O, TUESDAY, MAY 27, 1919. $1.50 Al YEAR CASH. The MATERIALISM IS DANGER OK AMERICA SAYS Pit LITTLK lYwuhecl Senium at In Ion Servlc of Various Churches In the Chautau qua Tent Sunday Afternoon "Two Views r Life" Whs Sublet.. The great danger of America today . is materialism, declared Dr. Luther Little, pasior of the First Baptist church of Charlotte, addressing a large coup relation front the various churches of the city in the Chautau qua tout Sunday afternoon on "Two Views of Life." Dr. Little declared that this danger overshadowed all others and express ed the fear for the nation if it should turn lis attention more to the materi al tilings than to things religious and educational. As he expressed it. if the nation should "leave God out of its vision." These remarks were made by the gifted minister after he had said that till humanity was divided Into two classes those who had Ccd in their vision of life and those who did not have God in their vision. The outlook to those who belong in the laitter class is bleak and dreary, and they . have little heart to bear the burdens of life, he told his audience. On the cither hand, he said, to those who have a vision of God In life there is a joy In existence. Everything works to the ultimate good. "God is on his throne and all's well with the world." "While the war raged and millions of men went to their death there were people who proclaimed that God had deserted his world, but there needed only the rolling away of the smoke of battle to reveal thail all this sacrifice was not in vain," be said. It meant the re-birth of many a down trodden, oppressed nation. Dr. Little built his wonderful ser mon around two passages front the Look of Genesis, both of them the words ot Jacob. In the first passage which furnished the foundation of the sermon Jacob has just been ad vised -that one of his sons has been kept hostage In Egypt, the gold sup' posed to have been paid for their grain is found in their sacks, and his nous tell him that the man from whom they made their purchase re quires that they bring their younger brother for him to see. "Me have you bereaved of my children," says Jacob, and he proceeds to recite tits troubles and bemoan his lot. "The trouble wlith Jacob In this instance was that he had left God out of his vision." said Dr. Little. In the second passage Jacob has just been told that his son Joseph lives, and is a great man in the land of Egypt, and that he sends word for him to come and bring his family and live in the land of plenty. Then Ja cob arises with much Joy and declares Ms Intention to, go at once to see his son who dwells in Egypt. "In this instance," said Dr. Llltle, "hiR vision of God had returned." Dr. Little then proceeded to show that vhnt was true in the time of Jacob in this respec t is true today. He related concrete examples to show no :..an is sufficient unto himself. THE HAUTAUOUA The Program Improve Daily, Mon day's Being One of the Best Ever Offered by the Hcdpalli Manage incut Clows To-Night. Friday afternoon and for a half hour in the evening two young ladies who were with the Killarney Girls last year entertained Monroe people with their musical selections and hu morous readings. The young people particularly enjoyed this program but the entire audience liked the number contrasting the present time with "Grandma's Day." and the selections imitating small children. Miss Florence Bullard, a Red Cross nurse, told In a quiet way during the afternoon some of her experiences In France, and in the evening Mr. W. M. Forkelle lectured on "The Re-discovery of America." He was especi ally strong in his denouncement of the Bolshevikl and the I. W. W.'s, classing the latter as a cross between a porcupine and a pole cat. His talk was chiefly on the war, an overwork ed subject, but his remarks were orig inally put and dramatically delivered. The audience agreed unanimously that Kryl's band, which cave concerts Saturday afternoon and evening, sur passed Pallaria's and Creatore's hands, both of which had favorably impressed Monroe audiences in the past. Mr. Kryl Is a cornetist of world renown and delighted his audience with his solos on that Instrument There were about thirty members of this organisation, among them being a brother of Bohumlr Kryl, his son and a famous surgeon who had re cently returned from France. The pageant, "War, Victory and Peace," was graphical, the music being arran ged by Mr. Kryl. It depicted a peace ful land with children happily play ing until Mars, the god of war, came upon the scene to pillage and destroy. He was driven away by the American army and navy, typified by young men wearing the uniforms. Later the national airs of the allies were plaved as the flags were brought forth. An extra entertainment was given yesterday morning , in the debate "Shall the Government Control and Operate