UNITY PROTESTANT GOAL Churches Launch Revival Of Consolidation Proposal Smashed By Veto In 1920 m By ED MORSE GREENWICH, Conn., UP) From now on, American Protestants are going to hear more and more about a thing called church unity. For the first time in the history of the country, a day-to-day campaign will be underway to create a single Protestant church in the United States In some fashion yet to be decided. That was the result of the conference on church union which ended here last week after months of preparation and three days of actual sessions. ' The conference didn't rush things it didn't come up with an actual "plan for union," but rath er a "plan for a plan." It wants to make haste slow ly, and remembered 1920 when a completed plan was wrecked by the first veto from a single de nomination. So Instead of a hard-and-fast plan for a Protestant merger, the conference gave its name to a permanent, official organization that will try to find the royal road to unification during the next year and present it at a new conference early in 1951. Seven churches with more than 14,000,000 members sponsored the conference, and seven other churches and the four great inter church councils lent them moral support by sending observers. American Protestantism as a whole has nearly 45,000,000 mem bers. Methodist Bishop Ivan Lee Holt long Methodist struggle for uni fication, was named to lead the conference as chairman of the continuing executive committee. Procedure Outlined Here is how the new machinery will work in pushing the merger idea on a national scale. The Permanent Conference on Union will enlist seven represen tatives from each denomination. The inter-church councils will have two consultants each. This will be the general execu tive body. Under it will be another com mittee with two members from each of the sponsoring churches. Other churches interested in mer ger may also join it. This is the group that will draw up the plan for union. But before any final action Is taken, the conference will send representatives to the many Prot estant denominations. Mergers Contemplated These representatives will lis ten to what the individual churches have to say and carry their words back to the confer IVice on union. All these reports and the ten tative plan itself will be thrash ed out at the next big conference meeting, to be held "in the early months" of 1951. The conference also hopes to stimulate any smaller unification plans already in progress. Examples of these are the re cent merger of the Evangellcan and Reformed churches. This new combined group is now thinking of merging again this time with the Congregational Christian churches. Also, there have been efforts for years to merge Episcopalians and Presbyterians. Opposition Materializes But the path toward unity Is not necessarily smooth. The "plan for a plan" was only a few hours old when one big Council of Christian Churches with 1,500,000 members called it "totalitarianism in the raw." ' "Genuine Protestants must be warned to avoid this union move- "GANGWAY!" That's what the man said . . . So we're closing from Monday, December 19th, to Tues day, January 3rd, so the workmen can make repairt without us underfoot.

"A brand of socialism more en slaving than that cursing Eng land today is advocated by the Protestant leaders afflicted with the current disease of unio-ma-nia," they added. Bishop Holt himself looked for no easy progress. "Those of us who have partici pated in the conference are un der no Illusions," he said. "It may take a good many years be fore we realize the dream of cre ating a larger Protestant church in this country. . .but we are being led in that direction." How To Put UMW Back On Five-Day Week Pondered PITTSBURGH UP) Presi dent Truman and congress may have to face a problem next month how to get John L. Lewis' United Mine Workers back on a five-day work week. , . Pressure is Increasing far the President to invoke the Taft Hartley act. Industry leaders say Lewis has created a national emergency through the four full scale walk outs he's called this year and the three-day week which he has or- dered indefinitely for his 480,000 unuea Mine workers.

Reserves Diminishing The steel companies are start ing to eat up their reserves. They're trying to catch up with the production they lost during the reecnt 42-day old strike of the CIO United Steclworkers. It all adds up to increasing Eressure on the industry and ewis to get together on a con tract to extend the one which expired last June 30. Lewis isn't saying anything. But he's keeping a close watch on efforts of his lieutenants to get independent soft coal ooerators to sign contracts and break away from the solid front maintained by the industry's leaders. Mean while, negotiations are continuing with the anthracite operators who employ about 80,000 miners. 10 Percent Signed UMW officers sav some con tracts have been signed to cover a few of the 400,000 soft coal min ers. They haven't said how many but indicate they have signed op erators who produce about 10 per cent of the national tonnage. Top coal spokesmen scoff at the fig ures. Meanwhile, Industry leaders want the Taft-Hartley act used to get all diggers back into the pits on a five-day week. Former Representative Fred Hartley, co-author of the labor law, also is . plumping for such action. In a speech at Atlantic City, N.
