Official reports say that 5,500 real barking dogs wer > transformed into Germany's "hot dog" supply last year. That only counts the ones that passed 1 the slaughter houses, not those that 1 were home-butchered. The same reports say that 149,000 1 horses went the same way into "hot- ; Ilogs" against only about 6.000 a year 1 before the war. In pre-war days, then: 1 is no official record of any dog reach- 1 ing (ho sausage grill. German writers say that this consumption of horse and dog meat in < Germany allows that Germany's prosperity cannot be judged by the food 1 served in the hotels, but that Germany I is so poor that tlie poof canobt get any ; mqat save dog and horse meat. 1 INDIANS THREATEN TO ] MAKE WAR FOR POSSESSION | OF OLD HUNTING GROUND t ■— i Seacliff?

NEW RELIGION IS ENIHENCNEO Storm of Factional Strife Among Baptists Apparently Dispelled Indianapolis, June 16 —(Special to Daily Democrat) —Twentieth century religion seemed firmly entrenched in the northern Baptist convention here today. A storm of fractional strife which threatened to divide the church north ~f the Mason Dixon line ap parently had passed over and a spirit of coneilliation prevailed. Ultra conservatives who refuse to accept modern ideas of religious education and social work by the church were blending with the liberal group for control ot the convention. It was whispered among the liberals that “the hard shells" were brok en and that it meant the passing of ancient ideas regarding interpretation of the Bible fiom all Protestant faiths. Conservative leaders took a different view of the situation. “The financial crisis was so intense that every one is avoiding issues that are unnecessary,” said Dr. J. C. Massce, of Boston, standard bearer in the fundamentalist crusade for old time religion. “A 17,000,000 debt must be met and that is a pretty hard matter when you depend only on voluntary con tri buttons.” Dr. Massee refused to concede defeat thus far in any of the con ven tion maneuveres but he admitted the fundamentalists were in the minority and did not act concertedly. Election of a president to succeed Helen Barrett Montgomery of Rochester, N. Y., will come possibly tomorrow or Monday. Judge F. W. Freeman of Denver, Colo., was mentioned as the “organ ization” candidate Tor president of the convention along with Dr. Frederick E. Taylor of Indianapolis. It was said Dr. Frank M. Good■hild of New York would be the undamentalist candidate.
