: Tte Cburcb ann Social Wnrest :;

| Within recent years eighty Protestant
churches moved out OF the district below

masses of people moved in. If the church
continues TO lose in the city, and IL the
cities are to dominate the nation. il
doesn't require prophet 10 foretell the
inevitable result. Ii is d simple problem
in mathematics
Underlying the spirit of social unrest
among the masses of the people there is
a deeply religious spirit. lhe working
man is naturally religious. He responds
most readily to the religious appeal God
is not dependent upon the church for the
carrying out of His plan for the redemp-
ton OF the world There came a time in
the history of the Church Of England
when II seemed to get away from the
people. Then il was that God raised up
man out of the Church of England
John Wesley-who established the wes-
leyan. or Methodist, Church. and when II
seemed that the Methodist Church was
getting away from the people God raised
up another man out of the Methodist
Church-Wiliam Booth-who established
the Salvation Army, and in spite of the
fact that the Salvation Army absolutely
disregards some OF those things which
the church considers essential. who VII
dare say that the Salvation Army is not
of God? There are many today within
the church whose vision of what the
church should be and do is extremely
narrow. Finally, the church is respon-
sible for the spirit of social unrest which
exists today. There are no labor troubles
in darkest Africa, but if the missionaries
that are sending there are on to their
jobs we will soon hear about strikes and
lockouts in the heart of the dark CON
tinent. They will find a people who have
long been satisfied with low physical,
mental and moral ideals. The mission
aries will point out these low ideals and
show them the possibility of a life in
Jesus Christ AS they catch something OF
vision OF these possibilities for them
selves there will come among the natives
healthy spirit of social unrest which
will not be satisfied until II breaks the
bands which bound them through many
a century.
This has been the history of the church
in every generation. Having brought the
people to their present condition of un-
rest. is the church now willing to Rep
aside and allow an outside agitator IL
come in and usurp the place which right
fully belongs to the church. or will the
church with courage finish the task which
it SO long ago began? This is the great
est problem confronting the church of
this generation

uperinendent of the Department of Church and
Labor of the Presbyterian Church.
~ HERE are thousands of otherwise
VI intelligent Americans who are
being deluded by the vain hope
that if they can abolish the labor union
they will have solved the labor question.
These men forget that If every labor union
in existence were to be wiped out today
the labor question would still be present.
For long years the people fought for re-
ligious democracy, and they won. Then
for 400 years they shed their blood upon
many a battlefield as they struggled for
political democracy. and they conquered.
Today they are lighting the battle for the
industrial democracy. and no human
power can stop their onward march.
1t is not necessary to enumerate the
social problems which confront today,
but every one of them is most prominent
in the city. The census returns for many
years have been indicating that the city
will dominate the nation. 1t must be
evident, therefore. that the city must
solve the big social problems of the times.
and the church must have an important
part In their solution. But while the
church is thinking about these important
matters other forces are challenging the
church for supremacy in the hearts of
people First. there is trades unionism.
with its fight for little children. for un-
derpaid women, for better sanitary con-
ditions. for fairer hours OF labor. for q
better wage and for everything else that
will raise the standard of living among
the people-not only physical and intel
lectual, but moral. Then there Is social
ism. with its insistence that socialism is
simply Christianity practically applied,
with the result that social; SIN has become
to thousands of workingmen a substitute
for the church. Socialists conduct more

There are four important facts in con-
