tempted to establish how much of a
part women are to be given in ecclesi
astical government. A decision was
finally reached to allow the presby
teries to take a referendum vote on
the question of allowing women to be
installed as deacons, t A report on
the vote will be made at tne next
assembly,
, . The proposal brought a protest
from Rev. Abraham Lathcm of Ches
ter, Pa. He quoted from the book
of Acts in which he said the l.
apostles, in calling for the appoint
mcnt of deacons, gave this injunc
tion to the disciples:
"Look ye out therefore, brethren.
seven men of good report, full
of the spirit and of wisdom whom
you may appoint over thia business,
"We have this for our guide,
brethren,' he declared, and I be
lieve that we should stick pretty
close to the good book. ,
Immediately there were counter
quotations from a commissioner,
who found his inspiration in the
book of Romans. He quoted:
"Unto you, Phoebe, our sister, who
is a deaconc"ss of the church that
is at Cenchrea, that ye receive her
in the Lord, worthily of the saints
and that ye assist her in whotsoever
matter she may have need of you."
The assembly completed consider
ation of all reports of committees.
One of the last reports considered
was that of the board of foreign
missions.
Resolutions were passed asking
the United States government Mo
find ways to prevent transfer of
. liquor from this country to non
Christian lands.

Big Hit With Tourists

plant, creamery, Lutheran seminary
and a $40,000 garage, accommodat
ing 300 cars were pointed out to the
Omaha business men'by B. M. Hilde
brand, president of the Seward
Chamber of Commerce. This organ
ization is a great community force
with unusually large club rooms. j
Big City Park.
Most remarkable of all the rccep-
tion facilities of this town. Adjoining
the county fair grounds is an amuse
men park erected on land owned by
the city but leased to public-spirited
citizens who have supplied the funds
for a concrete tennis court, golf
course, swimming ' pool, pavilion,
, children's playground and picnic
' grounds, as well as a tourist camp
ing place. Band concerts are given
every Saturday and as the town is on
both the D. L. D. Trail and the
Pershing Highway, crowds of pic
nickers come down from Lincoln to
enjov themselves. A fund of about
$5,0013 is raised each year to entertain
the farmers, and a rest room is main
tained in the court house for the
wives and children of tural visitors.
Swimming pools and tourist camp
ing grounds are found in many Ne
braska towns such as Fall City, Su
perior and York. At the latter place
free gas for cooking and electric
lights are provided for motorists
camping outdoors. , The most re
markable swimming pool in Nebraska
is one about three blocks long and
.five feet deep in Beaver Crossing.
This is filled by four artesian wells
and is used for boating as well. TIi.
town lies in an artesian basin and
each home has its well, some of
them with pressure enough to fill
bathtubs on the second floor,
Tourists Have Swim,
One of the most enjoyable events
of the day, was the swimming party
arranged for the Omaha tourists at
the beach in Fairmont. One of
the difficulties of the tour' has been
to arrange for baths. At one of the
stops yesterday, John J. Meacham,
Charles Weir and J. 12. Kelsey, went
to a small hottl and hired a room
with bath for half an' hour. The
bathroom was found to be installed
in a remodeled clothes closet, and
the tub was not more than three
feet long at the base. Kelsey and
Weir managed without difficulty to
perform their ablutions, although
Kelsey, who is one of the fat men
of the execursion overflowed the
tub. But when Meacham, who is
over six feet tall, entered, his knees
touched his eyebrows.
One of the most interesting stops
was at Crete, the ' home of J. G.
Adams, one of the trade tourists,
who is connected with the creamery
there. Seven million pounds of
butter are manufactured, 200 cars of
eggs and- 2,000,000 pounds of poultry
shipped by this company. . .
Richardson, manager of -the flour
mill at Crete, showed off his plant,
which is grinding out 2,000 barrels
of flour a day. Doane college is
also situated in this town.
Crop Conditions Good.
George A. Williams; representative
leader in the legislature, meet the
train at Fairmont and reported
business and crop conditions good.
Wheat is better the farther north
one goes, although there are no
prospects of a big crop. H. E.
Dickerson, general superintendent of
the Northwestern railways, reported
an increased volume of grain traffic.
His line south of he Platte received
138 cars of grain today, and has
orders for 123 cars for tomorrow.
Most of this he said was corn. The
movement is helping business and is
attributed to the higher prices of
the last few days.
Ak-Sar-Ben is being advertised
on the trip by A. H. Frye, who has
found a good deal of interest in the
running races next month and who
has signed tip every man. on the
train as a member or the order.

