CHURCH LAITY WANTS PART
 IN NAMING ENGLISH BISHOPS

LONDON, April 2S. = The ap- pointment of bishops in the Church of England, which is the preroga- tive Of the Prime Minister, has again been attacked by members of the Church.
 The question was brought before committee of the recent National Assembly of the Church but no ac- ton was taken, although large section of the low Church mem bers urged that the matter be brought before the main body of the assembly.
 The matter was again before the public at the recent conyocation of the Lower House of York, when a motion was made that the Church should have direct voice i'll the ap- pointment of bishops. It was point ed out that the last two premiers had not been members of the Church of England, although they had the power of appointing the Church heads.
 The debate was adjourned until the next convocation, despite the efforts of the laymen to bring about a vote.

HOUSING SPACE
 IS AT PREMIUM!

BERLIN, April 2s.-Housing con ditfons are so difficult in Berlin that comparatively few families are able to retain an entire house, or even an entire apartment for themselves Every section of the city has it's housing committee, which makes con stant inspections and checks up the space in all buildings.
 Consequently persons having houses larger than tbe size of their family juAaifies under the housing regulations are always seeking lodg- CTS. In case the householder does not find his own dodgers, persons will be sent by the housing committees.
 Under the present financial strin- gency in Germany tenants who twill pay we'll, especially if they will pay in foreign currency, are not unwel- ccme in many palatial homes.
 But. the abilit of foreigners to ac- uuire accommodations of a superior class has caused much criticism among Germans, and members of the housing committees are constantly under fire. While some persons ap-

 Darge. houses are. being divided ug in every possible way to meet with Ae housing regulations and guaran- Ice privacy to the tenants. Apart ments in better buildings in Berlin are so large that it is seldom possible for a family Ito retain a whole apart ment Consequently there are two families cooking in many kitchens, and the comic papers are full of jokes about the complications arising from the housing regulations.

 The real trouble is that from the start parents do not respect the pre- cious little belongings of childhood, and set a mighty bad example of ignoring property rights in the heart of the household. It is not the value of the things destroyed or mutilated, which counts; it is the principle of consideration for. others and their belongings-the, conscious recognition of the fact that sothers' things are as valuable to them as your belong ings are to you. If this trait s de. veloped early in regard to even the little things which hardly seem to count, the habit of consideration foI other peoples property will become a fixed one and will last q lifetime.
 Parental indifference is appalling when it comes to public property, "Oh, the government-or the town pays for that. I should worry if it is destroyed!" This will be said right before the impressionable youngsters. Naturally the children respond to such an attitude with seorn for such property.
 Respect your chihls property if you expect him to respect yours. Teach him that he is to respect the property rights of others, and resent to reasonable degree any infringe ment upon his own. He will take better care of belongings he has been taught to respect.

After 10 years or moro of working with children from Kindergarten to nigh school ages. in the school room. on play grounds. and at summer camps, the most prominent problem with which had to deal Wis that of PROPERTY RIGHTS.
 Not one child in 9 has a well balanced attitude of minl to ,ard the property of others. Most children will fight to protect their OWE prep. erty. but are absolutely indifferent if not criminally careless. with the property of others And the ocea- sonal child will be wantonly destrue- tive. But il is usually an intense carelessness due to lack of training whieh is to blame for this condition.
 Public property libraries school buildings. play grounds and fences. and materials used in public class wor.k-are deliberately or carelessly or thoughtlessly destroyed. defaced, or mutHated every day, all over the land, by every class of children.
 Children will scrawl words and drawings with chalk upon public walks and walls, and also upon pri- vate houses, and go unreproyed
 What is at the bottom of this uni. versal indifference to the use and abuse of property not distinctly "Mine?" Is it entirely the fault ol the children? After a rather careful study of sources, l would say. Put 1t up to the parents"
 Do parents instIl into young minds under their charge that the personal property of each one in the family is sacred and not to be used without express permission, unless it is com munity family property?
 How often, for example, does Moth CT forget that baby Katherine has her property rights in the bits of scrawled paper which Mother cen. signs to the waste basket without consulting Katherine first?

 Kill Political Bill
 l Senator Hunts bill to make party nominees ex-offieio national commit tcemen and to elect divisional com mitteemen was handled without gloves by the House, and after be- I ing amended to eliminate the first provision, was killed. Price and Daly led the original attack on the measure. The former pointed out that it did not take into consideration tho fact that the Democratic party is allowed two national committeeman from Alaska; that naming by the people of members to the national committees is no more than an ann mendmcnt, as these committees ap- point their own members. He de- eIared for many reasons tho bill was unavoidable.
 | MT. Daily. commenting on the propo- sition to make the nominees for dele 1 gate national committeeman, declared l it was the most absurd proposal he had ever read, and was neither work able nor proper He said he favored the election of divisional committee men. MT. Foster declared that the Delegate to Congress was more than the leader of tho Republican party, he was the representative of all Al askans regardless of party and that to attempt to change his status was to mako a hotbed of politics out of a public office. He declared that such a change would be unwclcome to the present Delegate, quoting the latter as saying two years ago that he wa not concerned about political patron age which was up to the National Committeeman.
 Daly Amendment Passes
 MT. Daily offered an amendment striking the first provision. This was carried by vote of to 2. MT. Ross being absent. With Mr. Price in the chair. Speaker Cole took the floor and led flight to further dis figure the measure, which he declared had been robbed of all its virtue when the Daly amendment was adopt ed.
