In connection with these figures the
Year Book, which was compiled by Dr.
e. o. Watson, Washington secretary OF
the Federal Council Of Churches, ex-
plains the difficulty of reaching basis
of comparison of the different religi-
Gus bodies owing to their varying basis
of membership. =
The Year Book of the Churches
brings out the different methods Of
computing membership in the Roman
Catholic and most of the Protestant
bodies. The Roman Catholic church,
according to the Catholic Directory,
includes in it's membership Catholic
population" while all but few small
bodies of the protestant churches count
only communicate members. So the
two figures are not comparable unless
the protestant membership is used as
basis for constituency" or Protest
ant population"
It has been somewhat difficult to
get the proper ratio between commun-
icant membership and constituency,
but DR.. Walter Laidlay Of New YORK,
who has had large experience as sta
titician Of the New York Federation
of Churches and in the Census Bu-
reau, has demonstrated through va
rious tests that communicate member
ship multiplied by 2.S gives church
population" For instance it is mislead-
ing to say that there are 17,S85,646
Roman Catholics and 26,745,543 Pro-
testants, when the former refers to
Roman Catholic Population" and the
latter is "communicant membership
To make them comparable the Protest
ant communicant membership has
been multiplied by 2.S.
The Year Book also shows that
whereas by the latest figures avail
able on January l, 1921 the combined
communicant membership of the Bap-
tist churches of the country led the
combined Methodists by 37,269; be-
lated returns by the Colored Metho-
dist Episcopal church give the Meth
odists lead of S3,307. The growth
OF the Colored Methodist Episcopal
church is said to be the most remark
able growth Of the churches for the
year period. The Mcthodists have T.
91S,557 communicate members and the
Baptists 7,S35,25O communicant men,
