FRIDAY RECORD

STATUS OF BIBLE
, TO BE DETER1NED;
' '':':'.- ", ' : ' ' ' " f
... ; - T -I .1 ,
NEW YORK. Sept. 30. The supreme court of the United
States will be asked to determine whether the Bible can be
legally excluded from the public schools. y-h 11 "
This was announced tonight by leaders of the Presbyter
ian church here who have headed a movement among various
- religious denominations to bring a test case before the na
tion's highest tribunal. ' ' 1
The state of, Washington, which officially excludes the
Bible from its public schools, will furnish thrbasis for the
easel f. The contemplated action had its inception in the synod
of Washington of the Presbyterian church.
The line of attack will be based
on the Declaration of Independ
ence, f the 'Presbyterians claiming
that the declaration Is a covenant
between the American nation and
God and that the study of the
Bible by American children is es
sential to an understanding of the
covenant and to full knowledge
of God. ' ,
. : Opinions Cited. -
"To exclude the Bible from the
public schools," the Presbyterians
contend in their presentment pre
paratory to an appeal to the su
preme court, Mia to violate one of
the essential clauses ot the open
Jog paragraph of the Declaration

Information Given Officers and Finding of Parcel Con
taining Masks, Gun and Slingshot Leads to Arrest
of fair at State Fair Grounds Last Night Plot to
Capture Treasure Car Believed Frustrated When
Strangers, Are Picked
WIthnhe arrest of two men giving their naniw"as C. A.
Hendrick and JL L. Allan, at the state fairgrounds last night,
Chief pf Police Moffitt and state fair officials believe that a
plan to, hold up messengers conveying Saturday's gate re
ceipts to local banks had been pipped in the bud.
Early yesterday afternoon hief Moffitt received in
fQrmatiqn that a parcel containing two black masks, a shoul
der hoster, two caps and a 45 calibre automatic pistol had
been checked at a stand in the fairgrounds. The outfit was
contained in a small leatherette case, such as is carried by
salesmen and is pronouced by officers to be one of the neatest
burglar d,e luxe" outfits ever taken into captivity. Discov
ery of the outfit was first made by Special Officer Walter
Thompson.
yhe two men were arrested by Sergeant Clyde Ellis and
Special. Officer C. E. Bender when they called at the stand
for their parcel. Both men made a show of resistance but
were soon overpowered, lapsing-into sulleness. The man
who caps himself Allan, gave his name as "Lewis" when first
questioned.
Suspectetl of Holdup.
"I am convinced that this pair
had planned to stage a series of
holdups similar to those pulled at
Ganby on the last day of the show
