Baltimorean Pastor Bemoans Lack
Of Leadership Among Baptists

BALTIMORE, May 1-(ANP)
Rev. George "A. CraWley, pas
tor of Baltimore's st. Paul Bap-
fist church, declared this week
that the recent death in an air
plane crash of DR.. L. K. Williams,
president Of the National Baptist
Convention, left that great con-
ference body cropping in the dark
and without adequate leadership
to carry on the Baptist program.
DR.. Williams, who pastored Chi
cago's famed Olivet Baptist
church (said to be Americas Iarg-
est Protestant church organiza-
tiCn) was nationally known as a
race and civic leader, and as a
lifelong Republican held high
rank in the inner councils Of the
party.
Pointing to a solution of the diff
ficulty now confronting the Nat
ton Baptist convention, Rev.
CraWley said:
''The great question Of today in
our denOminationaI circle is: Who
shall be the next president Of
our great National Baptist Con-
Vention and what type of man
shall he be?' When DR.. L. K.
Williams died, the convention pro-
gram came to sudden halt, and
we are ready now to grappIe over
the problem Of the next president
at the expense Of the cause. Per
sOnally, I am more concerned a
bout making the perpetuity Of
the convention safe, than I am
about any man in the country as
president Of the convention.
owe have a convention and ev-
erything that is needed to make
it the most powerful body upon
earth, but it is like a dissembled

he is out Of place nobody goes to
town in the car. If our govern
ment were affected at the death
of our president, like the Nation
al Baptist convention is, we would
have been long out Of business.
The National Baptist convention
should be so reOrganized before
another election that at Lnc nome
going Of the leader, we Will not |
be thrown into another catastro-

the type of program which should |

safeguard the peace, and Vouch- |
safe the highest and greatest use
fitness in the many needs which |
cry to the convention day and
night
THAT there be no repercussion
in the future, the convention
needs to encourage and promote
free thinking and then, not seek
to cut a mans head off because he
does not think like some indi-
viduals would think. He is NOV
al back and branded az danger
Gus, because he speaks his Opin-
ion. We must have a program
and the entire policy Of the con-
vention shaped by. the construct
i've, thought combined Of all our
leaders. Not by the self-styled
or self-assumed leaders.
"The convention must not be
shrouded and buried in geogra-
phical individualism 50 its mem |
bers cannot breathe without some
enc asking, is he with us?' The
question should be Does the mat
ter desrve our thought?' We
need to encourage men to think
and speak instructively with

as practiced at reception centers is
designed to fit a round peg in a

and so does the Army.
They have their tough boys here
at Camp Lee, but the reception
center has an efficient way of ham
ding such cases. A contingent ar
rived here recently from-we won't

Army got rid of them by simply
shipping them back to where they

Seventy-four officers of the three

The division also is asking assign

Reserve officers are to include 72

Despite the hot-air systems in
stalled in every division building,
despite the most strenuous efforts
of stoking details, the Arctic gale
which has ragged over camp for the
last two days was too much, and
many Of the structures were far
from warm. The icy wind sifted
in through the cracks.
In some regimental headquarters,
paper work was carried on by staffs
wearing overcoats and trying to hit
typewriter keys with gloved fingers.
The weatherman's promise of
milder weather was hailed with
equal satisfaction by the staff di-
recting the training program and
the men themselves. Outdoors ac-
tivities were suspended by the high
wind and bitter cold.

FORT GEORGE G. MEADE, Md,
March 19.-The most unpopular man
in the Army may be on his way out.
Reference is made, of course, to
the bugler, who gets fellows up at
5:45 am. every day and is always
sounding a peremptory summons to
do something or be somewhere.
This lug, of course, has his points,
as every soldier will admit. Once
in a while he blows recall from drill
and mess call, and even, at tre-
mendous intervals, pay call. But, on
the whole, from reveille to taps, he's
pretty much of a nuisance, though
naturally he can't help being
bugler, just as chigger and wasp
can't help being what they are.
And now, in this age Of mechan-
istic revolution, he, too, may be
doomed.
At least, right here in the 18th
Division, a daring innovation Is
about to take place.
Canned" Bugle Calls.
Col D. John Markey, commanding
the 115th Infantry, the old 1st
Maryland National Guard Regiment.
from counties all over the free State,
disclosed today plans to abolish
well, not the bugle, but the bugler.
The 115th, is to have, of all things,
canned bugle calls.
And why not? Demanded Col.
Markey.
"We'u use records of bugle calls"
he conf1ded.
These records will be broadcast
over a public-address system the
regiment has ordered and expects
to have delivered soon.
Col. Markey pointed out that,
with expertly recorded bugle calls
pipsd into each company area, you
woulG have uniformity of tone and
volume, assurance that the calls
were being played as they were
composed.
Evening star., 1941-03-19
Mechonizotion May Fulfill
Soldier Curse on BugIers
Experiment Planned at Fort Meade
Could Shunt Comp Pests to Other Duties

