NOW READY
PASTOR URGES
THEPAYIIENT
OF POLL TAXES
Says It Is Patriotic Duty Every
Citizen Owes City County
State and Nation.
IS IMPORTANT MATTER
They Who Neglect It He Says
Should Be Debarred From the
Privileges of Citizenship.
Declaring that the payment of the
poll tax I* a patriotic duty and that
he who neglected to pay It should be
debarred from the privileges of clti-
■enship. Dr. Frederick Bowen. D. Dw
pastor of Madison Square Presbyterian
church yesterday morning delivered a
strong argument for payment of the
poll tax. His topic was “Christian
Citizenship" and he dwelt particularly
on the question: "Have you paid your
poll tax?" He was heard by a large
number.
He took his text from Matthew
17:24. "And when they were come to
Capernaum they that received tribute
money came to Peter and eaid: "Doth
not your master pay tribute? Ho
aalth. yes.”
“Several words are translated
tribute' tn the New TestamenL” Bald
Dr. Bowen. "Sometimes they refer to
the annual tax levied on persona
property and land by the Roman au-
thorities Sometimes they referred to
the half shekel paid yearly by every
adult Jew to pay ezpensee of sacri-
fices in a word for the maintenance
of the temple. Every patriotic Jew
was very punctilious about payment
of this tribute.
Is An Important Question.
"Have you paid your poll tax? This
question is asked persistently by bo d
type In newspapers on placards and
in circular lettera And the subject
of paying taxes has been an important
and interesting one during the month
of January.
"Every Intelligent citizen recognizes
that to defray the cost of public im-
provements police and fire protection
the public schools and all the other
privileges we taxation is neces-
sary. It is the duty of every citizen
to pay his quota. And every patriotic
American knows that to conceal prop-
erty and evade taxation is as dishon-
orable as highway robbery.
Is a Patriotic Duty.
“The tax known as poll tax has to
do with franchise. Most Americana
glad of the privilege of having a voice
in government willingly and regularly
pay this tax. It is a patriotic duty.
He who Ignores or neglects it should
be debarred from enjoying the privi-
leges of citizenship. Such an one
should never boast of his birth for
through being recreant in this par-
ticular he betrays his city county
state and country into the hands of
unscrupulous men. He is particeps
crlmlnls with them in their treach-
ery.
"Christianity properly understood
and interpreted implies and requires
faithfulness in civic duties. Religion
today is a matter of conduct rather
than of creed. The Christian should
not go out of the world should not
segregate himself from humanity but
should stay in it and by clean Ups
clean life by business integrity em-
phasize and prove the value of Chris-
tian citizenship.
"As never before our city calls for
brave patriotic service.”

<BY THE ASSOCIATED PRESS)
CHICAGO Jan- 15.—Albert Braun
manager of a specialty company here

hurried home to tell her of his luck
but when he arrived there she was
gone. The couple had been married
less than a year.
