Washington, Feb 14.-The rulers of the New York Stock Exchange are In for anjther pummeling, this time from Rep resentative Sam Rayburn, the man who pushed thruogh the Stock Exchange Conrtol act.
 Causus belli Is the obstructive tactics being used by Richard Whitney, Morgan-affiliated' head of the New York Stock Ex- change. He and his fellow off, ficers have sought to prevent drastic reform of the election system. By so doing they can thwart much of the reform ad- vocated by the Securities Ex change Commission. -'
 In a recent report to congress, 1t strongly recommended sweep ing revision of the election sys- tenn whereby the New York Exchange remains in control of the Whitney clique.
 Whercupon the clique rushed into print with q ballyhOO an- nOunccment of Q plan for q voluntary reorganization.
 But when Rayburn and SEC experts examined this much vaunted program they discovered that 1t proposed no fundament- al changes.
 Aroused by this maneuver, Rayburn is preparing an at- tack, which will bare New York Exchange methods before con- gress and call for the enactment of compulsory reform Legislation if the Exchange doesn't clean it's own house. s..
 PRECIOUS SECRETS
 During the weeks that their history making decision on the gold cases was being awaited. members of the supreme. court sometimes were subjected to good -natured tetasing regarding the momentous secret locked in their breasts.
 Visiting at the home of 2 friend one day, ruggedly-built Justice Harlan F. Stone was en- thusiastic about his hostess egg nog.
 'This is marvellous" he told her. i've never tasted egg nog so delicious"
 The lady was flattered, ex- plained that she prepared 1t from a secret" formula of her own. !"
 Cant persuade you to fct me in on the secrct?' Stone asked.
 ''I'if tell you what I'll do," she replied. "I'll tell you my secret If yOu'll tell me yours"
 The gold secret and the egg nog secret were both kept. ,l. TARIFF CRACK-DoWN

master of ceremonies at the Washington ball, and sat at table near Mrs Roosevelt.
 In the course fo the evening Eddie explained to the large gathering how he came to be present.
 'It's a great privilege to come to Washington" he said. "But am terribly busy and when was first. asked to. participate in this party I was reluctant about acc cepting. Then Mrs Roosevelt joined in the request, and of course I could not refuse her.
 "First because I admire her so much, and secondly because I couldn't turn down Q fellow ar. tist. We radio stars must stick tOgether.". r CONGRESS ROOKIE
 Congressman Heron Pearson mits he is amazed by the power of partisan politics on Capitol Hill.
 A blond, blueaeyed young lawyer, Pearson never held po- litical office until the Tennessee Valley remocrats sent him < from Jackson to Washington.
 "Any bill introduced by a democrat" muscs Pearson, s'is certain to be opposed by the 1O8 republican members, and, con. vefscly, any republican measure has the immediate opposition of S25 democratic votes"
 It seems to him that congress- men are more interested in party loyalty than in the merits of legislation.i
 Pearson will do no hair-tear- extension of REC loans to small Industries, which he hopes will boom ast a result@of IVA ac- tivity in his district.

but the stern duty, of the church
and synagog to occupy themselves
with social, political and economic
questions as they relate to the

Q-Are there two wings to the
Catholic Church - the religious
and the political?
A-There is no political wing
to the Catholic Church. Pope
Leo XIII said in his encyclical.
1.-The Christian Constitution Of
States; The Almighty has ap-
proved the charge of the human
race between two powers. the &c
clesiaStical and the civil: the one
being set over divine, the other
over human things" Jesus Christ
has Himself given command that
what is Caesars is to be rendered
to Caesar, ana that which be-
longs to God is to be rendered to
God.
AS to the relation of religion to
politics Catholics, and among
them the Catholic clergy, are citi-
zens of the country. Every Amer
lean citizen possesses a constitu-
tional right to free speech. The
Catholic Church does not "go po-
litical' when she thunders against
modern economical evils or of
fers the Catholic solution for
these modern problems or de-
nounces evil doors.
Protestant churches and Jew
ish synagogs also lift their voices
against many evils or in favor of
many proposals. Clergymen are
coming more and more to believe

Q-Is there any special music used
during Sabbath service in synagogs
AIN orthodox Synagogs no
music is played on the Sabbath.
Since the destruction of the Tenn
pie in Jerusalem by the Romans
the Synagog service has refrained
from using instrumental music, al
Though in modern times conserv-
alive synagogs the service is
chanted throughout to chants
which, for the most part. are ira
ditional and ancient. though con-
gregational hymns and anthems
by the choir are apt to be modern
compositions.
In reform temples very little
traditional and ancient music is
used. The traditional music of
the synagog is strikingly charac-
teristic. with its Eastern themes
and intervals. and the intense
emotion with which centuries of
suffering have Surcnarged it.

