PROTESTANT CLERGY
FAVOR FIXED EASTER
Many Also Back New Calendar of
10 Months With 81 Days To
Quarter

A survey of Protestant clergymen
in this country indicates that they
favor reform of the calendar and a
fixed Easter. according to a report
issued by the World Calendar Asso-
citation Of 4S5 Madison Avenue, New
York, for the Universal Christian
Council meeting this month in Fano,
Denmark.
The proposed new calendar re-
tains the twelve-mOnth year, but
regulates it into multiples of halves
and quarters with each quarter con-
sisting of three months of thirteen
weeks or ninety-One days. Each
month has twenty-six week-days and
each quarter has thirteen Sundays.
The association advocating the re-
form points out that the revised
calendar conforms to the seasons
and stabilizes religious and secular
holidays. The last day of the year
is considered Year-End Day as an
extra Saturday between Dec. 80 and
Jan. l. and the 366th day in leap
years is considered another extra
Saturday between June 80 and
j ulg Isl.
A survey of LIS clergymen by
the United Press brought 907 replies
favoring the revised calendar in
preference TO a proposed thirteen
month calendar, and votes of 1887
Clergymen a fixed Easter. The sur
vey was conducted in cooperation
with the Universal Christian Coun-
Gil of Churches.
The Right Rev. William T. Man
ming. Bishop of the Protestant Epic
copal Diocese of New York. replied
in the survey as follows:
"A fixed Easter and a reformed
is greatly to be desired for
many reasons and the churches
Christiandom should
take the lead in this matter and ex-
press themselves through their gov
erning bodies"

took notice of il and instead OF
writing their usual spring poems
they induled in strange outbreaks
of poetastry of which the following
was a fair sample:

Can't you stop your ugly scowls
Altogether?

Fruit Gr0wers Benefit
From NeID Test For Lead

Fruit growers, shippers, and
others vitality concerned with the
problem of removing the residue of
lead left after spraying for insect
control will find this season that
they can save both time and money
in the testing of the fruit after
washing to determine whether the
lead has been effectively removed.
Since the last shipping season H.
J.. Wichman and associates in the
food control laboratory of the Fed
eral Food and Drug Administration
have developed new methods to de-
termine quickly and cheaply the ex-
act quantity of lead residue on
fruits. Food officials require that the
lead be removed to a point of abso-
lutte safety from the public-health
standpoint.
BY this new method chemist
can make 10 times as many accu-
rate determinations in a day as ne
could make in days by the old test.
The new test method produces re-
suits in about half an hour. The old
method took days. The apparatus
is simple and the tests will be less
expensive. Furthermore. a CONNER
cial chemist will be able to report
results to the owner of the fruit so
promptly that if certain chemical
wash is not cleaning the fruit eff
ciently, only a half hours output
will have to be rewGshed. The old
3-day method frequently interfered
with the orderly movement of ship
ments when suspected lots had to
be held until the test was complet-
ed.
The new test is also being employ !
ed by Federal chemists in cOnnec- !
tion with regulatory control Of |
sprayed fruits under the Federal
pure-foOd law. Food officials point |
out that the rapidity of the new
test makes for greater public health
protection through the opportunity
now open for testing a considerably
greater proportion of fruit entering
he channels of commerce than has
been possible.
