LUTHERANS WILL i ENLARGE HOSPITAL (I tIATINI El) FROM PAIiK OAE) dency of the central district of the Missouri Lutheran synod now lies between tne Rev. J. D. Mathius. of Indianapolis, incumbent, and the Rev. Walter Lichtiinn, of Hammond, following the vote held Monday by the . 600 official delegates attending the 1 six-day conference convention being heli! at Concordia college by pastors, teachers and laymen. Three men were nominated for the presidency, the Rev. P. O. Kleinhaus being eliminated on the ballot held Monday. Other business of the afternoon consisted o fa report by J. C. Trier, treasurer of the district, a report by the chairman of the finance board, a report by the executive committee on the bynod's budget, and reports by tlie mission board. The Rev. Frederick Pfotenhauer, of Chicago, president of the Missouri synod, continued his report on the different phases of the synod's work during the past two years. Discussion of theological and dogmatical questions received the attention of the conference at. the morning session Monday. The theme for the discussion in German was "The State of the Humiliation and the Exaltation of Christ." The discussion on this subject was led by Prof. E. Schnedler. The ’discussion in English on “The Relation of the Church to Civil Government,” was led by the Rev. Arnold Mueller Both Themes will be discussed at the morning sessions the rest of the week, each one being given one and a quarter hours. A layman's meeting at the college chapel at 7 o’clock and a pastoral conference at 7:30 o'clock at the Concordia Lutheran church concluded Monday's program. The convention opened Sunday morning with services being held at the St. Paul's church. The principal speaker was Dr. Pfotenhauer. Practically all the pastors present took part in the communion service. The Rev. Irvin J. G. Fisher, of Aurora, Ind., gave a preparatory address. A special musical program was presented by St. Paul's mixed choir. New Congregations Admitted At the syndical meeting Sunday afternoon, the Rev. Matthius made his opening addres sand gave a report on the activities of the various offices of the synod during a period of two years. ’ Five new congregations were

Schmidt; Bethlehem, Fort Wayne, Prof. Mensing, supply pastor,' and tue Concordia congregation at I Hessville, Ind., Pastor G. Gotterman. — ,0 - COOLIDGE KEEPS CLOSE WATCH ON GENEVA PARLEY (CO.VFi.XI'EB FROM PAGE O*E) costing about $250,000,000 will be necessary to put this country on a pari'y with Great Britain if the Geneva arms conference accepts the American proposal for a 300,000 maximum cruiser tonnage for the two navies. Present American modern cruiser tonnage, built and building, is only 95,000 compared wiJr Britain’s 304,290 tons, according to latest navy department figures. Based on the cost of two 10,000 ton U. S. cruisers under construction — about $1,000,000 per 1,000 tons—it I would cost the American taxpayers $205,000,000 to meet the proposed treaty tonnage, plus about 20 per cent more for guns and equipment. Britain is already building 15 cruisers of the 10,000 ton type, compared with two this country is building and the six additional for which there is only a small initial appropriation. I’nder the American plan, no American destroyer or submarine construction would be required, but excess American ships of both types would Ibe scrapped eventually to meet the proposed treaty limitations. Most observers here predict congress will not make the full $250,000,000 appropriation necessary for the American navy to equal Britain's present 300,000 ton modern cruiser strength, regardless of whether a Geneva treaty allots the United States a 300,000 ton paper strength. The American plan provides a transitional period during hwich cruiser and destroyer totals may be grouped together, thus permitting the United States to maintain her present destroyer supremacy pending achievement of cruiser equality with Great Britain. Officials here today, after studying official summaries of the British and Japanese plan, were hopeful the conference would result in the British and Japanese plan, were hopeful the conference would result in a treaty.

lOn the basic American principle of •extending to auxiliary ships of the United States, Great Britain and Japan, the 5-5-3 capital ship ratio of the Washington treaty, Great Britain is favorable though the Japanese post- ! tion is not yet clear. Only Japanese refusal to accept this ratio would now block a treaty according to some officials here. o — Blames Communists For Massacre At Herrin, 111. Fort Wayne, Ind., June 21 —(UP) — Communists organizers "promoted, fomented, and were responsible” tir the Hetrin 111. massacre of ’922 Ellis Searles, editor of the United Mine Workers journal lold the Indiana Exchange clubs in annual convention here.

The conspiring, he charged culminated in the massacre in which a score of miners were killed. o * i De Molays Open First State Conclave Today Terre Haute, Ind., June 21—(UP) — The first State conclave of De Molays got under way here today when incoming trains, busses, traction cars and automobiles brought scores of De Molays into the city. The convention is scheduled to last two days. Sen. Arthur R. Robinson will give an address, while Louis G.
