In a meeting Wednesday of the standing committee chairmen, key ministers and laymen of the Presbytery of West Tennessee, the Rev. M. E.

Mansell of Rockwood. executive secretary of the Presbyterian synod of the MidSouth, told the group from 25 churches that "the Presbyterian Church, U. S. is on the march." In his subject "The New Life Movement" he cited the goal to add 1,000,000 new members to the church by 1950. which calls for bringing in one member for every three members of the Presbyterian Church.

Dr. Lee J. Ferry of Chicago, recently loaned to the Restoration Fund Committee by the Board of Foreign Missions in Philadelphia, followed the Rev. Mr. Mansell.

He spoke on the restoration fund. Dr. Ferry told the leaders that the restoration fund goal of $27,000,000 to be Daid in by Dec. 1, 1947, had $23,000,000 reported already. This fund is for the restoration of the missionary property around the world.

Dr. Theron Alexander, pastor of the Presbyterian Church of Humboldt, presided over the meeting. driver a net take-home amount of $103.98 for the two weeks, or $211.92 for the month. "The company's own records on this run, which ij one of the top A-l runs, do not match the company's published statement of what this driver made.

"On the other matter, that of Increased pay offer, the company says it offered to increase the pay for driving 1,200 miles from the former $63 to $64.80. "What it fails to admit is that the proposed new contract also calls for elimination of $3.60 for reporting 30 minutes early and $6 room allowance which make for an actual reduction of $7.80 a week. "Added to that is the fact that the driver would no' longer get $1.80 for additional two hours which he might have to spend in case of a mechanical failure on the road and he might lose $10.80 more for a run if he were delayed beyond the amount of time which he mus.t devote to rest under Interstate Commerce Commission regulations. "This is not nor has it been a fight over increased wages, but is an effort to prevent reductions in the pay scale prevailing under the old contract. "People are asked to form their own opinions as to who is right in this matter.

"We ask everyone to investigate as we have done and get the facts before forming an opinion, and deciding to classify drivers as racketeers. "We believe every fairminded person believes in fairness and justice. We also believe that proposals made to these Trailways employees are unfair and unjust. "Therefore, it is our intention to support these boys in a moral and legal manner to the end of this fight. "We have asked all Union members to refrain from violence and destruction of property and to conduct themselves in a mannerly way while on the scene of the arrival and departure of these buses." Labor Council Head Explains Position On Support Of Strikers Belief In the justice of the strikers' position in their controversy with the Southern Bus Lines forms the basi for support given Union members by the Jackson Trades and Labor Council.

President Roy Vernon explained today. Vernon stated that the local Council has made extensive studies of the matter, comparing Southern Bus Lines statements with information supplied them by members of the Amalgamated Association of Electric Street Railway and Motor Coach Employees of America, Division 1127 AFL). The Union has been on strike for the past five months over terms of a contract which it sought to conclude with the company. Southern Bus Lines, following several weeks of negotiations, declared contract efforts at an end and started hiring non-union personnel on August 20. It now is operating a number of its schedules with these new employees.

"Two things (among others) that we have found at variance with the company's statements," Vern said, "are the amount of money paid drivers under the old contract and the so-called raise offered by the company in the new contract it offered them. "We have here the company's statement that a driver on the Jackson to Columbus, run made $340.00 a month. "We also have here the company's duplicate time-sheet and payroll voucher given to one of the drivers on this run. "As you can see, the driver made a full schedule of runs during this two-weeks period. He made every trip.

"His gross pay, as shown by this voucher, was $120.77 for the two weeks. That is at the rate of $241.54 for the month.
