In 1926 Synod granted our institution a heating-plant, a dormi-
tory, and an Administration Building and placed the remodeling of
‘Building No.1 in the hands of the Board of Directors.

The heating-plant was erected. The dormitory will have been
completed when Synod convenes in June. The Board of Directors
‘did not see its way clear to permit the erection of the Administration
Building, nor was any action taken with regard to the remodeling of
Building No. 1.

It might be mentioned that the equipment for the new dormitory
was made possible through the generosity of individuals and con-
gregations, particularly of the Central Illinois District.

We trust that Synod will unhesitatingly grant our request again
to appropriate the necessary funds for an Administration Building,
grant the two dwellings asked for, and see the wisdom of making
. provision for another dormitory instead of spending some $40,000 for
the rehabilitation of the obsolete Building No. 1.

The Central Illinois District presented a memorial to Synod
asking for a reappropriation of $179,000 for a new Administration
Building and to place this appropriation first on the list of all appro-
priations for new buildings. St. Martin’s Congregation of Winfield,
- Kans., presented a memorial requesting the removal of the Springfield
Seminary to St. Louis.

Resolved : —
1. To appropriate $179,000 for an Administration Building.

Action.

2. To appropriate $10,000 for repairs in Building No. 1.

3. Inasmuch as Synod has already decided upon a building-
program for our seminary at Springfield, we consider the matter of
moving the Springfield Seminary as disposed of.
