. “Wuereas, The respective committees of Synod will have recom-
mendations to bring in regarding our institutions and missions and
in this connection the deplorable fact cannot be overlooked that such
a large number of our candidates of this year have not received assign-
ments; furthermore,

“Whereas, The District Presidents, after assigning the calls, had
special occasion earnestly to consider the question how to give the
remaining 110 candidates at least some temporary work in the Church;
therefore your Committee

“Recommends, That all District Presidents earnestly endeavor to
make arrangements to have one of these candidates taken over by
two or three of their visiting circuits in order that such a candidate
may be given some work in the Church under the supervision of the
Visitors; and furthermore your Committee

“Recommends, That these vicars or assistants be given enough
besides board and lodging to keep them out of actual need; and finally
your Committee

“Recommends, That every District President submit this matter
to the representatives of his District and the College of Presidents
to Synod.”

These recommendations were adopted by Synod.
