VOTE FOR DEAC0NESSES
New York Presbyterians Ap-
prove General Assembly Plan.

New York Presbyterians voted yes
terday TO provide for deaconesses IN
their form of government. This ac-
ton was taken at the January meet
ing of the Presbytery, when 1t was
recommended that the following over
ture of the Presbyterian General AS
sembly be adopted:
"Deaconesses may be elected 10
office in manner similar TO that ap-
pointed for deacons and set apart by
prayer. They shall be under the su-
pervision of the session, and their
duty shall be indicated by that body"
Before this amendment is written
into their constitution II must be
passed by the other 295 Presbyteries
of the Church.
Five theological students were re-
ceived as candidates for the Presby-
terrain ministry, among them David
Roswell Wylie, who is a sophomore at
Princeton Theological Seminary and a
son of DR.. David q. Wylie, for many
years pastor of the Scotch Presoy-
terrain Church. The others were James
G. Gilkey, Roy B. Chamberlain, Clar-
ence +. Carter and James Carney.
The name of the Rev. Gustavus
DAnchisi, who is studying for the
ministry Of the Episcopal Church, was
erased from the roll of the Presby-
terry. The Rev. ]. II. Colburn. the Rev.
Arthur Basham and the Rev. Robert
Watson were received from other
parts Of the country as members OF
the New York Presbytery. The last
Lamed is to become pastor OF the
Scotch Presbyterian Church, to sue
coed DR.. Wylie.

of a 9.000-mile scouting trip that he

CHURCH MERGER
PLAN in MIDDLE
Lively Meeting in Calvary
Fifth Avenues De-
mandS Turned Down.
FOUR POLICEMEN
STATIONED AT DOOR
Committee for Further Confer
ences Named-Seek Pastor
for Calvary.

Did we or didn't we vote in favor Of
permanent merger with the Fifth
Avenue Baptist Church. was the ques-
ton most of the members Of Calvary
Baptist Church were asking themselves
last night after a meeting called 20
settle the question. The question was
left open, with the broad hint thrown
in for the Fifth av. people that their
demands calling for the retirement OF
Joseph VI. Lesser, superintendent OF
the Bible school, and others, could not
be complied with.
The meeting, held in Calvary chapel,
was full of tension. Many wanted to
express their feelings about the de-
mands of the Fifth Az. people that
church officers vino have been opposed
10 the merger be forced into retire
ment. Before anything was said, all
newspaper representatives were asked
to withdraw. 1t was not necessary to
call in the four policemen stationed
outside the door to accomplish this
result. The newspaper folk graciously
withdrew.
Then just before the meeting ad-
journed a resolution was passed pledg-
ing those present not to tell the news
papers anything about what happened.
Just after the meeting adjourned one
of those present told all about IT.
DR.. Calvert presided, opened the
meeting with hymn, and then called
upon DR.. Robert S. Macarthur, former
pastor Of Calvary, who came all the
way from Baltimore, to conduct devo-
tional exercises. After reading the
122d Psalm, DR.. Macarthur began a
statement to the effect that he was not
there TO speak on either side OF the
controversy, but was for peace.
Mr. Lesser took every ones breath
away by raising the point Of order
that Dr. Macarthur had been invited
to conduct devotional exercises, and in
stead was speaking to the question OF
the evening. Then DR.. Wendell c.
Phillips moved that DR.. Macarthur be
allowed the privileges of the floor, a
motion unanimously carried. But DR..
Macarthur had little more TO say and
gave up the floor.
The merger committee then report
cd against making the temporary mer-
Cer permanent. This was accepted and
the committee discharged. But the
question of the merger was again
opened and left undecided.
A committee for further conference
was appointed, and also pulpit com
mite to look about for a pastor Tor
Calvary.
Mr. Lesser rose again and argued
against merger at all.
"The point is that Mr.. Lesser could
not be forced out of Office except under
charges, and as his services are salts
factory and ne won't resign it was i'm
possible for the Church to comply with
the Rockefeller crowds demands, al
though they are in favor of merger
The Tribune's informant explained
"That is what is meant by the state
ment it was impossible to guarantee
conditions of harmony.
"The situation now is the hint has
been given to the Fifth av. people, anc
it is up to them to take the definite
step. 1t is expected theywill vote against
the merger. That is what the pulpit
committee was appointed for-to find
a successor in Calvary for DR.. Woelf'
kim"
