CO-OPERATION OF ALL FAITHS SPUR CHURCH Intensive Evangelistic Campaigns Outlined for Year. fContfmwd From Page One) Into church life of the city. All leaders admit that. The personality of the minister his understanding of the significance of this marching cavalcade, his acceptance of the new deal in national government, the great meaning of the overthrow of child labor, a program for curing poverty and nonemployment—all of these have played and are playing a great part on this “cure" of worried people whether spiritually, physically or economically. Momentum to Increase Os course, some times the factor that the preacher “is not liked'' by his congregation—that Dr. Evans admits, but he contends that average conditions will measure up" in the various church districts of the Protestant church. The church has had a program Calls for co-operation signed bv national leaders in the Protestant. Catholic and Jewish rhurches is in the hands of Dr. Evans for im mediate action Tl.e cavalcade will Increase Its strength as people become happier after the illness wears off So anew program, a greater cooperation between all faiths, will cement into perfection the newreligious and social deal. "Is the Protestant church membership growing?” I asked Dr. Evans. "Five to 7 per cent yearly,” he told me. Common Sense Foundation To meet this increased interest Dr. Evans has called upon pastors of the association to conduct Intensive evangelistic campaigns this years, “bearing in mind the particular needs of their communities.” The church federation has divided the city into sixteen districts. Programs have been arranged for mass activities of these churches regardless of what creed. Methodist, Presbyterian, Disciples of Christ. Baptist and all the others are marching together for the greatest community benefit. These programs are concerned with wages, poverty, charity and the lik in every community. Dr. Evans struck an essential kevnote of the entire proposition when he told me that “as a whole you will find church life controlled with a whole lot of common sense." Deeper Note Is Heard The understanding of this common sense and "deeper note" in church activities is voiced by Dr. John O. Benson, a Methodist pastor in Terre Haute. New York, Detroit and other cities for thirty-three years and at present superintendent of tlie Methodist hospital in Indianapolis. On Sunday Dr Benson is preaching from a Presbyterian church in this city, and he has preached in churches of about every denomination m the rity. He told me that he has noticed Increased interest and attendance in all denominations although admitting that there “are too many churches, we have an increase attendance in all Methodist churches." He pointed out the very large gains in the new North M. E. church on North Meridian street. Dr. Benson has found that people are interested in the sermons of the pastor when he has something definite to say, anew joy to give, a sound social problem to discuss and the pointing out of "the possibilities of human life.’ ’ Challenge in Program Ministers have learned the lesson of not trying to paint the bad things of life in too attractive form. Dr. Benson told me that he learned that lesson years ago and made a resolution. That resolution and his great knowledge of the social trend has caused him to recognize that the dominating thing in church attendance todav is "the service note.” He contends that youth today is looking for a “challenging program of service more than to preaching or anvthing else." Social work is offering a great adventure today. He sees that it Isn't so much the "life to come." but the emphasis is the life that is." Youth Being Attracted It is this challenging program of putting the Kingdom of God so it may become a foundation for our city that is attracting youth in greater numbers than ever into Indianapolis churches. Dr. Benson and other great leaders see that. "I am convinced that it is this challenge of the personality of the church, the challenge of its program of service all on a spiritualized social basis which is attracting young people we haven’t had before.’’ And the cavalcade takes on new regiments of young people. Then the new attitude. What is it? "The church used to say 'thou shalt.” Dr. Benson told me. "That's passe. The church now savs vou CAN.” Ready for ’New Deal' Also. Dr. Benson contends ‘the minister is anew social prophet." The church has not been asleep It wu ready for the new day of greater church importance based upon a program of service and of challenge. All denominations have been ready for the “new deal" in religions life. But the church is holding fast to certain big things which will never change. xt—The Indianapolis Religious Melting Pot.

But today more than 3.000 Indianapolis maids were affected by an utimatum of a $3 weekly wage with board following a meeting of the representatives of eight labor employment agencies with T. M Overlay of the Better Business Bureau. Mrs. Hazel Ham, spokeswoman for the group, said that the agencies had signed agreements not to allow any girl to work for less than the S3 stipend and a good bed. three squares and decent treatment. Complaints Are Received “Most of the girls who come to us do not object to such a compensation —$3—if they are well treated,” said Mrs. Ham. "They know that times are bad and many people can't afford any more" “But many housewives have called us in the last few years, demanding girls who were willing to work for SI a week. That is ridiculous. “We have had complaints from girls who said they are forced to sleep in basements; only got two meals a day or worked as many as fourteen hours a day. Entitled to Benefits. “While the NRA program does not apply to domestics we people in the Agencies feel that they, too, are entitled to some of the benefits of the new deal. “One domestic who came to us said that she started work at 5:30 a. m. one day and worked until midnight. As she was about to retire, exhausted by her work, her mistress made her give her a permanent wave, knowing the girl once had worked in a beauty shop."

