F. Niepyer, Chatrman.

Concerning this report Committee 8 brought in the following
recommendations : —

1. Resolved that we greatly regret the inability of the Church
Extension Board to fulfil at least the most urgent requests for needed
assistance. ;

2. We are glad to- hear that some churches are straining them-
selves to the utmost to meet their obligations to the Fund by making
repayment on loans.

3. We regret, however, that other churches continue to take their
obligations to the Fund rather lightly and have thus deprived needy
missions of the requested support.

4. We commend the Board for the precautions taken in extending
loans.

5. That not only as heretofore the amount loaned to the District
and to the congregations within this District be published in the
report to Synod, but also the amounts delinquent from the specific
District and its congregations.

6. To strike off the items from the books of the Church Extension
Fund as recommended on page 109 and 110 of the printed memorial.

7. We strongly recommend that, if at all possible, loans be
granted to Districts only.

8. Regarding the Oklahoma memorial (unprinted, No. 28), pro-
posing a longer term than ten years for the repayment of debts, with
a graduated scale of repayment, we recommend that Synod leave its
regulations in this respect unchanged.

9. We recommend that Synod empower its mission boards to
borrow money from the General Church Extension Fund. _

Action of Synod.

These resolutions, recommendations, and declarations were
adopted.
