The closing day of the conference,
Monday, will find every minute crowd
ed from the 9 o'clock roll call until
adjournment in the late afternoon
The stationing committees report will
be the final business of the session.
Quite a number of matters coming
before the conference make this more
than an ordinary sessiio = In the
matter of the Presidential election
there is much discussion. The runner
up in the election of five years ago
has a close second in a very intimate
friend in the person of a former col
lege and Seminary class-mate Each
of these ministers have a large fol-
lowing, and no one can guess as to
their strength until the final ballot
on Thursday afternoon. Many mem
bers of the Conference believe the
vote will lie as close as it was five
years ago. The vote was too close for
either candidate to be comfortable
during the counting of ballots.
Another important matter is the
question of changes. Evidences point
to great moving about this year.
Several pastors have resigned and
re-entered the Seminary, another has
resigned during the year and left the
Conference, and there is always the
possible retirement of some of the
older members. Then if in the cam
paign naturally arising out of THE
Fellowship Crusade" one of the min
listers is put in the field for this work,
this will also add to the necessity of
moving men to make replacements

Criticism OF the gross receipts busi-

ground OF inequity was one Of the
chief developments in the local AK
situation yesterday, as Chairman King
Of the Senate District Committee gave
definite assurance hearings will be
held on the seven-point revenue meas
ure passed by the House.
At the same time sentiment CON-
tinued to grow among Senate COM
mittee members for restoration Of the
clause enabling the city 10 obtain
Treasury advances pending collection
OF local taxes to avoid possible

year. Advances would be returned
as the collections are made.
Voicing q desire to work out bill
that would conform as nearly Us pos
sible to the preferences Of the COM
munity and its municipal officials as
to how the needed revenue should be
raised, Senator King said he would
start hearings as soon as the Com
missioners have had time to analyze
the bill as amended on the House
floor and to formulate Recommended
tions.
Hearings May Start Wednesday.
The hearings probably will not start

they will last about three days. The

GERMANY DEGREES
NEW FARM POLICY.
Pooling of Small Tracts Into
Collective Enterprises
Ordered.
By the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
BERLIN, June l9.-The German
Government tonight ordered a sweep
ing redistribution OF agricultural lands
by pooling large numbers of small
farms into collective enterprises.
A 2O-page decree, effective next
January l, provides that each partici-
pant shall hold rights corresponding
to the amout Of land contributed.
The basic idea of the new ruling
is to increase efficiency in agricultural
production
Unlike the Communist collective
farming system, the new Nazi develop
ment will not simply transform many
peasant holdings into one big farm.
To Re-distribute Land.
It will redistribute land within a
community so as to heighten efficiency
of each individually operated plot as
we'll as promoting community owner
ship and operation of such land as
can efficiently be worked in common.
Under the existing system. some
peasants are compelled to divide their
time between several small tracts
situated miles apart
The first effect Of collective re-
distribution would be to give each
farmer all his land in one piece
Possibility OF extensive litigation
arising out OF the redistribution was
ruled out by the government by max
ing the minister Of agriculture the
final arbiter in all disputes.
Roland Freisler, state secretary Of
the German ministry of justice, de-
scribed new laws affecting the status
of the farmer as not merely "a re-
vision Of laws affecting agricultural
property rights. or . MODIFICATION Of
inheritance rights to agricultural
land" but the establishment of an
entirely new status for the farmer as
member Of the national community.
Relationship 70 Soil.
Every German farmer now knows
that his relationship to the soil he tills
Is functional relationship, not simply
matter Of title.
His function Is to make the land
produce what the nation needs, and
II constituted authorities ind he Is
inexcusably delinquent in fulfilling
this function, no legal title can save
him from being t11wn of the land to
make room for Sbme one who will
ur0duce.
