would not be resumed for a year.

majority voted in favor OF equal laity
rights for both sexes, and following
the policy governing such amend
ments decided to give the annual con-
ferences the privileges of ratifying
their action. Mr.. G. A. Hanson. who
is a member Of the First Methodist
church of this city, and president Of
the Woman's Missionary movement
for the State, said this morning that
the women of the church believe they
are justly entitled to all laity priv
leges regardless Of whether they are
called on to use them.
II do not believe the women really
want to put these privileges into prao-
tice wherever and whenever the men
will 60 ahead and attend to church

many instances OF where the church
work is held back because the men

first interest in the hearts and minds
of Florida Methodism and will doubt
less receive first consideration at the
conference.
Movement Began in 1873
Since 1878 the women Of the Meth
cdist Episcopal church, South have
been asking the general conference,
either directly or indirectly, for q
larger share in the work of the
church. This request has been grant
ed as far as work is concerned, but
the women have not been allowed any
privilege In the annual conferences.
The conference annually assigns work
to the women, and expects equal re-
Spouse with that Of the men, but the
women are denied the privilege Of
sitting as delegate or appearing be-
fore the conference to make a report
Of the work accomplished by them ex
cept when invited on special occa-
stons.
AS the constitution is framed now
women cannot act on the board OF
stewards or as Sunday school super
intendents. They are handed out
their church assessments, however
just as the male members receive
their allotments.

under the Flood bill he would not pc

would not be affected by the Flood bill,
because. although these countries are
allied with Germany and Austria in the
war the United States has not declared
war against Turkey and Bulgaria.
Therefore. Turks and Bulgarians who
have taken out their first papers would
still have the right to vote.
