BIBLE INSTRUCTION..
/. IN SCHOOLS URGED
Weekday Bible Teaching Ap.
proved by Many Educa-
tional Authorities.

Weekday religious instruction for
public school children in the church
schools of their parents choice has
been legally approved by the educa-
tional authorities of fifteen states in
the United States. according to a re-
port which has just been presented to
the National Council of the Episcopal
Church, in New York city.
Few educational plans to correct
the lowering of ethical and moral
standards can equal this movement in
promise of achievement" says the re-
port, which cites, as an Illustration
of the practical working of tho plan,
the fact that in Glendale, Ohio. the
ministers of the four leading denomi-
Episcopal rector. and the pastors of
the Methodist and Presbyterian
churches-have signed an open letter
to parents urging its adoption.
study Period Designated.
Under the plan. the grade pupils.
whose parents have given their assent
in writing on a card prepared for the
purpose, are given period on a stipu-
lated day, i'll their respective churches,
where. instead of the course which
they ordinarily would have had in the
public school, they receive lesson in
the Bible. Christian history and
morals. Markings are made for pro-
ficiency, which count. on the pupils
school records, and the entire course
Is sanctioned by the board Of educa-
tion. The taking Of the course Is left
entirely to the will of the parents OF
the children.
"This drawing together of the
church and the state in cooperative
work for the welfare of American
children" says Rev. DR.. William E.
Gardner. secretary of the Episcopal
department of education, is one of
the most hopeful signs of the times.
At conservative figure we now have
5000 pupils excused from school for
religious education. Mr.. Sargent,
who has charge of the work in our
church. is the first public school su-
perintendent to be called by a church
to give his entire time to this work.
Does Not Imply Critfcism.
ut does not imply any criticism Of
the public school system. which is
evidenced by the fact that public
school officials have indorsed the plan.
Without in any way interfering with
the training of school children. the
plan, In fact. supplements with a
positive moral quality. the work
which the public schools are doing

WILL NOT ENJOIN
TAX COMMISSiON

The supreme court yesterday hand
ed down per curiam order denying
the petition of the Santce mills, the
Winnsboro mills, the Pacific mills and
the Union Buffalo mills for an injunc-
tion to prevent the tax commission
from enforcing the provisions of the
state income tax act on the plaintiff
mills.
The temporary restraining orde,
granted several days ago was va.
Gated in the order of the court and the
petition for permanent injunction
was denied. A full opinion giving
the conclusions of the court has been
prepared and will be filed within the
next few days, the court said.
Under the terms of the order the
income tax act of the state is made
safe and no restraining order will be
granted against the tax commission
The order, while not giving any par
ticulars, is believed to mean tha.
the court will declare the act consti-
tGtional in its entirety. The plaintiff
mills raised so many questions of un-
constituiionality that the court will
in all likelihood, take the act as 4
whole into consideration as it apple.
= all persons, firms and corpora
ions.
The order of the court is as fol

to enjoin the defendants as members
of the South Carolina tax commits

CERMA f'zsss rpET
MEET EDITIONS

Paris, May 26 (By The Associated
rress) The committee of interna-
tional bankers in session here this
evening served notice on Germany
that further consideration of $1,000
coo, 900 loan to the German govern
m"nt is virtually out OF the question
until Germany accepts in full the con-
ditions of the ultimatum of the rep
arations commission, which expires
May 81, and also gives adequate guar
antees that the initiation of Germany's
currency will be stopped Immediate
ly. The committee then decided to
adjourn until May 81 to await the de
cision of Germany.
The conclusion of the bankers was
arrived at during their meeting this
afternoon which was; attended by Karl
Bergman as representative of Ger
many. Bergman Immediately tele-
pnonad the decision of the bankers to
Berlin.
In separations circles tonight the
view was advanced that the action of
the fnanciers probably would result
in complete acceptance by Germany
of all their conditions. 1t was further
stated that acquiescence by Germany
in the reparations commissions col
ditions probably would be productive
of loan of more than 81 00O,O0O,OOO
since the bankers have determined
that a large loan could be arranged
,,nder these circumstances.
The financiers completed their in
curry into the state of Germany's
finances at this afternoons session
and it was explained that they had
reached point where Germany's
guarantees must be forthcoming be-
fore the committee could discuss the
details of loan, the security for
it and cany other points.
The fact that the international
bankers have been able to see good
possibilities for loan, provided Ger
many subscribes to certain conditions,
is regarded very optilnistically in
reparations quarters where it was
pointed out tonight that the German
government could hafas, tford to do
otherwise than agree. 40
