The com mittee on bills and overtures submit ted an unfavorable report on the question of union with the northern and southern branches of the Fres byterian church of the United States The proposition will be voted on by the assembly late this afternoon, n was said. The majority report gave three reasons for its action in failing to favor the union of the churches. "First," it icportcd, "because tr.crt: seems to be no general demand for union of these churches in the souin "7i church, and second only six of the 86 of the Presbyteries have con sented to consider the matter." The third reason was "because the Presbytery of New York was per sistently continued to license for the ministry those who have denied car dinal points of doctrine. They have licensed men" who do not believe in the resurrection of the Lord; do noi believe in the virgin birth and have denied the resurrection of Lazrus."

Both took an appeal to the superior court. Chief of Police Lentz, Serg!eait Sigmon and Special Officer Fry seized Lail and Gilbert near the Brue Fry Plow factory with 14 gallons of Burke county booze in their possession and a few days later Deputy Collector P.

Before the war Germany sold lar gely of these materials here, but now the Italians are going it alone. They have developed self-reliance as a national asset, and this lasting re sult of the war should improve the market for American products.

So well was the secret kept by the newspapers cooperating with the government that it was supposed the mission was still in the United States and invitations have been received every day for the members to visit American cities.

The admin istration's determination to enforce a newspapeh censorship through a section of the espionage bill which was supposed to have been abandoned came to the fore again today and threatened a fight all around. Pres ident Wilson today summoned the senate conferees to the white house for a conference on the bill. It was thought he placed the matter before them in much the same way as in the letter to Representative Webb last night. The senate conferees have been holding out against the section, as the senate voted against the bill. The house conferees favor a modified censorship, which has the administra tion's support. THE AMBULANCE QUESTION At a meeting of the executive com mittee of the Hickory auxiliary o f the American Red Cross held May 22, it was decided by the committer that the Hickory auxiliary, as an organization would not raise funds. at the present time to fit out an am bulance to be sent to France. As this question has been widely dis cussed both by members of the aux iliary and -others, who while not mem-! bers, are interested in the work, it was thought wise to inform the pub-' lie through the Record, just why they, come to this decision. j Briefly, it is because the ambulance j would be fitted out for the "Ameri-i can Ambulance Society and not foi i the American Red Cross and the com-j mittee felt that no matter how neces-j sary or worthy the cause of the American Ambulance Society, that as a Red Cross auxiliary, we should con centrate our efforts on the Rel Cross work and not weaken the society by undertaking a side issue. The ques tion may arise, why not raise an am bulance from Hickory and send it direct to the Red Cross? The fol lowing quotation from a letter re ceived by the chairman from depart ment of medical relief disposes of that question: "Replying to your favor of May 10, the Red Cross is trying to raise an am bulance company in North Carolina. However, this unit, when organized will be transferred to the medical de partment of the United States army and there is absolutely no necessity for the chapter in Hickory to at tempt to purchase an ambulance for this unit. With this letter before them, the committee decided that if an ambu lance is to be raised it must be done by private subscription and not by the Hickory auxiliary. Uncle Andy Carnegie, through the Carnegie Foundation, has informed the city of Hickory that he will hand over $11,000 for a library buil ding in this city when the authori ties have selected the site and plans, and it is now Hickory's move. The matter was discussed at tnt. meeting of city) , council Tuesday night and it is desired that the ladies of the Library Association, the Com munity Club and Chamber of Com merce and other interested organiza tions and individuals get busy at once. AH the Carnegie foundation desires to know Js that proMon has been made for maintaining the library, that a site has been selected and that the plans are sensible. The foundation suggests that it be al lowed to approve them, and sugges tions accompanied the letter to the city manager on the various types of buildings. Considering the fact that the foun dation is donating $11,000 without charge, the request is considered modest. It is hoped that the selec tion of a site and the adoption of plans can be agreed on as soon as possible, so that the building can be available by winter. The citizens of Hickory at a spec ial election in March voted five cents on the hundred . dollars to maintain the library and the sum to be raiseo annuallly will amount to about $1,200 for a year or two, increasing of course as the town grows in popula tion and wealth. 'Council Tuesday night decided to place a number of street lights in addition to those in service. Sixth street will receive three new ones, and the dark corners of Eighth, Fourteenth, Fifteenth and Twenty second streets will be illuminated. City Manager Ballew was instruct ed not to issue licenses to pool rooms for the fiscal year beginning June 1 and these alleged nuisances will not be continued in Hickory. Town and cities have direct authority un der the new revenue and machinery act to prohibit the operation of pool rooms and council will follow local sentiment in refusing license what is admitted to be expensive eviL LIGHT AT SALISBURY iSaMsbury, June 23.-Hail occur red in Rowan county last night, but the damage was slight.
