Moore, dtreo tor in' charge of the North Car olina Crop Improvement Associa tion at State College, warned this week. "If a seller of seed wishes to capitalize on the word 'Certified' he should be requested to deliver the evidence of certification In the form of a. certification tag j on which a Bigned agreement may be found," Dr. .Moore as serted. I Some dealers, he continued, engage In practices which often lead to misunderstanding and the purchase of seed which un der no circumstances would meet certification requirements. "Agencies* advertising certified seed, but stating or inferring that certification tags will be furnished only when requested, might sell only seed which is eligible for certification and again they faiay not," the Crop Improvement director explained.

Butler was the foun der and piffaeer of the work of the Methodist Church, was the guest of honor at the diamond jubilee of Methodist missions in Mexico from August 3 to 8. Miss Butler's father and her brother, the late Dr. John W. Butler, were also founders of Methodist missions (now grown into the in dependent Methodist Church of Mexico) in that land in 1873. As sociated with the jubilee, and with Miss Butler on the program, was the Methodist Women's As sembly of Mexico, August 2 and 3, attended by several hundred evangelical women, and drawing a large number of women miss ionary leaders from various parts of the United States. Because there are 162 women to every 107 men in Germany, and because most of the men are in the old and the very young age groups, wonjen are coming to have a more and more important place in the life of present-day Germany, believes Mrs. Harper Sibley, of Rochester, N. Y., lead er of Protestant Episcopal and United Council of Church Wom en organizations, who is spending this summer in Germany. She is there at the request of the War Department of the United States to help in making clear to German women something of the activities of American women in church jand community life.

B As each of the political party conventions met this summer, the United Council of Church Wom en, representing ten million Prot estant churchwomen, presented to the platform committees some "principles basic to human well being and to world peace." These Included fulfillment of America's obligations a? a member of the United Nations, support of a re ciprocal trade program, ratifica tion of the proposed UN Coven ant and the Declaration of Hu man Rights, the restoration of policy-making powers to civilian control, and the making valid of constitutional rights of every per son in the U.

This last, it was suggested, was to be achieved by elimination of lynching and mob 1 violence, removal of the poll tax, J elimination of discrimination in employment practices, housing and education. These, the wom en say, are what we want. Advising Indian Christians? including the educated women who are largely from the Chris tian minority?to accept public offices in the new governments of India and Pakistan, the Rev. Richard W. Moore, of Iowa, Methodist missionary in United Provinces, says: "There are even now many Christian government officials, far out of proportion to' the number of Christians. The citizens honor Christian officials! for they know they can be trust-1 ed and will do their work with' honesty and a sense of civic re-J spoiisibility. Bribery is well nigh universal in government de-| partments; kow-towing to the rich and well-born, and brow beating and grinding down the poor or the low caste man have always been present and are likely to increase since the de parture of the British."
