PASTOR ACCEPTS CALL

The Rev. Oliver ]. Collins, of

pastorate of st. Paurs ME. Church
Wilmington, Thursday. Mr.. Col
Inns viii take up his work June
1st. Presiding Bishop Adna w.
Leonard and Resident Bishop Ed
win Holt Hughes (of the Washing
ton Area), transmitted the ap-
pointment under Wednesdays date,
and it was received at Wilmington
Thursday. District Superintend-
ent Disston w. Jacobs, who receiv-
ed the statements, turned it over
to William E. Skellenger, chairman
of the PASTORAL selection commit
tee of st. Paul's Church. The fol-
lowing is the letter sent by Bishop
Hughes to DR.. Jacobs to be given
to the press:
I'm regard to the situation
at st. Paul's Methodist Epis-
copal Church in Wilmington,
Bishop Adna w. Leonard, pre-
siding Bishop, and Bishop Ed
win H Hughes, resident Bis
hop, have given out the follow
ing statement:
THE desire of the Pastoral
Relations Committee from st.
Paul's Church relating to an
appointment to their pastorate
was communicated to the Pre-
siding Bishop only at the open
ing of the Conference at Re-
hoboth Beach, and not in suf-
ficient time for the fullest con-
sideration. In addition, certain
courtesies of procedure were
doubtless unintentionally omit
ted in dealing with those
charged with the sacred and
official duty of decision with
reference to appointments Due
amends have been made, and
explanations offered and ac-
cepted, that several of the
Laymen had not been accus-
toned to acting on such
Committee.
"The pastor for whose ap-
pointment the st. Paul's Com
mittee asked, has borne him
self in an altogether admirable
manner In view of all the
conditions, we have consented
to the appointment of the Rev.
o. ]. Collins as pastor of st.
Paul's Church, effective June

sion with the earnest prayer
for Gods blessing upon him

sity for many States, a further
appropriation must be made be-
fore the end of this special ses-
sion.
Il find a clear need for some
simple Federal machinery to CO.
ordinate and check these grants
of aids. I am, therefore. asking
that you establish the office of
Federal Relief Administrator,
whose duty it will be to scan
requests for grants and to check
the efficiency and wisdom Of
their use.
Forestry Proposal
1.-THE first of these measures
which have enumerated, how
ever, can and should be i'm
mediately enacted. I propose to
create a civilian conservation
corps to be used in simple work,
not interfering with normal en-
ployment, and confining itself
to forestry, the prevention of
soil erosion, flood control and
similar projects.
IT call your attention to the
fact that this type Of work is
of definite, practical value, not
only through the prevention Of
also as a means Of creating
great present financial loss, but
future national wealth. This is
brought home by the news we
are receiving today Of vast
damage caused by floods on
the Ohio and other rivers.
"ontrol and direction of such
work can be carried on by ex-
listing machinery of the Depart

mentS OF Labor, Agriculture,
War and Interior.
II estimate that 25O,O0O men
can be given temporary employ
ment by early summer if you
give me authority to proceed
within the next two weeks.
Seeks No New Funds
I ask no new funds at this
time. The use of unobligated
funds, now appropriated for pub
lie works, will be sufficient for
several months.
This enterprise is an estab-
lished part of our national
policy. It will conserva our pre-
viouS natural resources. It will
make improvements in national
and State domains which have
been largely forgotten in the
past few years of industrial de-
velopment.
More important, however,
than the material gains will be
the moral and spiritual value of
such work. The overwhelm-
ing majority of unemployed
Americans, who are now walk
ing the streets and receiving
private or public relief, would
infinitely prefer to work.
We can take a vast army of
these unemployed out into
healthful surroundings. We
can eliminate to some extent at
least the threat that enforced
idleness brings to spiritual and
moral stability. It is not a
panacea for all the unemploy-
ment, but it is an essential step
in this emergency. I ask its
adoption.

A[T|MORE
BANKS REOPEN

BALTIMORE, March 21.-The
Baltimore Trust Company and
the Union Trust Company opened
their doors today on a 5 per cent
withdrawal basis.
The two had hoped to reor-
ganize as national banks, but this
plan was blocked by the Treasury
Department, which ruled that de-
posts in the trust companies
could not be used for purchase Of
stock in the new banks without
the explicit consent of the deposi-
tors.
Under the reopening plan, 5
per cent of the old deposits will
be transferred to new accounts,
while new deposits will be sub
ject to withdrawal without re-
striction.
w. Mason Sheehan, attorney
for a Talbot county bank, charged
that half of the Eastern Shore
banks now closed or operating
on a restricted basis would open
in full if they were able to get
their reserve deposits out Of Balti-
more banks, which they are
unable to do under the emer-
gency act.

