PROTESTANT CHURCHES
SLUMP IN MEMBERSHIP
Smallest Annual Increase in Thirty
Years Recorded for 1919
Statistics Show.

NEW YORK, April 6.-The smallest
annual increase in Protestant Church
membership in the United States for
thirty years is recorded for 1919. in
statistics compiled by DR.. H. K Car
roll, who prepared the first official census
| of religions and made public by the
Christian Herald. The increase for
1919 was only $4,000. as compared with
the average increase for the ten years
previous of 771,947. The slump started,
he said, in 1918 which showed an in
| crease of only $4,000 members.
| The hitherto most prosperous denomi-
nations in the United States showed the
following decreases for the year: .Metho-
dist Episcopal, 69,940; Presbyterian Gu.
s. A, Northern), 32.30S: Disciples of
| Christ, 1880; Methodist Episcopal
| (South), 16.404: Northern Baptist Con-
vention. 1885,, National Baptist Conven-
ton, IS 5,007; Presbyterian (U. S. A,
| Southern). SSH; United Presbyterian.
1885: Cumberland Presbyterian. 1,645;
| Welsh Caivinistic Presbyterian, 992;
| Norwegian Lutheran, 2,910.
| Among the reasons assigned for the
decrease were the interruption or sus-
ipension of regular work Of many
parishes by the war; calling of pastors
from their pulpits by the concentration
of efforts in centenary and other gigantic
drives for funds. and a great increase
in deaths, due partly to the influenza
epidemic.

| MACON, Ga, April Senator Hoke
Smith, in a campaign speech here last
night advocating his own selection in the
presidential preference primary. declared
that to select A. Mitchell Palmer as the
democratic candidate for President
would be burlesquing' He added that

against Mr.. Palmer in his own state.
"Palmer's nomination would mean
party suicide" declared the senior
Georgia senator. ITO select him means
certain defeat. I've about decided that
I'm the most available candidate for the
position"
Senator Smith declared that the
democrats must return to old-fashioned
ideas.

in Government Business

CHICAGO, April THE United
states has made no progress in the
business of government in a hundred
years. Gov. Frank o. Lowden of Illi-

fore Hhe American Hotel Association.
THE machinery of government to-
day Is not as well suited to perform it's
functions as it left the hands of Alex
ander Hamilton and his colleagues
back in the eighteenth century" he
said.
We go on from day to day as if
this government would endure for
ever. whether any one makes it a
matter of his concern or not That
isn't the lesson that history teaches.
Government does not endure unless
It's people have the same devotion to
its interests in times of peace as they
have heroism in times of war"
