CONFERENCES HELD Offer to Officiate at Ceremony Made Without Sanction.

June 2. (A. High authorities of the Church of England tonight frowned dis approvingly on the "poor man's parson" who volunteered to marry the Duke of Windsor and Mrs. Wallis Warfield according to the rites' of that church. After a conference with the Archbishop of Canterbury, the Bishop of Fulham, who has jurisdiction over Anglican church affairs in France, announced that the Reverend R.

Anderson Jardine had acted without the bishop's "consent or even his knowledge." The Archbishop of Canterbury, highest prelate of the Church of England, led the pre-abdication fight against the marriage of the duke, then King Edward VIII and head of the church. The Reverend Mr. Jardine is vicar of St. Paul's in Darlington. Church Leaders Confer.

The vicar's surprise entry into the duke's xomance with the twice divorced Mrs. resulted in a series of quick conferences among church leaders. The Archbishop of Canterbury himself remained silent, but his subordinates confirmed Jardine's statement, "I consulted only my own conscience" in deciding to bestow on Edward and his bride a religious benediction. London newspapers abandoned their recent reticence concerning news of the duke's wedding and placed banner headlines over the news of the religious service. This even overshadowed The Derby at Epsom Downs, which is of prime importance to Englishmen.

Friends disclosed that Jardine became known as "the poor man's parson" for his work in the Liverpool slums. As vicar of St. Paul's in Darlington he has twice aroused the anger of high churchmen. Once Accused By Bishop. Once his superior, the Bishop of Durham, accused Jardine of "a grave breach of propriety" for preaching in a Wesleyan chapel near his own church.

Again he was criticized for writing parishoners advocating a "trade union clergy" to permit clergymen to discuss problems "untrammeled and unhindered by red tape and so-called ecclesiastical traditions." "He's an intrepid sort of fellow" unafraid of his own convictions, a friend said. The Bishop of Fulham's statement declared: "If it is true that the Reverend Jardine has undertaken to perform a religious ceremony in connection with the marriage of the Duke of Windsor, the Bishop of Fulham, (Continued on Page Two, CoL 4.) i I i UK si MM I COLUMBUS, June 2. (A. Governor Martin L. Davey held a conference with Republic Steel Corporation and Youngstown Sheet Tube Company officials today, and said tonight he was "hopeful" of an early settlement of the steel strike.

The governor met at the executive mansion in a closed conference with Tom Girdler, chairman of the board of Republic Steel, and two other officials of Republic, and S. C. Argetsinger, vice president of Youngstown Sheet and Tube Company. He said he hoped to confer Friday with representatives of the Steel Workers' Organizing Committee, which called the strike. Quotes Troops Head.

The Ohio governor refused to comment on what took place in the conference, and said: "If there is not too much said, I feel that progress can be made." He said the conference followed a meeting with John Owens, regional organizer of the Committee for Industrial Organization, yesterday. He refused to say whether the conference with steel executives today would lead to a joint meeting soon with the union representatives. He quoted Adjutant General Emil F. Marx, head of the Ohio National Guard, who is at the scene of the strike in Ohio as an observer, as saying the "situation is not serious." He said there had been no indication there was a necessity for calling National Guardsmen to the plants. "I am hoping to bring the opposing factions a little closer together," the governor said.

Amelia Earhart Putnam hopped across the Caribbean today and completed the second leg of her flight "around the fattest part of the world" as she landed at this small coastal village. The American woman flier took off from San Juan, Puerto Rico at 5:45 a. m. and came to a landing here at 10:18 making the 650-mile hop in four hours and 33 minutes.

Before dinner, as the company waited for late arrivals, the duke was in a festive mood.

The last controversial issues of the General Assembly session virtually were settled today, as recalcitrant com mittees brought out bills establishing the administration's state-wide relief system, merging the state police and highway patrol, and further regulating the state's liquor monopoly. Yielding to the ultimatum of Governor Earle, the House welfare committee after wrangling for two hours, early this morning agreed to report out the poor board "ripper" unchanged. The rest of the relief bills came out with amendments designed to limit administrative red tape. Defeat Indicated.

A Democratic House caucus, at which State Chairman David L. Lawrence demanded support for the relief program, was said to have yielded to organization pressure. "Rebels" were ready to propose amendments to provide for refer-endums in each county before the poor board "ripper" became effective. But everything pointed tonight to defeat of the amendments, and passage of the bills in their present form. Amendments inserted in the relief bills today restore the power of the State Board of Public Assistance to set rules and regulations to toe followed by local boards; remove from the personnel' board the power to classify positions and to fix salaries for employes, and give this power to the personnel board and the department of assistance jointly; and once again provide for taking over present relief employes by means of non-competitive examinations.

In addition to thus again centralizing relief authority in Harrisburg, the House welfare committee also struck from the section "dealing with political activities, one which would have' prevented any relief employe from "paying" a political contribution. They are still barred from soliciting or receiving such contributions. Amendments to the liquor bills restore to grocery and delicatessen stores the right to make sales of beer in small quantities for use off the premises a right which the Senate, by amendment, had taken away and also permit -municipalities by oruinance to set a closing hour of 12 o'clock for beer licensees, instead of 2 o'clock. Has Wide Authority. Meanwhile the Senate late today confirmed Governor Earle's appointments to the powerful Labor Relations Board, which will have wide authority over collective bargaining in the state's smaller industries those which do not enter interstate commerce and hence are not subject to the National act.

The board members are: Levi G. ILichliter, Jennerstown, Somerset county, chairman of the State Securities Commission since 1935, and "runner-up" for appointment on the new Public Utility Commission.

Special to the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette and the Chicago Tribune. NEW YORK, June 2. A paltry $5,750 apiece will be paid to the heirs of passengers who died in the flaming Zeppelin Hindenburg or those who escaped with agonizing injuries.

An international air agreement, ratified in 1934, has established this low figure, so sharply in contrast to the usual American awards for railroad, bus and airplane liabilities. Because the Hindenburg was in international flight from Germany to America, her crash at Lake-hurst is subject to the Warsaw International Air Convention.

R. Gets Injunction, Saying Dangers Have Been Reduced. HARRISBURG, June 2. UP) A temporary injunction granted the Pennsylvania Railroad by Dauphin county court today restrained the state from putting into immediate effect the full-crew bill, requiring an extra brakeman on freight trains of 50 or more cars and passenger trains of 10 or more cars. The bill was signed by Governor Earie last night.

The court set June 7 for hearings on the order. Fred B. Bamkert, spokesman for the Pennsylvania Railroad, said other railroads would join in the suit. The administration said the law would add to the safety of trainmen and travelers. Railroad executives contended it would be too costly.

The railroad said that, since 1913, it has spent $250,000,000 for protection and safety of passengers and employes. Dangers which the 1911 full crew act, since repealed, sought to eliminate, have been reduced greatly, the petition stated. AMERICAN'S BOOK BANNED BY NAZIS "Germany Honors Me, Declares Author.
