Marriage Ruling Meets Approval of M. E. Clergv Cv Omaha Pastor* Favor Plan to Give Ministers Discre tion on Divorced Couples. Melhodist ministers of Omaha art emphatically in accord with the pro posed ruling of the general confer ence of the church to allow them to use their judgment in the second marriage of divorced parties. Some ministers state that the new ruling will fix definitely the responsibility ihe minister must assume when he marries the divorced parties, knowing ail the circumstances of the divorce. "Hereafter the minister will be liable If It ia proved he has performed such a wedding without proper “in quiry.” said Kev. Arthur A. Alack, pastor of the Hanscom Park Metho dist church. “The proposed ruling will not alter the judgment on di vorce which the church already has. Minister Takes Burden. “It will just place the burden of the marriage of divorced parties more upon the minister. He might, he sub ject to trial by the conference if he did not comply with the request. Judgment of the minister means within the bounds of reason.” Rev. N. C. Hanson, pastor of the Clifton Hill Methodist church, de rlares he is not in favor of marrying divorced persons hut thinks the con ference would rule judiciously if the _remarriage of such parties was left to the judgment of the minister. He has only performed one marriage of a div orced person in 39 v ears. "The action of the conference is good.” said Rev. Edgar Merrill Brown, pastor of the Dietz Memorial church. “It will let down the ba'r6 n little.” No Iron-Clad Rule. Rev. C. N. Dawson of Walnut Hill Methodist church believes an iron Had rule on the marriage of divorced persona could hardly be made. "But t good many cases of divorce are justified, so the minister must judge." he Said. Approval w as expressed by Rev. W. B Bliss of the Hirst Memorial church. "If the divorced are innocent and the couple to be married has tlie right conception of marriage who is belter able to judge than the min ister?'' he asked. Rev, Garrett Janssen of the Oak Street Methodist church and Rev. C. <Wilson of the Grace Methodist church said they approve the mea sure. Bankers Hold Banquet. York.
