resolved to eliminate the boards for the Foreign-tongue Missions, the
Jewish Missions, the Indian Missions, the Seamen’s Mission and the
Immigrant Missions and to transfer this work to the respective Dis-
tricts in which’ thé work is carried on (Proceedings, 1982, p. 111).

allowance be ‘made for this work until these missions can be entirely
absorbed® =
