?ODY OF SOUTHERN BAPTISTS
Cull? for Prohibition Plunk in tho
Platforms of Both Purtles.
Washington. 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.

tles for His Ills.

Tanbie Gavo Him Relief, and libs
General Condition Was Im
proved, Ho Says.
"Tanlac ls a good medicino and
has dono somo wonderful things for
sufferers. It is particularly good for
Btcmach troubles, as I know from
having taken Tanlac. Other mem
bers of my family also are taking
Tanlac." In these words W. M. My
ers, a woll known furniture dealer,
of 1305 South Main street, Ander
son, S. C., summed up his high opin
ion of the merits of this remarkably
fine remedy.
"I suffered from kidney trouble,
and I also was bothored with liver
and bladder ailments and constipa
tion. I suffered lon? and severely
with a pain in my left side, which
battled all the treatments I ever tried
for it, and 1 oven had to undergo an
operation. 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,

"Mr Jones prosonts his compli
ments to Mr Smith and asks if ho
will kindly shoot his dog, ns ho keeps
Mr. Jones and his family awake?"
Whereupon Mr. Smith roturnod
tho following soft answer:
"Mr Smith presents his compli
ments to Mr Jones and begs to In
form tho latter that ho will bo vory
glad to shoot his dog if Mr. Jones
will poison his daughter and burn
her piano."

of the high relative value built into ail Good

You can well do so because you can secure
in* the smaller Goodyear Tires the results of
such skill and care as have made Goodyear
Tires the preferred equipment on the high
est priced automobiles of the day.
You can well do so because these smaller
Goodyear Tires are easy to obtain, being
produced at the rate of approximately 20,000
a day, and because their first cost usually is
as low or lower than that of other tires in
the same types and sizes?

pany. The accident was a most hor
rible one, the littlo hoy's body being
sevovoly mangled.and it cast a gloom

behind one of them, directly under
the feet of the oil wagon team.
He was first struck down by the
feet of tho mules and then run over
by tho wheel of tho big tank wagon.
His littlo body was broken and
crushed, and attending physicians
stato that his death was almost in*
stantaneous.

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. Representatives of the
Trainmen's Brotherhood said they
had no estimates, although they did
