first named handles 100000 a year

Sl-uu,tu0 a year. Baptists lean to-
ward consultations nowadays. Union
of these agencies has been sought
for almost fought for. for upwards
OF two decades. At the meeting just
held the conservatives won. and con-
solldatlon was turned down. Those
who favor conditions remaining as
they are say the project is dead. but
those who seek union say it is not.
The trouble is over the strength of
