SERMON ATTACKS
VIRGIN BIRTH

PHILADELPHIA. Pa, Oct. IS
The Presbytery OF Philadelphia has
sent a formal protest TO the General
Assembly OF the Presbyterian Church
against the kind OF preaching in
the First Presbyterian Church in
New York. preaching said 70 be
against the Presbyterian confession
OF faith. The Rev. Dr. Clarence Ed
ward Mccartney, pastor OF the Arch
Street Presbyterian Church, spur
red his colleagues here into action.
The Rev. DR.. Harry Emerson Fos-
dick is pastor OF the New York
church, but his name Is not men
toned in the protest, or overture,
as Il Is technically known. Strangely
enough, Mr.. Fosdick Is not Pres
bvterian. but a Baptist clergyman,
and for eleven years occupied a
Baptist pulpit in the fashionable
New York suburb OF Montclair, y. j..
He IS also professor Of practical the
ology in the Union Theological Sem
mary in New York. Raymond B.
Fosdick, associated with John d.
RockefelleY, Jr., and recently men
toned as a possible head for the
University Of Chicago. is a brother.
The overture. or resolution, was
adopted by the Presbytery at a
stormy session last Monday after
noon in Chambers-Wylie Memorial
Presbyterian Church. The Presby-
terlan Church has no jurisdiction
over a Baptist minister, but DR..
Mccartney and his adherents oon-
tend that the general assembly has
jurisdiction over the kind OF SER
mons that shall be delivered from
Presbyterian pulpits.
DIR. Fosdick preached a sermon
entitled, Shall the Fundam entalists
VIM" In the First Presbyterian
Church. New York. last May, and
that sermon which has been widely
commented upon in the church
press. has given offense to many
Presbyterians. DR.. FosdiclS was
principally interested IN dealing a
blow to the Fundamentalists. who
have been creating an uproar in the
Baptist denomination. but IN doing
so he spoke in a disparaging man
ner OF the Immaculate conception,
one of the cardinal doctrines OF the
Presbyterian confession OF faith.
DR.. Mccartney first brought the
Fosdick sermon 10 the attention OF
the Presbytery two weeks ago at a
meeting at Lindenhurst, John Wan
amaker's country residence. near
.Jenkintown. No action was taken,
but members Of the PTesbytery were
notified that DR.. Macartney's
charges would be considered at an
adjourned meeting IN Chambers
Wylie Church on october 16.
Efforts have been made to sur
round the proceedings OF the ad-
1ourned meeting with the strictest
secrecy. but It Is known that DR..
Mccartney presented his case and
that n debate fairly ragged more
than three hours before the resolu-
ton was finally adopted.
DR.. Macartney's charges against
DR.. Fosdick and his sermon have
been published IN tract form under
the title "shail Unbeiief VIM A
Reply TO DR.. Fosdick."
In that tract DR.. Mccartney out |
lines his case against DIR. Fosdiok as
follows:

Tor the way In which Christ came

him is merely an effort on the part

OF the character and person OF

DR.. Mccartney then quotes a pass

gist OF which is that It was quite
common in ancient times 20 credit
the founder OF religion with super
natural birth. that being done in the
case OF Buddha, Zoroaster, Lao
Tsze and Mahavira. He quotes DR..
Fosdick as saying that the first dis
ciples OF Jesus did the same with
His birth and "phrased It in terms Of
a biological miracle that our mod
ern minds cannot use" lie says that
St Paul and st. John never even
distantly allude 10 the virgin birth. Z"
This speaks for ITSELF" DR.. Ma
cartney says in his tract. and then
goes on TO show what would follow
IL the virgin birth were not accept
ed. The opening chapters OF st.
Matthew and St. Luke are pure
myth, he says and the alleged facts
and acts OF those pages are merely a
pious. devout and natural effort Of
believing men TO account for the
personality OF Jesus. IN much tho
same. way that the followers OF
Buddha, Zoroaster. Lao-Tsze and
tried 10 account for them.
Not only does DR.. Fosdich repudi-
ate the virgin birth but he states
that opinions on the subject are of
little importance. in no way AFFECT
ing vital Christianity.
DR.. Fosdick is not a Presbyterian.
but he stands IN Presbyterian pull
pit and gets his bread from a Pres
byterian congregation. In view OF
this fact. how can his holding the
purely naturalistio account OF the
stories OF the birth OF Jesus be in
harmony with his preaching in the