BALTIMORE, March 81 GIN.
S0.-Discovered at last some
thing Maryland drugstores won't
sell!
It's beer.
The executive committees of
the Maryland Pharmaceutical
Association and the Baltimore
Retail Druggists Association
voted it would be inappropriate
for druggists to sell beer be-
cause it is apparent that "alco-
holic beer and other malt
liquors are wanted by the public
as beverages and not as medi-
cineS."

COURT R Jules
ONLEFT TURN

Judge J. Chew Sheriff in the
Hyattsville police court yesterday
dismissed reckless driving charges
against the driver of an auto
mobile which cGluded with one
making left turn.
Judge Sheriff fined Melvin M.
Topping, of Shepherd Street,
Hyattsville, s2.95 on a charge of
reckless driving after Topping ad-
rnitted he made a stop in the
center of Rhode island Avenue
at Park Avenue, Hyattsville, be-
fore continuing to make his left
turn.
Topping's automobile was struck
by one operated by Francis j.
Darnell, also of HyattSville. In
dismissing the charge against
Darnell, Judge Sheriff said:
"This case shows how few
drivers know how to properly
make a left turn. He (TOpping)
stopped and then made the
turn at slow speed. 1t is his
own fault; he should have re-
mained stopped and given Dar-
nell the right-Of-way."
Leroy S. Bendheim. Topping's
attorney, said an appeal will be
filed. The accident occurred on
March IA.

TAXPAYER SEEN
TOO GREATLY
BURDENED
Commissioners to Recommend
Delay Until Economic
Situation Is Eased

Believing it almost impossible
now to convince any taxpayer
that his assessment should be in
creased either by equalization or
otherwise, the Montgomery Coun-
ty Commissioners today voted to
recommend to State Senator Rob-
ert G. Hilton and members of
the House Of Delegates that the
present reaSsessment law be sus-
pended until the early part of
1895.
In doing so, however, they said
they were still convinced that the
plan Of assessment for the county
enacted into law by the 1891 seS-
sion Of the Maryland Legislature
is the wisest and fairest plan
under which to make future re-
assessments or equalizations of
assessments Of all the property Of
Montgomery county.
Depression Cited
The commissioners declared that
1t was only with extreme diff
Guilty that the "full fair cash
value" which is required by the
general Maryland tax law to be
used as a basis Of assessment
throughout the State can be de.
termined at this time due to gen.
eral nationwide economic con-
ditionS.
The decision reached today
caused the commissioners to dis
pense with the services of the
two assistant assessors, r. E.
Hamilton, and Major Phil D.
PoSton, without prejudice and
with due appreciation Of the
faithful and efficient manner in
which they discharged their
duties"
Investment Held Good
This leaves Chief Assessor A.
H. Griffith to assess new con-
struction in the county.
The money spent in connection
with the revaluation Of property
in the suburban part of the
county during the past 1S months
is well invested, they believe, as
the records as to construction,
value and size Of all structures
and parcels Of land are county
property and the county for the
first time has a complete and
detailed description of all Of that
part Of the county, together with
a sound system for such work. :.

Senator George w. Norris, Of

under direct presidential control.
Norris declared railroad and
power regulation and similar ac-
tivities might as well be abol

political appointees."
ProgreSsives, many Of whom are
known to share Norris views, be-
Ieve President Roosevelt is un-

sideration of their views. Norris
demanded:

tend, particularly since the AS
have been able to defeat the
Griffs no less than five times
here in six starts during the cam
paign.
Next are the games with the
New York Yankees, beginning
Thursday at Griffith Stadium
and lasting until Sunday. Another
bracket of important battles, the
GriffS opine, but games that'll
mean a great deal to them in the
current pennant race if only VIC
tories can be registered.
just how the Griffs fare in all
these skirmishes remains to be
seen.
Important Week
There's no doubt the week
promises to be a very important
one in the lives of the players,
as on the results Of the respec-
tive contests could hinge the
turning point of the heated pen
nant fight now being waged with
!,the New York Yankees for first
place. But we won't go into that
too deeply, as the season still will
have many days to go after this
week and many things can and
will happen before the last date
Of the season, October /.
One thing about the situation,
however, from a Griff standpoint
will be the pitching and hitting
the team will receive. If Cronin's
gang can get both pitching and
hitting in the several ga m S,
they'll be sure to be on top of
the pack by sundown next Sum-
day. Yesterday against the De
troit Tigers, in the final game of
the series, the team got all the
hitting it needed to win the av-
erage game, but the pitching was
way off, particularly in the late
innings, when the Tigers couldn't
be retired.
"That game was just one Of
those games where everything
went wrong at the most inOp-
perfume time" Manager CrOnin
unused today. But those kind
Of contests don't roll around
every day, thank goodness. This
week I really believe we'll get
both good pitching and hitting,
as all the boys are anxious to
win the pennant now and will
be keyed up to the Importance
of winning, beginning today and
lasting at least until Sunday,
when we will have met what
we consider our strongest foes"
Seek Victories
The Griffs will be out for spe-
cial triumphs in this Philadelphia
series during the next three days
