HOUSE PASSES

Williams said he welcomed ssthe op--
portunity to illustrate to the coun-
try how quickly and how rapidly we
can join in passing remedial leg
islature. The democrats applaud
ed the statement. Continuing, he
said the democrats win be glad to
be furnished with more like it .'and
to repeat the illustration as each
remedial bill is furnished to the
house" It was, he said, 'sthe first
encouragement in some time.''
Mr.. Payne denounced the demo-
Gratis. led by Williams, for delaying
by an half hour, the passage Of the
bill by forcing roll call on APPROX
al of the journal. The gentleman
from Mississippi he said, .'seems
to think he will make the country
believe that because every time he
says I say this to the house and to
the country he can make the coun-
try believe that the way to facilitate
legislatio is by useless demand for
roll calls and delays in performing
the functions of the house and pass
ing supply bills that must be passed. y
He declared that Mr.. Williams had
no more to do with the bringing
about Of the report from the COM
mittee or consideration of the meas
ure than the boys of the street. It
has been, he said, a settled purpose,
of the minority to gring the bilF
before congress. Mr.. Payne feared
the bill would meet the same fate
with the supreme court as did the
former law, but he said he would
vote for it, nevertheless, as he had
voted for the previous bill, "and'r
he added, we will go on with the,
legislation Of the country and the
majority will decide in their own
time and without any hinderance
from the gentleman FROM Mississippi
and the voting trust, which 1t Is re-
ported he organized last Saturday to
stop legislation

vote but in order that members
might be recorded the yeas and

New York, April 6.-The New York
conference of the Methodist Episcopal
church held an important session to-
day, at which several matters of mo-
ment to the denomination were debat-
ed and acted upon. One subject which
has created much comment, resoIu-
ton recommending to the general con.
ference that rule 248 of the church dis
cipline, which advises against dam
cling, card playing, theater going, etc..
be eliminated, was adopted by an al.
most unanimous vote. Much to the
general surprise, there was no debate
on this question. Only seven dele.
gates voted against the resolution.
II the general conference approves
the step. it was explained, it will not
mean that Methodism alters it's his.
toric position in respect to these
amusements, but simply makes them
matter of conscience
The conference also went on record
as favoring the election of negro bish-
ops and adopted memorial to the
general conference to that effect
1t entered protest against the
elimination of the name of Jesus
Christ in the public schools of New
York. This last subject caused spir-
tied debate and vigorous language was
engaged in regarding the action of the
New York board of education in the
matter.
