CHURCH CoNCLAyE FAILS
Attempt to Abolish All Religious
Relics is Defeated

BY The Associated Press.
Moscow, May 5.--The effort in the
ALL Russian church conclave to force
through a declaration abolishing all
sacred relics on the ground that they
serve to foster superstition has failed
through the efforts of Bishop An
tonin.
The conclave which had originally
been expected to adopt such a resolu-
ton finally compromised the issue by
allowing the relics to be retained but
providing that they be kept open to
view instead of in caskets. The res
olution also censured those persons
who it said, endeavored to create
SPURIOUS relics. The conclave grant
cd the petition of group of bishops
that they be allowed to remain un-
married.

of the court and by the attorney
generals admission, of any wrong
ful dealings or unfair practices to-
ward customers or competitors, but
TO insure the fullest competition,
a decree was entered in 1918 re-
quiiing the company to sell to com
peritors certain lines of harvesting
machinery. and to limit its sales
representation to a single dealer in
any one town.
That decree further provided
that ut the end of a test period
which has now expired the goven-
rnent might ask the court to de,
tennine whether Or not the free
competition contemplated by the
sheman law exists in the farm i'm
plement <industry This step the
government has now taken.
AS we understand it, the sole
issue raised by the present petit
tion relates to competitive condi-
lions with respect to harvesting
machines only. 1t does not charge
the company with unduly raising
the price of harvesting machinery
to the grave injury of the American
farmer, as was charged in 1912, but
it does cl.arge that the company has
been unduly depressing the price
of harvesting machinery, particular
ly since 1920, to the injury of its com
petitors.
without attempting to argue our
ease at this time, it seems fair to
say that the unfortunate condition
in which manufacturers of harvest
ing machines. and in fact of all 9th
er farm implements. find themselves
is due to the serious business de-
preston that affected the entire
country beginning in the fall of 1920.
During the last few years the
whole farm implement industry has
been in an abnormal and distress
ing situation which directly re-
fleets the situation of the farmer.
High costs OF labor, material and
transportation have burdened it
with high manufacturing costs
while on the other hand low prices
| for agricultural products have left
the farmer unable to buy his no
nal and needed requirements OF
farming machinery.
we are confident that the hear
ing on the present petition will
4 clearly show that the Harvester
! Company is not in any way respon
sible for these conditions in the
ferm implement industry. Prices
of harvesting machinery are the re
suit of vigorous competition, ex
actly the kind of competition which
the Sherman law was enacted tt
preserve. and are fairly comparable
with the prices OF other nipple
ments which the government con
eedes were fixed by normal com
petition"
