M. P. CHURCH BODY
. DISOWNS REPORT
Had No Part in Recent Dry
Survey, Committee An
nounces.
The Federal Council of Churches’
recent report on prphibition has
brought about disavowal by the ex
ecutive committee of the Methodist
Protestant Church of any responsi
bility for the document.
In a statement issued last night
the committee declared the articles
by the federal council had been the
occasion “for enemies of prohibition
to boast that now at last even the
churches themselves had been forced
to admit that prohibition is a fail
ure.’’
Denies Report Authorized.
The statement further protested
“against the assumption printed on
the pamphlet that it has been pre
pared and published under the au
*• thority of the Federal Council of
Churches of Christ in America.
“Whether the conclusions and state
ments of that pamphlet are true or
false,” if continued, "this committee
does not feel it necessary to pass
judgment. But eve desire to make this
clear, that while the Methodist Prot
estant Church has been in affiliation
with the federal council from the be
ginning, and is still making a small
contribution to its annual budget, it
has never authorized the council as a
whole, or any officer, department or
of that council, to speak
authoritatively for it on any question
of religion, morals or politics.”
Asks Title Defined.
The church’s attitude differed wide
ly from statements made in the ar
ticles, it said, and suggesffcd that the
time has come for the churches to de
termine the meaning to be included in
the title of “Federated Churches of
Christ in America.”
"Protestantism,” it concluded, “is
not inclined to an oligarchy, even of
wise and pious men, and the present
tendency of the council would seem
to require a new definition of its
title.”
LIQUOR OWNER CONVICTED

Searched Illegally.
Morris Cohn, indicted a year ago
for unlawful possession of liquor, was
convicted yesterday by a jury before
Justice Bailey in Criminal Division 1.
It was the first liquor case tried at

ernment showed that Policeman Vic
tor P. Kew of the Tenth Precinct, ar
rested Cohn October 29, 1923, and

torney Harry Whalen, representing
the accused, objected that Cohn's car
was unlawfully searched and the
court indicated he would like to hear
at length on this subject upon appli
cation for a new trial. Cohn was re
leased on bond to await sentence.

Turkish Men Must Give Street Car
Seats to Women Under Company Rule
By the Associated Press.
CONSTANTINOPLE, October 15.
Women's rights in Turkey do not yet
include the ballot, but they do include
reserved seats In trolley cars and
ferry boats. The tired business women
of the Occident may well envy the
women of Turkey for whom a cer
tain number of places are reserved by
regulations just announced by the
transportation companies.
Formerly red curtains inclosed the
first two rows in the trolley cars and
women were required to sit in the
secluded section, called the “harem.”
No man, except the conductor, was
allowed on the harem side of the red
SCOPES’ COUNSEL FILES
‘EXPLANATION’ OF APPEAL
Says State’s Attorney Changed
Time Limit From 30 to 60 Days
on Bill of Exceptions.
By the Associated Press.
KNOXVILLE. Tetin.. October 13. —
A copy of Dr. John Randolph Neal's
answer to Attorney General Frank
M. Thompson’s motion to quash the
bill of exceptions filed in the State
Supreme Court in the appeal of John
T. Scopes, who was convicted of vio
lating the anti-evolution act. was yes
terday forwarded to Chief Justice
Grafton Green of Lebanon. It is
liossible that a decision will be handed
down here Saturday by the Supreme
Court.
The answer was filed with the
Supreme Court clerk by I)r. Neal.
In it Dr. Neal states that Attorney
General A. T. Stewart, prosecutor at
Dayton in the Scopes‘trial had changed
the .memorandum on the bill of ex
ceptions from 30 t<> 60 days as the
time in which the bill could be filed.
Gen, Thompson had charged that the
bill was not filed within 30 days and
therefore was not within the time
limitations set.
Dr. Neal yesterday said that he was
not making any charges agaipst Gen.
Stewart, but merely “an explana
tion.” ’

VIRGINIA METHODISTS
VOTE TODAY ON UNITY
No Debate Will Be Allowed as Op
posing Sides Clash, With Oppo
nents Apparently Stronger.
Special Dispatch to The Star.
RICHMOND. Va., October 14.—Fol
lowing a two-hour discussion yester
day the Virginia Methodist Confer
ence adopted a resolution calling for
a vote without debate at 11 o'clock
today on the question of unifying the
Northern and Southern Methodist
Churches.
Bishop Warren A. Candler of
Georgia, presiding, counseled the del
egates to moderation in their discus
sion of the resolution, but the scene
was extraordinary for Its excitement
and confusion.
Proponents of the unification plan
favored letting down the bars to dis
cussion, while the opponents argued
that the grounds had been covered
at previous meetings and nothing
could be gained l>y discussion. The
vote on the resolution stood 170 to
143. It gave no indication of the
possible results at the final balloting,
but there is said to be a strong ma
jority against unification.
