~ LUTHERANS FROWN ON STRICT SUNDAY Blué Laws Camnot Change Man's Mind, Charchmen Say Chicago, June 21 UM—Over-strict Sabbath observances and blue ‘aws were condemned today at the 34th triennial convention of the Evangeli cal Lutheran Synod as not faithfully interpreting Christianity and as causing harm. “The Christian religion is not a creed of morbid restrictions and dampening prohibition,” it was de- clared in & statement of the chuich's code of belief. “The Lutheran church believes that those teachers in the outward Christian church who insist upon the Old Testament spirit and legislation for a day and age when ‘old things are passed away’ are not only misinterpreting the evident intention of our Lord, but are guilty of the more serious sin of keeping men away from Christ”" In denouncing efforts to restore Puritanical Sabbath observances, the Lutheran confessions asserted that the Saobath era has passed away. “Further, legislation can only re- strain,”. the statement adds, “it cannot reform. Laws can remove temptation to do wrong, but they eannot make a man will to do right. They can close up baseball parks and movie houses, but they cannot make a man temperate. Only the spirit of God, working through the Gospel, can produce real morality and righteousness.” Industrial Council Committees Selected The following men were appoint- edby Robert H.

Easy Iliness Would Secure “Cold Beer” Madison, Wis., June 21 (UP)— Here's how the Gettelman's state medicinal liquor commission plan would work, according to an ex- planation made to a senate visis tor today by Senator James A. Barker, wet colleague of the Mil- waukee legislator: “I'd have a party,” he said. “T'd invite you. Then I'd go down and write myself a prescription for a case of heer. When you came I'd say: ‘You don't look well. Do you think a bottle of cold beer would help you?' You'd say: ‘It probably would' and I'd glve it to you.

During a period of almost 20 years the treasury and the bureau of engraving and printing have had | under consideration - reduction in size of currency, together with the systematization and improvement of its design. But it was not until May 26, 1927. that agreement was reached and the secretary of the treasury announced adoption of the proposal to reduce the size. Many advantages are claimed for the new bills, which will be two- thirds the size of the old, or 6 5-18 by 2 11-16 inches. The bank tetller will find them easier to count, as they fit easily into the palm of the hand: they utilize a smaller bilifold without folding and thus keep their newness longer; they will fit into the stan- dard size malling envelope - without folding, and they will require less space for stacking in bank vaults and cash drawers and registers. But by far the most reagon for a change in design and size is economy. The treasury de- partment estimates that approxi- mately $2,000,000 a year will be saved.

Not since April 30 have any new notes of the old size been issued. The remainder of June will be re- quired to print and record the hun- dreds of millions of dollars in new bills and place them in the federal reacrve banks for distribution. These federal reserve banks will act as distributing agents in their separate flelde- and will arrange to supply the member and non- member banks. order the amount of new money they will need and then will dis- tribute it to the public, retiring an old bill for every new one put out. The old bills will be sent back to the federal reserve bhanks. WESLEYAN STUDENT FOURTH San Francisco. June 21 (®—Mil ton H. Willlams, student in Wes leyan University.
