the ulans I’l-c put into action
would:
1. Bring three major convention
agencies—the Education. Benefit,
.ynd Home Mission Boards—to
•Jfeiladelphia where they would be
lloused in offices of the Foreign
Mission Board, and where they
would operate under a unified
budget system.
2. Lift the “intellectual level”
of the proceedings of the NBC, |
Inc’s., annual sessions through a
set of democratic, but governed ;
standards. 1
A separate—but no less import¬
ant project outlined at the meet¬
ing—would register at least 10,-
000 new churches by convention
time next September in Chicago.
Tiiis move would represent a hith¬
erto unprecedented campaign, aim¬
ed directly at bringing these un-
affiliated churches into the great
NRC family.
Such a move too, would obvious¬
ly greatly strengthen local pres¬
tige of churches affected, as well
as give them voice in an organized
movement to advance the Kingdom
of Cod.
Presided over by President Jack-
son, the historic meeting here gave
top priority to that part of the
plan which calls for establishing I
in Philadelphia all major board J
offlces as a means of developing a
unified budget for them. 1
Listed number two and paren-
to make the
unified budget a reality and op¬
erative is the need for regular and
scheduled conferences between the
various board secretaries.
In the most elementary of
once activated in relationship to a
local convention-church, the budget
proposal would work like this:
A church will send one
sum of money to the
central office, instead of smaller
amounts to several board
r.bw ' in as many different
The money will still be
to the particular boards,
r.s so designated by local
officials at the point of
tion.
Another advantage of the
fiecl program as seen by
tion leaders would have the
C! . a j boards no longer trying to eel.
ist their own
times in competition with each
er—but they will now join to sell
toe entire convention program
a team.
The meeting’s attention to an¬
nual session activities was called
by a statement which categorically
demanded—‘^Ve Whist lift the in-
tellectual level of the proceedings
of NBC, U. S. A. " Inc.”
To effect this the mooting sug¬
gested guaianteoing “freedom of
che individual” and “freedom of
assembly” to ail convention mes¬
sengers—ministers and otherwise
orderly procedure as determined
in a large measure by the conven-
.ion’s business committee.
In this connection the meeting
would:
1. Have all persons with un-
;• heduled business for an annual
session to present same to the
business committee for approval.
2. Admit only qualified mes-
angers—ministers and otherwise
-to the convention platform (a
book is in the making listing
hurelies and ordained NRC min-
•tar.'.).
3 Refuse re-ontrance to the con-
nt'.on to any member ousted for
mseemly conduct.

p \STOR REPORTS TO
CONGREGATION
The "break with the NBC occur-
| red aftcu' Rev. Hendefrsoif report-
ed to the church on the recent
i Louisville convention, and also
j , upon actions of the national body
during the past 29 years that he
had been attending. He reported
| that at this year’s convention, he
1 was without a voice or vote, even
as a recognized delegate, and was
the recipient of various insults
from pro-Jackson (Dr. J. If. Jack-
son, Chicago, president of the con-
i yention, and pastor of Olivet Dap-
tist Church), forces. He reported
also that he felt he could not in
good conscience turn over Second
Baptist’s check for $4,000 to the
convention. Instead, he returned it
with the recommendation that the
money be given tn the NAACP
Freedom fund. This proposal was
accepted
The decision to break with the
convention had the unanimous ap-
proval of both the deacon board
and the church membership.
“I’.M TIRED OF CONTENDING ’
Commenting upon the action of
ids congregation, Dr. Henderson
said: “I’m tired of contending. 1
believe the National Baptist Con¬
vention is hopeless. I would nevei
join in any move to split it. hut 1
cannot spend the rest of my active
ministry in an atmosphere of ten-
sion - mo,) s Pi?b dictatorship and
