THE OGDEN STANDARD-EXAMINER. FRIDAY, MAY 14, 1920. 9 '
I Has Spent Eight Years in the
Country and Reviews
Conditions.
DES MOINES, la., May 14. Bishop
McConncll has had charge of the work
of tho church In Mexico for tho past
eight years and recently returned from
a trip through that country. He de
clared that the revolution carried I
through by Carranza and Obregon has
been successful In the senBo that 'it
established tho main principles for
which it was started, and conditions
had improved in Mexican in the four
years just past.
No Cause for Intervention.
Bishop McConnell said that in his
opinion no sufficient cause for Intor
... f vention by the United States In Mcx-
I Jco has ever yet appeared. "If Am-
I oricans have been abused in Mexico,
I Mexicans have been abused in tho
! ' United States," he asserted,
rf ; If intervention comes, It will bring
It! to Mexico nothing but physical bene-
k. fit better roads, bettor sanitation,
i, better school buildings. But the abyss
Bj between tho Anglo-Saxon and the Lat-
in minu win De ueepenea, lunner ui
fort at Christian advance will be han
dicapped, suspicion of the United
;: States will extend to the tip of Cape
Horn, and a legacy of hatred of the
United btales will be bequeathed to
Mexico, In Bishop McConnell's opin
ion. r
w . He reported that on his last trip to
fiIiikp Mexico he found just twice as many
' missionaries in the field as when he
r. first visited the field, and that byco-
' ' operative agreement among the va
rious denominations at work in Mex
ico, a scheme of division of territory
has been devised, and is being strict
ly adhered to, so that there Is no du
plication of Christian work.
Bishop's Plan for Future.
Bishop McConnell's plan for the fu
ture is to help Mexico help herself,
and to encourage Mexicans to work
out their problems in their own way,
with self-support on tho increase. Ho
stated that it is his hope that the time
will soon come when, if advisable, all
tho American missionaries can go to
some other field, and allow Mexico to
work as a self-sufficing unit.
Works Way Home as Stoker.
Bishop Frank "Warne, of Lucknow,
India, who was forceu to work his way
as a stoker aboard ship in order to
rcich Des Moines in time for the gen
eral conference, stated that there have
been more revolutionary changes in
India in the past iour years than in
several previous generations. Home
' rule is making great differences in
tho social conditions. The move to
jgbsL. -abolish alcohol, which is participated
in by Mohammedans, Hindus and
Christians, is sure of success. ' The
. American mission, which has entered
' a new field, in tho giving of agricul
jj tural instruction, is making rapid
strides. The movement toward Chris
Wm tianlty among the people of India cou-
BM tlnues to be the greatest evangelistic
I movement in the world s history.
Refining Oil in Mesopotamia.
Bishop Warne came by way of Mes
opotamia, where he states that they
are refining a million gallons of oil
i per day, and can go on at that rate for1
, a thousand years.
A determined effort has beon made
: j at this conference to consolidate some
of tho Christian advocates, which are
. tho official organs of the church, and
1 -j of which there are now eight, pub-
r'j Hshed in different sections of tho
v,. . "United States. However, after conaid
, erable debate and deliberation, the
l ' commltteo on book concerns has de-
!& ' termlned to rccommena to tho general
B conference that all of these weekly
JP papers be continued during the ensu-
MjL Ing quadrennium. All are oporating at
ml a loss, which is absorbed by the Meth-
odist book concern.
fmrT Report of the committee of Episco-
'M ' pacy, recommending election of four-
Si , teen bishops, and establishing sev(en
am' new Episcopal residences. was present-
K od to the conference today. Action
was deferred until tomorrow.

