The Church And
The Community
By REV. jobs. KNUDSEN

Two events happened in our own
county during the present winter
which give rather striking comment
to the circumstances under which we
live. 1t seems incredible that such
conditions should prevail, yet they
have existed within a few weeks and
a few miles of each other.
1. According to County Superinten-
dent A. E. Gustafson, a colony Of
American citizens were di covered
living in the eastern part of the
county in want and privation. They
suffered from lack of food and lack
of supplies. A year ago two children
died from exposure, and this year the
others lived in dire want. They need
food, clothing and medical attention
to say nothing of education and OPP
portunities.
g According to reliable informers,
a CCC camp was recently dissolved
few miles away. When the boys
and their superiors had left with all
necessary supplies and equipment to
go to another camp, a store of materi-
al was still left. 1t consisted of new
and old clothes and equipment in
good condition, amounting to two
truckloads. This was dumped in the
woods, saturated with kerosene, and
burned to the last shred. Insistent
appeals that the supplies be saved
and used for beneficial purposes we're
met with a curt orders must be
obeyed."
The reason advanced for this afro
cious act of vandalism was, that it was
necessary to prevent graft. Supplies
must not be given away, because the
temptation would be great to give
them away for consideration. The
argument may be valid one, but not
for acts such as this. Surely the
most petrified bureaucrat would be
able to find better way of disposing
of superfluous supplies than this.
The incident teaches a valuable
lesson about the nature of military
procedure. In case we, God forbid,
should go to war again, such agen-
cies would take charge of our re-
sources, our industries and our man
power. War and militarism not only
spell suffering and death, they spell
wanton waste. In contrast to human
and Christian ideals of 'brotherliness
and helpfulness they represent a ma
chine whose only consideration is it
self, and which only stops when de-
struction is complete.

CREENBERC CSTARS
 WITH TEMPLAYERS
Former Crosby High Stu- dents Outstanding in
 Dramatic Work

When Templayers gave the pro- duction Might of January 16th" re- gently at Temple University, critics reviewed with favor the portrayal of Peter Greenberg, of Waterbury, as tn eprosecuting attorney.
 At a meeting held last week, Greenberg was one of three students elected, by unanimous vote, to the Temple chapter of Theta Alpha Phi national honorary dramatic organ ization.
 It was during undergraduate days at Crosby High school and Suffield Prep, that he first showed an inter est in dramatics. Upon enrolling at the university he was quickly recog- nized by Templayers and given fav- orable roles in their productions Last year he was appointed chair man of the group.
 Greenberg is a senior in the Marketing Department of the School of Commerce and an active participant in campus extra -curric- ular affairs.
 He is vice-president of Alpha Del ta Sigma, national honorary adver- Using fraternity, member of the In- terfraternity Council, Student Con- mission and Zeta Lambda Phi fra terniyt.
 AS a campus leader he has been identified with numerous drives and campaigns conducted at the Univer- sity and a few months ago helped inaugurate a health aid plan for the coming school year.

Billion-Dollar Church Would Result
 From Unification of Methodist Scots
General Conference to Vote on Plan
 In Birmingham
RH NEA Service


 Birmingham, Ala, April 26-In busy Birmingham, deep in the foun- dation territory of religious rever- ence and zeal, the General Confer ence of the Methodist church con- venes April 28 to vote on a plan of unif1cation which would fulfill the dream of John Wesley, 18th century father of world Methodism.
 Although in his farewell message to American Methodists, Wesley made plea that the church might always remain 8 single, undivided group, the eve of the 1888 General Conference finds American Method ism divided into 19 branches through schisms produced by nearly as many causes. The record of this faith in the United States reads sometimes like thrilling fiction, sometimes like complicated political history.
 On Christmas Eve in 1784, 60 Methodist preachers met in Lovely Lane chapel in Baltimore,S Md, to organize the scattered American fol- lowers of Wesley into 8 united church. The chapel had no stove and the ministers were forced to sit on backless, rough-hewn benches. Yet they remained in session for 10 days in the bitter cold, organized the Methodist Episcopal church, and elected Francis Asbury and Thomas Coke as their first bishops.
 The clippety-c -clop of hoofs on dirt roads beat a rising crescendo of Methodism throughout the Atlantic coast states as early-day circuit rid- CTS spread the gospel on horseback.
The Waterbury Democrat., 1938-04-26

Still standing and perfectly pre-
 served, with its spire' towering
 proudly toward the sky, is the
 Lovely Lane Chapel in Baltimore,
 pictured above, where 60 ministers
 formed the original Methodist
 Episcopal church more than a cen-
 tury and 8 half ago. territory captured by the federal army.
 In 1876, however, joint commis- sion was set up to adjust property ownership difficulties. Later another committee abated home and foreign mission competition. In 1906 com- mon hymnal and order of worship were selected. Finally, in 1923, a plan of uniflcation was approved by the northern branch-but the south- ern branch refused adoption. Two Thirds Vote Needed
 The present plan, drawn up in 1880, has been approved by the northern church, the annual confer ence of the southern church, and the Methodist Protestant church which has always remained inde- pendent. Recently, however, Ten nessee contingents have gone on record against the plan, principally on the contention that it destroys autonomy, results in property loss, and makes Negroes elegible for membership. A two-thirds vote of the General Conference will be ne- cessary for adoption.
 A United Methodist church would have membership of 5000, ,000, mak- ing it the largest Protestant body in America. Its assets would total more than 8 billion dollars. Administra- ton of the church would be under geographical jurisdictions. A uniting conference next year would harmo- nize regulations and combine various agencies.
