BERTELLI, Universal Service Correspondent. Paris, Jan. 21.—The great rail road strike in the Ruhr and Rhineland is on. One half of all the railroaders in the occupied territories went on strike at 5 o’clock Sunday night. The bal ance of them will leave their posts Monday. By Monday night, it is predict ed the railroads will be tied up completely and the French will he unable to move the coal they are taking from the requisitioned mines. The famous Paris-Berlin express was stopped at Dortmouth Sunday evening when the engine and train crews quit. Other Strikes Under Way. In addition to the rail strike which is counted on by the Germans to-par alyze, besides the railroads, a large part of the traffic on the canal sys tems fed by the railroads, strikes are now on in 18 mines and many fac tories. All the banks at Essen, Dortmund and Bochum have been closed and have announced they will remain closed until the French release their grasp on the Ruhr branches of the Reiehbank, seized during the week. The reports received by the French press indicate that a general strike is likely to be In effect by Tuesday. Streets in Cities Guarded. Trench machine guns have been strung across the streets of Essen and Dortmund to prevent the striking railroaders and miners from, staging hostile demonstrations. Thus far, no serious incidents are reported. Czecho-Slovakian and Italian la borers en route to the Ruhr to take the place of strikers, were halted at the German frontiers. They will be detoured and are expected to go to work under supervision of the French Monday. Referring to this importation of outside labor, Sunday night’s Intran slgeant says: "This is the commencement of the de-Prussianization of the Ruhr." . Sunday evening’s socialist papers attack the morning Matin for saying: "It is possible that the war will be reopened." Premier Poincare and Minister of Reparations Barthou Sunday morn ing completed the new FYench plan for a moratorium providing Germany obtains a loan of 3,000,000,000 gold marks. Of that amount 500,000,000 marks would be used to stabilize the exchange rate of the mark and the remainder would be applied on rep arations to France. Under the plan Krnnce would retain her hold on the Ruhr until all the conditions were fulfilled. The French communist party at their meeting Sunday afternoon here voted in favor of the order from the Third Internationale at Moscow for a general strike throughout Europe on January 31, as a protest against the French invasion of the Ruhr. A By H. W. Smith, Universal Service Special Correspondent. (Copyright, 1923, by Universal Service) Essen, Jan. 21.—A life and death struggle is developing for possession of the Ruhr, though for the most part the struggle still remains be neath the surface. On the one side is the great de termination never to release the stranglehold on the Ruhr until the French have been paid their claims in full. On the other side is the con viction that the real aim of the in vaders is to dismember Germany and hold In perpetuity what is claimed as security only. The struggle may break out into open conflict at any moment. Soldiers Man Trains. Apparently for no other purpose than to demonstrate that they are independent of the Germans, so far as maintaining operations in the Ruhr are concerned, the French ran two trains to Essen from Dort mund Sunday afternoon. The trains were manned by the military and claimed to have made & speed of 75 kilometers per hour (about 45 miles). The officer in charge of railway operations told me Sunday afternoon that he had made preparations to fill all the places of German railway men who might strike throughout the Ruhr and that he would be able to carry provisions for the French. 1 asked him how Dortmund would get its food, and he answered: “We cannot be expected to send food to them.” The Paris-Berlin express was di verted Sunday at Cologne. The rail road station at Dortmund was closed Sunday. A serious situation is re ported at Dortmund where the whole railroad staff went out as the result of an order by the French to shift back to the Ruhr empty cars diverted by the Germans. 444 4-4 4444444444444^ 4 DIES AGED 125. 4 4 4 4 Atlanta, Ga., Jan. 20 (A.

The church has the alternative of dropping the matter or trying the rector on a charge of heresy. “Do you want freedom or do you want authority?” Rev. Grant cried. “If you want freedom, have it! “Do you want an American church? If so, have it! "Do you want an unshackled clergy? If so, have It! “Do you want the truth as the min ister sees it, or do you want him to conceal the truth? If you want the, truth, have it! “Do you want the church to be si lenced by sinister financial Inter ests? Big Crowd Applauds. “Do you want to keep young men out of the church? When you ask your sons to go to church with you, do you want them to reply: ‘Please, dad, don’t ask me to listen to such bunk?’ ’’ This was met by prolonged ap plause from the congregation that packed the fashionable edifice to the walls, jammed the doorways and ex tended to the sidewalk outside. The rector reiterated that the be lief in the Virgin birth of Christ was not a tenet of the early Christian church but was the result of the teaching of theologians who lived long after the days of Christ and his apostles. He said also that Christ Himself defied the doctrine that he was equal with God and to prove It he cited these passages: “My Father is greater than I”, and “None is good but God.’’ “I prefer to get my views of what Christ taught from his associates rather than from theologians.’’ the rector said. “I prefer St. Matthew to Saint Augustine. Now, the first three gospels clearly state that Jesus was not equal with God.” The reading of the second lesson in the service ended: “Blessed arc ye when men shall revile you for so per secuted they the prophets.” ' Fiancee In Congregation. Mrs. Rita D. Acosta Lydig, former wife of W. E. D. Stokes and of Capt. Philip Lydig, whose engagement to tlie Rev. Dr. Grant was announced last April, wras in the congregation. One of the rector’s former assaults against the rules of the orthodox church was delivered recently w'hen Bishop Manning failed to give his consent to the wedding because Mrs. Lydig was twice' a divorcee. Mrs. Lydig is wealthy, attractive and so cially prominent. While the Rev. Dr. Grant did not say wrhat his future course will be, he intimated he would be guided by his conscience, defining it as a more infallible guide than the suasiok, of ecclesiastic attitudes and traditions. He referred to his fight for liber ality, saying: "Pain is the cal! of a wounded spot for new blood. Liberal pains are the cry for new blood in politics, religion an economics.” “Before you erect a new building you must tear away the old,” he said, and added: "Well, it’s the same with ideas.” Criticizes “Dead Ideas.” He spoke of the evolution of the mind as well as the body, saying Providence protects a man in his ev olution. "It is better to have a living idea that is part of the day,” he said, “than a full dress idea that is dead.” “We must have the fullest freedom of speech so when we hear ideas we can put them to the test of reason.” He said that to suppress ideas is to “blackjack the soul.” DISORDERS IN THRACE HALTTRAIN SERVICE Universal Service.
