DIR Collins Denny of the faculty of Van

this direction.

RESOLUTION IS ADOPTED
Proof Of Church Afiliation Sought
by Southern Conference.
RIGHT TO PASS ON TRUSTEES
College Systems Assurance of Fidel-
jority to Give Confidence.

The Baltimore conference of the Meth
odist Episcopal Church South. in ses-
sion in Mount Vernon Place Church. to-
day asserted it's positive desire that the
trustees change the charter of the
Randolph Macon College system to en-
body the fact of the relationship of the
institution to the Methodist Church, and
required that institution to submit to the
conference for approval the name of any
new trustee to be elected.
The question has been for months
troubling the church and college. and
many trustees of the system which in
cludes Randolph Macon College at Ash
land. Va, and the Randolph Ma con
academies at Bedford City and Front
Royal, Va, and the Woman's College
at L.ynchburg. Va, have for some time
been in favor of accepting the con-
ditions of the Carnegie foundation, 1t is
| asserted. and thereby making the educa-
tional system non-sectarian.
Assurances Not Satisfactory.
At recent meeting of the trustees
resolution was adopted. however. de-
claring allegiance to the Methodist Epis-
copa Church South and agreeing that
the Virginia and Baltimore conferences
of the church would be asked to sane
ton the selection of every new trustee.
The conference was not satisfied, how
ever. This fact was brought out strong
ly at the session this morning, which
was presided over by Bishop Hoss. The
conference was of opinion that the reso-
luton adopted by the board is all right
as far as it goes. but finds cause for
worry in the fact that the trustees vote
was close.
The conference would not take any
chances on any member of the board
changing his mind hereafter and. almost
without warning. have the board shift
from the patronage of the church to a
non-sectarian platform. The effect this
ultimatum will have on the trustees, 1T
is declared, can only be conjectured.
The resolution of today was passed
over some dissenting voters who desired
the adoption of resolution presented
by Rev. DIR. II. P. Hamll of Blacksburg.
Va, thanking the trustees for their ex-
pressed desire to remain loyal to the
Southern Methodist Church and for sub
hitting to the conference for approval
any new member who may be elected to
the body.
The resolution which was passed was
introduced by Or. Collins Denny of Van
derbilt University In an address he said
I'VE must not forget that We are deal
ing with sensible and determined men.
We are about to be swept out. This IS
no time for a backward step.
I'VE should say to the trustees: We re-
quest you to write in your charter what
you have adopted in resolutions.

Mr.. Roosevelt said that it must be
borne in mind even that the great end
in view was righteousness and he ex-
planned that peace, generally good in
itself, was never of the highest good

righteousness. It became very evil
