General Assembly Action

PHILADELPHIA, May 27.-The gen.

OF 100000 for the ensuing year to the
movement, when properly reorganizcd,
"to be used for the payment Of its
current operating expenses as a going
concern for that period, and for no
other purpose"
This, it was said, paves a way for
reorganization of the movement along
less expensive line and will conserve
I the values already realized since the
beginning of the campaign.

general assembly was almost unani-
obligation for the 1nterchurch move
ment as now organized and controlled.

lied to take immediate steps to pro-
vide for the payment by the Presby-
terrain Church of the money underwrit-
ten last year. The plan adopted fur
Their provides the following:
That in entering into relationship
with the 1nterchurch movement as re-
organized, the general assembly in no
manner recognizes it's liability for any
indebtedness not specifically author
lied by it.
"Thc executive commission is fur
Their authorized to provide for the Be-
lection of persons who shall repre-
sent the general assembly in its CO.
operative work in the said movement,
and the commission shall have full
discretion as to the manner in which
said representatives shall function with
the representatives of other agencies
affiliated with the movement"
New Era Approved
Continuance of the new era move
ment, which IS strictly Presbyterian
effort within the Church, was asked
in joint harmony resolution agreed
upon and introduced by the Rev. ohm
B. Laird, chairman Of the committee
on bills and overtures, and the Rev.
William II. Foulkes, general secretary.
The movement is intended to smpli-
fy collection Of funds, coordinate

PROVIDING FOR
PRESIDENTIAL DISABILITY

It is conceivable that at some
future time a president might be-
come incapacitated through ILLNESS
or even become insane, and so long
as those close about him chose to
keep his real condition secret, the
country would be without an execu-
tive head. There would be no linn
Il on the period of disability and
no certain knowledge that some
group or clique had not actually
usurped executive authority. It is
10 guard against such an eventual
ity that the Tess amendment is
proposed.
To place the responsibility for
the decision in the hands Of Con-
gress and the Supreme Court means
hat it will never be used unneces-
sarily. If a partisan majority should
happen to control Congress, it is
inconceiyable that it could affect
the Supreme Court. That tribunal
may be depended upon not TO be
swayed by partisan appeal, so that
the proper safeguards may be con-
sldered to have been provided in
dealing with an emergency such as
has recently eXisted.-Seattle Post.
