Mi State Convention Discusses C:mmittee Report Rev. Decker Makes Address. HAMMOND, Ind., Oct. 14. The bars were let down at the convention of Baptist churches of Indiana in the First Kaptist church of Hammond Wednesday, and a free-for-all discussion, which followed the reading of a committee report. on the single collection agency and unified missions, developed a stiff light. Although unanimously in favor of the 'five-year plan," whereby Indiana Baptists expect to do their part in a concerted effort on the part of the denomination in all states north of the Ohio river to reach a definite increase in membership and income by 1?20, the convention is dhided on the question of consolidating state departments havucational publications, home and foreign missions and benevolences. I i' OUUvrs Affected. The report of the committee carries a recommendation that Indiana Baptists have one agency for this purnose ami nlace a ireneral secretary in 1 charge. There are lie otlicers who now have charge of these matters an all are present, prepared, it is said, to oppose the change, not that it would divest them of their titles, but that it wo'ild remove one of the principal functions of the ottices they occupy. I The Kev. Charles K. Stanton of Granville, O., representing the home and loreign missionary societies; the Kev. L. Huberts of Franklin, Ind., representing the American Baptist Publishing society; the Kev. F. U. Kenny of the Franklin Baptist college; the Uev. W. B. I'ope of Franklin, representing state missions, and Mrs. Andrew McLeish of Chicago, representing the women's societies of the church, are the olficials from whom the power to collect funds would bo removed. The recommendation of the ! committee, - making the necessary changes in the by-laws, will go immediately into effect if adopted. All the olficials named are salaried, with the exception of Mrs. McLeish, and it Is said that the single collection agency will make none of them unnecessary to their employers. To Haise $:- 1,5(5 1. The 516 Haptist churches in Indiana, with a membership of 00,000 persons, have set themselves the task of raising annually $ : 4 , T 6 4 , or approximately $5 a person for the next five years. This sum, according to ilgures given by the Kev. C. A. Decker of South Bend, represents Indiana's share on the financial side of "a fiveyear program," adopted by the Northern Baptist convention at Los Angeles, Calif., last May. This program provides for 1,000.000 additions to Baptist churches by bapjtism, of which Indiana's share would it i nrv.A . -to i be more than 8,700 a year, or 10 ad ditions to each conRregatitn and more than double the number taken in by baptism in the last year. Indiana, according to the Rev. Mr. Decker's figures, must add 400 new members as its' part of the new force of 5,000 missionaries.
