REFORMED CHURCH SYNOD FOR LEAGUE OF NATIONS

At its meeting In Reading, Pa., May 19 to 23, 1920, the General Synod of the Reformed Church in the United States adopted the following report by a vote of 51 to 4: “Report of committee on the treaty of peace to the reverend general synod: “Dear Fathers and Brethren— There was placed in the hands of your committee a communication from the ‘League to Enforce Peace,’ containing a report and resolution of the Chamber of Commerce of the state of New York respecting the treaty of peace, and requesting that a similar action be taken by your reverend body. “We are reminded by this communication that, although the war was practically, ended Nov. 12, 1918, nevertheless almost a year and a half have passed by without the ratification of the proposed treaty of peace and the indorsement of a league of nations by our government. “And, since we as a people helped to win the war at such a great sacrl-

flee, and without any motive ,of gain, we believe we have a right to insist that our government at the earliest possible moment ratify the treaty of peace and help to establish a league of nations so that the possibilities of war may be greatly minimized, if not., entirely prevented. “And since the rejection pf the treaty has brought about a crisis in morals and trade, and threatens to deprive us of the moral leadership of the world, and since many parts of Europe are in a desperate political and economic plight, and since to stand aloof from such a treaty of peace would appear almost as selfish as keeping out of the war would have been, and since peace is wanted, and wanted speedily, by the American people and the entire world; and since it is the high and solemn duty of the Christian church to stand for honorable peace and promote peace in accord with spirit, and teachings of Jesus Christ, the great Prince of Peace, therefore be it “Resolved, That this synod express itself as favoring the speedy ratification of the treaty of peace and par-, tlcipation in a league of nations, being thoroughly convinced that some I

form of international covenant which seeks to prevent war is a moral necessity. And be it further “Resolved, That our action be communicated to the president and senate of the United States.” —(The Christian Work, New York city.) “I have no quarrel with* the Re--1 publican party. My fight is against the senatorial oligarchy, that group of men in the senate which paid no attention to the rank and file of the Republican party when they came finally to select the nominee of the convention in Chicago. It is my contention that this senatorial oligarchy not only deserves the condemnation of the American people for what it has done to the civilization of the world, but it deserves as well the repudiation of the rank and file of the Republican party for its utter disregard of the express mandate at the primaries.—Governor Cox.

assist the elevator operators in the neighborhood to keep abreast of the grain market. According to some reports in Kehtland this little branch office netted its jowners 150,000 last year. The Republican candidate’s board of trade relations came into a more unfavorable light, however, last June when the Raub Grain company, a farmers' co-operative company, of Raub, Ind., found that nearly |50,000 of the company’s money had been lost in board of trade transactions.. When accountants investigated the books they found that the manager, L. W. Kelley, had been dealing in “futures” and that the Sawers Grain company of Chicago held an account of 1:39,000 against the company and McCardle and Black of Indianapolis |6,000 more. Known as Gambling Debts The Indianapolis News referred to these debts as having been incurred in “gambling,” and E. G. Hall, a lawyer of Fowler, instructed the directors not to liquidate them for the same reason. It is worthy of note that the Sawers company has not pressed its claim against the Raub company, although reports here are to the effect that the matter will be taken up by the company after election. So far as known, however, no move has ever been made by McCray s Chicago company to bring up the question of a settlement. Raub is right across the Newton county line in Benton county and the Raub Grain company was a competitor of the grain company controlled by McCray In Kentland. Goodrich Men Involved The sequel to the Raub scandal has brought to light an Interesting connection on the part of the Goodrich administration Involving John W. McCardle, a Goodrich appointee on the public service commission. Mr. McCardle’s son, C. A. McCardle, is a member of the Indianapolis firm of McCardle & Black. Representatives Of McCardle & Black, it is said by Raub residents, had obtained the promise of some of the directors of the company that they could have grain stored in the elevator in payment for the claim held against Kelley. A shortage of cars, however, prevented movement of the grain at this time. The senior McCardle was In Washington and cars were sent to Raub through an order of the Interstate commerce commission, but when they arrived the Raub company refused to send the grhln to Indianapolis dealers. No one here will accuse Mr. McCardle of having used his official position to obtain cars for his son's use, but many remark that it was a strange coincidence that he was in Washington and that the cars for this particular object started to move at the same time.
