Will the Southern Presbyterian As sembly organically unite with one. Presbyterian denomination and cut off fraternal relationships with all other protestanta? This Is the question which its com- mis»sloners probably will be compelled to answer while the Assmebly is In session in Atlanta. There is little doubt that the South ern Assembly will combine with the United Presbvterlan Church, but it Is possible that it will sever Its con nection with the Federal Council of the Churches of Christ in America. The Federal Council includes prac tically the combined Protestant force? of the United States, representing 30 different denominations which have a communicant membership of 16,- 000,000. One of the chief reasons given by those who favor the separ ation is their objection to the social service platform adopted by the Fed eral Council. Platform of Council Here Is the pialifortri bf^the Council to which exception has been taken: The Church must stand: 1 For equal rights and com plete justice for all men In all stations of life. 2. For the protection of the fatnily, by the single standard of purity, uniform divorce laws, proper regulation of marriage and proper housing. 3. For the fullest possible de velopment for every child, espe cially by the provision of prop er education and recreation. 4. For the abolition of child labor. 5. For Such regulations of the conditions of toil for women as shall safeguard the physical and moral health of the community. 6. For the abatement and pre vention of poverty. 7 For the protection of the In dividual and society from the social, economic and moral waste of the liquor traffic. 8 For the conservation of health. 9. For the protection of the worker from dangerous rnachin ery, occupational diseases and mortality. For Aiding Workers. 10. For the right of all men to the opportunity of self-mainten a nee, for safeguarding this right against encroachment of every kind, and for the protection of workers from the hardships of enforced unemployment. 11. For suitable provision for the old age of the workers, and for those incapacitated by in- 1urv. 12. For the right of employees and employers alike to organise for adequate means of conciliation and arbitration in industrial dis putes. 13 For a release from employ ment one day in seVen. 14. For the gradual and rea sonable reduction of the hours of labor to the lowest practicable point, and for that degree of lei sure for all, which is a condition of the highest human life 15. For a living wage as a minimum in every industry, and for the highest wage that each industry can afford. 15. For a new emphasis upon the application of Christian prin ciple? to the acquisition and use of property, and for the most equitable division of the product of industry that can ultimately be devised. This platform has in substance been Continued on Page 3, Column 5. Detectives Not Centering All Their Efforts on Frank and Lee Now. Detectives In the Phagan mystery are not centering all their efforts upon Frank and Lee. New' theories have been advanced, new clews examined and every possible theory is being In vestigated. It was because of these rumors on the streets to-dav that a report was spread that an entirely new lead was being followed by Solicitor Dorsey that might eliminate both Frank and Lee. Solicitor Dorsey paid very little at tention to the reports. "There are no developments so.far,” he said, “which would tend to swerve the proaecution from its present course. The cases of the two men held will be placed before the Grand Jurj' as soon as the evidence against them can be properly shaped, unless other developments justify a change." New Theory Investigated. The new theory alluded to has been submitted by a private detective employed by the Solicitor's office. The man, whose Identity haa not been revealed. has been working along lines entirely at variance to those pursued by the prosecutor Mr. Dorsey stated that while as yet no evidence had been produced to sub stantiate the proposed solution, that his investigators have taken the mat ter up and will go to the bottom of it. Every available means will be used to prove or disprove the detec tive’s theory An important affidavit was added Tuesday to the great mass of evi dence already collected bv Solicitor Dorsey. Another affidavit considered of im portance was that made by Miw Mag- git Wyatt. 44 Pickett Street, who formerly was employed at the pencil factory. Miss *WilHe M Ross. 259 Crew Street; who is said to have heard screams in the pencil factory at 4:30 on the afternoon of the tragedy, ap peared at Mr. Dorsey’s office in the morning and made an exhaustive statement which she signed. Dorsey Will Welcome Burns When asked later what she knew of the case, Mies Ross declared she had absolutely no knowledge of it. Solicitor Dorsey, when asked about the report that Detective Burns was coming to Atlanta to take charge of the Investigation, declared that he would welcome Mr. Burns. Colonel Felder, whose correspond ence with the great detective gave rise to the report that he would enter the Investigation, stated Tuesday morning that he would know posi tively by Wednesday whether Burns would comply with his request. Mr. Burns is due to arrive in New York from Europe some time Tuesday. The Grand Jury probably will h.»l i an extra session this week to “clean up” the routine docket in order that there will be nothing fo interfere with the Phagan case when it is presented by Solicitor Genera! Hugh M. Dorsey. Consider Extra Session. The Solicitor and his assistant. E. A. Stephens, discussed Monday me advisability of an extra session for one day before Friday, the regular meeting day. and may isaue a call iti the jurors to assemble Wednesday. The Solicitor explained, however, that it probably would take the two sessions this svee; to dispose of ton routine, and the Phagan case might not reach the jury until Friday of next week, or an extra session to be called the first part of the week. Mrs. Rudolph Frank, mother of Leo Frank, was seen for the first time at her home in Brooklyn Monday by the newspaper reporters. She de- Contlnued on Page 2, Column 3. RESULTS AT LOUISVILLE.

