The New York Legislature has enacted
laws TO guard against rent ''pro6teering"
by landlords. But the most interesting
question is how these will operate to the
advantage Of the tenant.

LARGE GROWTH
Of N. {. CHURCH
Biggest Gain in Membership Re
ported In History of Denomina-
tion-Faced Loss Last Year.

Chicago, Dec. 2S.-There was an
increase in membership of the
Methodist Episcopal church in 1920
of 1S2,33S members, according to
a statement received yesterday at
the headquarters of the committee
on conservation and advance. from
statistics compiled by DR.. Oliver s.
Baketel Of New York, editor of the
Methodist Year Book. This gain
in membership is the largest in the
history of Methodism. The Chi
cago area membership is now 240,-
697. a gain of 1852.
In 1919, according to Bishop Ed
gar Blake, formerly of Chicago
Methodism had the largest mem
bership loss in it's history. The de-
crease in that year, according to
the board of bishops, was 5S,357.
There has been a steady advance
in membership since 1910, with the
exception of 1919. In 1910 there
were 3.4S9,S9S communicates in
the Methodist Episcopal church
and the present membership ID
4,394.313. In that period the loss
of the church membership through
deaths was 100000. Statistics show
that there have been brought into
the membership of the church
1855, S07 during the last decade.

manent chairman OF the national
shippers conference.
Was War Worker.
During the war Mr.. Wallace was
active as a member of the national
war work council Of the 7. N. C. A.
and took . particularly prominent
part in Iowa committees Of the Y. M.
C. A. Mr.. Wallace Is q member Of
the United Presbyterian church and
is a Free Mason.
While not q wealthy man, Mr..
Wallace 10 said to have BEEN suf-
ficiently successful to withdraw
temporarily from business and takc
a cabinet portfolio. Like other ONO
ials In the government who own
newspapers or periodicals there 10
no necessity to relinqudsh income
from those sources while holding
office.
Talking with Senator Capper OF
Kansas, the writer was told that Mr..
Wallace's selection would probably
create . very favorable impression
among farm organizations gener-
ally.
Mr.. Capper called Mr.. Wallace a
progressive in farm matters though
he pointed out that Mr.. Wallace
could hardly be called radical Of
tho non-partisan league variety.
! Pleases Farmers.
Mr.. Wallace has editorially advo-
Gated reasonable laws to supervise
the packing industry. He has been
quite active, too. in recent years in
Republican politics. This year he
was chairman Of the resolutions
committee at the Iowa state Repub-
lican convention and wrote o plat
form on agricultural matters that
was regarded by farming interests
as one Of the best and strongest Of
all the platforms adopted by any
state convention. At Chicago Mr..
/ Wallace appeared before the reeolu-
lions committee and he is generally
credited with having succeeded in
getting into the national Republican
platform the planks about coopera-
tive marketing and kindred ideas
pleasing to the agricultural folks.
Both Senators Kenyon and Cum
minis Of Iowa have been urging the
appointment Of Mr.. Wallace and
! practically the entire agricultural
! group in congress has for some time
taken 1t for granted that Mr.. Hard
| ing would select tho Iowa editor.
| Not until the last ~ hours, however,
has confirmation come that Mr..
Harding had definitely made UP his
mind to make the appointment.

Every year for the past "a
years, ]. j. Hamley and George
w. Coutts have had an annual
bird hunt together. Yesterday.
the opening of the grouse season,
found them together for the
thirty-fourth hunt since the sum
mer of 1856, when both were
young men in south Dakota.
When the two started their
hunts in the Dakotas. prairie
chickens were their prey. Never
did a year pass by without at
least one expedition. Later they
moved to Idaho and the annual
hunts were continued. After
coming to Pendleton both have
hunted grouse with each succeed
ing season.
At no time has their luck been
better than it was yesterday. for
both veteran huntsmen hagged
the limit. Their sons. John Ham
ley and Earl Coutts. who ac-
companied them on the hunt. also
hagged five birds each. The party
did not get on the ridge IL desir-
ed. either. for SATURDAY night
