tions continue to center on the third
term question. Senator Murray,
Democrat, of Montana told reporters
today he still was firm in his belief
that Mr.. Roosevelt should run again

sentiment for third term was de-
veloping into a Nation wide draft
Roosevelt movement.
Senator Byrnes, Democrat, of
South Carolina predicted yesterday
at Spartanburg, S. c., that the
President would not seek reelection
He added that if the division be-
tween Democrats in the last session

Soda|ity Activities
Are Described al
Catholic Session
Father Lyons Stresses
Prime Importance Of
Religious Work

The work of the church is to
teach people to be good Catholics,
the general session of the ninth
Summer School of Catholic Action,
meeting in the Mayfiower Hotel, was
told today. The individual should
be educated as Christ outlined, said
Father j r. Lyons, S. j., in a dis
cussion of Sodality activities. "We
should inspire the Sodality to go
forth to help others he added.
In pointing out that religious &C
tivity was of prime importance in
Sodality work. he said social and
recreational work should be used to
give balanced activity.
He pointed out also that sound
training of Sodality officers was a
good foundation on which to build
Catholic organization. He explained
that the method of Sodality is edu-
cational and it is a slow process
which calls for constant repitition.
Through Sodality education, the
home. school and parish would be
the beneflciaries, he said.
Father Edward Bowling, S. j., of
st. Louis, late yesterday said the
American Government is an "elec-
tive monarchy" He said this form
contains some democratic elements,
but a more perfect democracy may
be made through the Nation s
schools.
Student government is the in
sulated laboratory for developing
the new tools of democracy he
said. THE most scientific form of
voting in use today E. . is the prod
uct of row over student govern
ment in school at Kidderminster,
England. 125 years ago."
The Jesuit priest was talking to
a small group of students from
Richmond, Va, who omitted their
regular class to have a private chat

Divine May Buy Second
Heaven Near Rooseye|ts
By the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press
NEW YORK, Aug. 16.-"Angels"
of Father Divine's Harlem cult are
seeking to establish their second
rural heaven" near President Roose-
velt's Hyde Park home-this time on
the palatial 700-acre Frederick Will
liam Vanderbilt estate.
John Lamb, white secretary of the
colored evangelist, said negotiations
are under way for purchase of the
mansion and lands where Wander
bilt, railroad director and flnancier,
dwelt in baronial comfort until his
death June 20, 1898.
Mr.. Lamb said President Roosevelt,
in answer to a letter from Father
Divine asking if he would disapprove
the purchase, replied he had no OBJ
jections to the addition of another
cult heaven" near his Hyde Park
property.
In the last year, Father Divine's
followers have completed an "exten-
sion heaven" directly across the
Hudson River on the rolling 50O-acre
AAA oAAA IiDOW CSOdlC UIlCy
from Rowland Spencer, anti-New
Dealer.
Mr.. Lamb said the President point
ed out in his letter any one has the
right to purchase property in this
country, and he had hoped the VAN
derbilt estate would be bought by
some one who would take care of it.
Father Divine yesterday said he
wished ito receive distinguished
guests and also foreign diplomats
and other representatives of the
world of affairs, as we hope to bring
about closer relationship between
the nations by negotiation"
c. T. S. Keep, president of Pre-
views, Inc, representing the VAN
derbilt estate, said no negotiations
have been carried on With Father
Divine
