II:

Condemn Wine As
Deny Bias

gar

NEW YORK, March 14.—-—A new
bible. based on the oldest Hebrew
tut. available and from which are
ollmlnatcd references to wine mm-

ills: in tho King James version. has
boon published by Charles Scribner's
Sons. Issued in two volumes. the
now Version is known as the short-
er bible. ‘

V quotation in other \crslons
of the bible about David dealing out
"a cake of bread and a good piece
of flesh and a flagron of wine." ap-
pears in the shorter bible as “a roll
of bread. a. portion of meat and aI
cake of raisins." The prophet.
Isaiah's reference to tin. children of;
Israel looking to other gods and
"loving flagons of wine" appears in.
the new bible as "Although they
turn to other St is and loved to out
raisin cakes at their festivals."

The shorter l-iblc. however. con-l
tains the phrases “Wine is u mock-l
er," “Strong drink is turbulent."
"So look not on wine when it is red"
and “Be careful not to drink any
nvin‘ or intoxicating drink."

Two Propositions
The juries dealt with two pro-

positions—suppression of the shows
or modification of languages or ac-
tion. Cone-:rning the only play in
which modification was recom-
mend. the jury reported:

"The Jury drawn to act on ‘Fire-
brand' finds it is not objectionable
from the viewpoint of public mor-
als. It. has aim; voted unanimously
that. the method of acting in scene
2. act. ii. between Cellini and the
Duchess shall be modified in order
to reduce the rmphasis of physical
appeal on the part of thc actor
playing Cellini."

The modified scene will be put on
tonight and a sub-committee of the
jury will attend the show and pass
upon it.

ACTRESS DIES
AFTER DRINKING
SHEPOLISH

Meriden Girl, Unable
to Procure Work,
Dies After Second
Attempt on Life

XEW YORK, March 14. (Special
to The Sentlnr-l)-—.\Iiss Charlotte
Cartl r Slalher .all actress and writer.
had been ill for three months an un-
able to work. She was obsessed
with the belief that she had failed
and she drank silver shoe polish in
her apartment. at East 56th street,
Thursday, causing her death.

It. was the second time she had
tried to take her life. She was living
in the Hotel Plaza. at the time of the
iirst. in November. 1921. After she
had been asked to pay her bill of
8350 she swallowed opium at Verona.
but was revived. While she was
being treated by the l'lazn. House
physician she begged him to tele-
phone Reginald Vanderbilt. the New
York society man. so that he could
see her before she died. The physio-
ian said she would recover and re-
fused the request.

She had written several notes and
Mt them in a neat pile on her dress-
er. One was to her father. ll. E.
Slather. a. banker of Meriden. Conn.,
and another was addressed to Mamie
Jones. This read: “1 have just taken
a. bath and want to be buried as 1
am but with the dressing gown my
mother gave me for Christmas.
Don't let anybody touch me. you
may havegmy hat. coat and dress.
I hope they will repay you some-
what for your services. Goodbye."

BERLIN. March ld—With five
candidates for tho German presi-
dency already nominated and some
possibility that. tho National-Social-
ists may nominato a bixth. it seems
almost certain that. the election of
March 29 to choose a. successor to
President Ebert will fail to develop
a majority of all the votes cast tor
any one candidate. as the require-
ment is.
Starting from
and ranging over

the cxtrcmist side
to the conserva-

tives the ddlcial candidates now
are:

Ernst Tha_clmann. transport
worker. Communist.

Otto I‘traun. former Prussian

Premier. Socialist.
Dr. \Vilhelm Marx. former Chan-

It is generally considered that
the election of March 29 will be a

ably two candidates will be agreed
upon for the final balloting. April

In the camp of the parties of the
right it is stated that should Dr.
Jarres not develop sufficient
strength to make likely his election
on April 26. Otto Gouler. the min-
ister of defense. who is a Catholic
and a Democrat but very conserva—
tive, may he put. forward by th-

‘Make Home Cheerful’
Slogan of J. A. Rudder

"Make the. home bright and
cheerful" appears to be the slogan
now with many patrons of Jacob A.
Rudder. decorator and pointing con-
tractor. 108 Main Street. These
are busy days for him and his tele-
phone number 1-bit; is constantly
ringing from those seeking his ser-
viccs.

For 35 years he has specialized in
"making homes bright and cheerful"
and his own homo in South Main
Street bears mute testimony to this
fact. Each room of Mr. Rudder's
home is tastefully and beautifully
decorated in harmony with the fur—
nishings and floor coverings. Many
of the finest. residences in the city of
Norwalk have had the benefit of Mr.
Rudder's exceptional skill in interior
decanting.

As one patron put it: "The Rudder
way is 0. K.. and should be tried
without delay."
