N CHARGES MADE IN NEGRO CHURCH ROW Trusiees Make Statement and Pastor Explans His Case “Protestant churches in general are concerned about conditions existing in the A. M. E. Zion church in which a’ controversy between two factions has resulted in an attempt to oust the minister. The controversy resulted in a hear- ing before a ministerial committee representing the New England con- ference last week and concluded with a vote to reprimand the minister and a letter to Bishop W. L. Lee of Brooklyn asking for a final ruling. The meeting was in charge of Rev. S. W. Weller of Middletown, presid- ing elder, and was held in secret, the presiding elder and other deny- ing that any important meeting was befng held. After a report in the Herald of the meeting, the following statement specifying the charges, was issued by three of the trustees: “We the undersigned, wish to cor- rect the statements placed in your paper Thursday evening. We wish 1o call your attention to facts. There is no faction or discord. The prin- clpal charges brought against the minister, Rev. Mr. L. F. Alston is: conduct unbecoming a minlister; banking the church's money in his awn name without the consent of the trustees and intemperance. “The trlal committee announced him guilty of banking the money in his own name, which will cause an immediate removal on receipt of the Bishop W. L. iee signature, which | the trial committee will ascertain as carly as possible. “It was announced by them that Rev. Mr. L. F. Alston will act as temporary pastor until he receives 2 notice. Charges found against the pastor by the investigating commit- {ee on December 7, 1926, while the Rev. A. J. Gorham acted as chair- man are as follows: First, banking the church’s money in his own name without consent of the trustees; sec- ond, abusive language; third, intem- perance which he was found guilty of hy the trial- committee on Wed- resday evening, Jamiary 12. 1927, “There was no election of officers of the trustee board in the absence of the pastor, Rev. Mr, A. L. Alston. When these officers were elected the pastor was acting chairman of the oard. “At that - special meeting there were mo rumors _concerning any oheck cashed by E. L. Richardson for personal use. There were.no cfforts made to keep news from any teporter. The presiding elder, Rev. S, W. Weller, made a statement concerning & reporter seeking infor- mation about the happening which he refused to submit until the close of the meeting. 3 “Instead of an increase in the church there is a decrease of 75 per cent. The reduction of the mortgage is not credited to the present pas- tor, Rev. Mr. F. L. Alston. It is through the $3,000 bequest by Mr. Spencer Douglas that this outstand- ing mortgage has been reduced by $2,500 instead of $2,000. “The back salary of the pastor is not as stated.” (Signed). E. L. Singleton, Jr., H. M. Brewer, E. L. Richardson. Pastor’s Side of Story Discussing the charge of banking church money, Rev. F. L. Alston, the pastor under fire, explained that the trustees had elected two treasurers and as the official head of the church it was his business he felt to hold onto the funds until the controversy could be straightened out. He says he presided at a meeting in which it was svoted to elect E. L. Singleton and oust E. L. Richardson as treas- urer. ton elceted and at a meeting held while he was York city, the trustees clected Singleton, an clection pastor refused to recognize. On the morning after the hearing a representitive of the Herald tele- phoned the presiding elder, Rev. S. W. Weller at Middletown, reminding him of his promise of the preceding afternobn to tell the facts in the case. The reply was “It was just a little private business and there is subsequent in New met and the He refused to declare Single- | present,” the pastor says. The development of the two fae: tions in the church is said to have sthrted last August when the. pastor rcmoved one or two committee chairmen, who, he said, were 'not functioning, and placed others in charge. One of the men who testified against the minister is sajd by the latter to have obtained aid from a local welfare organization, while he had $700 of his own in a bank. Minister Blames Brewer Speaking of the letter which Mr. Brewer is alleged to have obtained by mistake, and upon which the pastor plans to base a ‘suit for $5,- 000, Mr. Alston says “If Chairman Brewer had not eent an order to the post office and through mistake received a registered letter addressed to me at my residence; had he not opened it, read it and kept it until Sunday afternoon, December 5, be- fore giving it to me; had he not been interested in its contents which had reference to the charges he had sent in, there never would have been any disturbance in the church by way of a trial. “But, what really is the trouble? Here it is in brief: “The church edifice has been par- tially condemned by ‘the insurance | people. The electric lights were at- tached to telephone wire running Tere and there through the building. The plumbing system was demol-; ished within the walls: The ceiling | made of plaster was falling down. | The inside of the upper story of the building was dirt. Everything was going. to ruination. Nothing had been donme to the building since it had been purchased. And no dné knows how long before. No one in The chief interest was manifested by the few rulers whenever some one of the spirited citizens made a donation. Intelligent people, many of them, were migrating to Hartford on the Sabbath day for religious services where they could gaze at a minister standing in & thousand dol- lar pulpit, with carpet on the floor and chandliers in full glare. "Vhile {he New Britain man was compelled to put up with what he had; wel- come any one who might step in out of pity or curiosity, regardless to his theological training or what not. We had no one to help. Joseph Young of 162 North street, who is tion company, stepped in and got back on the board as its secretary; cited the pastor; took other work- man and began to renovate the church from top to bottom. The work is not yet completed. This |stirred a hornet's nest. “The old board composed of two or three men refused to be further | active as a result of apprehension or jealousy. Certain firms came to the rescue through the consent of the the church had any interest in it.| employed at the Berlin Construc- | NEW GLASSES OPEN ONY. ¥, PROGRAM Schedule for Week Completed for Al Girls Tnterested A new term for swimming classes starts this eyening at the Y.

Weld, ran out of her home, 43 Park Place, Saturday night in time to see a man driving away. She stepped on to the running board and demanded to know why he was takin her car. As the machine gathered speed he warned her to get off or she would be pushed off. She alighted and notified the police, who communicat- ed with the authorities of nearby Pplaces. Later Saturday night, the car was found in Plainyille. The thief evi- dently was.afraid to drive further in the storm because of the proba- bility of being apprehended, or else he wanted to get to Plainville with- | out delay and was content to aban- don the car after reaching his destination.

W. Chamberlain of the board of police commissioners said today he will recommend at the next meeting, that equipment such as firearms, hand- cuffs and flashlights, which super- ! numerary policemen are obliged to | buy, be furnished by the city. If the recommendation of the salary com- mittee for an increase in numeraries’ pay to $5.25 per day is | adopted, and the equipment men- tioned is furnished without charge to the men, Chairman Chamberlain feels the ranks might be well re- cruited. At the present time there are probably only about 25 super- {numerary policemen who are physi- | cally able to do night work con- sistently, and for some time Chief Hart has been cognizant of the seri- | ousness of the problem of interesting | young men to the extent of having | them join the force. Chairman Chamberlain said a special meeting will be held shortly | for the purpose of preparing the budget for action by the board of finance and taxation. An appropria- tion to provide for increasing the strength of the regular force will be asked, but it cannot be said with requested number of new men will be five or 15, the chairman said.
