BISHOPS URGE DEVOTION
BY ALL TOMORROW NOON
Believe Few Moments Should Be Set
Aside for Personal Contempla-
tion Of Christ.

All persons are urged to spend a few
moments at noon tomorrow in personal
contemplation Of Christ crucifled. in ac-
cordance with resolutions adopted by
the house of bishops of the Protestant
Episcopal Church. This plea has been
sent out to churches in all parts of the
country. Pointing out that many Chris
tian persons are unable ito share in
the age-long custom Of setting apart
Good Friday as a day of public and
private devotion in commemoration of
the sacrifice Of our Lord" it is urged that
they unite in at least a few minutes
devotion.
The bulletin. in explanation continues:
when a President of the United States
dies during his term of Office at the
cessation of business for a few moments
throughout the country; the country is
silent out Of respect for his memory.
When the president of a great railway
system dies there is a cessation of busi-
ness in its shops and offices for a few
minutes at the hour of his funeral; the
system is silent out Of respect for his
memory.
1.-The veterans of the Grand Army OBJ
serve few minutes silence at noon on
Memorial day in commemoration of the
death of their comrades 1t is the worlds
way of showing respect. There is no ex-
ton of thee sacrifice and death of the
worlds Savior by the great Christian
world. 1t observes Christmas in recog-
milton of His birth; it very largely OBJ
serves Easter in commemoration of His
resurrection; the church has it's eucha-
rist and its Good Friday services, but for
multitudes Of people who call themselves
Christians. who believe in Christ, who
honor His memory and trust in His
atoning death. there is no expression or
commemoration of His death which at
all corresponds with that Of His birth
and resurrection
1T is hoped that this may appeal to
them, that they may feel its reasonab BILE
ness and appropriateness, and that it
may draw them to that larger express
sion of faith and love which the church
affords; that il it is adopted and OBJ
served by cur own church it may appeal
to other Christian communions, as our
observance of Christmas and Good Fri
day has done. It is indeed a little thing,
utterly inadequate. but anything would
be INADEQUATE. and something is better
than nothing

GETS SC0WlS
FOR D|LAT0RY TACTICS
Blocking House Consideration Of
Bill Puts Off Day of Ad-
journment.

Representative Fowler of Illinois threw
Representatives today and prevented the
legislative, executive and judicial appro-
priation bill, which carries millions of dol
lars in salaries for government clerks,
from going beyond a three-mile-an-hour
gait. Some OF the speedier members of
the House. notably Representative
Byrnes OF Tennessee and Representative
Johnson of South Carolina, sat in their
seats and scowled their displeasure. but
they could not shake Representative Fow-
ler from his determination to block legis-
lation.
Mr.. Fowler has thrown the date Of the
adjournment ahead at least two weeks
by his tactics Of delay. In addition he
has knocked out of the legislative bill to-
day dozens Of salaries which were In
creases over the current law: he has
knocked out piece work in the Offices Of
the auditor for the Interior Department
and the auditor for the Post once De-
partment, and has absolutely refused to
retreat from his stand.
The trouble with the bill, according to
Representative Fowler. is that there is
no law auLnOf1ZluS SoIlo u LILO 6d1dIASo.
For instance, he knocked out the salary
of the chief Of the secret service bureau
because It was at a higher figure than
the law allowed.
Forces Committee Defense.
He also tackled the 500 additional
sum which is always granted to the life
saving service He has tangled up the
salaries in the Office Of the treasurer
because some Of the salaries have been
carried for twenty years at a higher rate
than authorized in the act on which the
Treasury is founded.
Mr. Fowler has accompanied each point
of order with a short speech on the policy
Of the democratic party. claiming that 1t
should not forget its promises of econ
omy, and has forced various members Of
the appropriations committee to come to
the defense of the bill and of the demo-
cratic party.
They have declared over and over again
that the bill merely carries the salaries
Of various employees as they have been
carried for twenty years. The increases
over the law, it Is declared, were made
many years ago and have always been
carried in the bill as such.
1t Is to be expected that all Of the items
knocked out under points of order will
go back into the bin in the Senate.
