Strict Sunday
Laws Indorsed

? Special Qtspotch to The TrTbun'
ATLANTIC CITY, Nov. 25.?Bishop '
Joseph F. Berry, of Philadelphia, who
; resided here to-day at a meeting of ?
the board of bishops of the Methodist
Episcopal Church, asserted that the
Ctturcri would suppott enthusiastically
the campaign which the Lord's Day
Alliance intends to start in thirty-nine
ftates to obtain laws compelling strict
' bservance of the Sabbath.
Not only would all good Methodists
?svpport the project, he said, but so
tvould 90 per cent >'f ;.ll Protestants,
many Roman Catholics and numerous
Jews. Basoball and theater masrnates
and other opponents of the idea had
Selfish motives, he said, and were not
.nspired, as they asserted, by a de?
sire to preserve the rights of the
workingman. Hie workingman, the
Bishop .said, should be the strongest
Viipporter of such legislation, as other?
wise he would havi to v ? '? en day
?a week.
Objects to "Blue Lav ?"
op Berry I m?'.. occasion to de?
clare that he objected strenuously to
the term "Blue Law." saying that it
was a term of "derision that the news
papers ought to omit." The laws for
Sunday are no bluer than the laws for i
the regulation of gambling, counter- j
feiting or burglary, he declared.
"Sunday is an American institution,
as thoroughly American as the public !
aehopl ,or trial by jury," continued '
Bishop Berry. "Any tendency to break j
down' the laws for the observance of ?
Sunday'is a direct attack upon an in- j
stitution that is'peculiarly American.
"The implication of much that is
published in the newspapers on the
Sunday Question is that those who are
in' favor of strict Sunday observance
are a small company of fanatical peo?
ple. Such is not the case. The truth
is-that 90 per cent of the members of
the Protestant churches of the United
States are for careful Sunday observ?
ance, and that largo numbers of Cath?
olics and even Hebrews take the same
attitude.
"The class of people in this country
that should stand like a rock for Sun
nay laws are the laboring people.
"If Sunday becomes secularized, it
will mean seven days' work for the
laboring man. That would be an out?
rage, for he is entitled to one day of
rest a week.
"The people that are pushing for
the destruction of the Sunday law are
:he proprietors of theaters, moving
picture houses and professional base?
ball magnates. '(" ? y are agitating os?
tensibly in the nterests of the labor?
ing people, when, in fact, the agita?
tion is in the interest of their own '
pockets.
Would Protect Sabbath
"In closing, it is to he understood
that the Methodist Episcopal Church |
stands enthusiastically behind this or
any other purposes to protect the
American Sunday."
Louis H. Chalif, of 163 West Fifty-'
seventh Street, wrote yesterday to the
?Board of Bishops o?.' the Methodist
Spiscopul Church, in session at Atlan- ,
tic City, protesting in behalf of the '
New York Dancing Teachers' Society
and the American Conclave of Dancing :
Teachers' Societies against the atti- ;
fude of the Church toward dancing '
and against the amusement laws in its
Book of Discipline
"We shall continue to urge the aboli?
tion of these blue law*}," he wrote,
"as did memorials last, spring from
many Methodist annual conferences,
including the New York, New . York
Kast, New Jersey, Newark, New Eng?
land, New England Southern and Cen?
tral Pennsylvania; also the Chicago
Preachers' Meeting. Notwithstanding
These and other petitions, the Meth?
odist. General Conference in May, at
Des Moines, ostrich-like, by agreement,
refused to discuss this question out
6tde of private committees, and even
retained a ban on the circus." ?

Atlantic Weather Called Rough?
est in Years*, Arriving Greeks
Predict King's Return
Almost an steamships, coaetwi?c as
well as transatlantic, that, arrived here
yesterday mr.orted having encountered
exceptionally heavy weather on the run
from their r*apective ports.
The little "ed U steamship Caracas,
"rom Yene:.j. a and Porto Rico, fought
?i? ;- *.?.:?*, northwan through heavy cross
rr*as which she encountt ?? 1 soon after
she departed from San Juan. Many of
hor passengers, exhausted by seasick?
ness, went to bed -when the vessel came
into Quarantine last night, preferring:
to rest ami come ashore this morning.
The Greek steamship Megali Hellas
from the Piraeus, which ploughed
through gales, and high seas for six?
teen days, made port last night with
2,160 weary passengers. When she
anchored off Quarantine a fleet of small
boats laden with friends and relatives
of the returning travelers swarmed
around the vesjffj and had to bo driven
away by a poi ,..- launch.
The majority of the vessel's passen?
gers were weakened by seasickness and
the visitors from off shore received lit?
tle attention from those thry had jour?
neyed down the bay to gre^t. Captain
Hazapis, master of the Hollas, said he
had been a ;ai'.or for thirty years, and
in all that time had never found the
Atlantic as rough as it was on the voy?
age just ended.
It was the belief of many aboard
thai Constantine will soon be restored
to power in Greece.

