SOVIET TO ROLE CHURCH. Only Sermons of Religious Char- acter to Be Allowed. RIGA, July 4.—Russian soviet gov- ernment officials have decided to take stricter control over the churches in Russia, according to Moscow news- papers recelved here.

The leglon's message was delivered | by Gilbert Bettman, chalrman of the, national legjslative committee of the organization, who told Mr. Harding that his *‘unusual procedure” of asking de- ferment of the legislation, after both houses of Congress had indicated their overwhelming support of it, would not prevent uliimate success for the com- pensation measure. A declaration of similar import was delivered by Mr. Bettman to Secretaries Mellon and Hoover and Attorney Gen- eral Jpaugherty. In each of the confer- ences, the legion representative asserted that the administration’s stand was a direct supervision of the will of the peo- ple of the United States.

The uiry into the Mingo strike troubles W belng conducted by the Senate may yield no constructive re- sult, but it has already revealed one fact in striking fashion. ‘There can be no industrial peace in the land as long as the “labor spy” and the whole system of espionage on labor unions offensive and defensive weapons in the hands of the emplo; ing Interests. The system is moral! and ethically unsound. ‘ It may be justified, it has been Jjustified. as a means of “fighting the devil with fire”; as the only way in-which law- less unionists can be tracked and their lawlessness stamped out. The theory is that all is fair in war, and that while labor is plotting against capital the latter has a right to plot against labor. & If the Mngo inve: ation should lead “to a constructive study of in- dustrial relations by the Senate, it is safe to predict that the first point of attack will be this form of indus- trial “secret service.” which does so much to cregte bad blood in labor disputes.

Cor. 191416 Pa.Ave. 7th &K 235PaAveSE Where Would You Go to Find the Equal of Cadillac Value? Perhaps the greatest slugle tribute that is paid the Cadillac, is the indifference of its owners to the appeal of other cars struggling for a share of Cadillac preference. Year after year, for ten years, eager salesmanship has been centred and concentrated upon this effort to divert the Cadillac owner from his allegiance. Year after year Cadillac owners have remained indifferent; and year after year their number has increased. This could not be 80, of course, but for the positive conviction of the Cadillac owner that it would be impossible for him to find a car at once so superbly smooth and so free from the need of adjustment, overhauling and repair. He believes—as we know—that these qualities are the fruit of such years of organization and striving after perfection as only the Cadillac has enjoyed. He believes that this sort of continuous satisfaction, freedom from care, cost and worry, is the one and only thing that spells motor car value. If he werevofiered—_as no doubt he frequently is offered—the most lavish sort of inducement, he would still consider it bad business to relinquish the certainty the Cadillac alone can give him, Phaston « - - « $379 TouringCar « - $3940 Roadster - - - Victoria = « « - 4540 Suburban - - <" 5199 ‘Town Brougham - ':Z: ded2n o o - - 4950 Limousine - « - 85290 Imperial Limousine 5390 .
