churches demand for service at once.
What may be the cause, or the causes,
for this state Of things Is variously
guessed at. Some give theological dis
putes and loss OF faith. To these charges
replies are given that the liberal bodies
alone OF all Protestants are losing In
numbers or growing but slowly, while
bodies that recite the historic creeds, that
proclaim Christ and engage In foreign
mission efforts. are steadily increasing
in numbers. which claims seem to be
well founded. Other causes are small
salaries. the competition Of business, and
the increasing opportunities for Iaymen
to serve IN philanthropic and religious or
ganizations under somewhat freer oondi-
-tions. Many college men are being drawn
to these new professional and semi-pro-
fessional fields whose altruistic impulse
would naturally have led to the ministry

mites. The field of Journalism is COM

DO FEWER MEN SEEK THE
PROTESTANT MINISTRY

All Protestant theological seminaries
have now held their commencements.
Reports from them dasA the hopes of
those who looked for Improvement In
numbers of men studying for the Protest
ant ministry. There is q slight falling
on, heavy one In some of the largest
seminaries, and reports from 200 colleges,
covering all principal ones, are to the
effect that there are 15 per cent fewer
men at commencement this year than
last who announce decision to enter semi
naries and study to be Protestant minis-
tiers. Speaking of conditions In general,
the Rev. Paul Martin, registrar at Prince
ton, says: There has been an improve
ment in the past five years. Princeton
had twelve more students In 1911 than IN
the preceding year. But am disappoint-
ed to learn that there are forty-nine
fewer students in Presbyterian semina-
ries reporting to the General Assembly
just held, which is discouraging."
There are in the United States 1o2 semi.
naries where young men are educated for
the Protestant ministry. Many Of these
are quite small. Lutherans alone have
'twenty-seven. A few principal institu-
uons graduate 81 per cent. THESE nstitu-
tions number about twenty-five Re-

of these is religious liberty in Russia.
Forty Baptist ministers, natives of Rus
sia and laboring there, have attended
the Baptist Alliance at Philadelphia, at
least two Of them out Of prison on bail,
and have been followed to this coun-
try by Russian spies. Immediately upon
their return to Russia these ministers
must go to prison, one Of them to exile,
and the other to, repeated personal tor
lures. Others OF the delegation are like
ly to be arrested Immediately they set
foot on Russian soil.
The matter that will take President
Macarthur to Rome is liberty OF Bap-
lists in Spain and Portugal, and OF
Protestant Christians in Peru and
Ecuador. Baptists went into Portugal
almost before former King Manuel Of
that country reached his exile in Eng
land 1t is denied by Baptist leaders in
Europe that they have any contention
with the Catholic Church. They say
their only purpose in Portugal is to as
sist in spread of the gospel, and to sue
ceed in spreading it where, as they say,
the Catholic Church has failed. The
American Bible Society has recently re-
ported the burning of Bibles and tracts
in the streets of Peru cities. II is not
charged that Catholics did wrong, but
that mobs. incident to almost all coun-
tries, were carried away by evil re-
ports.
Baptists have now created what is, as
they claim, the largest organization in
the Protestant religious world, greatest
in numbers, and widest reaching in coun-
tries affected. Growths of Baptists in
Russia, in the Balkans, in Italy, and in
the Iberian peninsula have been rapid
late. So have growths OF Protestants in
Western South America 1t is declared
to be the conviction of President Mac
Arthur and of other Baptists in the
alliance. that personal conferences not
only with the Gar and Pope. but also
with prelates OF the churches affected,
can adjust a good many differences. They
feel sure that when honest purposes are

realized by both sides. most Of the fric-
ton can be done away with. Possibly
even the Russian Baptist leaders can be
kept from prisons.
The first president OF the Baptist World
Alliance was the late Rev. DR.. Alex
ander McLaren, OF Manchester, Eng
land. and the second one the Rev. DR..
John Clifford, Of London. The Rev. DR..
Macarthur is the third and the first
American. The alliance is, however. a
far larger AFFAIR now than under the
former presidents. with far wider MEM
bership and many more vital questions
before 1t. The term of the president is
FIVE years, and 1t is possible that the
new president will be compelled to give
up his New York pastorate in order to
enter upon the world administration Of
Baptist interests.
