WORK FOR HARMONY
COMMITTEE 1NDEAvoRs TO HEAL
EASTERN cHyRCH WOUNDS.
DR.. Easton's oher TO Resign November
l, In Interest of Peace, Not
Voted Upon.

The committee Of visitation, appointed
under the laws OF the Presbyterian Church
by the pFesbytery Of Washington to en-
deavor to harmonize the two factions in the
Eastern Presbyterian Church. corner of 9Th
street and Maryland avenue northeast, has
held two meetings in the church and will
hold another next Wednesday evening. So
far the efforts Of the committee, Of which
Rev. DR.. Teunis g. Hamlin. pastor of the
Church of the Covenant, Is chairman, have
rot brought about the desired result.
Rev. DIR. Thomas c. Easton, pastor of the
church, 1t is said, over whose retention the
trouble arose. has offered to leave at any
time If by doing so he could heal the breach
IN the congregation, and the members Of
the committee after consultation with rep
resentatfves of both factions recommended
with Dr. Easton's consent, that he remain
as pastor until November 1, and should
tfen retire. The members of the commit
tee believe that with the object of the trou-
BILE no longer in the church the opposing
sides can easily agree to let the controversy
drop.
The statement was emphatically made
by DR.. Hamlin at the Wednesday night
meeting that the committee had found no
reason to believe any accusations against
the pastors personal character or behavior
were sufficient reasons for an investigation
DR.. Easton's personal record was cleared
so far as the committee was concerned.
1t was on account of disposition on the
part Of some of the congregation to regard
the report as favorable to the minority and
not fairly in the interest of harmony that
the committee decided not to ask for vote
on its recommendation Wednesday even
ing. The vote will be taken next Wednes-
day evening, according to the present plans.
DR.. Hamlin's Statement.
Referring to the interviews the commit
tee has had with representatives Of the two
factions as we'll as with the pastor, Dr.
Hamlin said Wednesday night:
I'm these interviews there was nothing
whatever in the nature of an investigation.
No charges were made; no accusations
were made; nothing was said of that nature
at all. We simply proceeded with the mat
ter as we are proceeding tonight to repre-
sent to you our sense of the necessity to
let bygones be bygoneS. If you stop just
where you stand, you can turn about and
make a new start in the interests of the
unity, peace and future of the Eastern
Church
I'VE believed said he, again, in regard
to the request of the committee of pres
bytery for the power of visitation instead
of investigation, land still believe, that an
Investigation is not what you need, and
we hope not what you want"
Each of the members of the committee
spoke in the interest of harmony, and at
the close of the meeting DR.. Easton again
expressed his desire for the peace of the
church above his own welfare, Offering
again to resign at any time.
