The unification would weld into one Methodist Episcopal Church, gener- ally termed the northern branch, with a membership of about 4,750,000; -tha Methodist Episcopal Church, mately 2,800,000, and the Methodist | Protestant Church, with some 400,000 members, a total of about 8,000,000 | The branch now known as the | Methodist Protestant Church sep- arated from the general conference in | 1821 over a question of administra- | |tion, and has since maintained a t | policy of electing presidents at con- | terms, instead of electing bishops to | | serve for life. Although the Eastern }Con{erznce rejected the proposed merger at its meeting yesterday in ! Atlantic City, N. J., other conferences | are expected to approve the proposal.

Rug of goat’s hair, and pottery, including copy of jar found in a tomb over 1,000 years old, BY LEILA MECHLIN, part of the Finnish art exhibit. N EXHIBITION of industrial art from Finlnd opened to- day on the second floor of Woodward & Lothrop’s under the patronage of the Minister of Fin- land to the United States. This is a unique exhibition, the first of its kind in this city and one of the first in this country. It covers a wide fleld of artistic activity and is extensive. In fact so extensive is it that, although a large amount of space has been allotted to the display, the exhibits will be changed every two or three days in order that, in rotation, all may be seen. The purpose of this exhibition obvi- ously is the advancement of friendship through understanding on the part of our two nations—Finland and the | United States. To effect this no me- dium could be better than the arts| which speak a universal language. In no way can the ideals and aspirations of a people be better realized than| through the things they make and with which they surround themselves in their homes. The art of Finland, manifested in her crafts, dates back to the time of the Vikings, in the dawn of history. Included in this exhibition are copies of jars, well shaped and decorated, which were found in graves from 1.000 t0 1,400 years old. The Republic of Pin- | 1and lies, it will be remembered, north- west of Russia, & near neighbor of Swed- | en and Norway. It is a land of forests | and swamps, short Summers and lon( | Winters, long days and, when the sea- | son changes very long nights. Its | artistic industries began and for cen- | turies were carried on in the homes of the farmers and peasantry. To a great extent they are still and it is these individualistic, handmade prod- of this exhibition. ‘The weavings shown in this exhibi- tlon can be commended without res- MRS. C. H. SMALL, 48, CLAIMED BY DEATH Attorney Formerly Active in Official Society. Mrs. Jenice T. Small, 48, of 231! First street northeast, wife of Charles | H. Small, an attorney of the Depart- ment of Justice, died last night after | a long illness in Garfield Hospital. Mrs. Small was active in official society during the Coolidge and Hoo- ver administrations. She and Mr. Small came here in 1928, when he was named special assistant to Attor- ney General Sargent. Mr. Small con- tinued as a special assistant to the Attorney General when Mr. Hoover was President. Previously he had practiced law in Kansas City and Denver. Besides her husband, Mrs. Small leaves two sons, Terrell Marshall and Joseph Marshall, children by a for- mer marriage, who are practicing lawyers in Little Rock, Ark.; her mother, Mrs. L. P. Thomas, of Little Rock; a sister, Mrs. Marvin Harris, Lit- tle Rock, and a brother, L. P. Thomas, New Orleans. She also leaves one grandchild. Funeral services and burial will be in Little Rock Monday. *|C. J. DAVIS RITES SET FOR MONDAY Veteran Cameraman Will Be Buried in Rock Creek Cemetery. Funeral services for Charles J. Davis, 44, veteran cameraman for the Fox Movietone News, will be held at 11 am. Monday in- Hines' funeral ervation. Most notable are the long- nap rugs made of goat's hair, soft as lamb’s wool and much more durable. ‘The yarn used is dyed in vegetable dyes and is fadeless. One or two of the rugs displayed are over 100 years old and as fresh and bright today as when first woven. Also they are very engaging in design. One has an angel pattern suggesting in its naive sim- plicity the paintings of the Italian primitive artists. Others show ani- mals as well as people and are in- terestingly conventionalized, or, as we say today, “stylized.” These are all in the ancient mode. More up-to-date and sophisticated are the hand-woven table covers of bright-colored linen. Not only are these good in texture, but also in color scheme, the bolder tints finding in them pleasing combina- | tion. And there are many other va- rieties of woven fabrics—scarfs, sweat- ers, etc. The warm, woolly mittens, in | are particularly | With the | fantastic patterns, nationalistic in flavor. woven goods are shown several hand- | looms such as were used by the weav- ers. ‘The pottery in many instances is still potably good in design, in strong, useful and appropriate shapes. There is an extensive collection of hand- | made pewter, some of which takes characteristic forms and shows good surface finish. For countless years the Pinns have excelled in wood carv- ing for which their abundant forests furnish ample material. A group of | bears carved in the round, and some quaint figures make an interesting section of this show. But Finland in recent years has been going forward, developing her industries as well as her homecrafts, and a large part of the present dis. play consists of glass, factory made, but engraved by hand, in some in- stances also handblown. This is in various colors, blue and amber and ash as well as pure crystal. Good forms have been chosen and the deco- —Star Staff Photo. rations for the most part consist of typical Finnish figures. Finland’s neighbor, Sweden, has been a leader in this field and the Orrefors glass has become world famous. We in this country are following closely—and we believe creditably—in Sweden’s lead. So also it is seen in Finland. In fact, already the Helsingfors glass i widely and favorably known. The tableware of pottery is mod- ernistic in design but well adapted to use. Of all the exhibits shown the iron work is the least meritorious and impressive. Obviously the danger which confronts Finland in the de- velopment of her industrial arts is that which confronts all of our older nations today—of holding on to tradi- tion without being enslaved by it; and also of preserving quality when producing in quantity. Perhaps the brightest spot in this exhibition, and one which gives best assurance of continuity in merit, is that occupied by the dolls, big and little, in native costume. A nation | which makes and plays with such | dolls is still imbued with the spirit of youth and capable of fresh adventure. A private view of this exhibition was | given yesterday afternoon for a group of Washingtonians especially inter- | ested in art following a luncheon at ‘whxch the Minister of Finland and Mme. Jarnevelt and the Secretary of Commerce and Mrs. Roper were guests ! of honor. The company included Dr. | Abbet, secretary of the Smithsonian Institution: Mr. Parsons, representing | the Corcoran Gallery of Art; Eugene Meyer, owner of the Post: Newbold Noyes of The Star, the public libra- | rian, Dr. Bowerman; Donald Wood- ward, through whose courtesy the col- lection is given display; Louis Bony- hard, the commissioner from Finland in charge; the art critics of the local papers and others. ‘The collection comprises over 10,000 items and will be shown later in other cities. Guppies Stage Contest Compete for Aquarium Honors as Offi- cial Relates Details of Private Lives. BY WILLIAM A. BELL, Jr. “The fish, when he's exposed to air, Loses all trace of savoir faire, But in the water regains his balance And exploits all his manly talents—" —Ogden Nash. N THE water of 37 illuminated tanks set up in the Commerce Department Aquarium, about 50 guppy couples displayed their manly and womanly talents last night for the inspection of three judges at the annual guppy show of the National Aquarium Society. ‘The foreign entries—from Baltimore, East Falls Church and West Falls Church—swam away with most of the prizes. Likewise, it was men’s night, for the female guppies don’t count. ‘They’re just put in the tanks to keep the men folk looking their spriest. Individual honors went to a Mr. Robert V. Holland of Baltimore, who imported seven aquariums for the oc- casion and won four prizes. One of his awards was a tank of common or garden goldfish. He has an aquarium in his home with 4,000 fish and said he’d be darned if he was going to carry coals to Newcastle, or, rather, goldfish to Baltimore. So he left this prize with Mrs. Grace L. Costinett, society president. The judges were two members of the EREF i i ] ' i B 15T it i B i : T 4 £ drained fish pond.” His wife used to get annoyed—fish all over the | raise a window having to move a dozen tanks.” “But now she nurses ’em like they were her babies,” he added. One Bruised in Jump. Holland was disturbed because “one of my females” jumped out of her tank on the trip from Baltimore and “bruised herself pretty badly.” And he was surprised when one of his male guppies, a big fellow with a sail- like dorsal fin and pearl-colored mark- ings, failed to win first prize in the non-members class. “That'’s the finest guppy in this Another of Holland’s collection won the first prize in that class, however, and that made it all right. There were nearly as many entries as there were prizes, so just about everyone went away with a ribbon, a tank, some fish food or an aquarium light. ‘Winners, by classes, were: Members—J. S. Kauffman, 2874 Perry street northeast, first; Clarence ‘Weidemann, 3124 Mt. Pleasant street, second; Charles E. F. Gersdorff, 1825 North Capitol street, third and fourth; Dr. Paul W.

