NAZARENES WILL
HEAR TALK BY
DR.. DUDLEY
D. C. Rector to Make Open
ing Address at ConVsn.
ton Here

The Reverend George F. Dudley,
rector of st. Stephens Episcopal
Church, wfil make the opening
address at the National Convention
of the Society Of the Nazarene, in
Trinity Diocesan Church, Third and
G streets northwest. The conven-
ton will last five days beginning
September Is. Doctor Dudley will
speak on "The Divine Source OF
Healing, God"
Among other Westinghouse who
will speak at the convention are
Doctor w. Sinclair Bowen, Doctor
L. w. Glazebrook and Mrs. G. e.
Lent.
The Society Of the Nazarene seeks
to restore the practice Of healing
bodily ills through prayer and
faith. It aims at a more complete
faith and believes that this can BE-
accomplished by scientific study.
1t believes by creating q right at.
titude Of mind the work of the
physician can be greatly assisted.
The Reverend A. J. Gayner Banks,
national director Of the society, will
preside over the convention. He
has returned recently from a visit
to England, where he attended
meetings and was in consultation
with leaders Of the movement in
that country. He writes:
Under the splendid leadership
of the Reverend John Rigg, rector
Of st. Thomas Church Croome,
Md, and director for the province
Of Washington, the convention
committees have their prepare
tons well under way. We are
looking forward to the convention

Fight McCarl Ruling
Withholding Navy
Officers Paw

Rulings of Comptroller Cen
eral McCarl, Withholding pay
allowances of the navy officers,
held by them to be illegal de-
cisions, twill be fought to the
finish through the courts" it was
learned at the Navy Department,
today.
"A number of officers living in
Washington organized . COM
mittee, representing all officers
involved, to retain counsel and
carry the fight to the United
States Supreme Court, if neces-
sary.
The case was expected to in
volve the authority of the Comp
troller General to withhold pay
of officers for alleged overpay-
ment Of communication of quar-
tiers, rentals, and subsistence and
may even, extend to the question
of the constitutionality of his
office.

given to any candidate for any Of
flee in any primary ever held IN
Kansas.
After that experience Capper is
bound to feel under not the slight
est obligation to follow a presiden-
tial recommendation just because
1t was made by the President.
In numerous States and districts
Republican candidates are support
ing Coolidge for President and are
going their own gait nevertheless
about their own policies.
To Form New Bloc.
In last weeks article in these
columns it was pointed out that
some of these Coolidge.for- President
Republicans will constitute in Con-
gress a sort Of conservative indie.
pendent bloc. Others Of them, like
Capper, will constitute a group
somewhere in between the con
sentative independent bloc" and
the La Toilette radical bloc"
The President did not think much
of the last Congress. He may think
less of the next one.
The marvel of the eleotion'is then
seen to be the apparent large per-
sonal general popularity of Cool
idge, who Is sometimes called
"canny" and sometimes equally
rightly called "uncanny."
The La Toilette people are
against him on policies. The Demo
Gratis are against him on policies.
Certain quite numerous conservative
Republicans have been against him
on policies. These three groups
added together are a clear majority
of the Taen in public life. They also,
after appeal to the people, are likely
to be a majority in the next Con-
gress.
Yet Coolidge. standing personally
out against them, may be returned
to the White House.
If it should happen, it will be a
clear indication of the truth which
many profound anayZers of issues
are always forgetting; namely, that
people are people first and voters
afterwards, and that they vote for
people as people even more than
they vote for them on issues or
| policies.

agricultural prosperity is fighting
on the side of Mr. Coolidge, the
new Eastern Industrial depression
will fight on the side of Mr.. Davis
and will put him into the White
House even II he carries not one

Therefore, while the betting is
still on Coolidge, the temper Of
the Democrats who have considered
the matters above outlined is i'm
mensely more optimistic than it
Was q few weeks ago.
Beyond the election, moreover,
they think they see q situation

Coolidge in this election through
saying nothing in his favor but also
or Republicans who are vigorously
supporting him.

Senator Capper of Kansas is an
instance. Some Coolidge Repub.
licans in Kansas tried to defeat
Capper in the Kansas Republican
Senatorial primary by pointing out
that he had voted for the bonus and
against the Mellon tax plan against
Mr.. Coolidge's advice or command
Capper thereupon confined his
whole campaign to one brief an.
nouncement in which he said that
he would support Mr.. Coolidge for
President but in which he preceded
that promise by fatty declaring:
