DETROIT LANDLORD GREETED BY FUSILLADE OF BRICKS DETROIT, Mich., May 5 Morris Pearlman, an apartment house owner, was greeted by a fussilade of bricks and other missiles here when he called at the building to collect rentals which the tenants told the police had been increased 50 per cent. As sympathizers with the tenants congregated Pearlman took refuge in the janitor's apartment and listened to hoots and cries of "lynch him" until a police officer arrived and rescued him. Tenants claimed they had offered to compromise at a 25 per cent increase, but that their offer had been rejected.

Bonus Talk Revives Civil
War Veterans' Memories Talk of a bonus for world war vet
erans, is reviving memories in the minds of civil war veterans. Many of
the "old soldiers" including some from
Wayne county, are writing to Harry
B. Smith, adjutant-general of Indiana, inquiring about a bonus they say are entitled to but never received.
When the civil war broke out many
counties offered a bonus for enlistments. Some counties offered a larger
bonus than others, and as a result
their quotas of enlistments were filled
rapidly, while the smaller bonus
counties, perhaps, failed to provide
their quotas.
As a matter of fact, many old sol
diers" never received the promised bonus, and, stirred by talk of a bonus
for world war veterans, they are inquiring of the adjutant-general whether there is any way to get what is
coming to them.
Mr. Smith has taken up the question with Ele Stansbury, attorney-
general, but inasmuch as the bonus proposition in those days seems to
have been a strictly county matter, little progress has been made.
Economy Pupils Will Be
Graduated on May 22
The annual commencement of the
Editor Palladium: Inasmuch as
Richmond has so recently entertained '
a section of Methodism known as the North Indiana conference, perhaps your readers will be interested in a few phases of the transactions of the general conference now In session at Des Moines, la. This Is a world session and occurs once every four years. There are now 134 annual conferences comprising territory embraced in the continental United States, Africa, Asia, Europe and Latin America. There are 835 delegates of which 41 are women. Delegates have come from Bombay, Bengal, South Central and Northern sections. They are here from North China, central China and Korea. Europe is represented by Italians, Danes, Swiss, Swedish and North Germans.
From All Over World. To show that Methodism is thor
oughly cosmopolitan, a few names will
illustrate; from Germany, Oscar Rog-
atzky and Louis Fritsche; from Den
mark, Anton Bast and Johonnes Munch; from Italy, Alfredo Toghalaleta and Carmelo Rapicavolli; from Korea, O. Kui Soon and Chun T. No; from North China, Ch'en Wei Ping
and Wang Hon Chai; from North India, Gulzari Lai Lorenzo and N. K.
Mukejll. The North China delegates traveled more than 7,000 miles to reach Des Moines, and had to engage passage five months in advance. They came via Vancouver, while the Indian delegates came via New York. The Indian delegates are native Hindus and speak English fluently. All of the delegates from foreign lands can speak English fairly well. An interesting feature was the repeating of the Lord's prayer by the assembly from all nations. Some big problems will come up for attention. The one most far reaching perhaps is the proposed unification of the Methodist Episcopal church and the Methodist Episcopal church, south. A special committee of 27 was appointed to recommend a plan of action to the main body. Separate Area Up. Another feature which will affect Indiana particularly will be the question of creating a separate area corresponding with the natural boundaries of Indiana with a resident Bishop
at Indianapolis. At the present time
2 Per Cent Profit On Shoes During War, Says Official To Committee WASHINGTON, May 5 Replying to charges that he had made excessive profits on war contracts, Richard H. Long, head of the R. H.

than $23,000,000.

that his company saved the government $4,071,000 through lower bids lor leather and textile supplies. Present Figures Figures were presented by him to show that the company's profits were $402,900, which, he said, was $1,965,700 less than a normal 10 per cent profit. "Our income in 1916, the year before the war," Mr. Long asserted, "was greater than our annual income from war contracts in 1917 and 1918. In addition, we lost our regular business and we still are handicapped by being tied up with a large amount of war materials on hand." Presentation of statistics on the company's war business was followed by lengthy questioning of the witness by Chairman Graham, who later asked that the concern's books for the war period be furnished the committee. Mr. Long complied with the chairman's request.
