RESOLUTION 6-55

Wuereas, The limitations of time have prevented
Floor Committee 6 from coming to definite conclusions

all items which it has not been able to handle should
be referred to those officials, boards, committees, or
agencies of the Synod which are best able to give
further consideration to these matters; therefore be it
