Rev. W. S. Poynor, thq rector, pro
moted the subject to the congrega-
non iij, an official statement of his
position and views on the needs of
the church. Later, it was brought
before the congregation in the form j
of an official resolution by the vestry,;
adopted in a special meeting Satur
day evening. The first vote on this
stood 79 to 75 but Mr. Phillip Arrow- ,
smith, who had voted against the (
deal, said he is liberal enough that j
he wanted to make the movement
unanimous and therefore asked to be
counted for it., This changed the {
vote to 80 to 4 for the program of ex
pansion and growth for the church.
