Tjii lin ABOUT THE CONSOLIDATING OF SOUTHERN BAPTIST FINANCIAL BOARDS DR. JOHN T?.1 WHITE Read the Report Against Consol idating-There Was a Spirited Debate On Question - (By Associated Press) Nashville, Tenn., May 15.-Spirited debate tm the question of centralizing the Sunday school, foreign mission and home mission boards of Hie South ern Baptist Convention featured to day's sessions of the organisation. The discussion was launched nt a special session, called to consider the efficiency commission's report. Ad journment was taken without any de cision being reached. The matter will be further considered at another ses sion tomorrow. Dr. John E. White of Atlanta was jone of the principal opponents and several other well known delegates spoke for and against the plan. Just before the discussion tar?se the convention had adopted an amend ment to the bylaws providing "either applause or dissent on the floor of the convention is out of order and lt shall be'the duty of the presiding of ficer promptly to suppress all such demonstration." Delegates disregarded the new sec tion and burst Into applause repeated ly during the debate. President Lan sing Burrows rapped for, order and called the convention's attention to its recent action, but little avail. When the afternoon session Con vened lt was first agreed to take ac tion upon ' each sub-section of thc three sections composing the efficiency commission's report. Minor changes In verbage were made during consid eration of the first section, but no serious opposition was made to any. Scarcely harr-Or. White, a member of the commission finished reading this,part of the report when Mr. Mc Connell demanded recognition. For Centralization. He declared that the present ar rangement of having, three boards was not conducive to ufft-vfieat interests of the convention/ The speaker charged that under the present ar rangements the boards were striving against each other. "We want the en list the profoundest sympathy1 and greatest liberality of our constitu ency," said Mr. McConnell, " a crowd of .appeals from two: or three boards in Jures .all.-* Yoji cannot make givers You cati only obtain gifts- making the people want to give." ^S?. i The speaker declared that there waa a great need for cultivating literature and pronounced the . Home Mission Field and the Foreign Mission Journal as inadequate. "What .We need/'?'hi added, " is one great periodical ?nd one mission board." ' Br. John E. Willie assured the ?titi ge tes that the commission had ehre-' fully considered the-matted"Miitfofe; ni?k?n?r the rt^cchimeii-ation. '.Fis es-' pressed the belief that 'c&#usion <youJd result if an attempt *lef$ jua?<f tb consolidate tho boards inVJtny' ode. city He also declared th&t' ne single city could furnish adequate' hanking faciiitiees. In Ttichniond :atfd Atlanta the speaker'said, a board'.'ifould not be able to borrow beyond a certain fixed amount as a result of the'in I staluttion ot the regional banks. ?
