On Joint Prosecution of Various Foreign Missions.

Report of committee, consisting of Rev. G. A. Gullixson, Presi-
dent Im. F. Albrecht, Rev. F. J. Lankenau, and Rev. H. M. Zorn: —

The committee appointed by order of your Board of Trustees, in
accordance with a resolution of the Synodical Conference adopted in
1926, to deliberate on the matter of taking over “a mission in Poland,
and eventually all foreign missions of the various constituent synods,”
reports the following: —

Since no overtures have been made to the Synodical Conference
by any of these synods to take charge of such missions, the committee
has no recommendation to make in this matter to this convention.

This report was adopted.