NEW YORK, October 10.—Residen- tial building in the first nine months of 1936 totaled 23 per cent more than was reported for the entire year of 1935, F. W. Dodge Corp. reported. “The full year promises to reach a volume three times the size shown for either 1933 or 1934 the low points of the depression,” the report said. The volume of this type of building in the 37 Eastern States during this pe- riod amounted to $588,030,600, against $338,907,500 for the same nine months of 1935, a gain of 73 per cent. For September alone, the residential total was $80,669,800, compared with $41,- 810,800 for September, 1935, and $100,522,500 for August of this year. Commenting on current condition, the Dodge organization said: “In pre-depression days residential building led all other classes by a wide margin. During September there oc- curred for the first time since the final quarter of 1928 a residential total in | excess of that for either non-residen- | tial building or heavy civil engineering. This change in relationship repre- sents a healthy development, and within the near future the predomi- | nance of residential building may again likely become the usual rela-| tionship rather than the exception ne.” ‘Total construction work of all kinds started in the 37 Eastern States dur-} ing September amounted to $234.- and $167,376,200 for September last year, the report said. A reduction in the volume of publicly financed eon-’ struction largely accounted for the| shrinkage between August and Sep- tember of this year. For the first nine monthe of 1936 total construction in the 37 States amounted to $2,041,627,200, a gain of 71 per cent over $1,191,697,700 shown in the same nine months of last year. Both public works and private work ' contributed to’ make the large gain shown between the two years in total construction. NEW YORK COTTON By che Associated Press.

CHICAGO, October 10.—Faced by Liverpcol wheat values hovering around season’s peak levels, and Liver» cents overnight jump, the Chicago wheat market today scored material gains. Emphasizing reports of tense Euro- pean political conditions were cable dispatches telling of increased scarcity of trans-Atlantic spot and nearby wheat supplies and of firmness of all shippers’ offers. Furthermore, Buenos Aires quotations vied in strength with those at Liverpool. It was indicated that Argentine exporters were having difficulty getting wheat from farmers, with the Argentine government re- fusing to sell.

Corn, oats and rye sympathized with wheat strength, but corn and oats afterward eased, owing to bearish in- terpretations that in some quarters were put on the Government crop re- port as to corn.
