VICAR DISCUSSES OXFORD MOVEMENT Dr. Bishop Tells of Results as Episcopalians Mark Centenary Year. BY JAMES WALDO FAWCETT. i Rev. Dr. William S. Bishop, vicar of St. Thomas’ Church, yesterday discussed | the significance of the centenary of the beginning of the Oxford Movement in! the Church of England, to be celebrated | at Washington Cathedral this week. A program of sermons and lectures has been arranged by Right Rev. James E.| Freeman, Bishop of Washington: Right Rev. Philip M. Rhinelander, former | Bishop of Pennsylvania and now war-| den of the College of Preachers, and a group of co-operating clergy. Rev. Dr. S. Parkes Cadman, pastor, Central Congregational Church, Brook- | lyn, will preach on “The Oxford Move- ment and Protestantism” at 4 o'clock this afternoon in the great choir of the| Cathedral. The speakers tomorrow will be: Rev. Shirley C. Hughson, superior, Order of the Holy Cross, who will di cuss “The Oxford Movement and Com- munity Life.” at 4 o'clock; and Very Rev, Henry B. Washburn, dean, Episco- pal _Theological School, Cambridge, Mass.. who will consider “The Oxford Movement and the Recovery of Spirit- ual Values,” at 7:45. “The Oxford Movement, whose cen- | tenary we are observing,” Dr. Bishop | said, “should not be confused with the | mission of the Oxford Groups or First Laid Stress on Church. | “The Oxford leaders of 1833 stressed the importance of the church as the organic, living foundation of Christ, | functioning through its apostically-de- | scended ministry and through the sac-| raments established by Christ himself. | In the church they recognized that vi ible society, which has come down through 1,900 years and exists nmnng‘ men today as an organized body, an in- | stitution for the preservation and pro- | motion of the Christian faith and an| instrument and channel of Christian | life. Such was the conception of the! church held by John Keble, Bouverie Pusey, John Henry Newman and their fellow workers in the Church of England, when the Oxford Movement | began. As the Protestant leaders of the sixteenth century had laid emphasis on the Bible, they urged the importance of | the church. “These men believed that if the church really is a aistinct institution and a concrete organized body, it must have the inherent right and duty of self-government. They saw that it should not be a mere section or phase of human society, still less a mere de partment of the state. It may be diffi- cult for Americans to understand the situation of the church in England at that time. The fact is that, as Keble and Pusey viewed it, the church then was in canger of sinking to the level of a branch of the crown government. | It regulated by Parliament, it was | governed by forces outside itself, it w: in no true respect an independent bod: Keble challenged the attention of the Whole English-speaking Christian world when, July 14, 1833, he preached a f: mous sermon_on ‘National Apostacy,’ setting forth his resentment against a bill which At the moment was before Parliament to suppress 10 of the Irish bishoprics. In effect, he demanded to know if the people of the church were willing to tolerate such arbitrary con- trol of the church's affairs as was im- in this and other proposals. Had Larger Purpose. | “But Keble and Pusey had a larger than that of a propaganda for r freedom. Their real aim was to revitalize the conception the church. In their judgment, religion in England had become too individualistic. They also felt that it had been influ- enced by secularism and unbelief. The times, they thought, called for a mili- tant, an aggressive churchmanship. The church, they said, must reaffirm the faith originally delivered to the saints, must emphasize its own God- given authority and message, must re- sist the inroads of skepticism and in- difference, must realize and make ef- fective its calling as Christ’s one, holy, catholic and apostolic church. “They published a series of pamphlets and books, under the general title of “Tracts for the Times,’ and that is why they came to be known as Tractarians. Their publications had wide reading, at home and abroad. “It is evident that this was a gen- vine religious movement, a revival of religion, not only of personal, but of corporate religion. The leaders were intensely spiritual men, and their pur- pose was ardent, and their motives ho! By their personal example and by their preaching and writing they affected a real reformation in Christian worship and in sacramental life.” Dr. Bishop was asked to summarize the net results of the Oxford campaign. He said: “The movement exalted the sacraments and thereby gave added dignity, restored dignity, as weil @s beauty to the worship of the church. The influence spread to America. It is so apparent that we no longer notice or remark it. In the architecture, the arrangements and the decoration of parish churches everywhere it is mani- fest. ‘The preservation of fine old churches and the building of new churches and of magnificent cathedrals is due in some part to it. That is why it is appropriate that the Oxford cen- tenary should be celebrated at Wash- iagton Cathedral. Vast Changes Resulted. “The younger generation cannot un- derstand the vast changes which have taken place within the memory of some of us who are older. much to say that, because of the Ox- ford movement, the Anglican com- munion has taken on a new lease of life. And after a whole century the movement still goes on, still exerts an | influence, even outside the boundaries | of Anglicanism, throughout the entire Christian fellowship. We are celebrat- ing a living force, not just a hallowed memory of devoted but exhausted ef- fort.” Dr. Bishop explained that Oxford University has been the scene of many great religious movements. The Trac- tarian leaders were Oxford graduates, as were Wycliffe and the Wesleys. They gave the name of their work as a high compliment to the school in which they had secured their training. The Oxford men were “quiet and ‘modest disposition,” Dr. Bishop de- clared, “far removed from the temper of the agitator or demagogue. They were academics. They appealed to cultivated audiences. The Oxford move- ment never has been a popular move- ment in the sense of some other re- vivals. But perhaps its moderation has been one of its greatest values.” The revival of interest in religious orders for men and for women, Dr. Bishop attributed to the Oxford work. He also referred to music, poetry, jconography, stained-glass and sacred ‘embroidery as reflecting the Oxford in- fluence. Confusion Needless. With regard to the Oxford groups, Dr. Bishop said there has been unnec- essary confusion in the public mind. “They are concerned primarily,” he ex- plained, “with the development of per- =onal religion. They are not so imme- diately concerned with the fate of the church as Keble and Pusey were.” Dr. Bishop was graduated at Rutgers University in 1887. He was a member of the faculty of the University of the South from 1902 to 1913. He received his doctor of divinity degree from Gen- eral Theological Seminary on examina- tion. An autharity on the history of the creed, he has published a series of $ooks on that and related subjects, in- Eaward | & It is not too | 3ul Tra THE SUNDAY STAR, WASHINGTON, D.

