ATLANTA, Ga.—lt appears that Dr. R. J. Bi*ham haa been misquoted In re gard to what he really said concerning the attitude of the people of Atlanta. The error was due to IVO use of the pro noun “I” when It should have been "he" Following his conference with Bishop Hendrix, Dr. Blgham was quoted as hav ing used the following language: “I said that there was such an uprising in Atlanta both among preachers and lay men as would make it Impossible for mp to do the work of the district to the host advantage." It now appears that the word “he" should have been sub stltuted for "I" In the foregoing sen tence. The correction of the error, of course, mdkps Bishop Hendrix the speak er In regard to the attitude of the At lanta people instead of Dr. Bigham. Cheney's Expectorant cuts coughs and colds short.
