those powers may be limited by the constitution of the general confer ence.
 Powers Defined
 As to the general conference the report suggested that they be com posed as the general conferences to the two respective churches are now or may hereafter be constituted. The powers and limitations of this gen. eral conference should be defined by the joint commission, the report said
 Each vote in the general confer enee should be by Jurisdictions, the report continued, and shall require a majority vote of each division to be effective
 The question of changing the name of the church was left open for fu- ture consideration.
 Following approval of the report, the committee of 16 was appointed and the two commissions adjourned, subject to call by their chairman to hear the report of the enlarged com mittee.
 In order to reunite the church which has been separated for 70 years. the joint committee must ap- prove the committee of sixteen's am plification of the report by a two thirds vote of those present. Follow ing this action the amplified report goes to the annual conferences of the respective divisions of the church and upon its approval by these bod ies. will be presented to the general conference for final approval and ul- innate unification of the church.

PARIS Jan. I9.-The reparation commission today postponed con sideration of Germanys failure to deliver full amounts of Benzol to Italy, which the French had hoped would add another default against Germany to those already declared on coal and wood deliveries
 The commission also denied to limit action on Germany's payment of more than thirty billion marks as subsidies to German ship masters against a renewed protest by the committee on guarantees at Berlin.
 The commission felt 1t was uneces- sary to complicate matters by acting on these problems now, inasmuch as the French plan will be ready, probably tomorrow night and will be presented to the commission next week when the question of mora torium for Germany comes up for discussion.
 The reparation commission today reelected Louis Barthou, president and the Marquis Giuseppe Salvage Raggi of Italy, vice president, for the one year term in accordance with the interallied agreement that distributes the offices of the com mission among defendant countries.

Interest IN Extinct Mammal.

The famous cave Of Ultima Espe.
rama, In the Magellan canals, Patago-
MIA, belongs to the haunts Of the
"Grisly Folk" It was here that the
mylodon was discovered about fifteen
years ago-a find which caused SEN
sation in the whole civilized world, be-
cause the mylodon, a giant extinct
mammal of the class of the ground
sloths, possessed the popularity of
having its skin covered with small
bones, something never observed be-
fore in any other archaic or. living spe-
cies, and, according to the scientific
commissions sent out from various
countries might have survived until
rather recent times, as there was still
dry flesh and reddish hair clinging to
It.

He is still hustlirg. met him

that he has got ahead. He is salaried

finest set Of dyspepsia have ever lis

his grave his wife will take In room

That sort of hustling does not get
anyone anywhere If he had made 1t

to discover where he was going and
why, he might not be on salary today.
