UNION Of METHODIST CHURCHES
ISFAVORED BY SOUTHERN BODIES
Negro Methodists Said to Be Especially Eager to Be
Brought Into General Unic n Y. W. C. A Makes Large
Gains During Year; Salvation Army to Build Gen
eraI Hospital; Prison W ork of Army Extended

NEW statement concerning the
n proposed union Of all MethOdists
Of the United States. white and
negro. has just been issued in behalf Of
the Methodist church. and its more than
200. 900 members. This new statement
declares Southern MethOdists to be in
favor Of union TO their last member,
and puts the responsibility for union
negotiations sQuarely up to the North
ern NethOdists- Among the latter there
is admitted to be some opposition, al
though IL was with the Northern Meth
odists that the present plan started
The plan is 10 create one American
Nethodism for all whites, and another
one, federated with il but separately
governed, for all blacks II this be
done it will make one Of the largest
religious bodies in the world, certainly
the largest Protestant one There is to
be one general conference, and one
board Of bishops, and one each Of the
general agencies, such as foreign mis-
sionary societies and others A reason
why il is believed the plan may go
through is that no body Of MethOdism
is swallowed up, none go out Of exist
ence while another survives Every
Methodist body goes into wholly new
and united American Methodism-
For purposes Of administration Of az
fairs below the general affairs, this
new statement from Southern Metho-
dists proposes three districts each with
its district conference These districts
are TO be north OF the Ohio and east Of
the Mississippi river, south and east
Of the same, and the whole region west
Of the Mississippi. The district con-
ferences will look after district inter
ests and differences, and elect all Off
cials. while the general body will ap-
prove acts OF the district ones. and
attend to matters OF doctrine and disci-
pline-
Regarding the negro 1IethOdists the
proposition is to help the three large
negro Methodist bodies TO unite, and
take with them the 325,000 negro mem
bers Of Northern Methodism- It is hint
ed in the statement just issued IN be-
half OF Southern Methodists that negro
MethOdists everywhere desire and vel

II the plan goes through a Methodist
negro church Will result containing
about 1000 900 members, and a white
