GERMAN RELIGIOUS
CRISIS PUT OFF
Further Negotiations Await
ed in Protestant Comics.
sional Synod Dispute.
BY the Associated Press.


BERLIN, August 31-The crisis
confronting the Protestant Confes-
sional Synod lutheran opposition)
was put of temporarily today as SO
often in the past pending further con-
fldential negotiations between Hans
Kerrl, Deputy in charge Of church af-
fairs, and leaders Of the synod.
Kerrl, after telling the opposition
pastors they must reply immediately
as to whether they would accept his
decree embodying state management
of church affairs, appeared hesitant
to dissolve the Confessional Synod.
Men close to the religious dispute
said Kerrl believed that he could some
how win over the Confessional Synod
leaders to recognition of state manage
ment Of the church.
To show his neutrality, Kerrl has
let the impression gain ground that he
also desires to shear Reichsbishop Lud-
wig Mueller of his power.
The impression in Protestant circles
was that Kerrl himself wanted to d.
the administrative work.

Short covering was factor in
the better tone. The trade, Wall

supporting the market. The spot

sellers and the South continued
to liquidate. Some hedging was
in evidence. The market was
quiet and thin, and the influx
of Far Eastern buying in the

trend of the market.
Towards noon. the market
held steady at small net gains.
December was quoted at $11.14,

LIGHT PLANT VOTE
OF CAMDEN V0IDED
Referendum Petition Held Signed
by Too Few-Loan Not
Ruled On.

BY the Associated Press.
TRENTON, N. j., September 21.-
The Supreme Court today set aside
proceedings under which the city OF
Camden voted a referendum to con-
struct its own electric light plant.
The court said it appeared from the
proofs submitted that the petition re-
questing the referendum was not
signed by the requisite number Of
voters.
The suit to set aside was brought by
the Public Service Electric and Gas
Co., which said Camden proposed to
construct its plant with $4,000, 900
Federal loan. Public Service attacked
the right Of the P. w. A. to loan money
to build municipality plants, but
the court did not rule on that ques-
ton.