Depreciated Stock
Allowances Urged
?n Income Taxation
Amendment Providing for
Reduction in Values Will
Be Presented to Congress
by Merchants Association
Amendment of the Federal income
tax law to in;?!:'.* allowances to business
men f?".r depreciation1* in the value of
their stock is urged upon Congress in a
resolution adopted by the Merchants'
Association of New York, made public
yesterday.
The resolution was adopted after a
report by a committee consisting of
Henry Ives Cobb, R. H. Montgomery,
George C. Pratt, Professor E. It. A.
Seligman and Laurence A. T?nzer. It
follows:
"Whereas, The Federal revenue act,
of 1919 recognized that, in finally de- j
tcrmining the amount of business prof?
its or income subject to taxation for;
the year 191s, allowance should be made
for losses due to depreciation in inven?
tory values; and made due provision ;
therefor, but omitted to make similar
provision for subsequent years; and
"Whereas, During the current year
there has been heavy and general de?
preciation in the inventory values of
merchandise and other assets as of De?
cember 31, 1919 i upon which inven?
tory valuijs the amount, of taxable in?
come or profits were based), wheceby
the true profits of the year 1919, prop?
erly subject to taxation, have been in
many cases greatly reduced; and
"Whereas, Unless remedial legisla?
tion is promptly enacted, many will be
compelled to pay taxes for 1919 on the
basis of inflated fictitious paper profits
far in exceas of the actual profits of
that year;
"Resolved, That The Merchants' As?
sociation of New York urges upon Con- ;
gress the immediate amendment of the j
Revenue Act of February 24, 1019, in
such form as to make adequate provi- !
sion for abatement for losses arising
from depreciation in inventory values
as applied to tax returns for the year
1919 and subsequent years."

I Coal Trade Papers
Denounce Calder's
U. S. Control Plan
Declare Senator's Scheme
Mark c?f Radicalism and
Is Opposed by Harding;
Operators Join Protest
The threat by Senator William M.
Cahier, chairman of the Senate c;>m
! mittee investigating; the coal situation,
1 that he would appeal to Congress'for
legislation effecting Federal control
and regulation of the coal industry has
reacted upon the coal operators and
?aroused a storm of protest from them.
The official organs of the coal trade
; have taken up the cudgels for the coal
! men and denounce the Senator's Bug
j gestion as radicalism. Meanwhile the
I Federal and local authorities are press
j Ing their investigation of alleged
I favori. Ism shown to certain local com?
panies in the distribution of anthracite
! by the large operators.
"There is no denying the fact," says
' an editorial In the current issue of The
Black Diamond, one of the trade
organ*-, "that the people would like to
seo lower coal prices. No one would
lii? to see the coal industry return to
normal more than the operators them*
i selves, but what the people do not
want to see is a continuance of gov
1 ernment policy which has prevailed
ever since the clouds of war settled
' down upon this land and which has
i been dangerously near the mark of
Sovietism.
"it has been very definitely settled
; at the polls that the great bulk of
; American citizens havo set themselves
agfinst all that pertains to radicalism.
In electing Senator Harding (hey have
? I u as chief executive a man who,
<.'.?.-'i? ,' the pre-election campaign made
fitquent jileas for 'more busin??ss in
I government and less government i.-i
I business.'
"If Senators Calder and Edge be?
lie*;-: they are going t?> bezahle to g?
before the newly elected Republican
< on?ress and introduce a bill which
stands diametrically opposed to the
principles upon which that Congress
has licen elected; they are going to
have their eyes opened.
''During the war period the people
submitted to many things in the name
of patriotism. Now that the war is
over and a new administration has
beer elected, Senators Calder and Edge
are tempting fate -..hen they propose
government control of the coal indus?
try or of any other industry for that
matter."
Under trie caption "Senator Calder,
Please Answer," this coal trade organ
propounds the following questions:
"Will any hoard of control that may
eventuate as the result of his bill guar?
antee an even flow of cars at the coal
mines ?
"Will the government undertake to
plac?! a stop loss on coa! prices, so that
when our supply is too low to make
coal production "at government prices
possible, the government will under?
write t h, e 1 o s s ?
"Does Senator Calder consider price
the vital thing in regard to coal pro?
duction and distribution?
'Will the government., as in the case
of the Railroad Administration, as?
sume all losses sustained by the coal
industry during the period of govern?
ment control?
"Does Senator Calder hold that in
legislating on coal prices without legis?
lating on prices of all other necessities,
i Congress would not be indulging in
; class legislation?
"Does Senator Calder, reviewing the
past Presidential election, see nothing
to warn him that the public has had
more than enough of government by
commission ?"
Armin W. Riley, head of the Depart?
ment of Justice flying squadron, said
that he had seen W. P. Wheeler, of
Oyster Bay, president of the Long
Island Coal Company, one of the con?
cerns alleged to have been favored
with a coal supply, according to the
complaints received by Mr. "rtiley and
District Attorney Harry E. Lewis, of
Brooklyn, and had been told that no in?
formation in regard to the Dong Island
company would be forthcoming unless
given under subp?na from the Federal
courts.

