Evangelism,

Chairman Gives Conclusions
of City Church
Commission.
BY THE REV. WILLIAM F.
ROTHENBURGER

Pastor Of the Third Christian Church and
Chairman Of the Commission on the
City Church of she Indiana
state Pastors Association.
A generation ago, the city church
was charged with having too lin
tied program, consisting largely of
worship services. 1t was thought to
be unconcerned with community
problems. Its buildings, representing
huge investments, stood idle a large
part of the time.
Whatever justification there was
in these charges, they can not be
truthfully made today. Many
churches are seldom closed. Besides
effective worship, their programs
consist of dramatics. athletics, edu-
cation and many other types of cul-
tural expression. Both ministers
and laymen are taking a prominent
part in the welfare work of the
community. Indeed, the pendulum
has swung so far in this direction
that some churchmen have suffered
spiritual mpoverishment. The pen
dulum must now swing back and be
halted at point of greater balance.
New emphasis must be placed upon
the spiritual, missionary and the
evangelistic elements.
The city church is composed of a
moving procession of people. The
membership is t1uctuating and tho
turnover is consequently consider
able. This is due to the migratory
spirit of the modern city and tn the
consequent shifting of social and
economic tides. 1t is also due in part
10 shallow conception of church
relationships. Therefore. church
membership must be made more
olgnlf1ed and meaningful. II is owl
cent that the influence of a conpre-
gatlon is more dependent upon the
dynamic quality of its program and
membership than upen its numerical
measurements.
"A close analysis of the city church
reveals the fact that some of Ire
program has been completely ont
moded by the changes of the last
generation. The following convic-
lions prevail among leaders: That
each congregation must adapt itself
TO us own field; that the efficacy NJ
us work depends less upon the num-
Der OF It's services than UPON their
power and motives; that a sane
spiritual, evangeliStic and mission
airy spirit should always prevail.
mat the church should not allow it.
sell to be DETECTED from its supreme
purpose, namely, to spiritualize civ
ilization.
Inc commission was unanimous
IN the belief that the average mod
ern city is overcrowded with
cnurches. The two hundred differ
ent denominations and Sects divide
ana dlsSipate the strength of Chris
tlanlty. The inevitable result js
competition rather than co-opera-
ton. While there is still much dog
matism abroad, by far the large ma
lorlty OF Christians are less CON-
cerned about maintaining the de-
nominational status quo than they
are about creating Christian So
cial order. Many leaders are feeling
that cooperation should supplant
competition; that the closer unity of
bodies whose theology and polity
are similar should be encouraged.
and that ultimate organic unity
should be kept in mind.

LABOR LEADER IS
 FOUND GUILTY

Brockton, Mass, March M-(U.P0 In an action believed unprece- dented in labor circles. the Brother hood of Shoe and Allied Craftsmen has convicted one of it's founders on treason charges growing out of the circulation of alleged communicate literature, 1t was announced today.
 The convicted man was Frank Picsco of Brockton, n founder of the union three years ago. q signer Of It's constitution, and former mem Der Of It's general and control boards.
 Union officials withheld comment on the possible penalty pending hearing Monday on similar charges against Salvatore Moscatelli, an- other prominent member. They in- dicated other members might face like action.
 The charges grew out of the cir culation of alleged communistic pamphlets assailing Frank A. Good win, Massachusetts motor vehicle registrar and adviser to the union since it's inception. Goodwin resign ed last week as advisor because of "the communistic element" in the union. Brotherhood officials indi- cated their organization would be "purged" of this element before any action was taken on Goodwin's re- signation.
