CLOSE MISSION FRIDAY NIGHT Large Crowd Attends Closing Session Os Preaching Mission A large crowd from Adams,: Wells and Allen counties attended the closing session of the preach-1 ' ing mission, sponsored by the Ad ; iams county ministerial association at the United Brethren church here Friday. Morning, afternoon and evening services were lield at the church as ‘a prelude to a campaign for | i Christianity to be begun in the, county Brotestant churches The, address Friday night was delivered by the Rev. E. Burns Mar tin, D.D.. pastor of the Wayne Street M. E. church in Fort Wayne, who spoke on the "Foolishness of i ' Preaching." He took his text from the first chapter of Corinthians. He deliv- ! ered an exposition upon the fourth i chapter of the book of Revelations, i quoting. “I beheld the book and i there was no man to open it and | I wept." He closed by stating that the lamb which was slain from the foundation of the world, represent jed Christ, symbolic of sacrificial | love, which he said is the strong est redeeming power in the world. Preceding, the sermon, devotions • were led by Charles D. Teeple. I The offering was taken up by (’. E Bell. During the services Paul Saurer sang an solo and special ; music was presented by the choir 'of the U. B. church. The Rev. i Homer J. Aspy led the congregational singing. The Rev. C. M. Prugh presided. Speaking on "Evangelism For Our Day," the Rev. G. W. Allison, j pastor of the First Presbyterian church of Fort Wayne, delivered the address at the afternoon session. Rev. Allison divided the responsibility for evangelism between jthe minister and the laymen. He gave a charge to the ministers admonishing them not to forget Jthe necessity for evangelism in the church. The full responsibility for ' J evangelism is not in the minister j alone but partially in the congregation, he held. He said that many people go through life without speaking to a single person in regards to his relation with God. He discussed the methods of evngelism in the world today, stating that it had changed from the I old type of revivals. He said that the most important type is person al evangelism. The Rev. George 0. Walton presided over these services and songs were Jed by Rev. Aspy. Follow- . ing the address a discussion was , held on the subject of evangelism. o Knights Os Columbus Plan Dance Tuesday Members of the Knights of Co- ' lumbus will hold a dance at the lodge hall Tuesday night at 8:30 o’clock.

STRIKE PICKET ! IS KILLED IN MARITIME RIOT Pacific Coast Strike Is| Paralyzing Western Industry Sun Francisco, Nov. 7. —(U.R>—A strike picket died today as a re- i suit of the first serious outbreak of violence reported in the Pacific | coast maritime strike, which is damping a paralyzing grip around; western industry. Elner Koppen, a Norwegian sea-| I man who had been doing picket! | duty on the Embarcadero, San i Francisco’s docks, died from in- , Juries received in a street tight .and police arrested William Bonillas and charged him with murder. Attaches at the hospital where Koppen died reported the death was caused by skull fracture. A; group of pickets had taken Kop-1 pen to the hospital after finding him on the street near the water front, unconscious. The street fight and death broke a week of calm. Police began an investigation to , determine whether the alleged fight was caused by strike issues. | Koppen had been on duty at the docks until 6 p. m. yesterday. He was found in the street shortly af-' Iter midnight. The strike, in which thousands of other seamen are involved, spread into other industries and i fear increased that more violence i was in store. Four biscuit and cracker factor- , ies in Seattle failed to open and leaders of the shipbuilders union j announced 6.000 men would go on strike at the Bethlehem ship building corporation plant here. Retail grocers food supplies, were reported diminishing fast. 1 I adding a menacing element to the (CONTINUED ON PAOE THREE) ANNUAL MEET NEXT MONDAY Adams County Sunday School Convention At Berne Next Monday The annual Adams county Sunday school convention will be held at the Cross Reformed church in Berne, Monday.

LIQUOR BOARD HOLDS HEARING Five Applications Are Heard By Local Board Friday Afternoon Five liquor applications were heard Friday afternoon by the Ad--5 ams county alcoholic beverage board, meeting in the county com- | inlssioner's room of the court ! house. Three of the petitions were for the renewal of existing beer teI tailers' licenses. Two were tor restaurant “three-way’’ licenses, which , would permit the sale of beer, wine and liquor by the drink. No objections were filed against the granting of the licenses. The data collected will be referred to the state alcoholic beverages board for final consideration. The three petitions for beer re- . tailers' renewals were filed by August A. Heiman, Lose Brothers and Herman Myers, all Decatur restaur ant proprietors. Fred Fullenkamp. proprietor of the Stag Restaurant, and Albert Aeschlman. proprietor of the Colonial restaurant, both of Decatur, asked that their beer retailers' licenses be replaced with the three way licenses. Should these two be granted. 1 they would be the first public restaurants in the city to obtain licenses to sell liquor by the drink. At tfie present Decatur and Bluffton , are the only two cities of this size ' which do not have such concerns in operation. Four local clubs and fraternal organizations are now permitted ' to sell liquor by the drink. The new applications contain a i pledge not to maintain slot machines on the premises. Slot machin■es include marble machines which i “spit” or drop coins or slugs into a pan at the base of the machine , when winning combinations are obtained. — o Four Children Are Burned To Death Dallas.

URGES AID TO NEEDY President Aids In Mobilization For Human Needs Drive Washington, Nov. 7.—Calling upon the nation to share its “increas- ■ lug prosperity” through contributions to community chests. President Roosevelt said last night that I “millions of families and individuals will need all the help their i local welfare agencies can give them." ! 1 At the same time, the President in a national broadcast on behalf of the mobilization for human needs, said "there is a firm, well i founded public conviction that the I recent desperate winters of human need are, if we hold steadfastly to our course, never to recur.” . Lauding community chests as i“the service of supply to the forces of our local welfare agencies," the j President said that despite the ' government’s relief efforts there j “remain very many other human needs” that are the responsibility of the chests. ' “This is a partnership—this dis- • tributlon of responsibility accord--1 ing to the character of the prob- ■ lem," he said. "Through the suc- ■ cessful operation of this partner- ■ ship our nation will meet its j needs.”

