‘A—12 . THE EVENING STAR, WASHINGTON, D. C., FRIDAY, JANUARY 20, 1933. JEATHY D POOR HAL N CULTT 1,200 Guests of Firestones as Dr. Frank N. P. Buch- man Is Received. Ty the Associated Press AKRON, Ohio, January 20.—Silvery ! rowns and starched collars of Akron’s ocially prominent mingled freely with undreds from humbler walks of life ‘ast night as approximately 1,200 per ons weleomed 30 leaders of Buchman ism, teaching a “religion of simplicity. Dr Frank N. D. Buchman and his varty of 29 were dinner guests of Mr. | ond Mrs. Harvey S. Firestone, sr., and “ir. and Mrs. Russell Firestone in the :xurious ball room of a downtown hotel, | hile an overflow audience crowded into | nearby auditorium. Representatives (¢ the city's churches were among the i:undred men and women at the dinner. The Buchman party, invited to Akron Ly the Russell Firestones, who recently sacame “‘conv of the Oxford move- ment’s advocacy of sharing one’s goods and thoughts with others, gave a series of short “testimonies” at the dinner. Greeted With “Amens.” Kenniston Twitchell, graduate of Ox- ford and Princeton, where he was a close friend of young Firestone, spoke to the overflow gathering. His words, as well as those of his companions in the ball room, were interrupted occa- sionally by “amens” from the audience. Harvey Firestone, sr., though not a “convert” to Buchmanism, said he approved its purpose. “My mother converted me,” said the tire manufacturer. ut in watching my son’s and his wife's activities I am | convinced that the Oxford Group has a vital contribution to make to the religious and social life of today. ! “Share something with the other i low—that is _the greatest religion | can have. The quicker this is done, | the quicker we will get out of troubles. People today arc in need of an awaken- ing.” Explains Quiet Hour.” Dr. Buchman, explaining briefly the “quiet hour” practiced by the Oxford Group as one of meditation and com- munion with Jesus Christ, declared a trade revival can come only through a spiritual revival. ‘The Oxford movement, he said, does not aggravate by admonishing that a thing is wrong. but brings the question before the individual by acking, “What do you think of this or that?” Twitchell ascerted “the Nation faces a spiritaul emergency,” and said the Buchman Group believes “sin is any- thing that separates a person from God or his fellow man. We do not ask that you fight your way up to God, but to open your hearts that He may come in.” DEVICES TAKE NOISE | OUT OF MOTOR BOAT| Grand Central Palace Exhibits In- clude Sailing Vessels and Cruisers. By the Assoclated Press. NEW YORK, January 20.—They're tbaoking the “‘put-put” out of the moto: at. Hundreds of new craft went on dis-| play at the annual show of the National | Association of Engine and Boat Manu- | facturers today and several noise-elim- | inating features attracted immediate | attention. One boat was electrically propelled. in another a Diesel engine developed for small vessels was included, and a third feature merely a matter of sub- merging exhausts and passing the noise into the water. ‘The new electric boat is small and de- signed for lakes, amusement parks, recreation centers and resorts. The last word in comfort and snappy ap-| pearances, it is 14 feet long and has a | low, deeply cushioned cockpit. Two storage batteries permit eight hours of continued operation. Facilities for re-! charging, its sponsors say, make th craft_simple enough to operate. The| hull has an illuminated figurehead and an awning top and in appearance is a cross between an old-time launch and | Venetian_gondola. | The exhibits at Grand Central Palace range from 4-foot sailing boats to 60-| foot cruisers and yachts. Models and | drawings of dozens of more elaborate vessels were in evidence. | A 47-foot stock double-cabin bridge | deck cruiser was one of the 1933 fea- tures. It is powered with a 180-horse- power motor and has an estimated| speed of 20 miles an hour. i JEFF DAVIS’ “GRANDSON” JAILED FOR CONTEMPT Clash With Attorney in Alimony | Hearing in Colorado Blamed on William D. Hayes. By the Associated Press. COLORADO SPRINGS, January 20. —William D. Hayes, who claims Jef- ferson Davis, President of the Confed- erate States, as a grandfather, went to jail for a few hours yesterday for con- tempt of court in an alimony hearing. Hayes testified he had been ill with pleurisy, but had recovered, and Vic- tor W. Hungerford, Mrs. Hayes' at- torncy, commented: “So you are now again a regular two-fisted he-man?” Hayes replied he was a better man than the lawyer “and can prove it.”| He didn't get the chance. District Judge Arthur Cornforth called the sheriff. Previously Hayes had testified the| family plantation in Mississippi yields | no revenue and he was unable to meet alimony payments, When he was re- turned to the courtroom, he was or- dered by Judge Cornforth to pay $50 a month for the support of his wife | and minor child. Hayes is the son of the late J. Addi-| son Hayes, pioneer Colorado Springs banker. He said his mother was a daughter of President and Mrs. Jeffer- son Davis. e e Japanese Aids Christianity.

TTUMS. O o e [ e WAREN . GRME WARREN W. GRIMES. CHICAGO “ARTICLES” JAIL FOREIGN PRIEST Hungarians Aroused by Punish- ment for Conduct During Exile. By Cable to The Star. VIENNA, Austria, January 20.—On account of articles published in Chi-| cago, Father John Hock, 74-year-old Hungarian priest, was sentenced to one year in prison in Budapest late yes- terday, reports from Hungary disclose. ‘The severity of the sentence is arous- ing a protest among Hungarians, it is said, at the intolerance of the present | Hungarian regime, and it is hoped that Father Hock will be pardoned by Re- ent Admiral Nicholas Horthy. Father Hock was a well-known Catho- lic figure in pre-war Hungary. He was president of the National Assem- bly, which proclaimed the Hungarian republic just before the end of the war. He left Hungary when the present regency was formed and spent 15 years in exile. He spent some months in Chicago where he contributed to the Hungarian language newspaper, Magyar | Tribune. A few weeks ago, lonesome for his fatherland, Father Hock returned to Hungary from Vienna and was prompt- ly arrested for alleged subversive activi- ties during his last 10 years abroad.
