Missouri Synod meets as nation faces social strain
The Missouri Presbyterian Synod convenes in Jefferson City to discuss new social and economic proposals. Leaders reflect on Presbyterians' historic role in education and liberty while urging sober examination of reform ideas amid a shifting national agenda. The 29th annual Brotherhood of Locomotive Engineers and Firemen convention opens, drawing delegates from across the state and beyond. Jefferson City mourns Herbert S. Hadley’s death as a notable local figure. The piece concludes with broad, varied commentary on contemporary politics and a missing note about Mrs. Curtis Dalts Reno trip.
