Baptist Resolution
Reasserts Stand
On Church and State
Another Denounces
Soviet and Rumonion
Curb on Religion
BY the Associated Press,

By the Associated Press.
ATLANTA, July 27-A resolu-
ton asserting "State churches and
church-States are alike in direct
conflict with the principle of ire
ligious) freedom" was presented to-
day to the Sixth Congress Of the
Baptist World Alliance.
Reasserting traditional Baptist
opposition to connection between
church and governmental agencies,
the resolution insisted worthy re-
ligion rests on the conviction that
the individual soul is competent to
deal directly with God -
Every for moi coersive restraint or
constraint of man in his converse
with God is both a sin against the
individual and a hindrance to hu-
man welfare"
In separate resolutions, direct
mention was made of religious re-
strictions in Russia and Rumania.
1.-The members of this congress,
said the first of these, deeply de-
plore the fact that the government
of the U. S. S. r. has maintained
through many years and still main
tains an attitude and policy of hos
tility to religion"
Recent action of Rumanian au-
thorities in permitting reopening OF
Baptist churches brought expression
of satisfaction" in another reSo-
luton, but the paper added the
congress was nevertheless con-
strained to point out that the new
administrative decree - appears
unacceptable, inasmuch as the exer-
else of control by a government de-
partment of the internal affairs ol
churches is in itself violation OF
the principle of religious freedom.
The governments of both Russia
and Rumania were urged to grant
full religious freedom.
Touching racial tolerance, a
fourth resolution said members OF
the alliance rejoice that prepara-
tlons for the present congress have
been carried through by joint COM
| mlttee OF the white and Negro)
ldecS al pcI1tCL harmony.
Continuing the discussion of bap-
tism, DR.. j. H. Bacoats of Baker, La.
argued that to say there is any
mysterious virtue impaired or any
saving power in baptism per Sc is a
tendency to ward sacred otalism."
AS to the everyday working of re-
hglon, DR.. Theodore Adams of Rich
mond, Va, suggested your creates,
JOY in life will come, as another has
we'll said, as you find what God is
doing and do it with Him"
Sale and use of intoxicants was
assailed by resolution with assertion
liquor has caused increase in crime
waste of national resources and cor
rupt social habits.