AT its last regular meeting Benton
County Pomona condemns Senator
Miles Poindexter for his vote in the
Senator Newberry case and commend
ed Senator Wesley L. Jones by the
unanimous adoption of the following
resolution.
Whereas, 1t appears from the Journ-
ell of the minutes of the proceedings
of the U. S. Senate that Senator Miles
Poindexter cast his vote to sustain
one, Newberry, in the possession of a
seat in the Senate of this United
States, for which evidence was offered
in proof that the election of said New
berry had been obtained thru the
spending of large sums of money
therefor, and
Whereas, We, individually and col
lectively, condemn such methods where
ever used as being un-American and
not in conformity with the represent
ative and democratic form of govern
ment,
Therefore, be it resolved, and it is
hereby resolved by Benton County Po-
mona Grange No. 26 in regular ses-
sion assembled at Buena Vista Grange

this 11th day of February, 1922, that
it unanimously disapproyes of the ac-
ton taken by said Miles Poidexter

and that said Pomona Grange here
by goes on record as being un-equiv-
ocally against retaining in Office any
senator or other representative who
will use his vote or influence toward
the carrying out of any such program
as the evidence offered proved the

recommended that the club get be-

scription. BY unanimous vote the
club endorsed the project and recon-
mended it to the membership as
worthy OF support. Mr.. Stafford and

The plant which is to be built as
one unit of much larger one win
cost $4,000 and will have storage
capacity of 100 cars of boxed apples
1t is estimated that it will mean q
net annual saving of $4,000 to local
growers who are now forced TO usa
outside storage. The use of the plant
will not be limited to members of tbe
association but they will have first
call on the available space.

Succeed Fraser

Kennewick's annual school election
will be held Saturday, March A. The
polls will be open from 1 until z p. m.
This year the voting for the entire
district will be at the city hall in
stead of the High school building.
One director is to be chosen for a
term of three years to succeed Clerk
F. L. Fraser whose term as director
expires. Mr.. Fraser who is confined
to his home by illness informed the
Courier-Reporter by telephone today
that he will be candidate for re-
election. AS far as it is known now
there will be little or no opposition
to Mr.. Fraser as there is no other
public declaration of candidacy.
While it is probable that special
tax levy will have to be voted this
year to meet the necessary school ex-
penses no taxation proposition will be
submitted at this time.

Indications are that Smith
McNary Bill Will Pass
This Session
SUPPORT is PLEDGED
BY SECRETARY FALL
Kennewick Project will be
One of First to Get the
Funds Under 1t

Prospects became brighter for the
early construction of the Kennewick
Highline Irrigation project the last Of
the week when Secretary Fall, of the
interior department, announced his en-
dorsement of the Smith-McNary bill
which the senate republican steering
committee has placed on the republic
an program for action during the pre-
sent session of congress.
Secretary Falls endorsement is said
by Senator McNary to insure admins
tration support for the measure and
President Harding is expected soon to
send special message to congress
urging the speeding up Of reclamation
Legislation.
Almost simultaneous with Secretary
Falls endorsement of the Smith-Mc-
Nary bill, Senator Poindexter intro
duced as an amendment to the inter-
ior department appropriation bill his
bill, offered some time ago, appropri-
ating 100000 for speeding up work
on established irrigation projects in
the west. More than $7,000,000 of this
amount would go to projects in Ore
gon, Washington and Idaho and would
provide for the construction of the
Kennewick Highline as one unit Of the
Yakima project.
Senator Poindexter announced that
if he failed to induce the appropria-
tions committee to accept this amend
ment he would offer it again on the
floor of the senate.
1t is the opinion of those in touch
with the situation that if the Smith
McNary bill passes, Senator Poindex-
ter's proposed amendment would not
be given favorable consideration.
If the Smith -McNary bill does not
pass in substantially its present form
there is little doubt that the Kenne-
wick project will be one of the first
to receive moneys under its terms.
This project has been fully surveyed,
plans for the irrigation system have
been drawn, the district has been
formed, bonds have been voted, and
the project in all its details has been
fully approved by the U. S. Reclama-
ton service. It's development will
place under irrigation $4,000 acres of
land tributary to Kennewick.
