PRESBYTERIANS
SHOW LIBERALI7Y
Ruling Boards May Use
Wine or Grape Juice at
Communion Service.
CONVERT COSTS $50
Opponents of Million for Foreign
Missions Say Money Could
Better Be Used in
United States.

Kansas City, May 27.-Commission-
ers to the general assembly of the
Presbyterian church (Southern), in
session here, who are inclined tc
hold liberal views, assert that several
actions taken by the assembly are
victories for their wing Of the church
They point to the action yesterday
in allowing the ruling boards OF the
various churches to choose between
fermented wine and grape juice for
use in communion services as a great
step in advance.
"Some years ago a minister who
would dare vary the communion SER
vice a particle would be liable for
trial before his presbytery," said Rev
Chas. r. Nisbet, pastor of the Central
Presbyterian church of Kansas City.
1t is also said that the approval OF
the overture from the council OF the
reformed churches in America, look
ing to closer relations and more effec-
tive administrative cooperation be-
tween the several. Presbyterian and
reformed churches represented in the
council, signifies a breaking away
from the ultra-conservative spirit
which has dominated the church.
The disagreement which threatened
between the women's council and the
general assembly also attracted atten-
ton to that part of the church mem
bership which, it was declared, does
most of the work of the church and
receives the least credit-the women.
The recommendation of the system
ATTIC beneficence committee in making
for million dollars for foreign mis-
sions may be opposed by the advo-
Gates of home missions on the ground
that such an amount could be better
invested in the United States.
An interesting feature of the dis
cussion of the home mission report
was figures given to the session by
Rev. H. M. PRESLEY of Charlotte, N
IC., who says the cost to win one con-
vert in the home mission field is $50
that churches spend $270 for every
man, woman and child converted.