the Railroads?" The affirm ative was represented by Hon. Chas. Zeublin, a famous publicist formerly connected with Chicago University, and a man who has spent his life studying national and International questions. Hon. Leslie M. Shaw ar gued tbe negative side. He 1s .a former Secretary of the Treasury and twice governor of Iowa. One would think that arguing this question each day (he debate would become dull and prosaic. Exactly the opposite Is true; it was full of Interest and sparkling with wit. Among the bright' thoughts brought out on this question, one of supreme Importance to the American people were: "Trans- portation is the best yardstick by which we measure " civilization"; "Private ownership in the United States built 26 miles of railroads for every 10. Otto people as compared with 5 miles for every 10,000 people by the German government"; Every man is doing a job too big for him; if he were doing it right he wouldn't be doing it"; "All business stands on three legs, capital, labor and man agement"; "The difference between private and public business fs that we can see the mistakes in the latter, in the former they are kept quiet"; We have not tried federal ownership. Ronds were taken over in an emer gency to win the war." Miss Marie Rose Lauler. a young French girl, yesterday afternoon told the story of how she made an escape from a school In France, captured by Germans at "the outbreak of the war. Unable to speak English she produc ed a small U. S. flag and in that way passed as an American girl and after months of travel and confinement made her way through Switzerland to America. Since November 11th she has visited her old home and was very sad over the devastation there "It Pays to Advertise." the extra number secured for the Chautauqua, and presented last night, was a rous ing good comedy. The tent was packed and everyone carried home their full quota of laughs. There were no doubting Thomases with re gards to advertising after the play was over. Although Kt was the first time that the play had been given on the Chautauqua platform, coming di rect from New York to Monroe, it went off without a hitch and the ac tors played their parts well. Love, laughter and finance were cleverly In terwoven In the plot. Memorial Services at Sandy Ridge, To the Editor of The Journal: Will you kindly permit me through the columns of your paper to say a few words In regard to Memorial ser vices at Sandy Ridge Baptist church, observed last Sunday? Despite the Inclement weather, an Immense crowd was present to pay tribute to Privates Stafford Griffin and Jackson Flncher. Prom this com munity thirteen young men did ser vice for their country and the two mentioned above made the supreme sacrifice. The feature of the morning service was the singing of the choir and the sermon by pastor K. W. HO' gnn. The 'choir leader, Mr. G. W. Moser. was on ithe job, and he and his choir, which Is a credit to the church. rendered several appropriate selec tions, "In Memory." "Our Tribute of Flowers'" and "Sweetly Sleep." Need less to say they were onjoveil. Mr. Hogun's theme was the "Moral Teach ings of the Cross," and a noble dis course It was, proving conclusively it was a masterpiece. Immediately following the sermon a bountiful dinner was served on the grounds. Everybody was fed and enough to have fed many more was carried home. In the afternoon we had a treat in deed. Mr. Moser and his choir was again on the job and gave a number of good selections, efter which Mr. B. C. Ashcraft paid a glowing tribute to the fine character of the two young men who gave their all for their country. He spoke of his experience as a member of ithe exemption board, how he remembered these young men, their readiness to serve, and said al though they did not die In line of battle, yet had they been In action they would have done so without a murmur. At the conclusion of the services pastor Hogan paid a glowing tribute to Mr. D. J. Melton, a member of the famous 30th division, and wounded in the attack that broke the Hlnden burg line; how as a volunteer, through love for his country he of fered his life to preserve the freedom ot his country. Be It said to the honor of this pro gressive community, they never do things by halves, and we who were the recipients of their kindness will always remember them and hope to spend many more pleasant hours with them.

