force of unity or the force Of
division"
The meeting will be the most
widely representative Christian
gathering ever held on the Ameri-
can continent.
In range of subjects, purposes
and participation, it may well be
the most comprehensive Christian
assembly ever called.
All things considered, said DR..
Franklin Clark Fry, head of the
United Lutheran Church and vice
chairman of the councils Central
Committee, sit is the most crucial
interchurch meeting in Christian
history"
Fundamental theological ques-
tons, buried through the years in
the ashes of UNCONVENTIONAL cleav-
ages and regional aloofness, will
be raised in the first such broad
attempt to cement Christianity's
scattered forces.
"The assembly will deal with
subjects that 60 to the very heart
of the faith" DR.. Fry said. ''It is
daring thing to do.
'The outcome can determine the
lasting strength of the whole
movement to bring the churches
closer together and increase their
effectiveness"
More than $500 representatives
from 161 denominations with ap-
proximately Ito million members
in 48 countries on both sides of the
Iron Curtain will take part in the
meeting.
DR.. Henry p. Van Dusen, presi-
dent of Union Theological Semi
nary and chairman of the coun-
ciPs us. Study Committee, de-
scribed it this way:
"The most truly ecumenical as
Semblage of the followers of Christ
who have ever met in one accord
in one place in the 20 centuries
since his life and death and resur-
rection." ~
Although the World Council met
once previously - at its founding
six years ago in Amsterdam - it
is digging for the first time into
basic and potentially SCATTERING
orconsolidating-matters of faith.
The present-day "Ecumenical
Movement" aimed at bringing to-
gether the worlds Christian
churches, had its tiny beginnings
at a missionary conference in 1910

Of Christian leaders in Stockholm
in 1925, in Lausanne, Switzerland,

in 1887. In 1913 at Amsterdam it
eliminated in the World Council.
The council does not seek to be-
come a world church, or even to
arrange mergers, viewing that as
tons. But it does seek, said DIR.
Wiser t Hooft, ''to be an instru-
ment of the Holy Spirit for healing
our divisions.
Except for the Roman Catholic,
nearly every major church will
be represented.
Although r o m a n Catholic
churchmen have attended some
previous meetings of World Coun-
ell groups, none viii be present at

Secretary of Agriculture Benson,
speaking before Farmers Day
audience in Warsaw, Ind, this

by hign support prices. He referred
specifically to the rigid support on
the basic feed grain, corn, and the
encouragement of wheat and cot
ton production beyond the demand.
"Artifically high supports for
the basic commodities in the face
of declining demands have resulted
in continued production at levels
far above the market demands, y
Mr.. Benson said 1.-The result" he
continued, "is back-breaking sur
pluses of crops such as wheat and
cotton and the necessity for more
stringent production controls than
most farmers will wish to live with,
year in and year out"
Secretary Benson said he has
recommended that 100000 acres
of wheat, planted under stimulus
of World War II, demanded and
maintained under high price sup
ports," be returned to grass. He
said it costs about 100000 a day
to store the present surplus.

NEW YORK, (GlobaD. : From
Washington comes the news that
new claims for unemployment
compensation have dropped to the
lowest level in eight months.
According to the Labor's Depart
ment's Bureau of Employment Sc
curity, there was a drop of 5000
in new claims in the week ending
June 26, making a total of 265, 900.
This was the lowest. since the week
OF Oct. 81, 1858, when new claims
totaled 234,OO2.
Over half of the state employ
ment security agencies reported
declines in new claims for the
week of June 26. The drop was
caused mainly by a reduction in
layoffs in the textile, furniture,
clothing, mining, machinery and
fabricated metals industries. Also,
there was a continued seasonal ex-
pansion in food processing, con-
struction and other outdoor activi-
ties.
