THRONGS TURN TO CHURCH IN HOUR OF NEED

Thousands Find Comfort in Worship in Days of Depression. iConUnurd From Page One) to the home of the new acquaintance. or ‘church neighbor * Hundreds of men and women who have the Tabernacle Presbyterian church. Thirty-fourth street and Central avenue, recall the splendid and inspiring visits of the Rev. J. Ambrose Dunk'd What may be recorded of Dr Dunkel may be said as truthfully of Dr Frank 8. C Wicks of All Souls Unitarian church, now in England on his vacation, and of hundreds of other ministers. AH Are Visited Indbnapolis pastors, both Protestant and Roman Catholic are going Into the homes of the churched and the non-churched. Opening of the church door by any member of the church-going cavalcade, whether affiliated directly with any house of worship or not,, means the opening of the doors of as many homes for cheery personal visits from pastors. Many churches are using the “personal appeal campaign ’ every member getting anew member into the church before a city-wide evangelistic campaign starts in the early fall as one of the major steps in the Church Federation program. The Lutheran Evangelical church of the Missouri Synod has a city missionary hospital pastor ’ in Indianapolis.' Just an Idea Indianapolis pastors are being invited to talk at picnics of the employes of large industrial concerns. Mr Fackler spoke at such a picnic recently, and he said: "If the Eli Lilly Company could perfect a spiritual serum which pastors could apply by means of a needle, much could be done. - ’ In talking in his study Mr Fack- i ler contended that ’ liberality in spiritual matters tendeth to a de- , cllne. I think we are getting too liberal in some things." But pastors seem to think that ‘‘being honest with God. we will find God." Blame on Parents "The young people in our church." j Fackler points out, "who do not at- ; tend services are not living in har- j mony with the instructions received, which instruction is based upon Christ's teachings. Their spiritual training should inspire them to church attendance. "I find that too many parents encourage their children to neglect church. They have minimized spiritual matters." Ministers all over the city are delivering sermons of challenge, of inspiration and an invitation for social and community service. As one pastor puts it: "I have ' taken the hell out of my sermons, j They will listen to a sermon that has something challenging, something constructive. I am through ] preaching the graveyard stuff.’ ” Christianity Has Appeal Returning to the study of Bishop Francis of the Episcopal church, wc j hear him say: My own experience ; when I was a boy was that I hated Sunday school. They were poor institutions then and we didn't learn j much. "If Christianity is presented in j the right way. it has an appeal. We just, didn't sit still in church, we had something to do —a distinct! service to render.” Study closely the black and white pen drawing of Berg, the artist, on the editorial page, in connection with this article. You will see the modern elderly couple, the flapper, the boy of today and the people of another day. It's a Great Procession The modern procession into the church today is a repetition in a much larger way than when they went to church in the ox cart, the covered wagon, the horse-drawn buggy and horse-drawn street car. Today the cavalcade arrives at the church door on foot, in busses, in big and little automobiles, in street cars and taxicabs. The echo of the ages that is being heard today—'The people want God." The next article of this series will . deal with the Indianapolis Ministry I of Music and Drama. PAROLE GIVEN PRISONER Marion County Man Gains Release front State Reformatory.

NRA TO RUSH ITS CHECKUP ON ‘CHISELERS’

Maintenance of Peace in Industry Also Big Goal of Chiefs. BY H. O. THOMPSON United Prm Staff Correspondent WASHINGTON. Aug. 10.—Maintenance of industrial peace and a new attack on “chiselers” occupied NRA officials today. The administration was driving forward on another sector in its effort to restore order in the bituminous coal industry’. The main problems facing Administrator Hugh S. Johnson aad his associates were: 1. EfTorts of the national labor board to settle strikes in Pennsylvania and elsewhere. 2. A thorough check-up to see that violators of President Roosevelts re-employment agreements have stopped "chiseling” tactics. 3. Resumption of the coal hearings, with the company union fight nearing a showdown. Lewis to Give Views John L. Lewis, president of the United Mine Workers of America, was to appear during the coal hearings. While discussion of the coal codes continued, hearings were to begin on a far different business, that of the theater. A proposed code up for consideration would fix minimum wages for chorus girs and actors, and set up standardfv of fair practice for Broadway. Hearings also were scheduled for today on a code for the hosiery industry. Strike Hearings Set Dr. Leo Wolman. chairman of the NRA labor advisory' board and actig chairman of the national labor board created by President Roosevelt as an agency to treat with industrial discord, announced the board had assumed jurisdiction over a strike of more than ten thousand hosiery workers in Reading. Pa., and a shirt factory strike in Pottsville, Pa. A hearing on the Reading strike was scheduled for today and one on the Pottsville strike Friday. A shoe strike in Lynn and Boston. Mass., and a necktie strike in Philadelphia also are requiring attention. Johnson Is building up a system for handling complaints against violators of codes which supposedly already are in effect. He is having the most difficulty with retail store operators who attempt to nullify effects of the agreements by staggering hours.
