WASHINGTON, July 1s.-(United
Press Attacks on the Federal Re-
serve Board and ID. r. Crissinger.
Comptroller Of the Currency, were
made today by Representatives of or
ganized farmers.
Maurice McAuliffe, president Of
the Farmers Union OF Kansas. told
the Congressional commission OF az
ricultural inquiry that the assertion
that Europe Is wholly bankrupt con-
stitutes a propaganda by those in
terested in debating farm prices. He
charged that the defation was delib-
erately designed and precipitated.
"1nsidious and suggestive propa-
ganda was followed by the action
Of the Federal Reserve banks in re-
stricting credit and in refusing to
regard as liquid the splendid secur-
ities which the farmer had to offer"
he said
Albert F. Coyle, acting secretary
OF the All-American Cooperative
Commission. composed OF labor and
farm organizations, demanded in a
statement that Congress rectify a
decision OF Crissinger's preventing
the organization OF cooperative ma
tional banks TO remedy the intoi-
erable credit crisis which is ham

for the mysterious vessel reported
at various times within the past few
weeks. Gliding in the dark without
running lights and oftentimes in

shin. The Department OF Justice has
wired him for a complete report.
Coast guard vessels now are ac-
lively engaged in the hunt for the

not determined whether one or more
vessels are involved. Descriptions

At present DR.. Webb is pastor OF
the Central North Broad Street Pres
byterian Church. Broad and Green
streets, Philadelphia, regarded as
one OF the most influential congrega-
tons of the Presbyterian faith in
that city. He is also regarded as
one Of the foremost clergymen Of his
denomination. II is understood that
DR.. Webb recently received a call to
large Pittsburgh church but de-
clined. He is married and resides
in the Lyndhurst Apartments, Phila-
delphia.
For more than a year, or since
the congregations of the First and
Central Presbyterian churches effect
ed a consolidation, on March 2, 1920
the pulpit has been merely sup
piled" from Sunday to Sunday. The
Rev. Josiah H. Crawford, d. D., was
pastor OF Central Presbyterian
Church at the time OF the consolida-
ton, and was continued for several
weeks as stated supply" The Rev
]. Ross Stonesifer was the last regu-
lar pastor of First Church. Since
Dr. Crawford's departure from tbs
city the First and Central pulpit ha'
been filled by preachers engaged fol
one or two services only.
Meanwhile the committee namet
by the session to recommend pas
tor has been visiting many citfei
in search Of a suitable candidate
for the pulpit. Effort has been mad
to find a pastor who viii combln'
both the qualities of a preache
with executive capacity, especial.
