Sweinhart, president, announced at a luncheon meeting in the present club- rooms in the Albee Building yester- day. Mr. Sweinhart's report was one of the utmost optimism Tt is proposed that the house, to_be located on the oid Ebbitt Hotel and Building, office building and club floor will be occupied by a great mov ing picture theater and stores. the top floors by the clubrooms dnd inter- vening space for offices Details of obtaining the site and forming a holdinz company to take it over are being worked out by Har- vey D.

K. | | | | ! | When President Coolidze returns to| | Washington in a few days he is ex- | pected to recelve a delegation from the First Congregational Church, who will present 1o him and Mrs. Coolidge a plar for erecting an expensive new | edifice on Sixteenth street, it was learned today This delegation will view expressed some time ago among a wing of the Congregationalists that the new edifice should mot be part church and part office building and dormitory, but should be devoted to religious activities alone, and in its architectural lines be suggestive of purely sanctimonious things. Rev. Jason Noble Pierce, pastor, | | who stood with President Coolidge and |the trustees of Amherst on the demo- | tion of Prof. Alexander Meiklejohn, | will conclude his vacation in New England September 15, and then re.

This section wants no dormitory and office build- ing, or even a 10 one, with hurch affairs submerged at the bot- om. like the huge structure erected at Chicago as 1f-supporting insti- tution . these members, who claim to represent the spirit of true | i 'ess, are not tisfied 1o lany kind of an improvement at the northeast corner of Tenth and G. which, for many vears, has contained | the comfortable but modest edifice of the congregation. The opposing faction in the church wants not only to stay at the old | stamping ground at Tenth and G, but |to make the church what it has al- | ways been—a city of refuge for the {poor and the weak. the hungry and the oppressed, the begga well as the man of large means. This fac- {tion believes that the highest church | service consists in helping distress of spirit and body, and it is strongly opposed to the creation of a shrine on Sixteenth street. Generally speaking, the members live close to | the present edifice, and to move to | the church and embassy neighborhood | | of Sixteenth, at or near Columbla road, would serious inconvenience most |of them and curtail their attendance. |Such would be particularly true, it is pointed out. of the older members, who were born and have since lived near the church and to whom travel to_a newer neighborhood would be \ a hardship | Present But. there is binds the older church of Lady recome | ym- make | fice Historic. a stronger tie that brethern and sisters |10 the present location.
