on the "reactionary press.

distinguish between news and prop

Holland D. Roberts, Stanford Uni
versity, second vice president of the
council, warned the teachers this
morning at the Claypool meeting
that again today are gathering the
propaganda forces of reactionists.

responsibility to teach adults and
children to take an active part in
the rebuilding of American Democ :

BLOND AGAIN

MURDER QUIZ
She Admits Pals Had Guns

Levy Staying.
ANDERSON POLICE HERE
They Hope to Quiz Girl Sus-
pect With Use of
Lie DeteCtor.

The discarded blond of a
gang of predatory gunner
today told state police that
her male friends carried As
caliber pistols and thus once
more implicated them in the
murder Monday at Anderson,
Ind, of Patrolman Frank M.
(Pete) Levy, who was killed
with bullets fired from a gun
of that size.
Although the blowzy girl, who has
lied smoothly to police since her
arrest Wednesday in Vincennes after
she was beaten by her companions
and abandoned, had insisted she
would not talk, she made this ad-
mission to Capt. Matt Leach of the
state police.
Having no technical knowledge of
guns, she picked out two .45-caliber
pistols from a variety shown her by
Capt. Leach as those most closely re-
sembling the arms carried by the
men.
Just as she made this admis-
sion, police officers arrived from
Anderson and they went into seclu-
sion with the girl to again cross
examine her, this time with the aid
of lie detector.
Blond Appears Nervous
Attached to the lie detector the
blond appeared nervous under cross
examination, and had to be warned
repeatedly not to watch the machine
but to look straight ahead.
She began to be flippant in her
answers, but was warned to an

Weekly Sunday School Lesson
JOSIAH "a Religious Reformer)

together, priests, prophets, and
people, "both small and great"
and here in their company he
read to them the words of the
Book Of the Covenant - that is, a
portion of the Bible, our Book Of
Deuteronomy, that had been dis
covered after years of neglect in
the temple.
It must have been an impress
sive scene as the king, now a
young man of 26. stood by the
! pillar reading the Book and
making q covenant with Jehovah
to keep his commandments, tes-
timonies, and statutes, and with
all heart and soul to live accord
ing to the words Of the COW
enant written in the Book.
The covenant, also, was not
something imposed upon the peo-
pie; 1t was, first of all, some
thing the king took to himself;
and all the people stood in rec
ognition OF their assent.
Every great reform has two as
poets. It seeks to build the new up
on better foundations, and at the
same time 1t sweeps away the old
and corrupt things that have
brought disaster and trouble. So
one Of the first evidences of this re-
form was destruction of the vessels
and symbols Of idolatrous worship
and suppression Of the idolatrous
priests.
1t was new day in Judah. The
great religious experiences Of the
past were restored to their true
meaning.
The permanent lessons Of such
a story are not difficult to empha-
size. All great reform begins in true
character and purpose, and in the
acceptance. explicitly or implicitly,
Of a covenant to do right.
A true ruler will covenant with
God and his people, and the peo-
pie in turn will covenant to OBJ
serve faithfully the laws and prin-
ciples that make for maintenance
Of order and welfare in society. No
real reform can be built upon the
false and decaying things that have
brought destruction upon society.
These lessons are profoundly
needed in these days in America,
when we are talking SO much of
recovery and rebuilding. Have
we shown SUFFICIENT intelligence
in renouncing the things that have
brought about economic depression
and moral and social evil?
Are we not in large measure try
ing to build the new society with
out sufficient regard for the new
spirit and the new materials?
