Certain articles. written by Pro
fessor John o. Evjen of Augsburg

printed in the official newspaper o.

cussion at the conference this morn.

The discussion on both sides wa:
conducted in a dignified manner. Ev.
cry speaker declared that he had
the welfare and unity of the Lutheran
Free church as the chief aim. Rev
Il. 0. Larson of Willmar. Mimi, said
that he was glad this discussion had
taken such a brotherly turn. He said
sft had brought to light that the aims
OF the church are one.
There may be difference of opin-
ion," the speaker said. but we al
agree in one essential truth, the sacred
rights and the liberties of the local
church" The outstanding feature OF
the discussion was the undivided and
intellectual interest taken in the great
affairs of the church by the lay people
who are Of the opinion that every
thing which can throw real light upon
the difficult question in the church
ought to be discussed amicably and
tolerated in a brotherly way. The
discussion continued throughout the
afternoon.
The printing of the word "and' for
that" gave the wrong impression OF
a statement made at the conference
Saturday morning by President
EVEN, which he asked the press
representative at the conference ia
have corrected. The statement in
question read:
1.-THE Lutheran Free church." said
the professor, is the only Lutheran
church body which teaches the new
testament truth and (that) the local
congregation is the true form for the
kingdom OF God on earth. The school
still educates its students in harmony
with this principle"

Of limitations for criminal prosecution

Attorney General regards as having de-
feated justice in some cases. and he
recommends that it be extended to three
years.
In enforcement OF the antitrust laws
the Attorney General says the depart
ment has been confronted by peculiar
conditions brought about by the war.
Increases of price, brought about not
by agreement, conspiracy or monopoly,
but by the common selfish impulse Of
traders to take advantage of the extra
ordinary condition of the times. are not
punishable under the antitrust laws,
the report says, no matter how COM
pletely. lacking they may be of eco
homie justification or how extortionate.
Sales of commodities by retailers to con-
sumers generally fall outside of inter-
state commerce. and therefore are not
within the purview of the federal laws.
Within such limitations Attorney Cen
eral Gregory says the Department of
Justice has utilized It's full energy.
The Attorney General devotes much of
his report to informing Congress Of the
steps he has taken to carry out the
measures against enemy aliens They in
clude cooperation of federal marshals
and troops with local authorities, and
go Into the legal procedure in great
detail.
