STATEMENT OUTUfJESSOAL OF FIVE-YEAR MEETING
By S. E. Nicholson. The next Five Years meeting of Friends will be asked to make some ladical changes in Its working organism. The Committee of Seven, of which S, E. Nicholson of this city Is chairman, appointed by the Men's Conference last October to consider the question of a revision of the Boards vt the Five Years Meeting and to develop a financial plan for the support cf the Boards, made Its report this week to the Executive Committee. This committee suggested that the report be given the 'fullest publicity and that the Committee of Seven be invited to continue the study of the
secretaries." The committee also recommends that the Boards be made up of a fewer number of individuals. Tho possibility of including the Committee on Indian Affairs under the Home Mission Board is left for further consideration. The report further says, "In order that the work of the Yearly Meetings may be properly coordinated with tho work of the Five Years Meeting H should be understood that each general Board has general oversight over
the work in its department in all the Yearly Meetings, keeping in mind the welfare and progress of the entire church, authorized to make a" survey of the entire field, with the understanding that the corresponding Year
ly Meeting Boards shall be. the. work
ASK PRESIDENT .TO MAKE NEW PEACE EFFORTS
WASHINGTON, Oct. 21 Regardless of the outcome of the coming election, President Wilson will be asked to make another move for peace. Word was received here today that a movement along this line again is being strongly fostered by the American neutral conference committee of which Hamilton Holt is chairman and several organizations whose identity has not yet been revealed. The appeal to the president will be made
i shortly after election. It will be made
simultanenously to a similar appeal to
the Pope and very probably King Al phonso of Spain, it is understood here
GOLD PUTS STANDSTILL TO CENTENNIAL STUNTS
a hole problem during the coming 'lng af,encies to carry the plans into
year. The report of the Committee or
Seven expresses the judgment that there are too many Boards and Committees of the Five Years Meeting and Indicates that th'e Committee has considered the whole question under three general heads: (t.) A reduction of the number of boards; (2.) The coordination of the Boards with the corresponding machinery of the Yearly Meeting and (3.) The proper financing of the Boards. Establish New Board. , At present there Is no Home Mission Poard of the Five Years Meeting and It is proposed to establish such a department, combining all the home .mission activities of the church. Tho committee reported the following sug gested arrangements for the Boards und Committees: fa) A Foreign Mission Board as constituted at present; (b) A Home Mission and Social Service Board, combining the Evangelistic and Church Extension Board, the Social- Service Board, the Peace Association of Friends in America, the Board on J-"' Nation and Temperance and the Jt;' 1 on the Welfare and Condition the Negro; (c) A Board under a buitabie name combining the Publication Board, the Bible School Board, the Educational Board and the Board on Young Friends Activities, with
two departments, one on publication interests and the other on publicity or propaganda; (d) Associated Executive Committee on Indian Affairs: (e) Board of Trustees, which shall be the Financial Board of the Five Years Meeting. Justifies Combination In justification of this combination the committee says, 'if the present" tendency toward secretarial work i hall continue it seems all the more Important that as many related Boards as posible be put under one head in order to limit properly the number of
effect." This is in the interest of the better coordination of the work of the church. Raise Finance Fund. Finally the report suggests that the next Five Years Meeting direct the raising of at least $1,500,000 during the succeeding five years, with which to finance suitably the various departments of the church. The report indicates some of the varied resources from which this money may be secured, and the report Indicates that large numbers of Friends have already given their indorsement to do all the matters indicated in the report, although some objection thus far has been made to the incorporation of the Evangenlical and Church Extension work. The entire matter will be reviewed during the coming year by the membership at large so that the next Five Years Meeting, which convenes in Richmond in 1917, will have the benefit of this discussion.

Louis Gertson in his military type aeroplane found it impossible to fly yesterday afternoon, the wind being so strong that he had to anchor the aeroplan to the ground. It was the
first scheduled flight he missed.
He volunteered to fly but finally con
ceded that the high wind would blow him backwards and it would be im
possible even to land in safety. He
flew over the city at an extremely low
altitude this morning at 11:30 o'clock, the clouds hanging less than a thou
sand feet over the downtown section
This would make night flying of no
avail to the citizens, as it would be impossible to see the demonstration through the clouds. Proves Drawing Card.
The aeroplane has been the biggest feature and drawing card of the Cen
tennial. Even though the night flight may.be inadvisable tonight, members of the Richmond Centennial committee feel that the aviator has furnished the city with more than the value expected in education, instruction, and thrills. He was commended for insisting on carrying out the terms of his contract despite adverse and at times almost impossible weather conditions every day but Tuesday.
