DISCIPLES BRANDED
AS "A TOUGH LOT"
Bishop Doubts if Peter, James or
John Could Get Into Illi-
nois Conference.
BY the Associated Press

BY the Associated Press.
DECATUR, ILL.,, September 2l.-
Bishop Edgar Blake of indianapolis,
presiding at the annual Illinois Con-
ference of Methodist Episcopal Churches,
stripped some Of the saintliness from
Christ's IL disciples in an address be-
fore the Methodist Laymen's Conference
today.
Apologizing for the ruthless manper
in which he assailed the disciples and
offering to halt his talk If the laymen
wished-he was not interrupted
Bishop Blake averred that the disciples
were not saints. but were "a tough lot
Of Gallilean fishermen, who quarreled
and swore and were self-seekers" He
said the first thing they said when they
forsook their boats and approached
Jesus was, What are we going to get
out of this?"
Bishop Blake declared the disciples
even quarreled and cursed among them
selves on the way to Gethsemane, and
he surprised the laymen by observing
II don't believe Peter, James or John
could get into the Illinois Conference"
The bishop said the disciples deserted
Christ at the crucifixion, but went on
to say that after the resurrection, when
Jesus called for them to come to Him,
they were repentant and redeemed
themselves.
