MODERNISM COUNT
| IN SPLIT IN Church
One of Causes of Differences
of Pastor and Congrega-
ton, He Says.
BY q star Correspondent Of The star.

CHERRYDAI.E, Va, August 22.-The
differences between Rev. Elmer Lucas
pastor, and n. Stewart Potter, Sunday
school superintendent of the cherrydale
Baptist Church, over the matter of pro-
ctirenient Of printing materials used by
the latter in q printing establishment
at the church, was but one OF several
contributing factors In the break In
the congregation. which resulted in the
pastor and IS members terminating
their connections with the church, It
was learned today.
It appears that the congregation has
been ct odds for quite some time over
the teachings of Mr.. Lucas. He had
been accused Of being too mcdernistic.
church, one stanchly standing by the
pastor and the other continually show
Ing evidences Of displeasure.
Pastor Exonerated.
This particular matter was threshed
out by the beard of deacons at D meet
ing held about month ago. At that
time Mr.. Lucas was exonerated, bui
some OF the members were still dis
satisfied, and when the dispute arose
between the pastor and Mr.. Potter the
division In the congregation. widened.
Mr.. Lucas still declined today to
comment as 30 the differences between
himself and Mr.. Potter. Asked about
the criticisms of the congregation with
respect to his teachings he said. The
question of the tempo of my teachings
Is D silly one. The truth Of the matter
Is that several members Of the board
Of deacons have been hostile and were
forever looking for something to knock
me In the head. In their search they
erasped q straw"
Details Of the trouble between the
pastor and Sunday school superintend-
emit, which have just come to light show
that Mr.. Lucas, without the consent Of
the hoard OF deacons advised the
authorities Of the Government Print
ing once, where Mr.. Potter was en-
ployed, that printing materials belong
ing to the Government were being used
In the church printing plant. A pre-
liminary Investigation was made by the
printing ONCE officials and Mr.. Potter
was suspended, pending a further In
vestigation by the public printer.
Those who are defending Mr.. Potter
and remaining In the church are con.
tending that MIR. Potter merely "bor.
rowed" the material, while Mr.. Lucas
and his followers claim that the ma.
terial was taken from the Office severa
months ago and no effort has beer
made toward q return.
Mr.. Potter refuses to speak for pub.
lication regarding the matter except Il
say that he feels that everything viii

Hatfield was an entertaining CONVERSE
tiona1ist, but refused in later years
when the facts of the most notorious
Of American feuds became obscured by
time to outline an authentic account
Of the events that made colorful page
In American history.

One account of participants credited
the feud with having started with q

couraged his children to obtain the
