A—16 LUTHERANS PLAN SEMINARY MERGER Many Institutions Affected Over U. S.—Committee Prepares Report. By the Associated Press. PHILADELPHTA, October 1.-—Rec- ommendations for a reorganization of the seminaries of the United Lutheran Church in America are contained in a Teport drawn up by a committee that has been studying the question for the last two_years. The church’s 11 seminaries would be reduced to 4 if the committee’s sug- gestions are followed, and new educa- tional and equipment standards set. The report is designed to b presented to the biennial convention of the church | here October 12 to 19. Four Affected in East. An Eastern seminary would be formed by the merger of Hartwick Seminary, Brooklyn; Theological Seminary, Gettys- burg, Pa.; Susquehanna, Selingsgrove, Pa., and Lutheran Theological Semi- nary, Philadelphia. s Hamma Divinity School, at Spring- fleld, Ohio, and Chicago Lutheran Theo- logical Seminary, at Maywood, Il would be merged to form the central seminary. To form the proposed Western school, the Western Theological Semiary, at Freemont, Nebr.; Northwesterr Luth- eran Theological Seminary, at Minnea- polis, Minn., and Martin Luther Semi- nary, at Lincoln, Nebr, would be merged:. . Locations Not Selected. The Lutheran Theological Seminary at Columbia, S. C., would be retained as the Southern institution, while the church’s - board of -education would be asked to pay for the transportation of students from the Pacific Synod, which now supports Pacific Theological Seminary, at Seattle, Wash., to the proposed Western school. The committee does not recommend locations for the four proposed schools but suggests that no seminary be placed in the same town s the church college, which is now true of the seminaries at Gettysburg and Selingsgrove, Pa., and at Fremont, Nebr.

C., OCY DENY RACE DISTINCTION D. C. Heads Reply to Charge on Selecting Police. The District Commissioners have denied that any race discrimination is practiced in selecting members of the police force. Their denial was carried in a letter to the Rev. H. R. Randolph, of the A. M. E. Zion Church, who had complajned that out of approximately 1,000 members of the force. only 40 were colored men, and this is a decline from the 43 members some years ago. The Commissioners wrote that all appointments ‘to the force are made from Civil Service lists. and that in considering the certificates of the Civil Service Commission, no distinction is made as to color. —_— Train Accident Unexplained.
