CROWD LAST NIGHT IS LARGEST (Continued from Page One) this point this country is going on the rocks of immorality. I'd get into society and ford the name of Jesus Christ to be used at clubs and luncheons and public places. I'd say that it is not good etiquette to mention Christ or discuss religion at such places. I'd do this for the same reason that Napoleon Bonaparte would not want the name of Wellington mentioned at a club which he were attending. I'd be a moral man, I'd bring about it and hold up morality as sufficient to merit eternal life. I'd be ashamed to be seen in public places with the Word of God. You understand, this is what I'd do if I were the devil. If you die without Christ you are a lost man or woman. I'd lay down a liberal code, and I'd besmirch the character of every evangelist that came along in order to break down their influence and keep souls from God. The devil gives his people liberties; God gives his people liberty; You hear a man bowling around for more liberty. It's not liberty he's looking for, but liberties. Obey the law of God and the laws of the land, and that will insure you liberty, the 18th amendment as well as any other section of the constitution. I'd hold up a kind of pleasure to men and women, and I'd preach pleasure, pleasure, pleasure and draw their minds from God. If you want to be really happy let Christ into your heart and life. The so-called pleasures and "good times" of this world bite like an adder. It's not more culture that you need, either, but more of God in the heart. A society woman without Christ is nothing but cultivated dirt. How do you like your picture, honey? I'd get some of my impressions on every church board in the country. I'd do this to show that they were not so bad after all, and to prove that you must have the intellect of the unsaved to run the church of God, and every evangelist that preached tute morality for Jesus Christ. "IIf I were the devil I'd lay down a broad, liberal code. I'd rather be a little narrow and deep than so broad and not knee-deep to a duck. That is what is the matter with the church of God today. The devil gives his children liberties; God gives His liberty. "IIf I were the devil I'd institute a kind of pleasure that was polson, so that people would not know their condition until they were thoroly inoculated. I would hide the poison until the fang was in. We have the motion picture, the dance and card playing. "Today the picture show is not recreation. It is dispassion. The industry does not respect the Lord's day, which comes next to the Bible in sanctity. "A Christian should not dance because nobody should. If I were the devil I would initiate that kind of pleasure to keep people's minds off of God. "IIf I were the devil I'd get some of my impressions on the board of every church in town to stop the progress of the church of God and paralyze any spiritual movement. I prove that my impressions have sense and that you need them to run your church, whether they are baptized Christians or not. "IIf I were the devil I'd get some of my impressions to write the school books of the land and inject in small doses into minds in the formative period unbelief, materialistic philosophy and evolution." "IIf I were the devil I'd be a theologian and preacher all I could on the so-called mythological stories of the Bible and hold up sacred stories to ridicule. "IIf I were the devil I would substitute intellectual attainment for religion and make it look so ethical and Christianlike that the people wouldn't know the difference. It isn't more knowledge in the head we need, but more God in heart. Men are dying today for Jesus." Your name goes down on the Lamb's Book of Life." The meeting was dismissed by Bulgin. Cottage prayer services in connection with the revival will be held at the following homes at 9:30 a.m. Thursday: STONE ON STAND IN OWN DEFENSE WASHINGTON, Jan. 28—Atty-Gen. Harlan F. Stone, named to the supreme court by President Coolidge, took the witness stand in his own defense today before the senate judiciary committee to defend his professional record against senator criticism. Stone appeared first at a secret session to explain his former legal activities for J. Pierpont Morgan and his reported intention as attorney general to re-indict Sen. Burton K. Wheeler of Montana. Opposition to these two phases of Stone's legal record has blocked confirmation of his appointment to the supreme court. Stone revealed that the indictment which he would seek against Senator Wheeler involved a "conspiracy to defraud the United States of its oil landa." He said that it was a new case and not a repetition of the Montana indictment against Wheeler. Stone first discussed the indictment brought against Wheeler in Montana last year. He said he ordered a special investigation of the indictment as soon as he had succeeded Harry Daugherty as attorney general. "I appointed Wm. K. Donovan to examine the Wheeler evidence and to report to me his conclusions," said Stone. He reported his conclusions about Dec. 1. I studied them and reached the conclusion that the evidence indicated a conspiracy to fraudulently secure oil and gas prospecting permits in Montana. The acts of this conspiracy occurred at the seat of government and it was necessary for me to proceed in the case in the courts of the District of Columbia." Stone said he decided to give Wheeler an opportunity to appear before the District of Columbia grand jury to explain his connection with the case and to call Wheeler's witnesses before the grand jury. This decision, Stone added, led Christ into your heart and life. The so-called pleasures and "good times" of this world bite like an adder. It's not more culture that you need, either, but more of God in the heart. A society woman without Christ is nothing but cultivated dirt. How do you like your picture, honey? I get some of my imps on every church board in the country. I'd do this to show that they were not so bad after all, and to prove that you must have the intellect of the unsaved to run the church of God, and every evangelist that preached the straight gospel I fight and oppose wouldn't let him come to my church. It's almost impossible for a fundamentalist evangelist to get a unanimous call. The time has come for a housecleaning in the church of God. I'd get some of my imps to write the school books, and in there I'd teach evolution as scientific facts, and I'd regard Genesis as a mythological story. The matter of fact is that evolution without involution is a scientific monstrosity; if you want to believe your great-grand-daddy was a monkey go ahead, but don't you dare to try to tell me that mine was, even if I do look like one. And I'd keep the Bible out of the schools too, if I were the devil. I'd be a theologian, and I'd put my imps into the pulpit, and I'd make fun of the Amen corner, and of the Free Methodist who dress in plain clothes and won't wear jewelry and of that sect of the Presbyterians who wear bonnets, and I'd substitute intellect for the new birth. I'd preach on geology, astronomy, radium, botany, zoology, navigation and wonderful learning, but I'd be careful to keep my hearers' minds from Christ. These things I do if I were the devil. I'm not saying anyone is the devil, but I'm simply saying what I'd do if I were aim, and I'd do this to keep the minds of the people from God. Carter sang "Eternity Is Near." About 47 held up their hands for prayer and several hit the sawdust trail. Bulgin told them: "If a man and woman take the marriage vow before witnesses the law regards them as immediately entering a new relation. If you step up and publicly testify before witnesses that you accept Christ as your personal Savior, and are sincere about it, you are a changed individual whether you have any feeling or not. "The devil is a personality. Personality is intelligence, will, capacity to love and to hate. You cannot kill it. If the devil will simply influence we could mightily kill him. God Himself can't kill the devil. You don't know any evil in the world except personified evil. You get evil from the dynamo of a personal devil." "Stop blaming God for what the Devil does. He was utterly unable to rule this world until Adam." WON't Abandon Child Labor Law WASHINGTON, Jan. 28.—Sponsors of the constitutional amendment prohibiting child labor asserted today that the apparent failure of the amendment thru its rejection by one fourth of the states, would not result in their abandonment of the fight for its adoption. The fight can and will, they said, be carried on by campaigns in the rejecting states which after the manner that the eighteenth and nineteenth amendments were put thru state legislatures. The legislatures that have rejected the amendment can reconsider their action at any time in the future. Constitutional amendments remain pending for years and time and circumstances may change the complexion of a legislature. The campaign for ratification of the amendment is being directed by the American Federation of Labor and it was stated at labor headquarters today that there would be no change in the federations plans in furthering of the amendment despite the unfavorable outlook. Only two states have thus far approved the amendment. These are California and Arkansas. It has been defeated by Louisiana, Texas, North and South Carolina, Washington, Kansas, Ohio, Georgia, North and South Dakota, Delaware, Massachusetts and Oklahoma. Gross misrepresentation by those opposed to the child labor amendment was charged in a statement issued by Frank Morrison, secretary of the American Federation of Labor. In most of the state where unfavorable action already has been taken Morrison said, "there have been organized campaigns of the most despicable nature."

