Past Year
Is Paradox
In Religion
By JULES LOH
Associated Press Writer
In the realm of religion, mark
down the year 1960 as a paradox
ot turmoil and tranquility.
This was the year of "the reli
gious issue, and beneath the se
rious debate were manifestations
of intolerance and bigotry. It also
was the year Christianity visited
Rome, and overshadowing the of
ficial courtesies was an unprece
dented air of dialogue and unity.
It was the year that gave birth
to a new phrase: "kneel-in dem
onstration"; and the year that
produced the first Negro cardinal.
It was the year swastikas and
anti-Jewish slogans defaced syn
agogues and public buildings; and
the year rabbis preached sermons
in 400 Methodist churches by in
vitation. It also was a year of personal
accomplishment.
John F. Kennedy buried the no
tion a Roman Catholic could not
ie elected president of the United
States. There also were other
names that made news; some of
them familiar, others in the head
lines for the first time:
Eugene Carson Blake, stated
clerk of the United Presbyterian
Church of the U.S.A., who pro
posed a merger of Methodists,
Episcopalians, Presbyterians and
members of the United Church of
Christ. '
Billy uraham, who added a
sixth continent to his worldwide
evangelizing crusade with a 10-
nation Safari for Souls in Af
rica. Archbishop ' Gunnar Hultgcn,
primate of Sweden's Lutheran
Church who abandoned tradition
and ordained three Women min
isters. Aloysius Cardinal Stcpinac of
Yugoslavia, whose death cried out
against Communist injustices as
eloquently as the prelate had in
life.
Lonnie King, 23-year-old More
house College student who led
the first kneel-in demonstrations
in six Atlanta churches.
W. F. Albright, senior editor of
a group of Protestant, Catholic
and Jewish scholars who began
working together to translate
from original manuscripts a Bible
acceptable to all.
Bishop Maurice Schexnaydcr of
Lafayette, La., who announced he
would deny Catholic burial rites
to any of his flock guilty of crimi
nal negligence in automobile ac
cidents.
James W. Wine, Presbyterian
lawyer employed by John F. Ken
nedy to answer questions of reli
gion in the presidential cam
paign.
But no names produced more
startling religious news in 1960
than those of Angelo Giuseppe
Roncalli, Pope John XXIII; and
Geoffrey Francis Fisher, arch
bishop of Canterbury.
Their Dec. 2 meeting in the Vat
ican was the first time the heads
of the two ancient churches had
set down together in 500 years,
and marked the high point of a
year sprinkled with other expres
sions of growing cordiality in the
Christian community.
Earlier in the year the Pope
appointed 11 cardinals to head ad
vance work commissions for his
forthcoming ecumenical council.
One of the posts went to Augus
tin Cardinal Bea, a German-born
Jesuit w hose job it will be to keep

known, even to those members
who can lecall the beginnings of
the Methodist Church in Klamath
Falls. It is known that it came
by freight teams, probably by
way of Ager in California and
was hung in the bell tower of a
church -that once stood at Tenth
and High streets, where the
present church is located. That
church was dedicated in 1907 and
the bell was raised to the tower
the following year.
Soon after the dedication, Mrs
Marcia Mitchell, later to become
Mrs. Marcia Jameson, "in consi
deration of the benefits accruing
to the community by reason of
having a Methodist Church there
in, and the added convenience of
having a bell to notify the public
of its various meetings," felt
moved to provide a bell.
Mrs. Mitchell made a down
payment and, lacking funds
enough to complete the transac
tion, deeded to the church trus
tees the rents from her resi
dence property on the adjoining
location in the amount of $80.
The church tower was strength
ened and made safe for the
heavy bell and for 20 years it
called young and old to worship
when rung by Edmund M. Chil
cole, Sunday School superintend
ent. Its weight threatened dam
age to the church structure and it
was taken down and for many
years has been stored in the
basement of the present church
Upon arrival some months ago
of the piesent pastor, the Rev
Ralph Richardson, who was in
terested in the significance of its
use in the church services, the
bell was brought upstairs to the
street floor hall where each Sun
day it is again rung by Mrs
Sanford Selby to herald the begin
ning of divine worship.
Present plans call for a perma
nent outdoor base where the bell
will be hung to peimit others
than the immediate church fam
ily to enjoy its tones.

of Mrs. M. A. Bowman for their!
Dec. 21 meeting. '
The group voted to give a
check to the church to cover in

The newly elected officers will

in January.

by the members following the

ESSENE REFORMERS
ANN ARBOR, Mich. (AP)-The
Essenes, an early Jewish sect
whom some credit with compiling
the Dead Sea Scrolls, sought to
reform Judaism, according to
Harvard University professor
Frank Moore Cross Jr.
The Essenes were a radical
group who regarded themselves
as the only true Israel group,"
Cross said at a University of
Michigan seminar.
He said the sect "did not stem
entirely from doctrinal differ
ences, - but was engaged in a
struggle for power."
non-Catholic Christian groups in-,
formed of the council's work. The j
cardinal described himself as,
"general liaison officer."
Also in I960 leaders of 171
Protestant, Eastern Orthodox andj
Anglican churches gathered in St. f
Andrews, Scotland, for the 11th i
annual meeting of the World
Council of Churches.
Their chief topic was church
unity, and among other moves
they drew up a code of behavior
which would prohibit proselytiz
ing one another's members. The
code awaits final approval at the
1961 meeting in New Delhi.
What threatened to be the most
divisive episode of 1960 the reli
gious issue .in the . presidential
campaign may result in more
understanding between Catholics
and Protestants. A post-election
survey of church leaders showed
most felt the campaign inspired
discussions provided a foothold for
further conservation which inevi
tably will lead to better under
standing between the two groups.
