7 Protestant Churches
Make Slow Progress
Toward Unification
BY tho Assoeiofed Press

CINCINNATI, Jan. 25.-How
far have seven Protestant church
groups advanced toward a long
sought union?
That question still will bring
q variety of answers after a two
day meeting here of the National
Conference on Church Union.
On the face Of it, 1t would ap-
pear that the move toward a
union of those seven groups is
no farther along than it was when
the meeting started here. The
representatives of those groups
had only a plan of union before
them when they convened.
Vote to Send Plan Back.
Yesterday they voted to send
that plan right back to their ex-
ecutive and drafting committee
and have it all done over again.
Most of the observers said that
the suggestions and proposals
made here were necessary in or
der to bring forth a merger plan
that would meet with the even-
tual approval of all seven de-
nominations-and perhaps two or
three others.
The seven groups most directly
concerned with the merger pro-
posed in the meeting here are the
Presbyterians of the U. S. A., the
Presbyterians of the United States
the Methodists, Evangelical and
Reformed, Disciples of Christ.
Congregational Christians and
the Association of Community
Churches.
Likely JOiners Mentioned.
Considered as likely joiners are
the colored Methodist Episcopal
Church and the African Methodist
Episcopal Church.
It was figured here that those
nine groups have a maximum
membership of 1863 million per-
sons.
The group which met here
agreed-with a dissent from only
one faction of one church-on
the principle Of the merger and
on most of the items In the plan
Of the union.
The one definite protest came
from DR.. Howell D. Davies, execu-
tive secretary of the Committee
for Continuation of Congrega-
tional Churches. He said his group
sis opposed to the present mer-
ger"
A New York Supreme Court de-
cision of a year ago enjoined the
Congregational Christians from
merging with the evangelical and
reformed church" or any other
body or organization whatsoever"

This Thief SpeciaIizes
In Pics Feet, Corned Beef

There's thief in town who has
q big supply of pigs feet and
corned beef for midnight snacks.
Meyer Shulman, owner of Shul-
mans Smoked and Cured Meats
at II I street Sc. reported to
police his place was entered and
100 pounds of the finest grade
pigs feet stolen. The thief. at the
same time made of with a barrel

two main lines. Freight
trains have about 20 cars and
passenger trains Is. Coal for
the locomotives is shipped in
from Japan.
It's gigantic task, for the
list of items that must be
transported over the winding
steep-graded roadbed is long.
1t includes, for example,
troops, light and heavy guns,
ammunition, food, building
materials, serumS, medical
supplies and hospital equip
ment, mail, clothing, gasoline
and oil, wounded soldiers, the
dead, prisoners of war, c.
rations, coal, bridge girders
and timbers, civilian supplies
and mountains of bags of rice.
Some hospital cars have
been taken over from the
United States and some loco
motives from Japan, but, by
and large, the Korean equip
ment has filled the bill.

Corps officers moved back in.
They knew every bridge, every
curve and every switch.
But 1t all has not been as
easy as it sounds. Last fall
the Communists advanced
almest the entire length of
the railroad before they were
turned back. In their retreat
they dynamited bridges and
tunnels and our own Air
Force necessarily bombed rail
centers and bridges in attack
ing the fleeing enemy.
The damage had to be re-
paired In order to maintain
our supply lines. Col. Carr, a
Boston railroad man for A
years, estimates the cost of
the repairs at $50 million, but
the railroad now Is operating
on schedule. It Is manned by
South Koreans under Army
supervision.
They now are operating
about Is trains a day on the
Evening star., 1951-05-20

For a time, the trains were
operated under armed guards
as a precaution against guer-
rilla bands that would Swoop
out of the hills, damage tho
right of way and waylay
trains. The guards now have
been discontinued.
The man behind the gigan-
tic task of keeping the road
running Is Maj. Gen. Frank A.
Heileman, chief of the Trans
portation Corps.
THE Importance of the rail-
road in Korea can't be over
emphasized" he says. There
are $1,000 miles of highway
there, but it is all bad. Conse-
quently, the rehabilitation and
operation of the railroad, in
view of the fact that 1t has
about 5000 miles of track, 239
tunnels and l,724 bridges, in
addition to being subject to
enemy attack, has been an
outstanding job."-W. j. Nj.
