Ask for editor against preacher >? ? * i>fs Into Controversy on How Rosen . wald Made His Money. ????? ?? * (Monroe Enquirer) # Rev M P. Ham, a well-known evangelist is holding a meeting at Blizabeth City. A few days ago the preacher took upon himself to say ' e very disparaging things of Ju lius Rosenwald, th? Chicago Jew phi lanthropist. and who has assisted wanv of the poorer school districts, throughout the Southern States, pai - licularly the negroes, to secure better buildings. W. O. Sanders, editor of the Elizabeth City Independent, took up the gage and called the evange ls hand, and in part says of him: "In his sermon at the tarebnacle last Friday night, Mr. Ham read rap . j^lv and with Vehemence a lot ot stuff purporting to be evidence that ?Mr Rosenwald is a party to the vrce ring in Chicago. He charged spec ially that Mr. Rosenwald had aided the'acquirement of property by ne groes in the vice district of Chieago and had headed a commission which imported no vice in this district, al though subsequent investigation dis posed it as teeming with dens, and Ayes in which unspeakable evils were taught and practiced.' He then read reports of grand juries and ?ewspaper clippings about vice con ations in Chicago, as if Julius Ros pawald were responsible for all the vice in Chicago. At the conclusion ?f the sermon he said that 'any who will whitewash a gang like that m order to prove a preacher a liar ?oeds praying for and needs it bad. "By indirection aad innuendo Haip, >? order to bolstei^up his damnable theology, sows tho impression in the *inds of thousands of his hearers that Julius Rosenwald is the head ol a gang in Chicago that maintains kindreds of negro dives in which white girls are enslaved and made t# submit their bodies to negro men, aid that Rosenwald is a demon wno reaps profits from this infamous busi ?ess. ?11am says I should hnve the praw ns (he means the condemnation) o all God's people for 'trying to white wash a gang like that in or(^er 0 ?akr a preacher out a liar. H^"1 knows that I have not tried to whi e wash any vice gang in Chicago, an I ask a fair minded public to say what they think of a preacher liKe Earn who would defame the name o a good and innocent man like Rosen wald, because he happens to be a Jew, and then damn to hell a news paper men who musters up enoug ??urage out of the honesty of us k?ai t to call for fair play '.' 1(>ask y 11 what do you think of Ham . "Now it is not easy for me to pi<> ?i?ce evidence quickly in reply to M . ?am and I cannot satisfy the inte licence of the community with sue.. Bimsy evidence as Mr. Ham can use aa<] get away with; with his gifts 0 ? ratory, his audacity and his cun aing developed through years or trai - >?g first as a lawyer, then as a trav eling salesman, and now as an evan gelist, he can cram almost anytnn g *>wn the throata of the masse and t-et away with it.

"1 with all those who say that Mr. Ham is going to do a lot Of good in the community, in fetch ? nglup a lot of cheap, dirty, evil minqed, vulgar and vicious little sin ners;. and making them good for a Season. Thoughtful men, too, who \vill disagree with much of his bunk wil also limi much food for healthy rejection iii some of his sermons; but I state it is my hpnest opinion, based upon my own human expe rience ami my knowledge o? human nature, that most of the good that Ham does will not be permanent, and that the harm he does will last indefinitely if not counteracted by a lot of sober thought before it is too late. Instead of cementing t,he rela tionships of people in this commu nity, he will engender bitterness for twenty years. "Instead of reforming all the back sliders and hypocrites in the church* es, he will fill the churches so full of back-sliders and hypocrites that the churches will be in worse repute than when he found them. "I have heard him preach nothing but intolerance, hatred and contempt for all who have honest differences of opinion. "He will make converts, yes?and he will take bootleggers, harlots, drunkards, bums, dead beats, and ig noramuses, and make them the lead ing christians in our town, and in vest them with authority to lord it over everybody who^ stands in their fanatical way. Mark my words. "He pretends to have come to cure sick churches, and he will leave the Churches incurably sick, alienating the interest and support of many of the most thoughtful and upright in your town. "He pretends to come to save the youth #f the town, and when the emotionalism has subsided and youth is given au opportunity to think for itself, the youth of the town will be thoroughly ashamed of Ham and his works, and will drift farther than ever away from the church. You can'i-ithn flam modern youth for long. "Mr. Hani has been' ruthless and uncompromising in his condemnation of all knowledge and all science. "All invention, all art, all industry, all culture, all human progress, is, according to Ham, but the work of the devil. "The science that lights his taber nacle; the science that affords trans portation to the thousands who come to' hear his sermons; the science" that made possible the printing and distribution of the book from which he preaches; the science that enables him to wear a different suit of correctly tailored clothes at every meeting he holds; the science that enables him to live in luxury; the science that feeds him, is but the work of the Devil, the enemy of God, to be hated by all christians, accord ing to his statements. "If Ham had his way, civilization would be but a multitude of morons, sitting on the shores of Time, twad dling their thumbs, singing hallelu jahs to a bloody Jehovah, and wait ing for ravens to feed them. Ten | thousands Kamsays couldn't collect enough out of such a* bunch to pay for one of Ham's tabernacles." f Evangelist Ham doubtless will | come back at Mr. Saunders if he | can find meaner things in' his vo I cabulary to say about the editor than he received at his pen. Otherwise, 1 the preacher will pass the matter up "in silent contempt." Two Killed In Auto Wreck. I Sumter, Nov. 20.?Two men, J. W | Campbell, white, and W. L. Lowery\ j negro, were killed when the automo bile in which they were riding struck I a telegraph pole near Rhodes Siding, two miles east of Mayesville, Lee county, about 12.15 this morning. No one saw the accident but the men were found lying partly under the car, the white man with his head crushed lying on top of the negro, who apparently had sustained only bruises and cuts. Campbell is said to be a collector for the Home Furni ture company of Florence, and Low ery also lived in Florence. It is stated that the two men had started from Florence for Columbia. The wreck occurred where the old road between Sumter and Florence j turned and crossed the A. C. L. rail road tracks but the new road goes^ straight ahead. The drlr#r evidently) tried to turn into the old road and his car skidded and the accident oc curred. A Mr. Jordan, of this city, who was a short distance behind the other car, found both men dead upon his arrival and immediately went on to Mayesville where he reported the accident to the police. Headed by W. K. Magill of Ches ter about twenty alumni of Clemson College held a meeting in Columbia Wednesday night to talk over the troubles at Clemson and to straighten out the situation there. The most interesting feature of the meeting was the passage of a resolution pro viding that no .jjublicity be given out relative to the proceedings of the meeting.
