OF Gospel
Is Urged
DIR. Grey Says
This One Great
Matter Draws All
Baptists Together

MIAMI R - Representatives OF
more than seven million Baptists
were asked today to place more
emphasis on propagation of the
gospel" in this critical period Of
world history.
DR.. ]. D. Grey. New Orleans,
president Of the Southern Baptist
Convention, told the opening ses-
sion of the 95th meeting that "our
common task of giving the gospel
of Christ to the whole wide world
is the one great unifying, under
girding and cohesive power "
If our existence asa convention
had depended upon our complete
unanimity in politics, economics,
church architecture or music, form
of worship or even creedal COM
mitments, this convention would
not be in existence today. &c.
While all Of these matters are
of tremendous importance. their
disposition rests with the local zu-
tcnomous congregation called a
church. On the other hand the
propagation Of the gospel is the
one great matter that draws to-
gether the energies Of our denomi-
nation hike the electric magnet
draws together the pieces Of steel.
DR.. Grey said Today We need
10 re-emphasize the principle Of
democracy and make II crystal
clear thai this convention has new
er usurped Authorization power.
This does not mean, he coz
tinaed, that the convention in ses-
sion is not 10 sound off on great

Presidential
Race Today

Returns trucking in from West
Virginia S heavy primary voting
today give Sen. Robert Taft a Is.
toll margin in the popularity poll.
A late rush Of voters Tuesday
swamped many balloting points in
the 1882 precincts. Some closed
shop at deadline. leaving late
corners queued up outside. while
others kept open as long as anyone
wanted to vote.
Taft candidates for presidential
nominating delegate seats were
ahead in all but one of the 16
contests. A supporter of Gen.
Dwight Eisenhower was leading in
that one. Taft people expect a
clean sweep but say losing one
delegate to Eisenhower could hard
ly be called a victory for the gen.
eral.
Results in 1,120 precincts showed
81, 916 votes for the Ohio senator
against 1927 for former Gov. Har-
old Stassen of Minnesota. Eisen-
hover was not entered in this pref
erential voting and write-ins were
not counted.
Democrats held no presidential
popularity contest and, without a
fight, named a 20-vote delegation
to the nominating convention.
Both COP and Democratic dele
cations are officially unpledged.
In Washington, Sen. John Mar
shall Butler of Maryland took is
sue with Eisenhower's statement
this week that, if the American
people want him for President,
They know where to find me-"
