"8 SHENANDOAH PARK DRIVE S EXTENDED Washington Business Men Expected to Raise $100,- 000 Quota. Although it had been expected that the campaign among _Washington husiness inen to raise $150,000 toward the purchase of the newly created Shenandoah National Park area in the Blue Ridge Mountains of Virginia would be completed by the beginning of this week, Robert N. Harper, chair- man of the executive committee and president of the District National Bank, announced yesterday that re- sponses had become so generous with- in the past 48 hours that the com- mittee had decided unanimously to extend the arbitrary time limit two more days. Although it is still impossible to tabulate definitely the total subscrip- tions to date, Mr. Harper expressed confidence in the ability of the busi- ness men of Washington to raise $100,000 toward Washington's quota. The remaining $50,000, it is hoped, will be obtained from the public at large, and solicitations in that direc- tion are being withheld pending com- pletion of the business men’s cam- paign. $2,500,000 Needed. National park officials pointed out that, although Congress has legally designated the area a national park, it will never be administered or de- veloped as such until 250,000 acres have been tupned over to the Govern- ment in fee simple. This will require a minimum of $2,500,000. The State of Virginia has subscribed the first Those who carried the Virginia mpaign to its successful end ex- ssed belief that if Washington at- tained ils quota by the middle of june, it would be more or less of a simple matter to raise the remainder elsewhere in the country by pointing 1o the District as an example. This, it was said, would insure the opening of the park this Summer and would thus provide the people of Washing- ton with a great outdoor recreation ground, covering nearly 700 square miles of virgin forests and mountain wilderness, only 93 miles away by motor or & short railroad trip for those who choose such a means of transportation.

CLAREND THE FIRST AID IN STOMACH ACHE v BY DR. ABERNETHY Criticism of Organization by Baptist Visitor Is Held Unjustified. Statements reflecting on the Y. M. C. A. and Y. W. C. A, which were made during the course of an address by a visiting delegate to the Baptist Unfon of North America last weex, do mnot represent the views of those who know intimately the work of these organizations, especially as they function in Washington, according to a statement last night by Rev. Dr. Willilam 8. Abernethy, pastor of Cal- vary Baptist Church here. “I regret exccedingly the statements recently made reflecting on the Y. M C. A. and the Y. W. C. A." said Dr. Abernethy. “I feel that both these organizations have been grievously wronged. Here in Washington I have found them both standing strongly for spiritual values. The churches depend upon them and have always found them true. William Knowles Cooper, general secretary of the Y. M. C. A.. and those assoclated with him are men of unquestioned spiritual fervor, and the same can be said of the offi- clals of the Y. W. C. A. We eannot do_without either organization. The charge which brought Dr. Abernethy’s statement was to the ef- fect that the Y. M. C. A. is “one of the greatest enemies of the Christian Church,” and the speaker included the Y. W. C. A. in his attack. Dr. Abernethy called attention Y. M. C. A. now does in co-operation with the churches of Washington, und also to the fact that the Y. M. C. A. is managed in Washington by a board of governors, the personnel of which is selected from men who are ac- tively fdentified with a church or u religious movement. It was_pointed out that in connec- tion with its religlous work, the | Washington Y. M. C.

By the Assoclated Press. & BALTIMORE, Md., May 29.—The Presbyterian Church in the United States of America today cntered a financial campaign which will result in self-rustaining pensions for all its ministers over 65 years of age, with a reserve fund of $15,000,000. The pension system was organized during th.e past year by a laymen's committee under direction of two emi- nent national figures. [ Will H. Hays, known in the busi- ness world as the chief figure of the motion picture industry, is chairman of the committep under his church designation as ruling elder of the Presbyterlan church, of Sullivan, Ind. Andrew W. Mellon, Secretary of the Treasury of the United States, is treasurer of the committee. Plan Outlined By Hays. Mr. Hays outlined the plan to the general assembly as calling for the stated endowment by contributions and a levy of 10 per cent of ministers’ salaries from the churches co-operat- ing in the plan. The church would pay 73 per cent, and the minister 2% per cent. The only objection to the plan was made by Rev. Albert 11. Gammon of Sanata, Barbara, Calif.. who called upon the assembly to throw out the plan and substitute a system based upon assessment. Dr. Harry lfam O. Thompson and of Dr. Hej Sloan Coffin of New York. st Dr. Thompson s expected to make a statement of policles, while Dr. Coffin was said to have prepared a sermon dealing with the aspects of the assembly from the modernist viewpoint.

ATHENS, Ga., May 29.—Chickens that are fast layers of hefty eggs are to be called upon to counteract the inroads of the boll weevil upon Southern prosperity. This was revealed here today in the announcement of the opening of a national egg-laying contest to be opened by the Georgia State College of Agriculture, November 1. The egg-laying tournament will be open to any standard breed or v and each bird will be tagged and & thorough record of her activities kept, although no eggs weighing less than 18 ounces to the dozen will be counted. It is estimated that if the average production of all the hens in Georgia could be ralsed just one egg per year, the hen's owners would be $225,000 annually better off. WABASH HEAD NAMED.
