BISHOP JAMES CANNON, JR., APPOINTED CHARIMAN OF UNIFICATION MOVEMENT Nashville, Tenn., Jan. 28. ? Ac cording: to advices received here at the headquarters of the "Friends of Unification'' movement. Bishop James Cannon, Jr., of the M. E. Church, South, has accepted the chairmaaslvn of the committee on organization of the movement, which is formed for the purpose of creating sentiment ! favorable to unification of northern j and Southern branches of the Metho- ' dist cjirurch. For the prosecution of. this work Bishop Cannon announces that he has opened an office in Richmond, and that those interested may address l\im on this subject at I'. 0. box (505. Advocating ihc Vires!' v I : r- ' . > of the proposed plan of tinitiea'.ion. pro and con, the committee of which Bishop Cannon is head, announces its purpose of placing before the people through the printed page, by public speech and private conversations, facts concerning the responsibility of South.-- Methodist:- for unification of American Finis opal Methodism and the facts concerning the pro posed. plan, its advantages and uis a J vantages, wherever the people de sire it. In this connection. Bishop Canno.-i says: " I believe there should bo the fullest and freest discussion nf' the purpose of the plan of unification arid of every item in t' ? plan, not to praise i: on the one hand or discredit it on the other hand, but to explain what the plan propos s. the probable immediate effect, and the effect in years to come.*' Bishop Cannon in a public state ment gives it as his opinion that a vote on the question should- not be taken in any congregation or confer ence when only one side of the ques tion has been fully presented. He furthermore states that he does not thiuk th :t any lay delegate should be elected either to district or to annual conference pledged to vote either in the affirmative or in the negative. The preachers are not so pledged, he says, and lay delegates should not be; and if after his election a layman hanges his mind as to what he be lieves the will of God i s, he should fbllow his conscience. The Church is not a political party with conferences composed of instructed delegates, he declares, and those charged with the responsibility of voting upon the acceptance or rejection of the plan should base their decisions upon their definite conviction of the will of God and apart from any minor considera tions such as approval or disapproval of speeches or activities of individ uals. According to the action of the gen eral conferences of the Mehodist Episcopal Church and the Methodist Episcopal Church, South, the plan of unification passed favorably upon by both these bodies, will go to the an nual conferences of each denomina tion for final vote at their 1925 ses sions. Approval of three fourths 01 the members presc nt and voting is re quired for its adoption.