Bedtime Stones
The Real Chatterer
By Thornton W. Burgess
Some good folks want the u'orid to know it
While some, are good but. hate to shoiv it.
-?Chatterer the Red Squirrel.
Chatterer the Red Squirrel 1? noisy,
a mischief-maker, quick tempered, de?
lights to mako trouble for others ami
at times seems to have no good in him.
He seems to delight in appearing to be
as bud as possible. But, like a good
many other people, he has more good
than bad in him. He simply doesn't
like to show it. You will find many
people are like that.
, A^ tie watched the hunter with the
terrible gun slowly walking toward the
hickory tree where Rusty the. Fox
Squirrel probably was busy laying in
supplies for the winter, Chatterer lis?
tened to the tempter and kept his
tongue still. He knew that if that
hunter should find Rusty there it would
probably be the end of Rusty, and he
tried to make himself believe that he
would be triad. Yes, sir; he trie?! to
make himself believe that he hate?.!
Rusty and would be glad if he were
killed.
So he kept his tongue still ami
watched the hunter. In a few minutes
tho hunt? r would be where he could
see that hickory tree. Chatterer couhi
stund it no longer. Rusty might not
bo there, but if he was there something
dreadful would surely happen. Chat?
terer climbed up the nearest trep and
then hurried through the tree tops uf
ter that hunter und all the time his
tongue was going as fast as he could
make it go.
'Hunter: Hunter!" he shrieked.
"Everybody hide! Hunter with a ter?
rible gun! "
Now, everybody in the Green Forest
knows that warning cry of Chatterer's.
Even the hunter knew what it meant,
though of cours?? he didn't understand
whal Chatterer was saying.
"Confound that little red mischief
maker," growled the hunter. "He is
making such a noise he'll scare every?
thing within hearing."
By this time Chatterer had almost
caught up with the hunter and was in
a thick hemlock tree, taking great care
to keep the trunk of the tree' between
himself and the hunter. He caught a
glimpse of Rusty the Fox Squirrel run?
ning for a big tree.
"Run, Rusty, run!" he shrieked
"Run 'or your life! The hunter is right
here below me! Run! Rjn!"
Rusty did run. Th? hunter bit him
Then, hou: Chatterer did scold that
hunter.
and just as Rusty ?prang to the trunk
of a big tree and whisked around to the
other side the terrible gun roar.nl, and
Chatterer saw bits of bark fly from
that tree. Then, with ;. feeling of won?
derful relief, he siw what the hunter
failed to see, R :sty slip into a hole
high up in the trunk of that tree, But
his quick eyes saw, too, something that
troubled him. It seemed to him that
Rusty had moved slowly as if hurt.
"I'm glad I warned him. I'm glad I
warned him!" he kept saying over and
ever to himself. "I'm glad I warne.i
him, but 1 wish 1 had warned him soon?
er. I do hope ho isn't much hurt." That
was the real Chatterer. It wasn't the
real Chatterer at all who had listened
to the tempter and tried to belie-.,, he
hoped the hunter would get Rusty.
Then how Chatterer did scold that
hunter! My, my, my, how he did scold'
It is a pity that hunter didn't under- '
stand what Chatterer was saying. It:
certainly would have made "his ears
burn.

