SALVATION ARMY
ONE-MAN CONTROL. v fjnited Press Association —By EJjctrio Telegrapli—Copyright). LONDON, Jan. 2. Considerable interest is being taken over the Salvation Army High Council. The friends of General Booth declare that his illness does not prevent carrying out his duties, and furtheimore that there is no avowed rival in the field for the headship. On the other hand, another section holds that the day of one-man control of the Army’s constitution must ho overhauled. It would appear, at present, that the opinion of the delegates is more or less equally divided. Miss Evangeline Booth, sister of General Booth, who came over from Ncav York, has thus far been unable to sec her brother. She declares that if the Council decides that General Booth is lit to continue in office, she must accept that position, but she adds: “Other issues would then arise.’’ Tn any case it will be impossible for the Council to separate without coming to a decision.
