This would!be done, it was pointed

THOUSANDS ATTEND
WHLFARE SESSIANS
Bishop McConnell _ Closesi
- Annual Event With Ad
dress Wednesday Night
Between five and six thousand
people attended the three sessions
of the Annual Religious Welfare
Conference at the University of
Georgia Wedresaay .
Bishop Francis J. McConnel:.
New York, for:ne&‘ly president «f
the Federal Council of Churches
of Christ in Awmerica, and noted
Methodist minister, was the prin
cipal speaker. He spoke at 11
o'clock Wednesday morning, at 4
o'clock in the afternoon, and again
Wednesday night. At the aftenc
noon meeting an open forum was
conducted by the bishop. The
opening and closing sessions were
at ‘Woodruff hall.
At Wednesday night's meeting,
Bishop MecConnell spoke on the
subject, “Christian Appeals to
Best in Men.” He said, in part:
“The Christian religion is the
only institution 1 know of that
has as few compulsions. 1t is subp
ported by no one indi&idual, but
by the people. Therefore no im
position can be made on any one
individual."” .
Bishop McConnell contrasted the
ideas of religion of the eighteznth
and nineteenth centuries With
those of today. To illustrate, he
told of the farmer of the eigh
teenth century who had three
sons. When these sons had be
come voung fhen he called the
three together and lined them up
against the wall. The first boy
was of considerable size and very
strong; the father decided the
only thing for him to do was to
become a farmer. ' The other two
boys were not strong like the first
go the father decided that they be
preachers as the farmer thought
that all preachers were just a
group of weaklings. “But today
ministers are not looked upon like
that. They are looked upon as
social agents, working for so
ciety.” g
The real aim of Christianity
is to get the hearts of individuals
into play in the direction of bet
ter social conditions. Look for
men with power to do things. The
purpose of Christianity is to get
the order of appeal that has not
been presented that will help so
ciety best. “This rot that relig
jon is dead is' out of question.”
To illustrate, he referred to one
denomination as spending eighty
million dollars for the advance
ment of society. Adding to this
illustration, he said, ‘“Spending
eighty million dollars doesn't
sound like the work of a corpse,
does it?”
“There are two ways of teach
ing man. Mhe method of Jesus and
the church, and the secular meth
4d. 'The Jesus and the Church
method is to apply to the highest
and best in the man. Thg secular
method is by going out, catching
people on their weak side, and
appealing to them from there.
Thus the purpose of Christianity,
is get a better type of man, a man
‘who will respond to nobler ideals,
catch the man on his strong point.

SEVATE TO VOTE
OST K
WASHINGTON—(#)—A decision
between 80-hour and a 36-hour re
striction faced the senate Thurs
day as it neared a final vote on
a .measure whieh would shorten
the work week in industry so as
to spread employment.
Robinson of Arkansas, the Dem
ocratic leader, proposed ch:unging
the limit in the bill sponsored by
Senator Black (D.-Ala.) from 30
to 36 hours. He said he thought
it would be acceptable to Pres
ident Roosevelt.
But he stirred up opposition and
there was no indieation as to
which restriction might prevail.
The Black measure would prohibit
the movement in interstate com
merce of mine and factory prod
ucts on which labor was employ
ed more than five days a week or
six hours a day. Speaker Rainey
said the house would not consider
the revolutionary proposal unless
it were made a part of the Roose
velt program. Black who has dis
cussed it with the President, said:
“I am confident the house will
consider the bill.” ' |
As soon as a vote has been had
on the Black bill, the senate was
ready to take up the adminfstra-‘
tion farm relief program. Indica
tions were that it would encounter
rather slow and rough going, but
leaders © predicted its ultimate
passage. r

““Watch Parties” Being

i
i e
{ By The Associated Press
{
| A large part of the country goes
‘off the near beer standard at 12:01
{a. m, local time, Friday.
| In 19 states and the District of
FColumbia sale of beer containing
3.2 per cent alcohol by weight (4
per cent by volume) becomes legal
at that time.
| Brewers in some of those states
plan to deliver beer as soon as it
becomes iegal. Others, ruling out
jubilee parties at midnight, say
beer will not be delivered much
| before breakfast time,
i The 19 states in which beer be-.
comes legal at 12:01 a. m. are
’Ariznna, California, Colorado. Del
‘aware, Illinois,. Indiana, Kentucky,
Maryland, Minnesota, Missouri,
‘Munt:ma. Nevada, New Jerséy,
New York, Ohio, Oregon, Pennsyls
vania, Washington and Wisconsin,
Six other states have set spe
cific later dates for the twist of
the beer spigots. They are Louisi
‘ana, April 13; Vermont, May 1;
| North Carolina, May 1; Wyoming,
.Ma_v 18; West Virginia, June 9:
yand North Dakota, July 1. Bti};
jothers have proposals pending to
ileganzc beer.
Regulations Vary 4
I The ' regulations vary- as to
‘where and how beer can be sold.
The price is expected to vary also
in different places of sale, One
price quoted frequently in New
York was $1.60 wholesale for a
case of 24 bottles. e
The decision to prohibit sales in
many states until 6 a. m. was made
by the United States Brewers as
sociation. Beer makers said hilar«
ity due to stronger drinks other
wise might be unjustly blamed
upon -the brew. 2y
The sale in some states will be
made without regulatory laws for
the time being. Illinois is ameong
these. i
Connecticut has no prohibitory
law, but Wednesday the legisla
ture, under a suspension of rules,
forbid sale until April 25, unless
regulatory '_X?yii!atlon is plm—fa',,
the meantime.
The, “suds” will not be welcomedy
very generally in the south Fflm
Kentucky and Maryland being the
only two states where sale will be
legal. The situation in the other
southern states which have';?lf'
provided for the beverage on laté
| dates lines up about as follows:
f The Attorney General of Arkan=
'sas sald that veteran dry ate
would have to remain as “dr;’ify
'n camel's tonsils” until its law .'
beén changed. s v
' Missigs.ppi is “bone dry” ~and
there is no immediate prospect of
'a legislative change. X i id
t Alabama only recently legalized
near beer, and the bill to legaliz
'the 3.2 variety only this week ,'II:
be considered. Byt
Under Virginia's dry law bever
age of more than one half of ona
per cent is prohibited and hopes
for a special session of the geg{gf!‘
assembly before its regular meets
ing in 1934 were dashed when a
poll of the membership showed a
majority opposed such action.
Georgia “Dry” 8
Georgia also prohibits bevetage
of more than one half of one per
cent alcoholic content and the legis=
lature recently defeated a measure.
which would have legalized ' 3.2.
!’l‘ho state dpes not even permit
|the manufacture of malt fluids to
limitate or substitute for bere. *
Neither Florida, Tenr2ssee. nor
South Carolina have enacted the
necessary legislation. :
In the District of Columbia the
sale will not be permitted to per=
sons under 18 ar teo automobilest.
The commissioners will decide it
the heverage is to be sold on gove
ernment property and in the ctp; 2