He was utterly unable to rule this world until Adam and Eve sold it to him thru the imperialism of the human wijn. Sorrow and sin do not emanate from God but from the devil. "The name devil means 'Fire one'. Satan means 'son of light'. Another of his names means 'deceiver'. He was knocked out by the Son of God 2000 years ago and ever since he has been trying to knock out God. The subject of demonology is one that should be seriously studied today. "If I were the devil I'd dress so suit my business, which would be to run Hell and keep the minds of people off of God. The devil is not pleased with murder or bed light districts. They are not good advertisements. He'd much rather have you all respectable men and women but to run the world without God in it. "If I were the devil I'd dress foolishly. I'd dress vulgarly, especially entering the sex element and making the minds of men evil. I'd go in society and forbid the name of Jesus being mentioned. Social etiquette now prohibits mention of Christ or religion or the church at any function. It is not considered good taste. "It I were the devil I'd be a moral man; try to get people to be just as good as possible, build all kinds of cults and all kinds of moral codes, but keep them from showing at the foot of the cross. Being good or living uprightly or joining secret orders can't save a man, but only espousing the cause of Jesus and crowning Him King of Kings. A moral man is a better advertisement of the devil's business than Arroward or a fallen woman." "A Class Ad will bring you results." MATSON LINER IS COLLISION VICTIM SAN FRANCISCO, Jan. 28 — A collision between the Matson liner Maul and an unidentified tanker in San Pablo bay early today, resulted in slight damage to the Maul, it was reported by the marine department of the C. of C. today. So thick was the fog that hung over the bay that officers of the Maul declared they were unable to see the tanker or learn her identity.

