OAR. HAS ITS USUAL
FIGHTING BLOOD UP
Great Deal OF Hard Feeling Cropping
Ont In Annual Election Agony
For President General.
SHARP CRITICISM OF
MRS. STORY'S ADMINISTRATION
Charge That Monthly Meetings OF
Governing Board Has Robbed
Western states of Proper Share OF
Influence In Orders Affairs.

Washington, April 20.--This was an
twentyfourth annual congress of the
society of the ID. a. r. The business
in hand was all of a routine character,
but incident 10 it's consideration a
great deal OF hard feeling cropped out
among the partisans of the two can
didates for the office of president
general limitations were made from
time to time by the supporters Of
Mrs. George T. Guernsey, or Kansas
that the administration OF Mrs. Will
liam Cumming Story. the present
president general. had dealt unfairly
with its opponents Sharp replies
were made by the adherepts of Pres!-
story Chief considera-
ton Was given today to reports made
by various committees and at least
TWO Of these reports were hurdened
with thinly yelled allegations of a
lack OF cooperation on the part of
President General story and other
national officers.
The fight for the Office Of presi dent
general is being conducted this year
with the same warmth and PARTISAN
ship that have marked such contests
In the past. The controversy is IA
lively one and has evoked sharp
criticisms OF the present adminstra-
ton of the society by Mrs. Guernsey,
the opposing candidate for preside
general. and those who are supporting
her. In statement issued today Mrs.
Guernsey charged that as things are
now going the control of the society
has been taken over 10y a compare
lively few State deleations,. An at
tack was made by Mrs. Guernsey on
the policy of Mrs. story on holding
monthly meetings OF the national
board, which is the dominating body
Of the society. Mrs. Guernsey in
sisted that this policy had virtually
robbed western members of the board
OF representation on this body. be-
cause of their inability to stand the
expense OF twelve trips 10 Washing
ton year. Supporters of Mrs. Story
have expressed great Indignation over
these charges, dcClaJ .ng that the
president-eneral haas been actuated
in the conduct OF her administration
by the highest motives.

Hyomei is an oil and its air lis
