City Denies
Poultry Shop
Application

EAST DETROIT - The City
Councils hesitancy of recent
weeks in withholding a chicken
slaughterhouse permit to q De-
troit businessman was conclud-
ed abruptly at this weeks meet
ing when a protest petition sign
ed by 1877 property owners con-
fronted the solons.
The council voted unanimous
ly to refuse approval for the
slaughtering place which a De-
troiter, A. Buscemi. had pro-
posed to build.
Buscemi had claimed that his
application fully conformed to
provisions of the recently-enact-
ed Poultry Ordinance. No
evidence that the project did
did not conform was offered to
the council. An official spokes-
man said their action was based
solely on the sentiments of sur
rounding property owners, at
Gratiot near Chestnut, where
Buscemi had proposed to build.
Arriving at the council meet
ing shortly after the action had
been taken in support of the
peoples petition, the Detroiter
stated that he would proceed
with his $4,000. 40 by 60-foot
building. There will be no
slaughtering conducted at the
establishment, he told officials.
In support of his unsuccessful
plea for a slaughterhouse per-
NIT, Buscemi produced a letter
from the Detroit Department of
Health indicating that his record
as a slaughterer and a butcher
was a good one and he had not
been subjected to citation for
violations.

Georgetown, DR.. Draper is still on
call to teach at Congress Street
Methodist Church.
He began teaching at the Dunn
barton Church youth class in 1880
His son, now Sergt. Richard T.
Draper, U. S. A., stationed at Camp
Gordon. Ga. and several nephews
were members OF the class and DR.
Draper was asked to take the group
over. He did so and has since taught
in several churches as guest teacher
Teaching adult and youth classes
require different approaches, DR.
Draper said in an interview. The
older group tend to get more from
the lecture method, with occasional
questions to keep members on their
toes. Young men derive the most
from the class when they are in
duced to talk, he stated.
The District school official pre-
pares his lessons by studying the
Bible itself. He reads a great deal
on the background and supplemental
aspects pertaining to the material.
DIR. Draper retires in June after

Awaited by Presbyterians
By the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
MONTREAL, N. c., May 28.-The
85th general assembly of the Pres
byterian Church in the United
States (Southern) awaited today a
report of committee on a proposal
to place certain restrictions on
inter-faith marriages where men,
bers of the Presbyterian Church are
parties to such unions.
The proposal is an overture of the
Macon (Ga) Presbytery and was
referred last week to the Committee
on Bills and Overtures.
1t would require that in the case
of Presbyterians marrying nom
Protestants, and specifically Roman
Catholics, the non-Protestant or
Catholic party to the marriage -
would be required to agree that "all
children of either sex, born to this
marriage, shall be baptized and edu-
Gated in the faith and according to
the teachings of the Presbyterian
Church."
Numerous other reports were also
slated for consideration today.
The assembly heard messages
Sunday emphasizing the Importance
of Christian education and the need
of the church for $250,000 in extra
gifts this year to provide for emer-
gency conditions in industry and
camps arising out of the war.
