Methodists Order Bishops fo Consult Pastors on Transfers Minister Again Fails In Move for Protest Against Police Call By the Associated Press, ATLANTIC CITY. N. J.,, May 1.— The General Conference of the Methodist Church voted today to require bishops and district super- intendents to “make all effort” to *consult with pastors before assign- ing them to any church. Although most Methodist pastors are consulted before their transfers, this was the first time the bishops and superintendents were required to do so under church law. ‘ The Rev. Dr. Henry Hitt Crane, | pastor of the Central Methodist Church in Detroit, tried for a second time. without su S. 1o present to the conference a resolution protest- ing against the calling of police last | Saturday when Representative Dies of Texas spoke The local Entertainment Commit- tee called police to prevent a group of young men from distributing | circulars protesting the presence of | Mr. Dies and the “methods” used by his House committee for investiga- tion of un-American activities. Expects Action Tomorrow. Bishop Adna Wright Leonard of Pittsburgh, presiding, ruled Dr. Crane’s resolution was “out of order.” Dr. Crane said he expected Action tomorrow on his measure which says. “We do not wish to have any policemen brought into this conference to prevent dissemination of circulars on any subject. because it is as necessary to maintain civil liberities in this conference as any- where else.” Committee reports urging Presi- dent Roosevelt to recall his personal peace envoy to the Vatican and ask- ing the church to go on record re- qQuesting the United States to re- main out of the European war, were before the conference. The Interdenominational Rela- tions Committee of the Methodist Church reported to the general con- ference vesterday that: “His (Myron C. Taylor's) appoint- ment has created a spirit of un- easiness and resentment in the minds of a great number of peovle. and instead of promoting peace has engendered discord and strife, which £eems calamitous at this time when there is imperative need for har- monious united action on the part of all those who fear God and love righteousness.” Bishops' Statement Indorsed. Asserting the principles expressed n the Bill of Rights could be pre- served only by maintaining a com- | plete separation of church and state. the committee indorsed a statement made last week by the Council of Bishops obposing “any establishment of diplomatic rela- tions between the Vatican and the United States.” The 776 conference delegates. | representing more than 7.000.000 members of the Methodist Church, | may reject. modifv or make the re- port an official pronouncement of the Methodist Church. Committee Backs Neutrality. The other report, asking the United States to remain neutral and help build a “federation of nations.” was submitted by the Committee on the State of the Church, headed by ‘Dr. E. F. Tittle of Evanston, Ill “We believe.” the committee said “that the making of world peace Involves the surrender of the claim of absclute national sovereignty. | Nations should reserve to themselves ; the right to determine their own form of government and their own way of life; but they should con- | sent to be guided by some interna- tional body in the making of dei sions, as regards tariff. currency, immigration, etc., that are bound to affect. for good or for ill, the total life of the world.” THE CHEERFUL CHERUB I know yov know that ring is here,’ nd yet T tell you, for the reason That poets always sing of spein And over- 1 advertise 3 5)' < g this season. | done about it and a few years later C.

Scullen of the School of Engineering and Architecture at Catholic University was probably one of the few who were not surprised. Thirty-six . years ago he had stood on the very same scene and watched relief operations for a seven-car train that had leaped the track killing three people.

Delivery of Milk In Chicago Halted As Drivers Strike Dealers and Union Fail To Reach Agreement On Wage Contract By the Associated Press. CHICAGO. May 1.—Several hun- dred thousand Chicago and subur- ban residents went without milk and cream for breakfast this morning. A strike voted by the Milk Wagon Drivers’ Union halted virtually all home deliveries in the metropolitan area Drivers stopped work because of a dispute over a new wage contract with the Associated Milk Dealers of Chicago. Their old contract ex- pired at midnight last night. Negotiations between union repre- sentatives and the dealers broke down shortly before 2 am. and union officials announced the strike | Wwas on. Dealers sought a contract calling for a wage scale of $30 per week ! plus commissions. The union held | out for the old scale of $48 plus sions Residents in the metropolitan area consume more than 1.500,000 quarts | of milk daily. An estimated 48 per | cent is home delivered. i Approximately 4,000 drivers were | affected by the dispute. Most of them attended a mass meeting last night and early today at which the | strike decision was reached. Frank Gillespie, president of the Dairy Employes' Union, announced | that the approximately 2,000 mem- bers of his union would join tl strike. Both the “inside worker: and the drivers’ unions are A.

Milk dealers contended an imme- | diate pay slash was required by the increased unit cost of distribution by wagon.

C.; Would Like Round-Table Parley The Securities and Exchange Com- mission today was confronted with a challenge from the Commonwealth and Southern Corp. in the move to require the giant holding company to dispose of its properties under the “death sentence” provision of the Holding Company Act.. The company’s attitude was set out yesterday in a formal reply to| the commission’s show cause order | of March 6 in which the S. E. C.| said it believed the $1,200,000,000 system, which operates utilities in 10 States, did not meet the law's| requirements for a “single integrat- ed system” and asked what the company intended to do. The corporation’s answer, signed | by its president, Wendell L. Willkie, | a frequent critic of the S. E. C., said STAR, WASHINGTON, that any order which would require Commonwealth & Southern or one of its subsidiaries to divest itself of any securities or properties now owned would be contrary to the intent and provisions of the act, would be unlawful and in violation of the Constitution of the United States. In New York, according to the New York Times, Mr. Willkie said that the position taken by the cor- poration was necessitated by the desire to preserve its legal rights and was not to be construed as an indication it intended to fight the constitutionality of the act to the Supreme Court. “If it is at all possible,” he was quoted, “I am willing to make a sincere effort to work out the entire integration problem of our system at a round-tahle conference with members of the Securities and Ex- | change Commission.” Education Council to Meet Educators associated with the American Council on Education will participate in the 23d annual | meeting of the council Friday and Saturday at Wardman Park Hotel. Dr. George F. Zook, president of the council, expecis representatives of more than 300 educational in- stitutions and organizations. The session will be open to the public. YES'M!

That’s a fair question. Here’s the answer — Experts agree that oil shrinkage in dried paint is a major eause of paint failures. The “oil is the life of the paint.” When it shrinks the paint becomes hard and brittle. The pigment is left exposed to stam and disintegration. Now, O’Brien Paints are made with oils actually pre-shrumk, before being mixed into paint, by an O'Brien-patented process. That's why O'Brien Paints look better, longer!
