PAGE TWO > MANY VISITORS | INATTENDANCE ° Large Monday Night Audi- ence at McCabe Methodist Church for Revival BY. J. K. DORAN if Last night witnessed, the largest audience ever seen the McCabe Methodist church Monday night, as Monday is wash- sday and “blue Monday” it is very = difficulty to get the people out to any kind of meeting. - The audience was composed of local people and good delegations from Moffit, Mandan, Pleasant Prairie and other parts of Oliver county and individuals for other = sections of the country. In this ~~ number there were some eight’or probably in ten ministers of the gospel. The spiritual condition was deep and pleasing. The congregational singing was excellént as there were so many good singers among the ministers and choir leaders from ‘out of town as well as many of the best singers frem the home church, ” The choir was in good condition’ and did ex- cellent work. Dr, Bernard took for his text part of: the first verse of the eleventh chapter of Luke . and twentieth verse of Jude and reads | (Luke) “Lord, teach us to pray”, (Jude) “praying in the Holy Ghost.” The sermon on prayer was clear, plain and reasonable. The speaker said that no revival of religion had ever come anywhere, unless there was carnest unselfish prayer in the | Holy Ghost. That much prayer was a selfish desire for something the individual wanted and not deep sup- plication for the things that were in accord with the will of God or good for the soul welfare of the indivi- dual praying. That such prayers, would and could not be answered but that. unselfish supplication be- fore the throne of God would be heard and answered. Not always in the way desired but always in the way that is best for the individual as well as for the true glory of God. -Prayer is often the saying of words —a formula and does not reach the gates of heaven let alone the throne but prayer in the Holy Ghost is al- ways heard. ‘ A touching scene was witnessed at the close of the preaching. Just hefore the benediction, Dr. Bennard | asked that those interested in and working and praying for a real re- vival to come down to the alter rail saying that, perhaps there would be too many to permit kneeling but if so to stand around the alter rail. Scores if not hundreds came down the isles and packed the open space in front of the pulpit and back. up the aisles and between the seats, The meetings will continue ‘every .,, Might until December 19th, except Saturday night and there are bible readings at 2:30 afternoons Tues- ; days to Fridays qnd special work on Sunday. There is a special invitition to + those who can sing to join the choir and seldom does such an opportuni- ~ ty offer for the lover and learner in music, as Rev. Renshaw is’ not only a great’ singer but an able teacher of music both oral and instrumental.

The committee has given: the question a full and painstaking in. quiry and study, and I hope that its favorable report speedily will be given the force of law. “It will be helpful in clearing the atmosphere if we started with the frank recognition of divided opin. = ion and determined opposition. It is “ no new experience. Like proposals Be have diveded the congress on various previots occasions. Perhaps a more resolute hostility never was mati- = fest before, and Iam very sure the \ need for decisive action—detisive, = favorable action—never was so ur-{ gent before. t < Founded on Theory “We are not now dealing with a policy founded on theory, we “have a_problem Which is one of grim act- uality. We are facing insistent con- © ditiois, out of which will con either additional and staggering gov- - ernment losses and national impot- * ence on the seas or else the unfurl- ing of the, flag on a Great American merchant marine conimensurate with out commercial importance, to serve = as carrier of our cargoes in peace and meet the necessities of our de- fense in war. . “There is no thought here and now to magnify the relation of a mer- chant ‘marine to our national de- fense. It is enough to recall™that ! we entered the world war almost wholly dependent om our allies for ; transportation by sea. We expeitded = approximately three billions, fever- ishly, éxtravaggntly, wastefully and Sb = impractically. Out of our eagerness | / AT SERVICE part of the | [aa ene of, that aspirations |to make up for the ommissions of | peace and to meet the war emergen- | ey we built and otherwise acquired [the best merchant fleet, which the | government owns today. | Cost of Fleet “In the simplest way I:can say it, our immediate problem is not to ping, which I hold to be one of. the | nignest and most worthy aspirations of any great people; our problem is to deal with what we now possess. |Our problem is to relieve the pub- jlie treasury of the strain it is al- jready meeting. The war constructio1 and the later completion, of war ‘contracts left us approximately 13.- | 200,000 gross tonnage in ships, The | figures are nearer 12,500,000 tons | now, owing to the scrapping of the on a) wooden fleet. More than half’ this tonnage is government owned, and approximately 2,260,000 tons are un-| [der government operation in oge |form or another. The net loss to the | United States treasury—sums actual- lly taken therefrom in this govern- | |ment operation—averaged approxi. | mately $160,000,000 per month dur. | ing the year prior to the assumption | of responsibility by the present ad- ' ministration. A constant warfare on ‘this loss of public funds, and the ‘draft to servide of capable business | management and experienced’ oper- ating directors, have resulted in ap- | plied efficiency and enforced econo- ‘mies. It is very gratifying to report the dimunition of the losses to she | $4,000,000 per month or a total of | $50,000,000 a year; but it is intol- erable that the government should | continue a policy from which so enox- mous a treasury loss in the inevi lable outcome. This loss, more over, attends operation of less than a third of the government owned fleet. Funds For Merchant Fleet “It-is not therefore, a question of adding new treasury burdens to maintain our shipping, we ‘are pay- ing. these burdens now. It is not a question, of contracting an outlay to support our merchant shipping, be- cause We are paying already. I ar not asking your authorization of a new and added draft on the public treasury, I am appealing for a pre gram to diminish the burden we are already bearing. “When, your executive government knows of public expenditures aggre. gating fifty millions annually, which it believes could be reduced by halt through a change of policy, your government would be unworthy of public trust if such a change were not commended made, if it were not insistently urged. “But I have not properly betrayed all the current losses to the public this year. We ate wearing ovr ships without any provision for /replace- ment. We’ are having these loss2s through deterioration now, and are charging nothing against our capital account, But the losses are there, and regrettably larger under govern- ment operation than under private control. Only a few years of con- tinued losses on capital account will make these losses shore deprecia-| tion alone to exceed fifty millions a year now drawn to cover losses in operation, “When the question is asked wiiy the insistence for the merchant ma- build and support a merchant ship- | aa i health authority, Two healthy. and hygienically raised sons illustrate ‘Wiley’s doctrine of health and long life.