BY JAMES B. NEVIN. DA 1,1, AS. TEXAS, May 13.—For rest Adair filed with the Imperial Council to-day official invitations from Atlanta for next year’s session from Governor Brown, Governor-elect Slaton. Mayor Woodward, the Capital City, Transportation, University and Piedmont Driving Clubs and many other social and business organiza tions and persons in Atlanta. There seems to be nothing left that might have been done to Insuie At lanta’s winning the big prize of the session In Dallas. About the hotel* and streets it generally is conceded that Atlanta will win. The parade of the patrols to-day. escorting the Imperial Council to r» opening session, was beautlfu! and served to Jam the streets with specta tors almost to suffocation. There were about 100 patrols in line, aver aging 50 men each; 20 brass bands, and a civic procession of something like 150 filled automobiles. Every patrol was uniformed differently and gorgeously. Great Parade for To-night. Thai parade, bigger and better, for already It Is predicted that the at tendance in Atlanta next year ia to be much heavier than It Is here, will look mighty attractive along White hall and Peachtree next year. The big paraae of the session takes place to night. when It Is expected that about 15,000 Shriner* will march in line un der the glitter of 100,000 electric lights. No patrol in to-day's parade at tracted more applause and attention than the Yaarab patrol, under Cap tain J O. Seamans and Dieutenanc* Cuts Vandiver and Ashford. Atlanta's fight was given a big boost to-day when Cdlonel Robert I*, folding, of Savannah, arrived and plunged headlong into the contest to put Atlanta over. He is on» of the best known Shriners In America, and has bean of vast help to the Atlanta w orkers. Fred Houser of Atlanta, has the publicity end of the Atlanta campaign in hand and has handled it splendid ly. The Dallas papers are full of At lanta and Its enterprise to-day. They all pick ihe Ga'e City for a winner In to-morrow’s balloting. Irwin Named Potentate. At the Texas session, the only thing done of Interest to the public was the election of William W. Irwin, of Wheeling. W. Va., to be imperial po tentate next year. He will preside in Atlanta and he told me to-day that the fact was particularly gratifying to him. He has been outspoken in his sup port of Atlanta for the honor of en tertaining the Shrine In 1914. He and Forrest Adair are great cronies, and have been at many sessions of the Imperial Council. The other Impe rial Council members were advanced In rotation, as Is custo viary in the order. There was a mighty careful check ing up of names and counting of noses along somewhere after midnight last night. The Yaarab workers did not quit talking Atlanta until the rest of creation out here had gone to bed. Along about daylight Forrest Adair figured that Atlanta had it on Memphis by about two to one Maybe It is more than that, but two to one looks good enough anyway. Memphis is putting up the gamem sort of fight. The Tennessee olty has a big bunch of rooter* here and the tovYn has been flooded with lit erature. However, Atlanta has been right there with the literature, and In the matter of pure unadulterated talk and hard work the Georgia city has made Memphis hard to locate. John Hynds, Joe Greenfield and
