The recommendation of the com mission will be submitted to the gen- i . . . m . . . i ei cuntorencrf lor final uwuiaiwn. si committee of 10 was appointed to J prepare the recommendations for sub-j mission to thS'conrerence. Under the new constitution of the Methodist church, there would be supreme general conference composed of seven reslonal conferences. Hlx of these would consist of white members !l averaging about one million mem ber each and the other one would em brace the. entire negro membership of 301,000. The general conference which has governed the churches since their di vision In 184$ after a disagreement over the slavery question, will lose some of it power. Regional and local conference would have entire control of their respective regions except in general matter. Bishops will bs chosen by local conferences, subject to confirmation by the , genera con ference. A Judicial council of 15 members will review constitutional matters of all conferences and in fact will be the final court of appeals. The merger recommendations pro vided that a general council shall be composed of 100 members chosen by the regional conferences In propor tion to the membership. It will meet every four years. It wa said after the meetinr had been adjourned tonight that the northern church conference will meet next May in Des Moines. Iowa, to vote on the merger plan.

He -declares this section apparently con fers upon federal officials or post masters-general power, "to refuse mailing privileges to a newspaper without a hearing and without no tlce, provided the official finds some letter, statement, argument or pic ture which, in hi opinion, is objec tionable and falls within the statue. No review by any magistrate or court is required. ' r , The request to editors to register protest by wire is necessitated, the statement said, because of the sud den call by the rules committee for hearing Thursday on the bill "de fining sedition and gravely affecting the freedom of the press." "Owing to the shortness of the no tice, it is obviously impossible for the American press to be adequately represented," Mr. Glass said. INSURGENTS MAKE ATTACK ON DERBENT EO TO ASSIST VANDEflFORO Small Assails G. O.P. Ac tion on the Rivers and Harbors Bill. a Will MM" of National THRIFT WEEK . . i ... "Don't Wait till 'You're III Before Making a Will" On no less authority than the word of "the ancient philosopher, King Solomon, we are assured that the de scent of property vexed the mind of man for many gen erations. The future, for a particular estate, could . be forecast upon no more substantial supposition than the silent question mark- sustained perhaps by hope, but sore beset by doubt. Why should a man toil to accumu late wealth when he could not guard its security by a mandate to direct its employment after his death? Thus 'did men reason and so, largely, were they governed, until there was added to human life the power to manage an estate after death which power may be exercised by makingaWill. A tremendous stride in the advancement of civiliza tion, the invention of the Will was. Since then, the world's wisest thought has provided safeguards for the Will, has shaped its use, has standardized its form and has improv ed it to the point of utmost value and utility to mankind. May we assert that the Will is superior, as an individual instrumentality, to the statutes on inheritance and de scent? Surely this is true, for the law itself has placed the Will literally ABOVE the law. (Spsolal to Ths Cltlsn.) WASHINGTON, D. C, Jan. 20. The appointment of Col. John 8.
