N., on Monday, when the latter ad- ministered what he termed a thrash- ing because the clergyman had kissed | his wife, tendered his resignation as executive of the Greater Boston Ied- eration of Churches at a special meet- ing yesterday of the board of direc- | tors of the Federation. The 16 direc- tors present voted to defer action upon the resignation until a subse- quent meeting when all the board's 22 members shall be present. To Free Federation's Hands “My chief desire is to help the fed- eration,” saild a statement read by Mr. Paine to the directors. "I feel that it is not I who should determine my fitness to continue in office, and 1 hereby tender my resignation. This tender is solely to free the hands of | the directors.” The directors issued the following statement after the meeting: ‘“The sense of the board present was that any action taken should be taken by the whole hoard. Those present greatly deplore the conduct frankly and publicly acknowledged by Mr. Paine. In view of his splendid record of life service and his unimpeached probity they bespeak for him the Christian and friendly conslderation of the public. Bays Incident Closed Lieut. Hague announced that he had declded to take no legal action against Mr, Paine and that he con- sldered the incident cidked. In a statement he said in part “My attitude in Mr. Paine's office was the direct result of his repeated attempts to kiss my wife in spite of her protests and active opposition ‘which constitute an insult no man in honor could overlook. T have abso- lutely no excuse to offer for my ac- tions in his office and the suggestion that I apologize to him is absolutely absurd. I have no intention to apolo glzing as suggested in the postseript of his apology to my wife and Mrs. Hague has no Intention of doing so I consider that I did what every man would do who found himself in a sim- flar predicament. My only thought at any time has been to uphold my wife's honor and this episode has simply en deared her more to me,” The encounter hetween Rev. Mr. Paine and Lieut. Hague occurred in the former’s offices after Ileut. Hague had charged that Rev. Mr. Paine had been paying undue attention to Mrs Hague during his absence. While the lieutenant was away Rev. Mr. Paine took Mrs. Hague for an automobile ride and while they were strolling through a meadow later he kissed her. The clergyman maintained that his| action was merely a paternal and friendly act and that his actions could not be construed as offensive, Store Employes Enjoy Outing at Momauguin The joint outing of the “Iair” and Davidson & Leventhal stores was held at Momauguin yesterday.

The nine hoys who have passed that test are: Otto Barta, Stanley Turek, Henry Slipsky, Stan- ley Killian, Joseph Azaro, John Go- lab, Walter Ozechowskl, Frank Salal- ino and Emil Deutsch.
