Tells Stetson Empleyes He
Won't Stand for Treasury
Discrepancies

"Somebody has taken that money,"
said Clifferd Plnchet, as he told Stetson
empleyes at neon today of the $25,000
shortage uncovered in the State Treas
ury ns of April 30 last year.
"If you send me te Harrlsburg I
won't stand for anything like that," he
udde.l, as he smashed a fist into hi open
hand. "I don't stand for It new and
neither de you."
The candidate opposing Attorney
General r for the nomination for
Governer addressed an enthuilaitta
open-air meeting at the plant. He steed
in Montgomery avenue near Fifth
street and shot home point after point
against the contractor combine's candi
date. Mr. Plnchet referred te the aloof at
titude assumed by Attorney General
Alter when he agreed te become the
slnndard-benrer of the Vare-Baker-Lcs!ie
crowd.
Gang Can't Buy Him
"I wouldn't be fit te be Governer if
T didn't want te be Governer," he told
the workmen. "I want te be Governer.
I learned my job from Colonel Roose
velt. They can't premise me something
better later en as an inducement te go
ever te llie gang."
At thi.t "ement a motertruck lum
bered by tin I the driver sheuted:
"Give us mere beer."
Mr. Pincbet laughed with the ethers.
"I haven't any beer," he called back.
The candidate spoke of the $40,000,
000 deficit new facing the State Treas
ury because the legislature appro
priated mere money tlmn the State taxes
would bring. As a result of the State's
financial condition, he said, workmen
in the Forestry Department had gene
for teveral months without any pay.
Plnchet te Hammer Vans
Mr. Plnchet came te Philadelphia
from Pittsburgh today te continue his
sledgehammer blows against tae Vare
organization, new the main prep of
Attorney General Alter's candidacy.
"It is new the State against Phila
delphia standing alone," said Mr.
Plnchet before the Stetson meeting.
"Seme time age I snld we hnd it rea

Any one who buys liquor is In reality
n bootlegger, in as guilty as the man
who sells it and is1 worthy of excom
munication, according te Bishop Paul
Matthews, of Iho Protestant Episcopal
Diocese of New Jersey.
The bishop spoke today nt the 151th
annual convention of the New Jersey
diocese. The meetings are being held in
St. Paul's Church, Camden. Follow
ing celebration of the Hely Communion
nt 10:30 o'clock Bishop Matthews de
livered his address.
"I feel thnt I should net pass en
without touching upon the subject of
prohibition," said the bishop, "it tne
Christian sentiment of the country docs
net stand- for law, we face moral anu
splriual disaster. The attitude of Chris
tian men and women toward the Vol Vel
stead law is negligent; It is even sym
pathetic. ,
Urges Excommunication
"Any one who buys liquor H ns
guilty as the one who sells it. Beth
arc bootleggers. Neither one has n
place In the church, and .both arc
worthy of excommunication.
"Enthusiasm for Velstead Is net
necessary, nor Is it disloyal te work
for the repeal of the law, .neither is it
criminal te make use et a store of wine
en hand, before the days of the law.
"We are facing a serious social con
dition, especially se far as our young
people nre concerned. The liquor is
carried about by them In the open, In
a spirit of bravado. It has become n
moral menace. It behooves Christian
people rig'i: new te take the side of
law and eiuer. Admittedly the young
people are bad enough, but their chief
aim is te make us .think that they are
worse than they are. They arc undls
cinlined. I believe that manv of them.
however, when they grew up, will make
better parents than we have. I hope
se, at least."
Against Prayer Boek Change
The Blshen declared that In Ms rstl.
matlen the diocesan convention, ns nt
present related te the general cenven
tien, carries very little weight in the
asaira of the church. He said : "What
is the function of the diocesan cenven?
tien? I sunest that the various dle
ceses, through their conventions, bring
up we question rer decision at the next
general convention.
"My preposition Is thbi, he said.
mac- no constitutional change or
prayer doek revision should be passed
upon, or perhaps even Introduced Inte
a general convention, unless first voted
upon and passed by the majority of
aieceses. At present, tne general con
ventien is net a competent body te
deal with such a thing as the reports of
the prayer book commission. &a tar
as the report just published, the third,
or tne prayer doek commission, I myself
am reaay te vote te lay the report en
the table. Or, in any case, te vote
that nothing new be considered unless
It can be concluded in the convention
lu 1025.
"Twelve years Is loe lone a time for
'changes.. Six hundred) men debate
questions, nnd it takes two meeting)
of the General Convention te make the
changes discussed.
Ministers Exceed Rights
"As things are new, I find the clergy
making nny changes they want them
selves, even though at their ordination
there nre previsions which provide that
they shall be responsible for no hangc
of doctrine. I wonder if these clergy
realize hew closely tbey arc scrutin
ized, and hew hard It is for their
parishioners te remain loyal in the face
of their idiesyncracies."
Referring te the recent nrnnnnprl
change, in dropping the obedience pro pre
vision In the marriage ceremony, Bishop
Matthews suggested sarcastically that
the emission was a bit mere than a
mere chance of emphasis. He nlse
criticized the prayer book commission,
nnd its desire te dispense with pnrt of
the baptismal rites. That tne, he said,
was mere than a change of emphasis.
That It was the voice of Esau, but
the hand of Jacob. "The state of mliwi
of the prayer book commission and the
work they alive done. leads nm tn im.
live they have been willing te accept ul ul
mest anything."
The convention will last two days. At
the meeting this afternoon reports will
be read en the cathedral foundation.
There will nlse be an address by Alfred
Newberry. The official dinner will he
'tonight in the parish house of St.
Paul's.

