...talk of a Presbyterian "machine," few speak up in meeting to give it a name and address. Last month the Presbyterian Banner, anti-Fundamentalist weekly, made bold to list some able machine men: Dr. Covert, Dr. McDowell, Stated Clerk Lewis Seymour Mudge, Dr. Robert Elliott Speer, Dr. Charles Rosenbury Erdman, President Joseph Ross Stevenson of Princeton Theological Seminary, Dr. Hugh Thomson Kerr, Dr. Mark Allison Matthews-onetime Moderators all. If these Presbyterians represent a machine, it is because they stick together, see to it that Assemblies run smoothly, unite in a conservative distaste for extreme Fundamentalism. Last week when...

...Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Founder Massey is a kinetic, athletic Toronto socialite who worked in the shops and harvest fields of the family company before becoming an official in the Toronto factory. He is reputedly worth $1,000,000. A practical Christian, he is now a mild Socialist. Like Erdman ("Erd") Harris (also Toronto-born), Denton Massey appeals to youth, in a direct, personal manner. The enrolled class now numbers some 2.400, has outgrown four meeting places. Broadcast every Sunday, it is undenominational, open to all men. Radio mail streams in, addressed to "The Reverend-The Doctor-Very Reverend - Leader...