1t might be different, he conceded,
II you could find enough good
buglers, but you were lucky to find
one to a regiment. 1t was bad
enough for soldier to have to get
up for reveille when the people back
home were just settling down for
another nap, but blue notes were an
added insult to sensitive ears.
Inspired Wartime Song.
Besides, Col. Markey added, the
buglers wouldn't have to be called
away from other duties at all hours
of the day and night.
Once, the last time America was
training millions of soldiers, they got
to singing a song in which a rookie
promised some day he was going
to annihilate the bugler and then
attend to the fellow who got him up.
1t may be, hereafter, that sleepy
soldiers will have nothing more
tangible to cuss out than a thin
disc and an arrangement of tubes
and nicrophones But no doubt
they'll contrive something like:
There goes that contraption, blast
its such and such innards. May its
metal rust and its blankety blank
canned voice choke in it's blank rub
Der throat"
How far Col. Markey's idea may
go, no one will venture to predict
at the moment. But undoubtedly
his experiment will be watched with
interest by the other regiments.
Generally speaking, every COM
pany or battery rates a bugler. It's
safe to say that, even If the me-
chanical bugle-blower becomes regu-
!ation, the good buglers will get
jobs trumpeting in bands. There
are never enough f1rst-class bands
men.
Promotion of 331 officers to the
next highest grades has been rec
commended by unit commanders of
the 29th Division. Several special
promotion boards to be named from
the I'd Army Corps will pass on ap-
pointments, which will not be an
nounced until the boards have COM
pleted their examination of the
candidates.
The list will be forwarded to the
boards soon by Maj. Gen. Milton A.
Reckord, division commander, and
action is expected in the next few
weeks.
In Washington's 121st Engineers,
Col. John w. Oehmann, command
ing, recommended promotion of /
captain to major, first lieuten-
ants to captains and 13 second
lieutenants to be first lieutenants.
One second lieutenant is to be added
to the regiment from outside.

CHAIN STORE
 BILL PASSES
 HOUSE, 14-2
Reject h. itiative, Referendum
 Measure by Smith

Rep. Frank Gordon's bill to im- pose license tax on chain stores opeartmg in h'lssa was passed by the House of Representatives this afternoon by vote of IA to 2 after the House had inserted an amend ment specifically exempting com- panies dealing principally in petro- leum products. .,
 Members voting against the bill were James V. Davis and W. Leon ard Smith. .....
 Davis said the measure was aimed at Sears Roebuck and Montgomery, Ward and Company but would only have the effect of causing those firms to close their order offices in cities where the volume of business is not large enough to justify pay ment of the tax The result would be that those communities would lose even the rent and employment they now obtain from the com panies while the people would go on ordering from the companies by mail order.
 Tt seems to me it is up to this Legislature to protect the con- sumer. for once, and not everlast- ingly the merchant" Davis declared
 Gordon countered with state ment the bill would give the legi- timate merchant a fair chance to do business in his home town, by making the order offices pay a fair tax, as merchants now do.
 The tax under the bill is gradu- ated from S10 per year to $500 per year. depending upon the number of branch offices the chain has throughout the country.
 Rep. Harvey Smiths initiative and referendum bill was defeated by vote of five to II after op- ponents had declared the bill would create a condition of turmoil and would lead to rule by a "mob- Ocracy. l,.l,..
 Only measure introduced in the House. today was a memorial hy Rep. Jesse Lander asking Congress to withdraw Cinema Hot Springs as National Monument dedicated to Will Rogers and Wiley Post.
 The House adjourned until II O. clock tomorrow.