McClenahan Frem Chair,
Says Prof. Causs
ACTED UNDER FACULTY
COMMITTEE INSTRUCTIONS
Heward McClenahan, dean of the
college at Princeton University, yes
terday denied thraiigh the Director of
Public Relations that there was an
'erganlied movement by the alumni te
oust him from his chain
It was reported that lliOOO Prince
ton graduates vere planning tn demand
Dean McClenahan's resignation because
of methods alleged te have been used
in. connection with the disqualification
of three team captains.
The Princeton dean was busy with
his various administrative duties yes
terday afternoon when asked for an in
terview and apologized for bis lack of
time. He appeared anxious and will
ing te explain the truths of the eligi
bility upheaval and summoned Prof.
Christine Gauss, who directs the pub
licity of the university.
"Prof. Gauss knows the case thor
oughly," said the dean, "and will tell
all tne facts. Anything he says docs
net have te be verified by me."
Summary of Facta
Prof. Gauss then made a complete
resume of the situation nnd neinlptl
out with emphasis several important
points. Here is a summary of Xacts he
presented :
First. Talk by members of the
alumni concerning the suggested res
ignation of Dean McClenahan has
been by Individuals nnd net by the
spokesman of any large group.
Second. Criticism of the dean
has been unjust becnuse he acted
under Instructions of the Faculty
Committee en Outdoor Sports. Ifa
criticism is made it should be di
rected at the entire committee, which
includes Dr. Hibben, the president,
nnd net nt the individual.
Third. The dlsqunlincatlon.ef the
athletes was made, net by Princeton
but by the Committee of Three
Chairmen, which passes en the eligi
bility of students for Princeton,
Harvard and Ynlc. However, the
investigation was started and the
names of the athletes placed before
the tri -council by the Princeton Fac
ulty Committee.
Fourth.' The action of Dean Mc
Clenahan or of the Faculty Commit
tee was net hurried. The move was
made after sixty hours of delibera
tion and investigation.
Fifth. Princeton did net ask that
'the athletes be disqualified. Twe
interpretations were given by the
Faculty Committee te the rule gev-
