As ParIey Nears End
By cospor Nonnes

ST. LOUIS. June 5.-The eth
session Of the Southern Baptist
Convention will end today.
The messengers yesterday
overwhelmingly approved a reso-
luton calling on its members to
accept with patience and good
will" the recent Supreme Court
decision abolishing segregation
in the public schools.
An effort to table this section
of the Christian Life Commits
sion report was soundly beaten
when less than a 100 messengers
in the gathering of nearly 10000
persons supported q substitute
motion.
w. M. Nevins Of Lexington,
KY. presented the motion to
table the section. He told the
messengers it indicated. I'VE
have not been Christian towards
the colored race and that we
have not given them their con-
stitutional rights"
The 81-year-old Lexington
resident declared II believe in
emancipation and equality and
that all citizens of our country
should have equal rights but I
do not believe the Bible teaches
or approves amalgamation Of
the races"
The recommendations de-
clared the convention recog-
nized that the Supreme Court
decision was "in harmony with
the constitutional guarantee of
equal freedom to all citizens"
and commended the court for
deferring "the application of the
principle" until the Nation shall
have time to work out methods
by which transition from the
present practice may be ef-
fected."
After calling on Southern
Baptists to help and not hinder
"the progress of justice and
brotherly love-" the statement
expressed faith in the public
school system and urged that in
the necessary adjustment its
