MINISTER SAYS LINCOLN WAS RADICALS’FOE His Message Urging Respect of Law and Order Quoted by Dr. Williams. MAKE BIRTHDAY PLANS If Abraham Lincoln lived today he, would actively combat bolshevism and every other belief or society which seeks to break down the respect of the majority of American people for law and order, according to an opinion expressed todny by Rev. Edgar L. Williams, executive secretary of the Church Federation of Indiana. The martyTed president, whose birthday anniversary is OJXFeb. 12, delivered a great message against bolshevism. Mr. Williams said today. This message might well be read in every pulpit In Indiana next Sunday, beginning the observance of Lincoln anniversary weelr, Rev. Williams says In a message addressed to church-going people of Indiana. FIND* LINCOLN’S WORDS IN CHURCH. A few months ago, while making a trip in northern Indiana, Rev. Williams found a chart hanging on the wall ot one of the large churches which contained a statement of Lincoln’s “Pollti cal Religion.” Wore his words followed now there would be no bolshevism and no reds, Rev. Williams believes. The message follows: “Let reverence for the laws be breathed by every American mother to the lisping babe that prattles on her lap; let It be taught in schools, in seminaries and in colleges; let It be written In primers, spelling books and almanacs; let it be preached in the pulpit, proclaimed In legislative balls and enforced in courts of justice. And, in short, let it become the political religion of the nation; and let the old and the young, the rich and the poor, the grave and the gay of all sexes, and tongues, and colors, and conditions, sacrifice unceasingly upon its altars.” Abraham Lincoln followed this “political religion" of his unceasingly, Rev. Williams says. MENTIONS GOSPEL IN HIS TALK. ’’“Along with the gospel let there be reverence for law, without which the gospel has no foundation for an appeal,” says Rev. Williams. “Conviction of sin by the law must precede conversion from sin by the gospel. There is no regeneration of society or of the individual without both the law and the gospel. Lincoln is right in laying the foundation in childhood’s home, school and church.” Rev. Williams suggests that personal reminiscences of Lincoln’s life' should be often retold as giving added influence to the words of wisdom which he has left as a legacy. “Let the message of Lincoln, at this season of the year, for greater reverence of law, be passed along from every pulpit In Indiana nnd echoed also In every Sunday school,” said Rev. Williams. Shooting' Affray to Be Probed Tile grand jury today was preparing to investigate the circumstanres surrounding the shooting of Walter Frans bv Adolphus Brown, both colored, at 705 Fayette street. Brown was bound over to the grand jury late yesterday h.v City Judge Walter Pritchard on a SIOO bond. Brown claimed that he shot when he found Evans with Mrs. Brown.

What’s This? Woman Pays Fine as Drunk Judge Pritchard rubbed his eyes—had the old days come back? A woman who said she was Grace Gray of Shannondale, lud., was befcre him on a charge of drunkeness, the first woman to be charged with the offense for a long time. Police said she had a halfpint of corn whisky and a half-pint of hair tonic. She was fined $1 and costs. 27 Miles Hour in City Too Fast; $1 and Costs Twenty-seven miles an hour is too much speed on city streets, in Judge Pritchard’s opinion.

FARE HERE LOW, JAMESON SAYS Claims Indianapolis Pays Less for Cars Than Others. Indianapolis has one of the lowest street car fare rates in the United States, Dr. Henry Jameson, chairman of the board of directors of the Indianapolis Street Railway Company, said today. Fifty-three cities now have 10-cent fares as a result of 1919 Increases granted them. Six-cent fares were granted in 182 cities and 7-cent fares in 116 cities, he said. “It would seem that at the present time the credit of the street and electric railways Is on the vergs off non-existence, and that no restoration can be accomplished upon any such basis of relationship between the public and the utilities as has existed in the past,” said Dr. Jameson. “It is time for the public ai.d the operating companies to get together in the interest of good service and fair rates.” Seeks SIO,OOO for Death of Husband Judgment of SIO,OOO has been asked in the superior court, room No. 3, by Mrs. Grace A. Schaefer, widow of Augustus H. Schaefer, formerly a captain of the Indianapolis fire department, against the Indianapolis Street Railway Company. Mrs. Schaefer alleges that her hus. band was killed Nov. 16, last, when a street car collided with a fire truck at Kenwood avenue and Thirty-fourth street. She places the responsibility of the fatal crash upon the street car company.

YOU KNOW ME Sure, That's Why They’re All Kickin’ . LARCHMONT MANOR, N. Y., Feb. 6. —You'IJ have to admit that it’s an unusual thing to hear of citizens berating a traction company for installing new equipment. Os course, it's considered quite the thing to berate the traction company, but it's very seldom that a storm of protest -it aroused over a matter like this. But there’s a reason. Twenty years ago, Larchmont Manor became disatistied with the horse cars, which "met all the trains,” and the company, yielding to public opinion more or less grace-
