DR.. Robert e. Speer, 70, and just
retired from the Presbyterian Board
of Foreign Ministers, says he has
work planned for the next twenty
years. Evidently his retirement
does not mean idleness.
The Interracial Fellowship church
of Philadelphia, unique project in
promoting racial tolerance, opened
it's third year recently. The church
is sponsored by the Young Peoples
Interracial Fellowship, and is be-
lieved to be the only one of it's kind
in the United States. Services are
held monthly. 1t is supported by
the youth groups of twelve denom-
nations and a number of civic or
ganizations.
Beginning May 30th the popular
program known as "Your Gospel
Singer" will be heard over net
work of twenty-five stations Of the
Columbia Broadcasting System. The
feature will be heard daily Mondays
through Fridays at las to 2 p. M,
Eastern Daylight Time. The pro-
gram is made up or a renglOuS poem
and hymns of all denominations re-
quested by listeners, and through
out the ten years it has been on the
air it has enjoyed widestread pop
ularity.
Eleven sessions of the General
Assembly of the Presbyterian church
will be given to celebrate it's sesqui-
centennial, which will note the fact
that Presbyterianism in the United
States is 3O8 years old, and that as
formal organization, the Presby
terian church in the United States
of America is 232 years old, dating
from the establishment of the Gen
eral Presbytery, at Philadelphia, in

LONDON, Oct. 1 (I.N.s,).
In a sensational revolt against
the policies of Prime Minister
Neville Chamberlain, hailed
elsewhere in the world as re-
sponsible for the avoidance of
war, Sir Alfred Duff Cooper
resigned as First Lord of the
Admiralty today.
Chamberlain Immediately ac-
cepted the resignation, express
ing belief it would be a mistake
for Duff-Cooper to remain in
office in view of his disagree
ment with the governments
conduct of foreign affairs.
Distrusts Policy
In rendering his resignation,
Duff-Cooper followed in the
footsteps of his close personal
friend, Anthony Eden, who re-
signed as foreign secretary
months ago on the grounds he
could not condone "compro-
misses" with the dictators.
In his letter of resignation,
Duff Cooper said:
II profoundly distrust the
foreign policy which the pres
ent government is pursuing
and seems likely to pursue"
In reply, Chamberlain wrote: {:
knowing you are sincerely con-
vinced that the foreign policy of
the present government is a mis-
take, 1 agree with you in thinking
that it would not be proper for
you to remain a member Of the
government"
Duff -Cooper's resignation threw

Answer Given
Brown and Jesse Tapp, assistant
AAA administrator, gave their an
swer at a meeting with Senator
Smith CD, South Carolina, and
other Southern Senators, who had
asked an increase in the cotton
loans from base rate of 8.3 cents
a pound to 11.85 a pound.
"The department has considered
that Congress gave it discretionary
power in fixing loan rates." said
Brown. "The department has ex-
ercised discretion in what it
thought-and still does think-a
sound way" said Brown.
Warns Senator's
Brown and Tapp warned the
Southern Senators that a policy of
boosting the loan value on cotton
until it becomes price-fixing will
result in a complete revolution in
the farm program.
Tapp asserted if loans amount
to price-fixing the Government will
not only have to buy all cotton on
a price-fixing basis and sell it, or
the cotton growers will have to
accept smaller and smaller quotas.
High Loan Policy
1--WE can't follow the high loan
policy unless we are willing to
face the ultimate consequence of
having the Government buying
all cotton and selling it at ex-
port or on other markets"
The conference was held with
Brown and Tarp because PresidenU
Roosevelt declined to receive the
delegation yesterday.
