"When you are told that the President of the United States, who by the most sacred trust of our nation is the President of all the people, a man of your own blood and upbringing, has sat in the White House for the last three years of your misfortune without troubling to know your burdens, without heartaches over your miseries and casualties; without summoning every avenue of skilful assistance irrespective of party or view, without using every ounce of his strength and straining his every nerve to protect and help, without using every possible agency of democracy that would bring aid, without putting aside persona! ambition and humbling his pride of opinion if that would serve then I say to you that such statements are deliberate, intolerable falsehoods." Woman Endurance Run Driver Nears Halfway Mark of Test Telle Glyndon, passing the fortieth hour of her 100-hour endurance drivinp test at noon today, found weather somewhat chilly but thus far fatigue has not caught up with her. The internationally known woman driver will, according to her schedule, terminate the long vigil at the wheel 8 ocloek next Saturday night.

The car is fueled twice a day, once at 9 o'clock in Hie evening and again during the forenoon. During these periods the car is given general inspection. Taking advantage of the respite at the wheel she els out of the car, stretches and sometimes walks a short distance. Toward the end of the test, however, she is quite likely to take advantage of the 0 minutes to half an hour of rest and enjoy a brief snooze.

Cavanagh. I GOOD COFFEE Is always insisted upon by the endurance driver -Atxr Hope to Secure Several Millions to Further Medical Missionary Work. HOPE VOICED BY ELDER Chairman of Executive Board, Now Here( Describes Prog- ress Already Made. The creation of a foundation fund of several millions of dollars to be used for the development of a medical ministry college is to be presented to the fall council of the Advent-ist general conference to be held at the Tabernacle in Battle Creek October 18 to 26. Elder A.

G. Daniels, chairman of the executive board of the College of Medical Evangelists, will submit the plan, which was outlined by the executive board members, to be known as a Memorial Foundation. The College of Medical Evangelists is located in California. Within its jurisdiction Is Loma Linda Medical college, Loma and White Memorial hospital, Los i Angeles. Three Millions Already Given Approximately $3,000,000 has already been given toward such a fund, in property values in California.

The fund will support a medical ministry college to fit the youth of the denomination to carry on both medical and evangelistic work in foreign fields. Elder Daniels said this morning that during the last three years the advancement of the foreign mission work of the Adventist denomination has been greater than in all its previous history. Scientific methods of treating disease and, the Christian spirit in which such have been given, have gained the interest of men of wealth and those high in governments of foreign countries. They have built, fitted up, and donated modern hospitals with all necessary departments and have asked for Christian doctors and nurses. The denomination is lacking in trained workers for these fields and means of supporting them.

This need the foundation will fill. Elder Daniels believes. Medical evangelists who have done pioneer medical work in various countries are responsible for this newly created Interest, he says. Abyssinia Has Hospital emperor of Abyssinia has built a large modern hospital in his capital and requests that it be fit-' ted up with doctors and nurses from the denominational medical schools. He gave gifts of $100,000 to carry on the work.

Wayne. Ind. yesterday, denounced as "deliberate, intolerable falsehoods" what he said were widespread personal misrepresentations promulgated in the midwest in the last few weeks. Surrounded by a crowd that pushed and shoved toward him as he spoke over the radio from the rear platform of his special train, the President said he believed sportsmanship and statesmanship called for the elimination of harsh personalities between opponents. The speech was the chief executive's first since he left Des Moines last night, where he said a national victory had been achieved over economic difficulties and declared that enactment of the democratic program would "end hope of re covery." Without naming' the "opponents" to whom he referred, the President told his Fort Wayne audience: "On this journey, however, I have received a multitude of reports as to the widespread personal misrepresentations which have been promulgated in the midwest In the last few weeks.

I regret that the character of these personalities necessitates a direct word from me. "I shall say now the only harsh word that I have uttered in public J-A IE Inspectors Find That City Has Lower Average than Other Michigan Places. JUNIOR HIGH CONDEMNED Battle Creek's mercantile establishments and public buildings are safer from the point of fire hazards than those in the average Michigan city. Has High Average Fifty field executives for stock fire insurance companies, members of the Michigan Fire Prevention association, who are inspecting buildings in the city for fire hazards went through 132 yesterday and found 91 with defects which are classed as fire hazards. This is an average of about 75 percent which is lower than that found in most cities in the state where they have conducted similar inspections.

As in most other places the larger number of defects are those in electrical wiring, the men finding that the old type of wiring in many of the buildings is more or less out of Condemn School The findings of the men at Central junior high school made them suggest the brdlding be vacated. This is the plan of the board of education and on completion of the new W. K. Kellogg auditorium and junior high school, students will be moved into that building. The piiblic and parochial schools held assemblies either yesterday or today with members of the state fire prevention assocation as speakers.

The schools were also inspected for fire hazards and fire drills held. Southwestern junior high's 1.025 students vacated the building in 90 seconds. Verona's 645 students were out of the building in 45 seconds and Urbandale's 408 vacated in 40 seconds. These schools made the best records in yesterday's drills.

Mustard devoted some time to the explanation of the extra two dollar tax for poor relief that was transferred from the winter state, county and school tax to the city tax last summer because the county board of supervisors voted to transfer the cost of government poor re-ficf from the county to the city and townships. "This poor relief tax always has been charged against the property owners and paid with the taxes, the only difference being that this year It was paid in the summer instead of in the winter," he said. To illustrate his point, he produced tax receipts. He also explained that the Wel fare Fund carries on a work that could not be done by the city government that the tax raised money goes to support the very aged and helpless, while the Welfare Fund agencies endeavor to assist the fam ilies to become independent and sell supporting. "During the last year," he said.

"the Welfare Fund spent thousands of dollars for milk for children under two years of age and for invalids. Milk was distributed through the various agencies in the welfare organization. For invalids, whose life depended on special diets, the Welfare Fund spent $3,000, and was used to buy shoes for school children, who otherwise could not have been In school. The fund also spends $6,000 for clothing, $10,000 for fuel and light, and more than $15,000 goes to hospitals to care for people in need of emergency operations and medical attention. "Your welfare orear.ization is organized to function efficiently and economically." he said, "and it is not dependent on politics."
