...Presbyterian commissioners (delegates) made ready to journey last week to Syracuse, N. Y. for the 148th annual General Assembly of the Presbyterian Church in the U. S. A., in Philadelphia a famed and zealous Fundamentalist geared for action. Dr. John Gresham Machen professes to believe he is persecuted by a "Modernist Machine" in power in the church. In his Fundamentalist Presbyterian, Guardian last fortnight Fundamentalist Machen warned his disciples not to be deceived at the General Assembly by the way the Machine would "conceal the real issues" by limitation of debate, parliamentary bullying from the moderator's chair, celebrating...
...From Philadelphia, Vatican City of Presbyterian Fundamentalism, issued a new semimonthly, The Presbyterian Guardian, the last word in undiluted orthodoxy, as expounded by Fundamentalist Dr. J. Gresham Machen.

Well it might be, for it knew that the 147th General Assembly was ready to belabor it and vote it down at every turn...
...Though Fundamentalists repeatedly 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.
