W C Schaeffer, presi dent of the Evangelical Ministers' Association, which controls the ac tions of the executive committee de clared Monday morning that official action by the association is very Uk*- I \ should the criticisms attain con- ] m enable proportions and should de velopments warrant it "The committee's actions and the | publication of the bulletins clothed in i their present language have the hearty approval of the association," I Dr. Schaeffer declared, "and we are ; of the opinion that they are doing a ! lot of good The association meets next Monday morning at 10:30 o’clock and some action probably will be taken at that time, provided the at- j tack grows to large enough propor- | tion* to warrant \0‘ John E. Murphy, vice president of ! the Trust Company of Georgia and j one of the city's most prominent s eaders in civic affairs, Monday morn- « rg Joined Colonel Paxon and Mr ( Adair in their attack on the bulletins and the propaganda A the movement I I am thoroughly in accord with tne views of Mr. Adair and Colonel j Paxon," Mr. Murphy said. "Some of the bulletins that have been published have been disgraceful. They have one incalculable harm to the city by j creating false impressions in toe minds of people all over the country l that Atlanta is reeking with wicked ness and vice, and they have been ! harmful to the Immature minds of the boys and girls who read them , Something should be done at once to j « urb the activities of the movement, j to prevent the publication of the bul letins and to induce the Men and Re gion Forward Movement to confine - operations to the promulgation of t e ideas on which the movement was originally bated " A statement was issued to-day by Forrest Adair, in which he vigorou*- indorsed Colonel Paxon’.? criticism .»f the "bulletins." and declared that the vice crusade and the closing of the restricted district had had no g >d effect, but had merely scattered :hc evil it sought to exterminste all o\er town into the residence and business sections of the city. Mr. Adair asserted that places the police should know of can now be found on Whitehall. Pryor and other prominent South Side streets; and even to a greater extent on the North Side. He declares that the notoriety of the "vice war" has very nearly ruined a good-natured" Chief, who,, while not the best Atlanta has ha 1 was doing fairly wall." Mr Adair expresses the opinion that if the matter were put to a vol* an overwhelming majority of the citi zens of Atlanta would say that it : s time to cal! a halt Business Men Back Paxon. The controversy started by Colonel Paxon’s comprehensive statement *A the attitude of a large number of wetl- known business men as printed ex clusively in Sunday's American has aroused the keenest interest all over the city. It is known that other lead ing men are preparing to back him but the nentlment he standi for is not unanimous by any means. Wilmer Moore, president of the Cham be r of Commerce declares the Men and Religion Bulletins have ac complished much good and believes the attacks on them are a. mtetak**. He said the movement deserved en couragement. but expressed th* hone that no attempt would be made to force a prohibition campaign Mr. Adair, in supporting Mr Paxon, said: I thoroughly arree with Mr. Paxon in his views with reference to the bulletins of the Men and Religion Forward Movement, as fir as he toes but I don't think he goes far ♦ nough. In my opinion, not only the recent ones have been Inclined to ward an evil Influence but from the very’ beginning they have been harmful. Denounce* "Bulletin*. "I agree with Mr Paxon that there was absolutely no excuse for pub lishing the fact that the death of the late matron of the Martha’s Horn* was caused by a disease contracted ♦ram one of the inmates and I fur thermore think that one of their first bulletins was an unwarranted libel upon every woman who has ever been <ent to a hospital for an operation This bulletin stated that a very large proportion—if I remember correctly, it was seven out of ten—of the oper- | a tions • performed by surgeons on women were the fault of the hus- goes w ithout sa> ing that Oolonel Paxon’s statement in yesterday* American will have no bearing or ef fect on our future plans, and we will not abandon our campaign of bulle tins merely on account of personal differences of opinion regarding theit effect." The regular w eekiy meeting of the executive committee of the move ment will be held Monday afternoon but Mr Jackson refused to s?m:e whether there was any likelihood • f official action being taken as a result of Mr. Paxon's criticism The matter probably will be men- loned." he said. It is generally understood that many members of the executive com mittee favor the preparation and pub lication of a reply to Colonel Paxon's attack, and it also has been inti mated that some sort of official ac tion will be taken at the meeting to- ’ay Mr. Jackson s reticence regard ing the probable steps the committee will take appears to bear out the lat er rumor. * But'nes* Men L'kaly to Act. Interest in the fight started bv olonel Paxon centers now in the probable action that may result from the informal conferences of business men that have bean held for the past several weeks, when the advisability of denouncing the bulletins was dis cussed b> some of the most promt - BUSINESS NOTICE. i ent men in the city, group of business men w action Is regarded as an lute certainty.