Contract Bridge

BY W. E. M'KENNEY Secretary American Bridge Leagua THERE is no question but that you can get awfully bad breaks in the play of a hand. Haven't you often heard a declarer remark at the end of a hand, "I just couldn't get one suit to break?" The next time you hear that remark. ask them to lay the handout on the table again and see if a little thinking wouldn't have produced better results. The following hand was played In a recent tournament, and It was surprising to note that only one player found a way to make three no trump, and he did it because he decided that none of the suits would break—this is the key of the hand. South bid one diamond. West passed, and North responded with one spade, which suited East very well. South went to two no trump, and North took the contract to three no trump. West's opening lead was the queen of hearts which the declarer won with the ace. He then returned the eight of spades, and when West played the jack, the queen was played from dummy, and East won the trick with the king. East now made a very nice return —he came back with the jack of clubs. The declarer, however, refused to win the trick, and East continued with the nine of clubs, which North won with the ace. 000 THE declarer then led a small I diamond from dummy and won in his own hand with the queen. The seven of s;des then was played, and West showed out, discarding the deuce of hearts. The declarer played a small spade from dummy, and East won with the ten. East returned the jack of diamonds. which immediately told the declarer that East had no more clubs or the clubs would have been continued. The declarer now could count every card in the Ehst hand.,

FLAMES LIGHT SKY AS CAR HITS LIGHT POLE Couple Escapes Injury in Crash on Fall Creek Boulevard. Crash! Flashes of fire blazed Into the air Deputy Sheriffs Patrick Kinney and Elmer H. Daily, driving on Fail Creek boulevard, near Thirtieth street, early today, looked with jaws agape. Frantically, they twisted their car around and raced madly for the spot. What they found: Kenneth H Haber, 5924 Forest lane, driving with Miss Esther Riddle, 2809 Ruckle street, had lost control of his car on a curie on the boulevard. It struck a boulevard light, carried it eighty-five feet. Fire flashed from the broken wires at the base of the light pole. The car hurtled on. smashed Into two trees and came to a halt. Haber and Miss Riddle were not injured The car was damaged badly. Fall Creek boulevard needs anew light pole. WOMAN AIDS BANDIT Pinions Victim as Male Companion Robs Greentown Man. Held by a powerful Negro woman, William L. Wyman, 40, of Greentown, was robbed of $65 Friday night by her male companion, Wyman reported to police. Walking on Tippecanoe street to a wrecking company office, Wyman said the woman seized him suddenly. While he struggled in her grip, the Negro man dashed out and rifled his pockets, he said.

West had shown out of spades, therefore that left East with four spades. He has not returned a club, so he must have three diamonds. Declarer allowed the diamond trick to ride to dummy's king, and now saw that he could get a squeeze and an end play on the West hand.

Therefore, he cashed the ace and nine of spades in dummy, discarding from his own hand, first, the four of diamonds, and then, when West let go of the eight of clubs, declarer dropped the seven of clubs. West let go the five of hearts. The eight of diamonds was played from dummy. South winning with the ace, and West —as helpless. If v dropped a heart, the declarti a king and ten of hearts were good, so he had to discard tire ten of clubs. Declarer then led the queen of clubs, throwing West in with the king and forcing him to lead away from his jack-nine of hearts into the declarer's king-ten. By being careful to count the hand down,' rather than to play It carelessly and depend on a diamond break, the declarer made his contract of three no trump. tcwrisht, 194 L Jw SfltA ar Met, laaj

Conservation State May Open Season on Pheasants Next Year

BY WILLIAM F. COLLINS Timet Special Writer FROM the desires of 365,000 men and women in Indiana who buy an annua! hunting and fishing license. I gather they are not so much interested in the sweet bye and bye of their sport as they are in the nasty now and now. Time was in the Hoosier state when quail on toast was the epicurean eye-opener of the melancholy days of fall. Quail on toast, however, is another of those quaint old customs that has traveled its way with bustles and crinolines for the very simple reason that, while not out of style, the piece de resistance is becoming a rare bird. So rare, in fact, that some states are importing them to the tune of $lO a pair for breeding purposes.

