BY CASPAR NAMES.

Dy SASTAh NANNLSs
Twenty-three years ago Is people
gathered in the home of the Rev
Herbert w. Kline, at 500 Third
street NV, for prayer. Out of this
group has come the present Bethel
Pentecostal Tabernacle at North
Capitol and K streets.
The numbers attending the meet
ings soon became too large for Mr..
Kline's home and permit was Sc
cured to hold street meetings. On
January /, 1923, the group, then
totaling 36 members, moved to the
second and third floors of build
ing on the southwest corner of
Ninth and E streets NV. for their
meetings. The place was called
Bible Hall"
In December, 1923, Mr.. Kline, at
one time superintendent of the
Union Gospel Mission, became su-
perintendent of the Potomac Dis
trict of the Assemblies of God. This
movement originated in Topeka,
Kans., and at Azuza Street Mission
of Los Angeles, Calf, in 1890, and
became generally known throughout
the country during the years 1905
to 1910. Its outstanding feature is
teaching the new birth, John, iii.16,
and baptism of the Holy Spirit
with the power of witnessing and
evangelism OF the world. The Cen
eral Council of the Assemblies of
God was organized in 1914 with
headquarters at Springfield. Mo.
The congregation was ministered
by interdenominational evangelists
until 1927 when the Rev. Kenneth
Carson came as pastor. On January
i, 1927, the group was organized as
an Assembly of God member. 1t
was the first Pentecostal group in
the city to affiliate with the ma
tional organization.
Members then who still hold
membership in the congregation are
Mrs. Cora M. Kline, widow of the
late Mr.. Kline; Mr.. and Mrs. G. c.
Currier, Mr.. and Mrs, C. B. Farmer,
Mrs. Edith A. Hussey. Mrs. Ida M.
Martin and James H. Hall. Mr..
Currier served as treasurer from
1923 to 1888.
The Rev. David Mcdowell sue
ceeded Mr.. Carson as pastor in Sep
tember, 1928. The congregation
moved that month into the old
Hamline M. E. Church at Four
teenth and Emerson streets NV,
remaining there until March, 1929.
The Rev. Samuel Croft followed
Mr.. Mcdowell as pastor, March,
1928, to August, 1928, and was sue
ceeded by the Rev. Ralph McMakin
In April, 1929, the congregation
rented the second floor of building
at Sixth and G streets NV, naming
1t Bible Hall" The Rev. Nimrod
Park of Pittsburgh served as minis
ter for a short time. He was sue
,ceeded by the Rev. Harry v. Schaef-
fer, the present pastor, in June,
1880. Mr.. Schaeffer was unable to
come until September and the Rev.
James r. Hummel of Philadelphia
acted as supply pastor in the in
term.
During January, 1885, the congre-
cation changed its name from
Bible Hall" to Bethel Pentecostal
Tabernacle" Three years later the
group purchased the present build
ing from the Full Gospel Taber-
nacle. The latter had bought the

Sugar Shortage
To Be Expected

Immediate valuation of the
next sugar stamp in time for holi-
day meals would probably result
in severe shortage, L. w. Dris-
coll, OPA District Director, said
today.
Replying to stories of ware
houses reputedly "bulging with
sugar." Mr.. Driscoll said that a
survey of December l showed
that present sugar supplies in the
Southeast, rather than being p1en-
tiful, are in fact 16 per cent less
than at the same time last year.
Additional receipts for the next
two months are expected to be
considerably below those for the
corresponding period a year ago,
he added, which indicates the
critical shortage will continue.
THE turn of the year will find
only 100000 tons of sugar avail
able from Cuba and Puerto Rico
in 'carry-over' stocks from the
preceding CROP" Mr.. DriscoII ex-
planned. This, he said, is 70 per
cent drop from the 100000 tons
available last January l, and the
Department of Agriculture, which
allocates sugar to OPA for civi1i-
an rationing has not indicated any
expected increase in the near fu-
ture.
Mr.. Driscoll stressed that the
valuation of the next sugar stamp
at any time prior to January I
would be deliberately inviting a
disastrous shortage later on"
