In the matter of temperance a committee of
seven, headed by the president Of the council,
Bishop Hendrix, was appointed to wait upon Pres
ident-eect Taft to express approval of his past
action in the matter of prohibition, to report the
opinion of this council (total abstinence for the
individual prohibition for the United States), and
to pledge it's support in his future efforts to abae
the drink traffic A resolution asking for the bet
ter protection of the Indians in this matter was

ports was that on 'Local F'ederatons," presented

dred picked men. The council meets once month,
the executive committee meets weekly and an an

touch with the work. The mere existence of this
federation proclaims the essential oneness of
evangelical Christianity. These are thousands in

Korea This federation makes possible we'll

points. The immediate result being that nearly
thousand men converted in the streets have made
public profession of faith in Christ. The most
striking witness to the efficacy of federation was
given when our fleet in Californian waters.
California has no Sunday law; great naval pa
rade had been arranged for the Sunday after it's
arrival which happened to be Easter Sunday.
There was no law to appeal to, no time to call
mass-meeting, but the executive committee of the
local federation of Los Angeles met and sent
telegram to Admiral Evans asking him to coun-
termand the order for the parade and though
many forces combined to oppose such advice, he
did countermand it and his order stood. This
local federation keeps in touch with the City
Council and brings the forces of righteousness to
bear upon it's acts; it keeps informed on indus
trial questions and has done away with late Satur-
day opening in retail stores. 1t has established a
Federation Club, which is a perfect beehive of
church activity.
In the discussion that followed the Federation
of Trenton N. j., was described by Dr. Macauey
showing remarkably effective work there, espe-

From Trenton the plan of local federation has
spread into six counties Resolutions we're adopt

ing local federation throughout the land.

Two matters of Importance were considered
during the closing session on Tuesday morning:
The report on international relations presented
by Dean Henry Wade Rogers, Of Yale Law
School and that on family relations, written by
Bishop Doane but in his absence presented by a
member of the committee. The shortness of time
prevented any discussion of the second report,
concerning which indeed there was thorough
unanimity. Resolutions were adopted urging the
duty of the Church to preserve the purity Of the
family recognizing the threatening danger from
increasing divorce and endorsing the uniform di-
vorce bill formulated by the recent National Di-
Iyorce Congress; To this congress delegates had
been appointed by the Inter Church Conference of
1909 and by the Governors of forty States. and
there is ground for hope that a uniform divorce
law may be enacted by Congress at no very dis
tant date.
Dean Rogers very able and exhaustive report
gave special emphasis to the Importance that the
Church should take action with respect to disar-
mament, subject which The Hague conferences
have declined to consider resolution was
adopted concerning the duty of the Christian
Church to take firm ground as opposed to war

The subject of Religious instruction in High
er nstitutions,'' reported by Chancellor Steph-
ems, evoked interesting discussion, in the
course of which the Rev. q. j. Boville, founder of
Vacation Bible Schools and secretary of the Ma
tonal Bible School Committee had an opportu-
nifty to tell of the remarkable success of this move
ment in bringing city children under the influence
of religious education during the long summer
these schools afford for the services of college
not engaged in study The most important rec
ommendaton of the committee, unanimously
adopted, was that
''The governing boards of the several denomi-
nations represented in the council establish per-
manent bureaus or boards, whose duty it shall be
to cooperate with one another and with institu-
tons of higher learning in organized effort to
improve, to systematic and to maintain religious
instruction and training in the educational agen-
cleS of our country"
Other resolutions adopted recognizing the
valuable work Of the Religious Education Asso-
citation, of the Young Men IS and the Young Wo-
mems Christian Association and approving of the
establishment of local UNCONVENTIONAL pastOrates
and halls in connection with State universities
and undenominatiOna institutions.
Finally, in view Of the paramount important of
the subject, and the need of a unified plan, the
three committees on Sunday school instruction.
week day religious instruction and religious in
struction in higher institutions were continued as
a joint committee to report to the next council
Concerning Sunday observance and temperance,
there was practical unanimity and great enthu-
siasm

by the State in it's arrangement of the course of
school studies, which right calls for more time
during the work day to be given to religious in
struction in the homes and churches of our land"
Another resolution calls upon all churches, &C.
cesiastcal bodies, the religious and secular press,
public and private educational resolutions pa
rents and all interested to realize their natural re-
sponsibiity to promote the religious education of
the young. Still another invited the National Ed
ucation and Religious Education Associations to
appoint committees to act with committee of the
council to arrange plan for the religious educa-
ton Of the children of the country.
