NORRIS PREDICTION
Senator Says President Can
Win if He Doesn’t Swing
to Right.
Mr the Associated Press.
Senator Norris, discussing the po
litical situation from the vantage
point of an "in-betweener," said today
he thinks President Roosevelt will be
renominated next year and that there
will be no third party.
The Nebraska Republican Inde
pendent, who supported SiAith in 1928
and Roosevelt in 1932. said the Presi
dent does not
have a “cinch."
but that he will
be re-elected “if
he doesn't swing
to the right."
Looking over
the field of pos
sible Republican
candidates, Nor
ris said in an in
terview that he
saw no one now
that would win
his support, but
he said he had
no idea w ho Senator Norris.
would be nomi
nated by the party.
Nomination of former President
Hoover. Norris said, would mean the
re-election of President Roosevelt.
The Nebraskan's views on the po
litical outlook were obtained in re
sponse to specific questions. He was
obviously not very interested in the
political situation? his conversation
turning constantly to the great dust
storms in the West and the damage
thev had done.
Asked about the possibility of a
third party movement, he said:
“I don’t’ think there will be a third
party. When both parties go wrong
and both nominate men obnoxious to
the people, then there's a chance for
a third pai ty to get in. But it doesn’t
often happen.
“As to what the parties are going
to do next year, nobody knows. If
thoroughly reactionary men are nom
inated in each party, there might be
a chance lor a third party.”

Chinese Church for City
Establishment Result of Criticism
by Dr. Chan.
WASHINGTON soon will have
Its first Chinese church.
Plans are now under
way by a board composed
of representatives of sev
eral of the Protestant churches of
the District, together with representa
tive Chinese, for the establishment of
the church here, to be known as the
Chinese Community Church of Wash
ington, D. C.
The institution of this church
came about through criticism by Dr.
Pak Chu Chan, a graduate of the
George Washington University School
of Medicine in the class of 1925. Dr.
Chan, who has his own private hos
pital in China, is now taking a post
graduate course in surgery at the
school. In an address recently before
a ministerial association, he admon
ished the clergy for the lack of church
facilities here for Chinese. Dr. Chan
declared churches in the United States
have sent hundreds of missionaries
to China and spent millions of dol
lars there in an effort to convert
Chinese, but have left them largely
to their own religious, resources in
this country. I
Churches in Other Cities.
It was pionted out that the Chinese
residents of the National Capital do
not have a church of their own, al- j
though in New York, San Francisco, j
Detroit, Chicago and several other
cities there are churches. An investi
gation disclosed there are approxi
mately 800 Chinese in Washington,
among them between 70 and 80 fam
j ilies. Some of them have lived here
more than 50 years and have never
been inside of a church.
In several of the churches Sunday
school classes have been established
for Chinese, but these are not in the
sense of what is generally known as
a Sunday school class.
According to Rev. Eddy L. Ford, as
sistant pastor and director of religious
DR. PAK CHU CHAN.
education of Foundry Methodist Epis
copal Church, who is chairman of the
board in charge of the establishment
of the Chinese church, the principal
use of these classes are by young
Chinese seeking to learn the English
language.
Mr. Ford explained that in most of
the churches where these classes have
been established, one teacher is re
quired for each scholar, and although
to some extent the young Chinese, who
are generally those attending schools
or colleges here, receive some knowl
edge of religion, for the most part they
are contented with receiving Instruc
tions In English.
Various Church Classes.
There are Chinese classes estab
lished in Calvary Baptist Church,
Church of the Brethren and Church
of the Ascension, according to Mr.
Ford, with an average attendance
of 50.
It Is planned. Mr. Ford said, to have
a church structure along the lines of
the Y. M. C. A. There will be dormi
tories. class rooms and library facili
ties. It Is also planned to affiliate the
local church with the Church of
Christ In China, which is a union
church.
As the majority of the Chinese in
the District of Columbia are from the
Canton section of China, It Is planned
to have a Chinese preacher who speaks
that dialect. Already negotiations
have been made with a man In the
Middle West, who Is now conducting a
Chinese church, with the Idea of hav
ing him come here to preside over the
local church.
According to Mr. Ford. $3,500 will be
needed for the establishment of the
local church, and with more than half
of that sum already subscribed, he
expects the church to open within a
short time, although as yet the loca
tion of the church has not been defi
nitely decided. At present a building
in the 300 block of M street Is under
consideration.
A board of directors of 34 members
has been constituted. There are 25
representing Christian organizations
and nine Chinese. Officers of the
board are Rev. Eddy L. Ford of Foun
dry M. E. Church, chairman; C. S.
Lae, a Chinese student at George
Washington University, vice chairman;
Mrs. Grace B. Holaopple, secretary,
and Elliott Thompson, treasurer.

PASTOR SMOKER CALLED
SELF-CONFESSED LIAR
Bishop Edwin H. Hughes Says
Use of Tobacco Violates
Church Obligation.
Br the Associated Press.
SEAFORD, Del., March 29 —The
cigar-smoking Methodist Episcopal
minister, violating his church’s obli
gation against use of tobacco, was
described yesterday by Bishop Edwin
H. Hughes of Washington as a “self
confessed liar.”
The statement was made In reply
to questions of Rev. George A. Cooke
of Wilmington in a public inquiry at
She annual Wilmington M. E. con
ference.
“If I felt that I could not live up
to my obligation as minister,” the
bishop said. “I would hand in my
credentials and atop preaching.
"I would not walk up and down the
, i. '
streets a self-confessed liar by puffin*
a cigar. If I could not keep my obli
gation, I would have personal Integ
rity enough to walk out.”
Tlie conference, Bishop Hughes said,
has the “right to bring charges”
against any member If he “violates
his obligation not to use tobacco."
“Many ministers complain they are
not getting results In their works,”
Bishop Hughes added. “How can you
expect God to bless a liar?”