H Kit V HAWKER TELLS WHY OVERSEAS FLIGHT FAILED. Ciii-ulatioii System Heroine Choked and After 12i Hours Floying the Australian Realized He Hud Xo Chance to Reach Ireland. Tbe London Times has cabled Hairy Hawker's own story which is a" follows: 'Wo' had very difficult .round to rise from on the other side. To get in the air at all we had to run diag onally across the course. "Once we got av.ay we climbed very well but when about ten minutes up we passed from fair clear weather in 'o the foe off tbe New Foundland banks. We got well over this, how ever, and of course, U once loet sigh' of the sea. "The sky was quite clear for the first four hours, when the visibility became very bad. Heavy c'oud banks were encountered and eventually we Hew into a heavy storm with rain .-quails. At this time we were flying well above the clouds at a height of about 15.000 feet. "About 5 1-2 hours, owing to the choking of the filter, he temperature of the water cooling our engines started to rise, but after coining down several thousand feet we overcame this difficulty. Everything went well for another few hours, when once again the circulation system became choked and the temperature of the water rose to the boiling point. We of course realized that until the pipe was cleared, we could not rise much higher without using a lot of motor power. "When we were about 12 1-2 hours on our way the circulation system was still giving us trouble and we realized we could not go on using till or motor power. Then it was that we reached the fateful decision to play for safety. We changed our course and began to fly diagonally across the main shipping route for about two and a half hours, when, to nur great relief, we sighted the Dan ish steamship which proved to be the tramp Mary. "We at once sent up our very light distress signals. These were answered promptly and then we flew on about two miles and landed in the water ahead ot the steamship. "The sea was exceedingly rough and desipte the utmost efforts of the Danish crew It was one and a half hours before they succeeded in taking us off. It was only nt a great risk to themselves, In fact, that they eventu ally succeeded In launching a small boat owing to the heavy gale from the northeast, which was raging. "It was found Impossible to salvage the machine, which, however, is most probably still afloat somewhere in mid-Atlantic. Altogether, before be ing picked up, we had been 14 1-2 hours out from Newfoundland. We were picked up at 8: HO a. m. on Mon day, Greenwich time. "From Captain Duhn of the Mary. and his Danish crew we received me greatest kindness on our journey home. The ship rallied no wireless and it was not until we arrived off the Bat of Lewis that we were able to communicate with the authorities. H. L. MONTGOMERY MURDERED ON A CHARLOTTE HIGHWAY Popular Manager f Overland Co. Riding With Young Lady WIkmi He Is Shot to Death Motive is a Profound Mystery Coroner's In quest Held Monday. Harry L. Montgomery, 30 years of age; manager of the parts department of the Dail-Overland company, of Charlotte, was shot and Instantly kill ed Friday night about midnight while riding with Miss Lorine Owens along road connecting Myers park and Dil worth. The shooting occured near bridge over Sugar Cane creek. It was not on the main road but on a dirt road that leads to the main road into Myers park. A negro named Ernest Hunter was arrested charged with the murder and Is in jail, but an autopsy reveals that the bullet which crashed Into Montgomery's brain was a .38 caliber, while the pistol found at the negro's home carried a 22 bul let. It so happened that Word H. Wood was driving homo after having attended a meeting In the city and had driven through Dilworth to take Clarence Knester home, which led him near the spot where the murder was committed. He heard a scream and a second later the headlights of his car flashed on a young woman standing in the middle of the road waving her arms frantically. She was covered with blood, and crying wild ly that a negro had shot and killed Harry 'Montgomery. Mr. Wood stop ped his car and aided the half-crazed young woman to enter the rear seat. The girl told Mr. Wood that Mr. Montgomery had accompanied hfr to a dance at Fox's dancing academy earlier In the evening, and that they were on their way to her home In Dilworth In Montgomery's runabout. When about 200 feet from the Sugar creek bridge a negro stepped in front of them and shouted for thorn to slop. The negro, according to the girl, came close to the side of the machine and suddenly pulling his revolver shot Montgomery through the head without ottering a word. The negro, the young woman stated, began to search Montgomery's body, which had Mien from the machine to the roadside. The girl said she screamed for helo and the negro turned and said. "Shut up, or I will kill vou too." "What hsve you got?" the negro then demanded of tbe girl. "Nothing but a wrist watch." she said. He de manded it. but when she refused to give 4t up he attacked her. but with cries and fighting valiantly she fright ened him off. Later she said that the man walk ed away. Wihtin a short time after learning of the arrest a white man whose name was not given out, was placed under arrest. Tins man. about 26 years of age, came to the police office after midnight and