In introducing the resolution DR..

the change would be unconstitutional.

This assertion was greeted with APP

bishops live in a sleeping car with a
dress-suit case is entirely undesirable.

Berry.
The memorial was unanimously APP
proved.
81 wish it were legitimate for me to
vote with you,' said Bishop Berry after
he had announced the result of the
vote.
Another memorial adopted was one
recommending that the appointive
power of the bishop should be curbed.
This provides for making a law Of
what is now the general practise,
namely, the consultation of the bishop
and the district superintendent before
any appointments are made by the
former.
d.. Urmy introduced a memorial
recommending the appointing of a COM
mittee to revise the ritual. particularly
in regard to the wording OF certain
sections.
The memorial of Rev. Charles S.
Kemble, of Plaindeld, recommending
the restoration of a time limit system,
was treated very much as a joke by
the ministers and was laid on the table.
Another memorial recommended the
change of the word "supernummerary,"
as applied to supply pastors, to
preachers on leave of absence"
In the afternoon former Governor
Edward c. Stokes and former Governor
j. Franklin Fort addressed a meeting
of the Laymen's Association.
In executive session today seven
graduates of the Drew Theological
Seminary, Madison, were ordained
elders by the conference. In a short
address to the young men. Bishop
Berry said:
There is greater need of pastoral
fidelity, especially in the visiting side
of the work. Nowadays the tendency
is toward greater pulpit efficiency and
less active house-to-house activity. You
young men must get into heart-touch
with your people. You must know their
needs and understand their natures"
The men ordained are:

rapidly as possible, but as yet he could
not give definite figures of the number

is true there will be no violence. We
do not need to use violence, and We
do not intend to use it. Already We

The strike, so far as the Industrial
Workers of the World are concerned,
will be peaceful; but we will not be
blinded by mere promises from the mill
wners. We intend to get our rights,
and unless the mill owners want their
plants to rot in idleness we will get
