THREATS TO ABOLISH DISTRICTS MAY HALT METHODIST ELECTION Washington Man Gains for New Post. But Move to Cut Episcopal Areas by Two May Eliminate Need for Voting. DETROIT DIVINE BOOMED By Associated Press.I Convention Hall. Atlantic City. May 18-Conflicting currents of delecross- gate sentiment, the threat of new deadlocks and a move to eliminate two more additional Episcopal areas in lieu of elections perplexed the situation today 85 the Methodist General Conference resumed its balloting for two new bishops.

J. Ralph Magee, Seattle, went into the balloting session still commanding the high vote among contestants, but now there was tendency among conference opinion to question the certainty of his election. After gaining steadily during the nominating vote. Magee reached his high mark on the eighth ballot, when his 514 votes were only thirty-nine short of the two-thirds necessary for election. On the ninth ballot.

he suffered his first set back. losing twelve votes--a development which some believe marks the end of his march toward election. Others, however, think Magee too formidable a man to block and look for him eventually to win the two-thirds vote. Meanwhile there is the threat of the movement, backed by a strong bloc, to have two more Episcopal areas abollished. thereby raising the number of available bishops to the number of posts to be filled and doing away with the necessity for any elections of new men.

WOULD CUT TWO MORE. Seven Episcopal areas have already been abolished by the conference to effect economies and the move to have this number increased to nine has been developing for the past week. The first attempt to bring it before the conference was made yesterday, when it was proposed that the conference adopt such a plan if the result of the tenth ballot, to be tabulated today, did not bring an election. The proposal was ruled out of order, but observers believe it will come up again if several subsequent ballots do not produce A choice. Dr.

Joseph M. Gray, Detroit, whose deadlock with Lewis O. Hartman. Boston. earlier in the voting killed the latter's immediate choice for election.

developed strength to such a degree yesterday that he is now regarded as a possible check on Magee's chances. Grav. second on the list, had 362 votes on the last ballot. SHAW GAINS STRENGTH. The unexpected gains of Dr.

W. E. Shaw, Peoria, yesterday, puts him within striking distance of the second place. Shaw started the day with 80 votes and ended with 243 after making the greatest gains of any candidate. He is now regarded as a very strong possibility for a bishopric.

A change of sentiment considerably dampened the prospects of Dr. Hartman and Dr. Albert Pittsburgh, two erstwhile leading contenders. Hartman has been falling steadily behind since the break of the deadlock which existed between him and Gray. Day's steady progress was definitely checked by opposition believing his comparatively young age (he is 48), and his reputed liberalism a bar to his election.

Dr. Day finished fifth in yesterday's balloting with 151, drop of 135 from his high mark. Hartman was fourth a with 166, a loss of sixty votes for the day. Others considered still in the running, but far oehind the leaders, are: R. S.

Black characterized Cross's ideas as sound. Cross has said that tax relief must originate from small groups such as chambers of commerce and luncheon clubs in order to affect legislation, because congressmen will not do anything unless they receive pressure from "back "There are few clear divisions between the Republican and Democratic parties today as each party has adopted good points from the platform of the Black said. "Both parties stand for a protective tariff. but the Democrats advocate international negotiations relative to the tariff."

In 1896 82 per cent of the electorate voted for President, against 50 per cent in 1928. E. D. Brown, member of the faculty of the Ridgewood High School, spoke in favor of modern socialism, which is. he said, "governmental control of the necessities of life." The low water rate is an example of the advantage of government over private ownership.

The Socialists are strongly in favor of planning which will avert the ridiculous spectacle of carloads of foodstuffs going to waste in the West while people in New York City are starving. The difficulty with Socialism, Brown admitted, is the fact that the majority of people aren't honest. 'However, in 10,000 years we may devise system of preventing little children from starving." he said. Miss Lu Howard, president of the Yowochas Club, presented the speakers.

CITY MANAGER UNDER FULL CONTROL, SAYS TEANECK COUNCILMAN Takes Exception to Vanderwart's Interpretation of ActManager May Be Removed for Cause-People Hold Whip. SUGGESTS CAREFUL STUDY Emphatic exception is taken to an editorial appearing yesterday in the Bergen Evening Record by Samuel Paquin, councilman of Teaneck Township in a communication dated yestercay and addressed to the paper. The editorial in question dealt in part with objections on the part of Mayor Herman Vanderwart of Hackensack to the Municipal Manager form of government. The article stated that the manager may become "a virtual monarch if he is inclined to make full use of his power' and Paquin quotes from the Municipal Manager Act to show that such a statement is not correct. He points out that the manager may be removed for cause by the council and that the council in turn is responsible to the people since they may have a recall at any time.