said that he was on Scott avenue when he heard two pistol shots and heard a woman scream. "You have killed my hus band." Miss Owens said she had at tempted to lift Mr. Montgomery's body into the car and in this effort her clothing was colored with blood. The girl was engaged to marry Mont gomery and the marriage was to take place soon. After finding by the autopsy that the bullet was 38 and not 22 calimer. the coronet's jury decided to meet later, according to the condition of the young woman. The case seeems shrouded in mystery and many the ories are advanced. There was no blood in the negro's shoes, and he protested that he had not been "across the road tonight." Miss Owens is the daughter of Mr. and Mrs. R. L. Owens, and lives on Scott avenue, Dilworth. She is 17 years old, and had been going with Montgomery for some time. Montgom ery was divorced from his wife in court a few weeks ago. He has a child four years old, was a native of Wil mington, N. C. Letters were this afternoon found on the ground. The man's money was not touched. The theory this after noon is that Montgomery had letters that somebody wanted. Perhaps never beofre has a crime been committed In Charlotte which has attracted such interest as has the slaying of Harry Montgomery. The killing has been the chief topic of discussion and comment for two days, and eargerness to learn the latest de velopments has been manifest by thousands. The scene of the crime was visited yesterday by throngs of persons from the city and vicinity. Automobiles blocked the road near the point of the. killing. Police officials are of the belief that the crime is the most mysterious in the annals of the local department. Coroner Hovis yesterday con ducted an Inquest at which no new developments entered. Miss Owens made substantially the same state ment as she did the night the crime was committed. She was almost pos itive that Hunter was the negro who shot her fiance. The Inquest was se cret and was not finished at nightfall. It was scheduled to begin again this afternoon at 4 o'clock and will prob ahlv last throughout the week. Judging Mr. WIlJou Springfield Republican. Mr. Wilson is always the "storm center." A fortnight ago till Italy ex ecrated him on account of Flume. To day all Germany abhors him. If a Country anywhere gets less than It wanted it blames Wilson. There are still Englishmen who be lieve he set out to destroy their sea power with his doctrine of the free dom of the seas, and they are right in charging that ho prevented their government from gelling into the treaty a demand for an Indemnity for 120 billions. There will long be Frenchmen to think that their coun try was kept Impoverished for a gen eration and made as insecure from German invasion as ever in the past 50 years because of Wilson's "soft ness" towards the Huns. Mr. Pade rewski's Poles curse him, doubtless, because Danzig is to be International ized Instead of given outright to Po land. The Greeks will probably fasten on Wilson as their secret enemy if they do not obtain the Dodecanese islands. The Japanese are better sat isfied than they expected to be, per haps, but they would have had every German island north of the equator and Klachou beyond dispute but for Wilson's friendliness to China and his detestable league of nations man datories. There may be truth in all of the accusations hurled at the head of Wilson from the ends of the earth. What he, behind the scenes, prevent ed from getting into the treuty might surprise the world. His chief work at Paris, It could be said, has been to take care that everybody in some par ticular was disappointed to the point of exasperation. The present signs are that If that was part of his mission, he has wonderfully succeeded. Can anvone be found who is half-way con tented? Notice how the Germans rave and they expected so much from him. Observe how furious, even, are Wilson's American critics who all the winter and spring were apparently convinced that he was softly aiming at "peace without victory." Now that the peace terms are known, they ap pear to be almost as much shocked as the Germans are by their severity. It Is a strange sight not the least Interesting of the war to have Wil son stagger the most rancorous ene mies of Germany by the rigor of the sentence he has permitted to be pass ed upon the defeated power. If Mr. Wilson could speak his real feeling he would say that he was not satisfied himself. If he could make the treaty alone, without any intet ference, it would then at least be a "Wilson peace" rather than the com posite which now greets with the full approval -of nobody. Mr. Wilson's peace theory, however, extends to the league of nations which could be used to rectify the worst errors and ameli orate severities of the peace terms at a later period when the atmosphere would be less charged with national