The question of the legality of pay ments made for the Livermore, Calit., Veterans' Hospital plans again hae Ween laid before Controller General McCarl by Director Hines of the Vet- orfns’ bureau. The case figured prom- inently in the Senate investigation of Veterans' Bureau affairs, where it was testified that Matthew O'Brien, | 8an Francisco architect, received | 3$97.000 for drawing the plans. Mr. McCarl has taken no action in the case, It was stated today, and of- fictals of his office sald there was no assurance that he would do more than examine the record to deter- mine whether Director Hines had pre- ®gnted new evidence of a character warranting review. O'Brien _had an original contract with the Veterans' Bureau by which he was to receive $64,000 for drawing the plans, but he later filed a plea which was approved, for $33,000 more. Attention was calied by officials of the controller's office to the stand taken by Mr. McCarl two months ago when in a letter to Director Hines he declared that the general account-, ing office considcred itself blameless in the decision awarding $33.000 to Mr. O'Brien for the reason that mot il of the facts bearing on the paye ment had been presented with the woucher whick the controller general approved. The bureau direclor then wasin- fermed that if there was additional avidence the accounting office would sxamine it. —— i LAYS ILLS OF WORLD | | TO MATERIAL BELIEF { Christian Science Lecturer Says Basic Error Is in Ignoring God’s Truth. “Christian Sclence, the Reconciler and Consoler’ was the subject of a lecture delivered last night at the First Chureh of Christ, Scientist, by Rev. Andrew J. Graham, C. 8. B, of Boston, Mass. Rev. Graham ts a former clergy- man of this city and now lIs a mem- bor of the board of lectureship of the First Church of Christ, Sclen- tist. of Boston, Mass. He was intro- duced by Elmer I Baldwin, first reader of the WFirst Church here, under whose auspices the lecture was given. Rev. Graham, before & Iargs audience, sald, In part: “The co-operation and union of all who love the Lord Jesus Christ is an end devoutly tb be desired. * The | belief of separation should cease. But Christian Science and churches of other names can never be brought into harmony of thought or recon- ciled the basis of mutual com- promiss Human opinions may vompromise. but divine principle cannot do that. To do much healing ‘work and to do it well, the Christian s, mental fruth. This error or attitude of thought Christian Sclence.abso lutely repudiates. It a ment: position repudiated by the words and acts of Jesus. It Is a position which has darkened all religious history and has hindered true civilization. It mixes so much error with truth, that Christendom sees God us through a glass, darkly, and has lost the power to heal ~As Christians of other names approximate to primitive Christian teaching and practice, the sense of separation will disappear. Scienca is stirring the world. Almost_uncon- scibus of the fapt, Christians of ofher names are striving to bring Christian Sclence back to themselves, Instead of going forward with it Seek Reconciliation. “Thelr effort is to put new wine into old bottles, They are ceeking reconcillation on a false basis. The Christlan Science Church can fulfill its mission only by refusing to sacri- fice principle for pollcy. The vast majority of Christian Scientists were reared In‘other folds, They came to see the incongruity and impossibility of reconcillation in any other w than through a return to primitiv truth and practice. Not as corporate bodies, nor as masses of men, moved by conventionzl resolutions, but as tndividuals, one by one, through heal- ing of mind and body. nRnkind is be- ing reconciled—united “All the troubles of mankind are the resulte of their belief in the reality of matter. History shows that men cling to matter long after its deceitfulness begins to appear. Usuall they resort to spirit only after the falsity of matter is learned through much’ suffering. Any sys- tem of teaching which inculcates trust in matter weakens faith in spirit and is un-Christian. The larger part of mankind still put their trust in matter-medicine. In this respect Christendom as_a whole has prac tically forsaken God for matter. But individuals who have longz been dominated by that thought are changing in great numhers. Wherever the reconciling power of Christian Sclence is accepted matter gives place to spirit. “The rapld growth of Christian Science is largely due to the epirit of | freedom under Jaw which it incul-| cates and demands. Furthermore, the multitudes who are released from | sorrow, sickness and sin, through| Christian Science healing, are so grateful that they gladly listen for its voice and obediently follow its behests. Their reconciliation to law is the guerdon of their freedom. “A Happy and Prosperous New Year” Begin the New Year with lots of pep, vitality and energy.

Clarke, formerly high in the counclls of the Ku Klux Kian, has been attempting for months to “de- stroy” the order, according to a statement issued by Milton Elrod, di- rector of its department of publica- tion and education, after publication of Mr. Clarke's demand for “reform” within the organization or its dis- solution. Mr. Clarke's charge, in a letter to President Coolldge, that “an element” of the Klan was diverting jt from the purposes and ideals of its foun- ders and his announcement that he intended to call upon “the better ele- ment” to take steps to “remedy the existing evils” or disband the organ- ization * brought from Mr. ,Elrod a declaration that the membership had Erown from “less than 100,000 mem bers after seven vears of Clarke re. gime” to a “total membership of millions under the present adminis- tration.” “Expnnsion Shows Sinecerity.” This expansion, he said, was “evi- dence of the sincerity of purpose and the knowledge of klansmen them- selves of the true ideals and high purposes” of the order, and he r ferred “the klansmen of the nation Ecclesiastes, 7.21, which read “Also take no heed unto all wor that are spoken, lest thou hear thy servant curse thee To Cure a Cold in O) Take Lasative BROMO QUI The box bears the signature of 00— Advertisement.
