Chicago, June s. Professor George
B. Foster, whose writings denouncing
as & a bitter Indictment Of the Chris

cism." have narrowed the clergy Of
Chicago, was called upon by Rev.
Johnston Meyers, pastor of the I'm.
manuel Baptist church, to withdraw
from the Baptist ministry. The fire
OF criticism was directed chiefly at
Professor Fosters recent book, The
Function of Religion y, The motion
requesting Professor Fosters withe
drawal was put before several hun-
dred preachers and church iaymen
gathered at the conference Of the Bap-
list executive council, and only the
objection Of one man, Professor A. Is.
Parker. who like Professor Foster is
an instructor at the University OF

family.
1t was after Professor Foster had
Been characterized as ian undesirable
Baptist and as teacher who would
dethrone the church and defy eyolu-

from the councils Of the denomina-
ton was made. @
When the motion was made to ex-

After the meeting DR.. Parker stated
that whatever action might be taken
by the preachers would not affect the
professors connection with the Uni
versity of Chicago in the least.
.'This conference has nothing to do
/ with the university" he said. Two
thirds of the university's trustees are
Baptist laymen, but they could not
vote to expel a member of the faculty
