ly goes on record in q reaffirmation
Of belief in every assertion of the
Apostles creed, making such belief
and teaching obligatory upon every
deacon, priest Of bishop" of the
church.
Laymen throughout the country
petitioned the house that men In
high places have brought confusion
by apparent uncertainties OF belief
and hsd asked for reassurarces con-
corning what were declared funda-
mentals Of the christian faith, The
virgin birth, the incarnation and the
bodily resurrection of Christ.
Will End Controversy .,s
The pronounc6hent was expected
by those close X to house members
here today to terminate the con-
troversial situation in which the
Rev. Percy SticknsyT Grant pfS New

before the, spotlight of public and
denominations concern.
There is nothing new In the sit
uation and / have nothing to say
Bishop William T. Manning OF New

ed for statement regarding his part
in the controversy in which he and
DR.. Grant have figured so promi-
nently. .u...
Objections to the doctrine OF
the virgin birth, or to the bodily
resurrection OF our Lord Jesus
Christ are not only contrary to the
christian tradition, but have been
abundantly dealt with by the best
scholarship Of the day" an out
