A long letter argues against replacing married missionaries with celibates, contending wives aid mission work in India and China while noting practical limits. It challenges assumptions about hardship, access to new districts, and the climate, urging sober discussion and funding to support chosen paths.
A letter from J T Collier argues that the memorial to change celibacy demands for Baptist Mission Society agents reflects the resolutions. He asserts the fourth resolution seeks celibate missionaries while the memorial asks to leave marriage decisions to individuals. He urges signers to read both documents carefully.
A reader rebuts Dr. Sanders and Dr. Landers in the Nonconformist letters page. The writer argues there is no salary reduction plan for missionaries and condemns insinuations of mercenary motives. They defend sacrifices by home supporters and critique calls for unmarried, fever-proof laborers in India, citing passages from the Christian World May issue.
