New York, Feb. l.-r-Charging that "1h comDetitloti and rivalries of evangelical denominations in the Uni ted 8tata have resulted In astounding waste and inefficiency" and that tt per cent of the Protestant churches hare a total seating capactiy of more ttaaa 13.000.000, or three times their requirement, the Rev. Or. Robert Westljr Peach, pastor of a Reformed Episcopal church in Newark, N. J., makes a plea for organic union of 22 national church bodies. Dr. Peach's recommendations, to gether with others, will be discussed by the Interchurch Council on Organic Union which begins a four days" ses sion lu Philadelphia today. The New- ark clergyman is one of 60 composing the Ad Interim committee represent ing various Protestant denominations which was appointed last Decern uer upon an Invitation by the Presbyterian church, to approve a plan for bringing about a merger. In his statement, a minority report, he declared that Pro testants had built perhaps "100,000 superfluous churches at a cost ot 5O0,0,OB0." Too Many (liurt-hea, "If not a single church had been built In the past II years," lis said, "those standing in 10 would accorn Biodate at a single service every Pro testant communicant of the year 191 and every Roman Catholic In our country, baptized Infants Includea, and, besides, every man, woman and tAitd In Canada, Cuba, and Porto Rico and there would stlil be much room to spare. "These 88 per cent of our churches reported over three sitting for every communicant. At the Hume time, the Roman Catholic churches reporting had one sitting for every two and one fourth members a ratio of nenri even to one in our disfavor. The Ro man churches are crowded, ours, on an average less than one-quarter filled for It Is the exceptional church which, at Its principal Sunday service, feat an attendance equalling SO per cent of Its communicant roll." The upkeep and the salaries Inctuent to maintaining services In Protestant churches, I)r. Peach said, "make nec essary the raiding annually of millions of wasted dollars; make necessary, moreover, gruelling efforts to raise this money. Inevitably there has aris en the (Ireat Protestant Order of Men dicant Pastors and Sisters, unincorpor ated. Inevltubly also has followed a widespread defection of church mem bers, weary of continual solicitation to give outright and to buy tickets for suppers, entertainments, bazaars, etc. Not the giving has repelled, In most Instances," continued Dr. Peach, Mr tha American people are generous but the needless culls for uneconomic giving. Burden (irowH Heavy. "Upon members who remain stead fast have fallen the heavier burdens," he said. "This defection also Is main ly responsible for increasing the two out of three empty pews caused by over-churi-hlng to three out of fopr. Let not the pastors and members of exceptional congregations blindly ques tlnn tha general validity of these esti mate. Withal, we have thousand of unsettled communities without a tingle church. In Ohio, for example, the re cent Methodist Kplsoopal survey has discovered scores of townships, six miles square, without a single resident minister. To wicked waste we add woeful Inefficiency, "In our division," Bald Dr. Peach, "our people are groaning under the burdens caused thereby, and under the reproach of Incompetency, not only, but the unchurched manses Ignore our weakened testimony and reject our ap npeal; our problems are multiplied, our fellowship is marred, our Lord Ik dishonored. These are the conditions organic unity Is set to cure." Singh Teaching Sought. The Rev. William II. Hlack, I). D., of tha Presbyterian church, Marshall, Mo., another member of the Ad In terim committee, in a minority report, advocated the line of the terminology uf the United States government for iLsracUirluing the proposed new united church and opposed a "restatement of the fundamental doctrines of Chris fan belief," declaring that "ell evan Ktlical churches recognise and teach that the holy scriptures are the in spired word of Clod and nrs the only ltfaltlbls rule of faith and practice."
