COLOR LINE DROPPED
BY METHODIST GROUP

Boston-Zion's Herald, century,
old journal of American Methodism,
asked editorial1y in its current
issue:
When will some white conference
f the Methodist Episcopal Church
invite Negro bishop to preside at
is annual session as a demonstration
of brotherhood?
By coincidence, the question was
answered before the magazine was
off the press.
The New Hampshire conference
of the church by vote of 40 to II,
has requested that a Negro bishop
be assigned to preside at the next
session when the resident bishop is
unable to preside. All members of
the conference are white.
The action was unprecedented in
the 15O-year history of American
Methodism, and is believed to be in
spired by the growing conviction of
church leaders that the church suf-
fers by comparison with the agrees
sive championship of the rights of
the Negro people by the Communist
Party of the United States, and
groups under its influence.

Prepared by the

American iron worker, and perfected by Henry Bessemer in England. Kelly and Bessemer gave birth to the steel age.
 Through spectacular reductions in the cost of producing steel, this useful sub- stance has been made available for the manufacture of an ever-increasing diver sity of products. By the enterprise and courage of business men, new industries have been built and hundreds of new products distributed to the public. Their success is largely due to the use of modern merchandising methods, in which adver- Using played an important part by creat- ing demand for new products.
 From kitchen knives to steel rails, our material progress was built on founda- tion of steel In America, where standards of living are the highest in the world, we produce and consume more steel per capita than any other nation. And production is expanding rapidly. New types of steel are needed for new uses. In the manufacture of automobiles, for instance, 125 different kinds of steel are used.
 Along Wltn US urlVe TOT greater eIIl- ciency and lowered costs, steel has con- tinued to raise wages and to employ more men in producing the ever-growing vol ume. Wage rates and employment are now higher than ever before. As com pared with the prosperous year of 1929, steel wages today are more than 25 per cent higher and 100000 more workers are on the payrolls.
 Sometimes referred to as the prince of American industries, steel is probably more important to our welfare than any other manufactured product. Steel is truly one of the most useful servants of man. ng Federation of America.
The Waterbury Democrat., 1937-07-07

EzSNE ARE living in an age of steel. EN NM More than any other sub- HNkNA stance, steel is measure of M the standard of living of na- tions. The story of steel is the story of mans eternal effort to free himself from hard manual labor and to achieve physical comfort. From the crude implements of the stone age, primitive man struggled upward through the ages of bronze and iron. Civilization advanced as man learned to make tools of stronger and more dur able materials.
 Only a short seventy years ago man. kind entered upon new age, the age of steel. Hundreds of the most outstanding achievements of our civilization would have been impossible without steel. With this new material, tall skyscrapers have been reared into the air, bridges have , been flung across wide bodies of water, and stream-lined trains, automobiles, ships, and airplanes carry us by land, water, and air.
 Only with the help of steel has it been possible to harness all the principal forms of power-steam, electricity and gasoline. Modern travel would be impossi- ble without steel. Many of the discoveries and developments of science itself are possible only by the use of precision in- struments of steel.
 What would we have done without steel? No other substance known to man could take it's place. But even more im- portant than the discovery of steel is the ability to produce it at low cost. Economi- cal production became possible through a process invented by William Kelly, an

NEW YORK, Aug. 2O.-T h e
Boston Bees may not finish in
the first division this year but
their five-star pitching staff GER
tainly is making things miserable
for the clubs that do have a
chance to capture the National
League pennant.
Yesterday Jim Turner, a 81
year-old rookie from Indianapolis,
stopped the New York Giants
after they had won five straight
and were close to the league-lead-
ing Chicago Cubs. Yielding only
six hits, Turner won a 2-to-1 duel
from Harry Gumbert when a long
fly by Bobby Refs sent across the
winning marker in the eleventh
inning.
CUBS BEAT PIRATES
The Giants fell three games
behind the Cubs, who came out
of their slump to defeat Pitts
burgh Z to 3. Curt Davis was
the winning hurler.
The st. Louis Cardinals pro
jected themselves back into the
flag chase by defeating the Gin
cinnati Reds, 6 to 2 and 5 to !
in a twin bill.
Brooklyn climbed out Of the
cellar with q 3 to 0 win over
the PhillieS as the veteran Waite

out of his system, but the com.

of seventh place was too much
for the lowly Dodgers and they
promptly Topped back into last
place by losing the nightcap,
Z to 5.
TIGERS ROUT CHISOX
Detroit strengthened its hold on
second place by subduing the
third-place White SoX, IL TO 4, in
a game neld to six innings by
rain, Gerald Walker getting two
homers and a double and Rudy
York getting two homerS and a
single.
McNair's pinch homer with two
on Staked the Red Sox to a 5-to-4
triumph over the Athletics.
The Cleveland Indians fattened
their batting averages with a g.
toll landslide over the hapless St.
Louis Browns. Bruce Campbell
walloped a homer, triple and
double, and Earl Averill had a
perfect day at bat with two triples,
a double and single.
