Affairs of Church in
Terrible Mess"
BLAMES DAUGHTER
Statement COntradicts
Mrs. M'Pherson's Tale
That Peace Reigns.
by United Press Leased Wire

LOS ANGELES, July 27-Mother
and daughter took steps here today
that may lead to one of the most
sensational court battles in the his
tory of Los Angeles as open war
fare again shook the portals of An
gelus temple, million dollar seat Of
the Four Square gospel.
"Affairs at the temple are in a
terrible mess, the worst in history
Mrs. Minnie Kennedy, mother of
Aimee Semple Mcpherson declared
here today announcing that her
daughter had told her to get an at
torney and fight it out in court.
"Mother' Kennedy returned here
from Taft last night where she stat
ed she was attending to business
for Mrs. Mcpherson.
"She organized revolt against
me while in the east, in her desire
to obtain sole control of the tenn
pie. - Mrs. Kennedy charged, de-
claring that while it had been her
desire to keep the trouble quiet she
was forced to state her side of the
case.
"She had hired an attorney and
invited me to do likewise ana
fight it out in court
"Mrs. Mcpherson has acted in an
un. n.Christianlike manner and she has
made mis-statements Of fact regard
ing me.
''She asked me to resign. Ta
whom will resign! She is trus-
tee and l am a trustee .and we are
both equal" " Mrs. Kennedy said
bitterly.
Mrs. Kennedy further charged
that her daughter sent her out OF
town-on a speaking trip to Taft
$50 she could grab the mail. grab
all the funds and take away my
share in controlling the temple"
Mrs. Mcpherson III
Mrs. Mcpherson s statements yes
terday that the trouble had been
settled are in direct contradiction
to that of her mother.
She said her mother had not ten
dered her resignation and would
not leave the temple.
"We will continue to direct the
affairs of the temple in spirit OF
Christian love and understanding,
she said.
Mrs. Mcpherson was i'll in bed
today, and was reported to have
collapsed following the 'tdeciara-
tion of war; by her mother.
The evangelist could not be
reached for a statement and no
temple official would volunteer any
information regarding the latest
split between the temple heads.
"We were Just two women work
ing together in what I thought was
Christian like spirit. Together
we built up this million dollar piant
and now she wants me to resign,
Mrs. Kennedy said.
"Mother" Kennedy declared
that as long as there was work 70
be done, Mrs. Mcpherson wanted
help. She charged that Mrs. Nc
pherson made statements in the pui.
nit regarding checks for employees
wages and that Mrs. Mcpherson had
said that Mrs. Kennedy had failed
TO countersign them before she
went to Taft.
"'Those statements were eruei
uncalled for, and falsehoods. l
signed all checks before | left AMI
think that it is only right ana
proper to retraet her statements
over the radio and in the newspap-
ers.
sT want to clear my name OF the
insinuation that have been spite
full in refusing to sign the cheeks.
"After 90 years of work l find
myself powerless and dereiict.

Grain Market

CHICAGO, FeH 4.-(P-Sharp up-
turns in July and September deliver
les of !wheat resulted today chiefly
from buying based on prospective farm
legislation at Washington. September
wheat climbed to a new high price rec
ord for the season. The wheat market
as a whole closed unsettled at the same
as yesterdays finish to 13s cents
unchanged to 3s cent advance, and pro-
visions varying from. 35 cents decline
to rise of five cents.
Aggressive demand for the more dis
tant deliveries of wheat was due large
ly to suggestions that proposed agri-
cultural enactments at Washington
would be most apt to affect July and
September wheat rather than May.
Besides it was pointed out the two
first named manths which represent
wheat yet to be grown are now sell
ing at unusual discounts under May
and the period is rapidly approaching
when the domestic crop damage re-
ports develop Meanwhile, visible
stocks of wheat in this country are
decreasing faster than year ago, with
May wheat still 80 cents below the
prices current at that time.
Much notice was also taken today of
the fact that despite big world ship
ments, wheat prices both in the United
States and Europe are lowering close
to the best level in several months.
Inferences We're drawn in some quar-
ters that European requirements of
wheat have been greatly under-esti-
mated and that a steady further de-
mand for wheat from North America
could be looked for In this connection
talk was heard that although Argen-
tina and Australia have already put
afloat more than 25,0OOOO0 bushels of
wheat this season, compared with only
about 2O,OOOO0O bushels in the cores

