CONGREGATIONAL
COUNCIL OPENS

DIES MONIES. Ia, Oct. 13.-The
triennial session of the national
council of the Congregational
churches Of the United States opened
a six-day session in the Plymouth
Congregational church today. About
500 delegates were present at the call

The address of the retiring mod
orator, the appointment Of commit

tory nature occupied the greater part
of the opening session.
Important questions confronting
the Congregational church are slated
for consideration at the present meet
ing of the national council. The
council is not a legislative body, yet
its advice is followed by the churches
in quite as large measure as are the
laws obeyed that are enacted by Of
fetal bodies among other denomina-
tioHs. The matter of most popular
interest is the proposed union of the
Congregational Methodist Protestant
and United Brethren bodies. The ma
tional council represents the largest
of the three bodies, and it's action
will carry greatest weight. Prelimi-
naries of the union have been ar
ranged. A union of Methodist Prot

denomination now here seems to be
cooperation. rather than consolida-
tion.
Union on some working lines, as
missionary interests and a few minor
points, is about all that Congrega-
tional leaders look for this year.
Many think the present council will
do well If it secures cooperation in
any real sense.
The present gathering Is historic
in one sense, in that for the first
time the several benevolent and aux
iliary societies of the church are
meeting in conjunction with the ma
tional council. The American board
whose meeting has been in progress
in Grinnell during the last three days,
adjourned at noon today and it's mIm-
bers reached Des Moines in time to
participate in the opening proceed
ings of the national council
The dominant theme of the popular
address before the council will be

Industrial problems will be consid-
