risrusion of the Princeton Theological Seniftiary report held the center of interest hers today. Ir. William O. Thompson or Co-litmhus. Ohio, chairman of the irvs- tiKting committee, read the report to the Ccneral A--emliy yeMierdav.

The report declared thnt "under present conditions the draft of sem inary control seems to be away from the proper service of the church and tow.rd nn defense of the policy of a group. It further stated that the repre sentatives of this roup in the Princeton faculty declare there are opposite attitudes so serious that no peace between them is either possible or desirable." Direct control over the seminaries by the Assembly is desired, the report stated. As a means toward t'ds the recommendations of the committee include one thnt the Assembly should appoint a committee of nine members of whom at leapt three shall be ruling elders of the Church, to supplant the existins: dual control of directors and trustees.

Br.

Charles Livingston, in behalf of the society, that Biahop Manning is not now and never has been in favor of Prohibition.

Church at Setauket, L. I.

"Refused to Aid Dry Fight." "Bishop Manning not only refused to contribute one cent to the cause of Prohibtion, but he flatly refused to allow his name to be used in the fight we were making to put the Prohibtion law into the Constitution. "Dr. Manning has since stated that he does not regard it a sin for a man to take a drink.

"There has been nothing to indicate any change in the judgment of the bishops upon this question," said Bishop Manning's statement. "My own Judgment is that in view of what our race has suffered from the evils of strong drink and in view ot the results of Prohibition in this country ase a whole during the brief term it has been ill operation ns shown by the most careful and impartial survevs we should all of us wish to see this great social experiment fully and airly tried and should give It our full moral suort."
