Corrupting movies, eaxy di- Helpiul prohibition, moral gains through woman's suffrage and detrimental results to Chrie tiairtty as an outgrowth of the World war, are features of the re port of the xpecial committee on Christian life and work, submit ted today to the Presbyterian gen eral assembly here. The report Is signed by Rev. Hugh IJ. MacCau ley, I). Il, of Patternon. N. J. t'liurch 4imIm ,jMin "If tha nation should fail," nays the committee, "a faithful church would survive, but if the church should fail the nation would fall also. Summarizing the results of a questionaire addressed to stated clerks throughout the country, the committee finds: "Many home ties were broken by the irar. Many drifted away from thehchurch. New standards of behavlorlare set up. Temptations swarm around the young. The crowds throng the corrupting movies, foreign propaganda is strong, making us cuspicious of our allied. Divorce In easv and in creasing. Crimes of violence are multiplied. The church has her troubles. SEven the lord's Supper reaches only 50 per cent of church members.; In many Quarters the orayer meeting is neglected, the Sunday evening service is failing, and family worship and even reli gion fading from the home. Tide May I In Turning "Dut ot the other hand, the tide seems to be rifing. Converts are being added In large numbers. Our net decrease of 28.715 In 1919 was chanced into a net in crease of! 34.072 in 1920." The committee urges the church to try to save the unity of the home, and holds that family wor ship alone will save the homes in America. It pleads for the pro motion of the unity of tbe churches and says: "Let all the churches of Jesus. Prince of Peace, work and pray that God's blesslnj? may be on LEARN TO DRAW KOUa M4S AMD AfiOCXM, Wt WMi. UUL YOU OUI UnraATio act aooeaxr am rases without ant cost to YOU.

The committee finds: "While recog nizing the value of many of the better films, yet these in a great degree make for evil, and our young people are being seriously harmed by them. Our communi ties are going amusement-mad over movie scenes that defy the decalogue." The committee lament? the poor church attendance and urges spe cial efforts to reach the masses and bring them into church. The committee comments that two out of every' three members received through the front door on confession are thrown out of I the back door by suspension. It j urges better conservation of j church membership. I Religious Live Endangered ! The relation of the ciiurth to J ex-service men is studied. The j committee says: j "The hearts of these men were j exalted to a hifth level of service .and spiritual appreciation during I the.r military activities. Ve should not regard it as remark able or disheartening if there should appear to be something of recession from those heights of unselfish zeal ami sacrificial ser vice, or from the unusually clear appreciation of religious values." Some of the regional results of the committee's survey are ex pressed in brief thus: Alabama Few parents faith ful to infant baptism. Little wor ship a thing of the past. Illinois Steady decline in Sunday school membership. Kansas Church membership at standstill. One-third of churches vacant. Effect of the war on churches unfavorable. Kentucky Better family wor ship and home training. Michigan Itecord gains In membership -and contributions. Minnesota Family altar dis appearing. Threefold gain In con tributions. Mississippi Little community work. Offerings increase. Missouri Few family altars. Good young people's work. Montana Prayer meetings disapoearing. Sunday schools flourish. New Jersey Congregations much disturbed by strain of war conditions, but widespread indi cations of improvement and up ward trend. Oregon Hurt by War. Ohio Sunday schgol decline arrested. . Oklahoma War results det rimental. Great increase in giving. Oregon War influences de pressing and dreadening. Pennsylvania War influences detrimental. Men returning from service have deserted the church that toiled so long and hard for their every comfort in cajnp and field. Tennessee Greater passion for reality In everything than before the war.

May 31 With Atlantic and Pacific fleet air forces mobilized at bases on the two coasts, an intensive program of summer and fall maneuvers Is being planned by Captain William A. Moffatt, director of naval avia tion. Starting with the joint army and navy bombing tests off the Atlantic coast from June 15 to July 15. designed to tent the of fensive value of aircraft against naval vessels, navy fliers will be put 'through several months or stiff exercises. Trans-At Untie Flight Plan Early in July the naval airship 7.R-2 purchased in Great Britain, will fly to this county in charge of an American crew. A great aerial demonstration will mark her arrival. Detachments of sea planes, flying boats and dirigibles will fly far out to sea to meet the big airship and escort her to a point on the Atlantic coast just north of Boston. The ZR-2 will then skirt the coast southward passing over the principal cities to Philadelphia, then proceed to the giant navy hangar at Lakehurst, N. J., and "anchor" to a "mooring, mast." the first device of this kind to be erected in this country. Experts from Great Britain will superintend the erection of the mast which will be a steel struc ture about 150 feet high with a swiveled bridle at the top to which the nose of the dirigible will be moored permitting the ship to swing always nose to wind. The structure will cost about $50.0ao and probably be fitted with an elevator to carry the crew or the dirigible to and from the ground. Fuel Caparlty Heavy After being thoroughlv over hauled, the ZR-2 will undertake a cross country cruise to show the ship to the people. Present plans call for a trip to Chicago and re turn, at least by way of the south ern border of the Great Lakes, and if cities west of Chicago "pro vide mooring facilities the cruise may be extended Indefinitely. The ship can make a round trip to Chi cago without refueling. Basing on Iakehurst. the ZR-2 is to operate along the coast later ind participate in an air fleet mobilization and extensive man euvers and tactical drills, during the fall. Pacific to Have Maneuvers. On the Pacific coast similar maneuvers will be conducted in connection with the Pacific fleet. It is possible a squadron of naval aircraft may attempt a trip "around the rim" of the country from a point in Washington state ' to Maine, during the year, the ! longest airplane cruise ever at- I tempted.
