THE ARIZONA REPUBLICAN, THURSDAY MORNING, APRIL 14, 1921, PAGE FIVE UHURCI I TO OBSERVE 400TH OF LUTHER'S T RIAL Together with many churches throughout the country, the local Zion KvanRelical Lutheran church next Sunday morninff will observe th(! 400th anniversary of the Diet at Worms on -which occasion Luther re-"-,od to comply with the orders of the emperor to recant, taking the stand that his religious convictions and teachings were a matter of con science with which no man, however exalted, had a right to Interfere, Rnd HYDER PUTS ON A REAL SALE I i-M.rfi .Mr I, JOHN HYDER Hyder'8 Store eloped all day Thursday to arrange our wonder ful etoclc of spring merchandise which goes on sale, starting Fri day morning at 9 o'clock. We haven't the words to tell you about the meaning of this big sale which will represent such a ter rific cut in prices that you can only realize by coming in and see ing for yourself. We are not hid ing behind false colors, and are frank to admit that our only ex cuse for starting the season with such a price-cutting sale is that we are absolutely forced to raise the cash and must do it immediately. This sale knocks all to pieces our many years of merchandising principle which has kept us from putting on sales of one sort or an other as we fully believe that the public's confidence has been mis treated in so many instances. This will of course come as a big sur prise to the merchants that are in the same line of business because this Is the first time we have started a proposition of this kind In Phoenix. Necessity is the mother of invention and with us there is no recourse as we must raise the money to meet our legiti mate obligations. In order t raise this money nowadays we ar. forced to sell at a loss and put our high grade merchandise at prices so low that do one in the market for anything ia men's wearables can afford to pass up this oppor tunity. '.... Wo will be closed all day today arranging our stock of merchan dise, putting on extra salesmen, and our big ad in tonight and to morrow's .papers will tell more than words can say that we are in earnest and that our entire stock of high grade merchandise ls..lo be sold at prices never dreamed of. Remember, our prices had al ready been adjusted when we took our losses. JOHN 'HYDER. that the Scriptures, as the word of. God, were the only safe guide in faith and doctrine. This event is being commemorated, not only because of its influence upon modern religious liberty, but also because it was one of the most important incidents in the history of the Keformation. l'astor Krey, in plannng a special sermon for next Sunday in commemoration of the event. The following account of Luther's trial reveals some of its dramatic phases: "iiveryone's dinner got cold in Worms when Martin Luther, - out lawed, came to answer for himself at the first Diet of Emperor Charles V, held in that city in 1521. . The summons reached Luther Just before Easter, and he came to the Diet immediately after that festival. All the way he was greeted by throngs of admiring people. Though he had a safe-conduct, guaranteeing him protection until he should re turn, many feared he would be assas sinated in Worms. But he went bravely on, saying: 'If there were as many devils in Worms as there are tiles on the roofs I would have no fear.' Th. TrlaJ "It was late in the afternoon and darkness was falling. Luther's books were piled on a table before the em peror. The representatives of the church were not present, unwilling to countenance or hear the heretic in his own defense. He was asked if the books were his. When the titles were read he acknowledged them. Asked if he would repudiate his ideas as they appeared in the books. he requested, time for consideration "The next day he was asked, "Will you recant what you have written here.' Luther replied: There are three groups of my writings. One group, the first, consists of those things which all hold to be true. 1 could not repudiate them without be ing the only one to deny them. The second group attacks the tyranny and corruption of the Pope, which are known to all. The third group at tacks individuals. In this group I have been unnecessarily severe. But to deny them would seem to condone the abuses these men uphold. therefore could not repudiate them. either. This answer did not satisfy, and the emperor asked for a plain answer. Luther replied; Lnless am convicted by Scripture or by right reason (for I trust neither in popes nor councils since they have often erred and contradicted themselves), unless I am thus convinced I am bound by the texts of the Bible, my conscience is captive to the word of God, I neither can nor will recant anything, since It is neither right or safe to act against conscience. God help me. Amen.' Uproar and confusion followed. I The emperor adjourned the session j as Luther said: I cannot do other wise. Here I stand. God help me.' "That was the stand which affected modern religious liberty and through it to a large degree modem demo cratic ideals. Individual democratic freedom in and under God's word Is the hope of national and international progress." o Robins Take Opener From Boston Braves BOSTON, April 13.

TO ATTEND HEARING OF R. R. RATE CASE Amos A. Eetts ofthe corporation commission will represent the state when the proposed increase in intra state rates comes up for oral argu ment before, the interstate commerce commission in Washington on April 15. Testimony was taken in Phoenix several months ago at which time the corporation commission held that the interstate commerce commission had no Jurisdiction in raising rates of railroads within the state of Arizona. The state commission previously had denied the increase to the carriers. Immediately after his return from Washington, Mr. Betts, with Commis sioner Loren Vaughn and Ben Fergu son, engineer to the commission, will leave for Pueblo to make an investi gation of the Baker Steam Motor Car company. The company incor porated in 1!17, and two years ago ap plied for a permit to sell stocK in tnis state. The application was denied. "The company has so much confi dence in its plant that it has invited an inspection by the corporation com mission and will pay all expenses in connection with the investigation," said Mr. Vaughn, who added that the inspection of the plant and records of the company would determine whether the application will be granted to do business In Arizona. lessonISds in INCREASE STAN OIL'S ASSESSMENT That there will be a material in crease in the 1921 assessment of the Standard Oil company over that of 1920 was the statement made yester day by Charles R. Howe, chairman of the state tax eommi-ssion. Mr. Howe said that there would be u raise of at least J300.OO0 over last year. H. J. Whitely of San Francisco, tax agent of the Standard Oil company, met with the tax commission in Ixis Angeles last week when he made the returns for each county which 'ie sub mitted to the commission for ap proval. Changes in land valuations, trucks and automobiles will be responsible for the material increase, said Mr. Howe. The company's tax assessment for 1920 was over $1 300,000 according to Mr. Howe. The company does busi ness in every county in the state with the exception of Apache county. While in California the commission also took up the matter of returns with officials of the Atchison, Topeka and Santa X e railroad. Changes in the report of the railroad also wiii be made with particular reference to operative and nojj-operative lands.
