Muy 13.-'Resolu tions calling on both tho Democratic and Republican partios to adopt a plank declaring strongly for the en forcement of tho prohibition amend ment, and not to nominate any can didate for tho Presidency who is not known to bo committed to this pol icy, were adopted to-day by a rising voto of the Southern Baptist Con vention, in session boro. The resolution, offered by Rov. A. J. Harton, of Alexandria, Va., de clared that "Whereas, tho brewers and their paid attorneys are making every pos sible effort to circumvent and nullify the law by making beor and wino tho entering wedge for the roturn of tho saloons; and "Whereas, the said browors and their paid attornoys claim that there is a reaction in the public mind against prohibition: Therefore bo lt "Resolved, by the Southern Rap list Convention, in annual session as sembled In Washington, D. C., May 12-17, 1920, with 7,000 messengers enrolled, representing a constituency of 3,000,000 white Baptists, that we hereby respectfully and earnestly petition each of tho two groat poli tical partjes of the United Statos to put a plank in their respective plat forms, to bo adopted at thoir ap proaching national conventions, de claring strongly for tho maintenance and enforcement of the eightoenth amendment to the Constitution and of tho law enacted for Its enforce ment. "Socond. That we also petition said parties not to nomlnnto any man for the Presidency who is not known | to be committed to this policy of law 1 and order. "Third. That the committee on temperance and social service bo, and is horeby, authorized and instructed to communicate a copy of these res- 1 olutions to tho chairmen of tho ex- ; ecutlve committees of each of the two great parties." A Plea for Unity. ? A plea for unity of Northern and Southern Baptists was made by E. M. Potent, of Boston, Mass., secre tary of the laymen's work of the! Northern Baptist Convention. Ho. declared that Baptists in the North j and South wore ono in fundamental I issues, and should get together. E. C. Miller, of New York, told tho j convention that he was ready per sonally to provide for two medical Baptist missionaries if they would begin work at once in Jerusalem. Necessity for religious education in tho South was emphasized by Dr. 10. J. Dillard, of Birmingham, Ala., secretary of the education board. He advocated a doublo education sys tem, tho State schools to provide the genoral education and church schools to provide the religious loaming. "Tho ono big business which con fronts tho South," Dr. John E.White,1 of Anderson, S. C., told tho conven tion, "is to lift tho black pall of il literacy. Tho war has shown that illltoracy in tho South is greater than was over dreamed of, and most of tho illiteracy is Baptist illiteracy. "It is the part of the convention to lift up those people from their Ig norance. God is going to put upon . His churches tho responsibility of His church members being able to read His Word." Dr. J. I?\ Love, of Richmond. Va., secretary of the foerign mission board, reported that tho total re ceipts for foreign missions for the past year were $2,335,249-twice aa much as the receipts for this cause as in any single year before.

All that timo I spent a great deal of money seeking to re store my good health, but 1 failed to get the relief I sought. "Tho advertisements of Tanlac caught my attention, and I began taking it. .My general condition was improved, and the remedy gave me roliof from my troubles in a general way. I took eleven bottles of Tanlac, and if it had not helped mo I would not have taken so much." Tanlac, the master medicino, is sold exclusively by Boll's Drug Storo, Walhalla; J. C.

MIDDLE OE MAY SEES A TIE-UP In Shipping Circles, Though Officials Say Conditions Improving. Washington, .May 13.-Congestion of freight in tho principal railroad terminals, probably the worst since the hard winter of 1917, is begin ning to be felt in business and com merce all over the country. Appeals for relief pouring into Washington to the interstate com merce commission, the railroad ad ministration and to Congress indi cate that the big railway gateways are choked with thousands of loaded freight cars unable to move because of the shortage of men and motive power. Although the situation has been showing local effects for the last two weeks, it now is being shown in its nation-wide aspects, and the ap peals for relief coming to Washing ton contain _ predictions that, unless the jam is broken, lt will be reflected more than ever in decreased produc tion, slowing down of Industry and probably a tremendous labor turn over. 288,000 Cors Tied Up. Latest reports compiled here by the committee on car sorvico, Ameri can Railroad Association, whose principal duty is to see that cars are supplied to sections in greatest need of thom, and to keep thom moving, show 235,000 cars tied up or de layed in transit. Of this number 85, 000 aro at junctions, with no labor to transfer thom. On April 16 the totnl number of cars tied up was 288,000. Much of this was attributed by railroad people to tho recent strike. There Io pressing need to-day for 82,'111 cars to tako caro of the most urgent demands, railroad men de claro, although they say this shows a reduction of approximately 10,000 over April roport. Illustrating tho Imperative demand for coal, tho car sor leo committee was advised to-day that there was no coal at Saginaw Mich., for the Saginaw Gas Works, and orders were immediately issued to get coal there in a hurry. Other cities sent similar appeals. Coal and Foodstuffs. The most serious conditions pre vail at tho gateways, blocked as sel dom before with thousands of cars, mostly loaded with coal and food stuffs. A' )r spending half of tho day at the depliono, W. C. Kendall, hoad of tho car service committee, an nounced to-night that, while tho sit uation was bad, it was not nearly so acute as ten days ago. "Thoro ls moro noise-moro of a concentrated kick," ho said, "but tho actual tio-up ls loss. But thoro is an improvement. Last week's fig ures Indicated a coal production of ?lino million tons." The big clamor, Mr. Kendall said, s for coal. Commercial slocks have aeon depleted, and with the railroad surplus exhausted the roads had to mnflscate lt. Now they are trying to fill the gaps. Demand for cars for grain from i the Northwest and for refrigerator j jars for California and the southeast territory came next, he said, and ulded to this was the ever-present lifilculty of moving back tho emp ties. All reports' show that the tie-up svas forced to a head by tho .recent railroad strike, not yet ended, ac cording to railroad officials. At the time of. the "unauthorized" walkout )f trainmen and switchmen the roads were lUerally swamped with busi ness. Trying to meet this with de pleted equipment and with industries running at full tilt, tho strike, rail road men asserted, was like the straw that broke the cam?l's back. No figures are available at Fed ?ration of Labor headquarters as to the actual number of employees still on strike.
