BROUGHTON PAID BY
REPUBLICAN PARTY
Continuing a ser.es of sermons
on “For What Does Our Church
Stand? 2” Dr. T, W. Tippstt told
members of his congregation at
the Prince Avenue Baptist chureh
Sunday night that he will from
time to time present to them a
matfnrm of principlis compris
g his conception of the duty of
a Christian Minister which they
may in conference accept or re
ject, with the understanding that
!.he latter course implies the call
ing of another pastor.
Dr. Tippett declared that it is
time for the Ministry and the
Church to “yethink” their rela
tionship to human aetivity, and
that he as a minister accents his
share of the blanie for the sack
of spiritual and soeial power of
th“ (‘h}'{sfiafl Ch’“!‘(’h in modern
socitty . s |
_Dr. Tippett, who two weeis ago,’
discussed the = presidential cani
paign, commenting on the duty 'o:']
the Ministry and the Church in
reference to the prohibition law
enforcemént questions, Sunday
night made only incidental com
ment on the campaign. His series|
grew out of a sermon by Dr. Len!
G. Broughton, evangelist, four,
weeks ago at the Prince Avenue
Baptist church, when he attacked
the cancidacy of Governor Alfred
E. Smith for the presidency. Dr.
Bropghton charged that “an or
ganized effort was made to pre
vent the meeting being held.”
Sunday night Dr. Tippett an
nounced .fwo of his principles for
the ministry, *“a divinely called
m:aistry” and “the Church as the
agency of gbq- Kingdom of God.”
He declared that “outside infll

pressure on the ministry and pre

guished citizen: who said 95 per
cent of - ‘he local ministers are
danined hypaerites.” Dr. Tippeit
asserted txt‘.*he {Jerson who
made the charge could not havel
meant *DF. E. L. ‘Hill, one of :
outstanding citizens,”“ng; Dr. S l
J. Cartl‘gge, Rev. S. Wing

W. P. King and John D. héeill
and “I might go on and nare,
others of the Athens ministry,
whose life compared with the gmn
tleman who uttered the word:;
would be found equally as true
blue.” ;
Dr. Tippett said, “I resent the
charge by a distinguished citizen
at a local political meeting that
cuch a man as Dr. Len G, Broug! -
ton is a liar,” when the “facts
substantiated what Dr. Broughton
said, as shown by next morning’s
paper. It has also been charged
that Dr. Broughton is paid by m’
Republican party; a lie born of
hell.” §
Dr. Tippett asserted that the,
“ministry is / being handicapped !
and embarrassed, afraid to speak
the message. of God, because of
fear of losing position and plac?.
The Church stands for a divinely
called Ministry,” and no official
noard of the Church, not even thd
“Dencons /can find authority in
the New Testamest to dictate o
the preacher.”
Dr. Tippett said he is williaz
to bear the charge of hypocri.y
against the ministry; “perhaps he
meant this speaker.”
Dr. Tippett declared, “it is 2
sorious thing not to be allow” 11
the right of frec speech,” and ve
ferring to the “threats against
the ministry” and expressed the
“hope that thé Prince Avenve
Baptist church will plant its feet
on the platform of righteous
ness.”. He said that “some of the
Deacons seem to think that they
have the right to dismiss the
pastor,” but that they have nc
such right to deal with a minister
“called of God,” but that if the
Church in conference does nut
feel its pastor is a “divinely
called minister they should ask
him to resign.”
The pastor asserted that the
Church Should be the agency of
the Kingdom of God not only in
regard to social and religions '\il
fairs but political as well. in
the course of his sermon he refer
red to theg“lack of courage” on
the part “officials” to cam
paign againgst “vices” and that it
was reported to him a “policemnn
said they gouldn’t get suppo-t
from the Hgher ups.” Monday,
in axplaining the above assertion
Dr. Tippets said that his state
ment mednt. “there is a lack of
courage on the part of some of
the eity officials to lead in :-t!
campaign for law esforcement
and against other vices” and that
“it is reported that there is no
necesgity to report such cases as
there is a disposition to do noth
ing about it.” He further said
he understands that the officials
{hemselves have a feeling that
he public would not support such
steps, which, he said, is offered
in explanation of the failure of

