The Council could take no jurisdiction over some questions raised at Northwest Texas Conference about materials passed out prior to voting on constitutional amendments. There was no record in the minutes or in the materials sent to the Council of a written set of questions or request for referral to the Council so jurisdiction on the matter could not be taken.

The bishop was wisely covering all his bases by reporting the incident.
