Then I with the border apparently safe the de- > mand for the return of state troops has | become more and more pressing. Moreover.

Probably more decisive than all these 1 reasons, however, was the. belief that j the situations would never be solved one | way or another so long as Pershing i stayed, and that it would he best to j withdraw all American soldiers from the , stricken country in order to remove any I American or a nt i-Amerlcan issue. In i other words, there is a disposition to leave Mexico to work oits own salx'a tlon without interference and even to give farranaa ;i diplomatic victory in th<? hope th:it in some way a stable gov ernment may arise there With the last American soldier out of Mexico, the Mexican problem can be viewed in a new light.

Mr. Cory Tells Lite's Story In Effort to Establish Rescue ?

Cory, an exangelist who was once a "down-and-outer." will speak to the ministerial associa tion this afternoon. "A clean bed, a square meal and a straight gospel message," is the sort of service given at the mission in Parkersburg and it is proving a life saver to i In- niau who has slipped from his rung in the ladder or who . ???? r ex en had stepped up. .x li!e sh-epi-ii in sin ami not wii'.i oui tragedy was thai in story given ul himself | iv .Mr. Cory last night al the Thomson .Methodist.

He became a bless ing lo his family instead of a useless! hump in the path of their progress, lie repented oi ihe time that he ig nored the death of a little blue-<ye( baby, cursed and blasphemed wiiijc its funeral sermon was being preach ed, laughed like an idiol al the sight ol the dead child in the coffin. ..Later on another ,blue-eyed baby died.

The -5 lory last night held to a strain ing concentration the audience of iho handsome Island church. The task of starting and continuing a rescue station for men is his work in the xvorld as he sees it. If the min isters sanction such a thing he will in all probability be put at the ltead of it. Mission Would Be Godsend. The house would have 150 or 200 rooms, and would be a Godsend for the poor, the lonely, the depraved, homeless men of the Wheeling region. It would be a rented building al first. Cory wants to make up on earth for the sin he has wrought. Already he has induced 400 souls to follow Christ's standards. Mrs. Cory was present last night. She has stood by her husband in all the travail. >She will be- his sustain ing factor in his further work.

Is Being Forcibly Fed j I NEW YORK. Jan. L'S.? .Mrs. Ethel 'Byrne, who went on a "hunger strike" when she was sentenced last j Monday to thirty days in the peni jtentiarv at HI ark well's Island for spreading birth control propaganda, was described tonight by Commission er of Corrections Burden G. Lewis, as "progressing well under gentle, forcible feeding." A bulletin issued ! by the prison physicians character ized Mrs. Byrne's attitude as one of "general passivity" and it was said her condition both physically and j mentally, was good. "The 'hunger strike' is a hoax," de- ' dared Commissioner Lewis. "Mr<. Byrne is making no insistence. Forci ble feeding is an every day matter; with us. We constantly sot alcoho lics and drug addicts who must he forcibly fed. We are not permitted to allow prisoners to commit suicide. The only difference between Mrs. | Byrne and the others is that Mrs. Byrne has someone on the outside giving out statements about her nnJ us. | WHEELING MOLD TO ORGANIZE I'll" rocont!> elooteil fltrcoiors or" tie? i-liris M ij.l mid Foundry company ?*"?!!