Out Statement,

i ATLANTA, Ga.——(AP)—Barry!
Wright, chairman of the Anti-
Smith democratic party in Geor
gia, Monday issued the following
statement:
“The Tammany committee to sk
charge of the state Saturday and |
notified ‘us all that they own thel
democratic party and that unless
we would vote for Tammanv Hail
and Al Smith, they would hang,
‘draw and quarter us.
“They told all the candidates
for office who are against Smith
that they had to resign, regar.i
less of the nomination, which
their people gave them.
“Hooper :lexander, for in
stance, who made the issue clear
in DeKalb count.- and who was
endorsed by a big majority of the
democratic voters of that county,
is now told that the bosses of De
' Kalb county have overturned the
wishes of the majority of the
voters of DeKalb county and thet
&Mr. Alexander should resign his
' pomination.
“This is simply another illus
tration of how quick Tammany
Hall has put its method into
effect in Geoorgia. It is absolut:-
ly contemptuous of the npeople
and believes that a few politicia s
have more rights and power than
the people of Georgia.
“The people of Georgia resent
this dictation and are going
express their resentment at th°
polls.
“Tt has also been the habit of
a certain class of politicians to
quickly forget that they are ser
vants of the people and try to
¢stablish themselves ag masters
of the people, This is what has
happened in Georgia since Al
Smith has turned the democratic
party of Georgia over to Tam
many Hall and the men who are
supposed to represent Georgia and
carry out the wishes of the peo
ple of Georgia are trving to erck
‘their whips over the backs of the
people and drive them to vote for
‘Tammany Hall and Al Smith, re
gardless of their principles and
wishes in the matter.
‘ “The Tammany crowd are des
perate; they are frightened to
death; they call their committees
together, had about forty men out
of a hundred, and proceeded to
assess them money and work.
“The people of Georgia are
tired of being abused. by this
gang of politicians and they are
not going to submit to the at
tempted dictation.” b

Presidential Campaign Near
ATLANTA, Ga.— (AP) —Ceonsolidation of stra
tegic fronts now is the dominant maneuver of the
presidential campaign in pteparation, fer'the su
preme. effort of the final two weeks,. ... . ..
. “No Quarter” is the password
as republicans :'gd democrats dig
in at every crossroad; no region
is granted immfnity because of
its political 'allegiance of th 2
past. And so as November 6
draws fatefully nearer the tide of
battle has reached into every
neighborhood, definitely urginr
the “Solid South” out of its his-l
torical democratic calm behind the
lines and into the zone of fire to
share prominence with the East,!
West and the North. ; [
With Herbert Hoover and Al
fred E. Smith having personally
paid their respects below the
Mason-Dixon line they are mov
ing now to other areas, leaving
the wooing of Dixie to their lieu
tenants. Having . completed . his
sccond swing through the country
that took him through some of the
south, the border states and the
mid-west, Governor Smith has
turned homeward to make his
last stand on the eastern sea
board. He goes to cover much of
the same region into which Mr.
Hoover has carried republican
preachment with his * Boston
specch and to which he will speak
again Monday night from the
governor’s own precincts of New
York ecity.
The coming week, which with
its successor are loked upon as
the vigor with which he has
gle, will find Hoover reverting to
the “front porch” style of cam
paigning, expressing his views to
visiting delegations but talking
really to every voter, while
Smith will be stumpine the coast
from Boston to Baltimore with
the vigor with whiec hhe has
waged his gubernatorial success
es. Hoover will surrender thel
eastern field to Smith during the
last days of the eampaign, whe n’
he strikes across country to vote
in California, stoppine in the
mid-west to make a last appeal’
to the disturbed farmer belt,’
probably at St. Louis on Novem
ber 1 or 2. |
With the race nearinz the
straightaway stretch, the closing
week has produced its quota of
high lights to' keep the electorate
on edge even without the other
enlivening faetors. It witnessed
an exchange between Hoover and
Smith that was more direct than
anv developed thus far, concern
ing ecach candidate’s exposition of
the other party’s tariff policies.
Ho ver diverted from his accus
tomed practice of almost ignor
ing the opposition to declare at
Boston that the democratic tariff
plan would depress wages and
farm vrices, and Governor Smith
promptly retorted that Hoover
must have written his speech
long before Smith discussed tar
i'f at Louisville, The governor
then engaged Secretary Mellon in
a discussion of governmental