JLiving Uncomfortable For
Debaters Touring Stat
tTownley and Langer Differ Widely in Personal Ap-
vj pearance and Methods
Number of Meetings to Be Fixed'
j By Nonpartisan Leader.
By PERCY POWELL,
Beatrice, Neb., May 26. (Special.)
Nebraska dust, r-ord cars and
more or less indifferent hotel food
are the price one must pay for en
joying the excitement of the series
of Townley-Langer Nonpartisan
league debates in Nebraska.
Except when eating or debating,
the Townley and Langer parties are
on the road continually. They have
covered more than 2,000 miles in
Ford cars since the debates opened
in Kansas. They have hundreds to
cover in Nebraska on their tiymg
trip from one end of the state to
another. They never stay in a town
in which a debate is held more than
two or three hours after the tent is
packed.
Tlje Langer party arrived 'n
Beatrice at 1 o'clock this morning
with the tire off one wheel of the
Ford. The Townley party arrived a
few hours in advance.
Sleep in Same Hotel.
In Beatrice they slept in the same
hotel for the first time during the
trip, due to crowded conditions of
hostelries in the Gage county metro
polis. Townley, however, did not
register and occupied a room rented
by one of his cartv. This is a
a Townley habit, so they , say 1n
Beatrice, to come in and out of
town without ever putting his name
on a hotel blotter.

he told his audience. "Put that in

Langer repeated a series of Ques
tions, which, he declared. Town lev
had declined to answer so far in the
Kansas and Nebraska debates.

you can re-elect yourselves time

farmers who pay the freight abso
lutely have no power to unseat you?
. Tells of Handicaps.
"Name one Nonpartisan league
manager in any state which you are
working that has not been or isn't
a socialist.
Continuing. Langer said: "It
isn't easy to face audiences like this
who are friendly to the other side
to have a man of Townley's type
can me a liar and a rascal.
"You don't like me now. But
some tirne you will believe I am
your best friend and will say that I
uttered a fair warning to you.
"But someone must expose a fel
low like this. Someone must follow
him to the people he talks to and
works among and tell what he
really is and for the time being it
is an unpleasant task.
Tomorrow the debate will be at
York in a tent.
New Auto Lens Laws to
Go Into Effect July 25
It's just one law after another for
motorists in Nebraska, according to
T. L. Haskin, secretary of the Oma
ha Automobile club, who yesterday
called attention ot Umaha motorists
to the new lens law passed by the
last state legislature, effective July
25. . ' - - . ...
This law authorizes the state de
partment of public works to define
lawful lenses, require their use on
all motor vehicles and prohibit the
sale in this state of all motor
vehicles not equipped with the lenses.
Specifications compiled by the
state of Connecticut were adopted
following a meeting of lens makers,
automobile club representatives and
other interested motorists, limiting
the candle power of any bulb to 24.
Manufacturers will be required to
present , a certified copy of the re
sults of laboratory tests of their
product before state approval to
their sale can be granted. As soon
as a list of lenses, legal in Nebraska,
is , available, copies can be secured
from the Omaha Automobile club.

debating methods. Langer is a typi

Townley when he finally accepted
Langer's challenge to debate took
the naming of the towns where the
debates should be staged and the ad

takes care to do the advertising of
the meetings over the rural telephone
lines and among friends and does
little in the towns

So far as the negotiations which are

as to the payment ot interest Mr.
Mellon denied reports that there is
any intention of permitting all in

15 years. . ;
Await Action of Congress.
The administration . has no inten
tion of presenting any general re
funding . clans involving victory
notes, liberty bonds or certificates of
indebtedness to congress during the
present session. Any arrangement
relative to the transfer of allied
obligations from the United States
government to - American investors
would await action by congress on
the refunding which will be neces
sary prior to May, Wis, when the
victory notes mature.
When the -refunding operation
takes olace it is expected that the
floating debt remaining at that time
will be absorbed in long term bonds.
In connection with the whole re
funding operation, it would be pro
per to consider schemes lor trans
American investors, thus reducing by
that amount, the outstanding public
debt of the United States.
The $10,000,000,000 of allied obli
cations, if transferred to American
investors, would absorb the present
floating debt of more than S.oUU,

the third liberty loan, totalling at
present more than $3,600,000,000
which matures in 1928.

Germans Denied
Right to Retain
Anti-Tank Rifles
Weapons Not Mentioned in
Clause Specifying Arms
Permitted Under Terms
. Of Peace Treaty.
By. HENRY WALES.
Chicago Tribune Cable. Copyright, 1821.
Paris, Mav 26. The council of
ambassadors this morning denied the
German government's - request to
maintain or to manufacture anti
tank rifles.
The Germans sent a note to the
allies protesting against being forced
to surrender their anti-tank weapons
on the ground that they were not
specifically mentioned in the dis
armament clauses of the treaty and
therefore were not included in the
material ordered destroyed.
The ambassadors adopted the ad
vice of the military experts who
showed them a table incorporated
into the treaty specifying what arms
Germany would be permitted to re
tain. The table did not include anti
tank rifles and therefore it was ruled
that all arms not mentioned must be
destroyed.
Germany's efforts to retain the
right to keep and manufacture anti
tank rifles is regarded as being high
ly significant in military quarters
because the rifles had just been
brought to a point of efficiency and
were being produced in quantity
When the armistice came before the
end of the war a few had appeared
at the front where they executed
deadly havoc among the tanks.
A number of French, British and
American generals in the fighting at
the end of the war believed that the
tanks would have lost all their
efficiency as soon as the Germans
completed training anti-tank sharp
shooters, as the German weapon,
which could be carried by jone man,
discharged a bullet penetrating the
steel plates of the tank which ex
ploded on the inside, killing the
operators and wrecking the tank.
