Cedar Fails. Sept. ls-The twenty
seventh general conference of the
Evangelical Association, which orens a
three weeks session in Cedar FAILS
Oct ,, will be one OF the most remark
allie gatherings ever held here. II is
the first time in the IL years Of this
DENOMINATIONS existence that the gen
eral conference has met in Iowa, and
this meeting promises TO make Cedar
Falls the birthplace Of new church
organization BY reason Of the fact that
the proposed merger OF the Evangelical
Association and the United Evangelical
church will no doubt be contaminated
al the coming conference here. The
basis OF agreement was ratified by the
general conference of the United Evan
geliCal church in session at York, Pa,
in 1918, and now needs only the ap-
proval Of the Cedar Falls assembly 70
make II effective
This Will bring about the reunion or
two branches Of the Evangelical church
that have been separated for more than
twenty-five years. and will be the first
instance on record Of such a merger
coming within the lifetime Of one gen.
Grafton.
Meets Quadrenrially.
This general conference Is the high
est legislative body Of the Evangelical
denomination and meets Quadrennially.
1t is delegated body, being composed
OF regularly elected representatives
from the annual conference OF the
church in this and foreign countries.
The association was organized IN
America in 1907, and its policy is strik-
ingly democratic IN form and prin-
ciple. Tho episcopal in character the
fact that its founders were OF the rev
dictionary generation and stock Gr
fact, the founder Of the church, JACOB
Albright. was soldier in the American
revolutton), the organization was pro-
tected against that type OF high church
autocracy that would naturally De
odious to a liberty loving people.
That Cedar Falls has the distinction
of entertaining this body IS largely due
TO the efforts Of Rev. B. R. Weiner
and w. c. Nuhn. Iowa delegates from
Cedar Falls at the general conference
in Los Angeles in 1918. Philadelphia,
st. Paul, Los Angeles, Chicago, Cleve-
land and Kitchener. Ont, are some OF
the cities that have entertained this
assembly In former years. and It Is
worry unusual that city the size OF
Cedar Falls is thus honored.
Being a delegated body and the ba-
sis Of representation being very close
the number Of delegates will be very
much out Of proportion to the magnl-
tude and Importance Of the work to be
done. There will be approximately 2eo
delegates IN attendance. These dele
gates will come from all parts OF the
United States. Canada and Japan
China, Germany Switzerland and Rus

JAPAN TO INCREASE
TARIFF ON DYESTUFFS

TOXIC, Feb. Thy maiD The Jap
'anese authorities are planning to take
legal steps to discourage the dumping
by Germany and Austria Of dyestuffs
on the Japanese market. The depart
ment of agriculture intends to ask at
the coming session of the diet for a
revision of the tariff so as to increase
the duty on dyestuffs from the present
rate of 10 per cent to from 30 to 80
per cent. This is intended to prevent
the importation of dyestuffs and to
encourage the dye industry at home.
Since the war began the Japanese
dye industry has increased enormously
and last year Japan exported to China
about $2,5OO,00O worth of dye and i'm
ported about the same amount from
China and 100000 worth from the
United States.
