asked by four elders of the Metho-

appoint q committee of IL church
men to investigate a set Of new
charges they have preferred
against Bishop. James Cannon, jr.,
left here early today.
It could not be learned whether
the bishop is returning to Bir-
Iningham or whether he is going
to washington for a possible con-
ference with the accused Can

campaign. It is probable the in

pointed soon,
Bishop Ainsworth and the
elders making the charges, the
nature Of which remains q closely
guarded secret, met here last
night and held a four-hour ses

Douthit raped a hard grounder

Grimes, instead Of getting away
fast for second ambled along.
Boley made a great backhand
stop, and, seeing he still had a
chance to get Grimes he tossed
to Bishop at second for a force
out. Grimes loafed until too
late. And the next batter, Adams,
singled. II Grimes had popped

flee, launched into the second day
Of its six weeks session today by
organizing itself into working
committees. .-.
The most important Of these,
the committee of economic ex-
perts. already began functioning
under the direction Of Chairman
Sir Sidney Chapman.
The detailed discussions which
viii engage the delegates in the
next six weeks may culminate in
conclusions that will have an i'm.
portant bearing on the political
and economic trends Of the world,
and particularly the destiny Of
the British Empire.
For Economic Unit
Headed. by Prime Minister Mac
Donald and the premiers Of five
self.governing dominions as well
as representatives of the Irish
Free State and India, the con-
ference represents a quarter OF
the worlds population.
Indications on the opening day
were that the delegates, ashore
cast, would center their efforts in
knitting the British Empire more
closely together in one vast eco
nomic union.
The inaugural addresses. deliv-
cred one after another following
that Of Premier Macdonald, who
presided, touched merely on the
generalities Of the tasks before
the gathering. Only two Of the
speeches gave hint Of fireworks
to come.
King George, in response to a
message Of felicitation from the
delegates, declared he would
closely follow every development
Of the conference.

While most Of the premiers
confined themselves for the pres
ent to broad statements without
touching upon more specific mat
ters, Premier James HertZog. of
South Africa. and Foreign Min
lister Patrick McGilligan, Of the
Irish Free State, choose to stress
Immediately the subject closest to
the heart Of their constituents.
Premier Hertzog, referring to
the matter of dominion status

policy on tariffs in regard to tar
ifs with some acrimony. He con-
Glued with what some of the
