METHODIST CONFERENCE
REV. SEAMER'S PROTEST t P«r Frets Association I DUNEDIN, Feb. 2J. At the Methodist Conference the Rev. A. J. Seamer, head of the Home drew attention to cases of hardship revealed by the first diaft stations, stating that the present position reacted unfairly on some struggling country circuits as compared with the more affluent city ciivuits, and a disproportionate burden fell on the Home Mission Fund. The committee on circuits was permitted to retire to hear Mr Seamer’s evidence. Conference adopted a motion reaffirming adherence to the Bible-in-Schools League policy, also expressing appreciation of the policy of the New Zealand Alliance and determining to release a number of ministers to assist in the campaign before the poll is taken.
