The Week in Religion
By Religious News Service

Since 1900 the proportion of in
dividuals in the United States
over IS has nearly doubled. Faced
with this fact, Protestant church
groups are giving increasing at
tention to problems and needs of
the aging.
In st. Louis, Mo-, last week, DR..
Beverley M. Boyd, executive di-
rector of the National Council of
Churches social welfare depart
ment, indicated that while the
churches are showing special in
terest in young peoples prob
lens, they are by no means re-
Taxing their efforts on behalf of
the old.
Speaks to Gerontologists.
DR.. Boyd spoke at the second
International Chronological Con-
Igress. Declaring that religious
groups are giving increasing at
Itention to improving the welfare
of old people, he said: Young
and old alike are of inestimable
value in the total program of the
churches"
According to DR.. Boyd, there
are some $50 to 375 Protestant
homes for the aged in the United
States. The majority are under
direct church or ecclesiastical con-
troll.
The general attitude of church
groups is that much more must
be done for the aging than build
ing old peoples homes. he said
There is a growing emphasis on
the need to give oldsters active
roles in church life and affairs,
to encourage old people to prac-
tice their talents and skills, and
to provide them with opportuni-
ties for recreation and social
activities.
Liaison Suggested.
DR.. Boyd suggested that re-
ligiouS groups cooperate with
voluntary secular agencies con-
cerned with the aged and study
their techniques and standards.

The Week in Religion
Churches Increasing Attention
To Aqed Pensioners Welfare

He also recommended that they
keep abreast of medical trends
dealing with problems Of the
agend.
Other recommendation were
offered by Raymond M. Hilliard.
executive director of the Welfare
Council of New York City, who
said that all churches should COM
bat mental deterioration" among
old people by setting up day
recreation centers for them.
Mr.. Hilliard called upon congre-
cations to use church halls as
daytime centers where the aged
could enjoy recreation.
Another proposal by Mr.. billiard
was that seminaries include in
their curricula appropriate courses
dealing with the relationships Of
the churches to older people and
programming to meet their needs.
At the annual midyear meeting
in Indianapolis the National Coun-
ell of Churches bureau of church
building and architecture, two
leading delegates proposed that
new churches include special
rooms where members over IS
might congregate. They were

Both churchmen envisioned spe-
cial rooms or parlors where old

.or other hobbies, or just sit and
relax in pleasant surroundings,
any time they felt like dropping
in.

TAFT BILL The new bill in various of its features is
strongly reminiscent of some of the municipal
governments of the City of Washington from 1902
to 1871. 1t also in some ways resembles the So
called territorial form of the District government
established in 1871 and abolished in 1874 and
replaced by the temporary commission form which
in 1878, with notifications, was made the perma-
nent form Of government for the District of
Columbia. The present commission form of govern
ment is substantially the same as when it was
created in 1873
None of these forms of local government was
regarded by the local citizens as being satisfactory
and there existed perennially citizen demand for
larger participation in the local government and
