SALT LAKE CITY, April 7—With an emphatic reafirmation of his statement of last Sunday night that no person save the duly constituted head of the Mormon Church could re- ceive a revelation affecting the gov- ernment, conduct or policy of that church, President Heber J. Grant yes- terday adjourned the ninety-first gen- eral conference. President Grant said that in his previous statement he had no thought of conveying the idea that the power of revelation rested with one man alone, for it had always been a doc- i} | members might and did receive reve- Pays 6 Per Cent ’ lations from God to help them in their ONDON M Minneapoli: PERPETUAL daily llves.r and that the church hu.fi on shares maturing in 45 always believed that God revealte It His will and inspired mea in all ages Pays 4 Per Cent to accomplish work in furtherance of His purposes on shares withdrawn be- fore maturity Patriarchs Are Ousted. i Assets More Than or 83 months. “We have excommunicated two patriarchs who have pretended to perform plural marriages, for 1o patriarch has any authority to per- form any marriage ceremony in the church,” President Grant said. “There is no man on earth that{ has the power to perform plural $7,000,000 riages.

Various - speakers said that the soil there 2 s produces excellent crops, and it was also pointed out that it would make the Library of Congress and other public buildings accessible for stu- dents. Elder E. K. Slade, president of the Atlantic Union Conference, suggest- ed that the institution be located along the Hudson river, while of- ficials of the Columbia Union Con- ference suggested a spot in eastern Pennsylvania. During the discussion it was brought out that an institution with sufficient dormitories to accommo- date 400 students should be estab- lished on a farm large enough for agriculture, horticulture and me- chanical trades to be taught. The present location has accom- | modations for only 100 students, 'll!ll‘ nearly 300 enrolled, and only fifteen acres of land on the tract. | { | WAR OFFICE TRANSFERS SOME CEMETERY HEADS Changes Made in Various Parts of €ountry, But Policy Remains S 5 - Women’s N 3 ous parts of the country.
