Senator Perkins Makes
Argument for
Dr.. Crapsey

Batavia, N. Y. April 27.-The testi-
nlony in the case of the heresy trial Of
DR.. Crapsey was concluded today and
the arguments Of counsel begun.
Franklin d. Lock for the prosecution
contended that Crapsey's failure to
abide implicitly by the written law
OF the church warranted his expulsion.
Senator Perkins. counsel for DR..
Crapsey, in his defense. said that II the
theory Of the prosecution was COR
rect, that any deviation from the literal
significance Of any phrase in the book
Of common prayer would cause the ex-
pulsion Of the offender. He described
the changes in belief during the past
fifty years and declared that today
there was not minister in the church
that believed that the earth was creat-
ed In six days.
The counsel for the defense contend
ed that the contention Of the prosecu-
tion was a direct violation of the vow
that each should study the scripture
for himself and interpret 1t not ac-
cording to what he is told but by his
own conclusions.
According to the presentment Of
the prosecution" said Senator Per-
kins, "Dr. Crapsey must break this