Their value would increase and they would be easler to market when depression days are over.” Mrs. John Jay O'Connor, member of both the local and national Travelers’ Aid boards and a director of the Com- munity Chest, expressed the belief own- | elers’ Aid Board, who presided at the |ers of vacant property would see the need and lend their property to char- ity agencies. Formal presentation of Lansburgh House by Mrs. Goldsmith and accep- tance of it on behalf of the Community Chest and the Washington Travelers’ Aid by Clarence P.

KEECH ASKS ACTION ON UTLITES PLAK Seeks Legislation Limiting| Court Reviews of Orders to Legal Questions. Enactment by Congress during the | present session of a propesal that court | reviews of the orders of the District | Public Utilities Commission be limited to questions of law was urged by Rich- | mond B. Keech, people’s counsel, in a letter received yesterday by Representa- tive Black, chairman of the Public Utilities Subcommittee of the House District Committee. Keech asked that this amendment to the utilities law be considered as a | separate proposition rather than as a part of a group of proposals, so as to expedite its ccnsideration by Congress From the public viewpoint, Keech | declared, enactment of this proposal | at an early date is of extreme im-| portance since the commission now is engaged in revaluations of several local utilities. Amendments Studied. | He points out that George E. Sullivan, | chairman of the Law and Legislation | Committee of the Federation of Citizens' Associations, already has pro- posed such a measure. The Public Utilities Commission now is studying the draft of amendments to ( the utilities act, one of which covers the same objective. It is expected these suggested changes will be forwarded to Congress next week. In supporting the principle of the proposed change in_the court review section of the act, Keech pointed out the purpose would be to make the commission’s findings of fact conclusive, when supported by substantial evidence. Revaluations in Progress. ‘The need for early enactment of such | legislation is self-evident, he declared, in view of the fact the commission | now is engzged in revaluations of the | properties of the Washington Railway & Electric Co., the Capital Traction Co., Washington Rapid Transit Co. and the two gas companies. Keech anticipated that unless the proposed legislation is enacted, the order of the commission as to the valuation of the gas company properties would be taken to ccurt, if past experience is & de. | “The practical effect of this is that| all the facts are viewed twice, and the | judgment of a single justice, of neces- | sity not a specialist in the utilitv field, is substituted for that of a body spe- cially fitted for the purpose.” | OFFICER EXONERATED | IN FATAL SHOOTING Shot Down After Another Police- man Had Been Knocked From Running Board of Car.

