NYACK ROUNDS UP
ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS
Ten Creeds Represented at Con-
ference Of ''Drifters"

New York, Jan. 1.-THE first con-
certed movement ever launched by
habitual non churchgoers of a COM
munity hand in hand with church
members of all creeds in an effort to
find the remedy for the breakdown.
in the moral fibre of American life"
was begun last night in the Reformed
Church at Nyack.
Scores of prominent citizens, many
of whom had not entered church
more than once a twelvemonth for
wears, assembled with members OF
churches representing 10 different
creeds and embracing Catholics, Prot
estants, Jews and negroes.
The other u churches in Nyack
ere closed to allow their congrega-
tions to unite at the Reformed
Church, where the Rev. DR.. Sartell
Prentice, in a farewell sermon closing
his 10 years pastorate, presented the
plan He called it 1.-The community
behind the church movement"
The movement was organized by a
committee of 80 leading citizens who
were called together three weeks ago
by Supreme Court Justice Arthur 5.
Tompkins to discuss the problem OF
revitalizing the church. Only one OF
the 80 men was an officer of a church.
The membership includes three doc
tors, two presidents of local banks,
two editors of local papers, the chief
of the fire department, six labor union
heads, 10 commuters brokers' and
business men of New York city and
six local business men.
AS the first move in the campaign
the committee called 500 families
whose members did not regularly at
tend church, and asked them to go to
the Reformed church last night. AS
a result, the church was crowded and
hundreds were unable to get inside
It was estimated that SO per cent. OF
the congregation were persons who
rarely If ever attend church.
One of the most active members OF
the committee was asked what church
he belonged to. He replied
"The Episcopal church is the one
keep away FROM"
The committe took down the names
of all the persons in the church, and
will hold a meeting within ten days
to draft a letter asking them to ger
behind the movement. More den-
mite plans for carrying on the drive
will also be formulated at the meet
ing.
Since the movement was originated
news of it has spread throughout the
eastern portion of the United states
and hundreds of letters have been re-
ceived by tn committe requesting In
formation as to how the drive started
how II was succeeding and other de-
tails. and expressing the intention Of
starting similar campaigns If it should
prove successful in Nyack.

mittee includes Mortimer B, Patter.

such an overcharge that the room in
which the safe was located was blown
apart.
The safe was in the store of Lewis
Hand, a variety goods merchant. The
second and third floors of the block
are used as apartments.
The flames spread rapidly and fire.
