Church Group Wants
 Cannon Resignation

Newman, Ga. June 2S Pl- Resolutions asking the immediate resignation of Bishop James Can non, Jr., of the Methodist Episco- pal church, south, have been adopted at the quarterly confer ence of the First Methodist church here.
 There was only one dissenting vote on the resolutions which were offered by R. o. Jones, lay man. Objection to the white washing of charges against the bishop at the general conference in Dallas was included in the res olutions.

The con- ference was held Wednesday.

ing conditions bad They were allowed

The Reds. the message related, de-
lnanded Catholics here send medicines
and medical instruments to Khan for

Ing held in Communist resort in the
