COMPROMISE ON
PROBLEM GIVEN
CHURCH FARLEY
M. (. Committee Fails to
Make Attack on
Profit Motive.
BIZ United Press

By United Press
COLUMBUS. o., May 1.-THE at
tack on the profit motive in Amer
lean business, a cause of church
dissention for four years, was alb
sent today from the recommended
ton for a announcement on social
and economic motives before the
general conference of the Methodist
Episcopal Church.
Sidestepping liberal demands for a
definite recommendation for change
but denouncing ''grasping interests"
and ''privation in the midst of
plenty" the State of the Church
Committee offered middle-of the
road resolution which may allay the
anticipated liberal conservative bat
tie on the conference floor.
A subcommittee which drafted
the recommendation had received
resolutions demanding expansion of
liberal principles and retraction of
the 1882 statement branding the in
dustrial order ''unChristian, un.
ethical and anti-social because it is
largely based on the profit motive,
which is direct appeal to selfish
neS."
Designed to Foster Unity
DR.. G.. Bromley OMAN, subcom-
mittee chairman, said the resolution
was designed to foster church unity
1T is better to have a united
church studying social issues
scientifically, in Christian spirit
than divided church fighting over
it," DR.. OMAN. president of De
Pauw University, said.
The recommendation probably
will reach the conference floor to-
morrow.
One of three white bishops re-
manned unchosen today after DR..
Edwin F. Lee, missionary bishop
for Eastern Asia. failed by 20 votes
on the seventh ballot to receive the
378 necessary for election. DR.
Harry w. Mcpherson, president of
Illinois Wesleyan University, was
second with 173 votes.
The unofficial Methodist Fedora
ton for Social Service, target OF
Communist" barbs from conServa-
tive ministers and laymen, escaped
cenSure in the state of the church
committee report.
It's proposed solution for economic
inequalities of substituting a planned
social economy for proft-motivt
economics was described withou
comment.
while we do not pass Judgment
upon the technique of attainment
We as Methodists do declare our.
selves in favor of personality max.
ing economy 4. wherein the fun
damental objective is fullness of life
for all" the resolution said.

BARRYMORE SHINES
Actor March, who has impressed
this critic as walking through too
many pictures recently, actually
meltS and bites into a salty role
as a French lieutenant. Running
right beside him for the main
laurel is Warner Baxter, as the
greatest war officer in all France.
and one who feeds on aspirin and
cognac, Both give 18-karat per.
formanceS.
However, 1t is Lionel Barrymore
as old Pap La Roche who gives
this picture a wallop between shot
and shell. A whiskered veteran Of
Napoleon'S pet regiment, who
longs to blow his bugle in No
Mans Land, he gets to the front
by subterfuge, manages to sound
off on the trumpet before a mis-
placed barrage blows him to bits.
Barrymore's work is truly great.
Modern warfare, he proves, has
no place for old age.
Road to Glory" has a cleverly
built up suspense scene when a
platoon in the trenches goes
through all the horrors Of know
ing the enemy is planting a mine
beneath their shelter. It has also
many Sickening and grim Incl
dents which remind of "All Quiet
on the Western Front" and What
Price Glory" Little June Lang,
given a role beyond her emotional
stature, just can't make the love
scenes stand up.
COMEDY RELIEF
Nobody in pictures can do more
with little than Gregory Ratoff.
In Road to Glory" he supplies
what Hollywood calls comedy re-
lief. Mostly with his tangled
dialect English as a platoon cor
poral. He is good for many
laughs at the right time and
talked Director Howard Hawks
into letting him do a dying scene.
Well, I didn't shed any tears, but
I know now why producers don't
let comedians play Hamlet.
Road To Glory" Is by Joel
Sayre and william Faulkner, two
experienced authors. They have
created a powerful preachment
against human sacrifice and
would seem to hit the screens at
a very appropriate time.
Road to Glory" is a three.Star
picture in any mans league, good
anti-war propaganda. It comes to
the Capitol screen on Friday.
