Today's Bible Meditation
e oo A e
Thursday, February 20—Read Revelations 3:14-22.
| know thy works, that thou art neither cold
norihot: | would thou wert cold or hot.
Others tell us what we fear is only too true, that
our ‘Church is lukewarm in motive and works; that
we tend to be exclusive and complacent. Thig year’s
statistics put us at the top in parochial expeditures
and at the bottom in giving for missions. Is that a
good sign, even after all explanations are made?
How many of our members are nominal? They
neither, believe, attend, learn, worship, nor give
Our passion for souls is not a burning flame.
But thank God, the Forwird Movement is discov
ering, all over the land, devoted and loyal members.
They are a joy and inspiration to the clergy. The
clergy themselves are taking new heart of grace, We
have a renewed vision of the Church'g purpose. She
is set in the world for man’s redemption. ‘lf ~the
Church is obedient to Her Lord, in one generation
He can transform Her into the instrument of @ His
power. He will add to our number many that are
being saved. Pray for the Church. Rally to the
halp of the Church, in your parish, through your
home.
CATTON'S COMMENT
8Y BRUCE CATTON
/
If you win a war for your country, you will get a
great monument, If you do something for medical
science, they will name a hospital for you. If you
becorhe a famous statesman, you will be enshrined
in the history books; and if you are a great movie
star, 'your face will be preserved forever on rolls of
crackling celluloind.
But thiere is no kind of fame quite as strange as
that which a man gets if he spends his life advo
cating some sort of change in his country'g currency
You may not be familiar with the name of Coin
'?n’rv'yy. put your grandchildven undoubtedly will
nd it in their history books ,when they get around
to such things. For Coin Harvey was the finest
fruit ‘and flower of .the old Bryanite, Fopulist 16-to-1
free qnver era,
He wag the Father Coughlin and the Dr. Town
gend ‘of the ’'9os, with some added picturesque traits
all his own, ;
Coin Harvey died just the other day, and his
countfy hardly noticed his passing. He wag a salty
and individualistic person, though, and his memory
ought not to fade away too fast .
He battled for free silver along with Bryan, and
when his panacea Wwas rejected by the electorate,
he prophesied dire things. American civilization,
he believed, would collapse because its money policy
was unsound; some day, archeologists would come
digging around in the ruins, wondering what had
caused the dowpfall, * )
Coin Harvey wanted to enlighten them. So he
prepared to build a great pyramid, in Arkansas, in
the base of which would be deposited his written
explanation of the death of the nation which had
rejected free silver. The pyramid was never finished,
but its base was built and a few years ago it housed
one of the strangest national political conventions
ever seen.
This was the convention of the “Liberty Party,"
called by Harvey to rescue the nation in 1931 Old
time Populist and Free Silveritse mingled with up
to-date radicals from the cities, Adherents of Kan
sas’ goat gland specialist, Doc Brinkley, were on
deck: Non-Partisan Leaguers from the northwest
were there; together with divers assorted cranks
of no party at all.
These delegates nominated Coin Harvey for the
presidency. He made the race in 1932, gathering a
total of 53,000 votes, Then thé country completely
forgot him, and his death recently went almost un
noticed.
So what? Was it all wasted, this unimaginable
energy that was poured into a nostrum which the
country rejected? Was Coin Harvey a useless crank,
and nothing more?
By no means. These agitators are useful citizens.
They jar us out of our complacency, force us to
re-examine things we take for granted—and in the
end, by announcing that Utopia is just around the
bend, help us to advance an inch or so on the long,
toilsome journey to our destiny.
. Secretary Ickes has annonuced that the gigantic
Boulder Dam and power house will be accepted from
the contractor March 1, two years ahead of sche
dule. The first battery of generators will be started
in May or June.
