THE CHILDREN's BUREAU.
The bill to create a children's bu-

Rev. Torrey Does Not Discriminate.
Editor of the Sentinel:
On my return to-Norwnik last Sat-
urday after a week’s absence from
town, I was much surprised that any
minister should hnIve given to‘ the press
a. report of the advisory meeting held
in connection with plans for the Home
for the Aged. Personally. i do not
feel at liberty to make public the pro-‘
ceedings of such meetings: but i do
protest at the distorted representa-
tion of my attitude.
My position was not one of discrinr
inatlon against the Roman Catholics,
but-simply a matter of business hon-
esty on the part or the Home Chapter
of King's Daughters. Money had been
collected from numerous persons for
a Protestant home.’ Such money corfd
not honestly be used for any other put"
pose. if it was desired to change the
character of the organization after
such funds had been collected, the
King‘s Daughters should either refund.
or offer to refund, the money to these
who had contributed. _
i am surprised to hear of this meet-
ing as a “battle royal V l was obliged
to leave for another engagement be-
fore the rest of my brethren. and if
any battle occurred. it was some other
minister who was involved. ‘
