HAMILTON, Oct., 26- TWGIVQ Baptist churches of 011M110. 918M, c! them in Toronto were expelled; from the Baptist convention of 0n-

tarlo and Quebec at recent oonven tion here.

Disloyalty is the general cause of the recomme “ tion made t0 $11.9 open convention Thursday. Some 0

the churches had notified the 00hr vention of withdrpwal‘. Qlhers had declared themselves in open sympa- thy with the organization sponsor- ed by Rev. Dr. T. T. Shields. and’ still others have. Wltllput lmtioe. withdrawn support from the conven- tion and given Li". to the new union, That the schism in Baptist ranks’ is complete and apparently lrrevoc-, able is evidenced by the fact that‘ none of the dozen “outcast" church- es ought to register delégafes at the convention. Only opposition to the special report was that no action be taken which would ‘preclude re- turn of the expelled congregations.

. “Not Of Us"

But even to that mild objection the convention was not receptive. for the ﬁrst applause of the morn-_ ing was earned by a delegate who; remarked: "Those .who have gone? from us are not of us, and they should not be allowed to re-enter until we are assured that they are Baptists." '

The special report was lead to; the 200 dclegatcs- by ll. Pettit, say-; ing that while loath to turn any church away, the executive was ob- liged under instructions of last year} to recommend that the twelve chur-‘ ches be not allowed to send cele- gates to the convention, an act which automatically cuts these’ churches of! from membership in the convention.

Expelled Churches

The dozen churches now added b0 Jarvis Street Baptist hurch on the "expelled" list are: tanley Av- enue, Hamilton; Shenstone liiemor- ial Church. Brantford; Baker Hill Long Branch; and from Toronto, Dovercourt Road. Waverley Road, Annette Street, Christie Street. Grace Church, Forward Church; Markham Second Church, and Fairbanlc.

One delegate interpreted the ac- tion of the convention as not expel- ling the twelve churches, but as re- cognizing the rlght of the congrega- tions to decide if they choose.

Chancellor Whldden added that while the various churches have voluntarily cut themselves oil’, the‘ former resolutions in each case 1N1! conform to legal procedure as Gilt- lined in the constitution even though it makes it appear that the conven- tion is the aggressor. ‘

I think there can be little doubt that the people of the Maritimes, ' perhaps in the form of written documents, or pa}; 1189s by spoken word of responsible political leaders of that time, were" assured of transportation services which in cost and character would- enable them to market their pro- ducts to the rest of Canada and carry on their industrial activities.‘