In conclusion. Paquin suggests that. Vanderwart read the law carefully to see for himself that it is one of "most beneficial laws spread on the statute books of New Jersey" and suggests that the people of Hackensack do likewise. WILLOW LAKE FILLING PLAN IS ABANDONED Council Hears That Proposal is Not Feasible. The possibility of filling in Willow Lake, situated Pickens Street.

Washington Avenue Main Street, near -And borough line, with dredgings from the Hackensack River, was eliminated with conclusive certainty, when the committee of Councilman Herman Werneking, Borough Attorney Charles F. Job, investigating possibility toDurnan and Borough. Engineer Florio gether with the dredging project, submitted a report to the Little Ferry Borough Council at a meeting last night in 1 borough hall. Councilman Robert B. Brown, at the last meeting of the body, suggested that while the committee was investigating answers for the questionnaire, they might consider possibility of using dirt from the river bed to fill in the lake.

He stated at that time that if the hole were filled, it would add much to the town in the form of appearance and revenue in taxes. That the borough could not undertake the project was made certain by Durnan, who stated that most of the lake WAS owned by private interests, and that the taxpayers' money could not be used to improve private property. Durnan also stated that although the borough holds a tax lien on a large portion of the lake, it does not actually own it until after the close of foreclosure proceedings. Werneking stated that he had interviewed William Zabransky, part owner of the lake, who was opposed to the plan. Necessary permission must be secured from all owners if the project is to be undertaken.

It had been previously estimated that the cost of fill was approximately 3 to 4 cents per cubic yard. The filling in of the lake would cost approximately $36,750 to the owners, as there are almost 1,225,000 cubic yards to be filled. Former Councilman Bartholomew J. Vandernoot advised the council that it could easily get the lake filled if it were demand from the owners the replacement of four streets on the borough map, which show them to run through the property where re the lake now is. Borough Engineer Floyd Job stated that the dredge at present in the river is only an auxiliary one, and that it has no connection with the future project.

He also stated that as yet the federal government has not approved of the new dredging plan of the river. A representative of the company now dredging the river, he said. visited him, stating that he had 20,000 cubic yards of matter to be disposed of, and that it possibly be used to fill in Willow Lake. This would be but a small portion of the amount needed, and Job allowed the matter drop. Meanwhile, the dredger is carrying out the filling in of an abandoned clay pit of the Hackensack Brick Company on Bergen Pike, Little Ferry.

McLaughlin, Bronx, New York, district attorney, is investigating the futile payment of $50,000 ransom for the kidnaped Lindbergh baby in an attempt to find clues to the slayers. His letter follows in full: CHALLENGES STATEMENT. "While I have no acquaintance with Mayor Vanderwart of Hackensack, in fairness to readers of your newspaper I cannot let go unchallenged the statements attributed to him in an editorial in this evening's Record entitled "Pollticians Would Miss the Gravy." In that editorial appears the following: "Mayor Vanderwart's objection to the adoption of city manager government by law is that it makes the city manager a virtual monarch if he is inclined to make full use of his power.

When this assertion was disputed in private discussion, the Mayor said, 'Read the law carefully and see for "How strong the sentiment is in Hackensack in favor of the municipal manager form of government I know, but I do know the New Jersey Municipal Manager Law, having read the law carefully and seen for myself. Knowing the law and not knowing Mr. Vanderwart, I feel free to suggest that if he is, like most politicians, definitely opposed to a form of municipal government that the people at all times can directly control, he could make no shrewder move than to endeavor to destroy any sentiment there may be in Hackensack favorable to Municipal Manager Government, by presenting picture of a municipal manager as a Regional Evening School For Foreign Born Adults This is the ninth of a series of co-operation of William A. Smith, sack schools, on a regional evening Due to the fact that the organization, of classes for adult foreign born persons has problems peculiar to itself, the following questions are Are special equipment and text books necessary? 1. Yes, decidedly! Rooms must be well lighted.

Chairs and desks should fit adult bodies. Uncomfortable bodies do not let the mind relax and so are not conducive to good mental work. 2. Text books must contain material of interest to adult minds and pertinent to the daily needs of adults in a strange land. They must use the specialized methods needed for this particular work.

They must be graded carefully from the needs of a low group of nonEnglish speaking illiterates to the needs of advanced students with a careful educational background. They should interpret America; give information concerning those matters which newcomers need to know and often learn too late; compensation and other laws; what the term notary public denotes in America; what services banks, post oflibraries, offer. Why must classes be small? 1. The students need much individual help to get the best and quickest results. They must hear little or no English outside of the school.

2. One learns a language by speaking by studying about it, hence the classes must be small enough to allow leach student time to practice speaking. A two- class-120 minutes- with a recess allows 110 minutes. ten there are twenty people in the class and the teacher is clever enough, not to take more than ten minutes evening for explanations, dictation, and corrections each student has only five minutes of actual practice and recitation at best.
