PASTOR ACCUSED

Lutheran Synod Says Trial
Will Go Forward Despite
Resignation.
By the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
PITTSBURGH, J-ne 11.-Facing
trial on heresy charges before the
Pittsburgh Synod of the Evangelical
Lutheran Church, Rev. DR.. Frank
Edwin Smith, pastor of the Luther
Memorial Church here, announced his
resignation as a minister Of that de-
nomination late today.
Synod officers said the resignation
would not be acted upon, and that the
heresy trial would be held IS sched-
uled during the meetings at Rochester,
Pa. next week.
First I'm History.
In his resignation, effective June
10, DR.. Smith said he would not ap-
pear at Rochester for the trial. He
was cited by a synod committee for
assailing orthodox doctrines in his
sermons.
Rev. Dr. Ellis B. Burgess. presi-
dent of the synod, said that the trial
would proceed and that the judgment
of the ministers forming the trial
board would be announced despite
the resignation. 1t will be the first
heresy trial in the history of the
church.
Claims Action Irregular.
DR.. Smith, in resigning, claimed
that the proceedings against him
were irregular and not within the
constitution of the church. He said
he had no further desire to remain
in the church. adding that while his
ministry. from a standpoint of theol-
Ogy. was not acceptable to some
members of the synod, it was &C.
ceptable to his own congregation.
Il claim" he said, Ito be in har-
mony with the spirit of Luther, who
made religion vital for his age, and I
have tn. consciousness TIT / have
followed the spirit of Jesus and have
been in harmony with his way. =
