PAGE SIX STRIKING DOCK WORKERS DEFY 11. S. WAR DEPT. NEW YORK, Oct. 11.— (By As sociated Press) —A committee repre senting the striking longshoremen to day flatly refused a virtual ultima tum from the war department in re gard to handling four freight ships and six passenger ships now on their j way to New York. The war department had announc ed through Chairman Ripley, of the national adjustment commission, that it “intended” the ships should be handled. Ripley asked the strikers’ i committee if they would promise to take care of these ten ships and re ceived a flat refusal. Extension of the strike to coast wise traffic at every Atlantic port ap peared inevitable today. The only apparent hope lay in a meeting of j the strike committee with the na tional adjustment commission, which began this morning. Preventive for Cold Feet.

Dunaway, the evangelist i who will do the preaching during the I revival at Lee Street church, begin- ; ning today, is a man of unusual abili ty and power, according to those who know him. He was converted about 15 years ago. At the time of his conversion he was quite a society man in the city of Atlanta. Imme diately after his conversion became an evangelist of the Methodist church. He has labored with wonder ful success in practically every state in the union. Wherever he has gone he has been able to do a wonderful work. His converts “stick ” There are now some forty or fifty ministers of the gospel in the Methodist church, many of them the leading preachers of the church, who w T ere converted under Mr. Dunaway's ministry. He labors with a passion in the Master’s cause. He is not of the clap-trap school of evangelists. He is sane, practical and wonderfully spirit ual. He is of very pleasing per sonality and always gains the confi dence of the people in the first ser mon. It is said by many of the lead ers of the church that C. M. Dun away is without doubt the best evan gelist in the state of Georgia. Mr. Dunaway and Mr. Johnson, I pastor of Lee Street church, are close personal friends, the latter be ing converted thirteen years ago. Mr. Dunaway will speak at the Lee Street church each day at 10 a. m. ; and at night at 8 p. m.

This is a fea ture, as he is considered one of the best trombonists in the land. If you love good music don’t fail to hear him. Mr. Sewell will be assisted by a choir of twenty five voices with Mrs. IT. H. McLendon at the piano. Mr. j Sewell will use his famous book, j “World Revival Hymns” in the meet- I ing. “Highgate.” The word “Highgate” is derived • 'rom a gate erected over 400 years ■ |tgo to receive tolls for the bishop of ■ (London.
