PRESIDENT ISSUES CALL
FOR CONGRESS APRIL 11
Body Will Then Receive Legis
lative Recommendations
From New Administration
A formal call for an extra session
of congress, to meet on April 11 and
receive legislative recommendations
from the new administration, was is
sued Tuesday by President Harding.
None of the specific problems to be
laid before the legislative branch
were named in the proclamation, the
President merely declaring that an
extraordinary occasion required that
congress convene, "to receive such
communication as may be made by
the executive."
Mr. Harding has already indicated
however, that the tariff and taxation
wm ue ioremosi in nis message to
the special session. He is expected to
make a special plea for prompt relief
to the nation's agricultural interests
and the list of recommendations may
touch many other subjects, such' as
the railway situation, the merchant
marine, and immigration.
One recommendation relative - to
reconstruction measures within the
government machine itself is expect
ed to suggest the creation of a gener
al commission to dispose of many
kinds of property acquired by gov
ernment agencies durine the war.
Whether the emssage will touch on
foreign relations is a matter of spec
ulation, but the President has indi
cated that his primary desire for the
session is that, it work out a plan of
governmental and industrial rehab
ilitation at home.
VISIT VVASJN EVENT
Local Methodism Had -Red Let
ter Day When Head of
Churches of the Caroli
nas Preached Here
Bishop U. V. W. Darlington was in
Morganton Sunday and his visit here
was considered an epochal event in
local Methodism. By the time' the
service began Sunday morning, the
Methodist church and Sunday school
room were crowded to their doors and
many were turned away.
The sermon was rated by all who
heard it as one of the best ever de
livered here, full of inspiration and
power, and moving with noticeable
eltect the large congregation tnai lis
tened to it with the closest attention.
"The Testing Time" might, have
been Bishop Darlington's subject,
though he announced no subject, and
throughout the magnificent discourse
he presented often the thought that
there are turning points in every life
that decide the life here and hereafT
ter. He quoted that well known
couplet: '-V
"There is a time we know not when,
A place we know not where,
That marks the destiny of man ;
For glory, or despair."
The story in the last chapter of St.
John's gospel was used as the, basis
for the lesson. The disciples' are
shown there to have leen very much
discouraged. They, had seen Christ
fipfl and evervthins: that had
, , a ! 1.1
PTiiaea tnem naa ueen. wn ;
"We go fishing" was their decision,
TtiPanine'. of course, that they would
go back to their old lives, forsaking
the work that Christ had begun and
had left them to carry on. At this
critical time Christ appeared to them
and with him mesent their faith was
renewed and new. courage put. into
their hearts.
That was the testing time in their
lives, the bishop brought out. Christ
was with them through the trial and
they came out victors, and were com
missioned anew with the words "Feed
my lambs."
It was a wonderfully touching and
beautiful story, told in the simple lan
guage that marks the effective speak
er and in a way that reached the
hearts of the congregation.
