The divergence of belief, revolvInK about a strict Interpretation of Scrip ' lure was recognized at the meeting ! of the assembly last year, when Dr. i Charles R. Erdmnn, moderator, ap ! pointed a committee with the fol lowing Instructions: "To study the epirltual condition cf our church and tho causes mak ing for unrest, and to report to the general assembly, to the end tjiat purity, peace, unity and progress of the church may be assured." This committee, headed by Dr. Henry C, Swearingon of St. Paul, will make its report May 28. Discus sion Is scheduled for the following Monday. The examination of belief and the report was the direct result ot tbo appointment ot Dr. Harry Emerson Fosdick, a Baptist, to a Presbyter Ian pulpit in New York. The Phil adelphia Presbytery protested against his liberal viows, whllo th-j New York Presbytery accepted him. The general assembly finally decreed that Dr. Fosdick must accept tho Presbyterian articles of faith or re sign. Ho resigned, but this did not abate tho feeling In the church. Tho alignment of poposing fac tions may bo evidenced even boforo the discussion ot this report, how over, as tho two candidates tor mod erator represent opposing sides. The election will be tho first order of business. Dr. Lapsl -y A. McAfee, pastor of tho Flrt Presbyterian church oi Berkeley, Calif., one of the candi dates, Is rocognlzcd as a fundamen talist and lost to Dr. Erdmnn last year by only a small margin. Dr. William O. Thompson, formerly pres ident of the Ohio state university, who withdrew in favor of Dr. Erd man last year, opposes him. Dr. Thompson's stated beliefs arc construed as liberal or modernist, and ho Is expected to poll a heavy vote from the eastern Presbyteries, except Philadelphia.
