Moral Questions.

BY tne Associated Press.
| MONTREAL. N. c., May 27.-The
general assembly of the Presbyterian
Church in the United States today de-
cided against creation of a permanent
committee on social and moral ques-
! tions
With that proposal out of the way, it
then moved rapidly through it's docket,
, transacting mass of business without
debate, although questions of prohibi-
ton and relations with the Federal
Council of Churches of Christ in Amer
lea were included.
Judge Sam NJ Wilson, Lexington, KY.
commissioner, took the lead in the
movement to exrunge from the min
utes all reference to the proposed COM
mittee on social and oral questions,
| which had been sponsored by DR.. Stuart
Oglesby Of Atlanta. His motion was
carried, 1877 to 99
Withdraws Recall Motion.
Judge Wilson also sought the recall
OF resolution by DR.. Oglesby, adopted
last night, preliminary to his motion
for creation of the Committee on Moral
Questions, in which reference was made
to notification of the laws Of the
land, whether notification is oficially
sanctioned or not"
he Withdrew the recall motion, how
ever, when by common consent the
resolution was changed to register on
position to disregard for laws of the
land"
With regard to prohibition, the Gen
erai Assembly reiterated it's declaration
OF last year, saying: I'VE believe the
times call for fresh educational cru
sade against the evils of the drink
curse. And call upon churches Sunday
schools and young peoples societies to
be tireless in their efforts to combat the
use Of alcoholics as beverage"
The assembly voted to refer the o1es-
ton OF rejoining the Federal Council
OF Churches, from which it withdrew
two years ago, to the Presbyteries for
action during the coming year. But later.
upon notion by DR.. William Grove of
st: Louis, reconsidered the action and
submitted the matter to an Interim
Committee which Is to report at the
next assembly.
Smith Decision Withheld.
The Judicial Commission, considering
the 4-year-old charges relating to the
beliefs of DR.. Hay Watson Smith, Lit
tie Rock, Ark, minister, which have
been under fire on the allegation they
are incompatible with the theology of
the church, completed its work. but
withheld announcements of its decision
until the report is formally presented to
the assembly.
The General Assembly approved a
spending budget for the year of slightly
under $1,200,0O0.
The sum was allocated as follows:
Foreign missions. s60892O: home mis-
sions, $299,7 1928; Christian education and
ministerial relief, s235,502; religious
education, $55475.
provision was inserted allowing the
Foreign Missions Committee to spend
up to $650,00o should the money be
available, and should fluctuations in
foreign exchanges make such expendi-
lures imperative. Included in the gen.
eral budget figures were specific aIlot-
ments Of $4,000 for women's work and
$4,000 for the Committee on Steward
ship and Finance.

Buck Case.

BY the Associated Press.
COLUMBUS, May 27.-The militant
fundamentalist faction of the Presby-
terian Church in the United States
suffered a stinging defeat in the Gen.
eral Assembly today when an over
whelming vote of confidence was given
the Church Board Of Foreign Missions
BY rising vote Of at least to /. the
assembly accepted the majority report
of its Foreign Missions Committee
against minority report presented by
two members.
The board has been the focal point
of attack of the ultra -fundamentalists
headed by DR.. J. Gresham Machen of
Philadelphia and others. who charged
it was having "modernist tendencies
in its handling of the case of Mrs Pearl
Buck, author and former missionary.
Issue Declared Ended.
With today's triumph. church leaders
were quick to assert the issue raised
by the extreme fundamentalists def
nitely was disposed of so far as this
assembly Is concerned.
The minority report contended that
the boards actions had resulted in un-
dermining the confidence Of the church.
Dr. Roy E. Vail of Detroit, rising to
the defense of the board and its senior
secretary, DR.. Robert E. Speer, denied
that the board had been untrue to the
strict doctrinal teachings Of the church
But Peter STAN, jr., of Philadelphia,
who read the minority report, and Rev.
Robert S. Marsden of Middletown, Pa,
who seconded it. contended there was
widespread feeling of dissatisfac-
tion'
Attacking the board in connection
with the Buck case" STAN recalled
that the resignation of Mrs. Buck was
accepted with regret by the board.
1T should have been with regret
that she went astray," he said, not
regret that she resigned"
Urged Creedless Faith.
Mrs Buck recently expressed herself
for "creedless faith" and, criticising
some theological ideas as Superstition, !"
she also attacked some missionaries.
Those who opposed these views as
serted they were unorthodox, and
shortly thereafter, Mrs. Buck resigned
as a missionary to China for the Pres
byterian church.
Rev. H. McAllister Griff1ths Of Phila-
delphia, militant fundamentals and
foe of the Board of Foreign Missions
as now constituted, announced after
the vote that "a new board will be or
garized by Bible believing Christians
to promote truly biblical and truly
Presbyterian mission work"
He said a meeting for organization
will probably be held in Philadelphia"
in June
Commissioners for the General Coun-
ell. Standing Finance Committee, and
the Judicial Commission, were nomi-
mated by the assembly. Elections will
be held Monday.
Commissioners nominated were: Rev.
Harry j. Rogers, Kansas City, Mo-: Rev.
Raymen M. Kistler, Rochester, N. Y,
and the following ruled elders, j. Wilt
son Smith, Philadelphia; DR.. John M

ITHACA, N. Y, May 27.-New ex-
periments. made possible by aluminium
plated mirrors developed at Cornell
University and expected to produce ad-
ditional data on the temperature of
stars and the condition of matter in
them, will be conducted by a Cornell
expedition to Flagstaff, Ariz, this

The mirrors, the invention of r. c.
Williams Of the physics department,
make this type of research possible for
the first time. The ref1ectors were
first used by Comedians in observing
the solar eclipse in New England last
August, but at that time chromium
was used as a coating. 1t has since
been found that aluminium is more ef-
fective in rejecting the ultraviolet
spectrum of stars, hitherto unobtainable
with the old type of silver-plated
mirrors.
Prof. Samuel L. Boothroyd, head of
the astronomy department, will head
the expedition to Schultz Peak. in the
San Francisco Mountains, about 8 miles
north OF Flagstaff. He will be accom-
panied by Williams and r. C. Shaw.
