ATTACKED
Church That Will Not Fight
for Flag Denounced-DeIay
Pastors Pay Raise

SPRINGFIELD, Mass, May 16.
The radical anti.war resolution,
recommended to the Methodist Gen.
eral Conference by the committee
on state OF the church, was bitterly
assailed today by William H. Van
Benschoten, lay delegate from New
York. He declared the resolution
II adopted, would throw the Amer
lean flag from the churches, and
said tnat an organization which
will not fight to defend its country
when assaulted cannot live and
work beneath the folds of its flag.
The resolution denounces war and
places the church on record as I'M
willing to engage In 1t.
Judge Henry M. Rogers Of New
York, chairman Of the committee
on judiciary, presented q report
sustaining the constitutionality Of
the area system.
A request for ruling had been
submitted by the California confer.
ence and the committee made a
thorough study of the relation Of
the plan to the laws Of the church.
This decision by the committee
coupled with the report Of the
committee on Ep1scopacy against
adjustment of the system will
tend to make the area system the
rule Of the church for a long time
to come.
