I THE OREGON DAILY JOURNAL 'is SATURDAY, JANUARY 18, ; 1919. PORTLAND, OREGON lire Will 3e Launched Here on Monday enan ew Mext sbvt Movement CHURCH UNITY IS TO BE PUT TO A : PRACTICAL TEST Fourteen Leading Denominations in Campaign to Raise a Fund of $10,000,000. LOCAL CHURCES INCLUDED To Take Care of the Religious, Social and Educational Needs of Returned Soldiers. s One of the biggest advances toward - church unity yet made will probably Vb put' Into effect within the next year, when 14 of the leading denominations will join in a campaign to raise $10,000, 000 for after-the-war emergency needs. Local church leaders have been told of the new plan but it is understood by Charles A. Bowen, secretary of the Meth 'odist Centenary movement for this area, 'and Rev. Boudinot Seeley that the active campaign- in the inter church movement is not to begin until the Centenary and New Era movements are well under way. It will probably be 1920 before any active work is car Tied on. This will be the first instance of con certed action by the national organiza tions of churches to obtain funds for ' their common work. The denominations represented are Protestant Episcopal. Methodist Episcopal. Presbyterian ! Church In the United States of America, : United Presbyterian church. Baptist ' churches north. Congregational. Re formed Church In America. Reformed -:: Church in the United States. United J liuthtran Church of America. Evangeli cal association. United Evangelical " church. Evangelical Synod of 'North America, Disciples of Christ, and Chrls- tlan church. Fvrpoaes Are Stated Rt. Rev. Theodore Irving Reese. Prot estant. Episcopal bishop coadjutor of Southern Ohio, is chairman of the gen--eral committee In charge of the move- - ment. The main purpose In raising the fund is to enable the churches to meet the strain Imposed upon them by the demo biHa'tloiHof more than 4.000.000 men of ' the army and navy. When these men get their discharge papers, they lose the benefit of the work done in their behalf by the numerous organizations wh&se chief function is to care for the troops in service. The churches are determined to put forth their utmost efforts to provide for the reabsorption of this great body of men Into the normal channels of civil life without the, demoralizing effects which have attended large demobiliza . tlons in the past. They aim to accom- " pllsh this not only by spurring the ef fectiveness of their religious ministra tions to the utmost and widening the scope of; these ministrations, but also by social service and educational activities which will have a national range. Still another purpose is to meet the . ' shock resulting from the change of cen ters of war Industry Into centers of peace Industry, so that the workers who are released temoorarilv from Dlants in munition centers will not drift aimlessly 1 " or fall prey to evil Influences, and that .' the communities in which these shifts are taking place will not suffer from ; demoralization. . Tanks Are Enumerated The principal tasks which the churches will perform with the $10,000,000 to be v raised are summarized as follows : , Maintaining additional pastors to as- - -'cist the regular chaplains in ministering . . to pie soldiers and sailors, especially :the sick and those recovering from . wounds. At present there Is only one - " chaplain to each 1200 men. - Providing adequate equipment and workers for local churches in the nelgh- - borhood of ports of - debarkation. In camps and industrial centers. Supplying Bibles and other books, equipment and emergency funds to army - V and navy chaplains during the period of demobilization. - ; Assisting church colleges to readjust '.; '. themselves upon the discontinuance of : the students' army training corps. Providing scholarships for returning soldiers who would not otherwise be r , able to complete their college courses. Assisting in the restoration and ex ... . tension of the Evangelical churches of Europe, especially in the war zone.

The men and women who are coming here are making a tour of the nation and are speaking In 16 of the largest centers. The program which the Presbyterians of Oregon and Southern and Western Washington are to hear at the First Presbyterian church Monday and Tuesday is to be the greatest pro gram ever rendered In a Portland church, according to James F. Ewing, local publicity manager. The aim of this gigantic movement Is to put the money of the Presbyterian church behind their great agencies In one lump sum that will permit a strong unified actiop in any direction which the church may find necessary. Some of the leaders in the church who are to attend this conference are Dr. J. Frank Smith, pastor of the City Temple, Dallas, Texas, and moderator of the general assembly ; Dr. John R. Davles of Philadelphia, secretary of the board of ministerial relief; Dr. John A. Marquis, secretary of the board of home missions ; Dr. W. H.

"The recent world war has attracted the attention of all patriotic men. and women to the enormous value of child hood and the urgent need of conserving the young life of a nation if that nation is to live." says Mrs. Maud Junkln Bald win of Chicago, superintendent of ths children's division ef the International Sunday School association, "and as a re sult there is in every civilized country a great effort to care for the physical welfare of all children In order , that a anuch larger percentage of children born may live to become strong, able-bodied men and women." In addition to strong., clean ' bodies. Mrs. Baldwin aserts - "that every child needs and must have-religious education if he la to become a true citizen of tli nation into ' which he has been born and a real member of the klndom of God on earth. ' Responsibility it Flared ' This task of religious educattohTbr the children bfjongs to' the homes and the" church schools, just as. the tak of secu lar education belongs to the homes and the public schools." That there is a great nAd of arouning the continent to the spiritual -needs of children Is evidenced by the report that about 13.000,000 of the 25,000,000 children under 12 years of- age. are re ceiving no religious education whatever. It is to help change this condition that the International Sunday School as sociation has suggested a contlnent-wlda observance of a, "Children's week," April 27 to May 4, Inclusive. Announcement of these dates reached Harold . F. Humbert, general secretary of the. Oregon association, during ths past week, and Mr. Humbert announced that this plan would be carried out vigorously In all parts -of Oregon, but es peclally In the : neglected areas of ths state', such as the poorer districts of the large cities and the sparsely settled districts of the interior part of the state. . . ' . . Charles A. Staver, president of the Multnomah county association, has ap pointed A. A. Morse chairman -of the "Children's Week" committee for this county and Mrs. J. W. Wilkins as super intendent of the work. The international, association ha printed three sets of booklets for dls-' trlct workers, t superintendents and teachers 'as an aid in this new work.
