Dr. Ben- | Jamin Clark Warren, 72, climaxed 50 years in the pulpit yesterday by en- livening the Annual Conference of New | York Methodist Ministers with what he called an expose of the “inside story of Methodism.” | ‘The elderly preacher, who recently | snnounced his retirement in the Meth- odist Episcopal Church at Cold Spring, | X Y., held forth in the Park Avenue | Methodist Episcopal Church for an | hour, and urged the general convention | to curtall the appeintive power of its | bishops. | Stuns Fellow Preachers. | While his fellow clerics sfft stunned gave instances in which he said he d been threatened with discipline by the bishops, shunted to small churches and generally subordinated because of his non-conformist teachings and writ- | ings. | At length Dr. Christian F. Reisner, pastor of the Broadway Temple Metho- dist Church and chairman of the Church Advertising Committee of the New York Advertising Club, interrupted. | “I think it would be well for the | eonference to realize,” he remarked, | *that if this gets into the newspapers 1t will get out all over the country.” Allowed More Time. An ensuing debate on whether Dr. Warren should be permitted to talk be- | d the time limit finally led Presid- | Bishop Charles L. Mead of Chicago to put the question to a vote. It was overwhelmingly decided that Dr. War- yen should be given an additional hour | for his parting address just preceding | :ho report of the Evangelistic Commit- ee. ‘The minister said later he was twice put under pressure for his unorthodox views. Once he wrote a book entitled *“In the Land of the Romberg” a de- nunciation of wealthy parishioners, and | again he was advised to leave the pas- | torate of the Union Methodist Episcopal Church_because he spent teo much | time with the young people.

This may lead to an im- | portant field of research in which there | is already considerable interest in scientific circles. The new method of handling fiuorine was reported by Lucius A. Bigelow, | Ph. D.; P. J. Pearson, Lewis B. Cook | and George J. Haus of Duke University. | The organic compound to be com- bined with fiuorine is first dissolved in carbon tetrachoride, one of the sub- stances sometimes used in fire extin- guishers. The mixture is kept at freezing temperature. When fluorine is passed through this solution, it combines and there is no plosion; in other words, it stays put | at least long enough for the chemist | to see what is happening. Will Not Explode. | ‘The carbon tetrachloride is distilled off and still the product remains stable and does not explode. One fairly defi- | nite product, which has been obtained, is a combination of fluorine and nap- thalene, a substance common in moth balls. This new product is gra; poses at a temperature of above mero Fahrenheit. ‘The experiments have proven also t! contrary to previous beliefs, fluorine displace chlorine from carbon tetra- chioride at freezing temperature, .
