Plans Diacussed for Further Coop
Grafton In Latin America.

Sixty-hve men and women who took
part In the recent Panama Missionary
Congress dlned together last night at
tho Hotel 81. Denis and made plans FOR
further cooperation OF Protestant
churches OF the United States and
Canada with Protestant Christians in
Latin America. Local committees have
been formed in Peru. Chile, the Argentine
and Brazil.
Robert T.. Speer presided last night
and speakers included the new Metho-
dist Bishop. the Rev. DR.. William +.
Oldham the Rev. S. O. lnman. the Rev.
DR.. l.. c.. Barnes and the Misses Hodge
and Spencer. The Rev. Or. A. w. Hal
sey. the Rev. Or. l.. G. Barnes and
Joseph l.. McAfee told of prospects fol-
lowing the local conferences in Latin
American countries, Lay speakers In
Guided James II. Post. Eben T.. Olcott
and =. Earl Taylor. The Episcopal
board by official action has cut itself
off from cooperation, but Il was reported
that all other Protestant churches are
working in harmony.

No Attempt to Compel Action.

The commission Tof nineteen OF the
National Council determined that Il
would not attempt TO make the creed
anything other than one 10 fit It's original
plan. namely. n br!ef section of the con
s'iiut!on Of the National Council. and
that any other use must be Incidental
II determined TO keep itself free from
any suspicion OF attempting TO make a
creed for NE denomination but IL saw
quite clearly that q II should succeed In
making n creed comprehensive enough
FOR the National Council the dcnom!na-
ton woull be practically certain TO make
other uses Of it
Perhaps the distinctive feature of the
Kansas City statement OF faith Is best
summed up by the observation of the
Rev. Nehemiah Boynton. ID. n. pastor
Of the Clinton Avenue Congregational
Church. Brooklyn.
The Kansas city declaration differs
from other statements OF belief by the
fact that II is not a series OF creedal
articles says Or. Boynton. 1T is
simply an inclusive statement OF the
essential things most surely believed by
Christians, II II having a remarkable
influence"

that with some general idea Of the man

to build up a Shakespeare from his