PAYROLLS ARE GIVEN BOOST OF MILLIONS 10 Per Cent Gain In Steel Wages, More Dividends Swell Income New York, Nov. 7 Millions of dollars were added to potential Christmas spending money today, by u boost in steel wages, mounting dividends and other indicators I of fatter pocketbooks. I Cheering announcements tumbl-' , ed from the .business news hopper, ' supplementing the heavy post-! : election budget. Security markets cooled off after giving vent to a burst of bullish enthusiasm the last two days. But visions in business quarters of the freest Christmas spending since 1930 or 1929 were sharpened by the arrival of the heralded steel wage raise, additions to the long i list of companies increasing pay. ments to shareholders and an upward commodity price trend. Looking over the. dividend calendar, the trends of business and corporate earnings. Wall street analysts were confident many more millions would be added to the flow of Christmas money. Some reminded, as a dampening touch to Christmas cheer. thaX Uncle Sam would have his hand out to collect his share in taxes of the extra payments forced in part by the 'Federal levy upon undivided earnings. Trade quarters were encouraged to see purchasing power expanding at both ends ot’ the income scale, at least in the key steel industry. Lower-paid workers among the industry's 526.000 employes stood to benefit mainly from an average boost of about 10 per cent in basic ’wage rates, effective Nov. 16. How much would be added to steel workers’ pay envelopes was difficult to calculate. It was figured roughly that upward of *50,000.000 annually might . Is- added, assuming general adoption of the higher pay scale aji- ! nounced by important subsidiaries of the United States Steel Corporation. Bethlehem and Inland. The American Iron and Steel Institute reported pay rolls of the industry had increased to *65,611,0tt0 in September compared with *45,893.000 in the same month last year. The total for the first nine months was *540,779.000 compared with *557,794,000 for all 1935. Os particular interest to students ot industrial relations was the agreement between United . States Steel management and workers for a further 5 per cent increase in wages if the cost of living increases more than 10 per cent, the basis for the higher wage negotiations. -— o — Candidates Must File Expenses By Dec. 3 December 3 is the final day on . which candidates in the general 'election held last Tuesday, may tile their expense accounts with the county derk.

Thousands Os Women And Children Endangered As They Flee Capital Os Spain Today. REBELS IN CITY (Copyright 1936 by UP.) Lisbon, Nov. 7.- (U.PJ — News flashed from Madrid today in diplomatic and unofficial disputches, I that the nationalists had entered Madrid and the cabinet had fled |by airplane to Valencia. A war committee was left be. hind, the dispatches said, to defend the city and. if the rebels could not be stopped, to fight i* rear guard action that would delay them as long as possible. A" column of Moors entered tho city proper, it was asserted, almost unopposed, moving first along the bank of the Manzanares river from Carabanchel barracks in the suburbs, and crossing the Toledo bridge at the southern side of tho city. They moved in, it was said, under cover of a terrific artillery bombardment in the open fields just outside the city. A later dispatch indicated that the Moors had been routed for the moment at least. Massed nationalist tanks were ready to follow them across the Toledo bridge, it was said, but skilled loyalist engineers arrived and were ready to blow up the bridge. The tanks halted, it was said. A separate nationalist column advanced to the Manzanares river in the suburbs and was stopped there at the Toledo bridgehead, by strong nests of machine guns which raked them as they advanced through, the Los Mataderos section on their own side of the river. Shells were exploding in the vicinity of the Mediodia railroad station at the southern end of the city and the nearby Valencia road. Simultaneously Geu. Francisco Franco, the nationalist dictator and generalissimo, was reported to have ordered forward from tho Colmenares section and across thu Segovia bridge at the city’s west side a strong force of veteran civil guards whose duty it was to rout out any defending militiamen and take over the policing of the city. Thousands of women and children, fleeing the city to the east, were reported in danger by the the nationalist artillery fire directed on the Valencia road area. Loyalist forces were reported making their last stand in the camp De Retamares. at Campamento at the southwestern edge ot the city and other points —apparently fighting in individual groups, not as an organized force. Franco, the nationalist commander. was reported to have thrown four divisions, totalling 50,000 men, into action in six columns, each with an objective in the city. All the columns not already under way were ready to move instantly, it was said. Nationalist airplanes in groups of six were reported flying over the city, bombing the last strong, holds. Foreigners took refuge in their embassies and legations. The leftist government was expected to set up an emergency regime at Valencia, and perhaps later at Barcelona, and there continue to carry on its resistance. It will maintain that it is still the legally constituted governinenl, as elected by the people, and that the nationalists continue to be only rebels. But it was indicated that as soon as the nationalists captured the city and made it wholly theirs, the German, Italian, Portuguese and ! Brazilian governments, if not others, would recognize them as Spain's “legal” rulers — perhaps first as a de factor government, or government in fact, and later as the fully constituted government. Battle dispatches included an official communique from Avila, the nationalist general headquarters, asserting that an attack was started from the Somosierra sector directly north of Madrid in the mountains. It was believed likely that this attack was timed so that the moun- . tain forces would move slowly down on the city to join the nati ionalists at the city’s gates. I' A second attack was begun on . E) Escorial, northwest of Madrid. Dispatches from the Madrid front . said that the first nationalists to enter the city proper found houses flying white flags in token of subJ mission. Some people hung bed sheets from their windows I Nationalist cavalry cut across • (CUNTINUJ2D ON PAGE IKKEsT
