MODERN TENDENCIES SCORED IN SERMON Drift Away From Christ's Teaching Explains World’s Trouble, Says Vater Taking for his text the “Sermon on the Mount,” Rev. W. A. Vater, pastor of McCabe Methodist Episcopal church, Sunday asserted there is no greater need than for a re-statement f Christian principles upon which ‘all sense of security and permanancy must eventually rest.” “Political programs have become bankrupt and have utterly failed to find a way out of the present di- lemma” he asserted, because they have ignored Christ’s teachings. Pa- gan and atheistic religions have Proved impotent and, because of |seething unrest throughout the world, it is clear that another catastrophe impends. The question now, he de» clared, is “Christ or chaos,” no longer & religious slogan but a world neces+ sity in the confusion of tongues and the welter of conflicting ambitions and opinions. Have Left God Out Pointing to Christ’s teachings that the universe is God-planned, God- inspired and God-created and that. only righteousness and good morals can put it in tune with its creator, Rev. Vater said the trouble with the! world is that men have left God out! lare full. of their thinking and have created a materialistic, mechanistic universe, designed and controlled _by its own inherent ‘forces, As a result, he said, honor, :good will, justice and love are losing their meaning and greed is becoming tri- umphant ix the world. . The doctrine of the Fatherhood of God and the brotherhood of man is being disputed, in practice if not in theory, Rev. Vater asserted and the result is a crumbling of the founda- tions for all human relationships. Man Loses Dignity Modern tendencies, he anid, creat- ing supermen to take the place of God, makes the state supreme and reduces the individual to nothing. As @ result, he said, man loses the dig- \nity which the eternal plan intends him to have. Hitler and Mussolini are such sup- ermen, he said, and both are leading their nations toward war and de- struction. Turning to the American scene the pastor said “our churches are empty and our amusement halis Our morals are at a dreaa- fully low ebb and there is a whole- sale drifting away from God in the high seats of government.” Gummer Pardon Plea Is Again Before Board The state pardon board opened a special session at the state peniten- tiary Monday and was expected to hear a report on investigation of the William Gummer case, serving a life term for murder of Marie Wick in Fargo in 1920, A special day is expected to be set aside for the Gummer case considera- tion after Attorney General P. O. Sathre has given his report on new evidence claimed by Gummer tend- ing to support his alleged innocence. Sathre’s report is based on a probe made by him in Texas.

TINMEDIATE 1G CHANGES |S mons Capital Startled INN. D. INSTITUTIONS ARE NOT LIKELY NOW Administrators Criticize Per- sons Attempting to ‘Under- mine’ Managements No immediate changes will be made in the administration of any state educational institution, the state board of administration decided Mon- day, as it laid down a policy of “or- derly procedure” on all future charges against educators in these institutions. The decision came on a resolution by A. E. Thompson, state superin- tendent of public instruction, who attacked the “undermining” of ad- ministration at “several” state insti- tutions and recommended no changes be made with reopening of schools now underway. Thompson's resolution contained four major points: No changes be considered by the board at this time when the institu- tions are reopening. During the school year opportunity be given those demanding changes to file written charges with the board and for hearings to be conducted on these charges. That, in the meantime heads of these institutions “be supported against undermining or scuttling tactics by individuals whether be- longing to the faculty or not.” That dissatisfied employes of these institutions “who are conspiring with outsiders on these proposed changes will be asked to file, along with writ- ten charges, individual resignations, to be immediately accepted by the board if they fail to substantiate such charges.” ‘Thompson said it “clearly appeared persistent efforts had been made for several months and are still being made to precipitate drastic changes in several of our higher institutions. “The persistent urging to change managements is working incalculable injury,” Thompson declared. “Insti- tutions must be kept free from politi- cal, sectarian or racial influences.” Local Men Talk at Dedication of Park Three Bismarck residents took a leading part in the dedication of the Richland County American Legion Memorial park at Wyndmere Sun- day. Spencer S. Boise, state commander of the American Legion, gave the ded- icatory address. Short talks were giyen by Gov. Welford and by A. D. McKinnon, in charge of CCC work in the state.

The celebration was organ- tized by A. M, Lien, commander of the Wyndmere post, and James Little, Barney, Legion district deputy. Leroy Pease, department Americanism chairman, presided. The Kindred Juvenile band gave an hour’s con- cert. Three thousand persons at- tended. Kintyre—Sixty friends and. relatives honored Charles Wurm here on his 83rd birthday. Ra; Administration, oe 8 League’s Ideas To Hear of Long’s Shooting sz Xa tar, Dy St a American n Recall Syste System Is to Use Ballots Not Bullets, Says Thomas Washington, Sept. 9—(7)—A na- tional capital which often had scoffed at Senator Huey P. Long’s assertion that his foes were out to shoot him was startled Monday to learn that it had been done. Some in the capital had been in- clined to laugh at the body-guards that the Louisianian always had near. him in Washington and at home, and Called it “more demagoguery.” “Most unfortunate,” was the im- mediate reaction of Senator Thomas (Dem., Utah) who began His career in the senate by presiding over an in- vestigation into one of the many charges of political skullduggery which had been laid at Long's door. While the Utah senator, one of the few members of congress remaining in Washington, attributed the shoot- ing to the “act of an irresponsible and thoughtless yn,” he warned against further difficulties. “Shooting always invites more shooting,” Thomas said. “It can not bring better conditions. The Amer- ican system of recall is to use bal- lots and not bullets.” Not only did the capital laugh but even Senator Long laughed when @ month ago, Aug. 9, he read to the senate a long report of what he said was @ plot to shoot him “right in the senate.” The “plot,” the Louisiahian told the senate, was discussed in a room of the hotel De Soto in New Orleans, July 22 and 24. Long himself djscredited the seri- ousness of the plot by jokingly tell- ing the senate that he “got a new Tease on life” when others in the conference room put aside any talk of assassination as unfeasible. Long made enemies in the senate, but they battled him with words and not infrequently chided him for his Precaution in traveling about the city always with a bodyguard of one or more men. Reputedly his guards often sat in the senate gallery to keep a watchful eye on him and one time a Long associate was searched in public by the sergeant at arms, Ches- ley Jurney. No weapon was found. It was Long who brought the ses- sion to a close Aug. 26 with a sensa~ tional filibuster that blocked passage of the third deficiency bill carrying funds for such important new agen- cies as the social security boards and the Guffey coal act board. Commenting on the attempted as- sassination Senator Norris of Ne- braska asserted “we cannot have any- thing of that kind if we are going to have a free government.” Senator Nye of North Dakota said, “that’s terrible.” Local Men Attend Fargo Convention W. H. Schermer, manager of the Nash-Finch whoelsale grocery house here; J. C. Peltier, his assistant; A. Boutrous and J. W. Scott, local gro- cers, and Fred Kist, Mandan grocer, Monday were attending a convention of Red and White grocers at Fargo.
