Sky Only, Limit for Newspapermen;
Here Is One Who Became a Bishop
Rt. Rev. Charles Sumner Burch, for
Thirteen Years an Editor, Now One
of Joint Commission Directing Ma
tion-Wide Campaign.

Out of the noise and tension of editorial rooms
newspaper men have gone to positions strangely con-
trasted to those they left.
Here is one VINO left the editorial desk to achieve
"a bishops robes.
For IS years he was Charles Sumner Burch, news
paper editor of Kansas City and Detroit Today he is
the Right Rev. Charles Sumner Burch, Episcopal
bishop of New York
Formerly his words went from the typewriter to
the composing and so to the columns OF the
dailies to help mold public opinion. Now they go out
to the members of the Episcopal church in the diocese
of New York and beyond helping to inspire the church
to meet the responsibilities which the day of recon
struction has laid upon it.
For when the supreme body of the church, the tri-
cnnial general convention, met recently in Detroit

commission which, with the authority OF the entire
church behind it, is directing the $42OO0000 Episcopal
nationwide campaign by which the church plans to
expand its work every field and play its full part in
building new order out of the present chaos.
Bishop Burch saw-perhaps with the old news
sense"-the importance of the nationwide campaign
from the first. es
Providence" said he in his first pastoral address
to the diocese of New York. following his elevation
the bishopric has furnished u.s. at the beginning of
our mutual relationship, with task worthy of
highest powers. ....
THE nationwide campaign is intended to reach and
touch the life and purpose of every man, and
child connected directly remotely with the churchs
existence. If the church OF Christ is hold fast to
and conserve the great spiritual values won through the
heroic sacrifices willingly offered by our brave men
and boys in the worlds most tragic war; it awaken
in each man a keen of his individual RESPONSE

tate with the register of wills. Any
interest in his estate which fails to
be effectively disposed of is to re-

ment, expressive of the cordially of
the relations of Mr.. Frick and his
wife and children, reads:

MANY CHANCES
A R ( PROPOSED
IN REVENUE Law
Extension Of Class Of ''Per.
sonal Service" Corporations
Now Exempt From Part
nership Taxation Included.

Washington, Dec. 6.-Extension
of the class of personal service
corporations now exempt from part
nership and corporation taxation,
was among numerous changes in the

Other changes included were higflS
er tax levy on distilled spirits with
drawn for nonbeverage purposes,
but diverted to beverage uses, and
| a provision requiring soft drink"
parlors to furnish purchasers with
tickets indicating the amount of tax
paid.
No Reduction Possible.
Chairman Fordney OF the house
committee, said no reduction was
possible, and present levies, includ-
ing the excess profits schedules,
must remain unchanged awaiting
discovery of new sources of income
for the government. A small gross
sales tax, paid by manufacturers, is
among the changes favored by some
committeeman. - ..-
Inequalities in the application of
! the tax laws were cited by the ex-
pcrts as reasons for the extension
of the personal service" class. They
suggested that the definition of "the
personal service" corporation be
changed by eliminating the provi-
sion of the present law excluding
/ from such classification that bust
less in which capital is a material
income-producing factor" and that
personal corporation" be substitute
ed for personal service" corpora
ton, making the definition read:
"The term personal corporation
means corporation whose principal
stockholders regularly devote their
chief time and attention to the ac-
tive conduct of the affairs of the
corporation and own not less than
IS per cent of the capital stock of
the corporation and in which the
number of stockholders not regu-
larly devoting their chief time and
attention to the active conduct of its
affairs does not exceed TO-"
