ohio AND IOWA SYMBOLS.
OF LUTHERAN CHURCH.
Determined TO MERGE.

DETROIT, Mich, Aug. 28.-The mer-
ger of the Ohio and Iowa Lutheran
synods was definitely undertaken, and
Frightening prospects for the union OF
these merged bodies with the Missouri
Synod were recognized by a formal
resolution at a session of the Ohio
Synod in Salem church here
The task of arranging the organized
union of the Ohio and Iowa synods
was formally placed IN the hands Of a
committee, consisting of the leaders
in the missionary, educational and pub
LEGATION departments OF the Ohio
Synod's work This committee is to
meet with a similar committee from
the Iowa Synod, and arrange about the
titles of property and all other details
of actual unif1cation.
The question of union with the great
Synod of Missouri was brought up,
rather Unexpectedly, in the discussion
of the annual report, of committee
on synodical relations which had been
meeting with a similar committee from
the Missouri body.
Agree on Doctrine
The committee, in its report, aroused
deep interest by declaring that the two
committees had found themselves in
substantial agreement on doctrine and
practice. This report was the more
striking, because the division between
the Ohio and Missouri Synods, about 40
years ago, was over issues of dictrine
The committees of the Missouri and
Ohio synods agreed to set forth their
discussions and agreements in the form
of theses" ana submit these theses
to their respective synods for action
Accordingly the committee brought be
fore the Ohio Synod yeterday its report
with plan for the resumption of con
ferences between the committees OF
the two synods.
Prof William Schmidt, of st. Paul
arose to his feet with warm address
urging the Ohio synod to pass reso
luton affirming that the two bodies
are substantially one, and otherwise
sdeclaring the joy of the Ohio synod
at the prospect of an early reunion af
ter a separation OF so years. The sus
gestion was warmly endorsed by some
of the delegates, and rather withstoot
by others.
| ST. Johns and Trinity churches herr
are affiliated with the Ohio synod, and
the Wernle orphans home is owned
/ by the synod.

YOUNG ARAB LEADER
PLEADS FOR LIBERTY
OF SYRIAN PEOPLE
(Bv Associated Pressl

HAIFA, PALESTINE, Aug. %. =
Nazel al Abed, an Arab girl who play
ed prominent part in fomenting the
revolt against French rule in Syria
last May, and who later managed to
escape from prison where she was
serving a life sentence, gave the rep
resentative of The Associated Press
an interview in which she set forth
her reasons for the unpopularity of
the French mandate in the Near East.
THE French press" she said, sac
cused Charles R. Crane, former Amer
lean Minister to China, of being the
cause of the disorders of last May.
This is absolutely false. The disor-
ders were the direct result of the op-
pressive and offensive rule of the
mandatory power in Syria.
I'VE Syrian people" she continued,
''are liberty loving. We pride our
selves on the fact that we are the in
tellectual and moral leaders of all the
Arabs. In welcoming the French
Army in 1918, we had hoped that
France would help us realize our as
pirations for self government.
Treatment Unjust
"We have been deceived. Instead of
just treatment, we find that our coun-
try is occupied by black troops, who
are our interiors; our government
turned over to inexperienced French
officials, who try to govern by force,
and our leaders lodged in jails.
I'm the face of all these abuses,
she declared, "a nation can do no less
than revolt and ri ditself of the yoke
of the oppressor
Nazel al Abed is about 80 years of
age, of commanding personality and
with a great charm of manner. She
was born in Damascus of a wealthy
and influential family A mission
school provided her with an education
which seems to have instilled into her
| heart the love of country and of in
| dependence.
During the war she served in the
Red Crescent, a Turkish organization
/ similar to the American Red Cross
Since 1919 she has been the accredited
leader of all the women organizations
in Syria. Because of the part she
played in organizing the demonstra
lions in Damascus last May, which re
suited in great disorders and blood
shed, she was arrested and condemn
ed to life imprisonment She re
manned in prison, however, but short
time, soon making her escape.

manufacturers ARE
CALLED TO ORGANIZE
AGAINST FREIGHT CUT
CBy Associated Press,

INDIANAPOLIS, Aug. 2S.-Indiana
manufacturers were asked today by
the Public Service Commission to
meet here next Friday to form an or,
ganized defense against proposed
freight rate reductions by the South
ern Pacific railroad, which the com
mission said would place New York
competitors on an equal basis with
competitors as far west as the Missis-
sippi river" on shipments to the Pa
cific coast.
Indiana manufacturers and ship
pers who are interested in western
business" said the commissions call
to the Indiana manufacturers, will be
injuriously affected if the proposed
reduction is allowed to become effec-
tive"
The proposed reductions affect IT'S
articles, including board, straw or
chip, wall paper, various kinds of pa
per. plumbers goods, earthen%are and
stonewafe, pumps and sprayers, GER
tain agricultural implements, clay and
clay products, tile roofing, bottles,
jars, glass, bars and band iron, wire
fencing, nails and stoves.
Postpone Rate Change
The lower rates were to have be-
come effective on July l, last, but this
date was suspended by the Interstate
Commerce Commission at the request
of the Public Service Commission. A
hearing will be held at Chicago Oil
Sept. II, by the Interstate Commerce
Commission to consider whether the
lower rates will be permitted to be es-
tablished, and the Indiana Commits
sion plans that the meeting here next
Friday shall organize defense CT the
present rates.
The reason given for the proposed
reduction is to meet the competition
OF the water carriers" says the COM
missions call for the Friday meeting.
However, the rates proposed a, not
as low as rates via the water routes
and il would seem that the sole pur-
pose of this reduction is to secure
business to the Southern Pacific sys-
TEN at the expense of the carriers
through this territory.
THE matter is not only important
to those who are interested in the
commodities affected, but it is very
important insofar as the principles
involved are concerned. If the South
ern Pacific system is allowed to con-
struct a deferential route to the Pa
cffic coast, then the entire scheme of
trans-continental rates must be re-
vised. Any program of this character
will be greatly detrimental to the ship
pers and manufacturers of this terri
tory who depend largely on western
business and who expect this business
to grow

S127,S7O PREMIUM
WILL BE AWARDED BY
COLUMBUS, OHIO, FAIR
CBy Associated Press)

COLUMBUS, Ohio. Aug. 2S.-Facing
a trio of preliminary misfortunes, all
of which. officials said, we're over
come successfully, the seventy-second
annual Ohio state fair opened here
today with larger premium lists and
more exhibits than ever in its history
A few weeks ago. the fair grounds
were visited by $500. 900 fire. Tenn
porary structures, and repairs to those
damaged, will give the same floor
space as before the fire, Secretary of
Agriculture Taber said
The rail and coal strikes, of course,
were reckoned as having some effect
on the big exposition, but there is
enough fuel on hand to keep the fair
plant running, and an increase in au-
tomobile attendance is expected to
help bring up any curtailment of Wis
itors brought about by the rail strike.
Educational Features
Education will be the dominant note
of this years fair. Educating the city
man in agriculture, and the farmer in
improved methods of tilling the soil,
and in farm management, will be
stressed, rather than entertainment,
according to Mr. Taber
Nine thousand dollars has been of
fered in total prizes for boys and girls
club work, the greatest sum hung up
in the history of the fair, and larger
than any other state fair in the coun-
try will offer, Taber said.
This years premium list totals
$127,S70, which, also, according to Ia
Der, is larger than any offered at any
other fair in the country.
There were more than 1900 sheep
on exhibition, and in the livestock OK.
