UNITY OF THE CHURCHES
This Will Be Accomplished Through
Missions, the Leaders Declare in
Their Congress
limited Press Dispatch.l

Washington, April 29.-The unity
of the church, long sought by reli-
gious leaders, can be brought to pass
sooner by encouraging the work OF
missions than in any other way,
speakers said today at the National
Missionary congress. The present
convention, representing all denom-
nations and all sorts of missions, is
in itself great move toward better
understanding among churches, II
was said, and the determination to
advance together in the common field
of missions is still another big step
toward unification. With sessions in
all of Washington's churches, the
congress will close tomorrow. Lead
ers agreed that in work done, agree
ments reached and plans made, it had
done more to-. advance the general
work of missions than any other con-
ference since the world missionary
conference in Edinburgh, Scotland.
