Show Try to Whitewash Csse Against Goddard Thus Ear No Actim Has Been Taken; Indications Are That Charges Will Be Ignored. Special to The Tribune. OGDEX, Utah. March 2?. It now appears ap-pears that tho prediction made by The Tribune Sunday morning that the hierarchy, through Its local cccloslastlcal court, would endeavor to whitewash thc Goddard case upon thc nonsensical ground of Irregularity Is correct. So far no action has been taken, and Interviews with parties In a position to know, but who do not care to have their uamcs mentioned, bear out the statement that tho charges made by Mr. Smurthwalto aro to be Ignored If It Is possible to do so. It may not. however, be possible to do tills Mr. Smurtlnvalte Is a lighter, and has expressed the determination to force the church to meet the Issue, and his powerful Inlluence with members of the church may force them to come to time and meet tho Issue. |