Q-Do Protestsnts believe in con-
feSSion?
1t is the general belief of Prot
eStants that according to the
teaching of both the Old and New
TeoCamentS confession of sin be-
fore God is a condition of forgive
ness, being the guaranty of gen.
uine penitence and a purpose of
amendment. Jesus exhibits the
prodigal son as moved by nat
ural impulse to confess to his
father. 1t is the common teach
ing of Protestants that all sin is
sin against God. and that confess
sion should be made to God.
1t is plain that Christ taught
also the necessity of acknowledge
ing, and obtaining forgiveness for,
offenseS committed against other
men. AS to the mode of confess
sion or the person to receive it. no
instruction is given. 1t is clear.
however, from the language of st.
John and st. James that it was to
be specific, definite and mutual.

.DUCE'S FINAL
WORD AWAITED
Britain and France Look to
Rome for Verdict on
Peace or War.
Copyright. 1895. bv United Press

ROME, July 22.-Benito Musso-
lini, defiant and in fighting mood,
is due this week to give Great Brit
ain and France the final word on
peace or war with Ethiopia.
If the week passes without an ap-
proach to pacific negotiation, it was
indicated today, war will be almost
inevitable.
Britain and France, it was learned,
were working on what they feared
and Italy believed offered the last
hope for peace.
Sir Eric Drummond and Count
Charles de Chambrun, the British
and French ambassadors. respective
", have been engaged in consulta-
lions with Fulvio Suvich, Mussolini' S
undersecretary for foreign affairs.
These consultations, it is under
stood on reliable authority, have
reached a stage where Mussolini
himself-his own foreign minister
AND the final authority-must be
consulted and say the words that
mean a precarious peace or certain
hostilities when the Ethiopian rainy
season ends in September.
A diplomatic break between Italy
and Ethiopia seemed imminent.
Italians have little faith in any pos
sibility of peace. Emperor Halle
Selassie's blistering speech of last
Thursday, in which he accused Mus
solini of deliberately fomenting war
for his personal aggrandizement,
dampened the little enthusiasm the
government had for allied efforts
to prevent an outbreak.

Until Mr.. CoSgrove has considered
the Attorney Generals opinion, the
conference scheduled with Albert
Deluse, council president, will not
be held.
Special Meeting Likely
Gen. Lutz ruled that no direct
authority exists for the appointment
Of Joel Baker as criminal court in
vestigator. Moreover, he said, be-
cause the legislature has made di-
rect provision for Investigations by
probation officers, it is doubtful if
Judge Baker could establish in a
court that Joel Bakers services are
necessary.
Following a conference with Mr..
Crosgrove, at which the opinion will
be discussed, Mr.. Deluse is expected
to summon special meeting of the
county council.
The council would be asked to de-
termine whether Joel Bakers
services are necessary for the proper
u
Council Transferred Fund
The council is vitality interest in
the case because, at the request of
Judge Baker, they transferred $500
appropriated for probation officers
salaries to Criminal Court inves-
tigation fund.
Gen. Lutz pointed out in his opin-
ion that Judge Baker has only direct
authority in law to name two bal
ifs, a chief clerk and probation
officers.
Probation officers are required to
be selected from lists of eligibles es-
tablished by the state probation de-
partment following competitive ex-
aminations. Joel Baker, probation
department records show, has not
taken or passed such an examina-
ton and is therefore not eligible for
appointment as a probation officer
Increase Is Proposed
The 1896 Criminal Court budget,
now on file with County Auditor
Charles A. Grossart, proposes an in
crease of 5000 a year for the "in-
vestigator." Judge Baker also asked
$4,000 for two probation officers.
Increase in his own pay to the
statutory $500 to be paid by Marion
County taxpayers, is asked in the
budget. If allowed this would make
the judges total annual salary s1O,-
900. The balance is paid by the
state.
The total demanded by the Grim
inal Court is S30,925, against the
S25, 040 allowed this year.
