F. C. Steinmetz. By the Associated Press NORFOLK, Va., January 31.—Rev. Francis C.

The an nouncement was made to the congre- ation at the close of the morning service in a few words No reason was given and no comment was made on the decision of the court in up- holding the vestry In its clash with the rector as to authority over the church’s property. Recause of the prominence of those | Involved, the break between Dr. Stein- | metz and the vestry and the former's |action in taking the fight Into the civil courts created widespread inter- est. A year or more ago the minister replaced a statue of the Angel of the Annunciation in the_chapel with a statue of the Virgin Mary. Members of the Selden, who contributed the | chapel, it was said, objected to the removal, and the vestry requested the rector to restore the angel. This he declined to do, holding that he had | exclusive control of the church edifice and church under the laws of the Episcopal Church. The vestry then authorized a committee to see that the change was made and appropriated funds to cover the cost of the work. It was then that the rector appealed | to the courts for an injunction. The | injunction petition was argued at | length January 22 before Judge A. R. | Hanckel in the City Circuit Court, who | withheld decision until he had made an inspection of the church.- Satur- day he announced his decision, hold- ing that the rector of the church had authority only in the performance of MONDAY, JANUARY 31, | Military « | to be 1927 Interallied Military Control Commission.