"By the way, this influence and the unexpected notoriety given him. has come very pear ruining our good- natured Chief, who, while not the best Atlanta has had. was doing fairly well. "The entire department now seem* to be crystallized ground a so-called ‘vice squad.’ while footpads ply their trade unmolested, and a barefoot bur glar, who for four years has terror ized residential sections of the city, feels perfectly secure in his midnight operations "Until Mr Paxnn spoke, none of the conservative citizens have lifted their voices in protest, and therefore some may have gained the impression that public opinion has been backing up this crusade. In my opinion, if it were put to a vote an overwhelming majoriti of the citizens of Atlanta would say that it is time to call a halt Public i* Disgusted. He Say*. "These bulletins and other sensa tional notices in the new ^papers have hurt our town Every time a man is caught with a woman it is termed -» case of white slavery.’ until the pub lic is disgusted "I know that all of this agitation has hurt Atlanta It creates the im pression upon outsiders that we are worse than we are. and makes them hesitate about bringing their families to Atlanta to live; and I. for one, will welcome the dav when we return to a condition of sanity, and I think Mr Paxon will have done the city of At lanta a great service by his courage in calling attention to conditions which the vast majority of the public knon^are true " More Support Paxon. Among other business men who came to the support of Colonel Paxon was L. J. Daniel of Daniel Brothers, and Charles Winship, of the Conti nental Gin Company. Both declared Mr Paxon right in every word in his interview as print ed in Hearst’s Sunday American. Mr. Daniel declared that the bulle tins had been of decided detriment to Atlanta and have hurt business badly Mr. Winship said he agreed that the bulletins were read by some young people, and in that way did decided harm Mell R Wilkinson, who becomes president of the Chamber of Com merce with the new year, was cau tious in his comment, but declared against any prohibition agitation. Ministers of the city lined up be hind the Men and Religion commit tee Dr C W Daniels said he thought the protest was brought about because the liquor question had been touched on He declared that ihe bulletins had done no evil, but had only revealed conditions as they •were. Dr Hugh K Walker, of the First Presbyterian Church, declared that in the main the bulletins had done a great amount of good Chief Surprised at Adair. • "If Mr. Adair knows of the exist ence of these houses he says are nu merous on downtown streets and In the residence sections." said f’hief Reavers. "1 challenge him to give the street addresses and the proof of their existence. I shall take immediate ac. tion against any immoral house of which I am told by Mr Adair "I am surprised at the attitude of Mr Adair in this matter, because when I issued the order closing the houses in the restricted district—tit the time of the vice crusade I served Mr Adair with a notice to cease renting houses for immoral purposes It was the same sort of notice 1 served others, including the women who ran the places. I do not remem ber how many of th -e houses Mr Adair rented, but there were several ©f them "Mr. Adair replied in a letter that he would be glad to comply with my request, and that he would aid me in the crusade in any w av he could He said he would be glad to tell me of any immoral houses of which h*t learned If Mr. Adair knows of anv immoral houses in the city at this time he has not kept his word, or h a would have notified me so 1 could have proceeded against them. Will Continue Hi* Policy. “Mr Adair says in his statement that I have been ruined. If I have I have been ruined because I enforced the law and did my duty.

We take action against every place against which we can get proof that It is an immoral house, raiding them and prosecuting the people who run them "1 am trying lutj and rid the city of vice, and I will submit to no set of people who try to keep me fmm enforcing the law I called Mr. Adair over the telephone as soon as I read his statement in The Georft*^ | and asked him what he meant by his assertions He refused to tell me, "Mr Adair is mistaken also In his statement that footpads and burglars roam the dtv unmolested by the po- | lice. There have been less burglaries during the present winter than there have ever been, and mor burglar# and criminals of that class have been cap tured than ever before during a cor responding period This can be proved bv the records."