Last month a quail dealer from Tennessee was caught “racketeering in quail.” Buying the wild birds from farmer trappers at 50 cents a bird, he had made shipments to the east at a price that netted him a

profit of $35,000. The purpose of the federal game warden service is to stop such practices, and it did. On the plains of Mon golia when Ghengis Kahn pursued his bride to be among the yurts of a neighboring chief, this primitive, and then unknown

CoiUns

lad recounts the wedding feast of deer and pheasant meats. There were no birds called pheasants in the North or South America then. Pheasants traveled with the Mongols on their conquests into Russia and Bohemia. Sportsmen took them into England years later. From there they were brought here as a curiosity. The English ring-neck is a hybrid bird of many generations. 000 IT was discovered slowly that the pheasant supplemented the quail as a game bird and. as in Ohio, completely took the place of the bob white. Again, there Is a sentiment connected with the cheery, fat-breasted quail that makes lovers fight for him, and often he is placed on the song bird list, to the utter disgust of bird hunters and to the detriment of the quail, I think. So, with regard to all of these things and more, Indiana sportsmen in a sane manner made their wishes known to the conservation department. They asked that laws be passed to properly protect quail, not to make the mistake of classifying it as a song bird, a quail being a bird of close range in breeds under a completely closed season to the detriment of the bird. There are arguments about this, but my own observation, covering most of the quail areas in the Mississippi valley, tends to support the belief that well-regulated shooting and conquent scattering of coveys improves the breed. The sportsmen also asked for pheasants. Many local clubs started breedin? and releasing them. The state then took hold and established two breeding farms, one in Brown county and one in Pulaski county. The money used came from game licenses. This year Kenneth M. Kunkel and his game breeders are releasing 15.000 pheasants. 000 Sportsmen afield soon win begin to see them in numbers and we all appeal to you to subdue your instincts to take a shot until they are here in sufficient numbers to declare an open season. The fine is rather heavy anyway; you can buy a lot of steak for S6O. Virgil Simmons, sportsman, and head of the conservation department under the new deal, believes he can open the season on pheasants next year by proper co-oper-ation of every hunter and outdoorsman. It's a noble bird: two of them will feed a family of five in king's style. The food value of this crop runs into the millions in those states where they now are plentiful. You will not regret your decision to plug the gun barrel this fall when you see one rise from the grass and vanish over the hedge row. He will have sixteen children following him next year at no expense to the state. Next—More about pheasants. 36,000000 ENROLLED Number in Sunday Schools Over World Is Estimated.

ACT TO EASE VETERAN CUTS Mercy to Temper Economy Under Review Boards Named by Hines. BY MARSHALL M'NEIL Times Special Writer WASHINGTON, Aug. s.—Economy tempered with mercy and guided by fact will control decisions of the special review boards, the first of which were appointed today by Veterans’ Administrator Frank T. Hines to straighten out the tangle over ex-service men's pensions resulting from the last session of congress. The administration’s first attack on the unbalanced budget was to reduce expenses of caring for vetarans. Realization that too stringent methods had been adopted resulted in a move toward leniency, some more money was appropriated and these special review boards authorized to study borderline cases. The boards appointed today by General Hines were for New York, Illinois and Massachusetts.

ONE mystery story that might give you a few pleasant chills on a hot summer night is “He Arrived at Dusk," by R. C. Ashby (Macmillan; $2). This one has to do with funny business in an old English country house, the funny business being apparently caused by the ghost of a Roman centurion, dead these 1,600 years and more. A young London curio-shop owner gets mixed up in it and tells his friend, the Scotland Yard man; and it's all explained satisfactorily in the end. but not before a bit of blood is spilled and a lot of excitement is stirred up. Taken by and large, it's a satisfactory yarn of the creepy variety. It was inevitable that someone sooner or later would work the century of progress affair into a detective tale. John Ashehurst has done it In “The World's Fair Murderers" • Houghton-Mifflin; $2), telling how a distinguished European scientist gets plugged in full sight of thousands of visitors at the fair, how n mysterious death ray machine i found in a taxi, and how the professor's corpse disappears en route back to Europe. It's all very puzzling if you can keep your mind on it. By this time you've probablv heard about “Obelists at Sea," by C. Daly King 'Knopf; s2>, A capitalist gets murdered on an ocean liner, and Jour assorted psychologists volunteer to lay the finger on the murderer. Successively they pick four innocent people, and in the end an ordinary copper solves it. The story is longish, but entertaining. New mathematical formulae applicable to the design of suspension bridges, and expected to bring about economies, have been announced.

