WASHINGTON, Feb. 8.—It
VV now appears certain that
the two presidential candidatea
will be nominated at the nation-
al conventions and not before.
TJie Instruction season will
soon be at hand. There will be
primaries which, history shows,
have yet to decide a nomination,
and there will be state onven-
tions, which will be consider-
ably .more important.
In both of them, it appears,
the politicians will be working
the old favorite son and unin-
structed delegation game as
hard as ever. Tills applies to ',
both parties, bptat the mome.it -
one is forced to suspect tiiat
that method will provide more
nourishment for the politicians
who hope to stop Hoover than
aside from the competition, is
the fdating evangelist who
takes several thousand dollars
out of most small towns an-
nually. thus depleting every
church there.
So long as churches "cannot
afford to hire strong and com-
pelling pastors, men of vision
and brains, but can afford to ,
shell out from $1,500 to $2,-
000 every year or so for a vis-
iting evangelist and his crew.
Just so long will the rural .
churches suffer.
Any church that can afford ]
to get a high-priced evangelist j
can afford to double Ita pas- I

lie under control of the student
