gists was delivered by President r. E.
Won KleinSmid of the University of
Arizona before a meeting OF the College

Sists and all psychologists should be
able to cure.
He referred to the psychological side

NOT To REPLACE
BISHOP NuELSON
lRepublican A. p. Leased Wirei


COLUMBUS, O., Jan. II. = Bishop
William f. Anderson of Cincinnati,
who was reported on December q
as having told officials of the Meth
odist Episcopal church from Indiana,
Ohio and Kentucky that he was 60
ing to Europe TO replace Bishop J.
l. Nuelson of the Methodist Episco-
pal church Of Europe, today denied
the truth of the report. He eX-
planned that his mission was under
taken because up to the outbreak of
the war the church had been at
tempting practically the impossible
by the effort to administer all our
great institutions in Europe through
one bishop. In view of present con-
ditions, the work now has been di-
vided between Bishop Nuelson and
myself"
Bishop Anderson emphasized that
there was no intention of replacing
Bishop Nuelson.
