ACTION TAKEN
BY CONVENTION

Jacksonville, Fla, May ,1S ;(By the
Associated Press).-The' Southern
Baptist convention today instructed
Fits education board to provide text
books on science "free from erron-
eous statements on evolution" ad-
mitted women to membership on it's
boards and It's legislative committees
and adopted resolutions congratulate.
ing President Harding and Secretary
Hughes for their work at tha Wash
ington arms conference and their in
fiuence toward international peace.
The greater part of the day was
given over to reports on home edu-
cation and foreign missions, both of
which showed increased growth. In
the afternoon missionaries on leave
told of their experiences and the eve
ming session was devoted chiefly to
presentation of the 46 young men
and women who have just been as
signed to foreign missions.
Adoption of the recommendation
regarding evolution does not mean, it
was said by officers, that belief on
that subject will be made test of
orthodoxy, and DR.. Hugh I. Moore,
Nashville, senior recording secretary,
explained that it might be possible
that some members believe that God
chose to create man through evolu-
tion and theistic evolution. Presi-
dent E. Y. Mullins of Louisville, who
is also head of the Southern Baptist
Theological seminary, gave an Off
hand opinion that no test of ortho-
doxy was intended. Efforts to "right-
ly" relate science to the Bible" were
asked in the report of the education
board, both of which were adopted.
The recommendation presented by the
Rev. j. w. Gillon of Mayfeld, KY,
chairman, termed Darwin's theory of
evolution mot science at all, but just
theory" 1t declared that "in view
of the fact that the claim is being
constantly, and without justification
made that textbooks can not be found
for the departments of science free
from erroneous statements with ref
erence to evolution, that our educa-
tion board begin at once to seek for
Christian scientists, who will prepare
textbooks for all departments OF
science which viii rightly relate
science to the. Bible and set forth the
fact that the maiQrityfof The aroat-
'sst men q scisnts hive 'iep6diats5d
Darwinism; except as an unproven
working hypothesis. This, Of course,
means that it is not science at all,
but theory"
Praise for President Harding and
Secretary Hughes was given in the
following resolutions presented by
the Rev. Henry Allen Tupper of
Washington:
"We, the members of the South
ern Baptist convention in session at
Jacksonville, May, 18, 1922, desire
to express our high appreciation of
these services Of our Baptist breth-
rem, Warren G. Harding, president
of the United States, and Charles E.
