Further Resolutions.

Resolved, that henceforth the names of the teachers be listed under
heading 2 in the "American Calendar for German Lutherans," immediately
after the name of the pastor of the congregation to which they belong.

Resolved, that the existing practice remain in place, namely that
Synodical schoolbooks be supplied to orphanages not free of charge,
but as cheaply as possible.

Resolved, to instruct the general agent of our publishing house to
continue granting the brethren in Saxony the most liberal discounts
in the future, and to accommodate them further by letting them have
the books unbound wherever this can be done without loss to us.

Resolved, to publish the "Statistical Yearbook" henceforth only
every three years.

Resolved, to instruct the Concordia Publishing House to make
another vigorous effort to collect outstanding synodical
contributions.

"Lutheraner." "Lutheran Witness."
Committee 16 reported as follows:

A. "Lutheraner."

We recommend to the Reverend Synod:

1. that the Lutheraner continue to appear every two weeks, as before;

2. that the "Lutheraner," however, be enlarged by four pages, in
order especially to gain more room for mission news;

3. that the Synod charge the faculty of the Seminary at St. Louis
and the Board of Directors of the Concordia Publishing House to
consider the question of accepting paid advertisements, especially
those that could serve our congregations, and give them authority
to act in the matter;

4. that the petition of the Effingham Special Conference, concerning
conference announcements, be referred to the editorial staff.

Recommendations 1, 2, and 4 were adopted. Recommendation 3 was
rejected.

B. LUTHERAN WITNESS.
Committee Report.

We recommend:

1. that the Lutheran Witness continue to appear biweekly as before,
in the same size as the current "Lutheraner" (16 pages), and with
roughly the same content as the "Lutheraner";

2. that, in order to accomplish this most easily, the editorial
office of the Lutheran Witness be moved to St. Louis, where the
"Lutheraner" is edited;
