The speaker stated that When the
council was Inaugurated in Portland
only 22 churches co-operated. After
18 months operation there are now
80 churches working together. In
reply to a question from the au
dience, tho Rev. McAfee said that in
his opinion a council would be justi
fiable In The Dalles If four or five
of the nine Protestant bodies were
agreed to co-operate in their activ
itics along the four lines suggested:
Amity, Evangelism, religious educa
tion, social betterment and public
ity. The constitution of the Portland
federation was read and suggested
ns the basis of a similar organiza
tion here. A committee was appoint
ed to consider certain modifications
of the constitution. It was cl-jarly
impressed that co-operative efforts,
would be along lines of common
agreement only, thus comprising no
church. Any church not desiring to
participate in any proposed activity
could ba excused without affecting
membership in the council and with
out criticism. The Integrity of each
church aud pastor as to Individual
convictions would be respected by
the other members.