passions. As a peacemaker, therefore. ALLIED TROOPS READY IF HOSTILITIES ARK RENEWED German lrolests Against Sections of Treaty Have Little Effect They Must Sinn or Refuse" Attitude of Germans is ( hanging. Germany's scries of notes protest ing against various sections of the peace treaty apparently have had lit tle effect on the purpose of the Allied and associated governments to have the German delegates sign or refuse the treaty virtually us i.resented. savs the Associated Press. Paris reports are that the only chiiiiges of moment made in the treaty have been in prasc-cdney and details. Several German n;es. how ever, remain unanswered. It is indicated in various reports from Germany that the attitude of the Berlin government is changing, some observers expressing .the opin ion that it will order the delegates at Versailles to sign the treaty. Count von Broekdotff-Hantzau is again at Versailles after his conference Friday at Spa with Premier Scheidemann and other German leaders. What transpired there has not been disclos ed, nor have the German delegates sent any further conmmunicatlons to the peace conference. Meanwhile the Allied troops are be ing held in readiness alone' the Rhine. General Robertson, the British com mander, had a conference at Coblens Friday with Lieutenant-General Lig gett, the commander of the American bridgehead, in regard to their plans should the Germans decline to sign. President Wilson, It is said in Paris, has let it be known that th United States probably would not be ante to take a mandate Tor Constanti- noule or Other narts of ithe former Turkish empire. It has been suggest ed consequently that Constantinople eiiner De paced under joint control of the great nowers. or failing, that Greece be given the mandate for the Turkish capital with the support of the powers. Thirtieth To Meet In tireenville. The executive committee of the 30th division that won world fame in the breaking of the Hindenburg line, in session in Raleigh Saturday after noon, selected Greenville, S. C, as the place for the first annual reunion and named September 29-30 as the days for the reunion. This was after repre sentatives of seven other cities had presented their claims for this honor. The committee made It plain that the selection of Greenville was made because of the central geographical position of that city and because the men of the 30th spent a year there training, and Greenville was anxious to extend hospitality for this first re union, to have the men bark with thriii again. The content between the seven cit ies bidding, for the convention was spirited lint when the winner vv;ts an nounced the others pledged their ut most aid to make the meeting the biggest thing of lis kind in the union. Ashevllle. and Raleigh, this state, Memphis, Chattanooga and Knoxville, Tenn., Columbia Rtid Greenville, S. C, were bidders for the convention, these three states contributing the troops that made up the "Old Hick ory division. Silting in committee with Colonel SprlnTR was Brigadier General Lawrence Tyson of Knox ville, and the Colonel Albert Cox of Raleigh. "LEWISITE" THE DEADLIEST OF ALL THE MANY POISONS One of the Rig Secrets of the War Revealed When a Sample of This Awful Thing Was Shown in Wash. Ington Would Have WIKd Out Every Vestige of Life In Berlin. Guarded night and day, and far out of human reach on a pedestal at the Interior Department Exposition, Is a tiny vial. It contains a specimen of the deadliest poison ever known. It is "LewlsUe," product of an Amer ican scientist. It is what Germany escaped by signing the armistice. Ten airplanes carrying "Lewisite" would have wiped out every vestige of life animal, human and vegeta ble in Berlin. A single day's output would snuff out the four million lives on Manhattan Island. A single drop poured into the palm of the hand would penetrate to the blood, reach the heart and kill the victim in great agony. When the armistice was signed it was being manufactured at the rate of ten tons a day and three thousand tons would have been ready for busi ness on the American front in France on March 1st.- "Lewisite" is another of the big se crets of the war just leaking out. It was developed In the Bureau of Mines by Prof. W. Lee Lewis of Northwest ern University, Evanston, III. It was manufactured In a specially built plant near Cleveland, called the "Mouse Trap," because to protect the secret every workman who entered the stockade went under an agree ment not to lesve the eleven-acre spare until the war was won. A Self-Entertainer. The Hostess "I am goine to ask you to take Mrs. Salston down to dinner." Featherstone "What shall I talk to her about?" The Hostess "It won't be neces sary." Judge. he will stand or fall on the success of the league, and only the historian, years hence, will be able to girt the verdict upon his work In Paris.
