Comptroller ]. F. T. O'Connor

the convention of the Virginia
Bankers Association, at Virginia
Beach. The delegates were to
have been addressed by Jesse H.
Jones, chairman of the Recon
struction Finance Corporation, who
was injured in an airplane acci-
dent earlier this week.
Many bankers from the Wash
ington area are attending the SeS-
sionS at the beach resort. YeSter-
day they heard a vigorous ad-
dress by Charles P. Blinn, jr.,
Philadelphia banker, in which he
urged the Federal Government to
balance the budget, discontinue
further Government borrowing,
control taxation, and return the
profit motive to business"
Only then, said the speaker,
will private investors supply the
capital and the capital loans re-
quired for business which only
governmental agencies are now
prepared to supply.
Others speakers were Charles
H. McComas, manager of the
Fidelity & Deposit Company, of
Baltimore, and Merrel P. Galloway,

80 When Jesus passed through
jericho on his way to Jerusalem ia
Gle, zaccheus sought to see JESUS
VINO he was; and could not for the
olowo, because he was little of sta
'ufe' And he ran on before and climb
ca up into sycamore tree to see
lin: Tor he was to pass that way."
ne was determined that no difficulty
should defeat his interest in Jesus
ne was willing to seem ridiculous to
the crowd if only he may see the
great Teacher of righteousness who
was interested in saving publicans
and sinners such as himself And no
such earnest interest in Jesus fails of
It's reward. For when Jesus came
10 the place, he looked up, and said
unto him, Zaccheus, make haste. and
come down; for today I must abide at
thy house. And he made haste, and
came down, and received him Joy
fully
Zaccheus' Conversion
what took place in Zaccheus' house
we must infer from it's results in
Zaccheus' offer to restore his illgot-
ten riches: "And Zaccheus stood, and
said unto the Lord, Behold, Lord, the
MALT of my goods 1 give to the poor;
and if I have wrongfully enacted
aught of any man, restore fourfold"
Here was not only repentance, but it |
proved it's genuineness by willingness
to make restitution. And all this was
born in a new faith in the Lordship
of Jesus. 1t was a genuine CONVEX
sion that proved itself in a changed
life. The life motive of getting had
become the life motive of giving. Be
cause of this change Jesus testified. |
To-day is salvation come to this |
house, forasmuch as he also is a son
of Abraham. For the son of man
came to seek and to save that which |
was lost What change the people |
of Jericho must have noted in their |
tax bills from that day; But not thro-
ugh changing statutes or rates but |
through changing the heart of a sin
ner through faith in Christ And this |
Son of Man is come to seek and to |
save that which is lost today by the |
same process of changing social con-
ditions by changing the hearts of sin
full men; by making rogues righteous,
thieves trustworthy and crooks clean. |
The Temple Cleansed
Where this can be done, when his
every appeal of love fails his only
resort is to judgment and condemna-
ton. To this he proceeded as che en-
tered into the temple, and began to
cast out them that sold, saying, It is
written, My house shall be a house
of prayer: but we have made it a den
of thieves"

