Your Committee deem it wise, however, to make a general state- ment in the-Press at the present time. . Your Committee urge all to stand rm in your resolve to pre- serve your Church and retain your Church property. ' Stay with your historic Church and keep your liberty of action, and do not enter a new denomination, where it will be for you to only .work, pray, pay -and obey. ~ - Church officials, high and low, are urging you to yield to their persuasion and sometimes to their threats. How can you better learn about the West than from one who has spent twenty years of his life there? The Presbyterian Church Association assure us that the vote thus far is largely. as anticipated by them. The. decisions in the case of small charges dominated by official- dom are the first reported. . The situation will vary from time to time until June 10th, `Notice the large minorities who vote against Union in so mam congregations. Notice the small number of votes cast- -less than twenty in many cases--where the decision is said to be unanimous. _ .Has it been explained to you Why this is so? . AAnd yet these are all counted as Unionist victories.. . The Union Act provides for a new Union denomination; for a continuing Presbyterian Church; for the right to go into Union in the future;'but no way of getting out of Union when once in. Beware! Are We still a cautious people? . __ If you vote Union, the decision is irrevocable. .+` Retain your right to, decide your own future. - The Ministers Superannuation Fund in the United Church is__ to be an allocation or assessment_in amount and proportion. and all else under rules to be formulated by the General Council. .
