AGED MORMON PRESIDENT DIES
Headed Faith Since 1918; Fought Polygamy.
SALT LAKE CITY, May 15 (U. P.) —~Heber Jedediah Grant, first native of Utah to become president of the Latter Day Saints (Mormon)
church, died last night. He was 88. He had long been in faltering health, :
Grant's widow, ‘eight daughters and their husbands and two church {councillors, J. Reuben Clark, former {U. 8. ambassador to Mexico, and David O. McKay, were at his bedside. A ninth daughter survives, Death was due to old ‘age. Changed Youthful View Grant assumed the presidency Nov, 23, 1918. He had become an uncompromising foe of polygamy, although he had embraced it in his youth. He supported the church in its manifesto of 1893 which demanded excommunication for members indulging in the practice, which has not yet been completely stamped out. He was an ardent pacifist, Church members—nearly a million strong—began praying for Grant's restoration to good . health last month when -he was unable to attend the church's semi-annual conference. His last conference appear= ance was in October, 1944, when he was forced to leave in the middle of the first session, Leader at 24 Grant, at 24, became the church's youngest stake president when he was named fo head the Tooele stake. (In Mormonism, a stake is the controlling unit of a number of church wards.) He was elected to the Council of Twelve Apostles and on Nov, 23, 1916,- became senior member of that all-powerful organization. Two years later to the day, he became president of the council and, as such, was responsible in church | affairs to God alone. Successful in Business
Throughout his life, Grant was unalterably opposed to liquor, tobacco, tea, coffee and other stimulants, counselling against the use of anything which “creates an appetite for itself.” The Mormon leader was born in Salt Lake City Nov. 22, 1856, nine years after Brigham. Young arrived here, ' Grant's business ventures were many and successful. He was president of two banks, an insurance company and was a director of the Union Pacific railroad.
