You have to knock on doors and tell why. You will get into a lot or arguments, but you'll get a lot of support. "Will you work up transporta tion committees to take people to the polls? Some of you may say, 'Well, we haven been too inter ested in This isn't politics. This is for the church.

'Finally, will you -make this a matter of much prayer? That is the greatest need, we need organ ised prayer meetings in churches ana prayer bands in the homes. "Those are the conditions on which I will go into this thing, ana 1 go into it, Ira going to win. If you decide to go along with my recommendations, then I will do everything in my power to deieat Satan and to glorify the Lord Jesus Christ," Vote of Confidence The ministers responded with a rising vote of confidence. Early in his address, Gen. Jordan declared: "I know the evils of liquor firsthand.

I know it has caused critical conditions in our community. I know it is tearing down the moral standard and fiber of our country. There are Just about as many women drinking these days as men. And I have seen liquor change human beings until they were almost animals. "Liquor has been the case of 88 per cent of the divorces in Hamilton County.

"Our penitentiaries are loaded with men who committed crimes while under the influence of liquor. I own a hardware store that has been broken into four times. The criminals testified three times that they were under the influence of alcohol at the time. Blames Parents "The number of deaths In automobiles caused by alcohol is appalling. It is getting to a point where a person Is afraid to get out on the highway for fear of being hit.

Teen-agers are drinking more and more. We talk about juvenile delinquency. We should talk about adult delinquency. The children are getting the habit from their mothers and fathers who have liquor in their homes. They say they had rather for Johnny to drink at home than hang around bad places.

What they are really doing is helping send Johnny to hell." Gen. Jordan said the whisky forces in the 1940 referendum here were led by a lawyer who received pay for his services. He called on a lot of his drinking friends to make speeches for the sale of legal liquor. I was one ot those be called. I drank at the time, but did not make a speech.

A young lawyer called me recently and ad vised me not to head the drive. He told me about how things were before liquor became legal I asked him now old he was and he said he was born, in 1928. He was 4 'years old when prohibition ended, so I asked him what he knew about it. "Make no mistake about it, the liquor Industry is going to be kept well informed. The Chatta nooga Times has been most gracious to keep them.

Informed about what is going on." continuing, he asked: "Have you ever seen a mau with delirium tremens I have. And I'd like to have some of our liquor dealers live In a house with a man like that. He would go down and sell his whisky store. Some of you preachers have liquor dealers in your congregations and you would be surprised If you searched the cupboards in homes of some of your members."

BUS BOYCOTT HEARING BEFORE COURT FRIDAY MONTGOMERY, May 7 VPt The lengthening Negro boycott of city buses In Montgomery may produce the first clear-cut decision from the U.S. Supreme Court on bus segregation. A suit challenging constitutionality of Montgomery city and Alabama state segregation laws will be heard by a three-judge panel in federal court Friday.
