Five Baptist clergymen are pre- paring a report to the Boston Bap- tist Ministers' association which will be the basis of any action taken by the group. Dissatistaction came to & head following the December meeting, when Professor Jerome Davis of Yale addressed the group, advocat- ing & more friendly attitude toward | soviet Russia. The Rev. Herbert 8. Johnson of Boston, in commenting on the situa- tion, said: “Unless there is a d cided change in the federation's | policien, the present situation is fm- possible.
