SALVATION ARMY
PROCEEDINGS OF HIGH * COUNCIL NOMINATIONS FOR GENERAL TO BE ACCEPTED. I VITAL QUESTIONS UNDER DISCUSSION. (British Official Wireless.) (Received This Day, 10.30 a.m.) RUGBY. August 21. It is understood that the Salvation Army High Council has reached a stage at which it' is in a position to accept nominations for the office of General. An official statement says the council today discussed some methods by which assistance could be rendered to the Army General by developments within the scope of the present organisation. This is taken to refer to a suggestion with which the names of Commissioner Lamb and others are associated and to which other members of the council are believed to be strongly opposed, that the general should have the advice of an Administrative Council of Army officers in matters connected with organisation, as distinct from the duties of evangelical leadership. A Press Association cablegram from London states that the Salvation Army High Council passed a resolution desiring the new general not to change the constitution of the Army without consultation with the commissioners.
