W. K. Johnson, retiring sec retary of the board, . -s The announcement, coming on top of tne decision of - the Methodists of the state to build a new Methodist church here and the recent completion of new JTeshyterian church, is 1 regarded as a "important extension of denom inational work at the university, and the news has been received with great Interest and satisfaction. . Largely under the lead of the Rev. Charles E, MAddry, corresponding sec retary of, the Baptist state convention, a new lot has already been bought for the new chureh on Columbia street, a.n.J plans are under wajf . for raising 4 the money. The ; lot Ts centrally located and will serve admirably for chureh purposes. , . "J. "The present plan of the state boarfl cf 'Baptist missions," said the Rev. Mr. Johnson here recently "is to obtain a well known , Preacher arid professor ef; - Bible and religion to co-operat with the, university In s;lvlng; courses. The church-wil be eiuiped with. class rooms and being near the campus can give courses in Bible and religion not given hy the university. Arrangement will be made, we hope, : so that v the university will supervise and give credit for the. courses." . Mr. Johnson said that $30,000 , bad already ben raised for the new churc that more was eomlnsr in all the time, and that there was little doubt about obtaining the full amount. Architects have "already been consulted and the new bulldlne will, be of the most mod ern type, .fully equipped for the pecu liar Kind of sej?vce that It will peri form. ' v . Part of the money, will be rained In Chapel-Hillj; but the bulk of lt wll come from Baptists all over the state who wlshvthe 266 Baptist students at .the university to have a tlarsre enough church for their use. .: - FRENCH WlI.Ii OPEN PURSE ' v OF GERMANS FOR ALL TO SEE PARI8, feb. 26. -(By Associated Press)-The Questions of reparation!

"As is generally the case when run In anything starts, con-; fidence weakensr and this bas been true -of. cotton recently. A great deal ofL the selling seems entlrsly unwar ranted., domestic spinners ' are fairly well,, sold throughV' March, .and resh orders are coming In, Bids would be raised with cotton prices firming up, thus insuring continuous spinning op erations. Many spinners believe that cotton prices axe on, or nesting bottom, and, in consequence, anticipating ton ing. up of prices in the -goods market. The reparation . meeting in London, scheduled for "March 1. if settled ami cably, should pave the way for Te turn to normal commercial activities which,, synchronizing with the change in our government and the acceptation of the secretaryship of commerce by Mr. Hoover, a' progressive man, thor oughly familiar with European condi tions, personally Mtima;e with the leaders should mean a long step in the betterment of conditions.