When the wheels begin to turn, engineering can
chalk up a truly signal achievement—the greatest
in dam building in all world history. Moreover, this
great -reservoir, storing as it does millions of acre
feet of water for power and irrigation, symbolizes
the progress of America,
‘Regardless of economic merits of the huge pro
ject, ga'e may be sure that man’s ability to build
greater and greater structureg has not waned. That
is an important fact to civilization,
© A New York educator, Dr. George J. Ryan, makes
the striking suggestion that candidates for teach
ing pestg be rated on their character and person
ality rather than on mere book knowledge, The jded
is well worht consideration,
The ability to develop a sound outlook on life,
and tye capacity to adjust himself to the world in
which he lives, are but two of the salient benefits a
teachér with real character and personality can pass
on to_ his students. A child ig influenced more by
one genuine personality than by hundreds of books.
- The idea, of course, should not be carried to ex
remes. Books contribute the finest backgrounds 1
‘both > nality and character. A happy combina
tion of the two approaches the educational ideal,
SHOULD EMULATE MEXICO
The Mexican government has inaugu
rated a movement to return to that coun
try most of its native pouulation who have
located in other countries. In the United
States, it is estimated that a half-million
Mexicans are now living in the southwest.l
Many of these people are on the relief,
role while the remaining number are hold
ing jobs that rightfully belong to Ameri
cans, It is the purpose of the Mexican
government to colonize them in agricul
tural sections where they can, at least, be
celf-supporting. Those who desire to re
turn to Mexico will be given monev to pay
their transportation and other expenses
enroute to their native land.
If other nations would adopt the same
policy, this country would soon be rid of
immigrants, many of whom are undesira
ble citizens. This nation has been entire
ly too liberal in its percentage of admis
sion to immigrants. While during the
World War the percentage was practical
ly eliminated, since the closing of hostili
ties, the lines of admission have not been
drawn tightly, and ‘annually, foreigners
have increased our population, Under
conditions that all countries have experi
enced during the past five or six years,
each nation chould be willing to take care
of its unemployed and not be permitted to
unload them on friendly inelined coun
tries. e
HAVE YOU EATEN CROW PIE?
Crow pie and roast' crow have become
the latest fad among the elite of Tulsa,
Oklahoma. It is said to be a delicacy of
unusual flavor and tempting to the appe
tite. In the early days in the south, it is
alleged that crow was one of the most
popular dishes, served in pies and baked,
all of which may be true, but in these days
of modernism and culinary advancement,
we are not inclined to the belief that the
crow will supplant the baked chicken or
the blackbird pie.
The crow is one of the most destructive
of 21l birds to grain of all kinds, especially
to corn. Commissioner Cravey, State
Game and Fish Protector was interviewed
on the subject of crow as a dish pleasing
to the palate. In reply Mr. Cravey said:
“Tt sounds good. I've put in an order for
gome crows so I can try it out. We have
been trying to put a bounty on crows, The
crow is Georgia’s most destructive bird”.
However, crow meat may be a delicacy,
just as rattle snake meat has been “tout
ed” to be the sweetest of all meats, but
when our order is placed for meat, it will
not contain that of crow or rattlesnake.
5 BEATING SLOT MACHINES
The extent to which unscrupolous and
:glis'hor}est people will go to cheat and rob
is indicated by reports made by the New
’York Telephone Company; the subway
system and the automatic restaurants
chain in New York. The telephone com-i
pany reported a loss of $315,000 for 1935‘
and the subway and food restaurant suf-1
sered losses in proportion. Slugs dupli
cating the size of a nickle are used to beat
the machines. Thousands of these slugs
have been manufactured and sold in New
York, so it was discovered by government'
secret servicé men. The manufacturers,
however, claimed that they did not know
to what purpose the slugs were being
used, but admitted that they had sold mil
lions to retailers throughout the city and
in return, the retailers had sold to the
public.
The manufacture and sale of slugs,
duplicating the size of a nickle, has grown
to be a racket and one of the most prof
itable industries. Those guilty of manu
facturing or selling these slugs should be
prosecuted and treated with under the
laws prohibiting cheating and swindling.
