Facing the Truth About Churches
By ALLEN A. sToCKDALE
Minister First Congregational Church

There things which honest minds admit about
churches Namely that there too of them for the
good of the communities where they exist and ask for the
support of the people, There is too much time spent In rails
ing money and too little energy given to carrying out worth
while programs of inspiration comfort and service There
many small unattractve buildings, poorly paid and
inefficient leaders, too much domination by minds stae
and too much looking backward to days long past.
Hyprocrites In the Churches
Of hypocres in churches just there
in trades professions and industries Of there
dull and unnterestng pulps and critical and unjust
but these things only the manifestations of hui
manty, not the special products of the churches
The future needs fearless and intelligent leadership the
correction and elimination of all Of these things. We need
enthusiastic concentrations fewer larger and better
equipped buildings greater crowds centered In fewer Places
people giving what they able to budgets provided
do larger work We need better trained church saff with
special workers for special fields that the pastor may not be
expected do the impossible and important service may
be left undone because of the limited time and strength of
few to do the tasks which call for energetic and enthusiastic
groups.
Gospel Searching Light
We must remember and admit that rousing red hot
will be pleasure to guilty conscience The
Gospel not opate to put people to sleep but searching
light to awaken and convict
church be made to like theater and still
render its greatest service humanity Too often is the
gayness Of Saturday night parties instead of the uness of
Sunday morning services that make many people
sleep
Churches still offer and the truth and light,
the love and life of God The restless unhappness of the
world the result of much collapse of the world rather
than too much failure of the Christian Gospel Of the churches

recognition.
"The good sides of the prOpa-
ganda could be adapted to
American conditions, while the
bad sides would not take root"

NEW YORK, Sept. 80 GN.SO
New York today prepared Tor a

the mayoralty with three candl-
dates in the field for the NoVem-
ber election.
Entrance of Joseph V. Mckee.
former president of the board OF
aldermen, as an independent
candidate against Major John r
O'Brien, Tammany selection, seek
ing reelection, and Fiorello H. La
Guardia, the fusion candidate,
brought bitter blast from tne
fusionistS, but Tammany leaders
seemed little concerned.
"Aide to Tammany"
Fusionists denounced Mckee as
an assistant to Tammany" and
asserted the only effect his candi-
dacy would have would be to split
the opposition vote, enhancing
chances of a machine victory.
Democratic organization leaders
professed no fear over McKee's be-
laCed decision TO run, WHICH, AAo
accompanied by vigorous denun-
citation of Tammany Hall, John
F. Curry, its leader, and John NC
Cooey, Brooklyn boss.
Smith for O'Brien
But they are prepared to turn
their guns on the former alder
manic president, branding him a
"deserter" from the Democratic
organization.
McKee's candidacy was also
looked on in political quarters as
a stimulus for participation in the
campaign of former Governor Al

taken no part in the local contest.
Smith, according to Democratic
circles, is ready to take the stump
for Mayor O'Brien and aid in hold

LEAGUE RESOLVE
DEMANDS AID
FOR JEWS

GENEVA, Sept. 80 G.N.SO.-
Protests regarding treatment of
Jews in Germany, which have agl-
tated the League of Nations as
sembly since opening of the pres
ent session, took concrete form to-
day with introduction of resolu-
ton calling for a world agreement
against persecution of any creed
or race.
Once again pushing disarma-
ment negotiations into the back
ground, M. Fangulis, Greek inter
national expert who represents
Haiti in the assembly, introduced
the resolution and demanded that
the League sponsor the movement
against persecution.
To Aid Refugees
The resolution reads:
Every inhabitant of every
State has the right to protection
Of his life and liberty.
"All citizens are equal before
the law, without distinction as
to race, language or religion
and all must have the same pO-
litical rights"
While world agreement is pend
ing, Fangulis proposed that the
League create special emigration
office to care for persons driven
from countries where racial or re-
Ggious prosecutions is in progress.
Strong influences on behalf of
Germany were brought to bear
all week in an effort to prevent
M. Fangulis from introducing his
resolution.
GOebbelS, Berenger Lunch
Prior to introduction of the
resolution, which places the Jew
ish situation in Germany Squarely
before the assembly. Jonkheer
A. C. D. De Graeff, Dutch for
eign minister, had asked the
League to appropriate funds to
aid German Jewish refugees.
Meanwhile, rumors of Franco
German disarmament rapproche-
ment spread with the news that

Henri Berenger of France at a
