We are filled with suspiclon and distru: ©of each other. Our spiritual e perience has been hurt. If the church {s to accomplish great things these conditions must cease,” Dr. Lamar sald. “I have no ax to grind. You can look at my graying head and tell that T am nearing the time when you can do nothing for me. T speak only for the glory of God and the advance- ment of the church when I ask you to send this constitution back to an- other commission for four more yes and study,” he declared.