In The Sir Walter Hotel,

Raleigh. May 15-Liquor was the
in,n,ediate and direct cause of almost
half of the States prison population
being in prison during the months of
January. February and March of this
wear and the direct and indirect cause
hack of the imprisonment of probably
as many as rs per cent of the pris-
oners according to figures obtained
here today from Oscar T. Pitts, act
ing director of the prison division of
the State Highway and Public Works
Commission.
Out of 1920 prisoners committed to
the State Prison system during the
first three months of this year, 1874,
or approximately As per cent, were
convicted and sentenced to prison for
some violation of the State liquor
laws, as follows: drunk, 1888; violat-
ing State prohibition laws, 40; drunk
and disorderly, 1858; driving while
drunk, 1856; total, 1,847.
But a great majority of those con-
vcted of other crimes or offenses
were drunk or had been drinking,
while these other offenses were COM
mtted, Pitts pointed out. According
ly, it is very probable that a majority
of 500 convicted of some form of lar
ceny had either taken drinks, were
partially drunk or were stealing to
get money with which to buy LIQUOR,
Pitts said. This also probably ap-
plies to the 1859 convicted of breaking
and entering, the $50 convicted for
assault, the 4O5 convicted of assault
with deadly weapon, the 1O4 convict
ed of assault on a female and the ~
convicted of murder, prison authori-
ties agree.
Most of those connected with the
prison system agree that although
State prohibition is supposed to be
in effect in 83 of the 100 counties.
that there is just as much liquor and
just as many convictions for VIOLA
tons of the liquor law in the dry"
counties as in the II wet" counties.
Most of tie 40 prisoners convicted
for violating the prohibition law,
were convicted either of illegal trans
portation of liquor or of bootlegging
IN so-called dry counties, the figures
show Many of the prison officials
frankly say they believe repeal of
the State prohibition law and a state
liquor control system would decrease
crime and reduce the prison popula-
ton.

person to broadcast this story in
way to attract a maximum of at
tention. And they hit on the Hawk

cause he is exceptionally sonorous

it good send-off. They thought thew
were doing him a favor. The speech
would add to his prestige. according
to their calculations.
1t might have done so if the public

ply Dickinson with the necessary

attend to the rest of it.
But they did not They tried to
help him.
A BLUNDER
In the first place, they wrote his
speech for him.
Then they wrote an article describ-
ing the breathless, Mortified fashion
in which a crowded Senate listened
to him. They mentioned the cans of
dog food on the Iowan's desk. as he
spoke.
Next they combined speech and de-
scription, mimeographed them and
distributed copies to the press-be-
fore the speech had been delivered.
Several of these copies fell into the
hands Of Democratic senators-pre-
maturely. When Dickinson got up to
speak they absented themselves.
There wasn't corporal's guard pre-
sent while Dickinson was speaking.
There were no dog food cans on the

UNIQUE FIGURE
Another unique figure in New York
Is U. S. Senator Robert F. Wagner
Although Senator Wagner is a men,

proud of him, he is considered one

his political friends. Even President

1t is interesting to observe that
Senator Wagner, whose housing bill
now is having hard shedding, contin-
ues to make predictions of reforms.
Senator Wagner predicts passage of
New Deal legislation to regulate

health insurance, to have relief re-
sponsibility definitely placed on the

Aaccheus was not only a publican

From all we learn elsewhere about
Rome's tax-gatherers it is fair to pre-

himself fairly and honestly. He was
therefore probably the most cordially

NEW LICENSES
READY DEC. l
Must Have Registration Ger,
tificate; Duplicate Not
Sufficient

With the approach of automobile
license time, motorists are request
ing definite information as to the
procedure to secure the new plates,
County Auditor Harley Chapman
offers the following list of facts and
suggestions:
Motorists must produce the pres
ent white registration certificate in
order to secure renewal of their Ii
cenSeS. If that certificate has been
lost, it is necessary for the register
ed owner to apply for and receive
back, duplicate, before his appli-
cation can be accepted. The yellow
title certificate can not be substi-
tuted. Sac - r. ..rr
Applications for 1897 plates may
be made on or after December /,
and not before except for the re-
newal of special request numbers.
The same fees will prevail this
year as for 1896. +
The 1897 plates will have blue
background with white raised let
tiers and figures, thus reversing the
color scheme now being used.
It is unnecessary for the car own
er to be present in making the Ii
cense application. This can be
done by his agent, providing that
the agent has in his possession the
white registration certificate and,
providing further, that there is to
be no change in legal ownership or
name.
In order to change legal owner
ship, special application form,
called a reissue of title, must be
completed and notarized. In such
cases, it is necessary to attach the
title certificate to this paper. A
change of legal owner may be made
