TALL DEMANDS u. S.
| PROTECT CITIZENS

WASHINGTON. July 22.-An attempt
by Senator Fall of New Mexico to force
the senate to enunciate a strong policy
of protection for American citizens in
foreign countries precipitated a lively
debate today which demonstrated ap-
probation on the part of the senators
of the gravity of the Mexican situation
and the necessity for a determined
stand by the United States.
Denunciation of the policy of delay
of the Taft administration empha1icaly
was pronounced by Senator Fall and
blamed by him for the present critical
situation which, he said, could have
been prevented by a sterner national
policy
This declaration was approved by
Senator Lodge of Massachusetts. who
expressed disappointment that the new
president and new secretary of7state
had not inaugurated different Mexican
policy.
Senator Fall called up his resolution
which would commit the governme
TO full protection of the constitutional
rights" of American citizens in foreign
nations.

Especial Dispatch to The Cal)
WOODLAND. July 22.-Empty pews
in ST. Luke's Episcopal church here
were the outward signs last Sunday OF
the controversy that ..has arisen be
tween the Rev. Edward John Baird,
rector. and the four most prominent
and wealthy vestrymen.
The controversy was. marked at the
last meeting of the vestry by physical
violence displayed by the rector. when
he elected from the meeting E. w.
Armfield. an attorney.
The four members of the board are
accused by the minister of failure to
make a systematic report on funds.
They are C. w. Bush. president OF the
Bank of Yolo and former treasurer or
the church, and III. e. Coil, Z. q. Nell
son and George Merritt, retired ranch
ers and capitalists of Woodland.
MONETARY ASPECT OF CASE
AS commentary on the monetary
aspect of the dispute it is estimated
that the four men questioned by the
clergymen have in the aggregate sub
scribed nearly $4,000 to the building
fund of ST. Luke's, while the amount
over which the dispute is raging Is but
a fraction of that amount.
Of the four involved three-Coil, Mel
son and Merritt-have been questioned
regarding the building fund, and Bush
has been taken to task by the rector
concerning other church funds. Fail
ure to account properly for the money
is the basis of the clergyman's accu-
sations.
Rev. Mr.. Baird is in Alameda, where
he went after the Sunday service,
which was attended by only two wor-
shippers of the congregation.
The rector of ST. Lukes is a graduate
of Princeton university, where he was
a classmate of President Wilson. He
is a strong and athletic man.
DEMANDED BETTER ACCOUNTING
At the last meeting of the vestry he
asked for a more systematic account
ing of the building and other church
accounts and that led to a vigorous
dispute among the officers. Attorney
Armfield, representing Mr.. Bush, en-
ton in the matter and dissensica i'm
mediately arose. 1t ended by the Ger
gyman ejecting Mr.. Armfield from the
meeting. Mr.. Bush followed his lawyer
and the gathering broke up.
1t is said that the rector's following
Is stronger than Sundays attendance
would indicate.
The case will be laid before Bishop
w. II. Moreland of Sacramento when he
returns from his vacation. Bishop
Moreland will act as arbiter in the
matter.

Minister in Alameda

ALAMEDA. July a2.-Revs Edward
John Baird, rector of St. Luke's church,
Woodland, said yesterday that the
trouble between himself and Z. w.
Armfield, the Woodland attorney, whom
he elected from a yestry meeting, fol-
lowed as a consequence of the defeat
of c. w. Bush for e-election as treas
urer of the church. Mr.. Bush wanted
to attend the vestry meeting in spite
of his defeat, said the clergyman, and
Mr.. Armfeld was on hand to support
him. 1t took forcible measures to eject
them, according to Rev. Mr.. Baird.
The pastor claims that he has the
support of his congregation and that
the defeat of Mr.. Bush for reelection
as church treasurer is proof of that
fact Mr.. Bush resigned from the
church, as did his daughter, Miss Flor
ence Bush, the organist.
Rev. Mr.. Baird and his family are
stopping at 212S Clinton avenue, Ala

LOCAL COLLEGE
DEVEL0PINGFINE
GRADE OF CORN

The College of Hawaii in it's courso
in crop Improvement" is developing
superior strains Of five standard vari.
cites Of field corn suited to Hawaiian
conditions.
The main object sought after in the
experimental breeding work thus far
undertaken is to develop high yielding
strains CT uniform quality. The work
done by the agricultural students at
the college farm in Manoa during the
nast year has given results that are
highly noteworthy Some Of the ac-
tual yie'ts are exceeding 80 bushels
Der acre, with an average Of about 20
bushels per acre as an average for all
varieties tested. These are record
yields and show the value of thor
Cughbred seed stocks which are now
being developed with the same care as
is thoroughbred live stock.
Beginning December the College
Of Hawaii offers for free distribution
tn all who viii agree to report upon
the results Of their experimental plant
ings, two pounds of seed Of each of
the following four varieties. It re-
quires about eight pounds of seed to
plant an acre so that the seed allotted
to each applicant will be sufficient to
plant fourth acre of each of four va

A strain of this variety yielded at the
rate of 81 bushels per acre at the col

variety will probably proved itself well
suited to locations of low rainfall.
