of anything new in the spring fash-

been no attempt on the part of
dressmakers to affect any change
from the straight silhouette or a

The ingenuity of the masters of
style, however. has been boundles
in the manner of trimming to which

was no reason to believe it would

Distribution Increase-
The distribution of commodities
at wholesale and the shipments of
merchandise increased in January
as did the output of manufacturers.
This increase was sufficient to place
the general level for the two months
of 1924- above the average of 19
and taken with the changes in

movements of prices reflected. the
extent and character of the recent

almost on a level with that of twelve

NEW YORK. March L—The four
men who will pay with their lives
for the hold-up and murder of two
Brooklyn bank mmengers last No-

at Sing Sing today.
Justice Cropsay in the Supreme
Court. Brooklyn. pronounced sen-
tence on the yesterday morning. and
in the after-non. after being driven
from Raymond Street Jail to Grand
Central Terminal. they were taken
to a coach on the Albany local.
which left the station at 2:04 o'-
clock.
The condemned men are Morris
and Joe Diamond. John Farina and
Anthony Pentans. Elaborate pre-
cautions to prevent any possible at-
tempt to rescue them were taken by
the officials charged with the task'
of seeing them safely to the prison.
The lengthy procession of Police
Department automobiles that made
its way with the quartet over Lien-
hattan Bridge and up the Bowers
and Fourth Avenue to the main en-
trance of the terminal created cou-
eiderable attention.
at the terminal hundreds of .curios-
ity seekers gathered and the police
had difficulty handling them.
One of the four managed to call
out a farewell Q the crowd outside
the jail as the vans drove away.
This was Pantano.
"Goodby and good luck ‘ to
fortunate ones!” he cried out.
"Goodby. goodby." echoed some
of the morbid watchers. eagerly
seizing the chance to exchange lest
greetings with e condemned man.

THE RADIO AND T815 CHURCH
The Rev. Dr. Chester C. Marshall.
pastor of the First Methodist Epis-
copal church of Bridgeport. made
an interesting contribution in his
sermon on Sunday to the more or
lea general controversy as to the
effect of the radio and its broadcast-
ing powers upon church ICI'VICea.
Like a! linventions which carry the
voice without. the presence of its
possessor the radio appeals mightily
to the imagination and provokes
corresponding predictions as to its
effect upon conventional standards
and habits.
Dr. Marshall dissent: from the
view that the radio will usurp the
power and ministry of the church.
He does not deny that it may reflect
church attendance but in the' end
will prove an asset of the church
rather than a nobility. It appears
that he has been carrying on an
investigation among men in all
walks of life. business and profes-
sional. and it is from his discoveries
that he draws this conclusion: ”The
radio can supply the voice but not
the spirit. No heart is ever kindled
into holy flames by even the most
eloquent voice alone. Divine tire is
kindled by the flash of soul upon
soul. and not from an echo drawn
out of an empty space." He glories
in the wisdom of the church in
having adopted the printing pre-
as an ally and profoundly regrets
the stubbornness of the church in
not having adopted the motion pic-
ture.
