PLEA FOR WoRkINGMEN.
Closer Relations Between Wage Earn
ers and Church Urged.


New York, July 14.-Protestant
churches of America should be brought
into closer relations with the wage
earners Of the nation. says a state
ment issued here today, by the COM
mission on church and social service OF
the federal council of Churches OF
Christ in America.
To accomplish this purpose, the
commission proposes that hundreds of
powerful, highly socialized and demo-
cratically organized churches should DO
established In Industrial centers.
1t suggests that seminaries should
train ministers to know how to ad-
minister such churches, men who will
know economic and social problems, as
well as theology.
1t proposes an alliance Of the church
with tho workers themselves ito
achieve the great objects for which
the workers are struggling such as
living wages, reasonable hours for con-
ditions Of labor, equal opportunities
and pay for women, participation In
management and ownership and aboli-
ton of child labor"
1t is proposed also by the commits
sion that the church denominations
should agree among themselves to es-
these churches in industrial centers
and that the denominations could
close churches which compete.

building. In due course, OF time the
city's building inspector was asked for
a permit to do the work. Lack OF
knowledge OF building construction or
failure to properly inspect the build
ing before the permit was issued by
the inspector, It is claimed, was re-
sponsible for the disaster. During the
progress of remodeling the building

that many OF the organizations found to

percentage Of this also has undoubtedly
been taken by crooked promoters.
The need for watchfulness Is not in
any way lessened by the cessation Of

Mr.. kiroe says profteering played a