November 7, still adhered to his intention today of gjving’ Mrs. Felton an opportunity to be sworn in and sit for a day before present- ing his credentials, é Several Take Oath. Several other new senate members were to take the oath today, after which the senate was expected-to go ahead on its unfinished business while the house devdtes its atten- tion to the subsidy bill. Yesterday’s brief session also pre- cluded presentation by Vice Presi- dent Coolidge of the resignation of Truman H. Newberry of Michigan. Mr. Newberry’s name continued on the senate rolls today but his letter of resignation was expected to bv read into the record today. While the house itself engaged only in the usual preliminary formal- ities yesterday before adjourning out of respect to the late Representative Nolan, ef California, Republican niembers of the merchant marine met to consider the subsidy biil and agreed\to several amendments. One was a provision for direct payment by the government of compensation to mail carrying ships instead of turning the amount due into the gen- eral subsidy fund, this being design- ed to offset losses to ship operations resulting from the prohibition against the-sale of liquor. Another amendment would give the shipping rine act now, the:answer is apparent. Waiving every inspiration which lies ina constructive plan for maintain- ing our flag on the commercial high- ways of the seas, waiving the prud- ence in safeguarding against an; other $3,000,000,000 madness if war ever again impels, we haye the un- avoidable task of wiping out a $50,- 000,000 annual loss in operation ’and losses aggregating many hundreds of millions in worn out, sacrificed, or scrapped shipping. Then the su- preme humiliation, the admission that the United Statés—our America once eminent among the marine na- tions of the. world—is incapable of asserting itself’ in the peace tri would seem to mé doubly humiliat- ing when We own the ships and fail tw the genius and capacity to turn theie prows toward the marts of the world, “This problem cannot longer by ignored, its- attempted solution can- not longer be postponed.

It is unbelieveable that the American people and that the con- gress which expresses their power comsent to surrender and destruction. It is equally unbelievable that our people and the congress/ which trans- lates their wishes into action will longer sustain a program of obstruc- tion and attending losses to the treasury. Urges “Constructive Alternate.” “I have come to urge the construc- ive alternative, to reassert an Amer- iean ‘we will.’ I Wave come io ask you to relieve the responsible ad- ministrative branch of the goyern- ment from a program upon which failure and hopelessness and stag- gering losses are written for every page, and let us tarn to a program of assured shipping to serve us in war and to give guaranty to our commercial independence in peace. “I know full well the hostility in the popular mind to the word, ‘sub- sidy’ it is stressed by the opposition and associated with ‘special .priv- lege’ by those who are upfailing idvocates of governmeft aid when- tips a ada ISS palette ” TUESDAY, NOVEMBER 21, 1922 ever vast numbers are directly con- cerned. ‘Government aid,’ will be a fairer term than ‘subsidy’ in defin- ing what we are seeking to do for our merchant marine, and the in- Iterests sre those of all the people, jeven though the aid goes to the few j who serve : Challenges.
