so large it might be set down, in the
absence of definite records, as the
dropping away of the resentful rich.
But there are not half million of
the resentful rich. 1t is not that the
church has too vigorously taken the
side of the poor man. 1t is something
else.
1t is, if anything of that sort, that
they have gone over the head of the
poor man, Using him as pavement in
the pathway of the first page of the
newspapers.
There has grown up in our country,
particularly since the war, a great
craving for publicity. To consider
able extent ministers share this crav-
| ing.
Once the bug bites, the venom is
planted to stay. Sensationalism is all
a preacher counts his success by the
number of columns of publicity he
gets. Publicity has its undoubted val
ue in getting sustaining contributions
from those who have money to give.
Anyway, the churches in the Evan
/, gelical Protestant group have suffered
grievously in point in membership.
There will be many sea1chings and
and examinings and equally numerous
explanations and alibis.
That there are too many ministers
who are incompetent as leaders and
preachers will be denied by those who
! fall in that category.
! That there are too many who are
primarily lobbyists will be denied by
those in that category.
That there are too many who are
primarily showmen will be denied by
| those in that category.
That there are too many who are
merely publicity hounds and go-get-
ters will be denied by those in that
category.
Meanwhile the great rank and file
bred to seek spiritual relief and spirit
ual guidance, will keep on wondering
where to go. 1t is all part of the
enhancing and puzzling phenomena
of modern life.

TheCherry
j" Where with our
we tell the truth
about many things, sometimes pro-
fOundly, sometimes flippantl-,
sometimes recklessly.

| 1t is announced officially that the
Protestant Evangelical churches lost
about 100000 members from their
rolls in 1926.
This indicates something of great
Importance and there will most ma
| turally be many speculations as to
what it may be.
For a long time there has been in
the minds of a great many persons
the thought that possibly there was a
falling off in church membership and
the official figures would confirm their
suspicion. They do-and half mil
lion loss is great enough for any group
to feel, no matter how strong it may
be.
But the question that is bound to
arise: What has caused the drop?
1t may be considered no part of
labor discussion to inquire into this
matter, and perhaps that is right. But
it is matter of public interest and
labor can not be divorced from it's i'm
portant place in the public life of the
country.

REAL ESTATE OWNERS
FIGHT ANTI-SLUM PLAN

New York-A bill that was ap-
proved by the state legislature and
is intended to end slums in this city,
has been indorsed by the Board of
Aldermen and Municipal Assembly.
The bill will now be passed upon
next month by the referendum. Court
proceedings are threatened by real
estate interests.
The bill will enable the city to con-
denim land and lease it for housing
projects designed to reclaim slum Sec
tions.
For quality try Standard SC cigar.

One is driven to wonder whether the
churches themselves are not to blame
for the loss of members. One is driven
to wonder whether this drop in mem
bership does not register something
of silent protest against the lobby
ing activities of many ministers, and
perhaps also against the business
spirit that has invaded many churches,
as well as the institutionalism of the
Elmer Gantrys and the showmanship
of the Amiable McPhersons.
The Federal Council of Churches is
one Of the most powerful lobbying or
ganizations in the National Capital,
practically law to itself, far remove
from the voice of the great rank and
file church membership.
A great many ministers have organ
ized their own local lobbying and po-
litical enterprisesan perhaps all Of
this extra-church effort, as it might
be called is having it's bareback.