Americans Warned Not to
Land at Colombian Port
Passengers who arrived here yester?
day from ('entrai America, on the
United Fruit steamship Carrillo, rc
; ported that the people of Colombia,
I especially in the port of Cartagena,
were displaying an unfriendly attitude
toward Americans.
Martin L. Retry, a newspaper corre
I spondent of this city, said be and the
rest of the passengers were advised
by the, American consul and by Cap
, tain Livingston, of the Carrillo, to re
'? main aboard ship when the vessel en
tered the port.
"The consul sent word to our ves?
sel," said Mr. Petry, "cautioning us
against coming ashore. There had
been a fiesta and general celebration
going on for two days and the festivi?
ties were in full blast when we. got
there. The Colombians were celebrat
; ing the anniversary of their freedom
: from the yoke of Spain and had taken
1 occasion also to rejoice because the
' United States cruiser Cleveland had
! gone ashore in the harbor.
"She entered the port with a na?
tive pilot said to bo the best in the
service and under his guidance she
went ashore. The people seemed to
ascribe the grounding to the deliberate
act of the Colombian navigator and
they hailed him as a hero.
"My wife and 1 went ashore, never?
theless, and talked with some natives
who had come down to the waterfront
to seil souvenirs and later we went,
up into the city. The merchants ami
business people whose shops we visited
told us frankly that the people of ?
j Cartagena were glad the Cleveland had

Mild Winter Is Foreeast
Early Spring Al*o, Says Centrai1*
Scientific Department Chief
A mild winter and an early spring
for 1920-'21 are predicted in the annual
chart and weather forecast of Plimmon
H. Dudley, C. IX, Ph. D? made public
yesterday by the New York Central :
Railroad.
This chart and forecast prepared by
Dr. Dud.ey, who is head of the New
York Central scientific department, em?
body exhaustive compilation of the offi
cial weather records. They are pre?
pared primarily to govern the manu?
facture of steel for uso by tiie rail?
road in rails, wheels, tires, axles and
structures.
Dr. Dudley disclaims posing as a
weather prophet, his estimates being
based on the excess and deficiency
temperatures shown by the actual rec?
ords of the preceding years at various
localities.

for the benefiit of the First Magyar
Presbyterian Church at 2:'..'! Lust 116th

tudied at the University of
Berlin at the same time as the boy's
mother. His brief talk was prompted
by remarks o? the clergyrVian, who
introduced him as the boy prodigy of
Columbia.
"I am not the boy prodigy of Colum?
bia," the speaker explained, "because
a boy only nine years ola was ad?
mixed to the university."
"How many languages have you
studied?" asked the clergyman.
"That question is most appropriate?

Dr. Scut* der, of a Talen!'
cri New York Family,
Missionary to India, on: of my
earliest friends, by the goodness
of George H. Stuart, told me
this beginning with
"Baby Is King1'
I have a little fable, on this
wise: The birds all come to?
gether to elect a king. A
venerable old owl v/as the
Chairman. There v/as a great
rustling of wing:-; and much
chattering among the birds. At
last a long-legged crane got up
and offered this resolution:
"Resolved, that the bird which
can fly the highest shall be our
King."
That was unanimously carried.
Then all the birds, the eagles,
buzzards, hawks, hummingbirds,
bullfinches, blackbirds and the
rest Hashed up into tue sky.
One by one they became tired
and dropped clown again, hut
there was one that v/as not tired.
That was tito Eagle. lie flew
higher than all the others, lie
stopped, balanced himself in the
sun and said:
"Ladies and Gentlemen, I am
your King.''
Just then, lo and behold, a
little wren who had nestled on
the back of the 07?glc among his
big feathers and had a free pas?
sage all the way, a regular little
dead-head, sprang up and looked
down on the eagle and laughed
at him and said:
"Not a bit of it, Sir! I am
above you and I am King."
Dr. Scudder wound up by say?
ing our Babies are always Kings.
Out of some sober thinking
backward sixty years, we recall
the eagles of scholarship, wealth
and opportunity in the new
American Republic, w hose
fathers flew high to lift up and
endow their sons with the fer?
vent expectation that they v/ould
make America the best country
in the world, because of its birth
and heritage.
