The Washington times., 1927-07-21

consider a report of committee Of
the Council of Baptist Ministers of
the District, drawn up at a meeting
Tuesday night in Calvary Baptist
Church. The report recommended
that DR.. Lawson's resignation be de-
manded on grounds OF general unfit
ness for office.
It is cited in the report that since
DIR. Lawson took the pastorate of
the church seven years ago the con-
gregation has dwindled from 375 to
about 125 members.
The impression has spread in the
ueighborhood that last nights meet
ing would be open to the public, and
when the session was called to order
approximately 800 persons were in
the church.
1t was discovered that only about
100 of them were members Of the
congregation.
Efforts were made to eject the
unwelcome visitors. The task was
found to be too great for the church
officers and a call was sent to the
Ninth precinct for police. Lieut..
Gustave Lauten, with a sergeant. a
precinct detective. and three pri-
Yates responded and supervised the
election of non-members.
Many of those sent out of the
little church gathered in a knot
around the doors and attempted to
hear the proceedings.

REV. LAWSON To
QUIT CHURCH

Desperate efforts to hush up the
story behind the resignation of
Rev. Henry M. Lawson, of the
Maryland Avenue Baptist Chruch,
and a group OF his deacons. agreed
upon at a stormy session of the
church which did not break up until
2 o'clock this morning, are being
made today by all the parties con-
cerned.
The designations will bring to an
end a six-year fight in the church
which is alleged to have eliminated
in a near-riot early yesterday, even.
ing when nearly 200 persons were
elected from the church under the
watchful eyes of detail of police.
Refuses to See Press
Or. Lawson today refused to see
reporters. At his home, 1914 Tenth
st. n. W., it was stated that he has
been planning to resign for some
time. Friction between the pastor
and members of his flock is blamed
for the schism which has split the
little church.
Members of the congregation also
refused to discuss the case. It was
stated today that the first action
taken at last nights meeting was
the adoption of an iron-clad resolu-
ion binding every person in the
church TO absolute secrecy regarding
every phase of the matter.
The pledge of secrecy also has
been extended outside the church.
The Rev. H. w. o. Millington,
executive secretary of the Columbia
Association of Baptist Churches, at
the Baptist headquarters in the
Woodward Building, also refused to
see reporters and left orders for
members of his staff to say nothing
about the case.
Not Permitted to Talk
This Is matter between DIR.
Lawson and members of his con-
gregation and we will have nothing
to say unless we are authorized to
make statement" it was stated by
one of DR.. Millington's assistants.
Last nights session at the church
vas a stormy affair, 1t was reported
today.
One young woman. her dress torn
and her face and body bruised, be-
came hysterical and rushed from
the church during the melee, 1t was
stated. Her name was not learned.
DIR. Lawson is expected to resign
on or before September 1 and the
deacons probably will give up their
offices at the same time.
The feeling against DR.. Lawson
came to head following a recent
sermon which was considered ''un-
Christian" by the board of deacons,
and as q result of charges of
moral turpitude he is said to have
made against an unnamed girl men,
Der of his congregation.
These charges he withdrew last
night after the congregation had
refused to sustain them.
The girl was completely exoner.
ated by last nights action, it was
said.