The purchaser -and user of these sluge is,
of course, criminally liable, but in a ma
jority of such cases, no doubt, represent
that element who have been unemployed
and without funds. That condition, of
course, does not justify the crime, but the
inducement offered by the manufacturers
to sell the counterfeit slugs should be con
sidered a more serious " violation of the
law, and should be so recoghized by the
courts.
OUTLAWING THE ICE PICK
The General Asscmbly of South Caro
lina believes in protecting its citizens
from deadly weapons. A bill has been
introduced by Representative Sloan mak
ing the ice pick a deadly weapon and fix
ing penalties for carrying one.
For carrying an ice pick concealed, the
proposed measure provides penalties of a
fine of S3OO or imprisonment up to six
months in all cases where conviction is
established.
The ice pick has grown to be the most
popular weapon. among the negroes of
that state. With an ice pick mounted and
ready for action, the average negro does
not want a better weapon for his protec
tion. It is the joy of his life, especially,
when he is visiting at a “hot supper”.
It is possible that South Carolina is the
first stute in the nation where ice picks
are outlawed. It appears to us to be a
good law, and if the legislature fails to
enact the measure, they will not have
done their duty.
In the United States during 1934, in
juries in the home caused approximately
34,000 fatalities, while automobile acci
dents took only 200 more than that num
ber. :
The original pronunciation of “geyser”,
which is an Icelandic word, was ‘‘geeser.”
This was later changed to “gavser”. and
finally Americanized to ‘“‘gyser”.

I Woatson Davis Speaks
By JEANETTE WILEY
‘ (Student in Henry *"W. Grady
l Schoq of Journalism) .
“Science is of growing impor
!tance to the South,” said Watson
i B Mol S
New Way to Hold
~ False Teeth in Place
Do false teeth annoy you by drop
‘wping or slipping? Just sprinkle a
little Fasteeth on your plates. This
new fine powder holds teeth firm
and comfortable. No gummy, pasty
taste or feeling. Sweetens breath.
Davis, editor of Science Service,
in the first Press Institute speech,
Wednesday. ‘‘Chemistry has dem
onstrated that the Bouth has a
great industrial future. If corn
can be turned into alcohol for mo
tor fuel, soy beans into new syn
thetic materials, cotton into rayon
and even other materials with
which we are not now familiar,
the farm will take on a new sig
nificance.”
Speaking on “Science and the
Press,” Mr. Davis said he regard
ed it as one of “the most encour
aging signs of our times” that
scientists and newspaper men are
cooperating more than ever be
fore. “Science is' a special assign
ment today. . . . The writers are
translators as well as reporters.
They are detechnicalizers. For In
stance, they must Kknow that
Pinus palustris means Georgia
pine.”
Elaborating the statement that
“science provides the most uni
versal appeal to the human race”
the speaker divided news sources
into three great fields: (1) the
human interest story, (2) mnational
and international affairs, and (3)
science, which is “intemationally‘
interesting.”
“We have yet to enter that state
in which we realize science as a
guide for personal conduct and
political affairs,” hedeclared. “Sci
ence strictly adheres to truth re
gardless of wbpreconceived notions
of what is right or wrong.”
Four great fields for scientific
conquest he gave as (1) control of
cancer, organic heart diseases,
and the common cold; (2) devel
opment of energy resources; (3)
an understanding of mental dis
iease and make-up of human per
‘sonality': and (4) discovery of the
secret of life.
Dividing all science into 15 ma
jor kinds: astronomy, mathema
itics, conquest of matter, physies,
chemistry, aeronautics, engineer
ing, invention, exploration, weath
er forecasting, Ilise processis, con
quest of disease, the ancestry of
man, pre-history of man, and psy
chology, Editor ' Davis reviewed
modern developments in each and
pointed out the potential power of
the press in future advancement.
