24.Concordia College, St.Paul. Two items were referred to-
Board of Directors. Part of the allowance of $9,550.00 for the-
onditioning of the old “South Building” was used to make-
ssary repairs, particularly in the basement. A later develop<.
ent was the plan to recondition the building for use as a dor
ry: These plans could not be carried out at this time.

io 25. Concordia College, Oakland. The sale of the part of the
ege campus west of 62d-Avenue was to be’ looked ‘after by our
Board. The Board gave permission to sell this property for good:

_ again this year, if Synod adopts the above report.
. 27. Concordia College, Edmonton. The convention in 1940
granted all students at Edmonton free tuition. (Proceedings, 1941,.
p. 85.) This was considered an exceptional and temporary arrange-

“ 28. Seminario Concordia, Porto Alegre. In 1941 Synod made-
‘a grant of $25,000.00 for the erection of the right wing of the semi-.

“The South American Mission Board, being consulted in the matter,.
