Salvation Army Continues
Work Started in London
By LOUIS CASSELS
United Press International
Jesus shocked the religious
leaders of his day by associat
ing with bums, prostitutes and
other sinners.
In this respect, as in others,
the Salvation Army faithfully
follows in its Master's foot
steps. 1
For nearly a century, its
blue-uniformed soldiers have
been scandalizing respectable
church folk by beating tam
bourines on street corners,
holding prayer meetings in
jails, and mingling unashamed
with the outcasts of society.
The Salvation Army was
founded by an English min
ister named" William Booth
who felt that the regular
churches were failing to
reach out to the people who
needed them most desperate
ly. In 1865, Booth set up a di
lapidated tent in London's
grubby East End and began
to preach the Christian gospel
to thieves, gamblers, drunk
ards and street - walkers. He
won many converts btit the
churches did not want them.
So Booth put them to work
to save others like themselves.
The Hallelujah Army
Within a few years there
were thousands of them con
ducting open-air services in
London streets. They were
called "the hallelujah army."
The nickname gave Booth
an idea. In 1878, he organized
his fast-growing band along
military lines and gave it the
official title, the Salvation
Army. The following year the
first Salvation Army unit in
the United States was organ
ized by Lieutenant Eliza Shir
ley, an English girl who had
moved to Philadelphia with
her parents. W
Today the Salvation Army
has 16,792 local "corps" and
outposts" in-86 countries. Its
U.S. branch, one of the larg
est, has more than 250,000
members. The national com
mander is Commissioner Nor
man S. Marshall, whose head
quarters are in New York.
The Army S primary uuiu
still the same as it was
when General Booth set up
his tent in London to
nreach the Christian gospel.
But today its ministry to down-
anH-outers includes their phy
sical as well as their spiritual
needs.
Lack Squeamishness
To outsiders, the impressive
fact about the Salvation
Army's far-flung welfare pro
gram is its utter lack of
squeamishness. It helps the
people who need help the
most, and doesn't worry about
getting its hands dirty in the
process..
In more than 100 U. S.
cities, there are Salvation
Army rehabilitation centers
where men who have "lost
their grip on life" are nur
tured back to self-respect and
self - support through work
therapy and counseling. These
centers accept the real skid
row alcoholics who are too
destitute and too disorganized
to get effective help anywhere
else. i
Other Salvation Army serv
ices are almost too numerous
to list.
The Army, for example,
provides lodging houses for
the indigent and for unwed
mothers; camps for slum chil
dren; Christmans cheer for
poor families; conducts re
ligious services for prisoners,
organizes golden age clubs for
the elderly, and sponsors rec
reation centers for service
men. Its help is given solely on
the basis of need. The cynic is
as welcome as the convert.
No Passive Members
There are no passive mem
bers in ,thc Salvation Army.
Everyone who enrolls as a
soldier is expected to devote
as much time as possible to
the Army's work.
Commissioned officers, the
ordained ministers of the
Army, are trained at the four
"cadet schools" in New York,
