TTTE ATLANTA GEORGIAN AND NEWS. NEXT YEAR HardertoUnitx Presbyterian Churches I han to Bring I ogether North and South After War, He Declares. . By REV.

But it seems to be more difficult to unite the church than it does to get to gether the citizens of the Republic, j Religious prejudice dies hard. This has been made apparent in sown of the meetings of. the assemblies. But It isn’t altogether prejudice, either, that keeps men apart. It is often sincere devotion to truth, and it of ten happens that both opponents have right on their side. Men change their political faiths far more readily than they do their religious convictions. Churches Working Together. But it 1s still true that men with different religious beliefs are work ing together far more generally than do men with different political be liefs. It isn’t often that the Demo crats and the Republicans sit down to map out a campaign which is to bring neither of them profit nor glory. So you Atlantans who have been smiling at what sometimes seemed like a religious row don't for get that the politicians haven’t come anywhere near the church in unity and co-operation. The Southern Assembly yesterday demonstrated that fact just stated oy deciding to remain within the Fed - eral Council of Churches. .And it wasn't a very easy thing to do. either, for there were many things that hurt when they voted favorably upon the resolution. So strongly did it affect one veteran who has been fighting -the battles of the Lord" that he Im pulsively surrendered his seat as a commission »r. but he showed his real I greatness h coming back in the aft ernoon, repe.-tant. This commissioner has real convictions.” He’s been suf fering on account of them. Prejudice Giving Way. But it has been revealed in the meetings of these Assemblies that every denominational prejudice and all sectarian pa-sion must give way before the spirit of which General Adams spoke—the spirit of the Prince Of Peace. There's no other way. Wxt year wilDundoubtedly see the bringing together into one denomina tion of the United Presbyterian and the Southern Assemblies. Then the Northern Assembly will unite with the Reformed Church of the United States. The plan is already set up. It simply requires a little more time, for such matters can not be rushed. Then, perhaps, some time in the near future all these bodies will get to gether. In many respects the Protestant Churches of the United States are already in one group, working out spme great'problems. Yesterday the Northern Assembly listened to Dr Charles S. Macfuiand, Secretary of the Federal Council. Lie brought greetings from thirty denominations and 20,000.000 Protestants in this country. These groups are working harmoniously. for the building up of a great Kingdom of God in America, and thev’re building fast. Then the Assembly listened to Dr. David G. Wylie! who represented the "Alli ance of Reformed Churches, holding the Presbyterian System of Belief." In this long-named society there are 30.000,000 Protestants. in every part of the world, who believe in the Pres byterian doctrine. And 30,ftf‘ r >.000 Presbyterians can wield some influ ence in the world. They’re doing it. too. but this Isn't a subject the one of them can freely talk about. Sees Church Unity. Other fraternal delegates ppoke '<• the Assembly, each of them repre senting a very considerable group of Christian men and women working >r some part of the globe in the spirit «•; the "Prince of Peace." and most of them expressed a longing for the tim. when "all should be one.” "When I returned the other day. it was in the spirit of the Prince of Peace.” said General Adams. With out fear of serious contradiction, t; * ommiPsioners who to-day close their sessions in Atlanta may say that when another Genera! Assembly—of any of the three branches that haw been here for ten days—meets in this city, it w ill represent not merely one of the thr^e. but all of them. aba ret perform ante near his home kept his family from sleeping. ST. LOUIS. May 23. The Missouri Senate wage investigating committee to-day was surprised to learn from the testimony of Frank J. Sloan, manager of the City Club, a philan thropic organization of prominent St. Louisans, that the club took no in terest in the welfare of its women employees. Sloan also said that the women were paid $5 a week and two meals a day, and that when they were away from work on account of sickness they were docked.

Captain Donaldson declined to answer the charges made against him Chairman Smith himself had little to say except about the evangelistic services. "Among the TOO prisoners in this county are ten murderers and many other desperate characters, who obvi ously make many restrictions neces sary,” he said. "They work hard every day. and when they get through they need a bath and a good night’s rest. To hold religious services at night, after a hard day’s work, would be impractical for the prisoners, im practical for the guards and imprac tical for the other attendants.