CONGRESS ENCAGED
IN FIGHT OVER TAX
(Continued From Page Omne)
against any administration pro
posal to finance the new $440,000,-
00¢ farm program from taxes sim
ilar to the old AAA processing
levies invalidated by the Supreme
Court. ;
Taxes and relief were consider
ed the only remaining major legis
lation likely to raise a storm in
congress—but some legislators fig
'ured that storm might be ter
rific. :
' Tax experts of the treasury and
agriculture departments have
drafted tentative suggestions for
$900,000,000 in levies to finance the
farm program and some of the
bonus cost, but the White House
has not yet passed on the propos
als, so far as is known. The sug
gestions include levies on proces
sors and some revisions in income
tax exemptions. I
Senator LaFollette’'s bill, how-‘
ever, would be more sweeping. He
gsaid he would offer, if the admin
istration did not, an income tax
schedule similar to one he pro
posed last year.
Besides raising taxes on the
rich, it would lower the exemption
for married couples from $2,500 to
$2,000 and for .single individuals
from SI,OOO to SBOO. :
It would also jump the normal
tax from four to six percent and
start the surtax on incomes of
$3,000.
Others in the independent group,
both Republicans and. Democrats
were ready to join LaFollette in
opposing processing taxes, or sim
jlar levies. They contended these
were really sales taxes which
drew more revenue from the poor
than the B, .~ - .. £

cedented precipitation in the form
of both snow and rain over a
continuous period, which had de
veloped a slight deviation in the
constant high grade of the water.
The request that water be boiled
was made solely as a precaution
ary measure against the possibil
ity of contamination developing,
as no contamination was preesnl‘
at the time. ”
| Since the original statement
was issued, much favorable com
ment has been heard on all sides
as to the sane manner in vwhich
the situation had been handled-
Many are outspoken in their com
ment that the officials, foreseeing
the possibility of contamination
developing, did not wait until peo
ple were made sick to issue the
'warning, but in such manner that
no alarm or panic was caused and
neither was the city given unfav
orable publicity.
Citizens reacted t, the situation
in the same sensible manner in
which the statement was made
public and cooperated by bolling
drinking water, meanwhile appre
ciating the thoroughness of the
departments affected in warning
them of a possibility, which, while
it did not then exist, might later
and, at the same time, not cre
ating undue alarm by that warn
|ing.
HARRISON REFUSES
TO SIGN WARRANT
OF GOV. TALMADGE
(Continuea ¥rom Page One)
stand squarely with you in declin
ing to take any part in the with
drawal from the treasury of funds
that have not been appropriated
by ‘law.”
Governor Talmadge, when in
formed of the action of the two
state officers, sald:
“The judges are getting theirs.”
His reference wag to the salarvies
of the judges. i
‘When the governor came into his
office, his secretary, Mrs, Eva
Drew, called his attention to
Comptroller Harrison's letter and
the returned warrant which the
comptroller had declined to coun=-
‘tersign.
“Too bad,” the governor said.
[ May Order Troops
| There was a general feeling
about the capitol that Governor
Talmadge would order removal!
from office of both the comptroller
general and the treasurer for their
ref/sal to sanction his program.
Such a feeling was expressed in
offices on both Hamilton and Har
rison. Hamilton definitely said he
would be removed only at the point
jof a bayonet,
The governor set a precedent for
removing state officers by the na
tional guard when he ousted a three
man highway board shortly after
he came into office for his firse
term.
He also has ousted from office
a five man public service commis
sion, a state veterinarian and only
recently, the state forester.
When Governor Talmadge sign
ed the warrant earlier in the day, .
neither Hamilton nor Harrison
were in their offices at the capi
tol.
First to Return
They were in Atlanta conferring
with their attorneys. Hamilton was
the first to come back to his office
and said he had nothing to say at
that time but: that as soon as the
comptroller general acted he would
make known his stand.
Harrison returned to his office
about 1 p. m., and announced that
he shortly would have a statement.
l There was some delay when
Harrison sent the warrant back to
the state auditor with the request
that he note thereon from what
