    Bishops Favor
Further Power
for Provinces
-■
Bishop Beecher Protests Epis
copal Resolution: Woman’s
Auxiliaries Hear
Reports.
A resolution to increase the powers
of the province was introduced Mon
day eftern<jnn by Bishop G. ft. Ben
nett of Duluth at the sixth provincial
synod of the Kpiscopnlinn church,
meeting at Trinity catedral.
The motion evidently met with the
favor of all the bishops with the ex
eeption of Bishop G. A. Beecher of
western Nebraska. hTe Nebraska
bishop assailed the resolution as "rad
ical and reactionary." lie plendad
with his 'brothers to be guided by
precedent.
Bishop Bennett's resolution provid
ed that If the provincial synod np
proved and endorsed the suggestion
of the provincial councils on enlarge
ment of powers, that the president of
♦ he provincial synod, Bishop Harry
I.ongley, place six suggestions before
the general council of the church at
its convention at New Orleans In 1925.
Vote op Six Suggestions.
The suggestions were voted upon
separately. There was one dissenting
vote to the suggestion of the desir
ability of larger provincial initiative
in church extension. Discussion any
voting upon the second provision that
the distinction between diocese and
district of the province be obliterated
was postponed .until Tuesday.
• Several clergymen objected to the
restoration of the canon giving the
province the right to receive appor
tionments in hulk and to distribute
them among themselves.
The suggestion that the provinces
be authorized to nominate tn the
, house of bishops the name or names
of candidates was passed. The reliev
ing of the congestion of the general
council by the committal to the synod
sons of the legislative duties was
favored unanimously.
The sixth suggestion also was
passed. It read: “In all national
commissions organized on a provincial
basis, the provincial representative
should be appointed by the province."

School Closing
“Shameful.”
‘'('losing of the Bellevue Vooatlonnl
school is shameful.” declared Frank
J. Irwin, commander of the Dtssbled
American Veterans o' the "World "War,
while visiting In Omaha Monday.
"The rehabilitation board of too
veterans fought the closing order, and
kept the school open fur a year after
the bureau had announced that it,
would tie closed.” he said, “but "it
seems that they hate put on» over
on ua this time.”
Irwin predicted that more than 11.
000 veterans will attend the conven
tion to be held here In July, 19Jfi.
“Friction which developed when
Omaha first sought the American
I.egion convention has disappeared,
he asserted.
“The dates of the two convention"
do not conflict, and I expect tic
disabled veterans to pa-# all records
for attendance at a national conv< -
tion.”
