REV.ABERNETHY
CHOSEN HEAD
Of BAPT|STS
No Other Nomination Received
At Convention; "PeaCe at
Any Price" Demanded

Nomination of the Rev. w. s.
Abernethy, pastor of Calvary Bap-
tist Church, Eighth and H SITS
N. w., as president of the next
convention was the outstanding
action of the Northern Baptist
Convention, meeting in the Wash
ington Auditorium today. There
was no other nomination for the
presidency. Election of officers
will be held tomorrow.
Though the nomination of DR..
Abernethy was without opposi-
ton, war clouds hung over the
pacific Baptists today. Theirs was
the demand for peace at any
price, even if we have to fight for
it,"
And 1t looked as though there
might quite possibly be fight.
Condemnation Planned
The high light of the conven.
ton thus far came last night at
meeting of the Resolutions
Committee. at which it was pro.
posed to draw up drastic con-
demnation of war and of Bap-
lists participating in any war.
Before the committee got
around to adopting the resolu-
tion, however, Gen. Amos A.
Fries, U. S. A.. retired, vice
president of the National Patri-
otic Council, arrived to speak on
Atheism in Schools and Col
ieges." While his talk was rela-
lively innocuous, it was regarded
as likely to give him an oppor-
tunity to denounce the Federal
Council of Churches and the
pacific attitude of some present
day churches. He was denied
the floor.
Shortly thereafter. Mrs. Noble
Newport Potts, nationally known
patriotic worker, quietly entered
the meeting room and presented
resolution of her own.
Mrs. Potts is a Presbyterian.
She Opposes Pacifism
Her resolution demanded an
adequate national defense, opposi-
ton to the recognition of Russia
and opposition to "namby-pamby
pacifism."
Although the resolution failed
of adoption, it was said to have
had some effect on the commit
tee. The Rev. John T. Raymond,
of Bay City, Mich. succeeded in
having the resolution condemn
ing war greatly modified, accord
ing to reports after the commit
tee adjourned.
The whole question of pacifism
is expected to be fought out by
the convention as q whole late
today or tomorrow. 1t was pre-
dicted today that a resolution
against war will be adopted.
Besides the Rev. Abernethy,
other new officers nominated
were DR.. w. A. Spencer, first
vice president, and DR.. c. W.
Kemper, second vice president.

THIS IDEA
Reason for Delay in Naming
Commissioners; Part of
U. S. Reorganization

President Roosevelt has not
named the new District Commis-
Sioners because he expects to
exercise his authority under the
bill permitting him to reorganize
the Federal Government and set
up city manager regime for
Washington.
That was the substance Of a
report that was current on Capt.
tol Hill today and which was said
to have emmanated from the
White House.
Persons who claimed to know
were quoted as saying that the
what the President has in mind
city manager plan would be made
public when the President reveals
to Congress before the special
session adjourns his scheme for
reorganizing departments.
The President, it was said, has
been offered several plans for re-
organizing the District govern
ment, most of them being CEN
tra1ized on the one-man control
idea.
Some credence was given to the
report by the fact that on June
4 the new Administration will be
beginning it's fourth month of
tenure. While patronage gener-
ally has been held up until Con-
gress jumps through the hoop
and enacts legislation that the
President recommends, it was
pointed out that the appoint
ment of the District Commission
ers does not come under this
category.

FESTIVE
AS BUREAUS
NEAR SHIFT IS
Employees Warned to Reveal
Truth on Marital Status;
Politics Charges Fly

With the zero hour of Federal
reorganization approaching, Gov
ernment workers today are await
ing, with some apprehension, the
presentation of President Roose-
velt's program to Congress.
Efficiency ratings as Of May
Is have been completed for most,
If not for all Government units.
These will figure in the proSpec-
tive dismissals and furloughs the
reorganization will require.
Meanwhile, cards are being cir
culated among employees of GER
tain departments and offices
querying the recipients as to
their marital status and warning
them that evasion or untruthS in
the replies will mean prompt
dismissal.
Navy DismissalS
The Navy Department is re-
leasing 203 employees as of June
/. More than 1,400 hospital en-
ployes in the department are
likewise slated to go.
Army and Navy officers will
be furloughed in considerable
number, but many of the former
will get jobs with the reforesta-
ton units. Certain Navy medi-
cal officers marked for ousting
also will get into the forest units.
In general, civilian employees
probably will be dismissed or
furloughed as of July /. The
method of working ont dismissal
status is by no means clear as
yet, for the reason that the ap-
portionment provision of the in.
dependent offices bill has COM
plicated matters considerably and
no one knows as yet just where
apportionnent will fit in the
scheme.
Many Appeals Due
In any event, there undoubtedly
will be many appeals from the
action of executive officers in
designating employees for disn1is-
sal or furlough, and Tor that rea-
son Representative William I.
Sirovich DD of New York ex-
poets White House approval of
his bill for a Civil Service Court.
He feels that the White House
will be overrun with complaints.
and that his proposed "liaison Of
ficer' would take those duties
out of the province of the Presi-
dent.
Opponents of his view suggest
that the Civil Service Commits
sion undertake the task he would
assign to the liaison officer, and
point out that the commission
could readily do so. 1t is too big
a. job for any one man anyhow,
in the opinion of many critics of
Sirovich's measure.
Politics Charged
Meanwhile complaints already
are arising as to alleged political
influence in the emergency or
CARNATIONS. The Administra-
tion's theory has been that rou-
tine Government operations would
be cut to the limit and that new
organizations, presumably tenn
porary, would carry out the
emergency measures.
These have been hailed by pa
tronage-seeking Democrats as Of
fering many chances for jobs. and
there has been much pressure to
keep the civil service out Of
them.
The first crop of complaints
along this line has to do with
the crop productions loan Of
flee, where, it is said, employees
with civil service status are being
dropped in preference to those
who have political pull, and that
the latter are being sent almost
exclusively into the field service.
