Protestant Conference Told
OF Opportunity to Build

WESTMINSTER, Md, June 12.-
The Baltimore Conference of the
Methodist Protestant Church pre-
pared today to decide its position for
or against unification of the three
branches Of Methodism. The ballot
ing marked highlight of the 10sth
annual session of the conference.
Last night, in an address to the
clergy and laity, DR.. James H.
Straughn, newly y-elected president of
the general conference Of the church,
voiced definite approval of the move.
Methodist union," he said, "af-
fords the greatest opportunity for
making an effective adjustment Of our
churches to the day in which we
live. All three are making their
contribution, and here Is the mag
nif1cent chance to build, as the Meth
odist union does propose, a new
church for the new day in which we
live"
DR.. Strsughn set "the application
of Christian principles to all relation
ships Of life," as one of the objectives
to be attained by the church. Uni
fication, he pointed out, would make
the goal easier to obtain.
The general conference head criti-
cized what he called the "prof1t-mak-
ing system" -.
DR.. Straughn said the church does
not know how to run industry, but it
does know that any system must be
bad that destroys for the sake Of gain
personality and hope and confidence
in life"
Among the many adjustments the
church must make is that of the social
gospel, the application of Christian
principles to all relationships Of life"
DR. Straughn asserted.
Chief among them is the agitation
centering around the profit
IN business. To the average layman
not distinguishing between profits and
the profit motive this is none other
than some form of Socialism, and
which to them is the advocacy of a
new economic and social order.
DR.. Il. A. Sexsmith, president Of the
bAlILllO1C SOuACA CAlSCJ dLlO 1COt &c w.
Crabbe, superintendent of the Mary
land Anti-Saloon League, spoke against
the liquor trade.
Eight men were elected to the board
of managers Of the Superannuate Fund

CRITICS DEATH
HAS POLICE
BAFFLED

SAN MATEO, Cal, July 6
O.N.S0.-Conflicting theories in
the mysterious death of Junius
Cravens, IS, nationally known
art critic, formerly of New York,
baffled police today.
CravenS' broken body, unidenti-
fled for "a hours, was found near
Salada Beach at the base Of a
$50 foot cliff last Friday. His
neck and jaw were broken.
Sheriff j. j. McGrath believed
CravenS had met death acct
dentally in a fall from the cliff.
Coroner William Crosby, stress
ing the fact that there we're no
scratches on CravenS' body, be-
lieved that he was murdered.
ROut Fall Theory
Crosby pointed out that the
victims clothing would have been
torn and the body scratched in
the plunge down the cliff.
Meanwhile, the visit of a mys-
terry woman in a bathing suit to
CravenS' apartment in San Fran
cisco last Thursday was solved.
The landlady of the apartment
house reported that the mystery
woman had appeared with two
police officers and forced their
way into the apartment.
Police revealed that Mrs.
Charles N. FELTON,, her niece, and
a Bohemian friend of Cravens,
enlisted aid of authorities. Two
officers climbed through a win
dow and let the friends into
CravenS' apartment. It was
feared that the critic, who had
been in i'll health, had collapsed.
Had No Enemies
The murder theory was also
secuted by Henry Eickhoff, attor-
ney, and James M. Hamill, inSur-
ance company executive, both
friends of CravenS. Eickhoff ex-
planned:
"Cravens was not the type Of
man to have any vicious enc
ulACSS AAV was dAA UuSuOUE CAAGAu"
SiaSt-a great walker. This
stretch of the beach where his
body was found was one Of his
favOrite spots"
Cravens had been writing a his
tory of California art for a Works
Progress Administration project
here.
A letter found among his effects
showed that he intended to resign
his WPA position. The letter was
dated June 80, the day before he
disappeared. 1t was addressed to
DR.. James B. Sharp, coordinator
Of WPA projects.
A brother of the dead man was
located by San Mateo county au-
thorities in Boston, Mass.
Coroner Crosby reported that
the brother is sending an air mail
letter. Crosby commented:
81 understand wire from the
brother said the letter will ex-
plain everything"
