Unite Social Forces. New York, Feb. 17. Hundreds of clergymen, labor leaders, socialists, so ciologists and ethical and social work' ere assembled today for the first gen eral conference of the League of So cial and Ethical Forces. Bishop Oreer Is the presiding officer of the meeting, which was called at the Hotel Astor, The new body has been In process of formation for a year and has for Its object the alliance of all the forces In the community which make for right eousness. ' The creed of the new league, which la wide enough to admit to member ship all humanitarians, whether Prot estant, Catholic, Jew or agnostic, is as follows: "This organization was prompted by the prevailing consciousness that the present separation between the forces that make for righteousness in this community Involves great loss of power. By the bringing of represen tatives of the various ethical social In terests into a fellowship of service, where personal acquaintance will be cultivated and knowledge and experi ence exchanged, separation and dis trust will be overcome, and the ethical forces united in the support of meaa ures which command the assent of all."
