Why a Police Escort
For Night Club Visitors?

To the Editor Of The Timss:
The following item Is from
The washington Times.
washington Is in . staggering
and wild state.
"Dr. w. s. Abernathy, pastor
of Calvary Baptist Church, Wash
ington, so told delegates to the
final session Of the General Mis-
sionary Council today at Mount
Vernon Place Church. He said:
"'The Saturday night before
Christmas invited IL fellow min.
listers to accompany me on q
tour Of Washington. We were
guided by the police chief and
four inspectors. The sights we
saw in station houses and night
clubs astonished us. They were
a challenge to the ministry of the
evangelists.'"
Here ends the reference to
Washington. Since when has 1t
become the duty Of the police
chief and four inspectors to act
as guides to delegations Of min.
listers who want to see q little
night life?
Every man has a perfect right
to his private religious convic-
tions, but does it not smack q
little Of mixing religion with po-
lice duties when a police chief
undertakes to unfold the "alco-
holic" honors of washington so
that visiting delegates can return
home stuffed with propaganda to
the effect the national city is q
stink hole Of iniquity and license
that only the Mr.. Guyer's bill can
clean up?
I point to DR.. Abernathy's com.
plimentary statement regarding
his fellow citizens of Washington
as proof for the impressions which
will be created in the minds Of
the good people back in towns
and villages where it is consid-
cred a sin to drink a glass Of beer.
Does Mr.. Brown seek to bring
back the good old days when
Mr., Rover held forth in the U. S.
District Attorneys office? The
days when q United States Sen.
ator was shot down during a pis-
tol battle between police and boot
leggers? A Sister of Charity was
killed by bootleggers fleeing police.
and wild chases and gun play

ARRANGE SHOWING
OF RED CROSS FILM
LOCAL CHAPTER TO HAVE
PICTURE PUT ON TOMOR-
ROW NIGHT

"The Red Cross To The Res
cue" is the title of picture to be
shown tomorrow night at the Mon
roe Theater through the courtesy
of the manager.
This picture was made at great
expense to the national Red Cross
and shows how the Red Cross
workers speed to the relief of
those who have been overtaken by
a major disaster, and how the
money collected for membership
is used to alleviate the suffering
of those in distress. ..-es,.n
1t is hoped that this picture will
arouse interest in the work of the
local chapter, and make possible
the success of the annual roll call
drive, which opens on Armistice
Day and closes on Thanksgiving
Day each year, it is stated.
The local chapter officers point
out that it is from the Red Gross
that those in distress seek help,
but without the assistance of ev-
eryone in the roll call drive, the
local chapter will be unable to aid
anyone.
1t is expected that the picture
to be shown tomorrow night will
create interest in the Red Cross,
and prove an incentive toward
interest in the local chapter, it is
said.
