CONVICTS FOR ROAD WORK Bill Allowing Use of Federal Prisoners Debated.

Anthony, Livingston and ere Strongly Support Measure. Hay, Slayden and Others Op. pose No- Vote Reached by the House. By John Corrigan, Washington, March -(Special.) Good toads building as settled ernment' policy and, the use of prisoners in United States: penfentiaries for this purpose, as an econonile and humanitarian measure were discussed by the house of representatives for several hours this afternoon. 'The wisdom of such a policy was strongly urged by the friends of the measure, although Its opponents were equally determined, in opposition and in the minority the number of speakers may be taken as an index.

No vote was reached and the question went over until Wednesday of next week, when the debate will be resumed. The question came up on a bill of Representative Anthony, of Kansas, to the military prisoners at Fort Leavenworth and -the prisoners in the States penitentiary at that United, construct a military road from Fort Leavenworth to Fort Riley. Livingston Urges Measure. To this bill Col. Livingston, of Georgia, proposed an amendment providing the construction of A road from Fort McPherson to the rifle range near Waco in the same manner, In the debate Representative Livingston took a conspicuous part, pointing out the advantages of thus employing United States prisoners just 88 state prisoners.

are now being employed in good roads work by' the state of Georgia. He said that when the prisoners at Atlanta finish the work of building the wall at the federal prison, there would be much better off, mentally and he thought there was no doubt the would be, much better off mentally and physically, if given outside employment. Representative Hay, of Virginia, was In charge of the opposition to the bill. His position was that while he would ordinarily favor the purpose of the bill, he could see no opportunity for any states except Georgia, Kansas and 8 few other communities the be beneAtted by it, and therefore opposed it. He said he favored government aid in road building in every state in the Union.

Start Must Be Made. 'How can you get It for Virginia unless you make a start somewhere?" asked Representative Livingston. "I do not object to the gentleman from: Georgie -getting the use of convicts it everybody else has the same opportunity. replied MA. Haya That the roads in the communities where United States penitentiaries are.

located should be the first to be improved by. this labor, was suggested by Representative Adamson, of' Georgia. The proposal was opposed vigorously as inaugurating a werk in which the national government had no right to participate and speeches on this line were made by Representatives Slayden, of Texas; Hull, of Tennessee: Madden, cf Illinois: Gillespie, of Texas, and Payne, of New York. Mr. Stevens, of Minnesota.

and Mr. Craig, of bama, said they opposed this particular Mr. Campbell, of: Kansas, made strong effective argument for the measure. saying that somewhere, at some time, somebody must begin to work on, the roads the convicts under the control of the government, Payne Ridicules Hobson. During the debate there was a sharp clash between Mr.

Hobson and Mr. Payne, the republican leader. "There should be some great drawn up," said Mr. Hobson, "for the construction of roads. in the United States under a single harmonious syg-.

tem." Mr. Payne suggested that this plan to bulld 'roads all over the United States was comparable' only the the Alabaman's contention for a greater navy. He declared it would bankrupt the United States to enter upon such. a policy. "My amendment provides the United States shall pay- but one-half," suggested Mr.

Hobson. "Ten per 'cent of It would cost more than your war, with Japan would cost In a thousand years." shouted Mr. Payne as he sat down, amid a roar of laughter. PILES CURED IN. to 14 DAYS.

Moody ed most beautifully the fatherliness of God, and deft an 'impression upon the meeting that was heightened when Dr. Broughton, at the following hour, related the touching story of the poor mountain mother, who came one hundred miles to see her boy in the infirmary, starting on foot with baby in her arms. When she reached the railroad, funds were found for her, and she came on, spending two hours' at the boy's bedside, and then returning to her family. Dr. Gray, pursuing his study prophecy through the writings of Jeremiah, expounded the 97th chapter of that book, written about the seventh century before Christ.

The Jewish nation has become personally disobedient to God and God is about to take from Her the dominion he has her, at least for the time being. The first nation to arise was begins what -is known the Babylon. of the Gentiles, which. la still continuing at the present time.

Dr. Gray closed with an appeal for the old -fashioned religion. that belived the Bible as a whole to be the Word of God, -and for an intelligent knowledge of the prophetic Scriptures, which disclose the portentous nature of the present socialistic, rationalistic, Christian Sclentist movements of the clime In their guise of humanitarianism. Dr. Meyer at 11 o'clock gave "quiet little about the Cross of Christ.

"What I teach from this platform," sald Dr. Meyer, "is not an attainment, but an attitude," referring. to the surrendered or spirit-filled life, "an attitude which contains In Itself the promise and the poteney of every. thing possible to- the Christian life. The cross is the dynamic.

The word ol the as if cross were aiways speaking, is the setting forthIn, time. Salvation has three tenses; we are saved when we accept Christ, we shall be saved when the church is caught up to meet Him in the air, and we are be. ing saved every day. The cross is the storage of the sun heat and power of the heart of God, as the coal is the storage of the warmth and glow of the sun. The cross transmutes for us -the power of God.

We cannot get like Christ by trying to get like but by absorbing Him. In the cross, God is exhaled, set flowing from the pierced side, and we must absorb God Christ dying on the the conclusion of Dr. Meyer's talk, the meeting adjourned to the site of the new building for the ceremonies of the laying. of the cornerstone.
