The group on "The Responsibility cf the Church and School in Tenant Farming" was led by C. Nd'son, Secretary for the Fellowhip of Reconciliations. The ministerial students of Emory, Gammon, an*.. Faine took a prominent part- in this discussion. They a.Vreed that the church must take an active part in solving this problem, and that it must insist on justice and better opportunities for the tenant. These yourg m?n roriouslv faced the fact that to lake a stand seriously means for them a loss of salary and probably an invitation to leave the com' munity.