Dec _9.— Frederieo Velasquez, former Minister of Finance and candidate for Presi dent in the recent election, was ar rested to-day upon a political charge MRS J E CARWILE. Baroness Sole Heir By Cardinal's Will Made 24 Years A^o Special Cable to The Atlanta Georgian. ROME, Dec. 29—Hope of finding the latest will of Cardinal Rampolla has virtually been given up. and to day a testament made and signed by the Cardinal 24 years ago was pub licly re-aj In the presence of the late Prelate’s sister. Baroness Perana, and her husband. This will named Baroness Perana the sole heir, with the exception of a few unimportant legacies The police are still trying to solve the mystery of the missing docu ment. and detectives are making a thorough search of quarters where it is believed that the testament may have been secreted. The authorities hold the theory' that the will has not been destroyed, but has been hidden. On account of opposition from the family of the dead Prelate and from Pope Plus X. i^ is probable that the exhumation of the body will be defi nitely abandoned MRS. E. H. LAWLER Continued From Page 1. she is in a strategic position right now. "The opening of the Panama Canal will be a direct benefit to Atlanta. The canal will boom the Southern ports, and they in turn will contrib ute to Atlanta's prosperity.” Warn* of Sex Teaching. Dr Edmund B. Wilson, of Colum bia University, president of the as sociation, issued a note of warning Monday to those who are advocating the wholesale and indiscriminate teaching of sex hygiene to children of all ages in the public schools. Dr. Wilson maEe it plain that he j favored the teaching of sex hygiene j iff the higher insiiutions of learning I by competent and tactful instructors. but that he was a bit fearful that the I rage for the teaching of sex topics might carry the idea to a dangerous point in the teaching of the younger folk. "It is the parents of America who should be the instructors in matters of this sort," said Dr. Wilson. "Chil dren should have their first know - edge on these subjects from their fa thers and mothers. If they are in structed tactfully and sympathetical ly, they will develop with normal and clean ideas. Children Must be Taught. "But we are confronted with the situation of thousands of children of the slums in our big cities never hav ing any such instruction. Their thoughts and ideas they pick up on j the streets. They must be taught. It j is a grave question as to when the instruction should begin. I believe j that every teacher in the public I schools should be informed on these subjects, but I doubt if the subject should be approached directly until the colleges and normal schools are reached. "It is a most delicate question. Scientists generally are agreed that there should be some form of sex •hygiene teaching, but they are feeling their way carefully You will not find many of the scientists who are advocating a radical movement right at once. They are content to let the matter develop naturally. It is the I general opinion at this stage of the agitation that more harm than good may be done by classes in sex hy giene among pupils of immature and undeveloped minds." Dr. Wilson was of the opinion that the meeting of the scientists in At lanta would provide a great stimulus * to scientific activity throughout the 1 South. To Tell of Stars.

Record Scarcity of Police Court Cases It may be due to the strained con dition of Atlanta’s pocketbook so soon after the holidays, or it ma\ be due to the remnant of Christmas spirit that fills the civic heart—but there were only 39 cases docketed at police head quarters Monday for both sessions of Recorder * Court It is the smallest number in the his tory of the court, and has occasioned considerable comment among police and court officials. Usually on Mon day the case* number all the way from 150 to 250. A triple romance successfully cli maxed with three weddings had the firemen at engine house No. 4 ail astir Monday, where the echo of the wedding bells made the ordinary rou tine of the day* seem dull in the ex treme. The brides and bridegrooms are: Ladderman Edward Carwile and Miss Violet Lawler, of No. 3 63 Geor gia avenue. Driver Claude Rowe and Miss Schuyler Moore a forelady for the McCall Pattern Company. E. H. Lawler, a brother of Miss Lawler—who get# in on this fire ro mance story only on account of that relationship—and Miss Willie Maie Hornsby, of No. 200 Wellington street. The weddings were all pleasantly mingled with the atmosphere of Christmas. Across two. however, there lies the shadow of death, for the mother of Mias Lawler and her brother died the day after Christmas. The morning before the holiday Miss La w ler had become the bride ’of Car wile and in the afternoon the Lawier- Hornsby nuptials were performed at the bedside of Miss Lawler’s mother The Rev. J. S V. Saul, who wed the two couples, officiated at the fu neral services r the mo;her the next day. and in the house where, with**! the span of a day. there Were glad ness and sorrow the four newlyweds are now making their home. Secrecy surrounded the Rom-- Moore wedding, which followed an acquaintanceship of but six wrftks. The day before Christmas Rowe tele phoned the young w man that he had a surprise for her. and whe© she met him he calmly announced that they were to be married Miss Moore ca pitulated. and the R- v. Henry Face performed the ceremony.

Mrs. Wilson's Baking Motto is: 'To have complete success with no failures, care should be used in selection of Baking Powder. CALUMET BAKING POWDER Some little time ago I made a careful study and investigation of the baking powder subject and I feel fully repaid.

A chill drizzle fell all morning, and, according to Federal Forecaster Von Herrmann, was in town to stay for the night at any rate. Monday night was expected to be rainy and colder, and Tuesday cloudy and colder still. The same condi tions exist all over the State. G O A kl H Dally Mattnee 2:30 K A Ti U Evening at .