The preferred stocks recorded only
slight gains. Western Maryland COM
mon moved within a much narrower
range, closing slightly more than a
point higher at 331s. Other rails to
break into new high ground were the

cific duplicated last years record top.
On the other hand, Rock Island, Balti-
more & Ohio. Chesapeake & Ohio, New
York Central and several others lost
ground, but the losses were not large.
Oils were bought in large volume
towards the close, Barnsdall "a" and
"B", Phillips, Houston, Standard Oil of
New York and Colorado Fuel all touch
ing their highest levels since 1925 or
longer
General Motors, U. S. Steel common,

fell back, but the declines weresheld to

With the exception of coffee futures,
which broke 16 to 80 points, all the
principal commodity markets were

OLD-TIME BOOM
BOOSTS STOCK
PRICES FRIDAY

'otal stock sales, 2,O16,0OO shares

NEW YORK, Feb. 4. - P = Wall
street witnessed an old fashioned boom
in selected list of merger rails in
today's stock market.
The general list disclosed irregularity,
nearly two score issues being elevated
to their highest levels since 1925 or
longer, while dozens of others sagged
under the weight of weekend realiz-
ing and short selling. Trading showed
marked expansion in volume, the
days sales crossing the 100000 mark
for the second time this year.
There was little in the days trade
news to Influence the price movement
of securities, but there was improve
ment in sentiment in business and fl
nancial circles. Weekly mercantile re-
views reported quickening in sew
eEals lines of activity this week, but
the commodity price trend was still
downward. Copper prices were re-
ported to be around the lowest levels
in two years and there was further
easing in steel prices in some centers.
Credit conditions continued unusu-
ally favorable. Despite the recent in
crease in, stock market activity, call
money held steady at 4 per cent with
a plethora of funds available around
that figure. Time money dropped
slightly, being quoted at AS to " in
stead of on a flat AZ per cent basis.
Some concessions also were reported
in the commercial paper market, al
though the ruling rate for prime names
was to Az per cent While the re-
tention of the per cent rediscount
rate by the New York federal reserve
bank probably caused some disap-
pointment, it failed to bring out any
extensive liquidation of stocks Wall
street continues of the opinion that a
reduction in the local charge is inevi-
table, but there is a feeling in some
quarters that it may be delayed for as
long as a month.
Spectacular gyrations in the COM
mon stock of the Wheeling g. Lake
Erie, which scored an extreme gain of
is points by touching 80, and CLOSING
a point below the top, again provided
the chief individual feature. The pre-
ferred jumped six points to a new
peak at "a, but lost all ITS gain. After
the close of the market, the stock eX-
change announced that directors of the
Wheeling & Lake Erie would meet
Monday to consider plans for making
the prior lien and preferred stocks
convertible into common, presumably
as a means of alleviating the technical
corner in that issue.
wabash common was another out
standing feature, soaring 10 points to
57A on total transactions of over 49,,

evidence, but the movement of COM

levels of year ago, except perhaps,
in cotton goods, although this line was
little less active than during the
earlier weeks of the year.
Retail trade was still aided some

SAN BENITO, Oct. 24.-Miss Jean
NJ. Campbell, representative Of the
Texas Public Health association, is
in Cameron county in the interest of
the Texas Public Health ~associa-
ton, commonly known as the tuberc-
ulosis association.
Miss Campbell Is doing follow up
work in an attempt to permanently
organize Cameron county so that
Christmas seal sale money may be
retained within the county for nu-
triton and tuberculosis work rather
than taken out Of the county as
heretofore as has been done because
OF lack Of an organization to handle
the funds.
Hidalgo county has recently per-
fected such IN organization and the
Cameron county movement has been
endorsed by the Cameron County
Medical association with their aux
iliaries, the Brownsville Nursing
committee, the Cameron County
Health unit, the Parent-Teachers as
ISOLATION of a number of localities
and various other groups. Like or
CARNATIONS exist in all progressive
communities and it is expected that
Miss Campbell will be successful in
completing the organization here.
