body wants to sell, nobody wants to rent or lease), therefore 4
in 1954 another duplex residence ought to be erected. We request Ҥ
Synod to grant us permission to construct another duplex 3
residence in 1954. If economic conditions do not change too
drastically, the cost of the requested duplex residence will be
approximately $30,000.

Our Seminary Grounds need much attention, especially the
lawns around the building, which give our Seminary the proper.4
appearance before the public. However, with the present hand“
lawn mower the gardener cannot keep the lawns in proper condi-
tion. We therefore request Synod to equip our Seminary with
a motorized lawn mower.

Summary of Requests

1. Creation of two professorships for 1953;

2. Creation of a sixth professorship for 1955;

3. Construction of soundproof walls to provide more class-
rooms in 1953;

4. Construction of a second larger wing to take care of more
rooms for boarding students and to supply additional classrooms
for 1956;

5. Construction of a second duplex residence in 1954;

6. A motorized lawn mower.

Since we hope that Synod’s Seminary in Greater Buenos Aires:
will be permitted to serve also Chile and other neighboring coun
tries in the very near future, as, for instance, it is already serving’
Colombia, we ask that all of our present requests be considered
favorably for the greater extension of Christ’s kingdom in South;
America. God give all of us ready and willing hearts and hands

Asking the gracious Lord and God to give a special measure
of His Holy Spirit to the Forty-Second Convention of The Lutheran’
Church — Missouri Synod, we wish to remain most humbly