—Dietz on Science — EXPANSION OF UNIVERSE HELD IN UMELIGHT One Astronomer Advances More Cheering Theory That Crash Is Remote. BY DAVID DIET/. Scrtpp'-Howard Science Editor The chief topic of conversation in the astronomical world during the last year has been the expanding universe. According to Eddington and Jeans, the universe is expanding like a gigantic soap-bubble. The structure, however. Is more complicated than that of a soap-bubble. It is not a sphere but what Eddington calls a "four-dimensional hvpersphere." There is not much use trying to make a picture of a four-dimen-sional hypersphere, although Eddington says that by trying hard he ran get a faint mental picture of four dimensions. According to Lemaitre. the expanding universe which we see around us us the flying debris of a primeval explosion that took place eons ago. Before that explosion, all the matter of the universe was concentrated in one gigantic, universal atom. Still another model of the universe is given by Tolman. He arrived at his by mixing the theory of relativity with the laws of thermodynamics and shaking the mixture well. Ihe result is no exploded universe doomed to expand until its energy has been completely dissipated, but a universe which expands and contracts like an accordion. There is more optimism in Toman's celestial accordion. It plays notes of hope, reassuring us that the doom inherent in Eddington's four-dimen-sional soap-bubble may not necessarily be so. Discover Red Shift But. while discussions of the expanding universe hold the center of the stage, most of the work going on now in astronomical observatories is concerned with much lew ambitious fields. Even the Mt. Wilson Observatory, whose studies of the very distant spiral nebulae have furnished most of the observational proof needed for theories of the expanding universe. Is concerned also with problems closer at home. Dr Edwin P. Hubble and Dr. Milton C. Humasnn have collected most of the evidence for the theory of the expanding universe, using a powerful spectroscope in conjunction with the 100-inch telescope, the worlds largest telescope. What they discovered was the famous “red shift” in the spectrum of these nebulae, which the theorists interpret to mean that the universe is expanding. But Dr. Walter S. Adams, director of the observatory, has also been attaching a powerful spectrograph to the big telescope and turning it on objects right in our own astronomical back yard, studying the earth's brothers and sisters, the other planets in the solar system. Doubtful of Life on Mara Tins work has led Dr. Adams to the conclusion that there Is much less possibility of life on the planet Mars than astronomers have been inclined to think there was. Another important task carried out under Dr. Adams' direction lias been the determination of the "spectroscopic absolute magnitudes" of 4 000 stars. This study is of the utmost value since it enables us to say with considerable accuracy the distances of those 4.000 stars from the earth and so gives us additional insight into the structure of our Milky Way or galaxy. The distance of the nearer stars can be measured by trigonometric methods. The astronomer notes the shift of the nearer star against the background of distant stars. This shift, due to the movement of the earth around the sun, is so extremely small for even the nearest stars that it can be detcctied in their rase only with the mast precise instruments by the most skillful observers. Measure Star’s Bright new In 1914 Dr. Adams showed that the spectrum of a star was a clew to its absolute magnitude or true brightness. More exactly, he showed that the strength or weakness of certain lines in the spectrum were a clew to the star's intrinsic brightness. Now the apparent brightness of a star can be measured easily. Therefore. if we know, by Adams’ method. the true brightness, we can then calculate its distance from a very simple formula. The method, when tried out on the nearer stars, checked with the distances obtained by trigonometric measurements, and so astronomers have felt safe in extending it to the more distant stars. And as previous- • Iv mentioned. Dr. Adams has just completed such measurements for 4,000 stars. The trigonometric method works well only with stars within a tadius of 150 light years. A light year is six trillion miles. The dominion astrophysical observatory in Canada has also been engaged in determining the absolute spectroscopic magnitude of stars with the result that today we have more distances determined by the spectroscopic method than by the trigonometric one.
