REVISION OF The FAITH
COMMITTEE MAKES MAJORITY AND
MINORITY REPORT.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 14-The Presby-
tellan committee which has been consiG-
ering the revision of the Westminster
confession of faith, today completed It's
recommendations to the general assem-
bly,. The committee has unanimously
agreed that some change in the credal
statement is necessary, but is divided
as to the character of this change, and
majority and minority reports will be
presented to the general assembly. There
were thirteen of the sixteen members
present, and majority agreed to recon-
mend that the change made should be a
supplemental explanatory statement to
cover certain points in the confession of
faith, and to include statement of doc,
hines of the Holy Spirit, missions and
the love of God for all men. The re-
port of the minority will recommend a
supplementary explanation of doctrine
without being restricted to specific and
limited points in the confession, but in
entire harmony with the system of doc
trine contained in the creed
The committee then adjourned sine die
and no further meetings are anticipated
before the meeting of the general as
sembly next May, when it probably viii
be dissolved.
