As DAILY SERIAL,
NEWSPAPER FINDS
Experiment by Topeka State
Journal Is Highly
Successful.

Topeka. kan.-tCorrespondence Of
The Associated Press.)-Is printing
the Bible a good newspaper feature:
Will the average person read the Bible
if published in this way?
After printing a weekly serial from
the Bible for three months, Arthur J.
Carruth, managing editor of the To-
peka State Journal. declares that the
publication of the Bible has proved to
be the greatest success of any feature
ever printed by the State journal.
Moreover. it is being read by many
subscribers as faithfully as would be
the installments of a popular novel.
Carruth states.
The publication of the Bible Sc
rally has had a marvellous effect" said
Mr.. Carruth. 1T has shown that the
subscribers are sincere in their de-
mand for reading matter of a religious
character. and also has shown to the
public that the newspapers do not print
only the sensational, that they do not
attempt to appeal primarily to the
masses and that they do not neglect
the church."
AS an indication 70 the interest taken
in the publication Of the Bible, Mr..
Carruth stated he has received Inquiries
from every state in the nation. many
letters from Canada and a number of
communications from foreign countries.
A number of Kansas newspapers have
taken up the publication of the Bible
since the Journal started it. Mr.. Car
ruth stated. He said out of about so
ministers in Topeka, he has received
communications from all and that in
only two or three cases had they criti-
cized the publication.
The publication of the Bible was I'M
dertaken by the State Journal at the
suggestion of Or. Charles NJ. Sheldon
of Topeka, editor of The Christian
Herald and well known author. Each
installment includes about 5000 words.
The Weymouth text of the New Tesla
ment, a translation in everyday Eng
fish, is used. Already publication of
the Book of Mark has been completed
and the Book of Luke is well under
way.

HARDING FAvORS
ECONOMIC MEET
JAPANESE GOVERNMENT ALL
READY TO ACCEPT INVITA-
TON TO ATTEND
But Pres dent Will Not Cal Such
Conference Until Conditions
Appear Favorable
For Success

Washington.-Presid Harding is
willing to call an International econ
omic conference any time that world
Conditions appear to be favorable to
the success Of such gathering.
But absolutely no steps toward
launching such a project will be taken
by this government until the presi-
dent and his advisers are convinced
that conditions are such that the
worlds economic problems will yield
to peaceful settlement around the con-
ference table as did the worlds naval
problems at the armament conference
last winter.
This was the explanation put for
ward in official quarters Thursday for
renewed reports in foreign capitals
that the United States would shortly
inaugurate second Washington con-
ference-to deal this time with the
vexing economic problems that have
brought Europe to the verge of an
other war. So circumstantial were
the reports that from Toxic came
press dispatches reporting the Japan
ese government as anticipating such
an invitation and willing to accept 1t.
While entirely willing to undertake
such project-in the same spirit
that actuated the calling of the arma-
ment conference-it Is nevertheless
the unanimous opinion of the presi-
dent and his closest advisers that
world conditions are not now favor
able to the success of any interna-
tional conference, whether inaugural
ed by America or some other nation.
And until conditions abroad become
more settled, 1t was said Thursday,
the United States will pursue its pres
ent policy of aiding Europe's rehab-
ilitation wherever possible and in
such was as to bring no involvment
in European pickering and politics.
Severe pressure has been brought
to bear on the administration to "dip
in" abroad. 1t has come not only
from abroad, but also from American
bankers who believe that without
American participation in European
counsels Europe Is doomed.
