 The meeting will be held at na- tional headquarters, 4S5 Madison avenue, New York city and repre- sentatives of the organizations AZ state divisions and the District of Columbia are expected to attend.
 "The meeting has been called in accordance with the action of the national conference of the organi- zation last April" Mrs Sabin sta ted in discussing the purpose of the sessions. "At that time our orr ganization was unable to make any decision as to the part we would take in the presidential campaign. as neither party had as yet adopted a platform or select ed it's nominee. For this reason the conference adopted resolution in structing the executive committee to meet after the national politi- cal conventions to determine the organizations policy. On Thurs day we will be able to consider the platform and candidate of both parties in. their relation to repeal of the 18th amendment.

FATHER PINEAU
 GOES TO SPOKANE
Celebrated Mass in St Mary Magdalene Church
 Sunday Morning
HAS MANY FRIENDS HERE

Rev Joseph H.. Pineau. former resident of Oakville. who was or- dained in Canada few weeks ago left yesterday for Spokane, Wash, where he will enter upon his new parochial assignment. Father Pineau returned to Oakville last Sunday to renew acquaintances with number of friends and to fulfill a personal destire to cele-' brate mass in St Mary Magdalene's church. The young priest is inci- dentally former employe of the Oakville Pin company.
 Having become imbued with the ambition to become 8 priest Father Pineau entered St Thomas semin- ary in Hartford 'in 1922. He completed his studies in philosophy and theology in St Mary's Balti- more,> where he was the classmate of a number of Waterbury youths.
 So that his aged parents might witness the fulfIllment of his life's wish, his ordination, he was per- mitted to return to Hope River in the French Edward Islands where he was ordained on May 22nd by Most Reverend Augustin A. O'Sul- livan. St Ann's is Father Pi- neu's native parish and he re- mained to celebrate his first solemn high mass in the church in which he was ordained, which is an un- usual feature in priests career. t Following a vacation in his na- tive town Father Pineau received word to proceed to Spokane, where he had been assigned.

Last night the first stunt night of the year at the Y camp proved a huge success. Unlimited talent was uncovered in the sixteen acts presented by the tents in each vil- lage. In the Junior village, Tent II with their act Sharp Shootin took first prize with a clever exhi- bition of difficult and dangerous shots by William Baldwin, Frank Ga briel, John Coolidge, Robert Hills. Ed Tucker, F. Burns furnished ex- cellent and steady target holders for the Prof. Tent of the juniors with the skit My Franklin" re- ceived second place being closely crowded by Tent with London Bridge; Tent had "The Opera ton on Alexander Throttlebottom" i; Tent with How We Wake. Our Tent Leader; and Tent 12 in sThe Murder in the Lighthouse.
 The middler section featured many of the former years stellar stars and a surprising group of new material who came into the open to challenge the position of the former actors in the Tespian act. Tent 1 with an original skit, "A Day In Camp" featuring Dick Atwood, John Coperthwait, R. Alt wood, Robert. Brodie, William Ford Don Hartwell, Sam Spalding. took first place in the Middler group.

the Connecticut Company. It is expected that the proposal is Q voluntary offer of the unions to sign a contract for a new schedule of wages which will be 10 per cent less than their former contract.
 When by an overwhelming state vote employees refused :. to accept the recommended 25 per cent 'cut, the Connecticut Company selected as it's representative in arbitration proceedings It's counsel. Joseph F. Berry. The union selected Judge P. B. O'Sullivan. It was agreed that the two would select the third arbiter, but after suggestions had been made it was found impossible to reach a satisfactory agreement.
 Within the week the union will make it's compromise offer, one approved by a statewide ballot. whether the officials of the com pany will accept 1t is of course a matter of conjecture, but 1t will open ,up new avenues in which an amicable settlement is expected to be brought about very shortly.

Union Service
 on Parish Lawn
Sermon By Rev Samuel
 Budde of Christ Chapel

Speaking at the union service at St Johns parish lawn Sunday
 evening, the Rev Samuel Budde or Christ chapel said in part:
 .sThe Lord your God is the God
 of Gods and Lord of Lords"
 Noses declaration to the Israelites, was his text. Moses, he said. might have set up a monarchy, a dicta- torship, or even a republic but tn-
 stead he bound the people together in a theocracy and pounded into them the ideal of the one and only
 God. It is tribute to the Jews that they refused to consider variety of Gods or to worship images but hewed out this ideal. that while there might be many Gods. Jehovah was the God of Gods and Lord of Lords.
 "There Is as much value in that ideal to-day as when Moses voiced it." he said, '.No one is able to take the place of God himself. If there Is q supreme place in your
 mind. 1t belongs to God. If there is a supreme loyalty you owe to one another, there is Q greater
 loyalty you owe to God.
 "There is . great deal of talk to- day about food and work. What does Jesus say about food and sheiterf He said. we must never place the emphasis on these as ends in themselves, that that they are only means to ai, end. He said that f. Q man will seek first the Kingdom of God and his righteous ness all those things will be added unt0 him. The trouble has been
 that great many people have cvoremphaslzod these things 60
 that they have become ends in themselves. rho trouble has been that we pursued Mammcn. All our
 emphasis was placed on the ace, quisition ef material things.
 'sIt is time now that we piaced the emphasis on something else Go fife. is ia sinte for q renewal of annnalnusneng in God as thB uod 0f fia<1H and Lord Of Lords"

BONE DRY BILL
= ACTION FRIDAY

If there is a representative at
tendance of it's members the Sen
ate District Committee probably
will vote at its regular meeting
Friday on the Howell "bone dry"
prohibition bill which would i'm
pose a separate and drastic en-
forcement code upon the Capital.
During hearings on the bill the
committee attendance was slim,
although the room was jammed
by wet and dry spokesmen. AS
the bill is highly controversial,
Chairman Arthur Capper, of the
District group, will issue a special
plea that all members attend the
Friday meeting and dispose of
the Howell measure.
The bill was reported during
the past session after a poll of
absent committee members, but
the watchful opposition of Sena-
tor TydingS CD Maryland, Sena.
tor Blaine (R), Wisconsin and
other liberals thwarted the ef-
forts of the dry author of the
bill to bring it to a vote on Sen.

GARNER LAUGHS
At ATTACK
h BY MOSES

Speaker John N. Garner lost no
time last night in replying to an
attack against him earlier in the
day by Senator Moses, Of New
Hampshire, president pro tempore
Of the Senate.
The Republican leader had de-
cared in an ironical statement
that the Speakers recent critic
ism of President Hoover marked
formal opening Of Mr.. Gamers
Campaign for the Presidency"
The Speaker Friday had re-
marked of President Hoover:
"Since he has been President
he has led us into the greatest
panic the country or world has
ever known"
This prompted Senator Moses to
declare that, to be consistent:
Speaker Garner should have
accused Mr.. Hoover Of being re-
spOnSibIe for all the ills of the
0rld, incl Idine the SinO-Japa-
nese war, bolshevism in Russia
and the economic collapse in
Central Europe"
The Speaker retorted:
Senator Moses statement
covers considerable territory. 1t
would indicate that to this is
given about the same amount Of
thought as to his famous re.
mark when he referred to Re-
publican Senators from the
West as "Sons Of the wild jack
ass
I'm fact, the Senator's state
ment will be, as usual, quite
amusing to the reactionarieS in
the Republican party"
