Few Men for the Ministry in Presbyterian Assembly
The Associated Press reports Kansas City May 26 as the Presbyterian general assembly discusses the shortage of ministers. Speakers blame state universities and non denominational colleges for diverting students from religious study into secular curriculums. Rev S W Sneed notes four million Presbyterians yield only 117 men in training and warns mothers and fathers against baptizing children with such implications.

Compromise on currency aims for cross‑chamber accord
Washington May 26 A renewed push for currency compromise surfaces as informal talks among Senate Finance and House Banking and Currency members yield a proposed blend of Aldrich and Wreeland provisions. The plan, still in early form, would favor the emergency bond concept with adjustments to asset backing and a strict definition of commercial paper as security.