Against "No Treaty" Plan of
Johnson and "No Reserva- t
tionr' Stand of Wilson
.NEW YORK, May 14. Herbert ti
Hoover, replying by telegraph today g
to the request of the Hoover Repub- V
llcan club of Portland, Ore., for his
"views on various matters arising in jt
the Oregon primaries," declared tho !i
Republican party, "must support the j
league with reservations. It must
hot fall Into the trap that tho prcsl-
dent and Senator Johnson are entlc- '
Ing it into."
"The president has declared." Mr. ?,
Hoover said, "that tho Democratic
party must demand the acceptance
of the league In full as presented by j,
him to the senate. Senator Johnson g
demands that the Republican party jp
oppose tho league altogether. Two
more destructive attitudes towards a n
great issue could not be found. S
Emergency Created f
"An emergency Is created by this 3
alliance of destruction. The asplra- 5
tions of t he great majority of our j
poople will be thwarted by either of
these extremes. This majority is
fixed in its determination that the
United States, both for our own pro- I
tection and in the' interest of the $
wolfaro of the world, shall join the 'a
league by ratifying tho treaty, which
provides for substitution of methods v
of peaco for methods of war, but that
wo shall do so only under assurance
of no infringment of our constitution 3
and our traditions." ij
Cease Hoover Activities t
PORTLAND, Ore., May 14. Her-
bert Hoover has requested- cessation
of all effort In his behalf in the pri-
mary campaign in Oregon, accord-
ing to the construction placed by jr
Chester G. Murphy, his state cam- l
paign chairman, upon Mr, Hoover's 5
tolegram sent to Murphy, and Mur- 'i
phy declared that tho request would J
bo heeded and that no . further ef-
fort in his behalf would be made in
this state, although It Is too lato to 5
have hie namo loft off tho primary $
ballot. .i
Murphy based his action on this $
paragraph from Hoover's mossago as
received hore.
On Oregon Contest
"I understand that there aro five
candidates on tho Republican ballot I
(In Oregon) all of whom have
friends. Some of theso candidates
are for and somo against tho league.
No one of those candidates can with- f
draw. Consequently thero will bo a x
great spilt In tho votes betwoen moro
names resulting In tho clouding of
tho vital issues. Tho total voto re
corded against the 'no league' candi
dates may give somo Indication of
Orogon's views and ovory effort
should bo directed to this end rather
than to tho advancement of my
namo."
"Inasmuch as tho only important
candidate beforo tho voters of Ore
gon, representing 'no lcaguo' senti
ment, 13 Hiram Johnson of California,
the request of Mr. Hoover can bo
construed only as an urgent request
to defeat Mr. Johnson at tho local
primary of May 21." aaid Murphy.

Colby Declares Monroe Doc
trine Open to Attack as
Europe Loses Power
CHICAGO, May 13. America's posi
tion In tho world today Is "quio tho
reverse of Isolation" Secretary of State
Colby declared In an address in which
he defended tho league of nations and
pointed out that the Urftted States had
been saved from the actual test of war
in defending the Monro doctrine.
Tho secretary said that such a test
had been prevented "not alone by tho
respect of the Avorld for martial qual
ities of America nor for a sincere at
tachment to the doctrine but by tho
European balance of power, which has
checked the confidence and restrained
the initiative of tho nations which
havo from time to time beon tempted
to call the doctrine Into question."
"Thus wo see," he added, "that with
reference to the Monroe doctrine alone
our position has beon quite the reverse
of Isolation. On the contrary we have
been not only exposed repeatedly to
the machinations of European power,
but havo been to a demonstrable ex
tent tho beneficiary of the inter-play
of complicated currents of European
policy.
"It remained for the great war to
t
finally shatter tho American tradition
of isolation and to dispel the illusion
of security arising from our geograph
ical position."
In referring to the Monroe Doctrine,
Mr. Colby said that Its source was dis
tinctly European.

Attorney General Palmer Ad
mits Falsity of Accusations
Against Seattle Man
I WASHINGTON, May 14. Federal
Investigation has not sustained
charges that Max II. Houser, second
J vice president of tho United States
grain corporation, had used his office
tt manipulate grain prices and reap
Immense profits, Attornoy General
Palmer announced today.
Tho Investigation was mado at Mr.
Housor's request after a Spokano
grand jury had mado public accusa
tions although it returned no indict
ment. United States Attorney Hum
phreys, of Portland, Ore., was desig
nated to conduct tho investigation and
his findings, together with n report by
George It. Mayo, special accountant
for tho dopartmont of justice, wero
mado public by Mi. Palmer.
Mr. Humphreys summed up the re
sults of his examination in tho state
ment that the grand jury's charges
"wero without foundation in fact," Mr.
Mayo's analysis of records of Mr.
Houser'a personal transactions stated
tho profits of tho Houser milling in
terests to have beon 17S,106 on an
invested capital of 3,720,000.
"I find that Mr. Houser personally
and through his milling companies did
not make immense profits," Mr. Hum
phroyB stated, "Tho profits were
small. There was no violation of law,
no improper use by Mr. Houser of his
position, and no evidence of manipula
tion of wheat prices by officials of
tho grain corporation. On tho con
trary, the evidence indicates that Mr.
House? sacrificed his time and busi
ness to tho grain corporation."
