not yet ready to revise theri estimate of an 18-hour flight.

MOFFETT MIGHT

Washington, April 23.-(UP)- James A. Moffett, federal housing administrator, may be prevailed upon to take a leave of absence instead of resigning, it was report ed to-day at the White House.
 Moffett, who recently said he planned to quit and leave May 10 for China, was a luncheon guest of Mir Roosevelt.
 During the luncheon, 1t was in- dicated, he was to be prevailed upon to take a leave of 60 to SO days instead of resigning.
 If Moffett quits, 1t appeared he would urge President Roosevelt to mainatin the present houseing set. up. Suchc a decision would step up Stewart Macdonald to the post of acting administrator.

Dean in the United States is ono of the. most interesting experi- ments of the present time, and President Roosevelt probably is the most interesting man in the world today. He is man of im- mense courage and extraordinary will-power. He yields a power, compared, with which the power of Hitler or Mussolini is very small.
 President Roosevelt Is a born leader and one simply can not resist him, not even his enemies. He has an amazing position among the countries of the world. He has restored to the United States an entirely new spirit and a new heart"

Midwestern Altruria.
fNeW York Times

From the conference of New England Republican Rejuvenators, called by State committees, came no healing word What could be expected of cool and calculating Yankees? Their brethren of the Mid west are of nobler temper. The Grass Roots are murmurirg sweetly. Repubicanism, lifeless it may seem in all the nine States except Kansas to be represented in the conference to be held at Springfield in June, is awakening. At least the alarm clock has done it's duty. America is to be 'arcused." Cynics may say that the site of Lin eolns tomb as a place of Republican assembly is pretty good piece of symbolism. Such coarse souls are unable to appreciate the lofty purpose of the Springfield meeting.
 It is to be composed of "unselfish Republicans anly:
 There shall be no place in this confer
 ence for the selfish reactionary; neither
 shall there be a place for the equally selfish
 radical or sef-seeking demagogue.
 Almost it seems if Colonel Roosevelt were speaking. These Midwest Republicans dedicate them selves to altruism. They begin New Departure. They exhibit a New Reel What meek lover of the good will not rejoice to self-regarding motives banshed from Republican politics? And who the thinkers that kick Hobbes in the head and live for the good that they do? They are Republican National and State Committeeman. They have conceived the plan of this UnSelfish Conven- ltion The number of the delegates from each State Irests with them They be depended upon to pick out the perfect flowers of devotion to others In the desert of party management this thorness rose has boomed Let us wonder at and be thank lful for it.
 Incidentally the conference will tell us how to lend the depression and "our very institutions. Momentous these objects are, and authoritative las the oracle of the Grass Roots will be- the version of Republican managers nine States, the disappearance Of selfishness from the Republicans lof nine States is even weighter matter Rip Van Wrinkle woke up with a gray beard.

Paganism Returns to Germany.
lKansas City Times.l


 Despite the temptation to hold absolute die tator responsible for all the eccentric movements launched in the of his regime, obviously it would be going beyond the evidence to identity Rechsfuehrer Adolf Hitler with the religious sect in Germany that has rejected Christianity in favor of faith which proclams Herr Hitler the prophet of God At least nominally the Nazi dicta- tor is a member of the Catholic church and the present regime has lent it's support to faction within the German Protestant church. which, how ever it may seek to bring the denominations af- fairs under the control of the State, does not countenance pagan faith
 The Nationalist Socialist Party in Germany con- tains many fanatics whose activities the regime has failed to curb Whether such failure is due to sympathy with their particular projects or to the exgencies of the political situation. it is not al- ways easy for foreigner to determine But certain facts with respect to religious conditions in Ger many today unacceptable
 The Christian churches for example, have been constantly harassed by the Government. Protestant pastors have been taken to concentration camps for resisting the Governments efforts to obtain control of the administration of their church. others have been arrested for even daring to pray for their oppressed colleagues Catholic and monks have been arrested what to be purely technical charges in connection with foreign ex- change operations And both Catholic and Protestant newspapers have been suppressed because they were not "co-operating" with the Governments religious policies
 On the other hand, the regime seems to have made no effort whatsoever to interfere with the pagan faith movement in Germany. It is reported to have sanctioned the recent rally in Berlin at which Herr Hitler was proclaimed the instrument of Gods revelation to the German people, and all Nazi church publications were specifically ex empted from the new religious press law The inference is plain Whether for spiritual political reasons, the Hitler dictatorship is allowing itself to appear before the world at least passively sympathetic to the current revival of organism in Germany
