Day after a hearing this morning on a charge of Interfering with a religious meet- the complaint having been filed by the Rev.

A. L. Shoemaker, Pentecostal pastor. The warrant Issued on the complaint was served on Green last evening after he had visited the church to protest at the continuance of an orchestra rehearsal Green then was released on his prom Ise to appear In court today. Green's visit to the church broke up completely the orchestra rehearsal.

Leon Johnson, the leader of the orchestral told a reporter today that Green's protest was In abusive word- Ing and that before the Rev, shoemaker Induced him to leave the building one of the girls in the orchestra had fainted and others were driven to tears. The musicians were so upset over the incident, he said, that further practice by the orchestra had to be 'abandoned. It was Indicated that the protest which broke up the rehearsal was made about 8:30 p. m. The Rev.

Shoemaker stated that It Was not the first visit of Green to the church, that on two previous occasions his protests had disturbed tegular With the third visit tho Rev. Shoemaker said, he felt that some action was necessary, and after Green had been drawn outside, an officer was called.

Asked by City Attorney Lledell, "What do they sing and Breach?" Laux responded: "Yes, and shout and make a disturbance. You can hear them six or seven blocks." The Rev. Shoemaker in testifying indicated that the visit of Green to interrupt the orchestra rehearsal was nothing to him personally, but that it was not the first time that such a visit had occurred, arid that he objected to the church services being interfered with.

He said that the church program in addition to Sunday services comprised two prayer cervices during the week, one on 'Wednesday and one on Friday evenings which included Scripture readings, testimonies and prayers; and that there also were orchestra rehearsals on Monday and Thursday nights. The orchestra sessions, he said, never lasted later than 10 p. m. Asked by the City Attorney if there were shouting, the Rev. Shoemaker replied that he had never heard any.

But he qualified this statement by adding that sometimes someone got happy and shouted a that was only on rare occasions. The leader of the orchestra, Leon substantiated the pastor's state- jpnents that there were no protracted orchestra meetings, saying he could none later than 9:30 p. m. summing up the case for the City Attorney Lledell de- the court that the evidence churoh was carrying on reJgious observances according to its ritual and there nothing unusual In Its services; further, it was shown the orchestra had not been re- rehearsing later than 10 On the other hand, he said, it had' been clearly shown that the defendant had gone in during a service and demanded that it stop.

But meantime, there is bustling activity at the present city quarters in the Spalding building where officials and clerks are getting ready for the transfer of city records and furnishings to the new headquarters. Much of the activity has to do with cleaning and dusting files and books that are to be moved. Corrugated paper boxes In which furnishings and supplies for the new building were shipped have been saved and taken to the Spalding building and these are being used In packing the books and records to be moved.

The court clerk, Miss Margaret Callahan, has secured some extra janitorial help to do this work, ind, garbed in a kitchen apron, she has been busy for the last three days superintending the cleaning program, which is no small task for the record books are many and the dust is thick. One of the problems before City Clerk Hemphill is what old records may be discarded and what must be saved. Some of the records that must be retained are practically never referred to, and these he is laving placed in stout wooden boxes.

They will be placed In a storage room, the new building, as it appears unnecessary that they be filed.

'Thompson' Democratic nominee for governor, told the Greene county club of Chicago last night that the main issue in the gubernatorial campaign is the choice of a governor that will give the best business administration. It makes little difference to the people, he said, whether a Democrat or Republican Is elected governor because he has nothing to do with the tariff or with International relations, but Is chosen to run the business of the state.