General Read who recently retired, will return to the United States immediately on the transport Thomas. Miss Read was well known in Washington, D.C., society. Her engagement to James Frederick Murphy of Canada was recently announced. Walsh angrily questioned Stone as to whether he had any evidence different from that used against Wheeler in Montana. "It involves features not involved in the Montana case and witnesses called there." Stone replied. "It does involve many of the same witnesses!" "Yes, many of them." "You said the crime was committed in the District of Columbia, if a crime was committed at all?" "The Montana court would have had the same jurisdiction!" "I can't say that. A crime may have been committed which would be indictable in the District of Columbia, and not indictable in Montana." "Oh yes," Walsh said angrily, "a thousand crimes may have been committed but I want to know whether you could have brought the proceedings in Montana on the evidence that you have." "I don't care to answer," Stone replied.

Madam Ghakir formerly Miss Sidi Wirt, of San Francisco, who married John Spreckels II, and later Sudd Chakir Bey of Constantinople, is accused by the princess of stealing her husband, and has in turn sued for 20,000 pounds on the charge that the Turkish woman tried to incite a group of soldiers to lynch her. Sudd Chakir has issued a denial of the statements attributed to him by the Constantinople correspondent of the Chicago newspaper regarding the attitude of the Turkish press toward the case, and has demanded a retraction."

AFFIDAVIT OF MEANS ADMITTED NEW YORK, Jan. 23—An affidavit, allegedly by Gaston B. Means, detective, in which he admitted having schemed with Mr. and Mrs. W. O. Duckstein, the ruse by which his memoranda, files and documents, wanted by the Wheeler-Brookhart senate committee that investigated former Atty. Gen. Harry M. Daugherty "disappeared," was introduced today by the government at the conspiracy trial of Means and his lawyer, Thos. B. Folder. Means, on the witness stand, identified his signature on the instrument. Means testified subsequent to the affidavit episode that he had recovered only a part of the data. The affidavit, dated Washington, Sept. 20, 1924 read: "It was suggested that the papers, files and documents that I had presented to the Wheeler-Brookhart committee, which was engaged in investigating the department of justice, should disappear, and for the purpose of devising a plan for their disappearance, and the consummation of this plan, I called into conference Mr. and Mrs. W. O. Duckstein. After thoroughly discussing the matter, it was agreed that they appear as witnesses before the Wheeler-Brookhart committee and in accordance with this agreement, they appeared and testified." Mr. Duckstein stated last night he made a written statement of his connection in the matter. "I desire to state, and my statement will be confirmed by the written statement of Mr. W. O. Duckstein, that neither Mr. Hiram C. Todd, special assistant attorney general, nor any other agent of the government, had anything to do with the disappearance of the papers, files or documents."

Hart having refused to permit issuance of a warrant. The complaint was drawn up late yesterday by the district attorney's office at Santa Anak, after Constable Bradford had made formal complaint and presented himself as prosecuting witness. Upon securing the complaint and taking it to Justice Hart, however, the magistrate flatly refused to have the document sworn to in his court, acting on the ground, it was understood, that he did not believe there was basis for arresting the mayor on the charge. Bradford declared at the district attorney's office that he had secured the confession of Cecil Chambers, oil worker of that city, that liquor on which he became intoxicated was secured on a prescription issued by Dr. Bolce. He also had a sworn statement from another La Habra physician to the effect that an examination of Chambers showed his physical condition was such as to warrant the use of liquor for medicinal purposes. Constable Bradford also was declared to have alleged he could produce witnesses to show the La Habra physician was issuing prescriptions indiscriminately. An hour after Chambers secured the prescription he was taken into custody as a "drunk." Dr. Bolce stated his case at the district attorney's office today. He had given Chambers a prescription, he declared, when the latter pleaded that he needed a stimulant because of a severe cold he had contracted and bacuse of a neurological condition.

Chambers was a former patient, the doctor declared. He also presented his book of prescriptions, which showed that less than half of the 100 in the book had been used in a year. Had he been issuing prescriptions discriminately, the physician maintained, he could have secured 100 prescriptions every three months of that time.

What action Constable Bradford might ask the district attorney's office to take was problematic, it was admitted in court circles. He had first taken the matter up with a medical board in Los Angeles, he told at the district attorney's office, and was in turn referred to the prosecutor at Santa Ana.
