The plan was darwn by Hen- ry W. Jessup, New York, represent- ing the Presbyterian church in the U. S. A. Dr. Willlam Henry Roberts, stateq clerk of the Presbyterian gen- eral assembly and chairman of l.he ad intérim committee which - consid- ered the plan, was unanimously chosen pres'dent of the council. The plan was adopted with one d:ssenting vote, Dr. William McKinn, Cincinnati, Presbyterian, opposing it on the ground that a change - had been made to which he objected. This change was the substitution of. the words - “Christian Church” for “Ev- angelical Churches” in the preamble. The plan as adopted provides that Christian churches having the same faith in Christ shall agree to asso- ciate themselves in a body known as the “United Churches of Christ in America” for the furtherance of the redemptive work of Christ in the world. It holds for “autonomy in purely denominational affairs” with each church retaining its creedal b ot of law where lawyers will not be per- mitted to appear, except perhars in their own behalf, is the experiment to be tried here. shortly under the provisions of a recently enacted state law.

H Both parties to actions must ap- pear in person and may summon wit- nesses. No assigned claims. can be| tried in the ‘“small claims” court, and no attorney or any person other than the parties directly concerned with the suit may “concern himself or in any other mammer interfére: with the prosecution or defense of the litiga- tion without the consent of the jus- tice,” The novel court is to be presided over by S. C. Hyde, a justice of the peace. He may enter a judgment for payment of claims in any manner he sees fit, and in case of refusal to sat- isfy such a judgment on the part of the losing party, he rgay make an effecl, whereupon affidavit to that' the claim may be collected through justice or superior court procedure, Wwith consequent increases in costs to the losing party.
