STRATFORD, Va, October 13.-
The directorate Of the Robert E. Lee
Memorial Foundation convened today
for . full week Of meetings ut STRAIT
ford Hall, birthplace Of Gen. Lee.
Virginians gathered yesterday At
Stratford, founded by Thomas Lee, to
commemorate the 9th anniversary OF
the death Of the Confederate general.
Edwin o. Lewis Of Philadelphia,
chancellor general Of the Society Of
Colonial Wars, declared the greatest
weakness in the American form Of
government was the unwillingness of
leaders to put the good Of the country
before their own selfish interests.
Robert Bingham, United States Am
bassador to England, he said, was
among the notable exceptions to the
rule.
Earlier Mrs. Bingham, Of Louisville,
KY. wife OF the Ambassador, presented
red oak tree in honor OF the coro-
nation Of George VI and commemorate
ing the historic friendship between
Queen Caroline and Thomas Lee.
Viewing the political development
Of America, Lewis asserted that "one
hundred and fifty years Of democracy
does not as yet furnish me with proof
that the present form Of democratic
government will survive in America"
He termed "Charlatan" some types
of political Nominations In drawing
comparison between the service to
the colony Of Virginia rendered by
Thomas Lee. George Mason and
Thomas Nelson and leadership during
the past decade Of American history.
The exercises were jointly sponsored
by the Memorial Foundation and the
Society Of Colonial Wars.
A half-dozen speakers extolled
Thomas Lee as an outstanding example
Of the type OF public ofIicial needed
to perpetuate democracy in America.
The services were conducted under
the auspices Of the Robert E. Lee Me-
mortal Foundation and the General
Society Of Colonial Wars.
During the program the gates and
gatehouse at Stratford Hall and tab
lets memorializing Thomas Lee were
dedicated.
Col Francis H. Stoddard of New
York, governor general of the Society
OF Colonial Wars; DR.. Clifton M. Mil
Ter, governor Of the Society Of Colo
NAL Wars in Virginia; DR.. Alexander
G. Brown. Jr., of Richmond, surgeon
general Of the national organization,
and Adger Stewart, deputy secretary
OF the general society, made addresses.
Two similar tablets honoring
Thomas Lee were unveiled by Mrs.
Charles D. Lanier, president of the
r. E. Lee Memorial Foundation. One
was on the wall inside the gatehouse
and the other on the outer wall.

.BROADERPOWERS
FOR BISHOP URGED
Episcopal Deputies Get Plan
After Upper House Passes
Measure.
Ey the Associated Press.

CINCINNATI, October 13-Legis-
lation to broaden the powers of the
presiding bishop of the Protestant
Episcopal Church headed today to-
ward an uncertain fate in the House
Of Deputies in the church's triennial
general convention.
The deputies, traditionaNy more
conservative than the House of Bish-
ops, had just killed proposal to
liberalize the Episcopal canon on mar
riage and divorce, and the legislation
which would give the presiding bishop
administrative power came to that
body for concurrence after being ap-
proved by the bishops by a good
margin.
The presiding bishop, already the
church's spiritual leader, would be
made chief administrative officer by
election to the presidency of the Ma
tional Council, or board of directors
The bishops also voted to extend
his six-year term so it would expire
after he reached the age of 10; to
create two vice presidencies on the
council: to help relieve him of hi
diocesan responsibilities, and to take
steps toward establishing a see fol
him.
The measures faced strong senti-
ment in the House OF Deputies against
further centralization of church ad-
ministration, as well as much opposi-
ton to creating an Office which might
be similar to that of the Archbishop OF
Canterbury, primate of the parent
church of England.
No moves have been made to
change the presiding bishops title
One church leader said the title OF
archbishop" would be calamity"
Defeat Of joint commissions rec.
ommendation for liberalization of the
marriage and divorce law was a VIC
tory for a church element which be.
lieved such action would tend to en-
courage divorce.
The commission, after a nine-yeal
study, proposed that bishops be EN-.
powered to rule on whether a COM
municant divorced for any cause
should be permitted to remarry. The
present law permits remarriage only
for the innocent party in divorce
for adultery
The proposed change was showed
under after nearly four hours de.
bate. Only 211a lay delegation vote.
and 11% clerical delegation vote.
were cast for it. Against It were 81 u
clerical votes and 48 lay votes.

lies.
The cue for the new endeavors came
last night In President Roosevelt's s

The President declared the Govern

monopolies and financial oligarchies. +"
and can create billions of dollars in
new purchasing power among those
who today do not make enough to
maintain a decent standard of living
Earlier Bill Failed in House.
A wage-and-hour bill was proposed
by the administration in the last con-
gressional session, but failed to reach
. vote IN the House after passing the
Senate.
Although possible methods ot
strengthening the antitrust laws have
been under study by the Justice De.
partment, Mr.. Roosevelt's listing o1
this topic in the special session agenda
had not been generally anticipated.
The President said that regardles.

of the well-known masterpieces Of old,
or of the so-called moderns; to real
ize the sacrifices, the drama, the .ro-
nance behind many of the famous
paintings.
Under an arrangement with the
National Committee for Art Appre-
citation, he said, The Star will bring
five centuries of great art within the
price range of practically every per-
son in the metropolitan area.
Plan is Explained.
He explained the plan as follows:
THE National Committee, by use
Of a recently developed multi-color
printing process. has reproduced with
remarkable fidelity 48 great paintings
by artists representing every impor-
tant school of art from the italian
renaissance to the present. These
pictures were chosen by q committee
Of qualified art critics.
THE special process and mass pro-
duction methods have enabled the
committee to cut printing costs to
a minimum. BY enlisting The Star
and other large newspapers Of the
country in the movement, distribu-
ton has been simplified.
"As q result, the people of WASH
ington will have made available to
them reproductions Of masterpieces
seldom seen in the average home
works by Michelangelo, Raphael, IT,
tian and Da Vinci of the Italian re-
naissance; by Holbein, Ell Greco, Mu-
rillo, Velasquez. Rembrandt, Rubens,
Turner, Gainsborough, Corot, Millet-
in fact by noted painters of all the
great epochs in art, to the present
day.
Suitable for Framing.
"The reproductions-l1 by II inches
and suitable for framing-will be Is
sued in sets of four each week for II
weeks. With each set will go . PAM
phlet by DR.. Bernard Myers, art lee
turer at New York University, de-
scribing each of the pictures in de-
tail and telling something about the
artist who created it and the school
to which he belongs. The pamphlets
will be illustrated with other examples
Of the artists work.
"Dr. Myers, q well-known authority,
declares that the best way to develop
an appreciation Of art u to expose
