IDENTICAL OVERTURES 249

2. The said delegate has advocated in Unprinted
Memorial 13 of the Ohio District convention that the
Ohio District “discontinue sending in its share of the
Synodical budget,” thus withholding financial support
from the Missouri Synod, and the said alternate served
as treasurer of a dissident group of congregations who
forwarded such funds as were withheld from the Synod
to said alternate to be distributed to the mission fields
of their choice.

3. The said delegate, without authorization by any
synodical official, did ordain and install with impunity
a nonmember of the Synod to the holy ministry at New
Haven, Mo., within the area of the Western District,
contrary to Article 4.17 of the Bylaws of the Synod;
and the said alternate did participate in this unauthor-
ized ordination and installation; and both, said delegate
and alternate, did by such ordination and installation
place themselves outside the fellowship of the Missouri
Synod.

4. The said delegate was a cosigner of Memorial 12
at the Ohio District convention in 1964, recommending
“to the congregations of its District that subscriptions
for ‘Lutheran Witness’ be in the future discontinued
and ‘The Lutheran News’ be substituted as the organ
of The Lutheran Church — Missouri Synod in its place.”
