LEADERS AT CALVARY
CHURCH REPUDIATED
Fifth Avenue Baptist Congrcga-
ton to Consider Merger
Tonight.
LOOK FOR RESERVATIONS

Tho Fifth Avenue aptlst Church con-
gregation at a meeting tonight will con-
slider the resolutions adopted by the Cal
vary Baptist congregation on Monday
night relating to the proposed merger OF
the two congregations. The substance Of
these resolution was made public yester-
day and they repudiate in effect two Of
Calvary's leaders so emphatically that 1t
is thought that they will resign
One official OF Calvary Baptist Church
yesterday said Joseph NJ. Lesser and J.
Griffin Daughtry havc been trying to run
the affairs OF Calvary Church They have
indeed been trying 10 do so for years.
Recently they tried also to run the affairs
OF the Fifth avenue church and now both
OF them have been repudiated"
The resolutions passed sy Calvary
Church are long. In substance they say
That the Fifth Avenue congregation Is
hereby informed that the feeling In Cal
vary congregation remains unchanged.
and Is the same as IT was when the mer-
ger was first proposed
That a feeling of cordial fellowship has
been awakened In Calvary congregation
toward the Fifth Avenue people, grow
ing out Of the temporary merger.
That Calvary entertains a high regard
for the Rev. DR.. Woelfkin as cultured
and inspiring preacher and that after
hearing him for some months Calvary Is
willing 10 accept him as pastor.
That Calvary has visions OF the great
possibilities OF missionary endeavor grow
ing out OF the union OF strength of the
two great churches. And therefore,
Resolved, That 1t is Calvary's convic-
tion that the plan OF agreement for ANAL
gamation OF the two churches be referred
in its entirety to the Fifth Avenue congre-
cation.
Joseph NJ. Lesser was named on
Calvary's original reference. committee
but under adverse criticism he resigned and
was replaced by the Rev Dr. James g.
Calvert. Baptist clergyman without
pastoratc. At the Monday night meeting
Mr.. Lesser interrupted the Rev. DR. Mac
Arthur, hut in his appeal against the
pastor emeritus he vas defeated by a
vote OF 800 to 10. In his second appeal
asking the adoption OF the report OF the
special committee against the merger he
was defeated by 295 to To-
David c. Link of the board OF trustees
OF Calvary Church yesterday said:
The union OF Calvary and Fifth Ave-
nue. churches Is still open. and so far as
Calvary is concerned IL has not adopted
a resolution condemning the merger. The
whole matter now rests with the Fifth
Avenue people I hope any differences in
our ranks will be passed over by the
Fifth Avenue people and forgotten. The
possibilities OF two large churches like
Calvary and Fifth Avenue combining for
work are great indeed

b. +. IOAKUM IN THE DARK

Details Of a proposed plan for the re-
organization OF the st. Louis and San
Francisco Railroad Company-,F'risco
system-were received with interest in
the financial district yesterday and were
generally interpreted as another evidence
that confidence was to a certain extent
returning. The reports from st. Louis
said the plan contemplates an assessment
OF from $3.50 to SIS a share on the
stock and that it was believed this would
add at least 100000 to the treasury
OF the company.
The plan was said TO be that OF n. T.

plan was not his and that he had never

serted the plan was essentially the one
proposed by Mr.. Yoakum several months
ago.
