CHURCH HOLDS MEN BY CIVIC AFFAIRS WORK • ‘Hustling Hundreds’ ’ Chief Outlines Plan to Christian Ministers. Active participation in civic affairs attracts and holds men to the work of churchmen’s organizations, William T. Quillen of Indianapolis, State member and'president of the “Hustling Hundred” of Englewood Christian Church, told 2,000 Christian ministers and laymen at Cadle Tabernacle today. Addressing the North American Christian convention on “Mobilizing the Man Power of the Church,” Quillen told how “many who joined the organization to work for a street improvement remained to work also for the Lord,” and how the plan might profitably be adopted by Christian churches throughout the country. The “Husting Hundred” has engaged actively in civic affairs here, its most recent action commanding widespread attention being its sharp reply to Attorney General Arthur L. Gilliom’s intimation that it was dominated by. former Klansmen. Quillen praised women’s devotedness to work of the church and said “the great majority of men consider church work beneath the dignity of their efforts.” Quillen then related the organization of the Englewood men’s organization, religious-civic in nature, and defended the right of the men of the church to concern themselves as an organization with civic or political matters. Through its “flying squadron” the “Hustling Hundred” has assisted in organizing some twenty-five similar organizations throughout the county, Quillen said. After three parallel conferences this morning, the convention opened at 9, the Rev. W. R. Walker of Columbus, Ohio, presiding: The Rev. Hugh Wayt of Mt. Vernon, Ohio, in the morning devotions, pleaded for a “revival of the American home, renewing of patriotism, renewed respect for parental authority, and mare stress on religious education in the home.” T. Sanford Williams of Waynesburg Pa., presented the convention a gavel made from a tree in the churchyard of the old Brush Run Christian Church, in western Pennsylvania. _ Thirty-five hundred persons attended the opening services Wednesday night when the Rev. Wallace Tharp of Tuscaloosa, Ala., delivered a powerful sermon on “The Deity of Jesus.”

McNay, former Klan titan, named chief sign inspector in the building department, Oct. 6, today announced he would not accept the post. _ McNay was named city garage superintendent and three days later shifted to the building department post in a general city hall shake-up. The sign job pays $2,500, while the garage post salary is 43,000. “I was glad to accept the position as garage superintendent, because I had confidence in my experience and ability to fill that position with credit to myself, the administration, and with service to the public, having •'followed the garage and automobile business for a long period of years,” wrote McNay to the board of safety. “With respect to sign inspecting, however, I am forced to decline the appointment of your honorable board, because I believe that public officials still should be chosen in accordance with their ability to fill the position. “Never having had any experience in inspecting signs, and I am not a registered engineer, I therefore feel that I could not be of any service to the public or to the administration in such capacity.” COLLECTOR RECOVERING Vivian Verne Taggart, 26, bill collector for a furniture store, of 1801 % Montcalm St., was reported improved today at the Indiana Christian Hospital.