Rank, second pre- cinct, was gbsalved of blame by a cor- | oner’s jury which yesterday investigated | the fatal’shoeting of Percy Jones, 20, cclored, who was killed' by Rank after another policeman had been knocked from the running board of the colored man’s automobile at Seventh and N streets. The shooting, which occurred early Priday, was held by the jury to have been in line of duty. The other police~ man, Andrew W. Taylor, was injured when. Jones knocked him from the run- ning Board by driving against a truck. The policeman had tried to stop the colored man after seeing him driving in what they described as a reckless manner. Rank fired six shots at Jones, one of the bullets entering his back.

The President's wife enjoys shnl'lnz' with others the amusing articles that arrive at the White House. Her press conference, therefore, usu- ally starts with a laugh, caused by some timely arrival. When the subject of beer was foam- ing on all sides, Mrs. Roosevelt brought in and set upon the table a little clock whose works made a little man on the dial raise a beer mug to his mouth. Easter brought in two eggs, painted in the likenesses of the President and Mrs. Roosevelt. This week it was a calico Teddy bear and gingham doll, of huge size and re- markable personality, sent by a woman who wants to know how she can keep others from “copying” them.

Motsinger, treasurer of the Knitwell Hoslery Mills, today, forced him to drive his car several miles east of the city and TAX DELAY LIKELY Roosevelt Orders Wallace to Submit All Levies Before Imposing Them. By the Assoclated Press. Delay in the use of the processing taxing power in the farm relief act as a lever to boost farm prices appeared certain last night as preliminary activ- ity to adminiSter the bill began. President Roosevelt, anxious to make a tariff truce effective for the duration of the London Economic Conference starting in June and for the period prior to that, has instructed Secretary | of Agriculture Wallace to submit any plan for processing taxes to the White House before ordering them into effect. ‘There is & provision in the bill re- quiring that when any processing tax is levied a compensatory “import tax” shall be on imports of farm commodities taxed or goods manufac- tured from them. Originally. the bill referred to the tax as a “dutv.” but this was changed at the suggestion of the State Department. The import tax | ‘would be a tariff in efTect. ‘The White House is anxious to pre- vent any misunderstanding on the part of other natiors that tariffs are being boosted here while the United States is leading the wav in an effort to break down tariff walls and invigorate inter- national trade. While the White House has not ordered that the use of processing taxes be abandoned. their non-use during the ! London Conference, expected to last several months, may have the effect of shifting the approach of Wallace's orga nization to the farm problem. Wallace told reporters yesterday the methods to be used to better farm prices and curtail production have no* been determined yet, but that they will be worked out at commodity meetings in coming weeks and adopted only after effort has been made to have them ap- | proved by producers, processors and | dealers. These groups will have repre- sentation on the commodity councils he will establish Wallace yesterday appointed Charles J. Brand of Washington, a native of Minnesota. as co-administrator of the act with George N. Peek of Moline, IIl., chief administrator. Chester Davis, former Montana Com- missioner of Agriculture, is scheduled for the other co-administrator post. Wallace said commocity chiefs will be named this week. M. L. Wilson of Mon- tana State College is scheduled to di- rect application of the act to wheat | ‘Wallace, although refusing to say definitely what course the administra- | tion will take, indicated there is little | prospect of any acreage curtailment plan being applied to wheat before Win- ter wheat planting begins late in the Summer. Spring wheat planting is nearly complete. He will confer informally with repre sentatives of the cotton industry 't morrow when proposals for a trad agreement covering the chief crop of the South will be up for discussion.
