kl3Y A. N. 1.D
Chicago Oct 21-Bethel African
Methodist Episcopal Church. one of
the nations greatest religious con.
gregations, having a membership OF
nearly 5000 and landmark in the
progress of community life In Chlca-
go, has been torn asunder.
The break follows closely on the
heels of the trouble in New York
City, where { heBethel church OF tnat
community, was split and the doors
closed because Bishop Hurd refused
to hear the wishes of the congrega-
ton in the assignment OF a pastor.
In this instance IT. Is Bishop COP
pin,No the Fourth Episcopal DISTRICT.
A delegation of officers visited the
conference and had an interview with
the bishop. whom they claim LED them
to believe that DR.. w. ID. Cook, one OF
the most popular ministers IN the
city. would be returned as pastor.
When the appointments We're read,
DR.. Cook was assigned to Des MONIES,
and Rev. S. I. Brit OF that CITY MA, Was
SO incensed the officers and congre-
cation that they held meeting and
resolved to withdraw from the A. M:
Il. connection. They state It is not
because of any disregard for Rev.
Brit, but because of the Arbitrary
methods of the bishop.
over 700 members with the ma
jority of the stewards and trustees,
have established a Community Church
nation as q minister in the church
and accepted the passionate of the
new congregation.
The break in the church seems to
be the elimination of a long period
Of dissatisfaction with the manner
in which the church has been treat,
ed by the connection. 1t Is claimed
that they were refused DELEGATE to
the general conference, notwithstand-
ing the church has raised more money
than any other A. NJ E. congrega-
ton in the city.
There is, also. internal strife in the
Olivet Baptist congregation, OF when
DR. l.. X. Williams Is the pastor. This
congregation claims to be the largest
of the race in the world. After going
into their new building, there was q
new congregation built up in the
old building, but under the same OH
vet direction. Now, seemingly IN
keeping with the prevalent spirit oil
self-determination, the new congre-
CATION from the old church wishes to
have independence.

WINNIPEG, Man, July 29.-Thirty
thousand farm laborers will be peces-
sary to harvest the crops OF Manitoba,
Saskatchewan and Alberta, according
to an estimate announced by ]. A.
Bowman. commissioner of Coloniza-
ton of Manitoba.
Half the harvest hands are eX-
pected to come from eastern Canada.
Probably 1000 or 5000 will come
from the United States and the re-
mainder will be recruited in the
towns and cities of western Canada.
Several thousand farm hands usually
follow the harvests northwail from
Oklahoma and Texas and wind UP
their seasons compaign in western
Canada, where the harvest starts
about the time it ends in Minnesota,
the Dakotas and Montana. Wages in
western Canada will be 81 to S6 a
day and may go higher. While the
acreage under crop in the prairie
provinces is slightly smaller than
last year, the yield is expected to be
much heavier.

JAP SHIP AIMS
ReprisaIs Will Follow II Nip

BY LEE ELLMAKER.
International News Service

Threats OF foreign nations to dis
eliminate against the United States
merchant marine because of pro-
visions OF the Merchant Marine Act
of 1920 will be met with immediate
action by the Shipping Board to pre-
vent the conservation OF the foreign
designs, according to announcement
made today by the board.
Under the Merchant Marine act the
United States can adopt preferential
rates to assure tonnage for American
shipping. This has been resented by
both Japan, which has similar leg
islation, and England. Japan has
threatened to take action against
American shipping II the preferential
provisions OF the Merchant Marine
act are enforced
CAN CHANGE RATES.
The Shipping Board feels 1t has two
opportunities to prevent any dis
elimination against American ship
ping. II Japan makes special regu-
lations on freight to American ports
to drive American competition from
the seas and does not make similar
provision for other nations the Ship
ping Board has the right to inquire
into the action before the ship carry
ing the Japanese cargo is permitted
to land.
